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.
I'm a frequent customer at Falafel Yoni & cannot recommend it enough - the food is delicious & the customer service is excellent. Everyone who works here is so welcoming! They have a great reputation for a reason.
De loin les meilleurs falafels que j'ai mangé ! J'ai tout adoré de mon expérience !!! Le service était impeccable, je me suis sentie accueillie avant même d'entrer dans le restaurant. Ma commande était prête rapidement, & mon sandwich n'aurait pas pu être plus frais. Énormes portions pour le prix ! En étant végétarienne depuis 10 ans, j'étais un peu inquiète de voir que le restaurant commençait à vendre des sandwichs au poulet, mais j'ai vu qu'ils utilisent une friteuse différente pour le cuire, donc pas de contamination croisée ! Je recommande fortement ce restaurant 👏🏼 J'y retournerai très prochainement !!!
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!
Excellent repas, meilleur falafel au monde! Les frites zahar sont croquantes & délicieuses super ambiance & service rapide, nous sommes accuieillis & guidés à travers le menus, je recommande sans hésitation, vaut le déplacement
Ce petit établissement sert un délicieux sandwich falafel avec du pain fait maison. Je recommande également les pommes de terre au zaatar & les petites boules de chocolat. Une cuisine savoureuse à un prix abordable !
The falafel sandwiches are very tasty, & do not follow the standard Lebanese recipe yet comes out really well. I highly recommend trying them out. The staff was efficient but seemed overworked both times I went there. The only negative is the actual restaurant which needs a deep cleaning & much better aeration'cause it's very stuffy in summer.

I have always been a huge falafel yoni fan & have brought people to this unique spot in Montreal! This was my first time visiting the Verdun location, we ordered 3 demi falafel pitas & took our bites. The bread was extremely cold, like it had just been taken out of the freezer & barely defrosted. The filling of the falafel & sauces were really good, the product that I recommend to people when they visit Montreal. This taste was overshadowed by the cold bread which remained cold with the hot filling inside.
This is a small place, about 400 meters from metro De l'Église. It's less than half of the size of the St Viateur Falafel Yoni. Imagine a middle Eastern falafel style. The demi pita is recommended, as they fill it generously. The service is quick & efficient. You'll be asked spicy or regular & here or to go. Open daily 11 to 9.
