It's the first time we're in the Virginia area. We were looking for a hookah shop. By chance, we found the place, of course, without exaggeration or advertising, but really one of the best food I ate from restaurants in all of America. From all the Arab shops, falafel is different from the shape and the thyme is different from the shape, but I was shocked by the taste, quality and cleanliness. I wish you to open our state in North Carolina in Raleigh.

This was a 10/10! Food was very delicious, fresh, flavorful, and fast. At the end of the meal they also brought us complimentary tea with mint and it was sooo delicious and soothing. The atmosphere is calm. I would come back again and recommend to friends.

The two gentlemen running this restaurant were so friendly and inviting. We ordered, indulged in the classic falafel, grape leaves and gyros! They made it a point to offer us delicious, hot mint tea, with a smile of course. And even offered us some special dessert! The flavors, presentation, and atmosphere is 10/10. I will be coming back soon.

Truly some of the best food I’ve ever had. They use the freshest of ingredients. The plate presentation is an art. You can tell the staff cares about the taste as well as the look of the food they make. The staff was also beyond kind and generous. I will for sure be coming back whenever I’m in the area.

I drive an hour to come here because this place feels like home (and because their falafel is perfect). Wonderful owners who treat their customers like house guests. They make Roanoke a better place.

It's just a challenge to find a better presentation of this homemade, exquisite Mediterranean kitchen. Falafel house isn't just a restaurant. It's a display of beautiful artistry.

Extremely mediocre, order not fulfilled accurately.
Outstanding Middle Eastern dining. Check the menu out and be assured the portions are generous and delicious for very reasonable prices. Any sandwich is a complete meal and the 5 appetizer assortment is just great for sampling Middle Eastern food. My mom is Lebanese and I lived in Morocco for awhile and this Falafel House felt and tastes just like home. Top the dinner off with a sweet bakery dessert. They also serve authentic Mint tea made with fresh mint leaves and sweet just like I to drink evenings in Morocco listening to musicians playing and singing throughout the night, the same music playing here. Felt like I was back in Tiznet, Essaouira, Tangier, that is the atmosphere of the Falafel House. The super friendly owners are Palestinian and I pray for their families back home. Well worth a visit and the experience.

This place is the real deal. Authentic falafel, hummus, vegetables, pita, baba ganoush, etc. Best in Virginia.

We met friends for dinner at Falafel House, not having been there before, and were pleasantly surprised. The food was spot on — fragrant, properly seasoned, and full of flavor. Every dish tasted fresh and delicious.
The atmosphere is relaxed and family–friendly, and the service was genuinely kind. We ordered an extra meal to take home for our son, and they waited to prepare it until we were leaving so it would be as fresh as possible. Such a simple gesture, but it really showed how much they care about their customers.
Overall, a delicious meal and a very positive experience. We’ll definitely be back.

I always order takeaway, generally its a chicken shawarma platter with their appetizer mezza, and tabbouleh. I would highly recommend the food, the rice is so flavorful, and all of the dips are wonderful. Very fast approaching my favorite restaurant of this cuisine.

Food was amazing and staff are friendly. The space is very clean and well kept. I got the gyro platter and a side of labneh and baba ganouj, they were all delicious! I was given a hot fresh falafel to snack on that was so good I’m coming back for more tonight. Great food and quick service- I will recommend this to anyone!
