I've been coming to College Falafel for years now. The owners are incredibly nice and welcoming; they go above and beyond to make sure you have a great experience.
The food is always fresh and made with high-quality ingredients. You can tell that the owners care about their food and take pride in their work.
I always come back for the amazing food and the friendly owners. It's a great gem in the neighborhood.

While waiting for my bus, I decided to surprise my wife with something sweet. Since she had never tried falafel before, I thought it would be a nice treat. The couple at the shop were incredibly warm and welcoming. When I mentioned it would be my wife's first falafel, the lady seemed genuinely delighted. When I got home and opened the box, I found that she had even included an extra piece. It was such a thoughtful touch!

I went more than a decade ago and swore I'd write a review. Today's the day. You was great.

Very authentic and fresh felafel's every time. I grew up in the middle east and I can vouch for these felafels which is the closest to what you get home!

I visited last weekend and enjoyed a chicken shawarma with my wife. The food was delicious and we were very happy to see a neat and organized kitchen, even though it seemed to be pretty busy in there. Would come again!

In July I made a trip to Toronto to visit an old friend. I researched to find a new falafel experience. I chose College Falafel. It's important to note, College Falafel also offers the famous Halifax donair. It DID NOT disappoint. Matter of fact, my expectations were exceeded. I was greeted by the wonderful Falafel lady Oljana, and her husband Bardhyl. A fantastic Albanian couple. My friend John has lived in Toronto 30 plus years and has scoured the GTA in search of replicating the Halifax donair. You see, in the 80's, John played for Halifax King of Donair soccer club. King of Donair being the OG purveyors of the Halifax donair. As a club member John enjoyed the perk of feasting on many a donair. On July 3 we found the Mecca / the Holy Grail of donairs in Toronto. John said in particular, the sweet sauce took him 30 plus years back to Halifax. The meat was succulent and tasty. Oljana graciously allowed me to give her very specific instructions on how to build our donairs with all the fixings. The donairs were like manna from heaven, a culinary delight. Oh. By the way, the falafels were incredible. Wonderfully flavored, not overcooked as sometimes they are and nicely rounded. Not flattened like hockey pucks as I've sometimes gotten. In conclusion, for those in search, search NO MORE. If you want the best falafel and donair in the GTA head to COLLEGE FALAFEL. Best wishes, much future success, Oljana and Bardhyl. GO ALBANIA 2026 World Cup. Cheers all. Todd Williams from Grande Prairie, AB.

I highly recommend their catering service - they only had a few hours notice with my order for 25+ people and it was not a problem at all. The portions were good, the food was delicious and best of all the service is always A++. My guests were surprised and delighted by the quality of the food! I'm sure College Falafel has gained a few more customers. Awesome job, Oljana and Bard!

Delicious fresh falafel. The falafel pita is well sized for the price and so so good. A true mom and pop restaurant - definitely worth a visit.
