I have followed this cafe since their first location many years ago. Fresh authentic cuisine with many vegan options available. The falafel wrap is my go to when in the University Circle area. The hummus and lentil soup are the best around.

I came to Cleveland to celebrate my birthday. I have been dining out all weekend and Falafel Cafe is by far the best food I have had in a very long time.
The food was fresh and delicious, the service was extremely friendly, and I will most definitely be back the next time I come to Cleveland.
The best Mediterranean food I have had in many years. The baklava is also incredible!
The prefect end to a weekend celebration!

Very underrated spot. Philly sandwich is the best sandwich in the area. Fries are amazing. The vegetarian pita wraps are a very nice, light lunch (and the ones with shawarma/kebab are great of course). It's a one woman shoo, she is great!
