    Everything on the menu is fresh, flavorful, and made with care. You can really taste the quality in every bite. The grilled branzino special is not to be missed.

    Located a couple minutes away from LAX. This little Greek style cuisine is rare in the area. It opens 10am to 8:30pm. I was greeted by the owner, who I thought he was one of the customers. He was friendly and took my order. The food was freshly prepared. The skewer of chicken and lamb were from a fridge, and were laid on the grill. The pita/yogurt, salad, and hummus were fresh, and they were packaged and ready for pick up within a a timely manner. The pita was scrumptious. The meat was somewhat between juicy and dry, defintely not the best. The portion of the meal was huge, you can easily divide it into 2 or 3 meals depends on your biological storage! Overall, the value was great, the service was good, the meat needs improvement. I give it 3.9 out of 5.

    The service was quick, the place clean and the food was good. I ordered the chicken kabob. The food was fresh delivered in reasonable. It came with dressing and garlic butter. Petit Cafe has to go and eat in, if you decide to eat in you order at the counter then have a seat until your food is ready. There is plenty of parking in the parking lot, I would return here.

    Love, love, love it here! I visited Petit Cafe one late Saturday afternoon, I loved it so much, I came back the next evening on a Sunday to find that they were already closed due to shorter business hours on Sundays. (Totally understandable!) My hopes and dreams were crushed! (Lol, okay I'm being dramatic! Haha) But I had been wondering all day about what I was going to order when I went back that day. The food was just that good! I ordered shrimp with rice and let me tell you, it had lots of flavor! I couldn't stop eating it even after I was already full. When I'm back in town, I'll definitely be back and try out some more of their signature dishes like the kabobs and gyros. If they're half as good as the shrimp I had, then they'll be amazing!

    Side of gyro meat

    I've really been missing the meats from here, so we paid another visit! Still as awesome as ever. The meats were juicy and substantial. The hummus was ridiculously creamy smooth. The falafel was perfectly fried and even lighter in consistency that I remembered. I wanted to try to gyro wrap this time, and it really hit the spot. The wrap was perfect. It was juicy and saucy and fresh. The seasoned fries were my favorite type (coated and properly cooked). It was all so delicious. I need to remember to visit more often.

    Tried this place today, and was quite impressed. The Greek potatoes are super tasty, salad was fresh with a light dressing and plenty of feta. Gyro had a lot of meat, soft, thick pita and excellent tzatziki. Quick, friendly service.

    Dolmades Delight and Falafel Vegetarian Plate

    Fantastic food. Got falafel plate and dolmades plate. Very clean. Well priced. Friendly service. Do not miss this place!

    Original Gyro To Go (I added lettuce)
    Paula F.

    The gyro was huge! I stopped by randomly looking for a small late night meal. I walked in and ordered the original gyro to go. It was ready in less than 5 min! The woman behind the counter was friendly and sweet. When I got home and opened the gyro it was so big! About 6-7 inches long and packed with meat and condiments. Perfect amount of tzatziki sauce and great flavors. I couldn't put it down! I was comfortably full after, I'm glad I didn't get any sides. $10 well spent! Thank you for a great gyro!

    Now that we have a new, amazing movie theater (have you tried $8 Tuesdays?), we have gone back to…read moreNomad a few times, and I can't believe I have not reviewed it yet. The Mediterranean menu is inventive and amazing top to bottom. Start by heading to nomadsouthbay.com and sign up for their email list to get a free hummus appetizer. It's $16 on the menu and comes with a still puffy from the oven flat bread (pita). It's worth the money, but definitely worth joining the email list. After the hummus, we split five dishes for the four of us. The roasted cauliflower is straight forward and delicious, served atop a lovely tahini and turmeric sauce. The kale salad was light and delightful. The lamb kabob plate was exactly what you want in Mediterranean food. The steak atop risotto, a favorite from Jackson's (the prior establishment here), was near perfect. But the star of the show was the Salmon Esquites--perfectly cooked salmon over fresh corn, lime, crema, and pinto beans. I am salivating writhing this! And I'm going back soon!

