I've been here twice and was satisfied with the food and service both times. We ordered  kabab platter with the most amazing chicken kabob I've ever had. And the rice was perfection! The baba ghanouj did the job as well. I love the ambience of this restaurant and will definitely recommend it and come back. 4 stars for the customer service which they have room to improve on ;) More...

Can't wait to return just for the food. The service is a miss, they don't come up and check on you to refill drinks for r ask if anything else is needed. I would give a five star if the service was good.The food is delicious and fresh. Portions are huge and the price is decent. More...

We just had a lunch here. The place was very elegant and clean. The staff was friendly. The food was excellent and plenty. We had a Mix Grill meat plate and also Mixed Grill Fish plate. All three meat items lamb, chicken, and beef were prepared just right. The two types of rice were soft, mist, and delicious. The fish mix was appetizing. Grilled fish was so tender.  The price was reasonable for the similar dinners in the area. Overall, my guest and I had really enjoyed the lunch. I would definitely visit this place again. More...

If you are new to Middle Eastern Cuisine, start here at Desert Moon Grill. It is simply the best.  The atmosphere is great. The waiters seem to speak fluent English and Arabic. They are also helpful in ordering. This is not just another strip mall restaurant in Little Arabia.  The food is very very good.  We had the grape leaves appetizer followed by mixed meat swarma plate. It could not be better. The grape leaves $7 were not tart. The portion size of the swarma plates $15 was very large. The chicken, lamb, and beef were very tasty.  You can not go wrong. Opps. The parking can be a real problem.  I was wondering if it would be ok, to park in the lot behind the bank. More...

This restaurant by far is the best Mediterranean restaurant around.  I love the food, so I have tried many, many places.  I have made this place my most favorite in this cuisine.  Our waitress was lovely and suggested a dessert I haven't tried before......WOW.  A milk pudding piece with pistachios and honey on top.  EVERYTHING I ate today was OUTSTANDING.  Grape leaves, chicken shawarma, BTW.. try the mango juice too. Highly recommended. More...

This is by far the best middle eastern restaurant. We came here around 9 months ago and when we walked in they remembered us. The manager and staff really go above and beyond and it was by far the best hospitality we have experienced. My husband who is not middle eastern ordered the rib eye kabob and told me it was the best he had in his life. My brother got the lamb kabob and said the same. The rest of us shared two combination plates of beef and seafood, everything was superb.the tabouleh and humus are a must try! We also tried the beef toshka and it was great.the portion size is huge and we had to take some home. It was my brothers birthday and they really made him feel special and gave us a generous piece of desert (forgot what it's called but it's crusty on the bottom with white topping and pistashio). It was delicious. I have to say that this place has improved sooooo much since our last visit. We will definitely go more often. Thank you More...

Great service, atmosphere, and food. If you want authentic Arabic food, this is your place. Meat dishes and the appetizers are my personal favorite here. They also have Arabic black tea that pairs well with the appetizers in my opinion. If you are not too familiar with Arabic food, they still have familiar/standard dishes. More...

I'd definitely recommend Desert Moon to anyone visiting the Anaheim area! The restaurant's atmosphere has an upscale Mediterranean feel while still maintaining the uniqueness of a family owned establishment. The staff was also extremely hospitable from the moment we stepped into the establishment, they even offered us some free dessert at the end of our dinner!  I'd love to see this restaurant open up on the east coast because of how tasty and enjoyable our experience was More...

This place is under new ownership. The owner Samir took time to introduce himself to us while we were here for dinner.  We ordered the family style mixed grill that consisted of lamb kabob, chicken and kifta on a bed of two types of rice topped with pine nuts and garnished with grilled tomatoes and onions. . The food is served in large portions that feeds 5 and we still managed to take plenty of leftovers!  Excellent homemade pita bread! Prior to your meal you are served hummus, eggplant and fetoush salad. The desert is unbelievably delicious. Our servers Naser and Rima made sure that you felt right at home and never seized from keeping a smile despite the rush hour.  If your looking for authentic Mediterranean food this is top of the line 5 star in services and food! Looking forward to coming here more often! More...
