    @ashleyyyvonne & @foodbyashley on IG | Chicken bowl
    Ashley J.

    Falafel Corner is an affordable favorite in Davis! I recently ordered their chicken bowl which came with rice and white sauce. The chicken was perfectly seasoned. Everything had a great flavor and it was a pretty filling serving. The best part? It only cost $6.99. Falafel Corner is one of my go-tos for halal bowls/platters now that Halal Guys is no longer in Davis!

    Stopped by on a quiet weekend morning after learning they recently opened in Davis. We ordered their falafel wrap and platter. Everything was delicious! Portions were generous and plating was beautiful! The staff were very friendly and attentive. Would recommend this spot!

    Falafel platter
    Jacquelin S.

    We each ordered platters and the food was beautifully presented. It was a feast for the eyes and there was enough food to bring home half for the next day. However, we were a bit disappointed that the food was so bland. The falafels were nice and crispy but everything on the plate could have used some more spice. The hummus was very thin and runny and had no flavor. The pita was nice and soft. There are a few tables inside the restaurant and two tables for two outside on the sidewalk. We had been to the Natomas location a few years back when they first opened and we were blown away by the flavors. We were disappointed in our meal at the Davis location.

    Run, don't walk, to go try Falafel corner. The shop seems unassuming from the outside, a bit hidden between the surrounding businesses, but this new restaurant is an absolute gem among dining experiences in Davis. We were greeted warmly, and the man at the counter immediately started in friendly conversation with us, answering any questions about the menu, and giving us some background on the companies origins in Sacramento. He told us that their other location had gained a reputation for how good their falafel was, and he was not lying. The falafel wrap I ordered was genuinely one if the best I've ever had - the falafel was freshly made, warm, flavorful, full of sauces (tzatziki, hummus, and tahini) that I very genuinely was ready to lick off the paper. The pita was also warm and soft, and the entire wrap came together so nicely, if a bit messily, for a filling, tasty, might-need-a-fork kind of meal. My partner ordered the chicken platter and was similarly very impressed by how soft the pita was, and yummy the sauces were. He specifically complimented the spices and seasoning on the chicken, saying it made him want to find the recipe. Falafel corner has hands down become my number one spot for Mediterranean Food in Davis within one visit, which is not a common experience for me, but I am so glad we decided to try their food. I honestly think you would be doing yourself a disservice to pass on Falafel Corner, and you won't regret stopping in to try their menu out.

    Generous portions at this quick service location. The staff were helpful and I was pleasantly surprised by the presentation of the meal. The dining area is very small, so I'd probably get takeout next time. I would also order a platter to share because these are huge!

    Classic cheeseburger

    Summary: Falafel Corner is an excellent addition to Davis' food scene. The food here is fresh, no gimmicks, and delicious. Surprisingly, one of the best burger spots in town, and the falafel is crispy, fresh, and is not going to leave you feeling too heavy. Taste/Flavor: I've tried the Badmash Burger, Cheese Burger, Chicken Sandwich, and Falafel Platter. The burgers have a wonderful classic taste to them. Raw white onion, lettuce, tomato, well cooked patty, and cheese. What you would imagine from a diner in a classic movie and tasting great. The food always comes out hot and fresh and you can see the cooks making it. The Chicken Sandwich has crispy pieces of chicken and the same additions as their burgers. I was really surprised at how great their burgers were and they don't leave you feeling too oily and heavy. The Falafel Platter was also really great. It came with a large fresh piece of pita bread, salad, hummus, and a generous portion of falafel. The falafel was really great because the contrast of crispy fried texture on the outside and really fluffy and light interior. Value: Great value for money. This place can be enjoyed by students and non-students alike. Two entrees and a side added up to be about $30.00 with tax and tip included (about $10.00 per standard burger). Seating: There are two tables for 4/5 and two tables for 2-3 inside. Outside has 2 tables that can seat 4/5. Atmosphere: the owners and employees are extremely warm and welcoming. They accommodate customizations to dishes as well. You'll instantly feel welcome when you arrive. Conclusion: If you like burgers, falafel, or gyros you owe it to yourself to at least try out Falafel Corner. I've left satisfied both times I've come here.

    Dry fries. Wouldn't order again...Maybe I'd try the curly fries next time.
    Faheemah M.

    FOOD: Falafel wasn't dry and had a decent flavor. The wrap was large enough to share if the two aren't super hungry. Fries were overcooked, dry shoestring fries. They reminded me of those potato sticks in a can that are sometimes added to sandwiches (if you're old enough, you likely know what I'm talking about...I haven't seen this in a while). SERVICE: The cashier was kind, helpful, and patient (I was a little indecisive as this was my first visit). AMBIENCE: It's a small spot with a few seats inside and a few outside. More like a quick takeout spot vs. a sit down restaurant.

    Badmash Burger
    Thuy Anh T.

