Our very first time and this people are extremely rude the restrooms are dirty and seems like they don’t like when people come and consume here. Very very unpleasant experience. First and last time coming to this place!

One of my friends referred me to this place, and I’m glad he did! Hummus, Falafel and fol is what we tried and it was awesome!!! The service was excellent and we really enjoyed the cozy atmosphere. The place looks like an old fashioned restaurant which I really liked. You should definitely check this place out for awesome food!

This place has amazing falafel! Hands down the best I’ve had. My family and I often come here in the weekend and it’s usually the same guy working here. I don’t remember his name but the customer service is amazing! I also love how clean they keep the place. All in all, we’ve tried many things off the menu and have yet to be disappointed. It’s a great place to come check out with family or friends.

I had a great custom service experience here. The lady at the counter was sweet and polite. They were swamped when I went in for lunch. But amazingly no one was upset because the lady was working so hard and cordial at the same time. The key to customer service is to make each of your customer feel special and she did. The manaesh(zaatar) and zaatar w/cheese were delicious. I placed a large order before I left for early morning next day pick up since I was returning home. She had everything ready in the morning the next day at the exact requested time. She even fried the kebbeh for me, which tasted amazing. I will be back whenever I visit Anaheim/Disneyland.

Every time I come to this place I see it getting worse and worse restrooms were dirty as hell paper towels everywhere on the floor, and the light is broken. Too much stickers and signs on the walls that are hand written and unprofessional. Lool and today i saw a new sign that they install hd camera system… Miserable management.

We visited on 12⁄22 from San Diego. We ordered and waited for more than 45 min and when I checked with waitress, they remembered to start making the rest of our food. One sandwich and Falafel sfeihah was ready but was cold as it was obviously done long ago but they forgot to bring it to us. Service if we can use this word is the worst I have seen. They brought the wrong order afterall, we refused to eat and left.

I love this restaurant since my childhood. Ever since that time they are still awesome. Nothing beats their koko kiri for sure. Even though I think it is a little bit priced, but still this is my favorite place ever.

Interesting burst of flavors in your mouth. A little bit of kabob wrapped in pita bread, swooshed through the hummus into your watering mouth, and grumbling tummy. Yum! Slurp slurp the hot black tea with green green mint leaves floating up top. Pickles can be passed on. I prefer crunchy n harder. Radishes were clearly on the older side. I liked the kabobs. They had an interesting flavor. Loads of green in there. Might be some parsley. Funny thing is that it almost tasted like a tabouli flavored kabob. Oooooo and let’s talk about that shape. And the shape: I’ve never seen a kabob with rounded edges like that. It was a bit on the dryer side instead of juicy. But still yum. The falafel were Amazing!!! Must try. So yummy n delicious. Perfect blend of ingredients. The rice was good. The booth seating was a bit sticky. But, I didn’t bother asking for help. Just wiped down myself. The interior was extremely fun to observe. I loved the fake coconut tree. A pole in the center of the restaurant was transformed to a coconut tree. With leaves and real coconuts attached. I loved this part. The artistic murals on the wall were beautiful, and kept my eyes entertained. The fake grape vines were a nice touch to the right side of the room. The chandeliers lamps on left side were in various rainbow colors. Which I also loved. This place could never get you bored. A few items upfront for sale like figs. The great big menu was organized, with numbers for easy ordering. What you see in pics is what you get. A few ceramic chefs decorate the place. As well as boxes for donations. There’s a community shelf with local events, and businesses. The service is medium slow. Expect to wait for fresh food. This is more of a quick lunch place not a date place. Good for families and groups. Its has two tables that can seat 9 – 10. Loads of private shared parking with plaza. Sorry guys wasn’t feeling so funny today. Kabob anyone?

This place has the best chicken and cheese manaeesh I have ever had. Al Sanabel has solved the problems that most places have with their chicken and cheese: 1 — It’s SUPER hot out of the oven. 2 — The chicken isn’t dry 3 — There is plenty of cheese. It’s amazing, and you’re missing out if you haven’t tried it. I have also tried the lahmabajeen with cheese, and it’s good too. I prefer the chicken one, but that’s just me. The employees aren’t the most friendly, but they are nice enough, and the food more than makes up for it.

Ive been to alot of Arabic restaurants. Grew up in a Lebanese family, boisterous and centered around food. And no place ive ever come across brings back memories like this place. The food is absolutely phenomenal and I crave it everyday. Anything you order, you wont regret. They have food for every taste. Those who grew up eating this kind of food and those who are curious. Meat lovers and vegetarians alike. You will want to come back everyday and order and enjoy. The interior design of the restaurant and bakery is homey yet intrigues the traveler sense inside of you with murals of the middle eastern shores. The owner is so nice and helps you with everything and makes you feel like family. If you go into Al Sanabels Restaurant and Bakery, it will be one of the best decisions of your life.

We peeked inside thinking this was only a bakery. Apparently not so. It is more of a restaurant, a slew of small tables, and with a menu featuring an amazing list of Arabic pizzas. Since we were not looking for that kind of food, I really cannot attest to its greatness. But there were a couple of bakery items sitting on a shelf, unwrapped. One was a tray full of what looked like pita bread, only with sesame seeds all over it. I see sesame, I lose my inhibitions. We got 2. Unfortunately, I am glad we only got 2, they were old and tough. Tossed them. The other item on a tray was called a cinnamon roll. Not resembling what I know as a typical cinnamon roll, I of course had to get that too. Again, probably at least a day old and tough, but lighly sweetened and with extraordinary spice. Not just with cinnamon, but I could definitely taste cardamom too. Too bad it was so hard. I could have liked this a lot if it were fresh. I ate it anyway, it was good. I wonder. How can you tell when these babies are fresh out of the oven?
