Delicious hot and fresh food, cold items are always fresh and crisp. Delicious house made lemonades, very friendly service!

yelpers... you LIED to me! :( this is an establishment i will never visit again. i know the vegan options in OC are scarce... specifically anything with flavor. i was excited to try mushroom shawarma and have some falafels for lunch. upon arrival, parking was easy since there was almost no one in the lot. i walked in and the only person working behind the counter greeted me stressed with the task of cooking falafel. the menu was confusing, mainly due to the fact that a lot of options were missing in person. i wanted to try 3 different types of hummus since that was an option. the employee either did not understand english or chose to misunderstand what was said. she repeated the options i chose then proceeded to pick the hummus she wanted on my plate, i guess? it was so awkward dining in. there was silence and the one employee working on takeout orders as they came inside to pick it up. i felt so uncomfortable eating in. the falafels were crumbly, dry, and stale. the mushroom shawarma just tasted like oil. the hummus sucked. i also had a baklava and it was missing salt, rose water.... just any kind of flavor !!! overall, i was so disappointed with this flavorless meal. it was a waste of my time and a TOTAL WASTE OF MONEY. it is so overpriced and mediocre! i spent over $30 for a plate of sad mushrooms and falafels. i would not recommend. not worth trying. vegans avoid!!! i will forever go to kareem's falafel over hummus way any day. read more

Hummus Way - Mushroom Shawarma Falafel Pistachio Baklava - Mediterranean Near Me - Orange, California

Hummus Way reminds me a lot of Cava because you can build your own bowls and wraps. I'd say that Hummus Way tastes fresher and healthier to me whereas the flavors at Cava are better. We ended up ordering a bowl and a garlic jalapeño wrap and enjoyed both. I love how you can customize the bowls and wraps and all the different toppings and sauces that are available. The flavors were really good and the portions themselves are generous which I appreciated. The food tasted really fresh and I feel like overall, the food here is a solid option if you're looking for a healthy meal. I'd say that the prices are fair given the quality and quantity of the food. There was one employee working here when I went and she was super sweet and friendly! Because it looked like she was the only one working there though, service was pretty slow because she had to be in the kitchen, make the food, and ring people up at the register. We got there less than 5 minutes after they opened on a Sunday and there was already a decent sized line of people waiting to order. The store itself is clean and has a few seats if you would like to dine in. It's located in a small plaza that had a decent amount of parking spots. read more

If you haven't been here before, you're missing out! I've never had a better meal in my life. The tri-tip was tender and the chicken was perfectly seasoned. The crispy chickpeas were to die for, plus the variety of hummus and sauces was spectacular! The eggplant hummus was my favorite. Sameer is truly the sweetest man in the world. He's the main reason why my experience was so fantastic. He was beyond attentive, patient, and friendly. It's rare to see people with such an eagerness to help nowadays! Please go support this small business. You won't regret it! read more

Hummus Way - Mediterranean Near Me - Orange, California

Their food is SO good! I always get the turmeric chicken as the protein, harissa hummus, zesty feta and tzatziki plus whatever toppings I'm feeling. I think the portion is very generous. I'm usually able to split it into two meals (if I can help myself). I've been to other places that have a similar setup, like cava, but nothing is ever as good as Hummus Way. Can't wait until my next visit. read more

Food it's awesomely delicious, the service is as great as the taste and very professional clean and relaxed atmosphere! read more

Hummus Way - Humus vegan bowl - Mediterranean Near Me - Orange, California

Been here about a dozen times. They are consistently delicious every time. The paprika chicken is very good, and my wife likes the pesto chicken. The lemon tumeric chicken is also worth trying. One time I ordered takeout and they gave me the wrong order. I didn't realize till I got home, and it honestly wasn't that big of a deal as their ingredients are so good I didn't mind eating this random order. About 5 minutes into eating I get a call from a number I don't recognize. It was the manager (I'm assuming) calling me to apologize for giving the wrong order. He also told me that he was on the way with my original order! I wasn't expecting this at all, but that level of customer service is honestly unmatched. This happened a bit ago. Honestly I'm writing this up now as I wait for my to go order to be made. Ordering again reminded me of the story and I felt it needed to be shared here. read more

Hummus Way - Mediterranean Near Me - Orange, California

Been here twice. Tried the chicken pesto shawarma first and the beef tri tip second. I have to say their meats are delectable, perfectly flavored and so mouth watering good. You get three hummus dips; you can't go wrong. The salad was the one thing I was wishing had a little dressing, like a lemon oil or something. When you walk it, it smells so yummy, you can't wait to put your meal together. I was greeted by a very friendly man and a nice girl helped me build my meal. It was a great experience overall. read more

