Absolutely delicious. Nothing more to be said. Owner is very friendly. Best chicken and rice. Been going here for over 15 yrs. Go here NOW.

I only needed a snack so I had the falafel a la carte and it was incredible. I also appreciate the outspokenness of this business against the current gen*cide. All the respect to them and freedom to all!

For under 10 bucks, it's the best falafel sandwich I ever had. They even give you fresh falafel at the register! The sandwich itself also felt pretty generous. Would definitely recommend getting everything on the falafel sandwich.

Amazing food! The falafel was crispy on the outside but moist and flavorful on the inside. I had the chicken kabab platter with hummus. I devoured every bite! I loved the generous portions! The tender chicken combined with the salad, rice, and white sauce was so delicious. I highly recommend!

I've been meaning to try this place for years and I'm glad I finally got the chance to go today. I've lived in NYC my entire life and this was the best falafel I've ever tried, the perfect amount of crisp and spice. The mixed kebab plate was enough food for 2 people, I'll be coming back again soon for sure.

Such great people there! Always friendly and welcoming. They usually give me fresh falafel while I wait for my order. Food, overall, has always been delicious. Also, gotta say, I love the flags.

Not even 1 star King of being cheap The service was awful I ordered beef kebab and chicken The mixed plate barely had any rice and the meat was tiny pieces just burnt and no meat to eat . You're not honest and over charging people money . More veggies than meats n rice and they don't even give sauce lol

I've been visiting the truck over at Ditmars and 31st for a while, so I was curious to see what the brick and mortar store looked like. The parking situation is not great as there is a bus stop in front of the restaurant. Luckily, the staff was kind enough to help bring out my food while I waited in my car, which I really appreciated. I came in late Saturday evening to order the Omar platter ($13.99), a side of falafel for the drive home ($2.75), and a small rice pudding ($3.99). I was later told that they were out of beef shawarma so I opted for the chicken and falafel platter instead. But when I got home, I realized they gave me a chicken platter with a single falafel when there should be at least four. It's possible they misheard me but I was quite bummed about the order mix up so I'm subtracting a star. The rice pudding was also not that great-- the individual grains felt undercooked and lacked that creamy texture that makes rice pudding so addictive. Overall, I think I'm going to stick with the truck. Mostly because the parking is slightly more tenable there. I'll come back to the brick and mortar if I forget my wallet and need to use Apple Pay.

Really love the decor of the place. Plus food is really good with reasonable portions. Mint tea was surprisingly delicious.

I ate there recently and what struck me immediately was the mouse droppings on the floor. Because I was with a friend, and we were already there, we didn't leave. But to top it off, there was a hair in my falafel. The food is ok, nothing special, but I'm not coming back.

Best falafel in NYC - they have the certificates! So tasty and authentic. I adore this food truck. Whenever I am near Grand Central I always go there.

Disgusting. There was an article showing that they sell horse meat and buy the humus seeds from stolen import. The falafel was awful and the meat was rotten. Don't buy there!*don't fall for the owner's antisemitic response. The food there is dirty and disgusting. Will cause you food poisoning. He pays bots for good reviews!
