I ordered a veggie platter which had tabouli, 2 falafels, hummus, 2 dolmas, and tzatziki sauce. I added a gluten free naan which I had before and it had been good. This time the naan was hard. I took it back to the counter and he had the waitress bring another one to me. It was more chewy than the last time I had it on a previous visit, chewy almost hard but not as hard as the first that one they served. No one came back to check and see if it was ok. The food was ok other than that, not as flavorful as other places I’ve eaten
This is one of my favorite restaurants! They have a hugr variety of gluten free and dairy free options. They are knowledgeable about the menu and willing to modify dishes, when possible, to meet my dietary restrictions.
Great catering! Had a fantastic experience catering a dinner for 70 staff and it was delivered. Delivery was ontime and they did all the set up! I needed t have Gluten free & vegetarian options and they had a great variety for the staffs dietary needs. The manager Angela was great to deal with and had great customer service. If you need to feed a lot of people that is affordable - this is the place! Great food & customer service!
Asked for gluten free options and was told that the kebab sandwich was gluten free. I asked twice before ordering if the guy was sure that the sandwich was gluten free, and he kept saying yes. I asked the owner again if it was really gluten free when we picked up the order and he said yes. We opened the box and they used a regular wheat pita bread. Not sure if they are plain stupid or ignorant. Either way, not cool.
So happy to have found a new place to get REAL falafel! This is some of the best falafel you can find in the metro area! It's made from "scratch" (not a dry mix) it doesn't have any fillers (bread crumbs,etc.) it's gluten free, vegan, and "cooked to order". You can get it in a sandwich, in a salad, and even a side of 10 pieces of falafel. The owner makes a nice green tahini sauce for the falafel (you can get traditional tahini if you prefer). It's not greasy, it's not heavy, and it's spiced just right.
I tried some samples of chicken and beef shawarma which were very tasty! Will have to try a shawarma sandwich next visit! This is a good place to get "take out", but they have some tables and chairs if you want to eat there (good to eat this stuff while it's HOT), It's next door to the Joy Theater so suggest it for a quick bite to eat before a movie! (better than popcorn and candy!!)
Prices are VERY low.... lots of desserts I didn't try (yet). Good quality middle eastern food in a modest, clean and friendly environment.
Welcome to Tigard Falafel Express! Hope you'll be around for a LONG time!
