Falafio Mediterranean Cuisine

My friend Adam said there were some good Mediterranean restaurants nearby when I told him about my hotel I was staying at. My friend Adam rarely disappoints but in this case he did. Why? Because he was wrong. It's not good. Good isn't even an understatement. It blew me away. This place is -hazardous-to-my-health-outstanding. It makes me want to move to Milbrae. Holy cow (and I didn't even eat it) never experienced so unfamiliar yet delicious food before. I acrually told the woman working there that, yes, while we are in November, this was hands down the best meal of 2023 for me. The owner is from Gaza, started cooking when he was seven and it shows. I'm not sure what kind of black magic he uses In his recipes but I'm all for it. Portions are generous, good for three or more even, yet I was able to clean up the whole dish myself. I had the veggie platter and it came with about eight falafalls (decent size) two dolmas, amazing salad dressing, a very generous portion or baba ganoush and some Hummus with warm thick pita. Even hot sauce. Rice was decadent and perfectly cooked. Hot. I came back the the next day tried the Schwarma...absolute perfection. Well done Falafio!Vegetarian options: No shortage of Veggie dishes here. From soup, dolmas, baba ganoush, falafel, Hummus, pita, salad and so much moreDietary restrictions: Halal style

This food goes freaking hard. Huge portions and so delicious. Very kind service.

By far the best Mediterranean food I’ve ever had!!! Kudos to everyone at Falafio.

Came here for a quick lunch. Kind staff and nice array of Mediterranean plate choices. I got the Lamb Shank plate and it was delicious. A bit pricey at $24, but the food was worth it. Meat fell off the bone. It also comes with a fluffy naan like bread, rice, and a salad. I will definitely be coming back!

I unfortunately have to downgrade my rating as this is now a very expensive place. At one point we used to order every few days from here because the food was great and price was slightly below average for the area. Seems like their price is way above the average nowadays which no longer makes it attractive as much. It also seems like health inspection noted some mold issue in the restaurant, though I'm sure staff will be on top of that.Regardless, food is really good here and I'd definitely recommend visiting at least once.
