Tanya's Lebanese Kabab

It was the middle of the week and Wednesday calls for a mini venture out to follow Hubz around his work sites, which led me to exploring Uplands, CA. I was having some major cravings for Mediterranean food and found Tanya’s on google! The area is not the most modern or bustling area ever, when we arrived for lunch it was around 12pm and the restaurant was empty. During our visit there were a couple of patrons in and out, also a few making takeout orders. I’m assuming the lady who took my order is Tanya, and I'm assuming she was also by herself as she was the only one coming in and out to verify orders and cash people out. Wait time for our food took about half an hour so this is not the choice for something quick unless you plan and try to call ahead! Fried Kibbeh - ($5.50) - Freshly fried and piping hot, her flavors and the crust were perfect. The side of hummus and a gallop of garlic sauce was delicious! Chicken Shawarma - ($8.99) - Chicken was a tad dry, rice was insanely mushy, sal

This is a great little storefront restaurant that serves terrific Lebanese food. The service is pleasant and friendly. The prices are reasonable. And they still have some of the best mutabal ever. Also loved the fried kibbeh. My one complaint is that the pita bread was dried, out but the rest of the food was terrific--bright, fresh salads are a treat.

Visited this restaurant due to craving Mediterranean food. Decided to order food here because of the reviews. The food lacked taste, mushy and dry. The restaurant definitely needs some TLC and some cleaning. We won’t be visiting here again.
