    menu food
    Bethany L.

    the quality and customer service care at Meymuni was amazing! the GM (i believe Shiraz) was so helpful and guided me through the menu, as well as offering samples for the lavashak as I was unsure which shake to get. I also had a worrisome encounter with individuals outside and he offered to/helped me when I was leaving to make sure I was safe. As I waited for the food, waters were brought over and I saw him do the same for other guests. Inside is also super clean and quiet, great place for studying. The mamani wrap doesn't skimp on the beef, and its wrapped in a persian seeded flatbread with pickled onions and potato salad. comes with a refreshing yogurt sauce. Lavashak smoothie is supposed to be tart, with pomegranate, strawberry, and peach. Will definitely come back to try the date tahini shake and the spicy wrap he recommended! A bit pricey but the quality and service makes this place worth it.

    Meymuni is a standout new addition to the Persian food scene in Los Angeles exactly the kind of place this city needed. The space is bright, casual, and welcoming, serving elevated comfort food with thoughtful modern touches. What immediately sets Meymuni apart is its carefully curated selection of Persian snacks and drinks. From nostalgic favorites like lavoshak (sour fruit roll-ups) to doogh (yogurt-based drinks), the menu beautifully balances tradition and creativity. While the lavoshak smoothies are what initially put them on the map, the full menu offers far more omelets, sandwiches, soups, baked goods, and inventive takes on classic Persian salads, all made with fresh, high-quality ingredients. I ordered the Mamani: mortadella with salad olivieh (Persian potato salad) tucked into fresh lavash. The fresh herbs, crisp pickles, and a side of mast-o-moosir (shallot yogurt dip) made it nostalgic yet elevated. My aunt enjoyed tea and baked goods that were incredibly fresh and delicious. Even my picky dad ordered their omelette and absolutely loved it, which says everything. The service was warm and genuinely kind, and the food was consistently fresh and flavorful. An added bonus: easy parking in the back, along with both indoor and outdoor seating. They also host occasional events like comedy nights, giving the space a lively, community-centered feel. It's also a fantastic venue to hire for your next party or private event the layout, energy, and atmosphere make it ideal for gathering friends and family in a warm, vibrant setting. I was lucky enough to meet the owner, Shaahin, who is clearly destined for great things. As an LA native who grew up eating mortadella sandwiches at old-school spots along Westwood Boulevard, I can say those places still exist but they don't quite capture the vibrant, inclusive energy that Meymuni does so effortlessly. Shaahin has created a space that feels modern yet rooted in tradition expansive yet intimate. If you love Persian food made with fresh, quality ingredients and appreciate a space that feels both nostalgic and new Meymuni deserves a spot in your regular rotation. I'll definitely be back to try one of their famous lavoshak smoothies next time.

    Impressed! We found this safe after golfing close by. A little over priced for what you get by the wrap was good and the service was great.

    The hummus dip girls
    Ari D.

    Meymuni Cafe is such a hidden gem in West LA. It has that perfect boutique feel -- stylish, cozy, and thoughtfully designed, while still keeping that authentic Persian charm. I came here with a small group on a Sunday afternoon right after the Iran protest in Westwood, so we were already in a very Persian mood -- and the atmosphere matched it perfectly. There were others from the protest there as well, which created a strong sense of community. There was even a woman offering free samples of delicious Persian baked goods, and two girls promoting their hummus dips, which made the whole experience feel lively and fun!! Food-wise, I tried the Mamani, which is like a Persian-style bologna sandwich with potato salad, pickles, and red onion on sangak bread...super unique and very satisfying. I'm already curious to come back and try the Barbari Tunacado next! The service was friendly and welcoming, and the overall vibe just felt warm and inviting. Parking is free, which is a big plus, but a little tricky to figure out at first. You have to turn into the driveway, and the gate appears closed -- we initially thought it wasn't accessible. Thankfully, someone from the staff let us know that you just need to pull your car up close to the gate and it will automatically open. A small sign would definitely help make that clearer for first-time visitors. The building also has a slightly industrial look, so better signage could really help highlight this local Persian gem. Overall, if you're looking for a Persian spot that feels modern, community-driven, and a little different from the usual, Meymuni Cafe is absolutely worth checking out. Highly recommend!

    Cute cafe with a modern Persian twist. The inventive Lavashak smoothie is just as sour (but delicious) as expected. Appreciated that the wraps all came with a small side and a sauce. Kind of random location but it's cute and clean on the inside. The owner was very friendly, greeted us with lavender oil and checked in on us a few times to make sure we were satisfied. We saw him checking in on all the patrons, so bonus points for customer service. Good lunch spot

    Anjeer latte
    Charlie N.

