TomJune 23, 2017Love the falafel pitas here. Affordable, generous portions, and delicious. Make use of the salad bar and top all you want on your pita, bowl, or salad. Use the LevelUp app for loyalty rewards.
Sam SDecember 31, 2015Don't forget to order falafel! I made this mistake and was quite sad. Be sure to load up on the salad bar. It's well worth it. Great food.
Lenny GalloMay 5, 2019Nice place in the heart of midtown. If you’re looking for something quick, tasty, and on the healthier side it’s a good choice. Love their sauce selection. Pita is made fresh.
Serious EatsApril 23, 2013Toppings Bar: Not all of the salads and sauces are vegan, but plenty of them are: cabbage, broccoli, pickles, tabouleh, and more. That's a lot you can stuff in a pita, with or without falafel.
Linda MiklowitzMay 12, 2016Wonderful condiment bar of about a dozen house-made salads plus sauces available with order. Prices reasonable. I like the falafel salad. Lots of room for the condiments.
ThePlasticDiaries.comSeptember 8, 2014The falafel is delicious and crunchy. They offer soy shawarma meat which is also delicious and lots of toppings. Some salads & sauces aren't vegan - opt for the vegan tahini.- L. T.April 26, 2019This is my go-to for a quick cheap and fresh vegan meal when I have the misfortune of being in Times Square.
Holly DeLeonDecember 23, 2018The falafel pita was the best I've had in years. It was delicious. It had all the fixings added to it which made it extremely messy and oh so good.
Ren De WittFebruary 25, 2019Falafel pita sandwich with fried eggplant and lentil soup. Don’t forget to get some toppings for your sandwich. 🙂
Fahad H.May 9, 2015Tasty shawarma and breads. Fruits are fresh from the shop and the dressing is self serving 🇺🇸. Value for money too 💵
VictoriaAugust 8, 2018Disappointed they are no longer vegetarian but as long as there is no cross contamination, I’m fine with that. All toppings are vegan and so delicious, and did I mention, UNLIMITED?!
Aditya MSeptember 25, 2013Nice place for lunch. Seating is limited the shop isn't that big, but its clean and nice. The Pita sandwich really fills you up provided you stuff as much as you can while picking you toppings :)
dara lynneOctober 1, 2011Good spot for a quick, lunch. Get the falafel and hummus in a whole wheat pita then dress it up with unlimited toppings. The cauliflower and hot salsa is delich!- Serious EatsMarch 15, 2013Dutch vegetarian chain with a vibrant toppings bar for customizing pita sandwiches, and french fries to boot.
Rohith RaoMarch 22, 2016Solid falafel and unlimited toppings. Great for lunch in time square (if you are cheap and work around)
Get the salad. It comes in a bowl. After your done piling on the toppings in a pyramid, squish the lid on top & request the dressing on the side. The amount of food u get is worth every buck!
Well-ive eaten here like 4 times in a week-so I think I'm diggin it. If u order the sammich deal and want a lil more than the pita will fit off the salad bar-they will give you a lil' plastic dish!
honeywhatscooking.comApril 1, 2015Love the chicken salad bowl with a side of hummus. Healthy and satisfying.
Zack PackerAugust 13, 2014Falafel salads heaped with veggies - um pickled eggplant? Yes please! Tastes fresh and super nice service.
carthusApril 7, 2011Get the falafel sandwich a la carte instead of the meal deal. After garnishing your sandwich with unlimited salad toppings you wont be able to finish the fries.
- Nate BeattyApril 25, 2015The pickled baby eggplant is clearly the winning topping. Broccoli and cauliflower is a close second.
Jessie BeanNovember 4, 2012They have some of the best fried eggplant I've ever had. The food is always fresh, and the place is always clean!
simhskalAugust 3, 2013Get the combo. They give real fries and apple juice. One hell of amazing and healthy food place.
Rewan PartiApril 21, 2014Eggplant and Falafel is a great combination! Don't forget to take their garlic sauce
Leatrice JonesJune 17, 2014Second best falafel I've been too. The tahani sauce tastes waters down but everything is quite tasty.
Prefer the salad meal, your can put a lot more food in the bowl than in the sandwich. You'll get enough for the whole day!
Daniel WandermanJanuary 30, 2018It's no longer a vegetarian spot, but food is great and still plenty of vegetarian options
James FiltzOctober 21, 2011It's messy, often packed and not for the meek but the falafel is Amazing! And both types of fries are insanely delish!!!
Llira LandiJanuary 26, 2012Very yummy food. Love the salads. Very convenient close to the studio. Dinner before practice.
Faith KastenAugust 9, 2011Had take out and it makes me wish there was one closer to my home. Totally loved it.
Niki GAugust 28, 2018Olives had a weird smell in it! Also the employee said you can’t refill the bowl
Raena WilliamsJanuary 20, 2012Get the junior sandwich. It's just as filling as the regular but less cals!
The Corcoran GroupMarch 19, 2012Get the Meal Deal – the Falafel is delicious and you can add all the toppings you want (love the Pickled Baby Eggplant) and add the Sweet Potato Fries.
