His children grew up to run the family business, which is how Falafel’s DriveIn got its well known charm.
Falafel’s DriveIn provides gourmet food with fast service and a casual environment.
Absolutely delicious. Everything was executed well from the packaging all the way to the freshness preparation and speed. I will definitely be coming back. The falafel is very flavorful and tender. Highly recommend. The shake was also very tasty and had a nicely balanced sweetness level. I wish that they consider making a meal for the pitas as well.

Gyro meat was SO TENDER! And the veggies were good too; exceptionally fresh and crisp! Every was super tasty. The hummus was well-made although a bit less viscous than I prefer. The pita I got as a side must have been the last of the bag, because I got the bag they came in - straight from https://www.jerusalembakery.us/ . Locally owned and delicious. Will order again!

Been coming here for over 40 yrs. The food is delicious and consistent in quality. The hummus is the best ever! Smooth and creamy. Have yet to find better anywhere. The falafel is the best. Crunchy outside. Soft inside. One of my favorites is the Kouby. (Kibbeh in Syria) its a Bulgar wheat exterior stuffed with ground meat (beef?) seasoned well and pine nuts. The only complaint... NOT AVAILABLE ON DOORDASH.
Babaganoush is delicious and the pita bread is always fresh. They must go through a ton of it daily.
Always a line outside. Worth the wait!
Enjoy the street art on the patio walls. It tells a story of San Jose.
And dont forget the banana shake!
They really need to add the Kouby to the DoorDash menu!!!!!!

Tahini sauce is creamy/foamy, very different from what I'm used to and I was pleasantly surprised :) The tabbouleh was fresh, baklava was flaky and sweet <3 and the falafel was MOIST on the inside and crisp on the outside. This is a gem of a place--I can't wait to drive over next time and patron their business in person. :)
