    We had an absolutely incredible dining experience at this restaurant. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm hospitality and an inviting atmosphere. The portions of food served were not only generous but also incredibly delicious. The owner and staff were exceptional, going above and beyond to ensure our satisfaction throughout the meal. This restaurant has truly left a lasting impression on us, and it will undoubtedly become a regular destination for us every time we visit. Highly recommend it to anyone seeking great food.

    We live in orange county and used to live in Glendale. We came to glendale for some business and decided to eat in this place which we used to dine frequently. In a 92°F hot day they have no air conditioning working. Thay had no soap in the unisex restroom. when I mentioned it to the server she only said oh..Ok.. I ordered a ground beef kabob with rice which traditionally come with grilled tomatoes. A man possibly owner came with a bossy attitude and asked me if I wanted the grilled tomato or salad, I said I thought ground beef kabobs automatically come with tomato and he replied aggressively what DoYou mean??..every restaurant has their own menu.. terrible way talking to a customer. I have a restaurant with over 400 seats and 60 employees . My employees will be fired if they treat customers like that only once. Food had a good portion but mediocre quality. Ground beef tasted a bit off .cherry for the rice seemed comming right out of can and put on top of rice. Toasted Bread was cold and burned. Prices are high for the comfort , food quality and customer service. No wonder place had only one table with customer on the weekend... This place was very good 5 years ago and now has gone down significantly

    The restaurant is spacious given that they are known for their catering. I always come for the lamb chops, which has four large pieces, enough for 2 people or one very hungry person. The lamb chops are always well-seasoned. it comes saffron rice, salad, and hummus. If you are dining in, order the freshly brewed mint tea.

    We went here on a date and brought back family a couple of weeks later. Don't be shocked if it's not busy when you go in, just try it because the food is GOOD. They don't try to rush you out, the owners/family are super friendly and have offer great recommends! Lamb chops with cherry rice was recommended and I was shocked how much I loved the flavors together! We also were offered family style serving and it was an awesome experience. Stop in or order out, this place is worth the food coma later. If you like hummus the meals come with it, but don't be afraid to order an extra if you LOVE hummus.

    Visiting from Utah and this place was nothing short of amazing. Food was absolutely delicious and service was great! Would give more than 5 stars if we could.

    Almost don’t want people to know about this gem. Amazing food here. Period.

    Fabulous food with unique flavors. Even the side condiments were well seasoned and stood up on their own. Juicy meat cooked perfectly. Great for both vegetarians and meat lovers.

    Came here with my mom, and we had beef and chicken kabobs with dolma, eggplant, and yogurt apps. Everything was so delicious and top quality. The best part was the amazing prices. We decided to come back again a few days later for more good food. I recommend everything. 😁

  • 5/5 Megumi Y. 2 years ago on Google
    A small restaurant with delicious food! The amount is very generous. We had the Eggplant dish (Kashke) which was light yet flavorful. Koobideh Kabab was flavorful and soft. 5 star! Chicken kabab with sour cherry rice - loved it! The chicken was very tender. Also 5 star! Will be back for sure.

    I'm still thinking about the food we had here. And that was over a week ago! My son is five and he dove into everything, I was surprised. He kept askig for more. Every aspect of our meal was perfect. The mint tea. The meat and hummus. I wish I lived closer, I'd be there at least once a week if I did.

    Excellent food — everyone at the table remarked on enjoying their kabobs and salads. The staff is very friendly and attentive, but careful to avoid frequent interruptions. The atmosphere is unpretentious and spare, which is fine really since the focus is on the dishes.

  • 5/5 Ana M. 11 months ago on Google • 14 reviews
    Hands down, one of the best restaurants I've been in for a long time. The food was delicious. The different flavors are all amazing. I can't wait to come back.

  • 5/5 Lara T. 4 months ago on Google • 8 reviews
    Excellent food and very kind staff! I got the koobideh with the Lima bean rice, as well as an Armenian eggplant dip and the spicy olive appetizer. I highly recommend all three (particularly the spicy olives if you are an olive fanatic like me)--excellent balance of flavors and textures, and relatively generous portions. Would absolutely go again!

