If you've got Mediterranean on the mind, a recent opening is need-to-know. Called saffRON Mediterranean Kitchen, the new addition is located at 7600 Balboa Blvd., Suite 109 in Van Nuys.
The international fast-casual chain — with additional locations in Agoura Hills and Mission Viejo — "embodies the spirit and flavors of Mediterranean cuisine," says the business on its website.
Menu offerings include build-your-own pita, tacos and bowls, complete with proteins such as chicken, falafel and beef. Small bites and extras are on offer as well, along with desserts like baklava and saffron ice cream. (You can view the full menu here.)
With a 4.5-star rating out of 18 reviews on Yelp so far, the newcomer has been warmly received by patrons.
David P., who was among the first Yelpers to review the new spot on Sept. 15, wrote, "I ordered a hummus bowl with beef shawarma. ... The bowl was delicious, with everything from the hummus to the vegetables to the shawarma tasting fresh."
"The food is super fresh and quality," added Yelper Gamlet A. "It's a brand new restaurant. I love the cleanliness and quality of the food. I will definitely come back again."
