Not bad but room for improvement

I almost never give a fully vegan restaurant less than five stars, And I’m not going to start here. But… the falafel was petrified and overcooked. It was actually a wonderful taste but they shouldn’t overcook the falafel. The cabbage salad was delectable along with the fries and the hummus. The pita bread was served nice and warm, lightly toasted. There was a wonderful sauce draped over the falafel, like a tzaziki sauce. It’s basically street food without the street, tiny little place, no air conditioning because it’s pretty much open to the street. They should expand their beverage selections besides soda and water. Very casual and quick. Also really cheap

Tout petit restaurant avec de bons produits.

Amazing light and fresh fare

My partner and I stopped here on our way back from Tulum to Cancun. We were pleasantly surprised by the food. I can’t eat raw onions and there were none in the Plates we got. It was healthy, light, and fresh. The ambience was quaint and cozy! The person serving us was very friendly too! Would recommend.

Pros: Vegan, Fresh, No raw onions

Cons: Hot (although that’s to be expected in the city!)

Cheap, fast and basic

The food was good but very basic, nothing special.
Cheap and fast
I would recommend it if you want to eat something fast, not too expensive and good.

Fair price, lacking taste

The prices for the falafel and hummus are very reasonable and it is tasty, but I ate there twice and the flavors left something to be desired. Found it to be generally bland.

Pros: Affordable, Conveniently located

Cons: Could use more spice

Delicious, fast and fairly priced!

Loved the experience! Menu is easy to choose from, and we got our order very quickly! The ingredients were fresh, and their hummus is all made from scratch. Highly recommended 👍🏻✨

Best falafel, so fresh and cheap

Amazing pita bread, they litterally fry the falafel when you order, the little hummus sauce and their green fresh almost not spicy sauce are amazing.
50mxn pesos for a small pita (decent size) 80mxn for a big one and 2/120mxn! (to compare you usually get 100-300mxn plates anywhere and might even leave hungry *in the center of playa).
Everything seems actually vegan.
Menu is short and simple.
Wifi and washroom.

Falafel al paso. Muy rico y muy buenos precios.

Me alegré mucho de encontrar nuevamente Falafel Nessya en Playa del Carmen este agosto, en su nueva ubicación.
El falafel es muy rico, simple y fresco.
Tienen también hummus y pequeñas ensaladas picantes.
Comida al paso, muy amables y excelentes precios. Volveré!

Amazing Flavors. Great Prices. All freshly cooked

Omg am I so happy to stumble across this place!!! The food is soooo good!!! And everything is homemade by the guy himself. You can taste the freshness and quality in the food. And the price cannot be beaten. I ordered the falafel pita. Which was more than enough. I was seriously stuffed by the end of it. This is super packed and filled. Tons of hummus and who knows how many falafels. Not to mention the Free salad bar!! definitely try the green and red salsa and fried pita chips. Holy cow!!! I cannot believe how good the food is here.

Pros: Inexpensive, Homemade and Fresh, Big portions

Cons: None!

Kickass falafels!!

Tried one of their pita falafels and it was sooo good! Really soft and crunchy falafels with vegan dressing and lots of different toppings to top your falafels. The staff was really friendly and cheap prices compared to Playa. Will go here again!!

Pros: Different topping , Inexpensive , Bomb falafels
