I ordered the Falafel King Combo without the salad, and they were gracious enough to give me extra hummus instead. Every single item in the combo was extraordinary. The creamy hummus, robust baba ganoush, crispy, flavorful falafel, and soft, moist, & warm dolmas. I avoid gluten so I requested no pita bread. I bought a side of the saffron rice instead. I always taste a restaurant's rice by itself before mixing it with anything else. If a restaurant has delicious & flavorful rice, it is usually a telltale sign that they can truly cook good food. I do not know what they put in this rice (I was told by the manager on site that day that there is no dairy/butter or animal broth in their rice), but it was very good just by itself. And this tells you all you need to know about the food here. I took a to-go menu, which had a little story about the Falafel King owner's humble and calamitous beginnings. Honestly, it brought me to tears. But it made me even happier to support this local business. read more

Terrible service, bland flavor overall, have been waiting to try this restaurant for years, first experience, would not recommend, won't not return. Asked if it was ok to go through drive thru, was told yes by staff in blue shirt then she instructed me to park, then while in my car parked as instructed someone behind counter kept point to the counter, drove around, expressed frustration, asked for refund, they essentially said whatever you got your food and shooed me away then closed door. Zero stars, unsure of indoor ambiance read more

I absolutely love this restaurant it is 10/10 super awesome and the fries are super fire.

This is actually my 2nd day in a row coming I was supposed to get a falafel bowl yesterday, but they gave me a chicken bowl on accident. So I took away a star for that. Thankfully I am not vegetarian so it was fine and I enjoyed it and got it today. Ingredients are so fresh and the flavors go so well. Portion size is perfect. I love that this location has a drive thru and is one of the main factors I chose to come here because with children going into places for pick up is not ideal. Will definitely come back again and love that it is a healthy option for this area. read more

Falafel King - Chicken Shawarma Bowl with rice - Fast Food Near Me - Brooklyn Center, Minnesota

Ordered take out from here last Thursday, after mistakenly taking my kid to a doctor's appointment for the wrong week! Made my day, even with traffic back the food was still warm and tasty, and though I didn't specify we received hummus and a cucumber salad with our meal orders. I bought an extra bag of pita which was super yummy, and slightly sweet, so the kids enjoyed them with our meals (gyro plate, gyro sandwiches for the kiddos, and a chicken kebab plate) and then used them for pb&j the following day. Will definitely return. All the meat is halal and there is a certificate up on the counter. There is high top seating as well as tables and everything was clean. Easy parking. Friendly staff. We have been to other Falafel King locations in the area, but I think this one may be my favorite. read more

Fast Casual Middle Eastern. Stopped by here Sunday afternoon with friends. The place has plenty of seating and parking. Lots of other establishments are in the area. The staff seemed distant, but were attentive when we ordered. We had about 8 people order after the lunch rush, so I'm sure they were prepping for the evening shift. We ordered for take away. I ordered the Falafel King Combo with a Fanta. The food was fairly average for the category. I was very disappointed with the dolmades; the rice was dry :/ the hummus and babaghanough were lacklustre. They tasted like a spread, but for the price point, I'd rather pick up a tub from a certain Trader. I'm not familiar with the area, but if you're willing to drive there are other choices for Mediterranean/ Middle Eastern. read more

Falafel King - Fast Food Near Me - Brooklyn Center, Minnesota

The service was great. The food was good. The lamb was slightly overdone. A little tough to eat, but everything else was great. You can eat in. I don't remember any outdoor seating. The restaurant was nice inside with plenty of napkins and plasticware I'd go back read more

Looking for fast mediterranean? Check it. Pictured is lamb shawarma bowl. It comes with a choice of rice, potatoes, salad or fries. So yo can pick how healthy you want to eat. But with it comes slaw and tabouleh. Very filling with the potatoes. The lamb was a tad over cooked but I am not expecting fine dining. The service was pleasant and all questions were answered knowledgeably. read more

Falafel King - Lamb bowl aka Shawarma Bowl - Fast Food Near Me - Brooklyn Center, Minnesota

The food was lukewarm warm and tasted like it had been sitting there for a bit. I won't be coming back.

