" I usually enjoy Middle Eastern cuisine, but my recent visit to North Avenue Falafel was disappointing. The food lacked the depth I expect in the flavors, especially the shawarma, which felt a bit bland and overcooked. The portions were decent, but the service was quite slow, which made my experience even less enjoyable. I hope my next visit offers a more authentic taste of the cuisine I love! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’m always on the hunt for great shawarma, and let me tell you, North Avenue Falafel does not disappoint! It's a cozy location, perfect for lunch breaks. The chicken was juicy, and the spices were vibrant, giving me that authentic taste I love. I also enjoyed their lentil soup; it was rich and hearty. I will be returning soon for another bite! " (*Curated Review*)

" I just had a meal at North Avenue Falafel, and I have mixed feelings. The falafel was good, but the rest of my meal left me wanting. The chicken shawarma was dry, which was disappointing because I really expected better based on other reviews. The service was friendly, but overall, it wasn’t what I’d hoped for. " (*Curated Review*)

" North Avenue Falafel has quickly become my go-to for Mediterranean food. On my last visit, I ordered the kafta kabob sandwich, and it was absolutely delicious. The meat was juicy, and the flavors were well balanced. My friend tried the falafel, and we both agreed it was among the best we've tasted. The owner was incredibly welcoming, and I love how clean the restaurant is. I often do takeout, and the presentation has always impressed me. My only complaint is sometimes the wait can be a bit long, but it's worth it for the quality. " (*Curated Review*)

" I found North Avenue Falafel to be quite charming! I loved their mezze platter, it offered a great variety of dips and fresh vegetables. The highlight, of course, was the falafel, which was crispy without being greasy. I also appreciated the friendly staff who made the experience even better. The only downside was that my wraps weren't quite as warm as I hoped, but they were still delicious. Overall, a solid choice for anyone craving Mediterranean flavors! " (*Curated Review*)

" North Avenue Falafel is amazing! I'm a huge lover of Mediterranean food, and the flavors here are spot on. The falafel is fried to golden perfection, and the garlic sauce adds a delicious kick. The restaurant is clean, and the staff is always pleasant. I recommend the combination platter for a little bit of everything. I will definitely be coming back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the pleasure of dining at North Avenue Falafel recently, and I must say, it was a delightful experience! The chicken shawarma was juicy and full of flavor, served with warm pita that practically melts in your mouth. Their baba ghanoush has the perfect smoky flavor. It's evident that this place takes pride in offering authentic Middle Eastern food. The service was exceptional—friendly and attentive without being intrusive. You can feel the passion for quality food in every bite. I can't wait to return and try more dishes! " (*Curated Review*)
