What our guests are saying
Ordered a beef shawarma plate and a side of falafel with a triangle baklava for dessert all to go. I must say the falafel smell coming from the bag was so enticing that I couldn’t help but try it on the short walk home and the first bite into that crispy falafel pillow was amazing. The beef shawarma plate was large and had excellent combination of fresh flavors. It will be hard for me to resist spending $5 on a falafel snack anytime I’m walking by but I’m not mad at it 😆

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!!!!!!

I recently visited Falafel California and really enjoyed my experience. The place has a nice Middle Eastern vibe, and the food tasted authentic and fresh. The dishes were delicious — especially the falafel and shawarma — full of flavor and well-prepared. Ordering was quick and easy, and the service was friendly and efficient. The prices were also pretty reasonable for the quality and portions. Definitely a great spot if you’re craving Middle Eastern food!
