User Reviews

I was pleasantly surprised by my experience at Esso Mediterranean Bistro. Despite being unfamiliar with Mediterranean cuisine, I found the combination kebab, Lebni, and Arayes to be delicious and flavorful. Highly recommend trying Esso Mediterranean Bistro!

Decided to go to this restaurant as it was near our AirBnB whilst we were staying in LA. The restaurant was very quiet when we arrived. They were about to close but they stayed open for us. We had no idea what to expect but the food ended up being very tasty. Only the son of the owner was there as the waiter and chef. He was friendly and gave us recommendations as we were unfamiliar with the cuisine. All in all, both the service and the food were great!

I was just in here again after maybe eight years w my pup. I forgot how excellent the food was!!!!!! They are friendly and super sweet. The food is phenomenal! The older gentleman makes it with absolute love! So delicious! I will drive over there more often!

Just had a really delicious combo plate. The rice was fluffy, well herbed, and fragrant. The salad leaves were crispy, fresh, and crispy. My favorite was the chicken kebab; big chunks of succulent and tender chicken and thin slices of squash. The khash khash next to it was also flavorful and wonderfully juicy. Service was friendly and efficient. The modest decor was neat and welcoming.

Easily the worst middle eastern food I’ve ever had. Our server was standoffish and didn’t once check on us. Additionally, they either overcharged us or need to update the prices on their menus.

Amazing neighbourhood restaurant. The food is beyond delicious - highly recommend the khash khash kebab, dolma, the vegetarian plate… to be honest even the rice here is next level!

Came from England, UK to this beautiful restaurent. Food was amazing cannot recommend enough! The owner and family are amazing and provided us with an incredible meal.

Checked it out today for the first time and it was beyond delicious and the service was perfect.
