Quick, tasty, satisfying

It’s just consistently good. Good falafel and there’s a salad/topping bar where you can go wild. For a fair price. You’re not walking away hungry. Nothing fancy, a simple bite that satisfies.

Pros: good salad / topping bar, quick bite, affordable

Great falafel pitas, great value

At Maoz the falafel is consistently very good and combined with the wonderful salad bar, where you can refill your pita, it makes a fantastically tasty and filling meal.

The staff at the Leidsestraat one is very friendly too. 😀

Vegan Fries for the win

Everything was vegan! I love that we don’t have to worry about the fries being made in the same oil is meat. They were very good and even had vegan mayo.

Friendly and fresh!

Very fresh and delicious. The chips (fries) were as close to perfect as is possible to get in this country. Because they weren't cooked in animal fat, they were easy to eat! All sauces were vegan which was such a relief. It seems almost impossible to get vegan-friendly sauce for falafel in most places, but this eatery had exactly what I wanted; garlic mayo, spicy mayo, curry sauce, tahini, mamba sauce! Excellent.

Great selection of pickled veggies and serve-yourself salad station. Most chains are utterly miserable affairs but I strongly recommend MAOZ to any hungry traveller. Also quite affordable, which is always a plus.

So filling, pretty good!

For an inexpensive meal and a healthy one at that, this is pretty dang good. You pick all your toppings, whether a bowl or pita, and your sauces. I thought it was great for a mid day walk around lunch!

Pros: Cheap, Healthy, Yummy

Great fast food option

Visited in June 2024

Very good option for a fast snack/lunch. Love the concept and I think its great that there is a fast food chain with only vegan food. Hope that they are in Germany soon.

Pros: Service/price, Taste, Concept

Great food and service!

I desided to get salad bowl with falafel, it's so nice you get to pick what you want in your own salad. The woman working there was so nice and told me she had worked there for over 30 years. I told her that I took pics of the food and asked if I could get one of the front. It was no problem and she said she had never heard about Happy Cow. And that it's apps like that that helps they stay open so she appreciated that so much ❤️

Pros: Falafel was so crispy and good , Very enjoyable and nice personal , Clean and good atmosphere

Perfect for a quick bite. Tasty, 100% vegan

I wish we had this in Belgium. We have kebab places but they’re never 100% vegan. Maoz rocks!

Pros: All vegan, Tasty, Cheap

Cons: No cons

Convenient and Tasty food

Had a quick bite here, consisting of a falafel wrap and fries, with choice of salads and dips. Really nice food and all vegan. Close to the Melkweg venue for a pre gig bite to eat.

Pros: The food , The choices, The location

Make your own, except after it’s been made

A falafel pita here is bread, falafel and lettuce only. If you want extra, you have 30 free options that you then have to squeeze into the mouth of the already-made pita, resulting in a pita that’s half topping and half bone dry

Good late night snack

We went there late at night and it was great that they were still open. The fries were okay but definitely not the best I’ve had. It was great though to have vegan mayonnaise with them. (But be prepared for A LOT of mayonnaise)

Affordable

Nice, small place, about 5 minute walking distance from Amsterdam Central Station.

Toppings are free and lots of vegetables and sauces to choose from. 😊

Great to curb your hunger.

Falafel is amazing btw.

Best falafel ever

I tried their falafel hummus sandwich and it was perfection. You get to put unlimited toppings on your sandwich and they have quite the variety. So simple and so delicious!

Excellent fast food

Visited twice during my time in the city, once had a pitta with mushroom shoarma, once with eggplant. The pitta breads are so soft and fresh, delicious bread, and the fillings I tried were nice and fresh and tasty too.
You can add to your pitta or salad box from the bar of sauces and toppings, including different salads, veggies, etc. I particularly liked the pink onions, and the garlic sauce too.
Price was good, service was fast and friendly - would definitely visit again! #Veganuary
