“I had such a great experience at Falafel California! I ordered the California Falafel wrap and it was absolutely delicious—fresh, flavorful, and perfectly put together. You can really taste the quality in every bite.

What made it even better was the owner, Zina. Her passion for what she does really shines through, not just in the food but in the whole vibe of the place. It’s clear she truly cares about her business and her customers.

Definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to. Highly recommend!“

“The salatim platter was amazing, with so many delicious sides, including hummus, muhammara, cucumber yogurt, green tahini, shallot yogurt, pickles, olives, and dukkah, all served with naan, roasted garlic fry bread, and pita. I also loved the Soltani platter, especially with the added steak kebab. The chicken tahchin was incredible and came with the most delicious tahdig. Nicholas was an amazing waiter—professional, attentive, and provided excellent service. The ambiance is absolutely beautiful, and this is the most stunning Persian restaurant I have ever visited in the US. I would eat here every day if I lived in San Diego.“
