Falafel Of Santa Cruz

Wedding catering from Falafel of Santa Cruz was absolutely incredible! A lot of people told us that no one remembers the food from a wedding. They were wrong. We are so glad we took our time to choose Sam and the Falafel team, our guests made so many comments about the food afterward, it was such a hit. Working with Sam was very easy and he had an amazing menu picked out for us in no time that covered all of our guests needs from meat eaters to vegetarians and vegans. Cheese pies and stuffed dates as appetizers and unbelievably tender and flavorful filet mignon and chicken kababs were accompanied by at least 10 different sides that delighted us and our guests. Sam and his team arrived early which relieved stress from the coordinator and were amazing from start to finish. Attentive, friendly, and knowledgable about the food -- they guided our guests through the extensive and exotic spread, keeping everything full, tidy, and looking great til the end. And even packed up leftovers for us to have at our hotel after! Thank you so much Sam and the Falafel of Santa Cruz team!

Friendly shop... food was awesome.. I felt like a treasure in an ocean... it's halal, when I asked them there is no certificate the lady was kind enough to bring the big box of carton which had HALAL stamp on it.

Sam and crew are so pleasant and while up delicious and fresh gyros and falafel! If you get a chance to chat with Sam while you're there, go for it. He's so friendly and has great stories and a huge personality.

Love this casual falafel place! We stopped by for a late lunch and glad it was open. We got the veggie combo plate and chose falafel, tabbouleh, dolma, and sauteed veggies. The falafel is BOMB! We have a favorite place in South Bay and this is equally tops my favorite in Nor Cal. The color inside isn't as bright green as other places but the flavor is more focused on the beans/peas! We also got the chicken shawarma and it was good but I really like the falafel. Bring cash because it's cash only.

Fresh and Hearty Sautéed Veggie Plate- Lots to choose from on the Mediterranean Menu of Classics and Combos to mix and match sides and dishes. Fresh and Homemade tasting The assorted veggies were sautéed nicely and served over rice. The dish had hummus or baba ghanoush choice for side. I chose hummus and it was delicious. Also a nice side salad with zesty vinaigrette. Check out the photos. Nice size for lunch. Also had a Tropical Yerba Mate 🧉 This is a gr8 location to pull up for a healthy meal. On Mission Street easy corner spot to get to. Plenty of parking on the side street
