Mediterranean Halal Falafel
(408) 526-0444

This place has the best rice bowls. The spices and the chicken and lamb are seasoned perfectly. Top it off with their homemade hot sauce and cool off with their yogurt sauce. When I'm not as hungry, I get wrap sandwiches, like gyro. The owner is the coolest guy you'll meet and makes you feel like you're at home.

Absolutely amazing place for fresh food. The guys working there / owners are fantastic hosts, I strongly recommend this place. Very very nice food!!

Busy but kind customer service who helped me when my order came out wrong. Highly recommend! Delicious falafel and fries.

Very good Halal food. Most places that serve gyro meat are usually dry and flavorless but the meat served here is very good. Other places make their white sauce too sour but this place got their sauce perfect

The taste was good but the meat and rice were a little dry.

I regularly get the Chicken Gyro and falafel here (the latter with grilled onion and afghan bread is a great, relatively inexpensive afternoon snack). Delicious food and friendly staff.

Had a craving for some Egyptian food after returning from a trip a few months ago. Got tired of eating it over there every day, but now I miss it sometimes, lol.\\nDrove by and saw this Kebab place. Ordered the Lamb kofta and Chicken kofta with vegetables,rice, and salad.\\n\\nFirstly, it's a very generous serving size. The kofta was slightly firm and juicy. Excellent. Vegetables were also grilled nicely. Rice and salad were delicious. The spices used and taste profile of the dish is exactly the type you will encounter in Egypt. Taste itch scratched!\\n\\nDefinitely recommend this place for an authentic Mediterranean tasting meal, and I'm already a repeat customer.

Before writing anything about the food, 5/5 for the service. I arrived at their place a couple minutes after they closed their kitchen for the day at 9:30, but the guys in were very considerate to take my order, and then dished out THE best falafel over rice I have ever had in US! . The rice was really well flavored, falafels were fried fresh, served with mildly seasoned salad and spongy pita bread. Sauces were also really good!! . Bang for your buck with the portion size as well, was easily enough for 2 meals personally! All in all highly recommended place to try, and will definitely visit again. :)

Big fan of this place. They offer the best gyros and kababs. The kababs offered are very tender, moist and juicy. Not to miss is the house made sauce they have, it helps in enhancing the flavors. This place offers one of the best comfort food, highly recommended.

I don't know where to begin with this little hole in wall establishment. I was introduced to them by a coworker over a year ago and every time I'm in the area I make it point to come here. I've really only had the chicken gyro combo because it's so good I just can't bring myself to order anything else.I've been to Michelin star restaurants, I've been the best whatever restaurant in whatever area of the state/country I'm traveling too, and I'll put this gyro up against any of them, especially when you consider the price.It's absolutely delicious and one of the best things I've eaten anywhere hands down. And don't even get me started on that white sauce. I think they put crack in it because it's so addictive.Do yourself a favor and stop by for lunch or dinner. I'm in town for work for 3 days, I'll probably go here 3 times. It's that good.
