    Grilled fresh!
    Ted H.

    As with everything, and bit on the pricey side...but I will say it felt it was worth it. We ordered the #11beef and chicken combo plate (falafel + salad side) and a #22 beef wrap (hummus side). The salad with combo was very good, not just some greens thrown on the plate. There was lettuce, spinach, and chopped tomato with cucumber. Dressing was not the typical yogurt, but a citrus oil that was very good. The falafel side was an order u to itself, and was piping hot/fresh! The beef in the wrap was the same as the combo plate (not the luleh/ground meat). Wow!! It was grilled to perfection and tender!! The chicken was also very thick, not fatty, and very flavorful. Beware the toum (garlic spread)...it's POTENT . Super bonus points for giving extra bread (lavash) with dinner. It was the perfect amount with the extra hummus and my combo plate. Cons: no pickles with the combo plate. Water is $2/bottle for Costco/Kirkland, which I don't understand as all their utensils and plates are not plastic, so why not offer tap water, too? Parking lot is very "active" with the laundromat next door.

    I have been going to this place for years. I'm very friendly staff and good relaxing ambience, the food is always delicious and what I like specifically about this place is that the meat is juicy and flavorful. This service is usually relatively fast. Have enough tables and also parking space.

    Lamb chops

    used to love dining at Elena's in Glendale, but after the change in ownership, both the prices and the food shifted. Recently, I've been going to York Kabob, and it's starting to bring back the feeling of how Elena's used to be. Today I tried the lamb chops, and they were excellent--perfectly seasoned, just the right amount of salt, and not at all gamy. If you're in the Highland Park, CA area, I highly recommend York Kabob. It's not fancy, but the food is consistently delicious!

    Several years later, everything was positive. The takeout was nicely arranged in its box, looked appealing, and the salad leaves were fresh. The kabob meat (chicken and lamb) were both wonderfully tender and juicy. The rice was a very charming base. All taken together, the place was delicious and worth the money. PREVIOUS REVIEW There are two locations, one in Pasadena, one in Eagle Rock. What do I expect for a quick lunch place?? Quick (as it says), good quality food, and reasonable price. This place meets most of these criteria: the wrap I chicken chose from a whole variety of Mediterranean choices was fresh, juicy and I would not hesitate to try more items from the menu; it is comparably pricy (14.21$ with beloved diet coke); but most importantly the service was (despite emptiness of the place and acknowledged by the chef with an apology) exceedingly slow. Thanks that I have an iPhone ...

    Chicken & Beef Kabob Combo Plate and Medium baba ganoush side and free eggplant dip.
    Deidre M.

    My car was in the shop and I was starving so we ordered a late lunch via Delivery through DoorDash yesterday. I received $7 off bc it was placed during "happy hour promo" window on the app but still came out to $35 with taxes, fees tip. I ordered the chicken kebab + beef lule kabob combo, medium size Babaganoush and received a free small eggplant tomato dip. The meat was of high quality for sure, but I found the combo to be a bit lackluster for the price $25. I thought the salad would've been a cucumber type when it was just bagged lettuce with a weird vinegar type dressing and some rice. No hummus, or other vegetable or spread side came with it. Note: I could've received the grilled pepper and tomato instead of the salad. The medium size baba ghanouj was also small when comparing with other places (and didn't come with bread). Both dip and garlic spread seem to have a lot of ground pepper in it. I also didn't realize that this would be served with lavash instead of pita bread - but it makes sense learning later that this is a more a Persian establishment. Overall, it was a decent meal, but I probably will try other places.

    Eggplant dip
    Rebecca C.

    Excellent service! staff is very friendly and helpful. Food is great! My steak was very fresh and the rice very tasty! The restaurant itself is clean and well kept. We got o sample the eggplant dip as we waited for our order. It was really good. Would recommend this place :)

    Chicken Lule & Beef Kabob Combo Plate
    Debbie K.

    Not all kebabs are created equally. I really like the juicy, tender beef kebabs here. Their chicken lule is really tasty. Their Shiraz salad is fresh-no mushy cucumbers or tomatoes. They give generous portions.

The duck hummus, shawarma neck, and tuna kibbeh were all standout dishes. Why overpay at places like Raffi's Place, where the food feels overpriced without showing where the extra money went?

The only downside was that the waitress pushed an appetizer on us twice when we really didn't need it. Two entrées are more than enough to fill you up. Also, because the restaurant stays so busy, don't expect much small talk with the staff. It's very efficient and businesslike, but your food arrives quickly and on time.

Hermon helped recommend our food, cooked it, and even served us. She was so kind and made the whole experience feel really personal. She also offered us complimentary baklava, which was amazing.

Definitely recommend stopping by if you're in the area.

The soltani kabob was to die for; the flavors in the beef barg and koobideh were so rich and cooked to perfection. The mastery of these dishes was absolutely on display. The mast moosir was a great creamy and savory side dish to complement the entrees. I HAD to get the tahdig (crispy rice) too! I also had a bit of the lamb shank which was really flavorful, tender, and paired perfectly with the baghali polo. The yogurt soda was a bit of an acquired taste for me, but I'm happy to have tried it for the full experience. We finished off our delicious meal with a floral and sweet Persian ice cream wafer sandwich. The portions were enormous, so we left feeling full with leftovers to look forward to! We came on a lively weekday evening. They don't do reservations, but we were warmly greeted and quickly seated with lavash and butter on our table immediately. The restaurant has a beautiful and romantic atmosphere, with hybrid indoor/outdoor courtyard dining. Our waiter was attentive and made us feel very welcomed. I'd give this restaurant more than 5 stars if I could!
