Hideaway Lounge

This place is full of 14 year olds drinking under age on a Friday night. The management is shady, the drinks are watered down and you will get popped for buying a minor a drink here.

Fair deal. Recently opened, unusual set up for 3 bucks… I will return.

We came here because we bought an Amazon Local deal, so essentially paid half price ($ 5 for $ 10 of food). The value was pretty good considering the coupon, but I don’t know if we would pay full price for what we had — I know the prices on the menu are supposed to be pretty affordable already, but the food was nothing spectacular that I would go out of my way for.
We ordered a chicken wrap and a falafel wrap (and the combo sides — hummus, tabbouleh, cucumber salad, cucumber yogurt, extra pita, and fries).
Our family also loves Mediterranean food, and the food was not bad at all – except it was something we could recreate at home easily for cheaper (i.e. think buying the premade sides at Wholesome Choice, which are very tasty).
Also, another thing to note is that when we go to a restaurant for Mediterranean food, one of the things I look forward to most is the fresh baked pita bread. But the pita bread used here was the standard grocery store quality type that dries up pretty quickly after toasting, and is not super tasty… I dunno, I guess I just like good pita bread from the restaurants, and was kind of disappointed that it seems that they just used the normal cheap kind that I buy from Wholesome choice all the time. (To the owner: If it isn’t possible to make your own pita bread at this point in your business, perhaps invest in a better flatbread?)

OMG… OMG…OMG!!! Don’t go here!!! This place does not live up to expectations because I don’t even have any expectations for this place! I ordered a steak pita, chicken breast pita, and an order of Garlic Parmesan fries! I’m so disappointed its sad!
Where’s Chef Ramsey’s kitchen nightmares when you need him? The fries came out stale, the cheese smothered on top of the fries were dry lacking garlic. It was really depressing eating these garlic fries, even after the owner approached me and said these were his favorite and I wouldn’t be disappointed. I just need to end this review here, forget my other orders!
I would never come back, unless this place appeared on Kitchen Nightmares and overhauled it’s whole menu!
Peace!

I ordered chicken kebab, it was generous chunk but there’s no flavor. gelato was good but my garlic fries was soggy :/​although the service was great. the manager/​owner was super nice and greet everybody. I would say I will give’em 2^nd chance.

Came by for lunch.
*Service: 5, super nice and efficient
*Price/​value: 5, everything is $ 4 or less
*Chicken wrap: 4, needed more of the garlic spread, but still very good
*Steak kabob/​medium: 4, edges a little burned but still moist
*Hummus: 5, highly recommended
*Garlic fries: 4, it was crispy and loaded w garlic, wish the fries were cut smaller
*Tabolleh: 2, definitely needed more salt
Overall: I will definitely be coming back. Its a quick cheap eat that’s tasty in hard times. They mentioned that they would be having dinner next week. Something to check out. I hope they will do a combo plate in the future. I even gave it the «wait a day» test, and my tummy is fine.

Awesome service and great price! Run by a really nice guy. Must try the chicken kabob, gotta order three next time. Very laid back andvery clean and open atmosphere. Food is served fast and hot. Not a lot of choices: chicken, steak, shrimp… kebobs or on pitas… some sides which I’ll try next visit. There is a lot of parking. The place was a little hard to find but it’s right behind the Shell gas station.

I was on my way to San Juan Capistrano for a meeting with a client when hunger pangs began to gnaw at me. This is a new establishment, and I want it to do well. I decided to stop by since it’s right off the 91 freeway.
This time, I ordered the beef kabob medium as suggested. It was much better. The price is very reasonable, and guess what? There’s Siracha for those who like to mix it up fusion style.
What’s impressive, however, is that the manager of this place is very hands on. He cares about this restaurant, and he makes his customers feel appreciated. I saw him personally greet and thank customers for coming in.

