"Simply great! The food is authentic and they use real saffron in the rice and you can taste it. The chicken was very tender and seasoned perfectly. They gave us complimentary chicken soup to try and it was hearty and tasted just right and not watered down. Also had the KOOBIDEH, with salad and rice, they were all made with care and tasted like they should. If you are a fan of Persian food or something with lots of flavor, you got to try this place. They're very reasonably priced also, about 30% less than most other places, try it before they find out they're under charging the patrons and raise the price."

"My family and I have dined at Uncle Bernie's deli restaurant several times and each visit has been satisfying. Situated in the heart of the San Fernando Valley, this is our go-to spot for New York-style deli cuisine. The prices are reasonable, the food is delicious, and the portions are generous. I typically order the open-faced Pastrami and Chopped Liver sandwich with a side of fries, while my wife opts for their half sandwich/half soup combo (often the delightful mushroom and barley). I highly recommend this restaurant without hesitation."

"We've visited Label Deli several times, but we've noticed a lack of consistency in their Corned Beef Pastrami sandwiches, which seems to depend on the mood of the cook. First of all, the sandwiches never resemble the pictures in their advertisements, and the portions of meat are significantly smaller. During our last visit, we paid $3.50 for extra meat on each sandwich, but ended up with a large piece of burnt, unsliced meat that was mostly pure fat. Additionally, parking is a nightmare, as there is nowhere to park in the small shopping center. Just take a look at the photos of the Pastrami sandwich—AWFUL."

"When I lived in Encino, I routinely ordered from Ping Pong. In fact, I ordered so often that they recognized my voice every time I called. They consistently went above and beyond for me, sometimes even delivering my food after hours! Beyond the fantastic service, the quality of the food is truly exceptional. With Chinese cuisine, I often find that I'm served greasy chunks of meat that taste like they've been sitting out for a while. That is definitely not the case at Ping Pong. Their food always tastes amazing! It's clear that they use only the finest ingredients and their dishes are always freshly prepared. Without a doubt, this is the best Chinese restaurant I've ever ordered from. I should mention that they are a bit pricier than others, but I believe it's well worth it. The quality far outweighs the higher prices! I highly recommend this place!"

"FAB HOT DOGS offers a gastronomic pallette of colorful comfort. The counter artists deftly create vibrant, tube steak sandwiches. The Chicago style hot dog is an excellent example. ¹ First, the pink red, meat or vegan dog is heated in boiling water. When at temperature, the sausage, whose color becomes an inviting red, is then encased in a cloud soft, steamed, yellowish brown, split bun, that 's lightly coated with blue black poppy seeds. Next, layer upon layer of sweet and savory condiments fashion the collage. First, a zigzag line of brilliant yellow mustard highlights the red hot. Next, tablespoons of chartreuse pickle relish and diced white onion are gently layered. Carefully nested, between the sausage and the bun, are two red tomato slices, and on the opposite side, two yellow green sport peppers. Finally, a deep green kosher pickle spear is placed on top and sprinkled with a dash of greenish brown celery salt. Perfection. My system for devouring this mixed texture salad on a dog is to pull the pickle spear, squeeze the bun, and take a satisfying bite; then alternate with bites of fries and pickle. Be aware: hot sports peppers bite back. It is considered gauche to squirt ketchup on Chicago 's hot dog, but enlightened to dip crisp, golden brown fries into the gorgeous red condiment. Fab provides vegan and all meat frankfurters and burgers. Order from Jessica or one of the other friendly, knowledgeable counter people. There is no table service. Since hot dogs are reflective of the street culture of their regions, New York style frankfurters ² are combined with the acid fermentation of yellowish green sauerkraut, diced raw white onions, and dark yellow mustard, to provide the proper Big Apple 's Tang. The sandwich is encased in a yellowish brown, split, steamed roll. Defined by California 's Mexican heritage, ³ pink red frankfurters, wrapped in pink white striped bacon, are roasted to reddish brown. The charred, bacon wrapped sausage is placed into a yellowish brown, split, toasted roll. Lines of deep red ketchup, bright yellow mustard, and snow white mayo, intertwine to highlight the protein. Fried, until charred, diced white onions, and multicolored peppers are added, completing the LA Street Dog. At Fab, proteins may be boiled, steamed, fried, or grilled and enjoyed with a selection of Mexican and American soft drinks. Gluten free buns, fries, chicken, onion rings, sandwiches, salads, and corn on the cob, fill their menu. Recently, an assortment of bowl meals has been added. They will mix or match to meet your dietary preferences. Sit Indoor or on the patio. Telephone, internet, carry outs, curbside pickup, and no contact deliveries are available. Everything, including easy, free parking, and bathrooms are wheelchair accessible. Keys to use the bathrooms are available at the order desk. Fab Hot Dogs has a special benefit for regular customers. Eat all that 's on the menu (Not, hopefully, in one sitting. and get a t shirt and have your picture displayed in the I Ate It All Wall of Fame. The Food Channel 's Guy Fieri (Diners, Drive Ins and Dives loved the place. His picture is proudly displayed. So be a kid again. It 's just like sitting at a picnic table on the 4th of July. Just chomp on a couple of yellow green sport peppers and you 'll experience colorful fireworks. ¹ Reportedly, the Chicago style, all beef frank, on a poppy seeded bun, originated at Abe Fluky Drexler 's stand in 1929. Vegetable toppings were added to improve nutrition. During the 1930s, they sold for a nickel. ² In 1871, Charles Feltman opened the first Coney Island hot dog stand selling 3,684 dachshund sausages in a roll during his first year in business. ³ The Los Angeles bacon wrapped street dog, most likely came from Hermosillo, Mexico, in the 1950 's.
