"Open since 1982, Marouch is one of the longest-standing Armenian/Lebanese restaurants in Hollywood and a pillar of the surrounding community. You can certainly come to this family-run institution and find solid plates of shawarma and kabab combination platters, but Marouch’s greatness lies in their mezze. Muhammara (red pepper and pomegranate seed dip), sugok (crispy Armenian sausage), hummus with ful, and perfectly cooked falafel—bring as many people as you can to Marouch, because there are simply too many great things to order." - brant cox, cathy park
"Open since 1982, Marouch is one of the longest-standing Armenian/Lebanese restaurants in Hollywood and a pillar of the surrounding community. It’s also one of the best places to eat shawarma in the city, but Marouch’s real magic lies in its mezze. Gather as many friends as possible, maybe even invite your neighbor, and order tons because it all stands out there: smoky-sweet muhammara, spicy sugok, and a kiddie pool-sized bowl of hummus overflowing with ful." - sylvio martins, brant cox

Come as hungry as you can, because we can’t eliminate the red pepper and pomegranate muhammara, crispy sugok, hummus with ful, or the crunchy falafel from our essential order list." - brant cox, sylvio martins
"A mezze spread is always a safe bet when you can't decide on lunch, and few places do mezze better than Marouch in East Hollywood. This iconic Lebanese/Armenian spot is somewhere you can take your coworkers for a midday icebreaker disguised as a group meal. There are over 25 dishes to choose from, ranging from nutty muhammara to sugok and tangy tabbouleh, and some bigger entree items like kabobs and lamb chops if you're craving more substantial protein. Marouch gives you options, but make sure you leave room for the baklava." - sylvio martins, jess basser sanders, brant cox
"Marouch has been in operation since 1982, and is one of the city's longest-standing Armenian/Lebanese restaurants. Plain and simple, it’s an institution. And while many people come to this Hollywood strip mall spot for their incredible mezze (the muhammara will change you), no meal is complete here without an order of their beef shawarma. Perfectly barbecued and covered in a special house marinade, it’s sweet and salty with just the right amount of spice." - brant cox, nikko duren, sylvio martins
