    What a surprise finding this whole in the wall at midnight on a Sunday night! We were looking for a late bite after a concert and wanted to try something different. The photos don't do it justice but yall got to get this dharma and fries! It hit every note of wanting something hearty, flavorful, and fried. It even came with a drink and side of pickled veggies! I'm so glad I decided to try something new. Come by y'all!

    I tried the shawarma at Kimo and it was really good. Tasty, fresh, and the service was fast. I'll definitely come back.

    One of the best shawarma wraps i've ever had. This place will blow up soon forsure, i'm glad to have tried it early on. Real hidden gym. Great service, the meat is flavorful and tender, and the combo plate comes super loaded with fries and veggies. Will be coming back 100%

    Kimo Shawarma is by far the best shawarma in town! The flavors are incredible, the meat is juicy and perfectly seasoned, and everything tastes so fresh. Every bite is just amazing. Definitely a must try if you love authentic shawarma! He's very generous and clean.

    Little gem, you can smell it from outside. Its tucked away inside Al Baraka Restaurant. Yes it's legit, had both chicken and beef shawarma, comes with tahini, garlic dip, you can sit inside and outside. They were so quick to make and serve our food, the wrap is thin the meat was lean, servers were all helpful. You can also order from both menus, fresh mint tea too.

    The food is authentic and so good! Shwarma is super flavorful. My friend and I came out here in the middle of the night on a Shwarma craving and it was the best decision ever. The owner, Kimo, is so nice and welcoming. Can't wait to come back here again!

    Beef/Lamb shawarma combo

    I've been coming to this spot for a couple of months now and I completely forgot about giving this restaurant a review till now. The food is a 10/10 and easily the best bang for your buck. I remember when I first came to eat the food after finding this spot randomly on google maps, the man running the front was very welcoming and friendly. I remember talking to him and he told me he works every night, so right off the bat I could tell that he is a hard worker who cares about his restaurant. This place is open till after midnight which is something that is quite rare and a blessing. If you're ever in the area or looking for a good place for shawarma then you should definitely check this place out.

    Shawarma!

    Best shawarma in town. Epic stuff. Garlic paste better than the one my mom made Would highly recommend this place.

    Food is always so good and flavorful! Lots of spices and a variety of flavors- salty, savory,…read morepickley... they have it all. They also have sweet treats like mango lassi which is also good and cooling after the spicy food. Being 100% honest, the people make the place even better. Every time I've come in, the people working are so generous and hospitable- offering insight and even samples for their food. The inside is also super nicely decorated and the music is "vibey" too (my bf's exact words). They moving locations to Garden Grove, but I have no doubt that their new location will be just as amazing (and probably more amazing as well). Anaheim will miss you so much!!

    WOW!!! I love everything I tried here - so flavorful and delicious! First time trying Pakistani…read morefood!! It's been a while since I'm so happy with my whole order when dining out! Premium combo = entree + $10 Entree + premium drink + masala fries I tried the bowl with mild biryani, malai chicken, green (mild) sauce, and guava mango lassi. The bowl already comes with the raita sauce (a yogurt sauce), so I got the green sauce as my choice of sauce after asking the staff for recommendations. The protein portion was super generous and very well-seasoned with their spice. The green sauce was my favorite and everything in the bowl mixed well together. The whole bowl was delicious and it didn't feel heavy, wasn't greasy. The Kashmiri Chai and the guava mango lassi are the most popular drinks, so I decided to try the guava mango lassi. The flavors blended so well. One wasn't more overpowering than the other, and the sweetness level was perfect for me, also, not too much ice. Masala fries So crispy and well-seasoned!! Could be a little less salty. Gulab jamun cheesecake Also asked for recommendations for their cheesecakes and decided to go with this one. It has the fried donut ball in the middle with syrup. It didn't taste too sweet to me, but I also have higher tolerance for sweets. The center has so much of the cheesecake cheese and it was super soft and fluffy. So delicious! The samosas were also great! Crispy and not too oily. I also love that they use compostable takeout containers, including the lid! The interior looks nice and there are a few seats available. There's outdoor shaded tables and seats too. The only downside is that I wish the outdoor seats were a bit cleaner. There is a free parking garage, just make sure to park in the retail spaces. There was enough parking. The staff members are so helpful and very friendly. Can order with a staff member or using their kiosk. HIGHLY recommend!! Would definitely go back!

    Growing up in Hong Kong ,…read more lamb wasn't something I ate very often. It wasn't until I moved to SoCal that I discovered all-lamb restaurants like M Joy. It's basically a dream come true for lamb lovers -- almost every meat dish on the menu is lamb! This popular halal restaurant specializes in Xinjiang-style lamb dishes. The lamb rib with rice was incredibly tender and practically fell off the bone. The grilled lamb shank and grilled lamb ribs are also must-orders if you love bold, flavorful dishes. And don't miss the lamb skewers! They come in both spicy and non-spicy options. One thing that really surprised me was their classic sweet tea. They also have a salty version... but we definitely went with sweet. Oh, and you can request extra side dishes and soup too! Definitely come hungry. IG: socalhkfoodies

    Came on a Sunday around 12pm and there was no wait. We were seated immediately…read more == FOOD == Our table of 4 shared 2 plates of the lamb rib/shank dish (one spicy, one non-spicy). We also got the Hokkaido Milk Tea and a Hot salty milk tea. We also got 3 lamb skewers! The rice of the plates was savory and salty and paired well with the lamb. The carrot side dish was very delicious. == SERVICE == We order through the QR code at the table. Staff are very quick to bring utensils and water to the table. Food came out pretty quickly as well. == AMBIANCE == Quite a small store, seats around 26/28 people. There is indoor and outdoor seating.

For two, we ordered the "individual portions" of Mandi Chicken (young chicken roasted with Yemeni spices) & Lalamb Haneeth (a roasted young lamb that falls off the bone). These were both served over a large platter of Mandi rice and came with Yemeni sauce and yogurt. It was expertly made, yet still gave us the warmth of a homestyle meal. The generous portions resulted in a second meal for me! On a Tuesday night, this place was quite packed with friends and families. It seems like wonderful place to host parties or business meetings. Someone nearby us had a birthday, and a group of staff came out with a dessert, blasting a traditional birthday song over the speakers and encouraged the whole restaurant to clap along! Despite the large gatherings, the restaurant is a no-reservation spot. They have a covered patio outside to seat an overflow of customers in case. Thankfully, my boyfriend and I were seated right away. They had a contactless menu, and we scanned a QR code to check our food options, but a server took our order and offered great recommendations once we waved him down. I would love to come back and try other dishes, like their grilled chicken or lamb--as well as the desserts and teas !!
