Reviews describe Falafel Yoni as consistently fresh and flavorful, with crispy outside and soft inside falafel, creamy hummus, and generously filled pitas that many call the best falafel in Montreal, along with delicious sabich and a strong homemade feel from a simple, well priced menu. Many note a warm, efficient service and a friendly, welcoming vibe, with dine in and takeout both praised for reliability and good portions. Some items receive mixed feedback, such as zaatar fries that don’t always impress, pita that can be cold or not warm enough, and occasional wait times; there are also hygiene caveats mentioned at one location regarding gloves and hair, and a note about the restaurant adding meat options that divided vegetarians, though meatless choices remain highly regarded. Overall the reviews converge on high quality, generous servings, fresh ingredients, and a memorable experience that keeps customers returning and recommending Falafel Yoni for a reliable, satisfying falafel fix.
Fresh & authentic falafel, amazing creamy hoummus & Shnitzel pita was very tasty. I was curious about the zaatar fries & didn't find it that great(might be also that the fries were not fresh?) I prefer zaatar on pita which they had & it was good.
Since moving to Verdun, we've become regulars at Falafel Yoni. When my family visited recently late summer, my six-year-old nephew, a very picky eater, was curious about the food. We bought him a few falafel balls & told him they were'crunchy like fries.' He took one bite, declared it one of the best things he'd ever eaten, & devoured 9 more. Now, every time he calls, he insists we stop at Falafel Yoni… so definitely a must-have!
If you are looking for a snack or a meal, you have to check this place out. The food is incredibly delicious, healthy & fresh. It was the best felafel I've had. The personnel are friendly & courteous. I will go back soon. Try out their dessert, too.
For a $25 meal, I usually expect it to knock it out of the park. Did the pita chicken schnitzel deliver? Unfortunately, not. While the storefront & genuinely friendly service helped redeem the experience, the food itself came off as uninspired & simply
inauthentic.

It had been a while since I last visited this spot, my last time was in Mile End, & I remembered loving their pitas. But on this hot summer day, my friend & I were craving something lighter, so we went for a salad… & let me tell you, it did not disappoint.
The portion was huge, definitely one to share. Shout-out to the employee who recommended we split it, because we were about to order one each! The veggies were incredibly fresh, the falafels perfectly crisp, & the sauce? To die for.
The whole team was super friendly & welcoming. Special shout-out to Nathan (aka Nate) who had such a great vibe, filled our water bottles, & gave us amazing service.
I'll absolutely be coming back, for both that salad & the good energy!
I love stopping by this place on the way home from work. The food menu is super simple but down well. Staff is always friendly & they have surprisingly good music. The spicy fallafel is spicy while not being overwhelming spicy & the drink selection has both soda & no sugary options.
Amazing service from Quiana! The food is always fresh & super tasty. The sandwiches are well stacked & the hummus is so smooth & flavorful. The fries are full of crispies (that's a good thing) & the falafel machine is the coolest thing to watch working. Now. Let's talk about the cucumber salad. Never stop making it. It's the bomb! Fresh & crunchy. Keep up the good work!
I come to Verdun every few weeks & every time I come I have to go to falafel yoni. The falafel & sabich are unparalleled & the staff are always friendly! The fries are not the greatest, I'd skip them tbh. They come in too big a bag & often are soggy. When I get them I end up throwing half the bag out. Everything else about falafel yoni is unbeatable though
