" So I went to Falafel Express just last week after hearing a friend rave about it. I specifically ordered their chicken shawarma, which I found to be spiced wonderfully. The homemade pita was a real surprise and paired perfectly with the meats. The serving was quite satisfying, and I felt it was worth every penny spent! I did have a small hiccup with my order taking longer than expected, but the staff was courteous enough to keep me informed of the progress. Overall, I would return simply for the quality of the food! " (*Curated Review*)

" This little gem is one of my new favorites! I dropped in while running errands and decided to try the kofta kebabs. They were juicy and paired beautifully with the fresh salad and homemade tahini dressing. I was also impressed by how well the staff handled the lunch rush; they were still polite and engaging even though the place was packed. The prices are clearly reasonable for the portion size, and I left feeling full and satisfied. Definitely a great find in Beaverton! " (*Curated Review*)

" Expectations met! I stumbled upon Falafel Express while exploring Beaverton and decided to try their falafel plate. It was authentic with fresh vegetables and generous portions. The staff were pleasant and accommodating, although they seemed to be juggling a heavy rush. Overall, the vibe is relaxed, perfect for a casual lunch. I recommend their shawafel for anyone who can’t decide between falafel and shawarma like I was! " (*Curated Review*)

" I am utterly taken back by how amazing Falafel Express is! Having studied Middle Eastern cuisine, I can say they are genuine in their approach. I had the chicken shawarma platter, and while it was very satisfying, my favorite was definitely the falafel. Each bite was wonderfully textured, with all the right spices, clearly made with care. The staff, albeit busy, greeted us with warm smiles. The atmosphere is informal and cozy, making it perfect for a friendly meal or a quick lunch. I will certainly recommend this place to anyone looking for authentic flavors. " (*Curated Review*)

" Honestly, I've been to many Mediterranean places, but Falafel Express has a charm of its own. The falafel wrap I tried was crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. The tahini sauce that came with it was heavenly. My dining experience was smooth and ideal for a casual outing, and I appreciated the friendly staff attentiveness. Although I could have had more of their fresh salad, I left satisfied and happy with what I had. Will definitely return soon to sample more of their menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" Last Saturday, I ventured to Falafel Express for something different for lunch. The falafel platter was recommended to me, and wow, did it live up to expectations! It was perfectly crispy and seasoned just right. I was happy to see they had fresh herbs in the salad too! The service was friendly, and they honored my special requests without hesitation. I will definitely return to explore more of their menu; I have a feeling everything will be as delightful as what I just had. " (*Curated Review*)

" Falafel Express is absolutely a must-try! I enjoyed every dish, especially the chicken shawarma platter. The flavors transported me right back to my travels! The servings were generous, allowing me to share with my friends. I couldn't give a perfect score because the seating felt a bit tight, especially during busy hours. If you can look past that, this place will not disappoint. Delicious and hearty meals await! " (*Curated Review*)
