    Great falafel. Cooked to perfection. Love that you can do your own toppings. The eggplant is amazing and the garlic cream. Definitely only order one fries between two. Grab a table when you can.

    Pro tip: smash your sandwich, then open it up so you have room for toppings. Cole slaw is a must.

    Grab one of the couple dozen seats in this bare-bones shop for a satisfying lunch, dinner, or late-night snack in the club-happy neighborhood of Adams Morgan. Read more

    Try the Falafel Sandwich - They give you falafel and a pita and you get to load it up with as much hummus, tahini, and other assorted toppings as you want.

    The service and food are always great! The falafels and fries are made fresh each time you order, and all the toppings are delicious.

    Falafels here are the best I've EVER had. And I've eaten my fair share. Super crowded. But that means it's good. Next time I won't order fries. Falafel is enough. Can't wait to go back.

    Awesome falafel...Toppings galore... If you get fries, try mixing the curry ketchup with a bit of the Dutch mayo for dipping sauce. NOM

    Sandwiches can be a bit difficult to handle, so grab a bowl if you're worried about being messy. Be adventurous with the toppings, they're all worth it.

    Awesome late night spot in AdMo! Make sure you get those toppings to the bottom of your pita so you don't end up with a dry second half of your falafel!

    Falafels are perfectly prepared. Tahini, garlic sauce and tzatziki, sides and accompaniments are tasty and quick.

    Takes you back to Amsterdam for sure! Abundance of garnishes. Go for the beeteoot and chillies. Belgian style fries seal the deal.

    Best falafel. I used to have the ones at La Shish in Dearborn, MI. These are just as good in a different way. Great fries too.

    Crush the falafel balls and layer the toppings on flat. That way you get a bite of all the toppings in each bite.

    The simple falafel is experiencing a heyday, and this tiny shop is a clear indication why. Experiment with toppings: turmeric-tinged cabbage and jalapeño-fueled herb sauce are delicious options.

    The best Falafels I've ever had! The regular one is for someone that is REALLY hungry, if you're not try the small one instead.

    This place has the best Falfel, my favorite style is to smash your balls, then jam as much humus and tzatziki in it as possible, load on the fried onions, chick peas, tomatoes and Dutch mayo!

    Much better than jumbo slice. The small is always big enough for me; the large is huge.

    Be sure to load up on extra tahini sauce. This place is ridiculously good. I find myself randomly ending up here, even when my business is many miles away. So good.

    Skip the fries, they're not THAT good and pay attention to your fab falafel: 2 hands at all times (lose a ball on the floor- pick it up. No one cares and it keeps the A/M rat situation at bay)
