This place is great! I've only been here twice, but both times were nice. Incredibly nice staff and delicious food!

Great service and food. The owner was very nice food is always fresh. My wife and kids rave about the food

I really enjoy this place! The food is always and fresh and delicious and they offer plenty of healthy options. The owner is really sweet and looks out for his customers. This is actually one of the few places where i eat in middletown. read more

My chicken shawarma sandwich was so so, def not enough pickles (pickles are everything on shawarma!!!) and it def needed some salt. The main issue was the fries. I ordered the sandwich on a pita and asked for fries on the side since the menu said "with fries +3$" which I probably mistook as meaning I could get some fries with the sandwich for 3$. When he gave me the total of 23$ (2 pita sandwiches at 8$ plus fries) it sounded like the fries must've cost about 6-7$ and I figured oh he must think I wanted a full side of fries and ok sure I'll eat and pay for extra fries at this point lol. Maybe share them with my roomie haha. Unfortunately when I got my order it was a paper coffee cup size of fries. Definitely not 6$ worth. Not shareable. I still tipped him because I can't not tip someone. And this is all probably not the fault of the cashier guy. But just think the restaurant should know the fry prices are kind of crazy...?? read more

This place is amazing! The falafel is super crispy with delicious humus and tahini sauce. They do wraps with lavash that are easy to eat as well as pita dishes with gyro meat and tzatziki. It's all good. I live an hour away and it's so good that I have stopped on my way home north from Virginia just to get some tasty dinner. read more

Super clean & modern reno! Stopped in about 3 yrs ago and loved the fresh food. Then, we went back at one point and thought they were closed. But, they were only doing their great reno! This place almost doesn't fit in Middletown because it has a more urban, current vibe. You just don't expect it from the plaza where they are located. The food is fresh, fresh, fresh and very tasty. Lots to choose from on the extensive menu. Vegan & vegetarian options abound. Easy to order and pick up, or there are a couple of tables inside AND outside on the patio. This is the kind of casual restaurant Middletown needs. Thanks, Olive Falafel! read more

Wow this place is amazing! Went for the first time in the beginning of the week and was craving it the entire week so I had to come back for lunch today! They have the best falafels and tzatziki sauce I have ever eaten. Sooo glad I work near by so I can come here as often as I want! read more

We found these guys on Yelp and have ordered delivery a few times.. I'm a vegan and my boyfriend eats meat and there is plenty of delicious options for both of us! Plus, delicious hummus for us to share! Absolutely recommend! read more

Love their gyros! Great prices and good portion size. One of my favorite places to order from.

glad to see a place like this around middletown. i have only ordered from here using the express eats app. i ordered original lamb gyro which comes with lettuce, tomato, onion and taziki sauce. also got a side of grape leaves. my expectations for gyros is high since im used to eating the best (left gyros in tarrytown). so i bit into the gyros from olive falafel. the lamb was so good, flavorful and thick slices. the sauce is the best sauce , better sauce than left gyros. just wish there was more lettuce and tomato in the gyro. the grape leaves - a little disappointing. it comes with 6 and the rice inside was a little hard. maybe it was that day. ill try some more another day. overall, i will def recommend the gyro. in fact, maybe ill go inside the store this weekend! update-- been to the actual store twice since i last posted. there is a decent area to eat in. met the owner. very personable and made sure i had enough lettuce and tomato in my gyro. i cant get enough of the gyro. it is excellent. also, they have a special - every tuesday, gyros are only $5. i do love a good deal! also i tried the baba ganoush with their warm, soft naan bread.... yummmmmmm read more

Gave this olive falafel a try. Ordered 3 items, one of which was the sampler which is chicken, lamb and falafel over rice. The chicken and lamb looked like they were the left over scraps from other dinners. The pieces were basically diced so small that I could not even pick them up with a fork, they needed to be scooped up. Chicken was also dry and tasteless. For $18, my expectations were a lot higher. read more

Stopped here for lunch one day. It was messy, delicious, and filling. The staff were friendly and responsive. Would happily eat here again.

Yesterday I ordered a Greek salad with chicken and a Rotisserie beef/lamb gyro platter. Everything was good except the olives in the Greek salad were not kalamata olives that go in a Greek salad, they were black olives that you buy in a can. We will order again but next time if I order anything with olives they should be Mediterranean olives. read more

Stopped by this evening with family after a tiring day at Legoland. Was pleasantly surprised to find this place a few minutes away from the park, and to get a break from stale pizza and chicken tenders. We tried many items on the menu, all made from scratch with fresh ingredients, and none of them disappointed. The mixed gyro and chicken shawarma plate was well prepared and filling, and the kids items were tasty as well. Would highly recommend if looking for high quality food and excellent service on your visit to the resort. They also had a small but convenient outdoor patio seating area. read more

This place is great.... you just might miss it if you don't drive carefully. They take care of each plate they prepare. It's cooked to order. It'sGreek Mediterranean food and it's delicious. They have salads, plates, bowls, and Gyros. The falafels are excellent too. The prices are good for the quality and quantity of food you get. This place is on my 'good-food' list. read more

Ordered a chicken shawarma sandwich today. However, it is not a shawarma sandwich. It's just chunks of chicken in a pita with various veggies. The chicken was dry and had no flavor. If you want a real shawarma sandwich go to Paterson NJ and see what authentic is. For $9 I expected better. I have eaten here in the past and food was much better then. Two stars today because the girl at the counter was very pleasant. read more

Had the "Schwarma Mix" wrap, mmmmmm delicious. Good portions. Great food, great service.

