Mediterranean side
Dora T.

I've been to Market Grill once before but somehow only noticed the American BBQ part. The other day I was yelping Mediterranean food and had to do a double take when it listed Market Grill at the very top. Conveniently located inside Jon's Market, there is a big parking lot but just be aware of people driving in the wrong direction. *SMH* Market Grill is Just to the left when you first enter. You won't miss it as all the wonderful aromas come wafting towards you. There is quite a selection and you can order your kebabs at the same time as your baby back ribs. I ordered #3 which comes with chicken kebab and a beef kebab along with basmati rice, a green pepper and a tomato as well as a small cup of refreshing cucumber salad. We also ordered the baby back ribs with two sides. There are plenty of choices for sides. We chose the potato wedges which I didn't care for because they were too crunchy and the veggies. The portions for both orders are huge and it took us two days to finish them. The meats were cooked perfectly and were so flavorful. You can order by phone but I only had a 10 minute wait on a Saturday night. You can opt to shop in the market while you wait for the order or sit at one of the tables. I was very pleased with my order and will be back to try the other offerings.

What a chicken kabob plate should look like. Not shown is the cucumber salad.

Okay boys and girls, don't waste your money at Chicken Maison or similar spots that give you miniscule chicken pieces on the shishkabob orders. If you truly want the best kabob for your money, come here and enjoy a delicious and Houmongus chunks of chicken kabob. The dish is made to order and the chicken it's absolutely juicy, tender and flavourful. The order comes with a generous portion of basmati rice, a huge tomato and pepper plus a side cucumber salad. I've been here before and other dishes such as the tri-tip, the chicken, the chicken skewers, the lentil soup, the potatoes have all been amazing. One order is sufficient for two people at a minuscule price. This grill is inside Jon's Market. It definitely does not disappoint. There are tables if you want to eat there and you don't mind the ambiance of not being a regular restaurant but you will be glad that you came to eat all of this amazing food.

Located inside Jon's market, I had no idea that this place existed until our friends catered chicken and beef kabobs and veggies for our group gathering. The portions were big and everything was cooked well and tasted delicious. I've also had their tri tip and it's always cooked perfectly for my taste. Love this place!!

Located inside Jon's Market, you can choose traditional American BBQ or Middle Eastern food. Just like everything at Jon's, the quality is excellent and there's something for everyone at Market Grill. You can take out or order at the counter and dine-in. I usually order and then shop a little before picking up my order. Of course, I ordered the Chicken Koobideh. It came with, interestingly enough, a large corn muffin plus a delish cucumber condiment salad. Yum! The only thing missing was the garlic toum which I did purchase separately from the actual grocery section at Jon's. I would definitely be back again. Parking in the large lot.

I love stopping by here when I get the chance! Fast, affordable, delicious and so many options. Everything is well seasoned. I haven't explored the b.b.q. side besides their chicken but everything to the left side is delicious! The picture shows a drink with their combo but they don't have drinks, ever. You're paying for the plate itself. They should at least reduce the cost since there's no actual drink included or remove the drinks from the photo. @makeMePrettie Highly recommend! Try different things when you're there!

Located inside Jon's Marketplace on 190th street in Torrance is Market Grill. Market Grill offers both Mediterranean cuisine and American cuisine. On the Mediterranean side one can get a variety of kabobs, lentil soup and basmati rice. One of my favorites is getting the Mixed Koobideh with Cali Rice and Dill and Fava Bean Rice. I love their different basmati rice. Typically combos just come with plain basmati rice but you can pay an extra $3 and get the special basmati rice that has veggies or other topings. The extra $3 is a tad pricey but the special basmati rice such as the Dill and Fava Bean rice is so good. It is a meal in itself. The American side is called the Smokehouse and they offer different bbq such as tritip, bbq ribs and sausage. The meat is so tender. You can pair the meats with a variety of sides such as creamed spinach and potato wedges. Prices range from $8.99 lunch specials to mixed plates for $16.99. The prices are fairly good and you get a ton of food. They also offer specials of the week which can be found in their weekly ads. I love getting lunch here after grocery shopping at Jon's because the food is fair in price and great in taste.

