We got a plate and a wrap and both were fantastic. The Baba Ganoush is killer. I'll definitely be back.
This is an amazing place. If you haven't been there you're in for a treat.
We tried the spinach pie appetizer and the kibbi ground beef appetizer. Amazing. We had the chicken shawarma and the chicken breast kebab that melted in our mouths. We also had the falafel plate. This is the best falafel I've had in my life! Instead of that being green and overpowered by herbs, it was yellow inside and with very subtle taste. This is a must!
All plates come with rice or fries, salad or soup, hummus, roasted tomatoes and pita bread. We had beans and lentil soup which was outstanding. The hummus was so unbelievable!
The place is extremely clean and very modern. The staff was very polite, but the owner was so accommodating, pleasant and happy to have served us. He spent time with us and made us feel very welcome.
The little Lebanese spot is a quick meal place and not a full service restaurant. The interesting part is that the owner told us that he has another place that is a full-service restaurant in SJC with music and dancing. We will have to try that.
Overall, it was an amazing experience!!!
Super clean, staff is friendly and helpful! I am middle eastern myself but I still asked for recommendations, and the non-middle eastern appearing cashier explained it perfectly!!! I am so completely satisfied by the food ????????????????????
The food is amazing. It always make me nostalgic to the childhood places where I grew up. Service great. Our son is a picky eater, and since we found Olive Branch Express, it saved the day for us. He is hooked on their Shawarma sandwich and amazing freshly made French fries.
