Best Middle Eastern Restaurants in South Gate

Met my friends from high school on a Monday since it was President’s Day holiday. We had a wonderful time! Thank you 🥰

One of few restaurants in LA that is open late. Food is yum & the ambiance is great. Always a good time at Laya.

Our favorite neighborhood spot. The food is always extraordinary. We had couple of less than stellar experiences out of many the were, in fact, stellar. Lately and especially yesterday, the experience was fantastic. Everyone was friendly. The service was paced perfectly. We took friends from out of town to experience Saffy’s and they could not stop raving about every dish. We all had a hard time picking the best of the night. Great spot. Highly recommended. RG.

The farm cheese is the best at Bavel. My husband and I also love the baba ghanoush (we always need an extra order of fried pita). The grilled dates have a nice kick to it and it was nice to eat a savory date for once. The lamb rack is always cooked to perfection. Our friend always orders the 26 oz ribeye and finishes it during dinner and my husband and I can see why. Nothing at Bavel disappointed us. I would recommend the cashew ice cream bar over the apple prune cake, but you really can't go wrong with either. It was a great dinner! Also every cheese and milk is pasteurized so despite being 6 months pregnant, I could eat everything!

Great place with amazing food, service was good but it was a slow night. Felt like I had to keep flagging down someone for service. Service used to be top notch. Food is still good!
