    Charcoal was set up outside a bar where they were holding a trivia night. When I got there, I was hungry so I placed an order. I wasn't sure what to expect, but the food was absolutely amazing! I got chicken, which I wasn't expecting a whole lot from. I don't know what they do, but the seasonings and the juiciness of the chicken were incredible! Their tzatziki sauce is fabulous, and the side of cabbage was super flavorful. Highly highly recommend! I'm actually craving it right now. I may have to stop in soon. ;)

    I was looking for a new place to try today and ended up stumbling on this restaurant. The style of the place is cute and they have covered sitting areas inside and outside. Inside I was greeted by a very friendly older gentleman and a woman. They explained the menu to us and were very patient with my picky self I ended up getting one pork shawarma and one chicken shawarma to go 50/50 with my friend so we can get a taste of each. I also ended up getting this salad (which i don't know the name of) which was delicious. The shawarma was really fresh and had a really good sauce. They can make it regular or spicy so let them know if you're a spicy lover and they will accommodate. Overall I had such a good experience here and honestly I will put them in my list of places to visit in Glendale. Can't wait to try their bbq next time

    Fantastically fresh Armenian kebabs, schwarmas, and plates. The beef lula kebab stole the show - that was by far my favorite. Flavorful and extra seasoned. Also got the beef kebab plate + pork schwarma. Washed it all down with an Abali yogurt soda drink.
