I think I've found my new hyperfixation. The food here was absolutely phenomenal--every bite was fresh, authentic, and packed with flavor. The restaurant itself is notably clean and has a great atmosphere, but what really made the experience stand out was the service. Muhammad and Anne were incredibly friendly and welcoming; their recommendations were spot on and truly elevated the meal. If you're looking for top-tier food and a staff that actually cares about your experience, this is the spot. I'll definitely be back ! read more

SimSim Shawarma House - Mixed mix shawarma plate - Mediterranean Near Me - Anaheim, California

Okay... the pitas here are massive. Filled to the brim with meat, veggies, and sauce. Cooked to order french fries and a plethora of different dipping sauces to try. SimSim is an experience. The service is great! Everyone I interacted with was very friendly and helpful. I had a few questions about the menu, drinks, etc. and they were all answered with a smile. The food was freshly made to order, and the fries were piping hot and crispy when they came out. The food here is tasty. Not exactly the cheapest thing in the world but they do not skimp on their portions. You WILL get what you paid for. The only issue I have isn't really even an issue, but the veggies do sink all the way to the bottom of the pita and make for an unbalanced bite. Again, not an issue, I'll just mix it up next time!! Overall, SimSim is a great choice for your next lunchtime meal with friends or just for a solo date where you want to treat yourself to something light and delicious. 8/10! read more

post: Absolutely loved this place! I had the beef shawarma pita and it was so flavorful and fresh. The portions are very generous, and they definitely don't skimp on the meat. Everything tasted high quality and well seasoned. The service was also excellent and everyone was friendly, welcoming, and attentive. You can tell they care about both the food and the customer experience. I'll definitely be coming back! read more

SimSim Shawarma House - Beef pita - Mediterranean Near Me - Anaheim, California

SimSim Shawarma House is located right next to Mar7aba (coffee and home made pastries) and has the same owners. Ordering is done at the counter at this casual restaurant and the inside is clean with comfortable seating indoors. They offer shawarma plates, pitas, falafel and schnitzel. I went with a mixed shawarma plate. All the food served here is HALAL. Mix Shawarma Plate ($16.99 + $1.50 for hummus) - The shawarma plate came with rice, chicken and beef shawarma and fresh veggies and sides to choose from. I went with hummus, garlic sauce, spicy garlic sauce, cabbage, lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, pickles, tzatziki sauce, pickled onions, onions, sweet cream cabbage, mint, pickled turnips, and arugula. I also went with some tahini sauce, house sauce, and pomegranate molasses. Overall the food tasted amazing, and each ingredient was so fresh. This place in terms of quality, food, and setup reminded me of one of my favorite restaurants, Sababa Falafel, except there was no crazy line here. I definitely will be stopping by here when I need my shawarma fix, and then will stop by next door to get a pistachio latte. read more

Located in a plaza on the corner of Brookhurst and La Palma you'll find a small and unassuming restaurant that serves up some of the tastiest shawarma in Anaheim. Enter the glass doors and you'll walk almost directly to the counter where you'll be greeted with a smile by friendly and welcoming staff. The menu is small which is nice making it simple. Once you place your order and pay at the counter you'll see a small dining area with a few tables. The decor is nice, simple, warm lighting, most importantly very clean. Let's get to the food. "What would you like?" We hoped to try out a beef and a chicken plate one each. It was 9:03pm when we arrived and being the end of the day unfortunately the chicken was already finished. "Beef shawarma it is." - Beef Shawarma Plate with everything. 4/5 Stars ***Add hummus - Beef Shawarma Pita 5/5 stars One thing for sure, it's fresh. The vegetables, the sides, the seasonings all make for an amazing flavor profile. My wife enjoyed the plate I had the pita wrap. Let's talk about the pita. This pocket of dough was just so nice. Slightly blistered, light, not thick, but still held everything together through each bite. My pita was perfectly packed. A well balanced proportion of veggies to protein ratio along with all the accompaniments. Every bite was delicious. Not a bite was missing any ingredients. End of your meal, you'll bus your tray. Be sure to thank the staff for an amazing meal. You can definitely taste the difference when folks have pride in their work and put love into the food. I'm definitely coming back, looking forward to another amazing Pita and trying everything else on the menu. The plaza was under a long renovation, might've been over a year nearly two. Finally completed, and I'm definitely glad it's become home to a new flavorful addition of Mediterranean food in Anaheim read more

Simsim recently opened, and I decided to try it after seeing it on my Yelp feed. I dropped in for lunch and had an excellent first experience. I walked in and was greeted by a kind gentleman (may have been the manager). The menu is simple. You choose among plates and pitas, then pick your protein, then choose among the fresh ingredients and sauces in front of you. You make it your way. I ordered the beef shawarma pita, chose my preferred ingredients, and then the flavorful, tender meat carved from the spit-roasted meat was carefully packed into the pita. It was very delicious and filling. I also ordered the fried veggies (seasoned eggplant and cauliflower). The veggies were nicely cooked, but not as crispy as expected. The gentleman (I wish I had gotten his name) also gave me a few sauces to dip in and add to my pita. For drinks, they offer some canned and bottled varieties, most of which I have never heard of, and I was intrigued. I tried the Freez Mix brand, and it was refreshing. I'll have to try another kind next time. The dining area is clean and spacious with tables and an inviting atmosphere. The staff was kind and prepared my order promptly. I can't wait to come back for another meal. The prices are a little high, but the quality is worth it. I spent $33 total for lunch. A nice treat once in a while. Wishing the best for this business. read more

