Fantastic little hole in the wall spot. Very clean atmosphere. Fantastic service and the food is quite delicious. I normally eat meat but I was craving something vegetarian with hummus and falafel and I tried the original. It is really good and filling. I read in another review that it's even better with garlic sauce on top and I forgot to get the garlic sauce and I wish I got the garlic sauce. What I did get though is the baklava and the fries and they were both fresh and delicious and the baklava is really flaky. If I'm ever in the area again I will be back for another visit to try the beef shawarma. I highly recommend.

The food here is delicious. Their sandwiches and falafels are sooo worth it. They’re packed with fresh ingredients, full of flavor, and will surely satisfy your cravings. Everything tastes well-seasoned and freshly made. Definitely a spot worth coming back to if you want a really good wrap. Always my go to spot for something simple, yet so bomb!! And the place itself? The vibe is always great, clean, chill, and overall just a good environment. Always greeted with a warm welcome, so you feel the love, my favorite part about family owned businesses :). Always such a great experience. Make sure to come and check Falafel California outtttt!!!!!!

Holy wow. It's hard to find a middle eastern style place that does good gyro, but this place isn't just good - it's GREAT. The wrap was filling with plenty of protein inside, juicy, and every other ingredient in it was perfect. Compared to other restaurants, the value of how much you pay for the amount of protein you get is worth much more here. I had never tried Falafel until today. I would absolutely eat it again. The rice included was airy and fresh, and the fact that I liked the hummus was surprising ti me. I never liked hummus much. I will be coming here again. I also think that if was through delivery, it would be just the same. Cannot recommend this place enough.

I had one of the most delicious Shawarma in California! I am lebanese and I can never find an authentic spot for Shawarma and Falafel, but this place came in clutch! I definitely recommend trying their California Falafel, and Chicken Shawarma sandwich. You will not regret it. Also, Zina was super sweet and helpful with our order!

Having lived in the Gulf on and off for a few years let me just say this place feels like a true home cooked meal! The portion sizes were generous, and the quality of ingredients felt fresh. If you enjoy Middle Eastern dishes I highly recommend you come check them out-you won’t be disappointed.