    Amazing restaurant. Highly recommended

  • 5/5 Derrick M. 2 years ago on Google
    Stayed in Burbank for business and stumbled upon this Mediterranean restaurant. Service was great, fast fresh and healthy. On this particular day they wanted to close sharply at 8pm. I understand this because most customers want to stay beyond their welcome when staff has been there all day and want to get those to their own families. There was a party that came in after me and got upset because the restaurant charged a cork fee! Like really why would you bring your own bottle and don’t expect to be charged?!? How about they go to a fast food joint. Food service was amazing! Ambiance could use a little work. But a definite must try!

  • 4/5 Yian 2. 1 year ago on Google
    Very good restaurant. They made per my request Persian coobideh with Sumak and Turmeric. Superb. So was the Zeresk pollo rice. So were the remaining dishes we had (tabouli, humus, babaganoush, rice dolmas,yogurt dish, etc, etc) Edward is gracefully host. We will return.

  • 5/5 AJ S. 4 years ago on Google
    Fantastic find in the middle of Burbank. What a special meal. Definitely has middle Eastern and Armenian items on the menu, but prepared and flavored not like normal menus. Amazing place. Eggplant appetizers are awesome, but the lamb chops kabob was the star of the show. It was soooo tender and flavorful. It was amazing. Definitely will be back

  • 5/5 Peter H. 2 years ago on Google
    The flavors are engaging delicious and create a sense of home. The meat was flavorful and tender and the rice was cooked to perfection. The price to portion ratio was excellent and the hummus and pita bread as well as the Persian salad were refreshing and welcome additions to the meal. Edward was welcoming and conversational and I appreciate the love in what he does. Thank you. 10/10 , 5/5 , two thumbs up.

    Food was decent, but server wasn’t that nice. Maybe it was our luck idk.

  • 5/5 Xavi B. 5 years ago on Google
    Excellent. The eggplant starter was really tasty, the chicken was juicy and tender, the Shirin rice was a perfect match to the chicken. The salad + humus + yogurt cucumber were really good as well. We enjoyed the experience. Service was friendly, generous portions and fair price.

  • 5/5 kristine B. 1 year ago on Google
    Wonderful dining experience. Prices were good portions were generous food was well seasoned. Love the appetizers and the cucumber and tomato salad. Will definitely go again. Service was prompt and friendly. Family run establishment.

  • 5/5 David C. 10 months ago on Google
    I stumbled here after my favorite hike in Brand Park, and INSTANTLY fell in love with their chicken thigh plate. Rice, salads and hummus are all given in generous portions, but most of all, the chicken here is second to none. I have been coming here for this plate every week, and I really look forward to it every time. Perhaps the best chicken kabob I have tried, and I have tried plenty. A must try.

  • 5/5 Tobia I. 1 year ago on Google
    Absolutely delicious food. Truly amazing. Sour cherry rice and chicken was phenomenal.

  • 5/5 A H. 11 months ago on Google
    I love this place!! I drop by with my family every month or so to dine in, and it's always a knockout. The food is fresh and delicious (the rice is buttered 🤤) and the service is excellent. The kabob here is much better than what you get at Rafi's Place, come get your Persian food here!! My wife is vegetarian and Adana has a lot of great vegetarian options too. Keep up the great work guys and see you soon!!

  • 5/5 Roarke K. 1 year ago on Google
    Ate here with a party of 7. The food portions were massive and were delicious! The salad and meat were flavourful and full of spice and herbs. The server was also very nice and considerate. We were given extra rice to share as well.

  • 4/5 James 1 year ago on Google
    Great food - one of the only Mediterranean restaurants with a unique menu in Glendale - but expect to wait, since there is limited seating. Also, the service is hit or miss. The last time we were there, one of the waiters got in a yelling match with a customer.

  • 5/5 Lisa B. 1 year ago on Google
    It was closed when i got there but the man working there (im guessing the owner) opened and let me order take out, not only was he so kind to that, but also the food was amazing!!!! The hummus is one of the best I’ve ever tasted and everything else was pure joy eating. The crispy bread! Definitely going back! Thank you

    This was my second visit to Adana, and the quality and flavors lived up to my memory of the first visit. Absolutely delicious, and a wonderful change from the starch-heavy lunches we had all week.
