Freshly baked bread, flavorful hummus, and grilled skewers
"Hummus Bar and Grill in Tarzana is an Israeli spot known for its variety of grilled meats, but you’ll also know a section on the menu called the “Keep ‘Em Coming Assortment” (love the name), a refillable sampler of salads and small plates that you can add-on to any entree for $11 person, or just order by itself for $20 per person. The spread includes eggs salad, baba ganoush, chopped liver, beet salad, tabouli, and spicy eggplant to name a few, plus fresh pita or laffah. There’s also an AYCE daily breakfast combo that includes eggs, labneh, and jerusalem bagels. The refillable “Keep ‘Em Coming Assortment” of mezze $11 per person as an add-on to an entree, or $20 per person by itself" - garrett snyder, brant cox, cathy park, sylvio martins

"In Tarzana I felt closest to Israel at Hummus Bar and Grill: servers and most patrons speak Hebrew, the food is as fresh and flavorful as anything on Dizengoff Street, and I ordered the Jerusalem Mix (chicken breast, thighs, heart, and liver spiced with cumin, sumac, and more, cooked over charcoal) along with hummus and pita. I enjoyed the relaxed patio and dining-room atmosphere, and knowing owner Tal Yona ran a bakery before taking over in 2007 made the pita especially reassuring." - Oren Peleg
"Hummus Bar and Grill is the full Israeli experience: servers that seem like they just finished their stint in the IDF, Hebrew spoken all around, and shakshuka that’s as authentic as any beyond the shores of the Mediterranean. The stew is heightened with a kick of spiciness, and balanced with the sweetness of the roasted vegetables. Order a side of Merguez sausage for added spice and meatiness, otherwise, use the warm pita to sop up whatever’s left." - Oren Peleg
Not a self-serve buffet, but the refillable mezze set acts like one: a parade of salads and dips that keeps coming alongside skewers and grilled mains. Endorsed by The Infatuation and listed on menus as “Keep ’Em Coming” assortments.
