“ The meat here is always juicy and crispy. Been going there for a long time now, they have the same consistency. I live the part when they give you a free falafel ball with every order, though I didn't get that this time. The chai there is also great ”
“ Mediterranean Wraps is a personal favorite of mine in the area because it offers large portion sizes with delicious well balanced dishes. Our go-to items are the chicken shawarma plate and the chicken shawarma wrap. The plate comes with chicken shawarma on top of chicken stock rice, a side salad with a pickle, hummus, and pita. The chicken is always soooooo flavorful and is not overly salty. The rice is probably my favorite part because it's so luscious and packed with flavor. Every bite warms my tummy. The chicken shawarma wrap has the same yummy on it but with lettuce. Pro tip is to ask them to wrap it in a pita instead of wrapping it in the tortilla. The tortilla is very mid and the first time we had it was disappointed but we had the idea to ask them to wrap it in a pita and it HITS!!! Another pro tip is to ask for extra tzatziki and tahini and they will give it to you on the side. The falafel is also delish if you're in the mood for that. Also they do have inside and outside seating. Sitting inside is not the most enjoyable experience since it's a little stuffy and small but we always take it Togo to eat outside or at Stanford. It travels well! Parking can be difficult but cal ave does have free public lots that you can usually find parking in even during busy times. But regardless you will need to do a short walk to get the the restaurant since the main st is blocked off from cars. Mediterranean wraps is one of my ultimate favorites in the bay. Great tasty dishes for pretty reasonable prices given the location. I crave it all the time! ”
“ The food here is sooo good and always hits the spot! It's so fresh and tasty. We've had the falafel wraps, the falafel salads, the schwarma wraps, french fries (homemade style), the lentil soup and the tea. It is all big portions and consistently delicious. The staff is also super friendly! Try the roasted eggplant too! ”
“ I have eaten at so many Mediterranean restaurants. When I'm sick of tacos, pizza, and burgers it's my go to for a healthier lunch option. Mediterranean Weaps is my favorite among the dozens of middle eastern restaurants I have eaten at. The falafel is perfect - crispy on the outside, nicely cooked on the inside and just the right spice. The chicken schwarma is always cooked deliciously. The sandwiches wrapped in a tortilla like flatbread that is grilled with a tiny hint of burn that gives the sandwich an additional flavor that is completely welcome. For two bucks more add potato and eggplant. The service is quick and efficient. Sometimes they will give you a little something extra - a falafel ball or small cup of sweet tea. The restaurant is clean and nice enough for a place that was probably opened a couple of decades ago. If you're anywhere near Palo Also, check out this place! ”
“ Great vegetarian Mediterranean food if you are in Palo Alto. I was so sad to hear my other fav, Zadna Bowl closed down so we headed here and it was just as good as i remember it from a warm summer evening in 2017 :) Went with our usual order of Falafel deluxe wrap which had veggies, falafel, eggplant and potato chips with the usual sauces. We also got a side of babaganoush and pita which was delicious!!! The place is modest and clean, has a few tables in the patio which is nice for a warm evening. Unbelievably fast service too and it was perfect cause our hike up Stanford Dish worked up a good appetite ;) ”
“ This is a cute little shop located close to Stanford with a great owner and mouthwatering options for lunch or dinner. I got the Falafel Plate and the falafels were genuinely some of the best I've ever had. They were crispy and went so well with the hummus, which was also delicious. You can never go wrong with veggies, falafels, and hummus! The owner is so generous and so funny! He gave us the best tea of our life and an extra falafel with our meals. He definitely knows the true meaning of service and connecting with your customers - will be back to try more of their options! ”
“ Takeout Order: 8.5/10 Chicken Shawarma Plate $16 9/10 Kufta Kabob Plate $16 Both plates came with a salad, hummus, and pita bread. Salad was below mid (no dressing but fresh ingredients). Hummus was yummy, smooth, and filling. Pita was soft and great for wrapping. 1 pita might not be enough (rec 2 or splitting 3 pitas between 2 ppl). Chicken was a bit dry but amazing seasoning! Kufta was juicy and also had a lot of flavor. Both had amazing portions for meat so value lines up with price. Kuft also had grilled onions which were so good! ”
