This location of Falafel Corner is truly special. Ammar, who was running the entire shop, is an excellent chef. He added a great balance of spices along with ranch sauce to my two chicken shawarma platters, and the result was outstanding. The chicken was moist, tender, and perfectly spiced, with a bold flavor that stood out immediately. The rice was cooked just right, the hummus was incredibly smooth and creamy, and the pita bread came out fresh, hot, and soft--almost doughy in the best way possible. The extra ranch sauce on top of the shawarma was the perfect finishing touch and really elevated the dish. Beyond the food, the experience itself stood out. The location was very clean, and I had a great conversation with Ammar, who is finishing college and was extremely hospitable. On a rainy Saturday, this was exactly the kind of welcoming, high-quality experience you hope for. I will definitely be coming back to this Falafel Corner location again and again. read more

Just give me some rice, marinated meat, some hummus, and I'm a happy boy. I would say this combo is my go to comfort take out. As you can imagine, there are a plethora of restaurants that offer this meal, so I think it's important to sort out the good ones - and this is one. Nothing was overdone. The rice was colorful and soft. The meat was tender. It came with two sauces: a light yogurt sauce and another sauce that was very tangy. The hummus was very smooth and creamy. Mix it all together, and you get something very delicious with each bite. This was a takeout order, so I cannot comment too much on service or ambience. One of the cons to my meal is related to the DoorDash interface. As someone who likes to add heat to their meal, this was not present on the DoorDash in her interface. Can someone from falafel corner comment on this? If I want to make the spicy, do I have to put that in the comments? Is there an option in store to do that? In my opinion, that was the biggest thing holding this meal back. Also wish that the pita was a little more fresh and well kept. In terms of packaging it was simply put in a small paper container like the one that holds your fries at McDonald's. I know that's a small detail, but sometimes a nice piece of warm, fresh pita can make a difference. read more

My friend and I came here for a takeout dinner. The food was so surprisingly good! From the outside it doesn't seem like much, but it blew us away. We both got the falafel plates and it was full of flavor. The falafel was seasoned well and crispy, and was honestly some of the best falafel we've ever had. Inside is small but the food really delivers. I've been recommending this spot to my other friends, and they've gone to try and liked it too. Would return! read more

Service was fine. Nice counter service. Quick to get my to go order. Hamburger definitely looks 100x better on their menu board. Are the onion rings a joke? I opened this up. (See pic) read more

Food was pretty good, ordered food online during lunch. It took a little while to get my food, however great taste of food made up for it

This is hands down the best falafel corner in sac. The sauce? The gyro? TOO DAMN GOOD!

10/6/2022: I woke up too late cooking myself breakfast-AGAIN . . . DOH~I'm behind schedule! I gotta drive from Placerville attending an appointment via Mid-Town/Downtown Sacramento CA. Welp~Resigning thinking I'll just buy something to eat somewhere inbetween Sutter Hospital and Sacramento Food Co-Op, I guess; I'll just bumble down the street after completing my appointment and eat wherever BUT, I do not know ANYTHING regarding Mid-Town/Downtown Sacramento area at all which is where YELP! becomes poignantly instrumental finding cool, delicious food I will undoubtedly choose inhaling! Frantically searching YELP! I discovered Falafel Corner: YUM~Today, I do want inhaling sumptuous, exotic cuisine . . . Zip over to Falafel Corner-STAT because I'm egregiously famished! Upon embarking Falafel Corner's parking lot . . . The parking lot was JAM-PACKED and upon noticing Falafel Corner's marquis entrance, I noticed Falafel Corner's menu photo adhered to the window imploring me inhaling food here! So, I marched right into the restaurant and my eyes focused honing on ONE menu selection: THE COMBO MEAL! Okay~Let's inhale this deliciously enticing meal; undoubtedly, this combo meal shall be history. Oh????? What's this? Oh! LOOK: I get a FREE Turkish Delight because I'm a Yelper? OH, YEAH~Lol! I show the Man my YELP!'s Free Turkish Delight Schwag via my iPhone: Thank you so very much, indeed, Falafel Corner c/o YELP! I waited about five to ten minutes for the combo meal. Funny~I'm not interested reviewing Falafel Corner's "other" menu selections posted above the counter; in fact, I didn't bother looking~lol! Finally, the combo meal arrives. Yes-It's mine, all mine, and I'm promptly inhaling this immediately without further delay. The first thing I noticed upon opening the styrofoam container was the hummus appeared so creamy and so smooth . . . Then, my eyes gravitating clock-wise noticing the fresh, green salad-YUM . . . The combo meal is definitely a well-balanced choice for me . . . Whoa~The two main dishes appear as seriously intense POVs! Digging in, the hummus~oh-the hummus: Truly an orgasmic, foodie delight, indeed; inhaling the hummus was the first order of business. Second, inhaling the fresh, green salad . . . YUM! Third, voraciously attacking the two main dishes: Ooooof, I can only eat a few more morsels-waaaahhhh~I'm full! Sadly, I'll just resign eating what I can't inhale now as my dinner later this evening which is one-half of the combo meal I photographed~lol! read more

