Kareem’s Falafel

A FALAFEL LEGEND!! Kareem's Restaurant has been serving the greatest falafel for over two decades. They were one of the first to serve Orange County's Middle Eastern community. Kareem's Falafel is Non-GMO, 100% Vegan & Gluten Free! They have one the best falafels I have ever had! You can grab a bag of their frozen falafels at the restaurant or at certain grocery stores. The outdoor seating area has a charming garden. So,it’s the perfect spot for a relaxing meal!! The Iced Arabic Coffee has cinnamon and cardamom in it. Love it!! The food is authentic, fresh and vibrant! The Hummus Steak Nuts is my new favorite way to have hummus; with pan-seared almonds and steak!! The texture along with the creamy hummus makes this a winner!! The Combo Grill comes with Steak, Kufta and Chicken, which is a great way to try all three. Shareable for 2 people. The rice is really flavorful!! It’s my new favorite restaurant in Anaheim! A true HIDDEN GEM!

I really enjoyed the outdoor seating area. It was charming. The little garden was peaceful and I got to see some birds hanging about in the tree. I really enjoyed the environment and the ambient music. When the food came out, the colors on our plate looked so vibrant it was a nice aesthetic! Earlier I had called ahead to see if they had a waiting list for dinner but it wasn’t needed. Friday night and it wasn’t crowded at 6pm but by 7pm there was a line. I liked that it was a fast and convenient. We had plans after dinner so didn’t want to get stuck on a waiting list. I ordered the chicken wrap. The taste of the chicken pairs well with the pickles! I felt like too much salad sauce was added though I would have preferred less dripping from the wrap, it also added to the sour taste. Overall all a good eat though!

The food was delicious& authentic & fresh, we ordered the kofta, the beef, baba ganouge , falafel, labane & tabouli (GF) everything was Excellent. There's something that meets everyone's craving.

Been here a few times. Food taste is amazing. Garlic sauce is the best. Love love love!!

Absolutely worth the drive to taste what, hands down, are the best falafel I have ever had. Crunchy, light and loads of flavor. The Combo Grill plate is enough for two people or a great lunch and then your dinner too! Tender, flavorful chicken, steak and kufta. I paired mine with babaganoush and tabouli. Absolute perfection. My husband paired his with spicy hummus and tabouli. The Iced green tea with mint and lemon was perfect.