Hummus Way - Chicken Shawarma - Mediterranean Near Me - Orange, California

Great food and even better service! I'm usually pretty picky about dry chicken at Mediterranean places, but the Lemon pepper/Turmeric chicken here is amazing. And thank you to manager Carlos for being so friendly and helping me out everytime I come in :) read more

We come here all the time! It's like a middle eastern chipotle- you can make a bowl, wrap or my personal fav - loaded potato wedges. They have a bunch of fun different hummus flavors, and free toppings to add. The tumeric chicken and paprika chicken are my go tos and they're both super good. It's a great healthy food choice and always quick and nice service. Try this place out if you haven't already!! read more

Oh my! Came in for a lunch stop. My trucking route took me to this area. Yelp reviews looked good and so did the photos. It was pretty empty. The owner is super cool! Very friendly and helpful. Takes good care of his guests. I got the "build your own bowl". Toppings of my choice and two types of chicken. The paprika chicken and lemon chicken (I think). Both really good. Their house hummus was bomb! Everything else was fresh and portions are plentiful. I really enjoyed my lunch and if I'm ever in the area, I'll come by to try some other stuff. Customer service is key. Shout out to the owner for the great food and service. Stop by and show some love. See you soon. Keep up the good work. read more

Hummus Way - Build your own bowl. Delicious! - Mediterranean Near Me - Orange, California

I drive past this place every day on my way home from work. I saw when they first opened and have always thought about it but never made the turn in until today. Oh man, such wasted time! It's a very small space but it smelled amazing. The people in line behind me obviously loved it and were great in telling me all about the menu. The two employees behind the counter were also maybe the most polite people I've ever met. I ordered a wedge bowl with falafel; you get 5 pieces. It took 4 minutes for the items to be fried fresh. I added mixed greens and you get three spreads. I chose eggplant hummus, tzatziki and zesty feta. You also get unlimited topping and sauce. Everything looked delicious and fresh. I got cucumbers and quinoa and crumbled feta. The employee made some other recommendations for me too. The fries were dusted with spices and everything was PACKED with flavor. The portion seemed a little small for the price and I think the steam from the heat of my bowl softened my fries and falafel so they weren't as crunchy as I would've liked, but everything still tasted great so I'm not going to hold it against them! Will definitely return because im gonna need to try the mushroom shawarma next. read more

Hummus Way - Wedge bowl with falafel and many free fixings - Mediterranean Near Me - Orange, California

Stopped in randomly on a Sunday on our way back from the beach and everything was very fresh. The wrap was large enough to share and filled with lots of delicious toppings and flavors. There are many options to choose from to create your own bowl, wrap, salad, etc. The grape leaves were also really tasty. The inside is small, with only a few tables. The person making the food seemed bothered, but nonetheless, the food was good. read more

So delicious!! Very friendly service and really colorful, flavorful food. I had a chicken bowl and my husband had a wrap. I loved the option to add multiple sauces and toppings! read more

Sadly, quality was poor. Recipes have potential. We love Mediterranean food, but this was not of the expected quality.

Wanted falafel and chicken, got falafel and chicken and then some! Probably the best $18 bowl you can get. I know that's pricey but you get very fresh food that tastes healthy and filling (honestly a bowl is good enough for two meals). Got the lemon and tumeric chicken will probably try the steak next it looked good. Service was great, both people were very nice and welcoming, nice smiles. Ambiance is chill. Will def be back! read more

Hummus Way - Chicken Shawarma, ZHOUG FALAFEL, BOWL - Mediterranean Near Me - Orange, California

Hummus Way is a small HALAL café that offers bowls, wraps, or pitas. All the food served here is HALAL, and you get to customize each option. I went with a bowl ($13.75) and I had the following options for customization. Choice of: Rice or couscous Spring mix or spinach Spreads (max of 3): Hummus, olive hummus, harissa hummus, tzatziki, feta, eggplant hummus Main (max of 1): Falafels, mushrooms, chicken shawarma, tumeric and lemon chicken, or Moroccan beef (+$2) Toppings: Pickled cucumbers, beets, tabbouleh, red cabbage salad, jalapeno, feta, kalamata olives, sumac onions, tomatoes, cucumbers, crispy onions, crispy garbanzo croutons. Dressing (max of 2) Tahini, Moroccan hot sauce, garlic sauce, cilantro pesto, and lemon & olive oil. For my bowl I went with couscous, spring mix, hummus, harissa hummus, olive hummus, turmeric and lemon chicken, pretty much all the toppings, and garlic sauce. The bowl also includes a freshly made pita bread. First of all, I was impressed with the quality and freshness of each item here. The bowl tasted great. While the hummus was good, all the varieties tasted pretty much the same. I was expecting the harissa one to be a lot more bold and spicy like the one at Cava. Overall the food is very good as is the quantity (forgot to take a picture). However, I do think that the pricing is on the high side compared to other build your bowl places, including HALAL ones. They definitely need to look at lowering the price by $2 to be more competitive. read more

