    Was soooo excited to hear Spitz was opening up a location here! I first tried Spitz at their Studio City location back when I frequented Universal Studios often. I LOVED that place. Their street cart fries and street cart doner wrap were so good. 10 years later, here I am having Spitz again at their Placentia location. This location has the same funky, eclectic vibes. Board games are available for use by patrons. Everyone was friendly. Food was as good as I remember it, though I will say, the street cart doner wrap seemed like it was lacking in sauce and was a bit dry... might have to purchase extra sauce on the side, unfortunately. I do recommend getting the street cart fries, you won't regret it. I stuck with original potato fries and added protein (beef/lamb) on top, but they do offer sweet potato fries to as a substitute. Prices are reasonable. My only complaint here is the wait time. It seems like it's intended to be a fast casual restaurant, and you pay at the register first then wait at a table of your choice for your food to be brought out. However, we waited a good 20-25 minutes for our to-go order to come out. It was a Friday night around 7pm and the place was about half empty, at first. By the time we left, there was a decent wait at the register but no one staffing the register as they seemed busy with the back kitchen or delivering food to the waiting tables. Maybe avoid peak days and times if you don't have ample time to spare!

    The server tossed my plate of food on the table, but was very polite to the person eating next to me. I didn't finish my meal and left, never to return. Who do you think you are? Treating customers this way... You will have your humble pie soon enough

    Seriously, why this place is empty when I came??? The place is giving hip Mediterranean restaurant, the service is best, fast and friendly. The food??! Oh wow! Hubby said 5star, price wise it really does quite expensive but! The flap or says it all, fresh and yummy! It has good vegetarian option, and dine in or to go, I prefer dine in! I love the restaurant cleanliness, teh bomb falafel and delicious fries!!!

    Fun, colorful, casual space. 80's new wave music playing. Short wine and beer list. Fresh ingredients and delicious sauces. Very attentive service. My neighborhood has so many new Mediterranean restaurants. This one is good, not great.

    This place is amazing!!! I went 3 times while visiting family at the local hospital and everytime the food, the service and the music was amazing!!!! I asked the owner the first time what was his favorite and I ended up getting it all 3 times. My aunts also got the same thing each time: the wings, the sweet potato fries, the Greek salad, the cucumber limeade and the cinnamon sugar pita strips. You will leave stuffed and sooo satisfied! I wish there was one closer to me cause I would become a regular! I can't believe I didn't take more pictures. Maybe I'll HAVE to go back, lol.

    I found this place while driving by and the name really caught my attention. Since I'm familiar with Mediterranean food, I loved the idea of "street food" style. I decided to try the Chicken Mediterranean Wrap, and it was absolutely delicious--the taste was spot on, everything was perfectly seasoned, and all the garnishes were just right. What stood out the most for me were the fried garbanzo beans--such a unique and tasty addition! The ambience was also really cool, very different from other Mediterranean restaurants I've been to, and it made the whole experience even better. On top of that, the service was great. I'll definitely be coming back anytime I'm nearby!

    SUPER friendly staff, Bessica made our experience so welcoming and enjoyable! She was very accommodating, talkative, & patient. The food options were great. This was our first time coming here and we definitely left feeling like we would want to return. All of their SAUCES are so yummy and pair nicely with the foods offered. The inside decor is fun & vibrant - they even have FREE TABLE GAMES that you can play! Overall, a great experience, wonderful staff, delicious food, & a fun environment.

    Fried Pita Strips with Hummus

    Really modern and sleek place to take friends -- there's plenty of seating and even some board games if you want to hang out. I went on a slower day, but the guy at the register had contagious energy and the woman helping us order was super patient and helpful. My girl and I got the Berliner doner wrap. It was solid -- good portion, classic flavors -- but nothing that completely blew us away. HOWEVER... you need to try the fried pita strips with hummus. The pita was crispy and warm, and had a ton of seasoning. Easily the standout of the meal. Tons of parking in the plaza lot. Would definitely come back.

    The ambiance is always great here, chill music and great colorful and fun decor. They have a bunch of board games and alcohol selection so it's a great place to con hang out with friends. The food has been great everyone we come. I love the doner wraps - they're really packed and filling! They also have bowls and gyros so there truly is something for everyone. Their ingredients all taste fresh and make me feel like I'm eating a healthier meal which is always a bonus!Highly recommend you give it a try!

    So I stopped by Spitz in Placentia for some lunch on my way home. Chris the owner helped me with my order and the place looked clean and very bright inside! I got the bowl and he offered me different sauces that were complimenatry with the bowl. Solid dining experience!

    The OG Gyro: Original Greek and Sweet Potato Fries
    Michelle S.

