Excellent the best burger Very clean hygienic Resturant…read more Masood the owner takes a great pride off his restaurant and a great personality I would recommend Falafel Flare to everyone.

Cool spacious and airy space with solid Middle East eats. I've driven past many times but finally…read morejust checked them out recently. Crazy ambitious menu with pizza, burgers, wings, kabobs, wraps and many Mid East favs like falafels, dolmas, gyro and babaghanoush. I only tried a couple of items, so I do need to try a few more things eventually. Order at the counter and food will get brought out. Seems like a place popular for take-out/deliveries. On a casual lunch I was impressed by the diversity in the place, as it is downtown Hayward. Young, old and cultural garb from several cultures spotted. Service at the register was friendly, dude gave off ownership vibes. Falafel Wrap ($11/4*) Very fresh and satsifying wrap. Big, soft and puffy pita bread is filled to the brim with fresh salad-like veggies. Chopped lettuce, tomato, onions and a couple of pickled items. Stuffed also with a decent amount of fat disk of falafel and a good dousing of tahini sauce. I loved the bites for the most part as I was full without feeling weighed down for the lunch hours. The falafels had good flavor but just didn't seem as crisp as I usually prefer, didn't seem fresh out of the fryer, which the places that are known for this definitely do. I especially liked the bites more when a pickled veggie entered the bite, so I should have ordered extra...next time. Beef Kabobs ($25/4*) Got this for take-out and it was still good hours later after a reheat. Beef is in small cubes and cooked pretty well done. A bit dry but at least it was flavorful. Definitely taste more Afghan in spicing/marinade, pretty bold with lots of garlic and herbs. De Afghanan out here in the east bay is the gold standard for these types of kabobs and those are cut into bigger chunks and are juicier by a lot. Kabob plates comes with a good amount of seasoned basmati rice, a pita bread, a small green salad and a small scoop of hummus. Even tho $25 seems a bit pricey, there is enough food to justify the price. I was able to make 1.5 meals out of it with a good dinner and a small work lunch. I actually want to try a pizza here and definitely a lamb kabob. I hang out in this downtown area often, so great having another casual option in my back pocket. Yeah Buddy!!

We had borani kaddu - butternut squash with yogurt and garlic sauce. This was a good alternative to the common borani banjan. the texture was perfect, not overly cooked, went well with the warm bread. perfect for vegetarians. Our vegetarian companion had borani banjan - smoked, grilled eggplants in the tomato yogurt sauce similar to the appetizer we had. But served with rice and salad and green chick pea side provided enough serving. it was delicious - they have an option to make it vegan as well. Now quabili palaw was the star! massive size of lamb shank, well seasoned, well cooked, perfectly seasoned. The rice was fantastic with enough sweet carrots and raisins. Will be back just for this! Shami kabob came with two kababs (picture only one as our little one already sneaked one!). Kababs were juicy, perfectly spiced, with enough rice and salad. Between quabili palaw and shami kabob was enough for two adults and hungry child... Khoshmazeh!

There were mini samosas, spring rolls, momos, chow mein, fried rice, white basmati rice, dal tadka, rajma, butter chicken, goat curry, BBQ chicken, chili chicken, and a couple other items. Very friendly service. They have an outdoor patio with 6 or 7 tables. It was a cozy place to grab a meal.

All that changed with the pandemic. Quite a few Indian restaurants have tried to bring back the buffets but for a good one you still need to travel to the south bay. So it was a surprise to find out about this place serving a daily lunch and a weekend dinner buffet! I called ahead to get an idea of what they serve and it seemed like a good deal for $20 a person. I also liked that they had equal vegetarian and non vegetarian items so husband who is currently not eating meat could have some options. The buffet itself is small but there are enough and more options for any kind of craving. Two vegetarian appetizers. A lentil (dal), and a legume potato dish. A goat curry, a chicken curry and tandoori chicken . Indo Chinese offerings of vegetarian fried rice and noodles and one paneer and one chicken entree. White rice in addition to the fried rice, and naan brought to the table. Two desserts, chai for post dinner. And the piece de resistance- the momos !! Both in veg and chicken. Service was quick and friendly and all the dishes in the buffet tasted fresh because they made them in small batches as needed. The place itself is no frills and simple but seating is plenty. I don't know if we will ever go back to pre pandemic buffet levels, but for now we have this decent Indian buffet right here in Hayward.

Stopped by here after going to Hobby Lobby. We ordered the…read moregarlic lemon pepper wings and dumpling soup. So good! The wings were PERFECTLY battered and so crispy. It was fresh out of the fryer, hot (temperature wise ) super meaty and flavorful. I thought "garlic" meant garlic powder, but this was loaded with tons of actual garlic (like you would get on garlic fries). I actually put the batter crumbs and garlic into my soup. The soup came with 5 dumplings for $7.99! There is no where in the Bay Area you can get soup for that price anymore. It was delicious. Seaweed based with green onion. I wish to know the secret recipe for this Asian soup. I just had the rest for leftovers today. :P Will definite come back again when I am at the mall. Service was excellent.

UNDERNEATH THE SAUCE…read more Rarely do I shop at Southland Mall however I was there two Wednesdays ago when I shopped at Champs Sports and Foot Locker. After shopping, for lunch I decided to eat at Adrienne's Wild Wings. I'm a sucker for wings, but I've never been to Adrienne's Wild Wings before. I asked the cashier what sauce she would recommend. She stated one of the sauces she liked was honey garlic. I ordered 10-piece combo that included ten wings, side order, and dessert. For the side order I choose tater tats while for the dessert I selected cheesecake. The 10-piece combo comes with two sauces. I choose honey butter, which is the dry rub, and honey garlic. I believe sauces should be used for flavoring not hiding. What do I mean by that? I've noticed sometimes sauces mask how dry the meat is. I decided to taste the honey butter first to see how moist the meat is inside. After taking a bite two things came to mind. First I couldn't taste the honey butter. Second the meat was moist. I tried the honey garlic. The cashier said the honey garlic was spicy. However I felt the honey garlic was spicy at all. Yet the honey garlic sauce was very flavorful. What did I like more the honey butter or honey garlic? I say this was toss up as I can taste more of the meat from the honey butter, yet I can enjoy the sauce of the honey garlic. The tater tots were disappointing as they were bland. The cheesecake was light. I don't shop at Southland Mall often. If I go back Southland Mall and become hungry for lunch I can see myself going back to Adrienne's Wild Wings.