    I was in Davis for the first time in a while since I graduated from UCD and decided to try Falafel Corner. It was amazing!!! I'm sad that there are currently no locations in the Bay Area! I will definitely come back the next time I visit Davis. We got the falafel platter and the badmash burger. BEST falafel I've ever had-- crispy on the outside and soft on the inside without being mushy or too oily. The badmash burger was one of the best burgers I've had as well. It was perfectly cooked and juicy, and the fried egg and bacon complemented the burger nicely. I loved the addition of thousand island and spicy sauce. The food here is amazing value! The falafel platter and burger were about $13 each and my boyfriend and I were really full and satisfied. It was an amazing meal for 2 for $30. They have many options for different preferences, and the falafel is delicious and a great vegetarian option. It's a very casual and small space with a few tables inside. The service was super friendly. They welcomed us in, asked us how the food was, and thanked us when we left. You order and pick up food at the counter. Water and utensils are self-serve. Overall a 10/10 meal and worth walking a long distance in the rain!! I'm excited to come back to try their other items.

    Great for a quick lunch stop. The guy taking my order was really friendly. The cheeseburger and curly fries are standard. It's nice to have another place in town that sells burgers. (4/5) The gyro platter was beautifully served and a generous serving size. The gyro itself had great spice and flavor. The pita bread was served warm but a little rubbery. (3/5)

    Gyros Platter
    Dee W.

    My husband and I frequent Falafel Corner in Sacramento so we were pleasantly surprised to see a location pop up in Davis! My go order is the gyro platter, they give such a generous amount of food, if you get the flatter you'll most likely need to get a too go box. The gyro was tender and each item of the platter complimented each other well. The restaurant is small but very clean so if you have a big group you might want to take your order to go. Staff is really very attentive, friendly and helpful! I'll definitely be back soon!

    Chicken Platter
    Aisha P.

    So so yummy! I had high expectations coming to this spot because I have a few Falafel Corners in my area back in the bay. I was so excited to see that they opened a spot up in Davis, especially given the lack of halal spots in the area. I ordered the chicken platter (~$15) and I was so pleasantly surprised with the quality and taste. The plate was set up beautifully, despite being to-go, and it tasted just as good as it looked. The chicken was coated with spices and was super tender and juicy. The sauce was refreshing and balanced the spices perfectly. Rice was cooked nicely and the salad was just what was needed. The only complaint I have is about the hummus; it was lacking flavor and honestly didn't taste like anything. That could just be a personal preference, so it didn't bring my rating down. Overall, the service was great, food was delicious and I can't wait to come back!

    Custom 2 orders of chicken and side of hummus for my keto preference.

    They let me buy 2 orders of chicken with some hummus, which is great! Very keto friendly.

They have menus easily accessible right outside for you to look through. They have tons of choices, I just got the classic cheeseburger with pepper jack. He had the avocado burger. We ordered medium well since we don't like the pink in it when it comes to burgers anyway. The service was good and friendly. The prices were pretty normal. I like that you get a choice between french fries or salad. Of course we both chose french fries though lol. Each table already has ketchup, salt, and pepper. I like that there was just water that you can refill up yourself so you didn't have to be left waiting and can drink as much water as you want. They had a good selection of beers and it was a nice casual atmosphere. Wasn't too crowded, but I'm sure that might be because I went during a weekday afternoon. It was hot, but they had sprayers and fans going, which is nice. And although wasn't complete full sit down service, the workers still checked on us which I felt that means that they genuinely care about their customers. Now, the food! The burger was cooked perfectly with the right amount of char on the outside and still moist and juicy on the inside. The pepper jack cheese was melted, and the burger was seasoned well. All the vegetables were fresh, crispy clean lettuce. I felt like the pickle they either made it themselves or they get it from somebody handmade. And the buns also tasted homemade. We were both impressed with our burgers, however, the avocado burger, which he got had a lot of mayonnaise on it. So just a heads up they do put pretty much all the condiments on the burger so just make sure to specify what you want or don't want condiment wise when ordering. As far as parking, it's downtown so it's a lot easier to walk or bike to this location. However, there is some parking around the block and by the park - you just need to be aware of signs. I really feel like this place can host multiple different kinds of going out. We went out for a casual afternoon date, but of course there's families there, friends getting together, small groups of two or maybe even just one person and of course, larger groups were there too. I can see it being a kind of a cool date spot for more casual kind of date and of course I can see this being used as like family gatherings so I like that it's very versatile .

The old truck used to drown your bowl in sauce whereas now they're a little more conservative, but I imagine you could ask for more if you wanted more. The bowl itself tasted good. It's not going to be the best Halal food that you'll get in Davis or anywhere else in the world, but it tasted nostalgic, and I really enjoyed the whole thing. My husband who is currently on campus more than I am noted that the storefront gives you more food than the food truck at the silo. He also said that the food tasted better here.
