Jay LOctober 7, 2013Forget the falafel, baba ghanoush is so much more flavorful, saucy, eggplant goodness. This sandwich is a hot mess, you can't eat it delicately at all.
Lauren AlexaSeptember 29, 2016Tiny place with basically no seating but the food is great! Go for the falafel of course!
msMarch 11, 2015Cheap but perfect falafel. The service is great too! Mamoun's is love, Mamoun's is life
The best falafel sandwich I've ever had (for real), and it's only $2.50! Open really late too.
Best chicken and falafel sandwiches in the village. Be careful with the hot sauce...it's killer!
The Corcoran GroupJuly 24, 2013THE place to get falafel to go. The hot sauce is very spicy, so beware!
steve BEMay 28, 2013It's 2013. Pitas come mixed these days; you can have your babaghanouj and hummus, too ...in the same sandwich!!- get two sides - falafel and hummus - and you'll be well-fed for less than $6
Ari SatlinJuly 6, 2013Healthies, Best tasting quality Veggie Falafel ever. Slamming Lamb pita shwarma. like 4$. Everyones a winner.
Mike MillerSeptember 28, 2022Ordered meat combo plate with shawarma & there was no meat! I paid additional cost to add meat & waited after customers who ordered after me. I paid in cash & live a subway ride away.
I got the falafel; baba-ganouj; shawarma; and shish kabob. All were amazing.
N. S.January 25, 2018Another great cheap eat. Basic and delicious falafel. The hot sauce is awesome.
Daan V.October 27, 2011Great falafel for just 2.50. Be sure to be careful with the spice sauce or enjoy the notoriously famous 'Mamoun's After party'.
Ricardo DinizMarch 13, 2013At this place I ate the most delicious hummus in my life. Try it with the good ol' falafel sandwich.- Evva KraikulJuly 20, 2013Delicious falafels at affordable prices - what more could you ask for? Note, this place is cash only!
Whether your looking for a quick snack or bombed from a late night of drinking & dancing stop by Mamouds. You'll feel like a million bucks within minutes. I go for the falafel shawarma mix.
soniaOctober 30, 2014Vegetarians: falafel with hummus ... go easy on the hot sauce, it's actually spicy
Tamer BekirAugust 16, 2014It's delicious. Try anything on the menu. Just buy it. You'll be happy. Trust me.
Moe BenJuly 19, 2017Yum, yum. My treat of the week. I must have shawarma sandwich after work every Saturday. Something about that hot sauce:)
I don't care how much better you think your local falafel guy is, this is the most famous falafel place in the city. Nothing comes close to the consistency of a delicious Mamoun's Falafel anywhere!
CompassJuly 23, 2013Dive face first into the falafel and shwarma sandwiches at this grab-and-go Village favorite.
Iren KrugliakovaDecember 6, 2013Best falafel ever, but don't try red souse from a big bottle, it burns your guts!)
One of the best falafel's at the cheapest price. Love the hot sauce too, but can be crazy hot at times.
Michael G.October 6, 2019Falafel sandwich is outstanding. Get two and you’ll be full. They cater, who knew?!
Great cheap meal. Get the falafel sandwich with hummus
Jason BeckerApril 16, 2012best falafel sandwich in the city by far. both east and west locations are great!
Chris DursoAugust 21, 2017Lives up to the hype. Falafel and shawarma don't get much better, anywhere in the city.- Go to the Mamouns on St. marks place. This one is always stingy on the meat and white sauce
Joy DingNovember 8, 2012omnomnomnom get the baba ghanoush then put it inside your falafel sandwich. it is bombdelicious
Ridiculously cheap falafel for the quality. Drop by if you're in the neighborhood and looking for a cheap, tasty, and relatively filling snack.

"get the falafel salad as an option vs the pita or wrap"
TheKatalist - 8.4
"The falafel is delightfully crunchy and they use a really delicious olive oil on top of the hummus which is also a great consistency. If you like beets, also try the beet and apple salad with feta!"

"Sneaky great SoHo smoothie spot for an incredibly affordable $5.50. Strawberry, raspberry, mint was tasty and refreshing."
