Naan Hut

Pleasantly surprised — food was delicious. Take home a baked-​on-​the-​spot sangak flatbread and it will last you for days

Great customer service ! && fast. Will be coming by more often, glad to have this hidden gem healthy restaurant in the area :) their bread, wraps & kabob are so yummmm

I’m a fan of naan bread, so me and my friends decided to go to this place. We tried their Chicken wrap, Salmon wrap, Beef plate, Hummus, and Soda Yoghurt. This place came with a very reasonable price for its price. They seasoned the meat nicely, it smelt so good. The meat for all the dishes that we tried were tender, and well seasoned. The plate was sooo huge tho, it was served with an abundant amount of rice. I always love the rice from any Persian Restaurants, since it always smells so good. You can definitely share it with a friend and still feel super full. I like how they make their own bread for every dishes that they serve. The hummus was perfect, it was better than any hummus that I’ve ever taste before especially for the bread. For the drink, I recommend you to try their Soda Yoghurt. I was curious about it and so I tried. It was a new fun experience for me to drink a Soda Yoghurt, I don’t know if I can find any Soda Yoghurt in any place. The parking was on the street beside it.

Their sangak bread is the best. Today I discovered their kabob sandwich as well… this is soooo yummy, quite like hamburgers but wrapped in sangak bread comes with a really tasty dressing.

This place is top notch they have the best pizza in town the bread and sandwiches are amazing and the service is outstanding

Amazing food, amazing service. We had the chicken kebab sandwich on sangak bread, lamb halim and hot tea. Food came out fresh, within minutes, and all for a total less than $ 20. Also got sangak bread to go which is incredibly delicious. Highly recommended!

Spectacular. Amazing food, warm service and unreal portion sizes. I’m obsessed with this place. You should be, too, if you aren’t already.

Since we’re temporarily relocated in the area during remodeling, we’ve tried out Café 50’s for breakfast (excellent, by the way) and now Naan Hut for dinner. Very good indeed! The place is known for its sangak bread, an order of this is almost mandatory. As the LA Times’ Jonathan Gold wrote in his column, it’s hard to stop eating the bread (so much for any attempt at low carb).The chicken plate was amazing, tender and delicious and a generous portion. The Shish Kebab was also very good, but I did like the chicken a little better. The veggies were perfectly grilled.
The surprise is the pizza. My boys split a chicken pizza which, of course, dad had to sample. It was one of the better pizzas I’ve ever had, and that’s after returning from Chicago a couple of weeks ago (full disclosure, I do prefer thin crust vs. deep dish, so that may disqualify me). Quite unexpected!
We’re planning to check out some more of the numerous restaurants on Santa Monica Blvd., but this one warrants a return visit.
OK, maybe one more piece of the sangak bread.

Great pizza 5 star !
I don’t eat pizza but
This place yes !!! So good
I am enjoy this pizza great job well done !!

I love this place. I’m looking forward to going back again soon. The sangak bread is amazing but a family size portion, so between two adults we weren’t able to finish it all before it got hard. Some deli items (eggplant dip, yogurt/​cucumber sauce) I took home were great as well. I got a shawarma wrap and it was generous portion and came with a side salad. It was delicious.
It’s a small place, basically a couple tables, deli items in fridges on one wall, and a counter. There are also quite a few people coming in and out to buy bread, so it’s not a relaxing place to linger and hang out, but perfect as fresh and healthy lunch stop.