A new shawarma spot just opened nearby, so I had to check it out. We arrived about five minutes before opening, and they kindly let us come in and sit while they finished getting ready. I originally wanted to try the falafel, but they told me it would take about 30 minutes to prepare. (They later apologized--the kitchen started a bit late today so the falafel wasn't ready by opening. I just happened to come on an off day :/ ). So instead, I got the fried veggie plate, which included fried cauliflower, eggplant, and fries. Note: The pita sandwiches come with hummus, but the plates don't--it's an extra $1.50. I usually go to Sababa in Stanton/Garden Grove for falafel pitas and pita sandwiches--it's been my go-to--but I think I may have found my new favorite place! The bread was incredibly fresh and delicious (they get it delivered from a bakery in Gardena every morning). My husband ordered the chicken schnitzel plate. The rice was flavorful, and the schnitzel was nicely breaded and well-seasoned. You HAVE to try their house sauce--it's kind of like a less sweet, tangier Thousand Island--and the pomegranate molasses sauce. Those sauces really make the dish. Overall, everything was delicious, the staff was friendly, and the place was very clean. I'll definitely be coming back! The only downsides: no high chairs for babies, no paper towels in the bathroom (though they do have a Dyson hand dryer), and no baby changing station. Still, I'm giving them 5 stars since they've only been open for three weeks. read more

I pulled up to SimSim Shawarma and tried their Mix Shawarma Plate, and it was honestly fire. Everything tasted fresh, well seasoned, and just done right. The spicy garlic hummus was the standout for me, easily one of the best I've had. Super flavorful with a nice kick but not too much. Definitely coming back, this spot is legit if you're craving some good shawarma. read more

SimSim Shawarma House - Mixed Shawarma Plate mix shawarma plate - Mediterranean Near Me - Anaheim, California

A hidden gem tucked in one of the little corners of the conspicuous city that is Anaheim - and it's so worth finding. Super clean: from the food prep area, to the shawarma machines, to the floors and tables, and the seats. Spotless - I love clean restaurants - it is one the main things that keeps me coming back. The food: so good, so fresh, so flavorful goes down so easy. I think I devoured my meat pita in 5 minutes . The people there were super nice. The lady that helped me was very kind and accommodating and even asked how the food was. Thank you - keep up the good work!! P.S. if I were to make one suggestion, it would be that the prices are a bit on the higher side - I think they will get a lot more traffic with a more modest price point. read more

The food was very Delicious my partner got the mixed Shawarma plate and I got the Falafel Pita and everything was very delicious, but even better than the food was the amazing service of the owner ! He made sure we were happy with everything and gave us samples of the falafel. His hospitality was something we hadn't received from any other restaurant before. The restaurant was very beautiful and clean. 10/10 would recommend. We can't wait to go back! read more

The food was bomb and Nancy was great. Great selections and everyone was nice. Coming back for sure for sure

I was helped by Mohammad Alhayek. This is actually my first time having shawarma chicken and omg it is sooooo good everything had so much flavor and the customer service was perfect. I'll definitely be back! Best of all it's a mom and pop shop, so they actually value you as a customer and appreciate your business read more

First time here and was not disappointed! Mohammad Alhayek was very patient in his recommendations since we had never been here before. He arranged the plate beautifully and the taste was just as great as the appearance! The place had a nice asthetic and was very clean! Will definitely be coming here again! read more

Just ok nothing special. The seasoning on the schwarma is stronger which I like but the flavor was one dimensional. The rice here is weird it might be short grain and tasted a bit sweet.. I would have preferred a traditional rice. I didn't like how tiny the pieces of schwarma were because they got overpowered by the rice and salad. The salad had a lot of vegetables and an interesting sweet puréed cabbage type condiment that didn't add much to the plate and while I thought there was a lot of salad the container had a lot of rice which just seemed like a filler to me. The house sauce tastes like thousand island and ketchup to me which I didn't think complemented the flavors well and was overpowering. There are better restaurants in the area and not too far away. It would have been nice if this restaurant did more to distinguish itself from the others. read more

Service was good, but the food took longer than expected for a fast, build-as-you-go Chipotle-style concept. The meat had good flavor, but the rest of the ingredients were pretty bland, which made the overall meal underwhelming. read more

Let me start by saying the good things , the place is super new and clean great service good smile nice staff what I didn't like is the plate doesn't come with pita bread how ever the gentleman working there he gave me one afterwords saying it taste better with bread second Hummus isn't part of the plate so they give you all the toppings except the most important one Hummus is extra however everything tasted really good especially the garlic sauce was outstanding full of flavor and no after taste and no after issues like bloating and all the things that goes wrong with bad garlic sauce so I think it's one of the best garlic sauce in town last the chicken shawarma portion it need to improve not enough in my view so I feel this place by fixing the minor things it can be a HIT!!!!! read more