We were not in a big hurry but we didn't want to have a two hour lunch. When you first walk in, you can clearly see the bar area directly off to your right. It was completely empty. But, I wanted to sit at one of the tables there are they have TVs above the bar. Something to watch in the background during our meal. I notice that there were about four tables taken in their "outdoor" area. So, no busy. We were seated fairly quickly but then it took about 5 minutes before someone came over to offer us water or to order drinks. Seemed like there were only two people working the floor and they seemed a bit ruffled. Overall, for the limited number of patrons who were in the place, I thought we'd get more attention, or at least get it quicker. Once nice, thing, they have some specials daily. My wife ordered the tacos and they were good. I ordered the steak and fries. The steak was good but had a bit of sinew in it, making several pieces chewy. When I needed a refill, I had to flag down one of the two servers. When I wanted our bill, I had to flag down the server. Just seemed odd, for a place that only had 6 or 8 tables occupied (at this point) that we would have to flag them down for service. As said, overall, disappointed and wasn't the mood we wanted to be in before our matinee. Hope your experience is better than ours and...enjoy!!!

However, since I've been back a few times, the consistency and care is extremely lacking. I always order the chicken caesar sandwich which comes as a wrap (I love this). It has always come in "wrap" form, despite falling apart quite a bit since the first time, but when I ordered it tonight it came in taco form with a wrap on top of the "taco". Much more difficult to eat, and it was clear there was no/minimal dressing within the sandwich. I also found a chicken bone in my meal, which makes me wonder about the standards staff are held to. I would not be writing this review if not for the chicken bone (picture attached), as the food is quite good and the staff gives exceptional service. Though the flavors in the food are nothing short of incredible (especially the sauce that comes with the Caesar sando) I am concerned about the care/storage of the food placed for customer consumption.

I also really enjoyed the Greek salad, which was super fresh and loaded with crisp veggies and quality ingredients. It paired perfectly with the chicken. Another highlight was the service.

    Al Hamra Kabob Grill is a restaurant run by a Pakistani owner, specializing in kebabs and grilled…read moremeats inspired by Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisine. The menu also features traditional Pakistani, Persian, and Arabic dishes, such as Beef Nihari and Haleem. After several visits, here are my thoughts on some of their grilled meats and desserts. Beef Kofta - 3/5. The kofta was a bit dry and tough. I wish it had more fat and seasoning to make it juicier and more flavorful. The grilling is also somewhat inconsistent--sometimes the kofta comes out beautifully browned, while other times it's over-charred. Grilled Fish - 4/5. This is easily my favorite item on the menu and, in my opinion, their best dish. The fish is seasoned just enough to enhance its natural flavor without overpowering it. It's grilled very well, developing a beautiful golden-brown crust while remaining moist and tender inside. Beef Shish Kebab - 3.5/5. The quality of the beef is decent, especially considering the price. Given the cut of meat they use, they've done a commendable job with the grilling. The beef has a solid seasoning base and a nice sear with just enough char to add flavor without becoming overly smoky. It's reasonably tender, though I wish it retained a bit more juiciness. Chicken Shish Kebab - 3.5/5. Very similar to the beef shish kebab. It has good flavor and is grilled well, but it could benefit from being a little juicier. Gyro - 2/5. Unfortunately, this was the biggest disappointment. The gyro meat on the vertical spit often appears to be rotating without enough heat to properly caramelize and crisp the exterior. As a result, the meat comes across as dry, rubbery, and lacking the rich roasted flavor that makes a great gyro. Kunafa (Knafeh) - 3/5. This dessert has both strengths and weaknesses. The cheese filling has a pleasant, slightly salty flavor and a creamy texture, and I appreciate that it isn't overly sweet. However, the syrup is underwhelming. A good kunafa should be generously coated with a fragrant sugar syrup - ideally infused with rose water or orange blossom water - to provide sweetness and aroma. I also wish the kataifi, the shredded pastry dough, were crispier and lighter to create a better contrast with the gooey cheese filling. Overall, Al Hamra Kabob Grill is one of the better places to enjoy Middle Eastern-style grilled dishes in the South Bay. While a few menu items could be improved, the grilled fish stands out as excellent, and the shish kebabs are solid choices. The owner is also incredibly friendly and welcoming, creating a warm, neighborhood atmosphere that keeps customers coming back. It's not perfect, but it's a restaurant I enjoy visiting from time to time and one I'd recommend if you're craving grilled Middle Eastern flavors.
