Good food, but an uncomfortable experience

Unfortunately, our experience here was quite different from what we expected based on the reviews. We were travelling as vegans, and my friend simply introduced himself as a vegan and asked whether everything was vegan, as he was concerned that some items not listed on the menu, such as the sauces, might contain animal ingredients. Instead of helping us clarify what was vegan, the owner seemed very agitated and responded that this is a vegetarian shop. We were already quite hungry and it was late, so we decided to stay and have something to eat anyway. The food itself was actually good, and we had no complaints about the taste. However, the interaction with the owner made the experience uncomfortable. He came across as rather hostile and unhappy throughout our visit, and we did not feel particularly welcome. Perhaps he was simply having a bad day, and we do not want to judge the restaurant based on one interaction. But for us, the service and attitude unfortunately overshadowed what was otherwise good food.

Pros: Convenient option for a quick meal, Good-tasting food

Cons: Unfriendly and uncomfortable interaction with the , Owner seemed agitated when we asked about vegan

Best Falafel in Town

The tastiest falafel I tried so far, made out of broad beans. Staff very welcoming and nice. You can select different kinds of salad, buffet style. You can pay by card & all sauces are vegan (according to the person that was working there)!

Ein schönes Erlebnis

Wir waren heute erst spät angekommen, und kurz vor 22 Uhr erst bei Mr. Falafel. Trotz des späten Abends bekamen wir noch frische selbstgemachte Falafel in einer knusprigen Vollkorntasche, und durften uns die Teller mit jeder Menge frischer verschiedener Salate füllen.
Einfach traumhaft, lecker und der Besitzer total lieb. Auf jeden Fall empfehlenswert!!!

Tasty falafel

The place wouldn't get a hygiene passport but otherwise everything was great. If you know what you want to fill your pita with and opt for takeaway it all works.

Pros: One could freely choose the salad fillings, Yummy falafel

Cons: A bit unsanitary, No ready made dishes

Freshly made falafel

The falafel was freshly made and tasty. The salad was unlimited and there was lots of variety. The owner was super friendly. It was also good value for money.

Amazing food and friendly staff

Het eten was heel erg lekker. De medewerkers waren vriendelijk. Enige ding is dat er non-vegan ayran in de koelkast stond en dat mag wel naar vegan ayran veranderd worden!

Updated from previous review on 2026-03-28

Pros: Vriendelijke man, Hele lekkere falafel, Goedkoop

Cons: Niet-vegan ayran!

Great Value & Friendly Owner

While the restaurant itself is quite basic it’s clean & the key thing is the fresh food. The lovely owner is constantly frying up batches of fresh falafel and the recipe is clearly labelled above the kitchen. There is also a help yourself ‘as much as you can eat’ salad bar. For €8 you get 6 large falafels in a huge flat bread plus salad. The owner is very friendly & helpful & brought freshly made mint tea to all the customers too.

Pros: Value, Freshness, Friendliness

Cons: Cutlery was a bit grubby

Exactly what I needed

Self serve salad with a lot of varied condiments, all vegan and delicious. If you are a falafel fan then this is for you!

Edit: if it's fully vegan, why is it selling Aryan yoghurt drink which lists cow milk as an Ingredient? Someone local should investigate.

Bugs and bad vibes

Maybe we caught them on an "off" day - but previous reviews surprised me. This is, without a doubt, the worst place I have ever eaten.

The good: the freshly-made falafel was tasty, and hot.

The bad: the salad looked like it had sat there for DAYS. Brown lettuce, dried carrot on the turn, and - spotted after I'd put some on my plate - a beetrooty salad that had tiny flies crawling on/in it. Extra protein, probably not vegan.

Quite frankly it was an embarrassment to veganism.

The vibe was... non-existant. Granted, it's hard to create an atmosphere in such a tiny space. I think there were some fairy lights.

We stayed for as long as was polite before paying (by card, €34 for 4 pittas and a drink) and leaving.

Kids never want falafel again.

Pros: Freshly cooked falafel, Card payment

Cons: Bugs in salad, Vibe

Delicious and cheap falafel in Brussels

The pitas were quite tasty! The ones we ate were made of fava beans, which I had never tasted before. They had the perfect flavour: neither strong nor bland.
Also, you can serve yourself as much salad as you want; it is part of the price you pay for a pita:)
On the other hand, the owner was very kind to us:))

Pros: Food, Attention/Service, Price

Cons: Location

Great falafel, friendly and good value

Pay for the falafel sandwich and help yourself to as much toppings and extra salads, pickles etc as you wish on your plate. Great food and value. The owner is really friendly. Top falafel joint!

Amazing

I nominate the man behind the counter for a good vibes award. Not only was our food fresh and delicious, but the man serving us was an absolute pleasure.

Also from what the man said and the indoor sign, this place is all vegan, not just vegetarian.

Best falafel in town?

In the city centre, a stone's throw from the Grand Place, behind Fontainas Square, hidden in Bogaardenstraat, you'll find this little no-nonsense eatery where you'll be served probably the best falafel in town in a whole-wheat pita roll. The vegetables are self-service. For 11 euros, you have a nice and tasty nutritious meal, drinks included!

Pros: Vegan!, Great falafel , Simple and cheap