This place is AMAZING. The owner is so nice and proud of his food- as he should be since everything there is so authentic and delicious. This is my mom and my most favorite place to eat and I highly recommend it to anyone stopping by!!:) definitely suggest getting the hummus (every kind is fantastic!!!) read more

Delicious food, above & beyond service, the menu is extensive and caters to how you would like your Mediterranean cuisine prepared. Had the vegan falafel platter and friend created her own gyro platter. Large amount of food for a decent price. Worth while to try (takeout if you prefer to eat comfortably as the location only allows room for a few small tables) Left satisfied :) read more

This is the hidden gem of Middletown. Always great! The Shawarma and 300 gyro are my favs.

How does a Greek deli serve stail pitas bread? And, they left several items from my order my first visit when they first opened. I decided to give them another chance recently. They left the side dressings out again!! And when they charge extra for them m, there is no excuses. read more

Food was delicious, outdoor seating area was nicely maintained, and the staff was fantastic. 10/10.

Fantastic Mediterranean spot in the middle of nowhere. A true hidden Gem... Extremely diverse and unique fusion menu. Fresh ingredients. Superb service. The owner(George) was very hospitable and accomodating. Rolled out the red carpet and offered white glove service. The falafel, tabouli and hummus was super fresh and delicious. Chicken shwarma was succulant, moist and grilled to perfection. The homemade "fire" hot sauce was deff FIRE and tantalizing to the taste buds. If u are in town for Legoland or any other reason.. or a local resident, U MUST check this spot out for the food...the ambiance and the exceptional customer service. read more

The best falafel in Orange county. Outstanding customer service. The food made there is made with love. The entire staff is awesome including the owner, George. read more

I recently discovered this place existed. The food is incredibly tasty. I've had a lot of Mediterranean food in my time, but there truly is something remarkable about the food at Olive Falafel and Deli. We had the greek salad, falafels, a variety of hummus and the baklava. Everything was made fresh and the flavors were on point. The tzatziki sauce and baklava was the best I've ever had! I had the privilege of meeting the owner, George, and he is delightful. He shows great care and concern for his patrons, as if they are a part of his family. This is evident by the high quality service and food he provides. Kudos to you! Needless to say, I can't wait to try everything Olive Falafel has to offer! read more

On the road, ordered on phone and paid ahead. Easy. Tasty falafel and stuffed grape leaves. Hit the spot. Good value. Thanks very much!

Chicken shawarma with their homemade garlic sauce and homemade hot sauce is killer. This place makes me wish I lived in town!

My favorite gyro place in town. I love the gyro with onions and peppers, hot sauce, and tzaziki...my husband always has the gyro and chicken shawarma and it's always good. We also enjoy the falafel, hummus and beet flavored hummus, rice pudding, and chicken tenders and fries. All are great! We are regulars and will continue to go back! read more

This place is a rip-off! Was charged $30 for two $5 "Tuesday Special" gyros, a $4.75 side of onion rings, $3 for a side of fries, $3.00 for 4 falafel, and a soda. Why the discrepancy for what is added up above versus what we actually paid? Because the owner states we didn't request the $5 special gyro and got the "regular" one. Not true. But what is the difference between the $5 special and the regular? He tells us, "I put twice the amount of meat on the regular one versus the special." Well, that's not a special then, is it? That is what I call deception. Asked us if we wanted to give him our gyros back and he could make us the "special" gyros instead of refunding our $6 for the difference. Why, so you can 1. Throw the food away or 2. Give it to another customer after it left your hands. Doesn't make much sense, does it? Rather than give us the refund he'd rather lose our future business plus have us write a negative review. Pretty bad business practice if you ask me. Also, note the amount of onion rings you get for $4.75. Sorry, pal, you lost two of your customers, and we have been here many times prior. read more

See all

The best best falafel ever. Owner greeted us with a smile and kindness. Loved this place! Going back! If you love Greek food, look no further!nekqyw-mohdYz-mebto6 read more

Great restaurant! The owner is very nice! Super personable. He asked if we wanted to stay and eat in. When we said yes, he brought us over some free samples of food to try, and they were declious! They do cater somewhat to food allergies. I have a gluten and dairy allergy and I had plenty of food options that were there. The good was super yummy and the prices were very reasonable. You got a good amount of foos for the price. Overall, great experience and great time. read more

Great food. Far exceeded my expectations. Friendly staff. Always stop in on my way to Pennsylvania.

Delicious food with lots of flavour and healthy, im vegan and I got the veggie supreme plate. Very fresh, nice owner. Recommended!

The Olive Falafel is my first choice for a satisfying night of Greek food in Orange County (the gyros, spanakopita, fry bowls, baklava, IT'S ALL STRONG!). It's a quick stop off of 211, it's consistent, George (I don't know if I'm spelling that right - please correct me if I'm not) and his staff are excellent, and I'm a huge fan. read more

Wow this place is SO GOOD. Amazing customer service and the food was delicious. Aaron was so helpful and so accommodating to us. Thank you for such a wonderful experience. HIGHLY recommend. read more

Olive Falafel and Deli doesn't serve your average Mediterranean food... the food here is incredible!! The taste is out of this world and the presentation makes it even better. The owner, George, takes his time and pays close attention to detail when it comes to flavor and different food options. The color of all the food is so vibrant; it's like a work of art for your palate. To top it off, customer service is 1000% perfect. Good food from such a humble restaurant owner. I would recommend this place to everyone, near or far... for lunch or dinner, you won't regret it! Excellent job Olive Falafel and Deli!! read more
