Really yummy! Survived my train ride. The service was ok, ambiance empty. Really yummy!!!! Would recommend

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!

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!

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.

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.

Nancy C.

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)

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!

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!

Ive only ordered through grubhub, so I cant really comment in the ambience or service. What I can say is YUM! Im familiar with the Natomas location, so I was happy to see Davis getting their own store. My go to order is the combo half gyro half chicken. Every single time the food from here is delicious and fresh and very filling. Do yourself a favor and try this spot out! read more

Still love this place - however, there's recently been some new employees and the food is pretty inconsistent now. I believe it was the owner and their family who were there primarily until recently. Ive been here many times. Today I ordered a Greek salad with chicken and asked for some falafel as well. I was charged 6.99 for the salad, and rung up twice for adding chicken and one was noted to add falafel; $4.99 x2 ($17 total). My coworker got a rice bowl and added falafel as well and was charged $2.99 for the falafel. We each ended up getting two pieces so I was charged extra. Not sure why. This time the chicken in my salad was EXTREMELY saucy which is not normal. It was much spicier than normal, which is fine because tend I order it extra spicy but this is the first time it's been wet with sauce. I'll still be back because it's one of my fav places to grab a bite to eat while at work but I'll be selective on what days depending on who is working. I would like to add that I did say something while I was being rung up, I asked about the falafel and was told the extra chicken charge was for that. I didn't feel like pushing back because I didn't want to be rude, but maybe a little more hands on training is needed for the new employees read more

I didn't know The Halal Guys were closed. So I went here instead. I've been to some of their other locations, like Granite Bay. But I never been here, this is my first time. The gyro is aromatic. It's well seasoned. The spices in there are fragrant. My favorite rice is basmati. The veggies cut through the richness. I always ask for the extra tangy tahini white sauce. I don't eat hummus when it's pre-made, those are full of soybean oil. I like my hummus to have nothing but chickpeas, olive oil, garlic, and lemon juice in it. The pita bread is perfect for mopping up all that hummus. read more

Counter service, weak air conditioning. The cashier seemed inexperienced, but the lead was just behind him and able to answer questions about the menu. The gyro wrap was delicious, although there was no slow roast hunk of gyro meat as one might expect. Veggies were abundant but basic. I saw lightly colored lettuce and tomatoes, and detected maybe a smattering of other flavors. The sauce was good, but looser than I expected from other gyro places--and no yogurt tang. Probably six tables, and plenty of take when we were there. Due to the heat inside, we sat outside on this summer evening. The cook and lead was so kind and warm that I did enjoy our visit. Prices were extremely reasonable, with many options at budget prices. read more

Hawaiian BBQ Station Teriyaki Tofu plate with 1/2 white and brown rice. Super happy the mac salad is also vegetarian. The teriyaki can be a bit heavy handed so if you don't like a lot of sauce, ask for it SOS (sauce on the side). The tofu were small cubes with a lot of texture to the outside. All of the items were very nicely prepared. Haven't had mac salad in so long because most include crab. Thanks for keeping it veggie. The tofu was placed on a bed of cabbage so feel good about eating your veggies. The other side of Latitude is buffet style for $17.99. Pretty good deal, but not many vegetarian selections on the most recent menu. I would definitely come back.

Shah's Halal Food - University Mall

As a former UC Davis student and current Davis resident, it's crazy to see how far Shaws has come!…read moreI remember when Shaws and star Ginger were the only food trucks on campus and it was such a great meal at a good deal. Now they have their own storefront with a ton more options to customize your meal, and more options and things to order overall. The storefront is not huge, but I don't think it needs to be. It's clean and pretty well organized. The service is also fine. I ordered a combo rice bowl and was glad to be able to add extra toppings like tomatoes in the such. Now, the one thing that they don't do like the old truck used to do is load up with sauce. 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.

Friendly spot with good prices. Had the Gyro -- I'm big on flavor and it didn't quite land for me,…read morethough I generally avoid fast food so take that into account. The fries, on the other hand, were genuinely great. Parking lot is undersized for the number of businesses in the mall -- plan to arrive early or come by bike.

Not your super traditional Hawaiian poke but definitely combines familiar flavors but also includes some Asian fusion. The bowls are massive. The wife and I split one and is plenty of food for two. We picked a poke bowl with two flavors and choose a "loaded option". The "loaded options" are preset toppings at a fixed price. We choose the tropical style, which includes: seaweed salad, cucumbers, surimi crab (imitation), wonton chips, avocado, masago, furikake, spicy mayo, and eel sauce. The two poke flavors we choose was the spicy salmon (spicy mayo) and furikake bomb ahi (think sesame oil ish based). Overall great food. Staff is friendly and helpful. It comes out fast. Interior is very modest and is a pick up and quick eat spot. Exactly what you come here for. They also have other things on the menu like musubis, sashimi's, fried dishes, to try. If we're ever back in the area we'll make sure to stop by.

