Oren’s Hummus Express

Absolutely delicious!! Must try if you’re in the area and craving some hummus. Big portion sizes too.

One of the best pita sandwich you can have in palo alto. I always have chicken pita sandwich with fries, don't forget to ask for red and green sauce (both are spicy & refreshing).

Everytime I visit Palo Alto, I remember to have Chicken Pita Sandwich and Fries. Don't forget red and green spicy sauce.

Whenever we're having a craving for some really good hummus, Oren's is the place to go. Unlike the location on University Ave, this smaller satellite location has a smaller menu and has a more "fast food takeout" approach to it. The food is still just as good as the full fledged location and we found that getting food items was a lot faster, even on busy days. If you haven't tried hummus outside of the prepackaged stuff in the refrigerated sections in supermarkets, you absolutely have to try the hummus here. The hummus is rich, creamy, and decadent, and the pillowy soft pitas go with it perfectly. There are a variety of toppings to choose from, and if you feel like trying a little of everything, there are entrée plates that include smaller portions of popular items like the hummus, babaganoush, Israeli salad, and so forth. Service is fast and friendly, and for those who are sticklers for parking, there is plenty available in the Town and Country Plaza where this restaurant is located. With both great food and service, this is a place we'll definitely be visiting again.

Definitely one of my favorite places in Palo Alto! All options are delicious and their hummus are another level, especially the thick one…the bowls are my favorite Besides that their delivery is consistently good, everything well packed and looking good. Service was also very kind and helpful

Delicious! I had a hummus express plate w garlic falafel. I savored every bite. Plenty of food for lunch (too much, actually, I couldn't finish it). The inside was loud (music) with just a large multi-seat table so I ate outside. Service was as expected. Love the sustainable serving wear and the veggie options.

friendly staff, delicious food, large servings. I had the beef hummus: enough to share for two. it includes two large breads, plus dip, and a bit of salad. lots of outdoor picnic tables. . Will go again.

Excellent food. Parking can be a challenge but it's worth the effort. We ordered a Mongolian beef hummus bowl. Just delicious and light. You get plenty of pita bread and a delicious salad option. We had the Israeli salad which is cucumbers tomatoes red onions in a delicious light dressing.

Just as yummy as the other Oren's in Palo Alto. Great location by Stanford. Quick service. Delicious falafel wrap. So many vegetarian choices. I have loved Oren's & now I love Oren's Express!

Got a yellow garlic pita sandwich to go. I kept it in its compact box container for 90 minutes in my backpack while bike commuting. It held up really well. Sandwich was perfecto. Falafel was tasty and moist. Sauce guide: red=mild/medium, green=hot.

I went here for lunch and expected it to be busy and fortunately it wasn’t. The fries were the best part of the meal. So, so good. The person who took my order was so nice and helpful. I’m definitely coming back again. Thank you.

One of my favorite place to grab the falafel bowls. The yellow garlic falafel bowl and the green herb falafel bowls are must try.

I make it a point to visit Oren's Hummus whenever I'm in the bay area. It is a great example of simple food made amazing. The vegetarian options are plentiful and delicious. My typical order consists of a green herb falafel rice bowl along with a side of the classic hummus. The quality of my food has been consistently great and the authenticity of the recipes stands out. I'd highly recommend this place to anyone that is in the area.

I'm visiting from Toronto, where we have GREAT food from around the world. So... I'm delighted to share that the food, or at least mine and what I can see from my sister's and brother-in-law's dishes, turned out fabulous! The flavours, textures, freshness, plating, all of it. It also seems quite reasonably priced. Very prompt service, which worked out well for us. I had the roasted cauliflower hummus. Soooo good. Would definitely eat here again and try some of the other dishes.

We had eggplant hummus, pita (they were the softest!), chicken rice bowl and sweet potato fries. I loved their hot sauces on the side too! The food was delicious and so flavourful; service was pleasant and prompt :)

We had chicken skewer express plate with class falafel on the side. The express plate was a huge portion with a pita bread, hummus, baba ghanoush and salads. The dips tasted amazing and very fresh. The falafel was very perfect with moist and soft inside and crunchy outside. The chicken was well cooked and well seasoned and went perfectly with the plate. We also ordered sweet potato fries for the side and they really complemented the food. The server was very kind and took our request to season the fries for us.

We shared a Green Herb Falafel Plate with 2 white pita bread for a light lunch. The food was good to look at and even better to eat with fusion of flavors, great to taste and not reeking of garlic. We had to wait for over 20 minutes, initially got falafel and pita in a bag instead of food we ordered and the counter staff was overwhelmed. They need more staff and better service. We would love to keep going there.

Always reliably good hummus. Rich, fresh, delicious! It's hard to find better hummus around here. That said, I'm going with 4 stars because I feel like that is the ceiling for all hummus 😅

Oren's hummus offers authentic Israeli hummus in a convenient spot in Palo Alto. Service is quick and efficient Reccomend the lamb kebabs with rice, they were really juicy and had a deep lamb flavour which paired well with the fragrant rice

Food was average I’d come here if I was craving quick Mediterranean food

Many vegetarian choices Beets Hummus is not on the menu but they can make that platter ( old menu had this dish) Their green sauce is quite spicy for folks who enjoy spicy food Falafel wraps and Pita bread are fresh Don’t recommend their falafel

(3.5 stars). I didn’t have strong feelings about this place and likely wouldn’t go back, though the food and everything was okay, there’s better Mediterranean food to be had in Palo Alto. The falafel balls are tiny but also good. The pickled cabbage was a bit too sweet for me and the salad was sub-par. Staff were perfectly friendly and responsive. The inside is pretty small but does have some seating options. While it was clean and tidy, it didn’t feel like a place I really wanted to sit down and stay at. Okay but not great.
