Excited for Falafel Goodness
I had been meaning to visit this cute and quaint place since I discovered it during a Google Search for Mediterranean food, specifically falafels, in my neighborhood. My friend treated me to lunch recently, and I finally got the chance to try it out. I'm glad I did, as I liked the place and the food. Unfortunately, they have now closed for renovations until further notice. I can't wait to order from them again once they reopen and hope the renovations don't take too long. I wish I had ordered from here sooner after finding it, but now I have to wait for more falafel goodness.

Shawarma was way too salty!
My experience with the beef and lamb shawarma wrap and bowl was overwhelmingly negative due to the excessive saltiness. Both dishes were sooooooooooo salty that I couldn't finish mine because the roof of my mouth became sore. This made the lunch experience quite unpleasant.

Quick Service, Yummy Turmeric Rice & Falafel
My experience at the restaurant was great! I enjoyed the quick service and the yummy food. The turmeric rice was the best, and the falafel was very crispy and flavorful.

Hearty Lentil Soup Delight!
My experience was centered around a truly enjoyable bowl of lentil soup. It was quick, filling, and delicious, served with fresh parsley and two fresh pitas. This hearty option, priced at a fantastic $5, is perfect for warming up on a cold day. Thanks to the team at Falafel Boy(s)!

Flavorful Shawarma, Mediocre Sides, Fast Service
My experience at the restaurant was a mixed bag. The chicken shawarma was truly flavorful, a definite highlight. However, the accompanying hummus, pita, and salad were very mediocre and underwhelming. On the positive side, the service was really fast, making it a worthwhile option if you need something quick.

Alright Food, Fast Service
My experience at the restaurant was alright. The food was decent, and the price was also acceptable. What stood out was the speed of service; the food was finished in five minutes. However, it looked like the meat was cooked ahead of time.

Good Food, Wrong Orders
I want to love this place, as it's a good quick food option in the neighborhood. However, four out of the last four times I’ve been, my order has been wrong. I recommend double-checking your pick-up order, opening the bag to ensure you have your soup and add-ons, and then it’s great.

Great food and smooth takeout experience
My experience at this restaurant has been consistently good. The staff are friendly, and the food is great. I usually order through Grubhub, and it's always a smooth experience.
