Reviews for Anwar's Kitchen in Los Angeles, CA
What can I say, the Ak Shawarma tacos were AMAZING. The pita bread was fresh and decadent?I even wanted to buy them by the pack... (unfortunately they are not sold that way). The salsa was great as well. The owner was very nice and warm. The tacos are moreexpensive than regular tacos (I believe I paid about $20 plus tip for four), but they are worth it! They have outside seating,and they are located right next to fashion district if you want to do a little shopping. 10/10! Read more
???? Quiet place that deserves to be busier! Visited for dinner at the end of May 2022 and sampled the Anwar Style beef, and the... Chicken wrap. Now, I am a big fan of shawarma style food, so when I say this place nearby CitizenM in downtown LA, I had tocheck it out. I'm very glad I did! The beef flavour was excellent, and the 'Anwar style' plate was an interesting take. Check itout! Read more
I have been a huge fan of Mediterranean food all my life and have got the opportunity to explore the variation of it among the... places I have travelled. The cusine really is bold and caters to your palette in a strong flavorful way. I recently got theopportunity to try the food at Anwar's kitchen in DTLA . Corner place with an ultra modern interiors, I was quite taken away bythe food and service. It was completely empty on a Saturday post lunch hours which kinda gave the whole place to us . We ordereda bunch of stuff from there specialities - Chicken shawarma fries , grilled salmon, chicken wrap , chicken shawarma , chickenshawarma tacos , pistachio baklava and walnut baklava and the hibiscus tea . The food here is very rich , amazing presentationand quality ingredients. The pita and sauces served were all in house which explains the freshness of everything. I loved thechicken tacos , a great fusion with Mexican food taking small pita pockets and filling with the shawarma, topping it with someonion and then adding some salsa to the top, it was savory! Grilled salmon was really good, fresh , steaming served over bed ofrice and some salad , it spoke of gourmet food . Loved the idea of spreading shawarma over fries and topping it with thesauces. I absolutely loved the baklava , both pistachios and walnut were heavy, rich , sweet and tasted authentic, its not aneasy dessert to master. Overall experience was quite amazing and I can't wait to go back! Read more
Food 5* Vibe 4* Service 5* Got to say that this place being a walk away from the fashion district is a blessing. Indoor and... outdoor seating. Food fresh and delicious, you wont go wront with whatever you pick. The indor decor is cool, based off theyoutuber Anwar since he is the owner. The fresh Hibiscus Tea is cool and refreshing after a long day. Definitely try this placeout if you are in the area. Message to owner- please install a baby diaper changing station in the mens restroom. I had to usethe womens one to do so. Read more
Shout out to Steven and Lidia for taking amazing care of us and Chef Mo for showing us how they make their amazing food. The... Anwar fries are so amazing and delectable. In my opinion they are way better than animal style fries. As for the falafel gyro,make sure you order and try it. One of the best falafel Gyro for sure. Also try their salmon plate. They get their salmon fromNorway and it's fresh and very tasty. Their chicken, lamb and beef are roasted on a rotating spit. And finally dessert, thebaklava was one of the best I've had. Really great dining experience. I'm glad I fasted all day for the feast that I had. Checkit out and enjoy. Read more
Delicious! A homeless guy came in and caused a scene and Anwar Kitchen Staff handled it perfectly! Great Staff! Very... professional! Wish anwar was more attentive to his customers who come to see him as well as eat! But, the Staff was number 1! Read more
This is actually one of the tastiest shawarmas I?ve had. The flavours are great and the meat is juicy and flavourful and meshes... with the vegetables and sauces perfectly. The seasoned fries complement the overall meal, even being good as a stand-alone itemwith the sauces with the perfect size and crispness. The only downside here is finding parking, but I will definitely be back. Read more
I don't know what's taken me so long to do a review on Anwar's Kitchen! I eat here at least 3xs a week. Their food is so tasty... it's ridiculous - Always seasoned perfectly and cooked just right. Plus, they are timely. Never have I had to wait longer thenpromised or expected. All of the staff is accommodating and welcoming. Do yourself a favor and stop by. Read more
