“ Food was delicious! My friends had one of the pita sandwiches, and I had a hummus bowl with chicken! I was visiting out of town on business and just wish it were closer to where I live! The owner was very welcoming! Fantastic place, you should give it a try! ”
“ Food: I love the food here and everyone I'm in the valley, I don't miss coming to Orens Service: Quick food delivery and always presented well. Ambiance: depends on location, fits the vibe in each area. Go, Go Now! ”
“ This is my first time in this establishment. & I'm trying out something different for lunch today. The staff here is really friendly and knowledgeable about their menu. And was able to help me with picking out my lunch for today . The atmosphere is really great nice and relaxing. So I had some hummus . And dips. ”
“ Personally, I love Oren's hummus! It's made in a right way. This location in Palo Alto is my favorite, since Oren's is a chain, I have tried every location but this one stays número Uno! Service is very good and prompt! Food is always on spot. I tried many versions of their hummus and Jaffa is the best. Their Israel salad and Shepard salads are great! Babaganush is great too! So far I didn't find a dish they have I didn't like. Ambiance is typical restaurant but it give out neat and clean vibes. Negative side is that they started putting less meat into pittas. It's a noticeable now. I know inflation hitting everyone hard but skipping on meat quantities could hurt business even more! ”
“ I was searching food a good dinner spot and so happy that I found this place! The restaurant is spacious with indoor and outdoor tables. The service was so friendly! The waiter helped me with some recommendation. The hummus, the chicken, the pita bread were all so good! They use high quality ingredients as well. Even though I finished everything, I felt really good and satisfied and not bloated. ”
“ This is on the university ave on Palo Alto. This is on one of the busiest streets of peninsula. Basically you'd find plenty of restaurants on this street but this restaurant caters Greek food. It is so authentic and delicious. I never tried the pita bread this fresh. It soft from inside and crunchy from outside. We also ordered some kababs and beer but the place is so busy and the service is so good that whatever we order they were coming right out. Honestly the place has okay kinda ambiance it looked a little busy inside so we couldn't go. We sat outside and it was shaded and pretty good weather for a heater. ”
