ordered from here for a group of 12. two shawarmas, two lamb shishkabob, three lg falafel plates, lg combo salad and extra pita. hands down best falafel, everything was perfect. gonna be hard to beat.
Bobby NooromidApril 29, 2013Whether you're ordering an entree, sandwich, side or something else, note that their portions are pretty generous. Also, despite their name, you may want to get a side of hummus to add to your meal.
Alex RainertJune 27, 2012Don't sleep on their Mallaweh sandwiches. The dough is unique & crazy delicious. I recommend the chicken schnitz one but you can go your own way. Bonus: it's burrito-shaped!
AlexandraJuly 21, 2013One of the cheapest items is the Bob Marley sandwich on the separate chef sandwich menu. It has falafel, hummus, tahini + EVERY salad on the menu stuffed into a pita. Delicious and cheap.
Elie BleierJuly 6, 2014Perfect for a quick lunch. Authentic and cheap Israeli food. Try a health sandwich (sabich) or a hummus plate. Note to owners: please serve extra tehina/amba/etc for free!
awesome schwarma platter that can easily be shared by 2 people. This place has gotten a lot better recently. fairly authentic israeli food
Stefanie DAugust 22, 2017Freshly made vegetarian friendly, all round goodness. And, did anyone mention, a quiet sun lit spot in the middle of Manhattan madness?
J CrowleyMay 16, 2012I got the "original" sandwich. Hard boiled eggs and veggies. Was skeptical I'd miss chicken or lamb. No way. Im super satisfied. Not too heavy. Outside wrap is thick and fluffy. Yum.
The $5 Falafel Sandwich is my best value workday lunch. Go for the spicy version, it isn't that spicy really, just has more taste.
Omer ZachApril 24, 2015Yemenite/Israeli food. Ask for schug (spicy sauce) and fries in your big super-greasy melawach sandwich.
Jeffrey GlueckDecember 16, 2015Go with the John Lennon their most popular sandwich, schwarma and falafel and hummus in one
Yisroel SolomonJune 4, 2017Kosher... here is the deal. They don't have a kashrut but from what I understand all the food (meat, chicken) is kosher. With that said, the food here is very good.
Kristin KJuly 24, 2012Only great things have come from putting fries in a falafel sandwich. Try this delicious (and suuuper healthy!) combination, I dare you
EricSeptember 15, 2011Falafel sandwhich with egg, for $6 it's one of my favortie things in the city. Lots of other great stuff on the menu as well.
William HubaApril 1, 2015The regular menu might be more traditional, but the chef sandwich menu is the best.
Current obsession: Flavorful burger in a fluffy pita, cool, fresh tabouli salad and a nicely smokey babbaganosh. Who knew?
Darren LachtmanMarch 20, 2012Jerusalem mixed grill or schwarma and for veggie fans the $5 falafel sand...great fries too
Lafayette 148 New YorkNovember 29, 2011We love the flavor of the Falafel Sandwiches at Hoomoos Asli – our go-to lunch spot that gets us through market week.
NearSay NYCJuly 22, 2011N-Sider foodie fav: Their Pita With Za'atar is amazing, and Chicken Shish Kabob is to die for.
Lael SturmJuly 22, 2011Best Israeli food in a town full of great Israeli food. Shwarma, humus, spicy, yes.- Mary had a little lamb. It's now a sandwich with the same name. Sorry lamb.
Spicy falafel sandwich in a whole wheat pita. $5. Yup.
Try the Schwarma sandwich. Ask them for extra spicy if you want spicy!
Omar QariJune 6, 2012Careful - easy to over order and end up with a $20 bag of grub - leave the gun, take the sandwich
The health sandwich is a great deal. Eggplant, salad, hummus, an egg. So tasty.
Neil BaptistaJune 12, 2010Actually very authentic, delicious Falafel for a 5 spot. Friendly staff as well. N*
BoweryBoogieFebruary 13, 2011Definitely order the mushrooms and onions hoomoos. You won't be disappointed.
Ryan CharlesJanuary 6, 2012I still have no idea what to do here. Do you order at the front then sit down? Do you tell someone you're sitting down? Been here six times... no clue.
Samuel HowardJune 12, 2016Don't expect any Feta cheese... no dairy products here though no formal Kosher certification in evidence.
Spicy Health Sandwich is the way to go - sauteed eggplant, etc...