Having healthy fast food options is seemingly non-existent but not with Falafel King here. I'm so in love with the Mediterranean salad and the chicken Shawarma bowl. I recommend going in and just getting stuff from the open kitchen so then you can see everything in front of you. Is a great place. read more

Great Falafels, humus and shawarma bowls. By far my favorite thing was the baba ghanoush with pita bread. Best I've ever had i would give that 10 stars read more

Those who know diets, say a Mediterranean diet is the best. You can't go wrong w/ Falafel King. They get the right ingredients, just the right touch cooking, and at a reasonable price. If you love food, unusual taste, and want to get away from the traditional hamburger and fries, this is an excellent place to go. The only drawback is there should be more Falafel Kings around. read more

I asked what was good and the drive through said the king platter, which is veggie. I also ordered a side of the gyro meat. The price was nice considering I got enough for two ppl which just those two items and everything tasted wonderful. The reason I'm leaving the review is because I've driven past this place a zillion times never trying. I guess I assumed it was going to be sketchy fast food but I found it to be totally worth the money and quality was great. The bread was yum, I should have ordered a second piece because by boyfriend loved the fresh smell. read more

Falafel King - King platter - Fast Food Near Me - Brooklyn Center, Minnesota

Ordered via drive through for takeout and we enjoyed the roasted chicken shawarma served on rice with hummus, jerusalem salad and served with satziki sauce. YUM! Price was $10.99 and the meal was good for two people. Will be back! read more

Just got home... I ordered 2 shawarma plate, SPECIALLY saying NOT CHICKEN shawarma. I open the boxes, and what do I find? Chicken Shawarma. What innthe actual fuck? I only gave one star so I can write this comment.. WHAT IN THE ACTUAL FUCK???? read more

I am so happy to have Middle Eastern food nearby. We got a small order the other night, everything was correct, on time, and tasty. It's possibly I will update this to a 5 star after trying more menu items. The stuffed grape leaves will be key since I think my dad makes the best ones. but I wanted to get a good review up now so this new location gets off to a good start. read more

Yes I went to the one in Brooklyn Ctr mn The service was great they help you if you haven't been there before it to warn you the green soup is not the best and neither is the cucumber sauce for your euros read more

was a super friendly staff, the falafels were great and the rest was decent. have a drive through which is nice

I'm so thankful to have this place in Brooklyn Center. The drive thru isn't the fastest service but it's because each order is made fresh. They use fresh, delicious ingredients and it's a breath of fresh air when many other places nearby are typical fast food burger spots. I love the chicken shawarma pita pocket with fries! They also have delicious baklava. read more

Good service and big portions Food was good and the people were pleasant Prices were reasonable We would go back A Diamond in the rough We were on a road trip when we found this place They have other places in the Minneapolis area Falafel Sandwich was good read more

HORRIBLE!! If you have NEVER had Mediterranean food, this fodder may quench your hunger, BUT if you have had Mediterranean food, even the gyros at Arby's, this place will let you down. First of all, DO NOT order through a delivery service, because this place does not check what they're placing in which bags. Secondly, the burgers are well done, the gyro meat is a combination of hard & crispy and soft and mushy. The salad was tasteless, and ALL of the rest of the food, including everything previously listed, could have been served in a hospital or jail--completely tasteless, absolutely no seasoning. The gyro meat is thick slices, and not the thin shavings, so to get some that are tough & crispy and also receive some that are soft and mushy, that's a huge issue. Will not go back. Will not recommend. EXTREMELY, Extremely, extremely underwhelming and disappointing. read more

We stopped a while ago, looking for a good dinner option. There are several places in the area, but we were looking for something different. This location fits the bill. Even though we stopped here a little after 8, ( they closed at 9 pm.), they actually accommodated us. They did not mind that we took a few extra minutes to order. I decided on a falafel burger, as it had been a long time, since I have had one. With my food I got some fries and baklava to go with my meal. I was able to have some of my food at the restaurant, and the rest when I got home. The burger was just incredible juicy, just like how a burger is supposed to be. Plus with crispy fries, what more can be said. Of course my burger was a little bigger than your average burger at a typical restaurant. Plus the ingredients were a little bit bigger as well like the pickles and cheese. It would be so good to go back again sometime. Maybe to try a gyro, or maybe even a salad. read more

Middle Eastern food drive-thru? Yes, please! Ordered chicken kabob combo. It came with 2 kabobs with large amount of flame grilled pieces of chicken breast, yellow rice, cucumber- tomato Jerusalem salad, hummus and pita bread. Definitely enough for lunch and leftovers for dinner. It was absolutely delicious! The price of 10.99 was a value for the amount of food in the meal. I will definitely be back to try other menu items. Service was friendly and answered questions I had. Love a great drive thru when it's too cold to get out of the car! read more

YASSSSS finally middle eastern restaurant place in BC. Food cook to order and amazing. Gyros, platters, combos and specials. Bit of a wait but totally worth it! read more

The Falafel Sandwich I had here was as close as it gets to the Middle East in America. It was SO EPIC. The service was friendly. The price was good for the amount of food and I would definitely go back again. I highly recommend it if for nothing but the Falafel it is WORTH it!. read more

I had a Gyro with fries. tasted great with friendly service but kinda on the expensive side...I would rather go to Athens Cafe in Robbinsdale read more

I want to love this place but I don't care for big pieces of purple cabbage or carrots in my gyro or the giant wedges of tomatoes and onions. Maybe try a shredded lettuce for the gyros and salad. read more