Just tried their food for the very first time yesterday. All I have to say is yum yum. Ridiculously good. Good portions. Excellent prices. Huge selection. What else can you ask for. Beef & Chicken Koobedeh Combo $12.03 including tax. Opted the salad instead of the rice

So good! Who would've guessed that a grocery store deli style Mediterranean/Smoked BBQ meats place would be so good? I don't have pics of our food cuz we ate it so quick! Was looking for some Mediterranean food around where I was driving and came across the yelp reviews here. Granted there aren't a lot but they are all high. I decided to give it a shot and we ordered the beef koubideh plate, the chicken koubideh lunch special (a good deal) and the chicken kebab plate. Everything was deeeelish! I also ordered 2 lbs of their smoked baby back ribs and 1 lb of smoked tri-tip (sold by the pound or as dinner combos with sides) to bring home for dinner. The meats were really well done! Even after reheating they were tender and the flavor was such smoky goodness. Their bbq sauce tasted homemade it I really liked it--it wasn't too tangy or too salty. Would definitely order from here again!! We did have to wait for them to cook the lunch food but we just shopped around the Jon's marketplace!

I wanted to follow up my very short review that I wrote about this restaurant over a decade ago as I have continued to frequent this restaurant and I have always enjoyed their food. What they offer here is a really nice selection of Mediterranean-based cuisine. They always use the best ingredients, and the food always arrives with a great presentation. Mostly, the food here tastes very-very good. And, isn't that the right reason you actually go to a restaurant in the first place? This is a family-owned and operated business. From this, you can really tell that everybody who works here really cares about the restaurant and the customers. Thus, it's always a great dining experience. Their menu offers a really nice selection of everything from gyro's to kebabs onto salads and the like. There's a really nice choice of both entrées and side dishes for you to choose from. The one thing I will say about this establishment, and this is certainly not a criticism, but whenever you eat here, they always keep the food coming. Whether it is the pita chips, the pita bread, the whatever, when you leave here you are going to be very-very full. This restaurant is located just off of Hawthorne Boulevard and a block from PCH. Thus, it's very easy to find. In terms of parking they have a parking lot over to one side of the building. You could always find a spot there. They also have a number of spots on the street, in front of the restaurant. This is where I always prefer to park. Easy in, easy out. Overall, if you're looking for some great Mediterranean-based food, this is the place to go. You will not be disappointed.

Food was great, a bit different than other Middle Eastern places but delicious…read more Service was outstanding, from the nicest owner to the staff. We ordered the lunch specials, the steak kabobs. I ordered extra salad instead of the rice. The baklava was delicious! It's a very welcoming atmosphere, almost feels like you are a guest at a nicely decorated house.

It's been a long week and I needed some comfort food. I was in the South Bay this weekend and…read moredecided to look for a place to get a good gyro. I dropped by on a Saturday afternoon, where a few other patrons were already dining. The seating has around 6 or so tables inside that can fit around 4 each, and they also have high chairs for children! I ordered a number 17, which is the gyro, and got a side of hummus and pita then found a table to sit at. I had just finished buckling my child into the high chair when my order was delivered to my table! They are super fast here! The super friendly waiter delivered my meal, and I dug in. The gyro was stuffed with meat! This is a huge deal, since a lot of places skimp and don't give enough. So extra points to Al Hamra for a job well done. The flavor of the meat was juicy and well seasoned, super delish! The hummus and pita was good, although I usually add a bit of spices to my hummus so this one was a little plainer than I'm used to. Either way, it was a nice addition to the meal. The grand finale were the desserts! I usually go for baklava, but decided to try the knafeh, a layered cheese dessert with syrup and pistachios. Get the knafeh! The warm cheese and syrup were so delicious and made for the perfect ending to a good meal! I will definitely be back, the food was super tasty, and the people working there were friendly and helpful. Thanks for the happiness, Al Hamra!

Our group of four adults and two kids came in starving. I had the chicken kabob wrap, which was a perfect burrito-sized meal, while my husband enjoyed a beef and chicken kabob plate that fully satisfied his appetite. Honestly, the highlight for me was the warm pita served with garlic mayo, so much better than the cold or room-temperature pitas you often get at otherMediterranean spots. We also shared dessert, the kulfi cheesecake, and left completely stuffed. Al Hamra is a cozy family-run restaurant with just a few tables, but the food makes it well worth it. I'll definitely rotate between this spot and Chicken Maison for future visits.

The baba gannouj lacked its signature smoky flavor, the hummus was disappointing, and the pita was cold and thin. Additionally, the garlic sauce was not to our liking, and while the beef skewer had a good texture, it was under-seasoned. We were also told that potatoes were unavailable because the fryer was being cleaned. Regarding the service, we waited 30 minutes for our order. When I checked on the status after 20 minutes, the counter staff informed me it would be brought out when ready. However, 10 minutes later, our number was called and we had to collect the food ourselves for dine-in. There was about 4 people eating there, but I saw many to go orders go while where there(maybe the reason for the slow service). very spacious and the tvs where nice to have with low volume so you could have a conversation without yelling. I have previously visited your Compton location and found the food there to be delicious, so I hope this feedback is helpful for maintaining that same standard at this location.
