Great food. Best falafel. And now it's open late everyday. I have been coming here for over 20 years. Been consistent ever since. Recently changed ownership. Crossing my fingers to have the same quality.

easily the best falafel i've had in months or years in LA - soooo perfect, freshly made, just delicious

The food Is Super fresh Ingredients. Simply packed perfectly. Stayed at proper temp. Delicious . Thank You

Been coming here since 1989. Best falafel sandwich in LA and the hot sauce is to die for Always good flavors and great service.

The absolute BEST gyro in Los Angeles. Truly. They can't be beat. Their prices are fair. And you always leave happy. The spot itself is easy to access, quint, with hard working staff. Get the gyro. So yummy (and healthy)

I really really wanted to give this place 5 stars, but I'm almost tempted to put 3. I live right down the street and have been wanting to try this place. Ordered on Uber eats for pickup. Said 5-15 minutes. I went in around 15 mins and the owner told me 5 more minutes, then as I walked away he told me a couple minutes. I love mom n pop places and even if service isn't the best they usually have great food. And ultimately he wasn't rude, but just not very friendly. But it felt like kind of a miss. For the food, it was solid, but not mind blowing. I will say the falafel is one of the best I've ever had. Great texture and flavor. Labneh was just okay. The one they sell at the Virginia Ave farmers market is so much better. Gyro meat was good. Hummus and babaganoush were good, but definitely had a lot better. Fries were really good. Tahini sauce was a no for me dawg. And the salad and pita bread were kind of sad. Salad boring, bread could be fresher. I might come back. But probably for just the falafel and fries.

Solid option in the area. I catered a small event using Hungry Pocket, getting items off of the wrap/sandwich and salad menus. The food was tasty and affordable. Not the most glamorous or best, but was exactly what we needed!

I came here for the falafel and boy, was it good. I was hungry and craving something on the lighter side as I waited for traffic to die down. I stumbled across this place on Yelp and so happy I did. This place is close to Santa Monica City College tucked away in a little strip mall. You can't miss it with its bright yellow exterior. The strip mall has some parking spots. When you get inside, it's nothing fancy... you definitely get that classic home style vibe. It has been around for over 50 years. There is some seating inside. The owner was super nice and helpful. I decided to order the classic falafel sandwich and it was so tasty. The falafel had perfect consistency and wasn't dry at all. At under $8, it's a steal of a deal for Santa Monica. I also got a medium side of tabbouleh for $5 that is so fresh and tasty. Overall, I recommend this place if you're looking for some good cheap eats. A Santa Monica steal!