Walked in and was immediately greeted and asked if I had been there before or if I would like the menu explained! She was kind, friendly and helpful! I ordered the falafel wrap and it was delicious!! Definitely a good size portion, I'm far from slim and brought the other half of it home to eat Can't wait to come back and try to the loaded fries!!! Thank you! read more

This tastes as good as it looks! You get to pick your protein, hummus flavors, dressing, toppings everything. You can also pick from the open pita, bowl, wrap and one other version I'm forgetting. The spot is tiny but very clean and good spot for a quick lunch pick up. I will return for sure! read more

Hummus way is extraordinary in every way their food to their service! The best thing to order if you are looking for a little snack, chose the kids meal or small sides. My favorite meat is paprika shawarma and lemon and turmeric pepper chicken. The bowl and loaded fries are excellent with the sauce and the hummus. You need to try this place! is fantastic! read more

Stay away this place will cause you food poisoning. Everything there is not fresh. I had stomach aches for 3 days. The girls working there are very nice though. read more

When I found Hummus Way on Yelp, I knew I had to try this place right away! I'm actually very surprised I haven't found this spot earlier but let's fast forward to 12 hours after I bookmarked this place... We both ordered their create your own bowl with basmati rice. Every single topping they had was so fresh. They all had a perfect balance of flavor and not salty at all either which is great! I highly recommend their hummus, especially their harissa hummus! Tzatziki was the best I've ever tried as well! I had pretty much every topping except for a few and the portions are generous. The portions for the chicken shawarma was very generous as well! I highly recommend their traditional tahini and cilantro pesto sauces! We also had their tumeric & ginger lemonade and their wildberry lemonade. Definitely should try those as well but a bit pricey with the small cup size. This is the best fast Mediterranean food I've ever had so far. Prices are fair, portions are very generous, and the service is excellent! The gentleman that helped us was super friendly and worked somewhat quick. When it got busier, the owner helped the line as well. Kudos to you both. We will definitely be back and I've already recommended this spot to several of my friends already! read more

Hummus Way - Chicken bowl - Mediterranean Near Me - Orange, California

Food was amazing and service was one of the friendliest I've ever experienced. The concept of build-your-own bowl reminded me of Cava, but of course, everything here tasted more flavorful and authentic. Our server really packed on the food and gave generous scoops. He even gave a sampler plate of hummus and spreads because we were indecisive. I haven't had the kalamata olive hummus before, so that was surprisingly tasty. At the end, our server poured extra sauces into little to-go containers for us to try outside of the ones we already picked as well as gave us a side of pita. I really liked that we could do two different types of proteins in the same bowl without any additional charges, and the unlimited toppings really tied everything together. I really recommend adding the chickpea croutons for crunchiness! Overall incredible, would very much recommend if you're craving mediterranean food. I would 100% visit again if I am ever in the area. read more

Hummus Way - Mediterranean Near Me - Orange, California

No no. FAR from as good as some of these other positive reviews say. GUARANTEED not the best Mediterranean style food in the area. I'm actually truly baffled by how many positive reviews there are for how terribly unpleasant, old-tasting, and pre-packaged the food from this place is. Flavors were bland. Just salty and garlicky. No nuance of flavor at all. The pickles taste like store-bought hamburger pickles. Bleck. The falafel was THE WORST I have ever had, and that includes from frozen. So very dry, crumbly, sticky, and grainy. So so bad. The pita also seemed store-bought. It was not fresh at all. It tasted like something you could buy at the grocery store, that just got thrown in the microwave to reheat. It was so tough, gummy, and chewy. Pretty disappointed by this place. I was really looking forward to trying it. The prices seemed reasonable for the amount of food you get, based on the photos I saw here on Yelp. But they really just amped it up on the spinach and the toppings were kind of scant and randomly strewn about. I couldn't even find the two types of hummus that were supposed to be on there. It was just a big mess. As far as service, I ordered ahead and by the time I got there, the man working was surprised to see me and hadn't even noticed that an order had been placed. He had one customer in the store and they were dining alone. I waited 20 minutes in the restaurant for my order to be ready. The ambiance was pretty sad too and has a VERY bad echo. If the person next to your table is talking or orders are being taken at the register, you cannot hear the people at your own table speaking at all. Also, the photos on the menu next to the list of items being sold is inaccurate. One of the reasons I wanted to eat here is because the photos on their website and the menu show pickled turnips and yellow chili peppers. Neither of them are actually available to purchase off of the menu. They also claim to have "mushroom shawarma" on their website, but it was nowhere to be seen on the menu. Last but not least, this food made me sick and I'm still nursing my poor stomach after eating this food. It all tasted like it was at least a day old and now I am paying for it, both with my wallet and my wellness. Please don't eat here. There are many other Mediterranean inspired food places in neighboring parts of Orange County. My favorite that I HIGHLY recommend is called Sababa Falafel. Go there instead! read more

