Came across this food truck at the Jazz On The Hill community event in San Mateo this past weekend. Ordered the gyro quesadilla filled with cheddar/jack cheese and gyro meat (the other option on the menu chicken shawarma). There was no line, instant service, and my order was ready in just a few minutes. The quesadilla was very flat, noticeably so (to someone who eats a lot of quesadillas from different places), but there was indeed a layer of meat and cheese in there and it was still satisfying. The gyro meat was tasty, nicely seasoned, more flavorful than what I've gotten at most other similar eateries, even if the meat was cut fairly thin. read more

I had the falafel plate and it was yummy! The falafel was light, crisp on the outside, and moist on the inside. The hummus and baba ganoush were good too. read more

Abraham and his team are friendly. They provide a good service and good sandwiches. The price is reasonable at this time. Recommend to give them a try! read more

Swiss chard soup $7 - New item, vegan, warm, comforting, thick, filled with beans, chard. Falafels $11 (4 pieces) - The reason they say they don't sell this a la carte anymore because they lose money apparently, and the cook doesn't like cooking falafels (but it's the name of your truck?). It's really good. Will come back for their other vegan items - Babaganoush, hummus, salad. read more

Abraham and his team are such sweethearts! We hired his food truck for a company event and the food was so fresh! They are the best food truck company in the Bay Area and I'm not just saying that. Try it for yourself read more

We got a taco plate from Falafel Fresh at the CSM farmers market today, and it was soo good! The gyro meat and falafels were super flavorful and cooked perfect, the sauces and toppings were all super fresh and packed with flavor, and the owner and staff were all so nice and friendly. The lentil soup was also fantastic!! One of the best soups we've ever had. We will definitely be back next time we are at the farmers market!! read more

Falafel Fresh--what a friendly food truck! If it's not obvious from the name, this neon green truck offers falafel and other Mediterranean eats, which I got to try at the College of San Mateo Farmers' Market! The namesake menu item was the falafel, of course, which I got on a plate along with hummus, whole wheat pita, and a simple salad of lettuce, tomato, and parsley. The falafel balls were freshly fried and tasty (though not particularly memorable), and the hummus that came on the side had a thick, dense texture. I loved how the plate also came with a small side of tahini sauce, which made for a nice creamy dressing for the salad! But even better than the falafel was the gyro sandwich, made of slices of beef/lamb gyro topped with onions, lettuce, tomatoes, and the best part, tzatziki sauce, all on a whole wheat pita bread. I loved the combination of the chewy flatbread, the salty gyro slices, the crunchy vegetables, and the creamy, tangy tzatziki sauce, which brought everything together! While the prices at Falafel Fresh weren't the cheapest for the portion sizes, this was definitely one tasty stop at the farmers' market! read more

My favorite food truck! I always get the felafel wrap, which is simply delicious and healthy! Wish they come to our workplace more often!

Tried the food today and it was ok. The lady who runs the food truck is sooo RUDE! She was yelling at her young employee while he was cooking in front of me. Her mean face expressions while she made my gyro was a big turn off. Apparently another reviewer had the same experience with this lady. The old man who runs it was very nice and sweet though. He needs to get rid of her or she needs to work behind the scenes where she's not dealing with customers. read more

The truck was outside Home Depot on Blossom Hill and Santa Teresa . I decided to stop , the gentleman was super nice . The falafel is so so good ! I will absolutely stop again if I see the bright green truck ! I can't wait to try other items as well ! Some guy drove by when I was getting my order and yelled out "thanks man , my gyro and falafel were amazing " it was a good sign ! He was right ! read more

The falafels here are made fresh. Definitely like the wide selection of sauces. They just get really busy at lunch time and finding parking is so tricky. Will be returning for dinner soon. read more

Ibrahim and his crew are wonderful to work with! The food is delicious, fresh, and made quickly. The customer service is exceptional. We invited Falafel Fresh for a large event and heard rave reviews from our guests about the food! read more

Oh man the mana bread is the best I've had around these parts. Have you been to Reem's and had her za'atar man'oushe? This is shockingly better than Reem's! Falafel Fresh makes mana bread using whole wheat. It is incredibly delicious and healthy. Tastes fresh out of the oven. I was skeptical at first but man, I am sold. I can't wait to go back and have the falafel wrap! read more

This food truck took part in our annual company party. I must say, they have probably one of the best falafel in the Bay Area. Not greasy or tiny (like falafel drive in), really crunchy exterior, with a moist and very flavor rich interior. I'm not an expert, but this guy is doing it right! I also tried the gyros...Nothing special. The falafel is definitely the star of this truck. read more

I was Looking for some good Mediterranean food in my area and came across this truck. when I tried the falafel i was more than pleased it's moist on the inside and crunchy on the outside! I definitely recommend this place, but for some reason Yelp always says that they are closed if you want to see when they are open just check the website. read more

