Sinbad Mediterranean Cuisine — Restaurant in California

Family owned and operated restaurant with AMAZING Iraqi food!!!

The restaurant is clean and nicely decorated. There are plenty of indoor seating. The staff is super friendly and welcoming.

The menu above the court has lots of yummy options. The two main categories are the juicy Iraqi style burgers and Levant style shawarma.

They also have great appetizers. We ordered the Babaganoosh and stuffed grape leaves. Both were flavorful. Also tried the burgers. The meat is so tender and JUICY... I'm still drooling lol. I preferred the Ali Allammi Burger with grilled onions and grilled tomatoes...it comes with a side of fries. The Clock burger is similar except it has fries stuffed inside the burger in addition to the side of fries. The other difference is fresh vs grilled tomatoes. I personally enjoyed the grilled tomatoes.

The beef shawarma was also very good but I have to admit that I've had better at Sincerely Syria in LA.

I will definitely be returning. Mainly for the JUICY burgers.

Portions are generous and prices are very fair for quiet ingredients and freshenes.

Also, everything is prepared to order. Therefore it takes some time for the food to come out. So be patient. It's worth the...

The best middle eastern restaurant in all of southern San Diego. The food is all very tasteful, well cooked, the cleanest and best ingredients and the timing is great for dine in and take out. The service is excellent, very nice people, welcoming, and respectful especially a gentleman named Farouk, he’s a great asset and his presence is very important as he’s always smiling and helping with the orders and cleaning and checking folks out, doing his best all the time. Atmosphere doesn’t get any better than this. Cleanest restaurant in the area. The workers all don’t have a single spot of sauce or anything on their uniform nor the floor nor the tables and even the bathroom is complete. You don’t even hear them yelling or being loud. From when you place your order to leaving the place you feel at home. They are simply the best then everyone else comes after. If there was a way to give more than 5 stars to everything I would’ve done it. My family and I will certainly keep going there and recommending them to our family...

was excited to try this restaurant, especially because they offer halal food, and I always try to support local businesses. My first visit was great – I loved the chicken sandwich, and the atmosphere was welcoming and cozy, which made it a pleasant dining experience.

However, my second visit was less impressive. The burger meat was great, but the buns were served cold, which really affected the overall taste. Additionally, I ordered the meat plate with hummus, and the bread with that was also cold, which was disappointing. I made sure to inform the cashier, respectfully asking her to pass the feedback on to the manager, hoping it would help improve the quality of the food. Unfortunately, I don’t think she did.

While I had hoped to return, I’m hesitant to do so now. It’s unfortunate because the first experience was enjoyable, but I feel like the consistency just isn’t there. It’s always important for businesses to listen to feedback, and I wanted to share mine in the hope that it will be taken into...
