Easily best falafel I've had in the bay area. Also have a very tasty banana shake.

We enjoyed our falafel balls with hummus. I also tried their vegan onion rings. Husband had chicken pita which was okay-ish for him. Pigeons roaming around was bit off for his hygiene-freak mind. I didn’t mind it at all as they were minding their own business.
I also liked the graffiti on walls! There was not much of wait time for us today noon.

I've been going here since I was a kid (roughly 20 years now) and their quality has never wavered. Hands down best falafel in the Bay area, and I've tried a lot of different places that serve falafel. Also their banana shakes are just iconic, so I recommend you try one of those too

Hands down the best falafels in the United States. I am constantly on the lookout for a great falafel, and I simply cannot find anything that comes close to this great and quirky place. If you want to have a great dining experience with the best falafel in America, you must try this place.

Over rated falafel place. Mild/bland falafel, it much sauce, felt dry and hot sauce lacks spice. Disappointed

Been coming here since the 80s. It's been a long time but they keep making them the same great way. Large falafel and a banana milkshake...a classic combo here.

In the heart of San Jose, amidst the hustle and bustle, lies Falafel's Drive In—a haven of flavors and nostalgia. Amidst the lunch rush, I found myself drawn to its retro charm, reminiscent of a bygone era. The fries, crispy and golden, were a delightful prelude to the main act: the vegan-friendly pita falafel sandwich. Laden with a unique spicy sauce, it danced on my palate, a symphony of sweetness and heat.

As I waited amidst the crowded atmosphere, the anticipation only heightened the experience. The pita, when it finally arrived, proved to be a satiating delight, fulfilling both hunger and nostalgia in equal measure. Despite the hustle, the ambiance inside was surprisingly pleasant, a testament to the establishment's enduring charm.

Though the outdoor patio was abuzz with patrons, I found solace within the cozy confines of the interior—a convenient respite for weary travelers staying at the nearby hotel. In the midst of the chaos, Falafel's Drive In stood as a unique beacon of tradition and taste—a culinary adventure worth savoring.

Bad customer service. Owner is rude make a big deal about not to give extra sauce even the I am ready to pay for it. He’s discriminating the customers.