    I am obsessed with Spitz. I come once a week or two. I usually get the same thing when I come because it just hits the spot. The O.G. gyro with lamb and beef is absolutely delicious. It's a big portion size, you definitely get your money's worth. The sweet potato fries are a must as a side. The Agua Fresca Cucumber Limonada is sooooo good. The Placentia location is in a strangely laid out shopping center so I think a lot of people get it to go. Which is too bad because the vibes are super fun. Great music playing, eclectic colorful design and super friendly staff. There is also patio seating. I also really like their rewards program since I come so frequently. Highly recommend

    It was just okay. The small portion size for the meat matches the lower price compared to other restaurants. Wouldn't call this anywhere near Mediterranean like they claim. They practically smash up their tomatoes, which made my bowl watery and unappetizing. The fried garbanzos were hit or miss. Some tasted good, while others tasted like dirty fryer oil. My boyfriend found pita bread in his fries, which would aggravate someone with a gluten allergy, so cross contamination is happening in the kitchen. Prior to visiting, I emailed corporate asking for an allergen list or list of ingredients at least. My email was ignored, as it's been 3 weeks with no reply. I have allergies and food sensitivities, which makes me afraid to dine at restaurants that are secretive like this. I took a risk and went anyway, which I won't be doing again. I like to know what I'm putting in my body, and chain restaurants are notorious for using fillers and additives to stretch their dollars. No thanks.

    Is the meat halal? - i called and asked and the guy said that everything except for the chicken wings are halal. (he gave the example of a chicken shawarma is still halal, just not the chicken wings specifically).

    It is posted inside of their restaurants that their meat is halal.

There's plenty of seating inside if you want to take a little bit of a break from moving around all day. The food here is great. I got the chicken souvlaki pita wrap, and my girlfriend got the lamb/beef gyro wrap. Both were really tasty. The meat in these is cooked to perfection and seasoned beautifully. The pita is soft and the sauce is really nice and complimentary. We do wish there was a bit more veggies in these wraps, as the meat can get rich and overpowering at times, but other than that, no complaints. Nick's fries are your classic loaded fries with sauce, feta, meat, and green onions. Their fries taste great on their own, and even better in these. The feta does get a bit overpowering but its not a complaint for me... I LOVE FETA. Overall, my experience at Nick the Greek was really positive. I'd give everything an 8.5/10. 100% gets a recommendation from me and I WILL be coming back!

Thank you for hiring such a great employee.

    Bottom Line Up Front: If you like Greek food but don't want…read moreto pay big bucks at an traditional sit-down restaurant, Apola can be your yummy, budget-friendly alternative. The Food: Let me start by saying this is clearly an American take on Greek food, so if you're looking for super authentic food, look elsewhere. But if you're OK with a fusion, Apola will satisfy your Mediterranean craving. There are gyros (pita wraps), bowls, combo plates, and burritos (see, there's that American take I was talking about). All of them range in quality from average to really good. Though I've been here several times, I'll focus on my last visit when we got "the Works" pita wrap and a Greek salad bowl. For the Works, it comes with all the fixings, your choice of protein, and fries stuffed inside (yes, inside, not as a side). I chose beef-and-lamb gyro meat, which came in a huge portion. (Pro Tip: I pulled the fries out and got a "free" side. Of course , there's not a lot of fries, but enough to satisfy my fried food craving.) The gyro was big and tasty. For the Greek salad bowl, we also got beef-and-lamb gyro meat. Once again, they hooked it up with the quantity. Nice! The ingredients (tomatoes, cucumber, feta, etc) were all fresh and seasoned nicely. Side note: I do find it odd that they call this dish a salad bowl when it comes in a rectangular plastic tray. But semantics aside, it was quite good. I also ordered a fountain drink and got a Coke. It was nice a crisp with a lot of carbonation. Just the way I like it. It's not as good as the exclusive Coke blend at McDonald's, but was a close second. I have had some pretty watered down Cokes at other places in recent years. The Service: There were two young gentlemen working the last time I visited, and they were both friendly and knowledgeable. They even brought our meals to our table, which was a nice touch for a fast food establishment. The Setting: It's located inside the recently revamped Yorba Linda Downtown, which has revitalized the area and made it a pleasant place to hang out. Unfortunately, on weekends, it's hard to find parking sometimes. Fortunately we came on a weekday and got parking nearby. Inside, Apola is clean and tidy with roughly enough tables and chairs for a variety of party sizes. The Conclusion: Apola offers good Mediterranean-inspired food for a reasonable price (compared to other restaurants these days) -- just don't expect it to be 100% authentic Greek food. It's not perfect and not super cheap, but with the right expectations set, I plan to return on semi-regular basis.