    Was looking for a place to pop in to do some work while I had a few hours to kill before dinner with a friend, and came across this place. And it did not disappoint. PARKING: FREE parking, but very easy to miss. If you're heading southbound on Sepulveda, turn RIGHT after the bus stop. Like immediately. If you see the Metro parking, you're too late (learned that the hard way having to turn back twice to find the parking). After parking, look for the signs pointing you to F45/Meymuni. Go straight through that door, even though it's somewhat blocked by a table (don't turn left into the leasing office like me). WHAT I ORDERED: Anjeer matcha latte THE DRINK: This was so delicious! The unique flavor combination was what caught my eye - I was very curious about the fig cream. It ended up having a nutty flavor that went really well with the matcha. It was lightly sweet, though I wish the flavor was a bit stronger. The matcha part tasted okay - I wish it was stronger, especially given the cream top, but that's just my personal preference. SERVICE: Super fast and friendly. VIBES: Amazing. Lots of open space, and they sell additional snacks and products on the side. It's next to an F45. And perfect for getting work done or studying. Here's my work-from-coffee-shop checklist: * OUTLETS: Yes, pretty much at every table hugging the wall * WIFI/INTERNET: Yes, pretty good speed * VOLUME: Music was a bit loud so would probably be distracting to take a Zoom call, but okay for work or chatting with friends * SEATING AVAILABILITY: Went on a weekday afternoon and there were only two other groups besides me * BATHROOMS: Yes, very clean * LAPTOP FRIENDLINESS: No restrictions I saw BOTTOM LINE: I will definitely be back next time I'm in the area and need to get some work done. I'm very curious about the smoothies and protein shakes since the flavors look pretty unique.

    Spicy chicken
    Jira W.

    Great concept idea, average food... We got two different wraps but nothing stood out or telling me Persian. The meats were bland and the chicken has little spices. The wraps are $18 with no side is pretty high in my opinion. I really like that the restaurant is spotless clean and very peaceful among the traffic in the area.

    Mamani Sandwich
    Jessica T.

    This cafe is a hidden gem! The barista was so sweet and attentive, even asking if we wanted water once our sandwich was ready. The entrance is a side gate by the Culver City bus stop, and you simply ring the doorbell to be let in (which they're very quick about). There's plenty of seating, and the food is amazing! We got the Mamami sandwich and the the Torshaki smoothie. Both were AMAZING, the smoothie was very fresh. 10/10 would recommend as a study spot or a place to grab a quick bite!

    Spicy chicken wrap
    Adrian M.

    My friend found this cafe on Franki app and we tried it for breakfast. The staff is very friendly! The place is very clean. The outside is a bit odd considering the area. We both had the spicy chicken and salad wrap. Mine was perfect blend of spice, my friends was a bit too spicy. It has too much bread ratio, which we left some of it. Overall very tasty.

    Cute receipt
    Arturo M.

    I really wanted to love this spot and was excited after finding it on TikTok, but my first visit left me a little conflicted. We stopped by in the morning thinking it would be lively, but when we walked in it almost felt like we had accidentally wandered into a gym because of the shared space. The entrance experience was awkward. We said hello a couple of times and no one came out right away. Later we realized the employee was just on a quick restroom break, which happens, but in the moment it felt a little off. By the time someone came out, the warm welcoming energy just wasn't there, and it honestly made my partner want to leave before we even ordered. We ended up staying because I really liked the concept and wanted to support them. We tried their first sandwich and their first smoothie, and both were actually pretty good. The space itself was spotless, very clean and modern, which I definitely appreciate. The downsides for me were the price point since my partner felt he could make something similar at home for much less, and the parking situation, which wasn't the easiest and had a few people hanging around outside that gave it an odd vibe. Overall I'm giving four stars because the food itself was solid, the idea is fresh, and the cleanliness stood out. I just wish the service and first impression matched the potential here. If you're nearby and curious about trying a Persian inspired spot, it's worth a visit, but for me it's probably not going to become a regular go to.

    Current menu!
    Kim T.

    The team here is incredibly sweet and welcoming! I came in during a random weekday for a little pick-me-up! I saw that they had a lavashak smoothie and knew I had to make my way in sooner than later. There is a lot nearby for parking (they offer validation), which I will note for next time lol. I def gotta try the food, but as for the smoothie. 10/10!!! Perfectly encapsulates lavashak in a liquid form :) The anjeer latte (fig matcha) was also cute; clearly I was on a liquid diet this day because I had two drinks for lunch lol. Again, thank you for making my first visit so fun and special. Def adding this to the rotation when I am in the area!

