OUR STORY

House of Falafel has been serving authentic Mediterranean cuisine in San Jose since 2004. What started as a small, family-run kitchen has grown into a trusted neighborhood spot — built on fresh ingredients, generous portions, and genuine hospitality.

From the very beginning, our focus has been simple: prepare food the right way. We use quality ingredients, cook in small batches, and follow recipes that reflect the flavors we grew up with. Every falafel, kabob, and shawerma is made with care, not shortcuts.

Over the years, House of Falafel has become a place where locals return again and again — for quick lunches, family dinners, and catered gatherings. We proudly serve halal meat and offer a menu that balances tradition with everyday comfort.

More than just a restaurant, we see ourselves as part of the community. Our kitchen is open, our doors are welcoming, and our team treats every guest like family. Whether you’re visiting for the first time or you’ve been coming here for years, we’re grateful to serve you.