Easy, unpretentious & good food.
I came to Kebab Flava to try the Unilocal special, consisting of a chicken wrap, rice or fries (garlic fries at an additional cost) and choice of 2 sides for only $ 2. Hey, I know a good deal when I see one, so I definitely can’t pass this up.
Ordering is simple. There is a table in front of the flatscreen TV’s with order forms to choose what you want. The TV’s display what’s on the menu/​pricing. When you’re finished deciding what to eat, just step up to the register where Jefferson (or the woman helping him) will take your order, give you change and hand you a number.
There is ample seating, mainly comfy booths and several tables. Nothing fancy, but I’m not here for ambiance. I’m here to grub!
I didn’t order a drink, so I helped myself to the condiment/​water station where I obtained my glass of water & some ketchup for the fries.
The wait wasn’t long at all. I had a full plate consisting of a chicken wrap (with choice of garlic sauce or tahini), french fries, tabbouleh & green olives. Everything was good. The chicken was moist & tender, the garlic sauce was garlicky and the bread was the right consistency. The fries were thick and crispy & the tabbouleh was good, too. I enjoyed the olives, but would have preferred pitted ones. I’m lazy :)
To sum up the experience, I enjoyed eating at Kebab Flava. I like having cheap dining options w/​o having to eat greasy fast food. Jefferson, the manager, is a friendly guy who’s open to shoot the breeze with anyone stopping by. There is plenty of parking available, and while out the of way from Harbor Blvd., there is signage that will direct you to the restaurant. I see a lot of potential with this dining establishment. Kebab Flava is only open during 11am — 2pm, so there’s a limited window to eat here. If things go well, dinner/​alcohol/​live music are on the horizon. I do hope things go well for Kebab Flava & I will dine here again whenever I’m in the area.
Just a suggestion — Have condiments available at the tables. More convenient for guests.
Recommend!

Well-​done Kebab Flava!
I love to see new places open and do things the right way or at least trying to, it goes along way with me. The food here is very good and of good quality but like Kris K. said it didn’t have any distinct Mediterranean flavors to it but was well prepared nonetheless. I had kebab of each (chicken, shimp and steak) with garlic sauce and a extra pita (.25c) it was very good the sauce helped kick it up a notch. My intention was to come in and grab a couple kebabs as a snack before getting something bigger for lunch, they were once again offering a Groupon so I said what the heck. To my surprise, pleasantly of course the portions were very good for the price, chicken had 5 pieces as did the steak and I think the shrimp was 4… The only real negative for this place is the location they would be far better suited somewhere that has foot traffic and can be lured in be the smell of the charbroiled goodness coming out of the kitchen. Hopefully they can stay around for a while, support them so they can.

We’ve all stayed in hotels, so we know what hotel food is generally like: bland, mass-​produced, cafeteria-​style food. So it is at Kebab Flava.
I got a chicken kebab, a steak kebab, a greek salad, hummus, fries, and a side of garlic sauce.
The chicken and steak were cooked well, but they were missing something: seasoning. Specifically, Mediterreanean seasoning. It was just grilled meat. The salad wasn’t so much a salad so much as it was a heap of chopped veggies with no dressing. The hummus tasted store bought, and it probably was. It had that acidic and heavily salted taste that store-​bought hummus has. The fries were just fries, I can’t imagine how they’d screw that up. The garlic sauce wasn’t really garlic sauce. It was just mashed garlic. Garlic sauce is actually mayonnaise with tons of pureed garlic added.
Overall, I wasn’t impressed, but I suppose I can’t ask for much in a hotel. Think back to eating in your high school cafeteria or the last time you ordered room service to get a good idea of what kind of food to expect here.

I love finding yummy places on Unilocal!:) Originally, I meant to eat at a different Mediterranean place but didn’t realize it was closed until I got there… So I hit up Unilocal and find this place!
I got the Steak Pita Wrap combo and chose a side of fries, cucumber yogurt and hummus all for $ 6! Yummmm! The only thing I had a LITTLE issue with was the pita bread which was a little chewy and hard at the edges. Other than that, everything was fresh and very filling. :)
Service was great and met the owner who was really nice! Can’t wait to come back! :)

I have been here twice and I am sure I’ll return. the CHICKEN breast is amazing — consistent in texture, form, and density… get it! you cannot be disappointed. the shrimp and steak are good, too. although I haven’t had the steak since they made is more juicier, so I assume it must be even better.
I love the garlic sauce!
they don’t add salt, so they encourage you to add to your liking. the cucumber and yogurt thing was ok, but much better w added salt n pepper. check it out!

Went here to check it out. Business just opened on tuesday so we were the only ones there. When you first walk in, the menu is on flatscreen tvs. But the idea of the menu on tvs and the décor just didn’t seem to match. (it felt like a foodtruck menu but at a sitdown place…)
Chicken was tender, meat was well seasoned, and the shrimp was not chewy. You can add a main side and 2 additional sides for $ 2. Just a headsup, their hummus has a strong lemon flavor. Not to my liking… but maybe other ppl will like it. I wish they had tzatziki sauce but instead they have chopped cucumbers with yogurt sauce.
The sauce in the gyro was tasty…
It was cool to check out the new place.
I would only return if they keep the 30% discount. I would rather get greek food from mad greek in stanton or at daphne’s when they have coupons

Had craving for kebab so had to check it out. Location inside HJ hotel but great parking. Owner is super nice. Told him the place needs to be open for longer! First bite of beef– AMAZING! I have diabetes so finding a place to eat where Im not tempted by carbs is hard. Definitely worth checking out!!!
