The food was pretty darn good. My siblings really liked the chicken, they say it's one of the best chicken they have tried. Only thing was that my mom got the chicken breast that basically isn't seasoned with anything, so it was expected to taste plain. But it didn't even have salt, so she didn't enjoy it (she can't have foods with certain seasonings so). I got some beef sandwich thing (forgot the name), it was pretty good yet kinda tasted sweet which was interesting. Service was well, definitely no Chick-fil-A service or atmosphere but well, they were kind I guess. The service and atmosphere isn't anything special so, but they weren't rude so that's okay. Was a little packed yet and I thought our food would take long, since we are a family of 5 yet to my surprise we didn't wait long.
Love Zankou. I've been eating here for most of my life. This one, was once the nicest around- now a glimpse of it's former self. It's always kinda sticky- never feels really clean. The food is always fantastic. This store is always busy, it must be hard to keep up. But a deep cleaning would go a long way.
There is actually a lot of variety between various Zankous locations, and this one is definitely the best.
The chicken stuff is good, but where it really sets itself apart is the beef plates. Literally all of them are can't miss.
Also, the hummus here is always fresher than some of the other spots around L.A.
All in all, 5 out of 5 star experience.

I love their food. I always have. You cannot go wrong with their menu selection of food either. I can honestly say they're all quite tasty and filling. The staff are also quite friendly and helpful (at least during my most recent visit).
My only gripe is the very low and somewhat tight booth bench seating. I'm 6'1 and I had a hard time getting in and out of those seats. If you're a group of 4 tall folks, that will be tough.
There are wheelchair / stroller access ramps with a good amount of parking spots too. If you can't park near them, there's also free parking at the lot next to it.

Amazing, I don’t usually leave reviews for places I visit but with the service and food how how can I not. I’ve seen the place around and have hang out in the restaurant’s outside tables but never really entered to buy food. I loved everything, the place was very nice and clean, pretty calming with the music. Service was 10/10 all workers seem very nice people. I ordered a chicken bowl and it was very hot which was good for me so I don’t eat cold food because I take too long to eat. I always like to stick to a tight budget so I don’t spend too much, for the amount of food I got it was a pretty decent price. The food was amazing, the best Mediterranean meal I have ever eaten. I tried the cucumber and lime juice and it was very refreshing too, not too sweet not too bland. Sauces were 8/10, loved the harissa and tahini sauces (garlic not so much) it was mainly the texture of the garlic sauce I didn’t like but that’s just a preference of mine, the taste was pretty good. Experience 10/10 food 9/10
Great food , Authentic taste especially the Grilled Chicken ( Farouk) just awesome 😎. Always coming here for those cravings
Chicken kabob plate / 2 grilled chicken kabobs, grilled tomato, marinated onions, rice, hummus, cucumber salad, pita, garlic sauce - 5 🌟!
Some folks think whole chicken is the way to go at Zankou. Others like the vertical grill meats. I have a personal preference for their kabobs (but definitely enjoy everything on the menu).
Something about the Zankou Chicken kabob plate is magical to me. I'm a big guy, and this is a meal that never fails to fill me up. It is always made fresh to order, and the meats they use are tender and filled with flavor.
The kabob meats are placed on top of a bed of basmati rice, and the standard plate has cucumber salad and hummus. Every bite winds up being awesome.
This is the Burbank location. It's in a place with a big parking lot, so there are no issues there. The decor is whimsical and fun. The place wasn't crowded, so food came out fast for me.
If you are new to LA and want a Mediterranean meal that has many locations, Zankou is a great pic.
