This place is amazing. However, kind of annoying that is cash only. The staff are super helpful & friendly. And nearly half of their menu is vegan! I got the vegetarian make your own combo for $15, which is pretty reasonable considering how much food you get. Their baba ganoush & Tabolueh is so good!
Pain in the ***! Me,...I was a pain....but the owner was so honest and still mad Amy Turkish coffee iced. What can I say, not at all the way it "should be", but I was having serious hot flashes and all I wanted was their coffee while visting in town. Their falafels are sooooo good, kiddo loved the fries. Thank you!!!
Amazing falafels!!! Loved the veg falafel burger. Small cute place. People are friendly. Cash only!
Love this little place & I like supporting small, family owned businesses. I pick up from here when I’m looking for something quick and simple. Haven’t dined in as it’s a little on the smaller side but the beach isn’t far. Best falafels!
Tasty food. Gyro pita needed more tahini sauce, the sandwich ate a little dry. Also, wish they offered classic options for french fry dips -- e.g., mayo, honey mustard, yellow mustard. The fries are good but ketchup, tahini, and hot sauce are all kinda meh for dip options.
Overall I was very pleased and will be trying this place again!
Pretty good food for a pretty decent price..good lunch spot while cruising along coastal hwhy..& it's halal meaning all my Muslim friends can enjoy some good halal options here.
Falafel of Santa Cruz has great tasting falafel, humus, and chicken schwarma. The prices are reasonable, and if you order ahead, the food will be ready for you when you get there.
As others have mentioned, the place isn't fancy, but the people are super-friendly and the food is terrific. We like to get the food to go, then head to the beach and eat in the car.
