Oasis Food Market

The food is good and fresh there try it out. The people are friendly and the prices are fair.

True rating would be 3.5. The cafe portion is inside the food market which is pretty neat! It also smells delicious when you walk in, I ordered a falafel with hot sauce and it was really well made. The pita was thin and fresh and the hot sauce/sauce mix was great. The falafel was a little bit dry and I wish there were more things inside the falafel outside of lettuce. Aside from that I would definitely go back and try again/something different.

Might be the best falafel I've had in the east bay, it came out freshly fried and just melted in my mouth! I liked it better than Wally's which has to be my favorite mediterranean food in the bay. Their hummus and baba ghanouj was quite nice too, though I prefer Wally's (which is a high standard) and the muhammara was decent (though a little too spicy for me). The bread was thicker and different than the usual pita I'm accustomed to, and it went well with their lentil soup, which was a healthy and delicious broth.

My dad really likes this place. It's across the street from "pill hill" on the telegraph side of the hill. They have been here for hella long but I have only been here a handful of times when giving in to my dad's request. They have a small grocery store side and a deli style cafe side. It is very popular with the EMTs and hospital staff. The staff seem very nice on the occasions that I have been there. The food is quick and healthy and it actually tastes good. So my concerns are that tables are not at clean as one would like matter of fact even the many of the other surfaces are no so clean. So just don't let your imagination wander about the things that the public can not see is all I am going to say. Other than that you can get a decent meal at a good priceOh also one last thing don't try to call ahead they never answer the phone

Everything was so much better after the pandemic "ended"... Except their hot sauce is now just "Crystal" hot sauce, no longer made in house. This was one of the few things that stood out here, with many other options on the area.I got a side of "hot sauce" and did a side by side comparison with crystal, and can tell no difference. It used to have obvious chili flakes/seeds in it, and was my main factor for going here.If you ask them, it is still "made here" but if you want actual Mediterranean hot sauce, I recommend elsewhere (they have bottles on their shelves that are better)Edit: They also used to have the tomatoes and onions on the spit, but now you only get raw tomatoes and onions, not from the spit, and the flavors don't infuse the same (plus raw)

The best halal / mediterranean food spot in the bay area..... and i have been to most of them.... simple menu.. chicken, tilapia, lamb and falafels. They also serve samosas, shewarma wraps and lentil soup.

Cute and friendly small open-air feel market with hard to find items at decent prices. Right around the corner from the Oakland Islamic Center, gets busy right after Jummah noon prayer. The cafe is a big draw, great prices & delicious food. My coworkers rave about it. There's a lot on the menu I def want to try so I'll be back on Fridays when we have time.

First time here I ordered the chicken shawarma plate & a side of falafel also a piece of baklava. The chicken shawarma & humus tasted rancid a & chicken smelled really bad. I believe the food was old It was not edible unfortunately I threw it away. The falafel was fresh & the baklava were delicious.

I tried the lamb shawarma hummus plate. They did not skimp on on quantity of hummus or meat. The meat was a little bit dry but good flavor. It came with a small salad, small cucumber/yogurt, and a fresh pita. The hummus replaced the rice in many of the other plate dishes. You order at the cash register in the market area.

What happened to this place? This place has gone downhill since the last time I shopped here. The shelves are bare in many areas! I only found one item on my list. There was one other customer in the place. It seems the owner has given up. Sad!!
