I've been going to this place for about 20 years and everyone I take (visitors and locals) loves it. The falafel sandwich with a banana shake is delicious. I also enjoy the gyros sandwich, with a banana shake, of course, too.

My wife and my son's entire family went to Falafel Drive In for dinner. Luckily, there was no line on a late Sunday afternoon. We put in our large order of Falafels and we were not disappointed.

After reading all the great reviews we had to try it.Was not disappointed.We waited in a long line but worth the wait.Service was friendly and quick once we got to the window.Good food! All ingredients seemed very fresh.The one thing was that the Falafel fell apart and we needed forks to finish it.Good price and we will be back
Food is fresh and tasty. Atmosphere is ... a parking lot and a small cramped interior seating spot. banana milkshakes are very good.

Saw this place on DDD and made it a point to stop by while in San Jose last week. Tried both the falafel and the gyro and both were great! In terms of the gyro, this is the best I have had! I was spoiled in college living a few blocks from Chicago's greektown...but this drive in is far better...

This place is a landmark in San Jose. The employees really have an efficient system down, so even if there is a 30 person line to order, you will have ordered and received your food in less than 15 minutes. The falafel and banana shake combo (for only $8) is simply unmatched. The banana shakes are rich and delicious, and...

I've been coming here for over 20 years. The quality is always top-notch. When I pick up friends or relatives from SJC, I always take them for a falafel before we head home. Oh, and the banana shakes are to die for.
Went here as had a veggie friend staying with me. She said it had the best falafel she´d ever tasted and I agree. The sandwiches are massive. It´s a bit of a strange set up with the old fashioned drive up type diner and it was busy so we had to line up, but it was worth it and I...

used to be a great place for falafel. cost has increased substantially and the the sauce now costs extra.. owners attitude doesnt help either.