We are Team Falafel Corner and have been for years! Although we are loyal to the OG Natomas restaurant, the East Sac one is way closer and equally as delicious! Service was friendly and fast. Parking is a little tricky in the lot, but there's street parking too. I highly recommend Falafel Corner to literally anyone who will listen. I could eat here everyday. Their food is fresh, packed with flavor, and a generous portion for a good price! Perfect food to take to-go! We usually opt for the gyro platter which comes with gyro meat on a bed of rice, drizzled with sauces, a side salad and hummus. Oh, and pita too! Don't forget to add a side of their spicy sauce (it's so freakin' spicy but addicting!). We love you, FC! read more

I doordashed for lunch and it's down the street from my work. The time it took for me to receive my order didn't take too long. The wrap was huge in size, stuffed with such flavorful meat and had the perfect amount of sauce:) would definitely order again. The only thing I didn't like was that the onions were whole sliced, like for a burger instead of diced up, which I prefer The fries were crispy and yummy too! read more

I wasn't planning on getting food in this area but I was honestly drawn in by the smell of gyros. I got the salad with gyros added on, and took it home to eat during online class. The meat itself was good, tasty and with a good texture. I think it was tossed with a really light dressing, which was good, and stuffed with feta and cucumbers. I just wish there weren't 8 lbs of onions on top, and probably next time I'll ask for the meat in a separate container so it won't get as cold. But overall not bad. read more

Stopped by on our way to our hotel. Came across this place, food was good. Waited about 30-40min..there was only one guy working there with at least 20 people waiting. He did his thing..took orders, cooked the foods, and served them to the customers. Definitely more folks working there. Food was good, we ordered the chicken platter. Would come again read more

Went there tonight for dinner. I ordered the combo platter, chicken & gyro with rice, salad. It also came with t h small side of hummus & sliced pita. It was seasoned well and was quite tasty. However, the gyro tasted more like chopped hamburger vs lamb. I've had gyro many times and what I got tonight wasn't it. read more

The food is amazing! The service is great and friendly and the restaurant is nice and clean. The food is very affordable. We will be back! My Falafel wrap was out of this world! read more

The service was truly dismal, I was shrugged off when I walked in, but the man dropped everything for two white ladies that entered after me. And when another customer entered and asked about the main product, the Namesake, he couldn't even explain what was in Falafel, imagine that, "The only man working at Falafel Corner can't tell you what you're eating" a horrid reality. read more

Falafel Corner - Outside the Store - Mediterranean Near Me - Sacramento, California

This place was good about two years ago but over the last year and a half the quality has been declining and the quality is not the same. It all started with the hummus and now has carried all the way to the gyro and falafel. The gyro is disgusting now, the pieces are all chunky, chewy and gelatinous. It no longer tastes the same and is slimy and gamy, almost like a cheap sausage. The chicken is chewy and seems like it's reheated in a microwave. Owner Toqueer is rude and combative when he receives criticism, they opened a dozen new locations and they're obviously struggling and it's affecting the quality of the food. I used to eat here weekly but when the people at my neighborhood east Sacramento location started to become rude and the food quality declined I stopped all together. I no longer recommend falafel corner. 1-12-23 It's funny, the majority of five star reviews are for the food prior to your "personal taste changes", so clearly it was good before. If you think it's good now, that's great. Good for you. I can't understand why a good thing has been changed, it's not as good now, I no longer frequent your establishment. You'll make thousands off of a satisfied customer but not a dime from a dissatisfied one. I simply frequent a different halal restaurant now. Thank you for the offer of a complimentary plate, but I will decline. read more

