  I’m always on the lookout for good Middle Eastern cuisine. Fanoos Grill did not disappoint at all. My husband enjoyed the beef koobideh sandwich and I had the beef koobideh plate with adas polo rice. The meat was rich and flavorful. The adas polo had the right mix of basmati, dates, raisins, and lentil. We will most definitely return!

  Food is much better than the customer service. I’ve been coming here for about 2 years, and really like supporting the small businesses. When you dine with small businesses, the service tends to be more intimate and you feel you’re like family. Usually.I generally have a great meal at Fanoos, but on this past visit, the service was just ok. We came here on a Sunday evening at 6:30 pm, and the place was not busy so we got to sit whereever we wanted. A nice young guy followed us until we claimed a table, and placed our menus in front of us, and got our drink order. He came back twice to see if we were ready to order, and by the 2nd time, we did.I love Persian boneless chicken and I also like beef koubideh. Unfortunately they don’t offer this combo, but they do have the Persian boneless by itself for $12.99. I asked if I could get that, plus a side order of Koubideh, which the guy thought was like $4.99. Fine. Sounds good.So I get my order, and it came out right. Beef koubideh, boneless chicken, buttery basmati rice, salad, grilled tomato, and a 1/2 grilled jalapeno?? Even though I pulled the jalapeno off my rice, the oils of the pepper lingered, burning my mouth as I ate the portion of the rice that touched the pepper.Aside from the burning rice, the food was good. While eating, I could not help comparing it to Peris Restaurant in Hawaiian Gardens (which I really liked). When the check came, the waiter charged us for the Soltani Plate at $18.99, subbing the chicken koubideh for the beef… only I didn’t get the chicken kebob (breast meat). My boneless chicken was thigh. Now, I don’t mind paying for the combo substitution charge, but I wished the guy could have TOLD us that was what he was doing, since when I ordered off the menu, I said I wanted the boneless chicken PLUS a side beef koubideh. During the meal, no one came to check on our food, or if things were ok. Food was good (not great), but I am disappointed in the service and the lack of communication the server failed to provide.This was just a A-OK experience. callmemochelle.com

  Intimate, the owner enhances your dining experience with his greate service. The filet Migno was tender, juicy and lots of flavor. Remember to try the specialty rice (Ada’s polo, lubia polo) Excellent
