The food is really standard mediocre Mediterranean fare. The service is a bit below average. We were told that we couldnt use a 20% off coupon we had, because we had ordered drinks off a "Thirsty Thursday" menu. The coupon only said it was void if you order off the "Happy Hour" menu which is in fact separate from the "Thirsty Thursday" menu. So we overpaid as well. The shawarma was not spiced very well. The pita and hummus were standard. My wifes salad was very plain. I went here once before just for drinks, and the whiskey drinks were actually pretty good. Stay away from the feta appetizer. They barely give any feta on it (4 tiny strips). If youre looking for much better food I highly recommend Skafs or Elenas. Both are in Glendale.

We visited the Diplomat with a few friends and were slightly disappointed. Their drinks are decent but not the best. Our waiter was very friendly and never let our water run low. We did try a few things Tapas, but everything was flavorless. We were not very impressed and left hungry. It is a neat place to sit and enjoy company with friends, but maybe just for a drink.

The food and drinks were very good, unfortunately the service my girlfriend and I received from our bartender was not good to say the least, and it wasnt just us; the couple next to us were saying the same exact thing about the poor service of this particular employee. You would think they would have their A TEAM working on a friday night.

Mouth watering Mediterranean food. The tzaziki is delicious, and they put the freshest feta in their dishes. I got the vegetarian greek salad and it was so yummy. Im craving it right now and want to go back soon! Also, the waitress was very nice and knowledgable about the food and drink menu.

The cocktails are fun and inventive. Different discount everyday of the week. We went on Wine and Whiskey Wednesday. $2 off for a glass of wine or whiskey drink. $6 off a bottle. Great apps too. Had the humus with steak. Really good. Surprised I hadnt had this before.

We were welcomed with a smile & seated right away. Our server Carli was very friendly & helpful with suggestions. Our drinks & appetizers were on our table in no time. The food was amazing! The live entertainment was interactive. Outstanding experience.

Each Mediterranean menu is different, and The Diplomat had a great variety to choose from. We ordered lamb chops, steak tartar, salmon and great apatizers! Service was very great and the chef knocked us out. 5 stars

Great food. Got Potato Boreg, Greek Salad, and the chicken kebab! Everyone enjoyed their food. The 4 stars is just for the wait. Service and atmosphere was perfect for Friday night outing.
