I fed my food to the pigeons that take over. Some potato that has been fried one too many times. Disgusting food.

Love this place. You gotta get the banana shake and extra chili sauce on your falafel. Been coming here my whole life and it’s a perfect every single time.

Stopped by this place today (Sunday 08/24/2025). I ordered a Falafel and asked for the sauce and the Falafel balls to be on the side. I wanted to make sure that he got my order correct so I reminded him again I would like the sauce and balls on the side. The cashier replied ya ya I heard you the first time. When I received my food the balls where not on the side. So I brought my order back up to him and told him I asked for the balls on the side. He replied to me that they cannot do that and that its to much work for the cooks. I told him I made the same order the week prior and the other guy put the balls on the side no problem. He said that he doesn't put the balls on the side and that he makes the food the way that he wants it and not the way that I want it. Well buddy I was paying you to make the food that way I want it and not the way you want it. I got a refund and will never return to this place again. By far the worst costumer service experience I have ever had at any restaurant. #Ballsontheside

Great falafel sandwich
Amazing koubbeh
And very good kabab sandwich
However, with tabbouleh if it’s your lucky day, then it will be really good, but if it’s not your lucky day then it’s not good ( but still worth a try )

Falafel drive in has a special place in my heart, they are a family owned and ran business, and the employees are so nice and welcoming.
I love the falafels, the pineapple or banana shake, and the mini burrito they offer, simple but delicious. I hope they do great in life and in business, and I hope to see them around for many decades to come. Thank you for being such great people and offering good food.

It was a first time for us. We got the famous Banana shake with Falafel sandwich. It came with very little lettuce and tomatoes was hoping for some cucumbers and more of the good sauces, but sadly no.
We all got shakes and the banana and chocolate shakes were on hit. We all said we would go back just for the shakes!
French fries and onion rings were yum.
Iced tea was awesome too. Loved the flavor. Soda was on point too.

The food was good but the cashier was very rude and aggressive. Needs to treat customers better, we are the ones paying.

Food is still good but service is getting close to soup Nazi levels. Surcharges for credit cards and an extra tablespoon of hot sauce.

This is THE place for falafel. I’ve been coming for decades. The daily special is the perfect way to learn them: one large falafel sandwich with a banana milkshake. The sandwich is large enough to share & thru will happily cut it in half for you. The milkshake is 2% Rick’s Rather Rich ice milk plus an ENTIRE banana. Enjoy!
