Marouch Restaurant is truly a hidden gem in Hollywood serving some of the best Lebanese and Armenian food in LA. The flavors are rich, authentic, and hand made. Service is warm and welcoming, making you feel like family. Don't leave without trying the baklava. It's some of the best I have ever had! Definitely coming back for more! Highly recommend!

Absolutely great tasting food. We got the shawarma mix plate, and it was all great. The garlic sauce was killer too. The portions were huge!

Just awesome. We got some kabob and fatayer. Just great great service, and everything was super flavorful and fresh, not to mention the great ambience. I'll be back!!

Delicious food, Dessert and amazing service..... 10/10 Very nice and clean inside....

Atmospheric Lebanese Armenian run restaurant that is decorated as though it's in an old stone masonry building with faux arches. 0) Torshi/salt brined pickles of earthy red beets; pepperoni; small earthy, salty black olives along with Pita bread serves as a complimentary, "poor man's" Mezze which can be used later as accoutrement for the coming ordered dishes. 1) Gyro Lamb Shawarma is thyme scented, pleasantly slightly gamey, soft but with a touch of chaw. However, it was over cooked and might have been left under a heat lamp too long. 1a) Creamy, thick Hummus has a pleasant mouth feel, touch of lemon juice, garlic, sesame paste. 1b) Crunchy quick sautéed, funky-spicy onion w/ Somagh/sweet-sour dried, ground sumac fruit sprinkled on top. 1c) Short grain rice, butter scented, touch al dente was the main starch dish garnished with ice berg lettuce. 1d) Watery Tahini ground sesame dressing. 1e) Garnish of sliced Roma tomato, ice berg lettuce & parsley. All the above ingredients can be mixed and matched to be placed on pieces of Pita bread. 2) Ferry/quail: This may be the signature dish at Marouch. The two quails seem salt brined in a complex, smoky, aromatic herb mix like Za'atar which can contain thyme, marjoram, oregano. This deep infusion creates flavours that complement the meaty quail meat. Unfortunately, the quails were a bit overcooked over the grill so that meat, although fairly moist, became too firm and hard in spots. However, overall an excellent dish if one doesn't mind extracting the small bones from the meat. 2a) The boiled potatoes, that then seems baked, has a hint of sweetness and is paired with a luscious lemon, garlic, sour yogurt like sauce velouté that pairs so well. 2b) Slowly cooked caramelized onions were sweet, mellow, soft. 2c) Drizzling of agrodolce/sweet-sour, viscous pomegranate syrup really added a contrasting accent to all the herbalness. 2d) same above rice 1-2a) There are interesting wines from Lebanon influenced by French technique since France occupied Lebanon where Beirut was once called the Paris of the Middle East. However, you have to buy a full bottle so ordered the next best thing, beer from Beirut. Almaza Pilsener Pale Lager 4.2% is mild, smooth, refreshing, touch sweet with almost subliminal hops herbalness. A neutral tasting beer mainly serving as a palate cleanser. Dessert: 3) Mahalabie is like an Italian Panna Cotta where gelatine is added to sweetened milk. Slivered crunchy almonds, plumped sultana raisins, powdered pistachio are scattered along with a shallow pool of sweet rose water. Good light dessert that refreshes the palate. 4) Baklava here is a delight using a generous amount of crushed, fresh walnuts that exudes a sweet, hint of nutty, oily woodiness. Addition of dark seemingly caramelized honey has the perfect sweetness along with powdered pistachio. The ultra thin, multi-layered baked flaky, ethereally light, yet taut Filo pastry was exemplary. A must get at Marouch. I came on two different occasions: My waitress was cordial, up to the job and was welcoming. The waiter né Syria was more informed about the cuisine, and so he was able to answer my questions about food ingredients which I very much appreciated. However, two male staff members just stolidly, sphinx-like stood or sat without greeting or acknowledging in coming guests that created a disinterested, uncaring feeling to the restaurant. But that was a minor detail. The Ferry & Baklava were notable for great execution. 4- stars

Words can't even describe how delicious this place is. I vouch for the filet mignon plate.

Lebanese always sounds good on a Thursday night, or any night really. I walked in and was surprised at how small the restaurant is, but honestly I say keep it that way. The aura inside is really intimate and home-y. We had a table of 6 and they sat us really quickly and the server was super nice and attentive! We ended up each ordering something different to share between all of us and while I can't remember every dish we got, literally everything was delicious. I specifically remember all the meats being really good, along with the falafel and their garlic sauce. How can anyone hate garlic sauce, or even just garlic? I just don't get it. Like how? garlic and onion are the literal staples of any food and I can't get enough of it and there's people out here who just... don't like it... like?? This spot is honestly so cozy and so intimate, I could spend literal hours here for a date or something. If you're looking for Lebanese and you're in the area, come to Marouch. The staff are amazing, parking can be a little bit of a hassle but I promise you it's worth it.

Been coming here for years and I can't believe I've never written a review. Marouch is a Lebanese restaurant with the most amazing food. They have tons of vegan options and of course non vegan options which my husband enjoys. But since I'm vegan let me list off my favorite dishes! Their Full Mudammas live in my dreams...fava beans seasoned to perfection, the Muhammara also another favorite of mine and you can't go wrong with their hummus. All enjoyed with their freshly made pita and complimentary pickled veggies. For my entree I love their Moujadara which is a delicious mix of lentils and rice. Ooh also you have to get their garlic sauce....Zankou could never! They also offer beer and wine. Service is always welcoming and friendly. Extra points for having a parking lot right out front.

It's kind of a hole in the wall spot that's located in a small plaza right next to 7-11. Small parking lot on site so parking is easy. Also, they take reservation through open table, which makes it stressful free for larger group. The six of us came by on a Saturday for an early dinner. The service was superb- our waitress was so attentive and friendly. The owner even came out to greet us. Very homey vibe. They had a wide menu selections for appetizers, entrees, and drinks (including alcoholic drinks like Lebanese beer and non-alcoholic drinks like jallab). Food came out really fast and everything was tasty. The Six of us ordered the appetizers for four people and shared two entrees (lamp chop and chicken kabob/ shish tawook), and the portion was perfect. My personal favorites were the hummus, fried cheese, chicken kabob, and the rice. It turned out to be pricer than expected but I guess that's because all of us ordered drinks and overall, it was reasonably priced. I'd totally come back again!
