“Oren's hummus offers authentic Israeli hummus in a convenient spot in Palo Alto. Service is quick and efficient

Reccomend the lamb kebabs with rice, they were really juicy and had a deep lamb flavour which paired well with the fragrant rice“

“Very tasty and reasonably priced food. The owner and chef Amir is an amazing guy who always makes you feel welcomed and is very dedicated towards his craft.“

“This is a takeout only place and their falafels are VERY GOOD! The fries and hummus were just okay. I ordered Heaven's Pita Pocket and it was HEAVENLY, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐! So savory for a vegetarian dish. Great texture that melded well with the sauces in this Pita Pocket. The Home Made Fries were okay and the Hummus was okay, maybe ⭐⭐⭐. I'd recommend coming for the Falafels and will be returning just for that!“

“This place is great! Feels like authentic Israeli street food. The prices are very reasonable with good portion sizes. The food tastes so fresh and really delicious. We had the shawarma hummus plate, shnitzel pita, falafel, and fries. All were delicious and I'd recommend! The best of the bunch of definitely the shnitzel pita.

The only down side is it's all semi-outdoor picnic seating, however they have heaters up so it's not too cold to sit and enjoy your meal.“

“Delicious, fresh ALWAYS food. Check out the hummus when made by the lady owner. It is the smoothest, most delicious I have ever eaten!“

“Sarahi somehow manages to educate you on the menu, ensure a clean table, and communicates your wishes for the perfect meal to the cooking team all while giving you a welcoming smile. Something about a perfect swirl froyo afterward makes this experience beyond satisfactory. The City of Good Living is lucky to have this gem with such a kind staff.“

“When it comes to Mediterranean food, Falafel Tazah truly stands out. I've been a loyal customer at all of their locations for over ten years, and I can honestly say I've never had a bad meal. Their chicken and veggie kabobs are my go-to favorites, and their falafels, hands down the best I've ever had. Their food certainly lives up to the name with that unmistakable fresh taste every single time.

The restaurant is always spotless and impeccably maintained, which adds to the whole experience. The owner is genuinely one of the friendliest people you'll meet and goes out of his way to make sure every customer leaves happy.

Keep up the amazing work, Team Falafel Tazah!“

“Great veggie burger. Will go back.“

“Falafel Taza is one of those places that instantly feels right the moment you walk in. Family-owned, warm, welcoming, and proudly serving authentic Lebanese food that’s clearly made with care and tradition.

The food is straight-up delicious. The falafel is crisp on the outside, fluffy and flavorful on the inside not dry, not greasy, just perfect. Everything tastes fresh, balanced, and thoughtfully seasoned. You can tell these recipes weren’t rushed or copied they’re passed down, practiced, and respected.

What really seals it is the vibe. There’s a genuine, homegrown family energy here friendly faces, real conversations, and people who actually care that you enjoy your meal. It doesn’t feel transactional; it feels personal.

If you’re craving Lebanese food that’s comforting, authentic, and consistently hits, Falafel Taza is an easy go-to. Simple, soulful food done right the kind of spot you’re happy to support again and again.“