    Spicy Shirazi
    Joseph M.

    I was searching Yelp for a good place to get a sandwich and found what I was looking for when stumbled across Meymuni. The photo doesn't do a good job at showing scale, I easily could have stopped after the first half of the Spicy Shirazi wrap, but kept going because it was so good. I'll definitely be back to try the burrito and some of the other sandwich options. I felt like a got a good bang for my buck, the staff was very friendly, and the space was open and clean. And the fact that they have a private parking garage right around the corner is great!

    Spacious interior. Nice modern design. Love the wood everywhere.
    Evan C.

    Meymuni Cafe is an outstanding addition to the West LA cafe scene. A self-described "modern Persian cafe" that certainly lives up to its name, it's a great spot for a coffee, smoothie, or a tasty Persian sandwich. Honestly, I think it's one of the best cafes in the area for getting some work done, especially given how easy parking is. PARKING: First, I should note that parking is very easy but confusing at first. What you want to do is drive into the "retail parking" alleyway (under the LA Metro Bridge), drive all the way in, and make a right into the spacious parking garage. If the gates are down, just pull up and they'll automatically open. There's a ton of parking. (Don't go to the residential parking garage opening, which is a separate area). FOOD: Pretty good. I got the Mamani beef sandwich wrapped in sangak bread. The beef jambon was tasty- reminded me of pastrami. The potato salad in the sandwich was refreshing. It comes with a side salad- I chose the classic shirazi. I also ordered a Persian chai. It comes unsweetened by default, but they give you a stick of "saffron crystal rock candy" for you to adjust sweetness. Plus when I went, they laid out a bunch of complimentary Persian pastries for you to grab yourself. Nothing beats a chai paired with a cardamom cookie and a date. AMBIANCE: Very comfortable, sleek modern space with tons of seating (indoors and outdoors). Great for reading or studying. Well-lit, not too cold. Not too busy when I went Sunday noon.

    We found this little sandwich shop tucked away in this little strip mall just off of Barrington…read more The restaurant itself is a lot larger than I anticipated. Just a heads up, they only accept card payments. Card payments includes Apple Pay as well as Google pay, in case you were wondering. I was impressed by the large dining area the natural light that comes through and how clean everything was. The menu is tough for me to read because I am a little bit more visually impaired these days. But they are located on three large TV screens above the register and ordering area. There are printed menus available as well. Most of their sandwiches look like they are anywhere from about $15-$18 each. They have quite a variety. I really love and appreciate that the person who took my order not only was very familiar with their sandwiches and could make some really good recommendations, but they were very mindful in letting me know if I were ordering a sandwich that were cold versus hot. Sometimes I've had the experience where I order a sandwich and I get it and it's cold. I didn't anticipate that. So, there was one sandwich that I thought I was going to order from here and the employee who is taking my order let me know that that was a good selection, but that it was a cold sandwich and not a hot one. Thank goodness. A dodge bullet on that one. I also really appreciate the fact that the employee let me know that with certain sandwiches, if the bread type was not one that I cared for that I might be able to substitute it without any problem. I ordered food for my kiddo, and I mentioned that she has a little bit more bit more difficult time with breads that are crispy or hard or tough, like a French roll. So she made it very clear to me as to which bread varieties they have that might be good for her situation. I also really like the fact that the employee knew what was in the different spreads that they use on their sandwiches. That was very helpful. I also mentioned to the employee that I am allergic to olives and cucumbers. And so, if there were any items that we were ordering that were inclusive of cucumbers and olives, she would put cucumbers on the side, but olives were not a worry because they don't use them in house at all. I was honestly just really impressed with your service and the knowledge of their staff. She said that a lot of their repeat business comes from their in-house spreads that they use on their sandwiches. I believe it. My family and I we ordered about five different sandwiches. Each sandwich comes with a side salad unless of course you go ahead and decide to order an upgraded side. Some of the examples of upgraded sides include things like french fries or a goat cheese and tomato soup. Another option was a turkey chili or a side of coleslaw or a kale pasta salad. Those are all pretty good seeming sides. Personally, I ordered pretty blindly. I didn't really look at the cost of each of the sandwiches that I ordered nor did I ask about the cost for the upgraded sides. But all in all, five sandwiches and upgraded size for each of them was a total of $100. I figured, 20 bucks per person really isn't bad these days.
