"Wow! This place is a gem. We ordered the falafel wrap, falafel bowl, and zaatar fries. All were exceptional. The bowl and wrap were super fresh and crunchy, and the fries are so warming and delicious! After we ordered, the chef brought us their newest item, the shwarma box, on the house. It was big enough for 2-3 people and packed with fries, cheese, Shwarma chicken, and sauce. Bursting with flavor! And so kind of him to share with us. My partner said Falafel Inc won him over to Mediterranean food :). We will be back! The parking lot and vibey seating interior make it a cute and affordable spot with big flavors."

"Starting with the atmosphere walking into the restaurant, everything feels welcoming and well put together. From the ambiance to the overall vibe, it sets the tone for a great experience. As for the food, it’s phenomenal. I especially enjoyed their shawarma and falafel also they have different sauces for you on the table. This was my second time trying them, and I’m still amazed by the quality and flavor. Absolutely love it."

"Really some of the best falafel or pita sandwiches anywhere. I used to walk a couple blocks to the one at Water Bar on Crystal Dr. until it closed. Now I walk a dozen blocks to this one since it's that good. Smoking value at $5 for a falafel sandwich. I skip the hummus addition. Falafel salad is on the weaker side vs. the sandwich. Sauces are all excellent, especially red and garlic. Orders take a little while to come out, but they're always good, and whoever is behind the counter has been pleasant. Definitely worth stopping in to try, even if you're typically a carnivore like I am."
