A standardย in theย area isย Sam’s Falafel. Get there early unless you want toย standย on line. It gets really long during lunch hour. Very tasty and very filling.
UPDATE 7/23/2024:
Sandwich is $8 and platter $10
Falafel tastes sour? I donโt know if itโs gone bad or maybe another ingredient but it was never this tangy.
$7 sandwich with 100% fresh ingredients!!! Best bang for buck lunch in FiDi hands down
Best falafel platter in Fidi. $10 for a whole platter of delicious fresh vegetarian food-if you work or live around here and havenโt tried a platter you are missing out. The guys are so friendly and nice. Line moves quickly, you get your food, itโs practically two meals. Go there now!
First visited Sam's Falafel stand 14 years ago, last time we visited the city. It was our favorite thing we tried on that trip, so we had to come back this time, and it did not disappoint! Sam is still serving crispy falafel with so much flavor and friendly service. The falafel has a perfect texture, not too dry, and he packs the sandwich full and tops it with roasted eggplant and onions, fresh lettuce and tomato, and layers in the tahini and hot sauce. Even my kids loved it. The most satisfying lunch you'll find for under $10!
Excellent food for a great price. You can get a Falafel Sandwich for $7 with Hummus, Babaganoush, Fried Eggplant and Salat or Combo Platter for $9 with the same ingredients but even more food. Everything, literally everything is awesome. I was just thinking about which ingredient was the best but it's all really good. Drinks are also just a dollar and the vendor was really kind too. He even redid one of our sandwiches because the hot sauce is "very hot". ๐๐ป
And you can pay with card too.
Went here just cause of their only vegetarian falafel truck! But, too bad that their wraps were pretty bland. If youโre expecting some level of spice like me, them you may not end up liking it. But, itโs situated in a nice location where you can takeout and eat like a picnic. You might still like it if you like no spice food!
