Namitta ShankarJune 7, 2012Very cheap, vey crowded, very very messy while eating. Not extraordinary tasting falafel either(I've had better). If you're hungry and you like crowded noisy places you're… (1 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more
Luke SmithOctober 13, 2010Get the falafel with hummus for an affordable, delicious & filling meal that's also healthy :)
Haven't tried too many shawarma spots and don't need to
THE BEST place to grab a quick, cheap lunch. If $2.50 isn't your spending limit, try the mango juice.

AlyseAugust 7, 2013I usually LOVE everything. But today I went and the pita with my falafel smelled and tasted like it was on the back of a truck. Cigarettes and dirty hands. So gross. Plus they upped the price. Boo.
Almost all other falafel pales in comparison to Mamoun's.

"After you've had a few different flavors of the falafel sandwich (green and harissa are my favorites), go for the sabich (sa-beech) sandwich. Fried eggplant, with a sliced boiled egg. Delicious."
Sajid Mehmood - 8.9
"Huge, tasty falafel made fresh to order. Bonus: they're also gluten-free & the menu is strictly vegetarian & mostly vegan. Traditional Middle Eastern fare with a gourmet twist. Try the saffron aioli."

"Standout falafel in herbal green and spicy red variations--a must for Tribeca lunchers."

"A beautiful park and a must see for any visitor. It's perfect when you just want to sit on a bench and read a book or do some people watching. On nice days you can find all sorts of live music too."
New York Habitat - 7.8
"Definitely in my top 3. Crust is perfectly crunchy, sauce is well-seasoned & cheese is melted from big chunks. Go with a friend and split the sicilian grandma, sicilian vodka and an artichoke slice."
Mbali - 8.2
"Perfect for a late night snack or a lunch (but be sure to get two rolls to get a filling meal)."
