Sean BesserJuly 31, 2013Very tasty food & one best food places on The Promenade. But it's ridiculous that at a place called Hummus Bar you can't get hummus as a side when ordering a plate that includes 2 sides. Seriously???
Crystal WarnerJanuary 19, 2014The pita is so thick and soft it just melts in your mouth!! Try the chicken shawarma and Nutella & bananas pita for dessert. :) Oh, and check in on Yelp to get a free soft drink!
Lina A.April 24, 2015Chicken shawarma and kebab are delightful, bread and hummus just amazing. Must try :)
Vignesh RaoOctober 20, 2013Vegetarians .. Try the veggie rice (thou a side worth $3),, it's awesome!!! Also try house Hummus, comes with the pita bread..- Falafel wrap with laffa bread, sooo good. Their hummus is amazing. Will definitely be back!
Krystle PistolJanuary 8, 2013Can't compare to original Hummus Bar in Ventura but its nice if your craving the food and don't want to make the drive. They don't have laffa with zatar either.
AbdulAugust 4, 2015I've never encountered any bigger cockroach than this one. I was eating there and it was walking beside us!!! I think this restaurant needs to pay more attention to the cleaning. DISLIKE!
WaleedJuly 5, 2013Honestly I like it there, the service is perfect, food taste delicious so try shawarma plate :)- Joe SpiegelJune 2, 2013Some one said the Shawarma was not good. It was fantastic, I couldn't disagree more. The French fries on the other hand were soggy. Tasty but soggy. Israeli salad was delish too. I'll be back.
PellySeptember 8, 2014The "count on us" toppings vary depending on what you order, so if you're particular, enumerate.
They just opened to I'll give them the benefit of the doubt that they will work out the kinks. But there is nothing express about this place. The food is fantastic though!!!!
Waukena KapschJuly 25, 2013Food was fresh and pita was enough for two. Ice tea freshly brewed. If not, sure tasted like it was. A lot for your money
The falafel sandwich is really good! For all the veggie lovers
Ken TeelNovember 15, 2014Pitas are good here. My kebab pita had fries inside. Never thought of that.
Shah RamAugust 11, 2016I have to confess that this food has been the worst chicken shouwerma in whole universe.
Kirti VasheeMarch 11, 2013I had to send my sandwich back because it was cold and they replaced it with another cold one == when they actually give you hot food it can be good but the managers here need to learn about QA
Carla FiorenzoJanuary 23, 2013got a large amount of hummus and one pita. how does that make sense? too pricy for the amount of food I got.
Beata MichalczykFebruary 2, 2013The worst chicken shawarma in my life. I live in Middle East so I can tell how real chicken shawarma tastes. This one tastes more like a chicken curry.

"Nice place to have hookah and meet friends. Food is okay. I'd recommend they have bigger menu and more dishes though. Staff is pleasant and prices are reasonable. Best day is Sunday 10:30pm-12:30am"
