    Chicken Kabab Rice Plate
    Mai N.

    I really loved their chicken kabob plate. The chicken was juicy. The rice was fluffy. The cucumber salad was not overdressed. Every item on the plate complimented each other. What really put it over the top for me was the garlic puree and sliced pickles.

    I lost count of how many times I have been here but every single time this place exceeds my expectations! Literally best kabobs I have ever had. So fresh. So delicious. So tender. Full of flavor and authenticity, you can even just eat the rice by itself and it'll be so yummy! I promise you won't be disappointed! Try it now!

    Chicken Shawarma Rice Plate

    Walked in with very limited seating indoors but very clean. It is our first time here and ordered the lamb/beef shawarma rice plate and chicken shawarma rice plate and both were really good. They had tons of the flavor was rice was super good. The salad was delicious and hummus tasted super good as well. I wish there were more roasted veggies instead of the raw onions and pickles. The staff was nice and took out ordered quickly and served the food quickly.

    Mixed Grill - beef, lamb, chicken skewers over rice, with sides

    Food - a surprising, quality/ value! I was literally the last customer who walked in and ordered at 10 minutes before eight. The food was piping, hot, really beautiful, very tasty. Definitely recommend! Service - the people on the line were definitely keen to get out of there. Although I had indicated that I was going to eat my food on site when I ordered, nobody said I was required to get it to go, but the package it to go and insisted on giving me a bag. twice as I sat trying to quickly eat my meal a team member came by and said not to hurry you, but we're closing now and we're gonna lock the door. This was at 8:04 as I sat trying to hastily gulp, my hot food, which unfortunately did detract from the otherwise nice food part of the experience. ultimately, I made sure to get out the door at seven past since the workers were pretty firm about that but in most restaurants if you could finish your meal in 15 minutes or so after ordering it while they cleaned up, it wouldn't be a big deal. Alternatively, and this might actually be a reasonable suggestion to consider? maybe management should simply advise people who walk into order to say that all orders are to go, in the last 15 minutes of the business day. I think that would help people understand that they're not welcome to stay on the premises after 8 PM sharp. All in all I highly recommend the food. on a nice day you can sit outdoors as well as in a couple tables indoors. Just make sure not to be the last person ordering!

    I stopped by Falafel Tazah after shopping at TJMaxx and I was so impressed! I cannot eat gluten or dairy, and when I ordered, I was going to order the Chicken Shawarma rice plate without yogurt sauce, and right after I asked for no sauce, the cashier (I think his name is Mohammed based on the name on my receipt) asked if I am allergic to dairy. He let me know that the marinade for the shawarma is yogurt, but that I could order kebab instead (the kebabs aren't marinaded in yogurt)! He also let me know that they have a tahini sauce and a hot sauce if I'd like to add those to my meal instead. I'm so glad he caught that and thought to ask! I also ordered a side of fries, and when I paid he let me know how long the wait would be. Both people I saw working were super friendly and welcoming. As he handed me my bag, he reiterated "all of the sauces I put in the bag are dairy free". There is plenty of parking since they share a parking lot with TJMaxx, Starbucks, Best Buy, Chipotle, Jamba Juice, etc. The inside of the restaurant is very clean with just a few small tables, so I'd recommend taking your food to go. You can see them make the food right in front of you as well, which I always like! The food was very delicious and fresh! Although I usually prefer thinner fries, they were well seasoned and very flavorful. The chicken was juicy and full of flavor, and went so well with the rice, cucumber salad, and hummus. They also give you pickles and onions, which really added to the dish. Overall, I had a great experience here and will definitely be back!

    Grilled Beef Kabob Salad
    David K.

    Falafel Tazah is a casual Middle Eastern grill offering a menu of casual fare packed in takeout boxes. The Vegetarian Combo was a nice sampler of their mezzes including creamy hummus, smokey baba ghanoush, two dolmas, two green falafels, tabbouleh, cucumber/tomato salad, sumac onions, and pickled red cabbage and cucumbers, all served with grilled Jerusalem bakery pita bread. While the dips were decent, the other components could have been better, as the falafels were soft and greasy, and the salads/pickles were overly acidic and sour. On the side came a few sauces including spicy red chili, tahini, and a spicy aioli, all of which were flavorful and enhanced the other components. Overall, while this wasn't the best Middle Eastern food I've had, the prices were fair and the service was friendly!