Falafel Fresh is but isn't the best rendition of falafel there is. locale: Santa Teresa Farmers Market (3/5) menu: falafel wrap, salads, gyros, shwarma, fries, eats: falafel wrap(8) -fried chickpea balls, lettuce, tomato, mint, parsley, tahini sauce, pita wrap -falafel crunchy. overfried, tasteless -lettuce, tahini sauce dominated wrap taste -wrap double wrapped so no leakage till the end -looked like a small burrito -falafel may be bigger here, liked chains, bay area falafel places more. -sammie flavors not balanced, lettuce should be schredded to downgrade taste dominance. 3ish stars. take outs: -very friendly people, here just for food, not friendship. read more

This is a tent that pops up at farmers' markets around San Jose. I ran into them at the Santa Clara Valley Medical Center last Wednesday. These guys offer a falafel sandwich for $7. I decided that I wanted to down some meat, so I ordered the gyro for $8. My friend ordered the four falafel balls, which seemed pretty dang pricey at $5. Not sure if the cashier was on his game but I actually had to ask him about how to pay for my order after I walked off to wait without paying up. Also, he didn't fill out a ticket for my friend's order, so we waited an unnecessarily long time. After sitting down to eat, I sampled one ball from my friend's falafel order. It was pretty good. I wouldn't say it's necessarily better or worse than other falafels out there, but it's cool that they can make this out of a tent. As for my gyro, I did enjoy most of the ingredients, but the mint was overpowering and spoiled the experience. If they're going to charge me a higher price than brick-and-mortar eateries (for example, the large falafel sandwich at Falafel's Drive-In is $5.75), then they need to deliver something comparable or better, and I don't think I quite received that kind of food. Give them a try though. Maybe you'll like it. read more

One of my favorite places to eat. Too bad they are only here (at the Evergreen Farmer's Market) on Wednesdays and Sundays. The number one thing that I like about eating here is that it is a family owned restaurant, so they always remember the way I like my falafel sandwich. I order it without tahini, but sub it for tzaziki and I like it extra spicy. They make your food on spot, so it is always warm when you get your meal. They also offer samples of different foods that they sell to try for yourself before ordering. Their prices are good at only $5-6 a sandwich. They also offer gyros, soups, and different plate options. I would definitely recommend checking this place out! read more

This truck came to my office for lunch today and I LOVE Gyros so I thought I'd give it a shot. While it wasn't necessarily bad, I had high expectations and I'm not sure if it was worth the $14.00 I spent. I got the lamb and beef Gyro ($9) and an order of fries ($4). The Gyro pita was super soft as expected, had a decent portion of meat but the tzatziki was too minty for my liking. Also, I have a huge pet peeve about burnt french fries, especially since they are so easy to cook geez! I will say that everything did taste fresh which is their promise and the staff were extremely nice and friendly. They gave me several suggestions, my food was ready fast and they take ATM which is convenient. I give Falafel Fresh 3 stars. 1 For the food, 2 for the awesome service, but I cant say I'd run out to the parking lot again the next time they show up. read more

I've literally eaten a hundred of this mans Falafels and Gyros, and help sell a thousand more to friends and family by bringing them to his stand. His food is great! Only problem is (and the only reason I'm only giving 4 stars) he's barely been around our market lately, and seems sporadic at others. We look forward to his falafel, only to end up giving our business to the Mexican food stand or the someone else, wishing we were eating FRESH FALAFEL! Come back to CHAMPS more consistently please, or better yet, open a small Falafel shop that never moves :) Add me as a friend if you "Feel" my review! read more

Falafel Fresh - Order up! - Mediterranean Near Me - Carson City, Nevada

We visit this truck at the San Mateo Farmer's Market. Sometimes we go the market just for Falafel Fresh. Truly the best chicken gyro I've had. Also, they occasionally have Esau's porridge, which is so, so good. If they ever have it, get it!. Service is fast and courteous. read more

I want to speak to the kindness of these folks. I'm a doctor at Santa Clara Valley Medical Center and this food truck was parked outside our clinic. I went out there in the rain and they told me they've put everything away (it was already after 1pm) but gave me a cup of really delicious lentil soup on the house. It made a tough day so much better. I hope I venture out again when they're parked near us because good people like these are who I would love to support as they supported me today! read more

They used to drop by during lunch hours in the North San Jose area near Pay-Pal. I never missed this truck as they used to stop by only on Fridays (this is before Covid). Best Chicken Shawarma ever eaten, really simple ingredients nothing too fancy but bursting with flavor from the well seasoned chicken and garlic sauce. If you find this truck definitely try it out and oh... the Mana Bread is awesome too. read more

I just had their chicken shawarma wrap ($9) and I was surprised how good it was. Everything came together well: chicken tastefully marinated, garlic spread, a pickle spear, tomoatoes, and a couple french fries. I would not order the gyro because the meat does not come off a gyro spit. Owner and cooks are friendly. Also the physical truck is brand new and pretty impressive - it's like seeing a new big body Mercedes compared to other food trucks which are like used cars with a fancy wrap. 5 stars for just the chicken shawarma wrap! read more

