" An unpretentious gem, Falafel Stop has my heart! Their falafels are packed full of flavor and made fresh every day, bringing a taste of the Mediterranean to the Bay Area. I thoroughly enjoyed trying their chicken shawarma plate, though the service on that day felt less attentive. Even though it was busy, the wait was a bit longer than usual. Still, I would give this place a solid 4 stars for quality! " (*Curated Review*)

" Great food and fun atmosphere at this lovely restaurant! I went for the chicken shwarma plate, it was loaded with fresh ingredients. Local favorites, like their pita and tahini, made everything better! Service was alright but could use some streamlining, as I found it a bit confusing navigating through the counter. Nonetheless, it is well worth the visit, and I’d rate it a solid 4 stars overall for my experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're looking for authentic Mediterranean fare in a fun setting, look no further than Falafel Stop! I had their Jerusalem mix platter and it was fantastic. Huge portions, fresh ingredients, and the flavors were all there. The staff was friendly and welcoming, although the line was long, and I had to wait a little while for my meal. It was busy, but I can see why! Highly recommend trying it out. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely noteworthy! The falafel I had during my visit to Falafel Stop was hands down the best I've tasted! The texture was spot on, and the seasoning was perfectly balanced. I opted for the hummus plate, which came with a side of fresh veggies that added to the experience. The restaurant itself had a very welcoming atmosphere, making it a fantastic spot to unwind. The service can be slow at times, but the taste of the food definitely makes up for it! My overall rating is 4.8. " (*Curated Review*)

" Falafel Stop is everything I hoped it would be and more! Their chicken shawarma is phenomenal - juicy, packed with flavor, and the accompanying salad is fresh and crisp. The ordering system can be a bit tricky, especially on a busy day, but the staff is friendly and willing to help. The atmosphere is casual yet lively, making it a perfect stop for a quick bite or a longer meal with friends. I genuinely enjoyed my time there and give it a glowing 5-star rating!

" I had high expectations going into Falafel Stop after hearing all the hype, but I have to say, it lived up to every word! The shawarma was succulent, and I appreciated how fresh the ingredients were in my salad. The environment had a laid-back vibe which is ideal for a casual meal. I felt the service could have been slightly more efficient, as I waited quite a while for my food, but I can see why it’s popular with fresh dishes coming out! Overall, I’m very satisfied and would definitely return, scoring it a solid 4 out of 5. " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't recommend Falafel Stop enough! The falafels are by far the best I have had. They’re always fresh, crispy on the outside and moist inside - just how it should be! I ordered a sabich with the eggplant and hummus; it was delightful and bursting with flavors. The ambiance is cheerful and lively, which adds to the overall experience. The only downside was that it was a bit crowded when I went, but that’s a good sign of its popularity! Flawless service makes this place a must-visit for anyone seeking authentic Mediterranean food. My experience here is absolutely a 5-star. " (*Curated Review*)
