    This is the All Beef Platter for three people. All very good!
    Sheila T.

    Food tasted delicious. I ordered on Thanksgiving lunch and for Christmas Eve meal. Beef Lula, Rice, Garlic spread, Broiled Tomatoes, and salads were my favorites! I ordered via GrubHub but service could be seen on how the food was properly packed with care.

    Amazing Persian food
    Emma P.

    Absolutely amazing! The food is super fresh and beyond delicious -- 11.5/10! The owner is friendly, funny, and clearly passionate about great food. I'm very picky, and this place completely blew me away. Fantastic customer service, super quick, and everything tastes so fresh. Highly recommend!

    Family meal comes with hummus and pita bread
    Joon L.

    Raymond the friendly owner is a master chef who has exceptional quality for making the best kebab in the world. Rice is perfect with some sort of small berries which go so well with salad and the flavorful meat. His hummus and garlic sauce are ridiculously good. The chicken thighs and beef lule are the best I've ever had. As a kebab lover I highly recommend this fine restaurant.

    No hummus
    Tatiana D.

    Terrible experience at Sofra was so disappointing I felt compelled to share. The guy at the counter was extremely rude dismissive, impatient, and acted like answering basic questions was a burden. On top of that, they don't even have hummus. How does a Mediterranean restaurant not offer hummus? It's literally a staple. Between the poor customer service and lack of basic menu items, I won't be returning.

    Family meal
    melissa h.

    The fresh and amazingly savory food served here is THE BEST! We love their family meals, delicious and a great value. I ordered 2 family meals for a family get together and they loved it! We love to order from Sofreh.

    BEEF LULE KABOB
    Jana F.

    I ordered beef lule kabob which was delicious. The man that prepared the dish was very friendly and helpful, he even gave me a side of sumac.

    Beyond Steak
    Will C.

    Ray provided excellent service for a Mothers Day event. We came together and provided a menu that would please the vegetarian option instead of steak or chicken Ray used Beyond meat and it was excellent. Guest couldn't tell the difference. I would recommend Ray for any occasion

I am from San Francisco and studying in Santa Barbara, so I don't go home very often to eat my family's Lebanese food. By chance, a friend recommended this place, and I went there with a bunch of friends to celebrate a person's birthday. Everyone loved the food, and it put a huge smile on my face the whole time I ate there. At the end, they gave me complimentary snacks. The owner, Omaya, is such an amazing person, and her hands truly know how to cook and bake. All the food and baked items are handmade and fresh. I will come here anytime I miss my family's food so it can satisfy that part of me that misses them. The service was amazing, and the servers are truly awesome and friendly. The ambiance was great too. Definitely going to come here on my birthday for a good cheat day!

Ordered the beef medium but I recommend closer to rare as your preference desires because the tenderness and flavor. We try to stay on the healthy side so we opted-out of the side of rice for the salad and it set in well with the beef. The grilled haloumi cheese has a great texture, flavor and not too salty as one would expect. It comes with sides of tomato and cucumber slices so it works to clear the pallate in between bites. Now we all know how busy this place can get so I always recommend coming on weekdays if it fits in your schedule. If you come for dinner or on a weekend, allocate some extra time for your wait. They do have a covered patio now and as we get closer to warmer weather, it will work out fine. Come and make your way around the menu as there are many savory plates to experience with family & friends. Share and experiement!

(And maybe not again.) The first time was a lot less busy and we had no problems. This second time was different, unfortunately. It was a Friday night and, being the day before Valentine's day, it was busy. No excuses though....if you are going to offer gluten free options you MUST be able to handle that accurately when it's busy. Our server was WONDERFUL and did exactly what she should have done with all of this. I had many questions about the gluten free options and she was able to answer them, or went back to the kitchen to double check. She did not make me feel like a bother or inconvenient at all. I ordered chicken alfredo with gluten free pasta. When my meal came out, it had fettuccine noodles. I had a twinge in my stomach because this did not seem right, and from last time, I did not remember those being the gf noodles. I asked the guy that brought my meal if this was the gluten free pasta, I think there may have been a language barrier because his accent was thick and his response was, 'is this what you ordered?' I said yes and he walked away. I waited for our server to come before I took a bite by so I could TRIPLE check with her and she noticed IMMEDIATELY the dish was not right. She said, 'oh no! This is not the gluten free pasta. It should be the penne noodles!' She took the dish away. I was interested to find that the correct dish with gf penne noodles came out within 5-7 mins. The only gf pasta that I know of that cooks that quick is fresh gf pasta (8mins). And this pasta you serve is not refrigerated fresh pasta, lol. Was the wrong dish sent to the wrong table by accident? But why did the person that brought my dish not know what he was bringing? There was also very little sauce to be found on the dish. I am not a sauce person so for me to say there was no sauce....it was almost non existent. Now....price. I don't remember the original price of the dish I got, but you up charge SIX?!?!?!?!!! Dollars for the gluten free substitution pasta (most I've seen is $3-4)? And adding chicken is another $8?! My dish came out to be $32. And I will be honest, it was NOT worth that. No manager came out to make sure everything was better. Nothing was taken off the bill for a HUGE mistake, that could have cost me my health or a trip to the hospital. Not happy with this experience. Not happy paying $136 for this experience. Train yourselves with more accuracy please. Thank you.

From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm, inviting, and full of positive energy. The restaurant was clean, well-organized, and had that perfect balance of casual comfort and polished service that makes you want to sit back and truly enjoy your meal. The food, of course, was outstanding. The chicken was incredibly flavorful, perfectly cooked, and clearly prepared with care. Every bite was juicy, well-seasoned, and paired beautifully with the sides, which were just as fresh and satisfying. You can tell Zankou takes pride in consistency and quality, and it really shows in every dish that comes out of the kitchen. What truly elevated this experience to something unforgettable, though, was Marisol. Her hospitality was hands down the greatest we've ever experienced anywhere. She was warm, attentive, genuinely kind, and made us feel welcomed like family rather than just customers. Marisol went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect, checking in at just the right moments, answering questions with a smile, and creating an atmosphere that felt personal and sincere. Her positive attitude and care completely transformed the meal into a memorable experience. Because of Marisol and the incredible food, this Zankou Chicken location has officially become our spot. Not just Zankou in general--but this one specifically. We are definitely coming back, and we'll be looking forward to seeing Marisol again when we do.
