Review Summary

Overall, reviews describe Falafel Yoni as offering exceptionally fresh and flavorful falafel with a crispy exterior and a soft interior, generous portions, and well balanced toppings like hummus, pickles, red cabbage and fresh vegetables, with many noting that the sabich and other offerings are equally tasty. The vibe is consistently warm with friendly, accommodating staff and quick, attentive service, and prices are seen as fair for the quality and quantity. Dine in and takeout are both praised, and the restaurant earns repeat visits from locals who appreciate the homemade feel and reliable freshness. A few comments mention occasional inconsistencies such as pita or bread temperature, longer wait times during busy periods, or concerns about food prep hygiene or meat options for vegetarians, but the overall impression is that Falafel Yoni serves some of the best falafel in town and remains a favorite for many.View restaurant profile
