" Had a lovely dinner with friends at Cairo Falafel. The kofta was well-seasoned and grilled to perfection. One downside was the atmosphere; it felt a bit cramped and could use more decor. Overall, a solid option for authentic Middle Eastern food, and I’ll be back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently discovered Cairo Falafel and I'm thrilled with my experience! The falafel was crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside, just like it should be. The garlic sauce was fantastic as well, and I loved the variety of dips available. The owner greeted us warmly, making us feel at home. Definitely coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I'd been looking for a halal place in town and stumbled upon Cairo Falafel. The chicken shawarma I had tasted fresh, and the portion was decent. The sweet tea paired nicely with the food. Although the place itself could use some sprucing up, the food made up for it. " (*Curated Review*)

" Cairo Falafel is a hit or miss for me. Some days I relish the rich flavors, and other times, it seems bland. I appreciate their vegan options, and the service is usually friendly. It's a convenient option for middle eastern food, but room for improvement exists. " (*Curated Review*)

" Don't count on a swift meal at Cairo Falafel. While the food is authentic and fresh, the wait can be quite long during peak hours. I had the chicken shawarma and it was fantastic, but I just wish they could work on their efficiency in serving it. " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't say enough good things about Cairo Falafel. The food is fresh, flavorful, and authentically Middle Eastern! The best falafel I've had in the area. The staff was also welcoming and attentive. It’s a bit on the pricier side, but worth every penny! " (*Curated Review*)

" Cairo Falafel is good, but I noticed some inconsistency in the portions. Sometimes they give generous servings, while other times it feels a bit sparse. Service is friendly, and food is typically delicious. Would love to see more consistency overall! " (*Curated Review*)