This place does have amazing food, and I used to come here all the time. But after seeing what I saw, I will NEVER be coming back.
I’d ordered a steak shawarma, and all was going great until I literally saw the guy making my food eat off of it while he was making it! Putting food into his mouth and using those same hands to continue making my food!
Not only that, one of the pieces of steak that I’d ordered was apparently for the staff to share, as the cook ate a piece and offered some to his coworker. Even after doing all of this he gave me that same plate he’d been eating out of, to which I refused of course

This review is for the sangak bread only. Sangak bread is a typical Persian bread made in a large stone oven. The dough is slapped onto the wall of the stone oven and it is a very thin, in parts crunchy and in parts doughy, and tasty bread. It is a long oblong shape. Due to health code regulations, and because in Iran actual pieces of stone attach to the bread that you have to remove, they cannot use a real stone oven in the US. However, this is the closest to the real thing that I have tasted here.
The bread is prepared fresh and served to you hot. Most people take it to go to eat at home. It is a bread used for breakfast with cheese or butter and jam. You are limited to two «loaves» per customer. Sometimes they run out, which is sad, because we only stop to get it when we are in West L.A. once or twice a month visiting my parents. At the end of the day you can only get Sangak that was already prepared earlier in the day and wrapped in plastic. If you get the freshly prepared, right out of the oven bread, it is wrapped in paper and piping hot and I dare anyone to resist eating at least half of it in the car on the way home!

Service was great. Friendly and accomodating. We had the Naan combo pizza and hummas. It was soo so delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant… #foodiemobatp

Friendly staff! Great service! Our pizza is fresh and delicious! And hummus is on point! #foodiemobATP

Fresh sangak bread for $ 3.50! It takes delicious and I highly recommend it with some Feta and fresh sliced cucumbers and tomatoes. The best feta can be found at trader joes, it’s called Pastures of Eden (I think) and it’s a product of Israel. Go but some sangak and feta and enjoy!

The olovie here is yummy. It’s basically a potato and chicken salad and it’s quite tasty. The bread is soft and fluffy too.
The chicken in their chicken plate is very sparse. Kinda like the size of 5 McDonald’s nuggets. They give lots of rice.

I’m writing this review while waiting 20 minutes for 1 chicken wrap to be made while I am one of two customers in the place. I should have turned around when it took them several minutes to greet me.
Unfortunately I gave them a chance and only after paying was I told it would take 20 minutes! This is a quick service restaurant lacking the speed and service the layout would imply. The bread and meat are already made so not sure why it takes so long but, it does. Would never return based on these two factors but the food was also meh.

This place is amazing!
The sangak bread is incredible– and HUGE!
I had the chicken kabab and it was delicious.
I met the owner and he was very friendly.
Highly recommended!!!

not sure why it’s called naan hut, since this place is not an indian joint. it’s a persian place with shish kabobs, koobideh, yogurt cucumber, etc… misnomer aside, this place is quite delicious and does very creative and fun things with the ingredients they use. their primary bread is the sangak bread that they make fresh every day — big sheets of bread that have a nice soft consistency (almost perpetually). anyway, they use this versatile bread to make wraps and more interestingly, to make pizzas. their pizzas on this delicious bread rock.
punchline is this — tasty food and fun twists on persian classics. they relatively recently renovated their place and actually adjusted their hours. before this they were a crap shoot to be open or not. closing at like 5pm randomly and stuff. now they are consistent and are open late, so more reliable in that respect.
update 8÷27÷15 — I just learned naan means bread in Farsi. so there you go. I stand corrected

Love the Sangak bread. As you’ve likely read from the other reviews, yes, it’s true you get a blanket of sangak bread for only $ 3. It’s way too much for one or even two, three, four people to consume at a sitting. Because the bread is baked fresh every day and has no presevatives, you should freeze the rest to preserve for later and then put in the oven to heat up when you want to consume. Do not just store in the fridge as it will be very doughy afterwards. Also, when you get the bread you should ask them to let it cool down on their shelf for 5 mins so that it fully «breathes» and is less doughy.
Yes you’ll have to wait a few minutes to get your freshly baked bread but that’s only normal.
As for the other food offered, I’ve tried the combo and cheese pizzas and have to say they we’re really really yummy. Different but delicious. Especially for those who like thin crust. But for my everyday bread needs, sangak is the way to go.
BTW: For all those saying that the name naan hut is misleading because it necessarily implies Indian food, you should know that: «The word Naan is actually derived from the Persian word ‘non’ which refers to bread, and initially appeared in English Literature dating back to 1780 in a travelogue of William Tooke.»
