Noura Cafe

Noura Cafe, Los Angeles

Noura Cafe is our favorite place to go for a casual meal.  We love its delicious mid-eastern food; the greek salad, kabobs, hummos, baba ghanooj, tabbouleh, and baklava are super good and inexpensive to boot.  You order at the counter and they bring the food to your table.  The decor is exotic, filled with greenery and twinkling lights, and you can also eat in the pretty garden out back.  A real find, 8479 Melrose Ave, almost at the corner of LA Cienega.  (323) 651-4582.
