This was a fun place to visit. The area is super cool, but if you are there there are also more seafood options nearby. Good food.
The falafel was really fresh and tasty. I didn’t think I would like the pickles but there were a nice touch. The pita chips were crispy and flavorful. I need to visit them again to try their other menu items.
They are charging incorrect prices. The menu in the store says a falafel sandwich is $6 while their online menu says $4. In reality they charged $7.
Food was good though but crazy wait times. Cashier said it would take 20 minutes, in reality took 45+ minutes and it wasnt even that crowded. Things seemed to be run very unorganized. Overall not worth it.
The cheapest place to eat while visiting and you get a lot of food! Great view of the river. Try all the sauces!
This location is awful. The employees we interacted with were rude and extremely slow. They forgot to put hummus on the falafel pita (cost an extra dollar) and also forgot our French fries (we had to ask about them twice – once when we got our pita and again after waiting an additional 10 minutes).
The food was fine but experience overall was so lacking especially compared to the Georgetown location.
This is a well-known spot for falafel with several branches. We tried this location and were satisfied with our bowl.
The only downside was the cooling system, just a fan, which made it uncomfortably hot in the summer. Aside from that, the falafel was quite good.
The food here was so good — I had a vegan shawarma bowl — that I am sad to score it so low: But does management withhold tips from staff?!? I paid with charge card and when I was given no time to add a tip, I protested to the person at the register. But the response was, staff never receive credit card tips; management keeps them. This person had no reason to lie about it.
This is not only wage theft but a fraud on customers. No one adds tips to pay give owners more money.
Gina la mejor del mundo y el Falafel insuperable!! Best place in DC