The falafel was okay I wouldn't call it the best one I've had but the service was spot on... my favorite still has to be Campbell Farmers Market Delicia's Falafel Clear Wrap. This is definitely a good place for lunch for hospital faculty though and I love how considerate they are to vegan/vegetarians. The meat is separated from vegetarian and fried separately. read more

I LOVE THIS FOOD STAND! i go every Saturday to the Kaiser Hospital parking lot ( At Kaiser Permanente San Jose: Santa Teresa Blvd.) to spoil myself with the food they sell. i know some of you make say the price a bit high but honestly they are so worth that extra $1-$2 and i will tell you why: - they are very clean, unlike a lot of restaurants. they even wash their veggies at the stand so they got nothing to hide from customers -they are very nice people -customer service is great - bread tastes fresh,unlike Drive-In falafel restaurant - i try to support small and private owned businesses - the flavor is unlike others, unique,fresh and homemade for all that, i don't mind putting that extra dollar or two on my bill ! SO WORTH IT! Ohhh, and sometimes,they sell Shawarma and if you see that in the menu thats your lucky day because its AMAZING! Also, try the garlic sauce and the delicious gyro ( RECOMMENED) I will see you guys on Saturday! :) read more

I love this place! My brother and I come almost every Sunday to get their Gyro sandwiches. They are great and also so are their falafel balls and shawarma wraps. But best of all I love their SPICY HUMMUS! They gave to us once to take home and try, and have been hooked ever since! I would definitley give this place a try! read more

They have the BEST falafel wraps in the bay area. The falafels are light and moist on the inside and are perfectly crispy on the outside. This food truck has become our go-to place every Saturday at the San Mateo college farmers market. read more

Very tasty fresh food, I ordered falafel sandwich; was the best of the best. Clean place and very friendly staff: nice location too.

Patronised this food truck at the Saratoga Eats festival, what a mistake. 11$ for a small falafel wrap, which was cold and not very tasty, and 2 freaking $ per super tiny vine leaf wrapped rice. I call that a ripoff. read more

Fresh made food and awesome customer service. I got to meet Abe and he's such a cool guy! All the items are great!! Stop by and enjoy and healthy hearty lunch!!! read more

This was the BEST falafel I have ever tasted, and I've lived in NYC and had falafels up and down the left and right coast! Ibrahim the owner attributes the unique taste to his method of making the tahini sauce, with toasted ground hulled sesame seeds. Vegetarians and those of us who are lactose intolerant can appreciate that he doesn't use dairy or yogurt in the tahini as well. Do yourself a treat and find that truck! read more

Falafel Fresh, I just wanted to thank you so much for the incredible vegan baklava that you made for our wedding!!! We had a number of vegetarians and your baklava was an absolute hit! Thank you again for everything! I can't wait to come to the market and get some falafel and baklava. Even though I don't live in San Jose, your falfafel Sandwiches are always so fresh and tasty that I've been craving one bad - so we will definitely be visiting Evergreen soon! :D read more

I ordered pita with baba ghanouj from a truck. The baba ghanouj was very salty, as if pickled in salt. The pita was cold (refrigerated) and didn't taste fresh. Perhaps this is not their forte. read more

I've had the best falafel I've ever had today! Not only was the falafel super fresh but also hella flavorful. I also got the Gyro which was bomb too. Lastly, the lemonadre is a must have! They make it with Rose Water! Abraham (Owner) & his wife and staff are super friendly too! Will be om a lookout for the food truck in Nov. read more

Follow this food truck on Instagram and find it! Everything I've ever had from this truck has been amazing. The chicken shawarma is so flavorful and the beef gyro is great. Best fries of any food truck in the Bay Area hands down. Also the owner is really friendly and you feel like you're eating a real home cooked meal! Definitely the greatest middle eastern food in the area! read more

Was craving for Falafels, but too lazy to go to Falafels Drive In. So I decided to give this place a try. The Falafels balls are good, but I'm not sure if its my sandwich but it is SUPER sour (overdid on the lemon juice/sauce maybe?) that I couldn't taste the rest of the ingredients. Now my stomach feels weird. Too much acid. Price-wise, it is $7 for a Falafels sandwich here. Falafels Drive In is $8 for a large Falafels sandwich and a Banana shake! Much better value. -1 star for value -1 star for my super sour-tasting sandwich The people are friendly there though. read more

I'd heard great things about this truck - and it lived up to the hype. The falafel was awesome, the gyro was fantastic, and the owner/chef was super friendly! Amazing flavor! read more

Yum! I get to enjoy these guys 1 x week during downtown farmers market. I love that the falafels are super fluffy and they sometimes put mint inside of it- double yum! Always fresh and always tasty. :) read more
