Jason BeckerApril 16, 2012best falafel sandwich in the city by far. both east and west locations are great!
Village VoiceNovember 7, 2011We love the Vegetarian Platter – 3 dishes with tahini dressed salad is the perfect lunch time treat.
Kate HindMarch 30, 2013Get the falafel plate which comes with salad and a yoghurt dressing. So tasty.
Great cheap meal. Get the falafel sandwich with hummus
Lindsey RhoadesJuly 24, 2011Amazing falafel available late night for ultra-cheap. I've had better pita sandwiches but the falafel itself is unparalleled.
ElsaJuly 29, 2010Best falafel sandwich. Careful with the hot sauce. It comes out fast and furious and leaves you without any taste buds. Slowly drip it in.
Hot sauce is amazing, but you only need a few drops its very spicy :-)
Dan ChanSeptember 24, 2012Best shawarma ever. Go easy on their hot sauce. So much flavor, but so much heat.
Ridiculously cheap falafel for the quality. Drop by if you're in the neighborhood and looking for a cheap, tasty, and relatively filling snack.
Travis RamseyJune 1, 2013Falafel and lamb is super good. No hookah here. One across street closes at 4.
Gustavo ColmenaresOctober 14, 2010One of the best values in Greenwich Village. Good falafel ad it's cheap. I like to add tabouli to mine and it's only .50 more.
- Go to the Mamouns on St. marks place. This one is always stingy on the meat and white sauce
Besides an amazing falafel, order some hummus and taste heaven.
Samuel HowardOctober 26, 2014There's nowhere to sit. Walk north and picnic in Washington Square Park.
This guy brought Falafels to the USA. not only the best and cheapest, but it's just magical. Try a Falafel with hummus sandwich for $3 then I'll take thank you notes ;-p
Ardavan SepehrAugust 21, 2011If you are man enough, try the hot sauce. But if you do, prepare to buy 4-5 bottles of water to calm your tongue.
Greg B.November 30, 2010Best falafel and really cheap too, but they also have the really good kebab with nice chunks of meat
Lucy GoldsteinJuly 22, 2010My favorite thing here is a falafel sandwich with a side of stuffed grape leaves. 1/3 the price of Chipotle and even more filling.
MarioandMaribelle TNovember 28, 2011Had the Shawarma falafel and it was awesome!! try it with the red hot sauce if you dare =) very hott
Sociopath protip: convince your tourist friends that the hot sauce is mild. Then watch them suffer

"$5 artichoke slice (the white slice) is worth it! It's huge! You can split it between 2 people but I don't suggest it because it's that good and filling!"
