The menu photos were misleading-the meal looked like it included fries, but fries had to be ordered separately. The fries were not fresh, & the falafel tasted more like spices than actual falafel. The cashier was friendly & polite, but the staff member handing out the food was unfriendly & seemed uninterested. Overall, it was not what I expected.

I have been thinking about the Falafel Plate for years. Please open up a location downtown Montréal! Love the staff & vibe as well.

Shanny was so welcoming & had such great energy. It was our first time there, & we felt comfortable right away. She helped us choose, & we have zero regrets everything was really good. I definitely recommend this place & will come back without hesitation.

I went a few months ago.. the lady behind the counter was picking her nose, & then was serving food.

I had ordered my sandwich before hand, & the food was not good. The place is not clean, the food was dry. I dont recommend

Always superb & fresh. A great selection of vegetarian meats. So many fresh salads to choose from too & all excellent. Knowledgeable about gluten free which is so reassuring. The staff & owner always make everyone feel welcome & seen.

I've had this place a few times & I think it's starting to grow on more each time... Not sure if it's the best as I have never been much of a Falafel prison to begin with..but'm beginning to eat it more regularly, & as I try other places, it seems to stack up very well.