    With Mazra closed on Monday, found this as sub and was pleasantly surprised. Portion size was good, food was tasty. I especially liked the rice. Will definitely return.

    Stopped by for a pita pocket with falafel and fried eggplant and it really hit the spot…read more The falafel was crispy on the outside and soft inside, not dry at all which is always the risk. The fried eggplant added a really nice flavor and texture, super soft and perfectly cooked. Everything together in the pita just worked. Fresh veggies, good sauces, and a solid balance without being too heavy. Portion was generous and filling. You can tell they're using fresh ingredients and putting some care into it, not just throwing it together. Nothing fancy, just really good, satisfying food. Definitely coming back for this again.

This is a generously-sized combination plate with 6 falafel balls, hummus, tabbouleh, 2 dolmas, cabbage, beets, sauerkraut, roasted red bell peppers, salad, pickled turnips, sumac onions, pickled cucumbers, mild banana peppers, garbanzo beans, $16.45 total if you add pita, additional $1.25 to add baba ghannouj. The baba ghannouj is excellent and can be added as a topping (or order separately). The falafel and hummus are good (although the hummus starts to feel a little rich if you eat a lot of it. The beets are good. I should probably ask them to skip the tabbouleh, sauerkraut, and pickles next time because I don't eat those. This plate alone, along with pita bread, was enough to fill my 2 kids and me up. 2.Falafel salad, $18. 6 falafel balls with fattoush salad. This was very good! Dressed with just the right amount of tasty dressing. Good combination of a light-feeling salad with the heftier falafel. This dish alone was probably enough for myself and 1 kid. 3. Mango milk, $5.50. Delicious. Similar to a mango lassi but made with milk instead of yogurt, so it feels a bit lighter. The three of use shared this. Parking available in adjacent lots or on streets.

We genuinely cannot pick a favorite because both are consistently excellent. Our regular order is the chicken gyro salad, loaded with fresh greens, tomatoes, cucumbers, pickled onions, hummus, tzatziki, and a generous portion of chicken gyro meat. Everything tastes fresh, the meat is flavorful with those delicious crispy edges, and the spicy sauce adds exactly the right kick. It is filling without feeling heavy and somehow always hits the spot. Both locations have been remarkably consistent with quality, portions, and flavor. When you find a meal this reliable and satisfying, it naturally becomes part of the weekly rotation.

There's something about being able to grab a fresh meal, sit outside alfresco, and just enjoy the California weather that makes everything taste a little better. Nick the Greek always delivered exactly what I needed--quick service, fresh ingredients, and food that felt satisfying without weighing me down. That consistency is what kept me coming back again and again. My go-to order was the gyro salad with pork belly, and to this day I still think about it. It was light but filling, bright and balanced, and never heavy. Crisp lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber, olives, feta, tzatziki, rice for substance, and warm pita on the side. I would always swap the red wine vinaigrette for the lemon herb dressing, which tied everything together perfectly. It was, quite simply, the perfect salad. Every time I ordered it, I told myself, "You really should learn how to make this at home." And every time, I didn't--because it was just easier to let Nick the Greek do it for me. What I appreciated most about this location was the reliability. You could walk in hungry, get your food quickly, and know it would taste the same as the last time--fresh, clean flavors, generous portions, and no fuss. That's harder to find than people realize. I moved away in 2023, and now that salad lives in my memory as one of those simple pleasures that made everyday life a little better. If you're in San Carlos and looking for something fresh, fast, and consistently good, this place is a solid choice. And if you find yourself sitting outside on a sunny day with a bowl and a piece of warm pita, take a moment to appreciate it--because someday you might move away and miss it more than you expect.