Honey D Cafe

So many tea joints in this town, I didn't give this place a second look. It's been here for 7ish…read moresome odd years and never even considered that it served more than just bubble teas. Place is adorned with symbols, cartoons and slightly odd translations, many of them repeats but amusing to read while dining. We got a couple dumpling dishes and sat down. Service is odd but it works. There are touchscreens and there's also a regular cashier. "eat with love, happy wife happy life" Hope that doesn't offend you. Probably something lost in translation so relax with the sensitivity. Ambiance vibes were minimal because I think it's summer break. If it got much busier (which I'm fairly certain it will) there would be less space to move around, obviously, but I think folks would still pile in. Dumplings were tasty and one came with a dipping sauce. They appeared to have the array of umami sauces (salty-soy, sweet-chili, spicy-cock, bitter-vinegar) along with a shaker of paprika? Don't cry about the dishware. Paper bowls for everyone! I'm sure they had forks somewhere but we never saw them. "Tea won't be drunk, but the person will" HUH? Never tried those "Freshly Made Egg Waffle" things so figured, why not. Got some chocolate guys that look like oversized bubble wrap. Thought it'd be better. Thought maybe there'd be something INSIDE the bubble. Nope. Was just kinda meh. "Sorry we won't able to have discount, but you might able to get the whole store if you hit on the boss" gives off harassment vibes. Hopefully it's just lost in translation. Odd advice kept me reading for the final Yelp-ish words of wisdom: "One meal means eat for the whole day without stopping." But take pictures and write about it.

We usually ask to skip the spam, but everything else in the soup, at least one person in it family will eat. Quail egg, fried tofu, chicken thigh, green leeks, peanuts, sliced beef, thin tofu sheets (and I'm probably missing a few ingredients!) 2. Chicken Cutlet with meat sauce over rice: if we are getting at least two items, this is for sure one of them. Excellent flavor on the peppery batter on the juicy chicken and the meat sauce and pickled veggies are an excellent combination. 3. Zha Jiang Mien: First time trying it. Two of us liked it. May get, again, next time. We usually prefer the blacker Korean style sauce, but this was pretty good, too. 4. Beef roll: think thinly sliced beef with fresh veggies rolled up in an onion pancake. Everyone in the family likes this dish, but we don't always get it (us wanting to try new things). Sad to see you guys leave your Sacramento... come back, PLEASE!

I always go for the butter chicken, medium spicy, and it is so good. The flavor is rich, perfectly spiced, and just hits every time. I also get their garlic naan, which pairs perfectly with the sauce. I usually end up spending around 24 dollars when I add extra rice and garlic naan to the butter chicken, but honestly, it is so worth it. The portions are really generous. It is easily the size of two meals in one, so you can definitely save some for the next day. I have not tried any other Indian food spots in Davis, and to be honest, I do not really feel the need to because this place is just that good. Whether I get it to go or sit down with friends and family, the experience is always great. They are very quick with their service, and even when I order ahead, the food is still hot and ready to go when I pick it up. Overall, this is a spot I will keep going back to.

Quick service, you order at the counter and they bring out your food to the table in minutes. There are bright red chairs with metal tables so very casual vibe. The person taking our order wasnt exactly the friendliest which was a bummer. We both got the Pho Hanoi (#14, comes with wok fried ribeye and garlic) with the fresh noodles upgrade which was a $1.50 surcharge but so worth it. Came out to about $44 total. The broth was good, didnt taste diluted, and different than the pork broths I've been used to from other pho restaurants. The meat was fully cooked, flavorful, and both of ours had a decent amount of meat. The fresh noodles were great and light, it didnt feel like I was forcing myself to eat noodles I didnt like. Standard garnishes (jalapeños, limes, sprouts) though they start you off with a small amount of make sure to ask for more if you run low. They also have pickled white onions as a garnish!!!! SO GOOD!! As you can see from the pic, I finished mine which is rare for me. I usually leave a lot of broth or a lot of noodles left over, not this time! Note, this place only serves pho as entrees so plan accordingly if anyone in your group is expecting banh mis or doesn't want something hot, soupy, and delicious. Their phos are beef broth based. I've been to a few pho joints in the Davis/Sacramento area and I would easily put this is in my top 3.

Love the noodles and the broth. Currently my favorite pho place in town,…read more I really enjoy the pho with the wok stir fried steak. The extra spicy and flavor is *chefs kiss*. I also enjoy their flank and brisket pho, but I do find that the flank and connective tissue could be undercooked sometimes, and chewy. The beef ribs are also a bit chewy each time I have been there. I still order the flank because it still one of my preferred cuts of meat in pho. Service is courteous and very straight forward. Order your food then take a seat. Staff are easy to get attention from, and they do roam around to ask if you need anything. Is usually ask for extra pickled (lightly) onions. It's nice that they I've got self serve hot tea and cold tea in addition to ice water. The restaurant is neat and taken care of. I've never had issues with tables being sticky like some other pho restaurants.
