Shawerma Beef and Chicken
Michael T.

First time here and the food is amazing. The bread is fresh and the beef is tender and tasty. We also had the rice pudding and it was fresh and delicious. Staff is friendly. Plenty of parking outside. The seating is a little small but I would come again.

Chicken Doner Pide
Shirley W.

Stopped by here for lunch, honestly the setup lowkey reminds me of Subway lol. Seats available for eating in since it wasn't too busy, or it's also one of those places you just wanna grab and go. I got the Chicken Doner Pide and my bf got the Mixed Doner Wrap. It didn't take too long for assembly and preparing, service is quick! First look, the portion is quite huge. I was only able to eat half my sandwich lol. So I got to save the other half for another lunch! The flavors were pretty good! The peppers were pretty strong in spice, which was a pleasant surprise as well. The pide is essentially a sandwich, so the bread was also perfectly toasted. Overall, very solid spot! I never had something like this before, so it was a nice place to try.

I took a friend here that lives in HB. We were going to go to Ocean 48 in Fashion island. I suggested we go here and save $500.

Another night of take out and decided to get some Turkish food! The parking is always challenging but somehow we always find a spot. The restaurant itself is clean. The staff very friendly. We love their breads even when we don't get a meal but we were set for a meal this round. I ordered the beef doner plate with the sauce on the side. The meat was freshly trimmed and the plates are always overflowing. They don't skimp on portions at all. As always the flavor is just what I was looking for. Delicious!

Ikram Grill is a Fountain Valley staple for Turkish food. I stopped by on MLK Day for lunch and there were a lot of people coming and going, most of them taking it to go. I know they're famous for their shawarma so I opted for the beef doner pide which comes with an insane amount of meat all packed between flatbread that's put in a panini press after you decide which toppings you want. I got everything except pickles and the sandwich was near exploding. However, the meat was a lot tougher than I thought it'd be, considering it looked so juicy. I also got the mixed doner plate for my brother which is why I know the chicken is better than the beef. It was surprisingly more tender and flavorful. I chose a dessert based on the worker's recommendation and she said her favorite was the triangle baklava, I think. It wasn't the most popular one but since it was filled with cream it added an extra depth to the crispy phyllo dough. It was pretty empty inside since the workers efficiently got everyone's orders out quickly.

Great food and super friendly. Used to come a lot during HS but it's been a while. Got the mixed plate although I think I like the chicken better here. Added oil and vinegar to salad which I recommend. Extra onions. Their desserts look good too so gotta come back to try

After a long day of softball we tried Ikram Grill and it did not disappoint. Food was fresh, hot, and full of flavor. Restaurant was nice and clean. Employees were very helpful. We ordered the 3-Chicken Doner Wrap, 7-Chicken Doner Pide, 10-Beef Doner Plate, and the 17-Beef Ikram Special. Everything was solid. The meat was cooked just right, seasoned well, and portions were really good. The #10 beef doner plate was probably my favorite simple but really tasty. The Beef Ikram Special with fries definitely hits if you're hungry. Overall, really good spot. I'll definitely be back

Pistachio Baklava

The chicken wrap today really hit the spot today and it was huge! The sauces were amazing and the pickled onions/fresh veggies balance the tender chicken really well. I went before lunch so service was fast and easy. Casual place for workers on their lunch breaks to grab a hearty meal. Great food and very reasonable prices.

#5 with everything

True hidden gem! This place is amazing. One of the best Turkish restaurants I've been to. I'm a big fan of their number 6 Beef Donet Pide. A pide is a round flat bread. For the sandwich, they slice it in 2/2, and then fill it with all of the meat in my case beef or you can do beef and chicken or just chicken. Ask for a sample to try and see which one you like. They also do a falafel, however, I found it to be a little bit on the dry side but flavorful. They also do a wrap or simply a plate. They also have some specials where they put the meats and sauces over french fries. That seems to be very popular. It's actually kind of like a Chipotle in the way that you order at the counter and pick which ingredients you want. If you like sweets, they have homemade delicious rice pudding among other Turkish treats. Some of these items sell out early so show up right before lunch to have the best selection. This is a go-to place for me at least every two or three weeks and never disappoints! They are extremely consistent and they have great service with friendly staff.

