⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I ordered two plates of falafels from Falafel City last night, and everything was absolutely perfect! The food was incredibly fresh and flavorful — hands down some of the best falafel I’ve had. I left a message in the Uber Eats food modification section with specific requests, and they followed it exactly. The attention to detail really impressed me. Even the hummus was rich and delicious. Thank you, Falafel City, for feeding me a perfect dinner. I truly enjoyed every bite!

Here on holiday from Australia. I had the chicken platter. So delicious, fresh & so so generous portions I couldn't finish it. My husband had the Philly ( gryo) wrap. These guys must be doing something right. Amazing. Thankyou thankyou thankyou. Lovely people. Do yourself a favour & eat there, you won't be disappointed. Russell & Joanne ( Australia)

Good food for a low price. Fast. Interior decoration is pretty good. Chill vibes. Overall, this is a great value at this price point. If you're in the area and want to grab some Mediterranean food, you can't go wrong coming here.

My job training occurred around the corner from here so I walked around to see what food options there were. The neighborhood is absolutely disgusting BUT this gem was worth it. I ordered the chicken plate and it looked amazing and taste even better and the price wasn’t draining my wallet. Definitely have to visit these guys again. The food is amazing!!!!

DELICIOUS!!!!! Five stars!! Service. Meat quality. Value. All were fantastic! Super fresh ingredients too. Do yourself a favor and call in your order- you will save money plus you’re supporting a small business! DOORDASH UBER EATS TAKE ALL THEIR MONEY. Everyone should order directly from these types of restaurants - they also do night time delivery!

Don’t be fooled by the (terrible) neighborhood. Very good platters, hummus and tahini. For SF, it was a relatively good value. I would go back again!

Went here, because my husband is Arab, and fasting. And the people there were so dang nice! They brought him dates and a special drink and extra food, to help celebrate Ramadan. They were so kind. I highly recommend. The food was amazing also.

We were looking for a good falafel in the Union Square area and found this place by reading some reviews. I have to say that going there at 8 pm on a Sunday evening was a bit scary. The area doesn't feel so safe. However I am so happy we did it. They have the best falafel I ever had. It's sized right and the portion for the side falafel is more than fair. Great taste and texture. We also had the gyros plate and it was pretty good with great hummus! I totally recommend this place!

This place is bussin'. They've shortened their menu recently but I dont necessarily think that's bad. Their food is mostly authentic and the quality is always good. They are halal and even have a space for customers to offer salaat.

I’ve ordered here so much, to the point where I received a credit on door dash. I haven’t had any issues until this past weekend. I ordered from here twice after a few late nights out but I became so sick after ordering this time. I suffered from an awful case of food poisoning for three days!! I probably won’t order here again because I do not want to go through that ever. But the food does taste good, just not agreeable with my stomach unfortunately. With so many Greek options in sf, I’m prob going to have to retire this place.