Stopped by here with my brother for lunch and must I say, it was delicioso! 10/10 food. The service was phenomenal and attentive 10/10. The ambiance is quiet and clean 10/10. Love the location and it's right next door to a taqueria. Also right across the street from a Bank of America. Shout out to Anna. She was amazing and very kind. Had a great conversation while she was making our food. Lovely soul and better yet an awesome worker. Definitely would come back. I had their dessert right before I ate my entree lol. It was so damn smacking. The lamb gyro was on point. Packed to the brim. read more

Called in my order for takeout, and they said it would be ready in 8 minutes. That was perfect timing since I was across the street finishing up some business. Parking spaces available in small shared lot. Walked in and warmly greeted by owner (?). While waiting for my food to be bagged up, the beautiful baklava and "Turkish delights" in the pastry case on the counter caught my eye. I ended up getting a couple pieces of both kinds of the Turkish delights, which were unfamiliar to me. The beet colored one was like a fruit gummy with pistachios covered with vibrant pink rose petals, and the other was like a chocolate ganache with a chewy outside. Both delicious, unexpected, and a nice finish to my falafel platter. Portion of the platter was huge. Easily 2 meals or shareable. Everything was great! Crispy on the outside and moist and flavorful falafel, creamy hummus, soft freshly baked pita bread, tasty tzatziki (pro tip: ask or order extra!!!), and mild rice pilaf to perfectly compliment the well-seasoned falafel. Even the simple side salad, dressed in red wine vinegar, was yummy. Excellent service, food, and value! read more

Falafel Corner is keeping things consistent at this new location on Alhambra Blvd. The takeout was ready upon arrival (right on time) and it was warm. The portions seemed a little bit smaller than prior experiences, but everything tasted great. Four large falafel balls that are crispy on the outside and fluffy in the middle. The chicken and gyro was tender but again not more than 4-5 oz on the platter. It's a lot of food though either way with the bread, hummus, and salad, and semi-flavored rice, plenty of carby deliciousness. If you have $10-12 and need a large meal this is a great spot. read more

I usually go to the falafel corner on J St. they've always been pretty solid. I was wanting to try a different location and knew about this one on the other side of town. I went in and was met by a girl who took my order. I got a falafel wrap. It was going to take about ten minutes, so I thought I'd order some hummus. No prob. I was already into the wrap for like $12 after the unnecessary tip I gave. Pretty expensive, I thought. So then the hummus was another 3.40, no tip because it was like I was putting her out. Got the hummus from the dude with the tats on his face. Just hummus. I asked for naan or pita to eat it with. Shockingly he asked for another $1.40! WTF?? Shouldn't it be included???? I got what was the equivalent of maybe one piece of pita cut into quarters. Rip off.... The falafel finally came. The pieces of falafel looked like sausage Pattie's. There were three of them in the wrap. Pretty hard to eat because they were so thick. The falafel was just ok. The sauce and the other contents were not bad. Very messy. The napkins on the table are like what your grandma would have at her house. Come on dude... buy restaurant quality napkins. I must have gone through ten of them. Anyway, the service wasn't great, the food was average, and waaaayyy overpriced. Kick down the pita bro. Go to the Mexican joint in the same center. Much better and they are friendly at least. read more

I haven't tried them before this occasion about a week ago and I can say they're pretty decent with certain deals they have if you don't know what you want. My only issue is my fries were cold with the first bite and the burger was good meat wise but patty not seasoned and that bothered me as usual. I would recommend this place to a family or friend the area is nice and you don't have to pay for parking like downtown Sacramento which is really not fair. read more
