Falafel and bread are so much better than usual.

Pros: Salad was all you can eat, The salad was filling: rice, lentils, It was delicious: hummus, good sauces and spice

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

Delicious

One of the best (egyptian) falafels in town. The owner is always very friendly. The vegetabled to add to your bread are delicious as well. The spicy sauce is recommended!

Pros: Delicious, You can take as much salad and veggies as you want

Cons: Not so cozy to sit inside

Brussels’ Best Falafel: Affordable, Delicious, and Vegan-Friendly

This restaurant is a hidden gem for falafel lovers! The falafel is top-notch—super flavorful and delicious. Prices are incredibly affordable, making it great value for the quality. The owner is exceptionally warm and welcoming, adding to the wonderful experience. With about 90-95% of the menu being vegan (except for a few salads), it’s an ideal spot for plant-based food enthusiasts. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Brussels!

Proper falafels

This place has so many good reviews, and to be honest it's a bit difficult to understand. The positives are that the falafel itself is really good and proper, and that you get wholewheat bread. However, I don't wanna buy and grab my own stuff when I go to a place. I pay for someone having thought througg what composes a good meal, but I also get that people like picking and choosing. The things you can choose are alright, but nothing special. The place is not very welcoming, so I recommend doing take away.

Are all of these other reviews fake?

I mean the falafel was edible - far from being the “best falafel ever” as people are claiming - but the place was also not really a cool environment to be in. Not sure if I’m missing anything here but yeah…