Great fresh food and service large portion very consistent small clean ambience no outside eating food is always ready and there's always baklava and fresh juices and beverages. I come here once a week and it has been very good top quality. read more

Was on the hunt for good falafel in the area and decided to give them a try. They hummus (eggplant and traditional) are delicious. Love the crispy chickpeas and the star of the show def was the falafel which was soft and airy. They fry it on the spot here so it's made fresh. I'm so tired of hard rock balls of overly fried tasteless falafel. Will def come back. read more

Ordered online and picked it up (last night). The spot was decent, it was pretty empty, and yet they got our order completely wrong! It's such a bummer when you drive home and open up your food to find it's completely not what you ordered! My bowl had hummus and I definitely did not click that. There were no olives like I asked for. There was some green sauce. I picked at it and it was tasty enough, but just so wrong. My husband's bowl was wrong too! They gave us jalapeños and once again we did not order that. I'm shocked it was so inaccurate given the place was empty and the online ordering was very clear. We probably won't be back due to this. read more

We came here for lunch because we read all the excellent reviews about it. We definitely agree! The service was great and they made sure we had everything we needed. We had the create your own bowl and it was a good size and delicious! read more

I had the open face pita with tri-tip shawarma. On it i added the roasted eggplant hummus, the kalamata olive hummus, and the tzatziki sauce. After that I added a bunch of fresh veggies, feta, and topped it with tahini and garlic sauce. The meal was great adn I would definitely order it again. I loved the flavors of the hummus. The service is very similar to Kava, assembly line style, but the person doing the serving is nice and does not skimp on the serving sizes. Each scoop of veggies, protein, hummus, and topping was very generous. I would come here over Kava any day. read more

This is all I can take a picture of because I left no one crumbs on my bowl. Definitely sits well and I'm vegan so finding a good place with good food is always a gamble. This place excels on the food and the people . read more

Hummus Way - The food here is AMAZING, staff is tremendously helpful and hospitable. - Mediterranean Near Me - Orange, California

By far my favorite Mediterranean spot. Very similar to Cava but tastes way better and better portions. Been coming to Hummus Way since they've open. I love the options they have here from the Couscous to the shawarma mushroom mix. Their zesty feta, eggplant hummus, and harissa humus are so ridiculously good. Each bowl comes with a large pita bread that you can use to scoop the dips. I'm not vegetarian or vegan but I can definitely be swayed to if I can have Hummus Way everyday. Also, they have meat options that are great as well, just prefer getting the mushroom cause I never see it anywhere else. Service is always top notch and the gentleman here is always so kind. Food is always fresh and delicious! My go to spot when I want something fresh and healthy. Always feel good after eating here! Also, no fake news here. No one paid me for this review, lol. read more

It's very simple and clean place. Customer service was okay the only issue is they need hire more staff, the cashier was by himself and had to do lot of Doordash order and customer walk-in need to wait. I tried the bowl half mix spring salad and half Rice with 3 types of Hummus with Chicken Pesto. Food was very good but the paper box they use is not good for that much of food. Also, I asked for spoon which they don't have it, when they serve rice on menu should have spoon. Overall was a good food to give it try! read more

Such a small quaint restaurant that has nice fresh food bowls to make like the "chipotle" concept of choosing your items as they fill your bowl but all Mediterranean foods and toppings.

My first time trying out this spot and I will definitely be coming back. I already recommended to my friends that love mediterranean food. This place has tasty and fresh food. I got a bowl with the tri-tip and pesto chicken, it was so tender and flavorful! The gentleman building our bowls was so kind and generous with the portions. He made us feel very welcomed and answered our questions as he helped us build our bowl since it was our first time there. This was a very filling delicious meal. read more
