    Very tasty food & one best food places on The Promenade. But it's ridiculous that at a place called Hummus Bar you can't get hummus as a side when ordering a plate that includes 2 sides. Seriously???

    The pita is so thick and soft it just melts in your mouth!! Try the chicken shawarma and Nutella & bananas pita for dessert. :) Oh, and check in on Yelp to get a free soft drink!

    Can't compare to original Hummus Bar in Ventura but its nice if your craving the food and don't want to make the drive. They don't have laffa with zatar either.

    I've never encountered any bigger cockroach than this one. I was eating there and it was walking beside us!!! I think this restaurant needs to pay more attention to the cleaning. DISLIKE!

    Some one said the Shawarma was not good. It was fantastic, I couldn't disagree more. The French fries on the other hand were soggy. Tasty but soggy. Israeli salad was delish too. I'll be back.

    The "count on us" toppings vary depending on what you order, so if you're particular, enumerate.

    They just opened to I'll give them the benefit of the doubt that they will work out the kinks. But there is nothing express about this place. The food is fantastic though!!!!

    Food was fresh and pita was enough for two. Ice tea freshly brewed. If not, sure tasted like it was. A lot for your money

    I had to send my sandwich back because it was cold and they replaced it with another cold one == when they actually give you hot food it can be good but the managers here need to learn about QA

    The worst chicken shawarma in my life. I live in Middle East so I can tell how real chicken shawarma tastes. This one tastes more like a chicken curry.
