Fun fusion food

There was some fun looking stuff on the menu here with some fun fusion ideas. I went for a bit of classic Korean with the corn dog and some fusion with kimchi hummus.

The corn dog was fun. Half is filled with a mozzarella-esque cheese and the other half has a sausage in it. The fillings were tasty, the bread coating was quite light and it had a good crispy outer. The sauce on top gave a bit of extra flavour. It is also partially dipped in sugar for a bit of sweetness. I really enjoyed but it may not be for everybody.

The kimchi hummus was also very good. The hummus had a little bit of texture and wasn't perfectly smooth which is how I like my hummus. It tasted good but I always think hummus can have more seasoning, I may be overseasoning the stuff I make at home! The kimchi is a good addition, it's not your typical napa cabbage kimchi and I wasn't exactly sure what vegetable it was. It had a good bit of bite and crunch to it but wasn't very spicy. The crispy tortilla served with it was great for scooping everything up.

There was some fun looking other stuff on the menu and I'd have liked to have tried the falafel and Tteokbokki skewer. Maybe another time.

It's a small place and looks geared to takeaways orders. There were about 10-12 seats so just keep that in mind when visiting.

Super original fusion cuisine

One of my fav places in the city. The Lebanese-Korean fusion feels curious, almost uncanny at first, but the results are just sublime. These fried mushrooms are to die for, the corn dog is EPIC and the sauces are memorable! A must-try whenever you're in Paris!

Accueil très chaleureux et plats variés et delicieux

Très bon accueil : la serveuse nous fait goûter un plat, puis nous explique tous les types de plats.
Choix varié, possibilité de demander non piquant pour certains plats marqués comme épicés.

Interesting, not amazing

Honestly, if I had to guess I’d say their other options are better, but I got their vegan korean chicken bowl after the worker offered me a sample. Very little seating, but it was pretty quiet at 8pm so I was able to grab a spot.

My chicken bowl was okay, the whole time I was a little confused as to what I was eating. The fried mushroom chicken was for sure yummy and well-done, but there was SO MUCH of it…then the rest of the bowl was like a tiny serving of noodles (to me, seemed like angel hair pasta lol), a few leafy greens, and some tomato/onion. Again, it was definitely not bad, but I was just so confused, and wishing there was less chicken and more other stuff (this coming from a guy who LOVES his vegan meat substitutes)

I’m definitely more of a traditional falafel guy, but I was really drawn in by the vegan chicken sample. I probably won’t go back, but if I did, I would rather pick some other option. Overall, pretty good value for the money, but the bowl was 75% fried mushroom chicken and 25% other paltry offerings. Hence, can’t really rate it above average…

Pros: Cool concept, Well-done vegan korean “chicken”

Cons: A little salty and oily, The stuff besides the chicken in the bowl was weir

Les falafels les plus gangsters de la ville

C'était tellement trop bon que j'ai oublié de prendre la photo avant de commencer mon plat 🥴🥴
Les piques-assiettes étaient de la partie 🍴
Super concept, hâte de tester les autres bols

Pros: Les serveurs qui expliquent le menu, Le "poulet" très croustillant à base de champignon, Le pique-assiette très bogoss

Cons: Le pique-assiette très féroce

Innovative fusion cuisine

We got the kimchi bowl and the chicken bowl (unfortunately forgot the names), both were really good. I like that they are doing something different, and korean and lebanese is a very interesting and innovative combination. Staff was very friendly.

Super cuisine fusion...

Mélanger la cuisine coréenne avec la libanaise, il fallait oser mais le résultat est juste incroyable. Le houmous au kimchi est exceptionnel et le falafel bowl un délice. Les serveuses sont tout simplement adorables. Super rapport qualité-prix…

favorite restaurant ever

gangnam falafel got me THROUGH my first year of uni, as it was right outside of my apartment; and was extremely well suited to gluten free allergies.
(they once even made me a special meal!)
i've quick friends with the members of the staff, who all are SO nice and personable, especially the owner. (love you lily!)
best experience i've ever had a dining establishment. love it there!

Disappointed (too oily/fat, not fresh)

I was super disappointed by GangNam Falafel (though commonly enthusiastic about Parisian veg restaurants). The food is way too oily/fat, not fresh (spices, herbs, lemon juice), it basically lacks flavour. I wouldn't recommend (and I am sorry to tell it as the reviews look quite positive). If you are looking for some fat and good vegan food, go to Theory (vegan restaurant close to GangNam).

Bonne adresse, je recommande

Gangnam Falafel propose un concept original de cuisine fusion, street-food coréene. La proposition a le mérite d'être créative. Les plats sont copieux et délicieux. Le manque de place en salle fait que l'on se retrouve rapidement au coude à coude avec les autres clients, ce qui peut vite être dérangeant. Mention spéciale à leur fameux corn-dog végane, véritable pain elfique alliant sucré-salé avec une subtilité assez admirable.

Pros: Le corn-dog vegan, une véritable masterclass, Leur simili de poulet à base de champignons frits, Tables équipées en couverts et serviettes

Cons: Les prix rédhibitoires , Personnel rapidement débordé, Manque de place en salle

Delicious Fusion

At first this fusion of Lebanese and Korean cuisines sounded strange but after trying the falafel I am hooked. The portions are huge and the flavour combination incredible. The proprietors are very friendly and explain everything. Also try the fried mushroom. My new go-to place for falafel.

Worth a visit

We really enjoyed the food here and the staff talked us through everything as soon as we arrived.

We tried the mushroom and chicken boxes and the falafel wrap. The boxes were very garlic heavy (a bit too much for me) but otherwise were nicely flavoured. Good portions sizes. The falafel was a great wrap to take away.

Our favourite was the fried tortilla wrap slices with hummus and kimchi tip. Greasy in a good way and really flavourful. We went back the next day to order it again!

They have seating in a separate unit a few doors down too. Worth a visit!

Pros: Friendly staff, Very fair prices , Good portions

Cons: Very garlic heavy on the chicken/ mushroom

Quelle surprise !

Champignon bowl pleinement validé ! Très bon mélange, savoureux sans estomaquer, contrasté mais harmonieux. Pris à emporter, avec un léger temps d'attente agréablement passé avec les autres client.es et l'équipe de ce petit lieu fort sympathique.

Pros: Très très bon, Équipe accueillante et sympathique, Bonne ambiance

Great food

Was delicious and the staff was super kind. We got to taste beforehand and a full explanation of the menu.

The only con I see is the food portion is a bit too small for my taste.

Pros: Great flavor, Very nice staff

Cons: Slightly too small portions

Fabulous!

Flavorful and fresh. The mushroom bowl with fresh greens, quinoa and spices was fantastic. The plantain falafel was possibly the best I’ve had.
Staff was friendly and welcoming.

Pros: Flavors, Variety, Friendly staff

You must be crazy not to stop by!

a year later and this is still the weirdest but best and memorable fushion I’ve experienced.
We were in Paris, far away of this location but was so drawn to this concept. And I do not regret! Its original and for those vegetarians who want to try something new please go now!

Pros: Original fushion, Delicious, Just go!