Their sandwich is delicious! I got the chicken and beef combination sandwich. I'm not a big fan of having a lot of veggies in my sandwich, but this place has the freshest and best quality ingredients! Their meat is seasoned very well and quite tender.

Amazing hospitality and food! It's so hard to find proper Turkish food in Orange County because everyone uses doner/shawarma interchangeably even when it's not actually Turkish. Anyway, my boyfriend and I both ordered pide sandwiches, one mixed and one beef, and they were DELICIOUS. Massive portions too, the pictures I added don't do the size justice. Meat was well seasoned with the proper spices for Turkish flavor profile. Bonus points for having fresh bread as an option for our sandwiches, and being able to customize toppings. The veggies were fresh and they have so many delicious sauces, including hummus- to dress your sandwich. We were so stuffed halfway through our sandwich & my leftovers were enough for a large snack later on in the day. Aside from plates, wraps, and sandwiches, they also offer Sutlac, various phyllo and katayifi pastries, lentil soup, etc. Ikram Grill lives up to the hype, and even commuting all the way from Buena Park, we thought it was 100% worth it and would absolutely come again.

Combo wrap in foreground and combo pide in background, Carrot Slice Baklava and Pistachio Kadayif in the middle
Dan C.

A small, quick doner stop with a straightforward menu. Choose a protein (beef *loaded* with lamb fat, chicken, or falafel), a vehicle of delivery (wrap, pide bread, or French fries), and inhale. Counter service is fast and succinct, just tell them what number on the menu you want and what toppings to not put on, and let them work their magic. It's a small and narrow eatery without any frills, but it really doesn't need any. We wanted to try both meats so we got a combo wrap and a combo pide. Everything was delicious but when we come back I'm definitely getting a beef pide, it's super fatty and juicy and flavorful and much more filling than the wrap. Veggies and sauces were tasty and gave the right amount of lube; I'm not big on onions but their pickled onions were sweet and not too powerful. The baklava were delicious, the kadayif was crispy and sweet without hurting your mouth, and the carrot slice baklava was almost oppressively sweet but hit the spot. It's overall an unassuming spot good for a quick informal meal. 1000% worth checking out, we'll be back regularly. I'm curious about the sodas and yogurt drinks in their cooler I've never seen before.

Beef doner on the special bread was amazing! I let them choose the sauces and I got it dressed with everything! Service was friendly, I only wish they had a spot closer to me.

I can confidently say this is the best ćevapi I've had in California! The food is always fresh, flavorful, and prepared with care.

The Shopska salad is incredibly fresh and delicious, the ćevapi are absolutely outstanding, and the baklava is the perfect way to finish the meal. These three dishes keep us coming back again and again! What makes this place even more special is the people. Everyone is genuinely friendly, warm, and welcoming.

It's not easy to find authentic Balkan food in California that rivals what you experience in the Balkans themselves, but this place absolutely delivers.

But I have dined at the Costa Mesa location last year and the flavor of the dishes were great! I remembered the filet mignon and fries dish was amazing with great flavors - today, there was something missing. The depth of flavor with this dish wasn't 100% there! It lacked flavor. The other dish I ordered was the beef and mushrooms! I remembered I enjoyed this dish a lot the last time I order at South Coast plaza location! It was made with rib-eye and it had a nice bite and flavor to it. Today, the menu called this beef and mushrooms and it was flavorful except , the tiny pieces of beef (not even rib-eye quality) was barley there! It was almost like a vegetarian dish with lots of mushrooms and onions and a little sprinkle of chopped end carne asada leftovers. It was VERY disappointing considering this dish cost $23 (up from $19 last year and it was made with quality rib-eye steak with a good bite). To the manager who is reading this feedback - please do better with the quality. Your name is your reputation and if you want returning customers, keep the quality of your dishes since you have already raised the prices on the menu. The beef and mushroom dish is not cutting it for $23 with barley any meat in the dish, it was more like minced, small finely diced pieces that has no bite or chew to it. And the filet mignon just lack a bit of flavor and quality. It used to be a lot more tender. 2 stars because the waiter was nice and took my dish away and took it off the check, since I wasn't really eating it; but, still didn't really offer any comp for something else to fill my tummy. It's ok, I wasn't looking for a free meal, but it would have been a nice gesture to offer a replacement on the house since the dish was disappointing and I didn't get to enjoy or eat my meal that I planned to chose this place for lunch.
