" I just stopped by for a quick snack during my lunch break. The falafel was okay, but a bit too bland for my taste. The service was decent, but I felt a bit rushed. It also seemed a little cramped inside. I wouldn’t say it’s bad, but it didn’t blow me away. " (*Curated Review*)

" A must-visit for anyone craving authentic Middle Eastern food! The falafel was deliciously crispy, and the shawarma was perfectly seasoned. The portions are generous for the price, and the owner's hospitality is unparalleled. It feels so homey and welcoming; I'll definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" The ownership here makes a big difference. You can tell Mustafa puts his heart into the food, and it shines through the flavors. The lamb wrap was delectable! I do wish they expanded their menu options a bit more, but overall, a delightful experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" Falafel Café quickly became my favorite place for Middle Eastern food! The lamb platter I had was amazing – so much flavor! The rice was a bit mushy for my taste, but the rest made up for it. The owner, Mustafa, is welcoming and makes you feel right at home. I can't wait to come back and try more dishes. " (*Curated Review*)

" There are lots of great reviews about the shawarma here, and I can see why! The chicken shawarma was full of flavor, and the toppings were fresh. I was impressed by the portion size for the price. The only downside was the wait, as it took longer than expected, but worth it in the end. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a fantastic little gem! I popped in for a quick bite and ordered the falafel platter. It arrived quickly, and I was amazed by the generous portions! The falafel was freshly made and had an incredible texture. The salad was crisp and refreshing, and the owner even offered me a complimentary dessert after I finished my meal. I'll definitely be back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was on a quest for good falafel, and this place delivered! The falafels are crunchy outside and fluffy inside, just the way I love them. The hummus is homemade and creamy, paired perfectly with the warm pita. The atmosphere is casual but inviting. The owner’s hospitality made the experience even more enjoyable. I plan to return soon!
