    Combo Platter salad
    Nuran S.

    Habibi this place is halal! I've been to falafel flare a few times now and they are always consistent! I really like the combo plate here. It's really good, flavorful, fresh and filling. The Greek salad is really yummy and fresh too! The staff always has my food ready quickly as they are very efficient. The interior is spacious and clean so I always sit down and enjoy my meal. If you check in through Yelp, they give you a free baklava dessert, a sweet little treat!! Overall, I've always had a great experience here and will be back.

    Falafel wrap (with everything) and gyro wrap (with everything) -- just perfect
    Khim Y.

    Absolutely delicious. Everything tastes fresh, obviously created by someone who knows their food! Every bite is a treat. Every single condiment--may it be pickle or garlic sauce or tahini sauce--perfectly matches the protein it's complementing. I know that we'll be coming back. Parking is hard though.

    We ordered two chicken wraps, an order of fries, and a medium pepperoni pizza. The place is super welcoming, clean, and really cute inside. It was my first time, and I was pleasantly surprised by how much space they have, plus a TV if you want to hang out. The staff was awesome, friendly and attentive. The cashier was even serving tables and still did a great job. Now for the food: the chicken wrap is so good honestly one of the best I've had. Fries were solid, nothing fancy but tasty. The pizza toppings were good and great sauce, but the crust was a little cardboardish. Luckily, that one was for the kids, and they didn't mind. Overall, it's a great spot for a quick bite that won't break the bank, with food that hits the spot and service that makes you want to come back.

    I've been looking for a falafel place that does the crunchy exterior/moist interior contrast well and until now hadn't found one. Either the falafel will be dry throughout, or it's not dry but the outer shell isn't that crunchy. My search has ended at Falafel Flare. Best falafel I've had in the East Bay! Very crunchy exterior contrasted with a moist pillowy interior, perfectly seasoned, not oily or salty. A side of falafel is currently $5.99 and it comes with five pieces. I also really liked their fries but I think those who prefer saltier fries may find these a bit bland. For me they were fried perfectly and came piping hot. I sometimes feel sick to my stomach after eating deep fried foods, but did not experience that here. Very spacious interior, lots of tables, outdoor seating. Courteous customer service. Love that it's right by the library so you can reward yourself after a study session.

    This is a nice large halal restaurant with some really great food. The decor is basic and simple, and they have a few TV's up to keep you occupied, but they don't really show anything current. I assume they don't have cable or a satellite because they typically just play old YouTube videos. The service is relatively quick. Kababs can take a little bit of time. Pricing is so-so. It's always going to be a little higher at a halal restaurant because their meat costs tend to be higher. The flavors are there! Good spices on the kababs, the hummus was not overly spiced, and a nice light vinaigrette on the salad. The only thing I hate is that they give you plasticware. That part is such a turn off! If you order the wrap, burger, or pizza, obviously, you don't have to worry about it, but when you order a plate, you want to be able to utilize substantial silverware! They also don't offer complimentary water! These are downfalls considering how much you're paying for the food! The food itself is solid! Order to go so you can use actual spoons, forks, and knives at home! My rating would of been higher if it wasn't for these two things. Kind of a big deal to me!

    Gyro salad
    Billy L.

    Falafel Flare was really good. I ordered the gyro salad and honestly, it might be the best one I've had. The gyro meat had that perfect slightly crispy edge I love, and everything tasted super fresh. The portions were solid, prices were fair, and they've got their own parking lot which made things easy. I ordered in person and my food was ready in like five minutes. The staff was friendly too. I'll definitely be back.

    Chicken Kebab, Falafel Platter
    David K.

    3.5 stars Falafel Flare is attached to the Middle Eastern Rummi Mart and offers a menu of kebabs, wraps, falafel, and a few fusion items like burgers and pizza. Given the name of the restaurant, my pick was the Falafel Platter, which came with five dry, crunchy falafel balls along with hummus, pita bread, and a simple salad of lettuce, cucumbers, and tomatoes, served with a variety of colorful sauces including Italian salad dressing, spicy red chili sauce, tzatziki, pickle relish. and aioli. I also tried the Chicken Kabab, which had a bright red color from the spice mixture but was incredibly dry and overcooked. Overall, this was a decent enough place to stop for a casual meal in a clean setting, but the food wasn't the best I've had.

    Chicken shawarma wrap
    Ashish K.

    I got a take out from this place and it was pretty good. Not your traditional shawarma wrap. This one is dipped in their sauce which is not spicy as it looks but adds ton of flavor. It's was $14 and fills you up, they don't skimp on the chicken. I would go back and try the chicken kebab platter. The person there said it takes time to cook (20mins) and I was rushing.

    Got delivery so can't speak to the direct service or ambiance of the place. The food arrived earlier than expected and was flavourful. The wraps are sold separate from the sides and all items can be pretty pricey when ordering online. Might be better to order from the restaurant directly.

    Chicken plate 4/5 - this wasn't my favorite.. chicken was pretty dry and I had to dunk it in hummus and the sauce to make it better. Portion size was good tho and I left very full. The salad was a nice side but I wish they had tabouleh Came on a Saturday afternoon and they weren't too busy. Food took a while to come out tho. Parked in the structure for free right across the street which was super convenient.

    Gyro Wrap
    Molly L.

    We came here on a weekday and although we were the only customers there when we got there, the place got pretty full throughout the noon hour. My partner ordered the gyro wrap and the baklava and I ordered the falafel burger with fries. We liked everything we ordered except maybe the baklava, which was not as crispy and fresh as it could have been. But the veggie burger patty is pretty much a falafel patty that has a lot of flavor although admittedly a little bit salty. I wish they would have mentioned the jalapeños in the burger, which I found to be a bit much. The fries were fresh and made to order. My partner said that his gyro was very fresh -- the meat had a lot of flavor while the pita was fluffy. It's clear they put a lot of care into their food. A plus is that they have a dedicated parking lot close to a bakery and small grocery store. We would definitely return.

    Chicken wrap, they do not skimp on the meat.
    Aerris M.

    Can't go wrong with their chicken salad, chicken wrap, or falafels. The service is fast and friendly! I've been going here for about two years now since working in the area, the taste of the food has only improved and is proven by how many more patrons go there to eat.
