Suuuuper delicious food here with a delicious toppings bar! The staff here is very friendly and informative of how they do things! Great menu with plenty options from bowls to salads to soups and more. The falafel is hefty and perfectly seasoned.

My wife and I rode our Ebikes around the Ortega area and decided to stop into the Falafel X Bar for lunch! We've been here several times in the past and never have been disappointed! Everything we've ordered here has always been great and the staff has always been super friendly. We definitely recommend everything on their menu! Today we ordered the Falafel Pita and shared it. It was delicious and full of flavor! We've had similar sandwiches at other places and hands down Falafel x Bar is the BEST!!!! read more

Recently did carry out from Falafel X. Historically, one of our favorites carry out spots. The Beirut burger is a go-to order. A great combination of flavors. This time though, a bit lacking with the avocado and other toppings. I also ordered the Hamsa bowl. While it was delicious, the price point of $15 is a bit much. The service is always great, the food always fresh and still some of the best hummus around. We'll be back but have grown to always expect excellence from Falafel X. Good but not perfect this time. read more

falafel x bar - Beirut Burger with Seasoned Fries - Wine Bars Near Me - Jacksonville, Florida

From the moment you walk into the vibrant outdoor atmosphere the friendly staff make you feel right at home. The falafel is some of the best I've ever had--crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and bursting with flavor. The customizable bowls and pita sandwiches are packed with fresh ingredients, and the hummus and tabbouleh are top-notch. I love the variety of toppings and sauces you can choose from, making each dish feel unique. The portions are generous, and the prices are more than fair for the quality. Whether you're a fan of Mediterranean food or trying it for the first time, Falafel Bar is guaranteed to impress. Highly recommend! read more

Perfect dinner carryout after a day full of walking. The Baerut burger was fantastic, an enormous portion with a crispy outside to the falafel burger and soft and tasty inside. The tzatziki, fresh onions and green on top make it the perfect bite with the chewy roll. I can't resist using all the curry ketchup on the fries, it's so good. No room left for the Brazilian açaí bowl topped with honey and baklava crumbles, but looking forward to eating it tomorrow. Easy online ordering and pickup. read more

The highlights: -The service was pretty quick (5 minute wait for my food). -Outdoor seating only. -The food was excellent. I really loved the lamb, but the "kebabs" were more like lamb-sticks (instead of lamb-on-a-stick) -The atmosphere was relaxed. -The service was lovely! The woman at the counter was extremely helpful! - The pricing was fair read more

Wings were a good size and were nice and juicy. I enjoyed the seasoning blend on them. The garlic wasn't overwhelming and it had hints of lemon. The fries were nicely seasoned as well and the ketchup was on the sweeter side but paired nicely with them.  The hummus was also really good and fresh. It was topped with some olives, whole chickpeas and peppers that added a nice crunch.  The Beirut burger was seasoned well and very filling. A little on the dry side but the sauces it came with helped balance it out.  The workers were also very nice and were eager to make recommendations when I asked. I will definitely be stopping by again! read more

Checked out this little spot in Avondale. I appreciate that it's easy to park here. Plenty of parking across the street. Service was friendly and helpful. I love the covered outdoor space. Hummus was smooth and tasty with plenty olive oil and a nice presentation. I tried a rosé from Turkey. It was very light and refreshing. Also ordered the Palestinian chicken panini. Very well seasoned. I added some hummus to it to have a "sauce". Ended with a kunefe donut that was so tasty! I had kunefe in Turkey and have had a hard time finding it here. This is not the traditional way to make it, of course, but really good and nice to have a small amount instead of a whole dish of it. Will return! read more

Wonderful fresh toppings bar to choose from. Love their seasoned fries!! Always easy to park. Friendly service as well.

Finally got to experience the awesome ambiance at the FxB and ordered the House special with lamb as most dishes are served with Falafel-chickpeas, parsley and over 10 spices, a yummy staple from the Middle East. We got Hummus, Marinated Olives, Green Shatta and Tzatziki housemate with Levantine sauces. They are really delicious. What stood out the most was the Crispy Fried Brussell Sprouts for $9.95. Never have I ever would love the way it was cooked and tasted- Thanks for the recommendation and service Mary and Sandy and the rest of the FxB Fam, great food and company does bring people together especially during these times. We will definitely be back to try out other goodies and will attend the Trivia on Thursday #supportlocal904 read more

falafel x bar - Hummus and Couvent Rouge Rose - Wine Bars Near Me - Jacksonville, Florida

My first visit there was OK. I tried the same menu items again(falafels), Terrible, dry, and over-fried. Quinoa was tasteless. And, it's overpriced for what you get. A 'toppings bar' does not compensate for small servings. To top off this awful experience, this meal wrenched my gut 2 hours later. There are much better places for Middle East cuisine in Jax. The ambiance is bare bones. read more

AMBIANCE: I liked that the Falafel x Bar had indoor and COVERED outdoor seating, overlooking a nice, little garden. SERVICE: The service was good - Mary at the register gave good recommendations. She recommended the Palestinian Chicken and the Pa-tots-ta Harra. Unfortunately, they ran out of the chicken after we ordered and replaced it with the Lamb Kafta Kebab Plate. FOOD: My husband and I ordered the Hummus, Pa-tots-ta Harra, Lamb Kafta Kebab Plate, and the Gyro Pita. The hummus was good; it came with a good amount of pita, which was good. The Pa-tots-ta Harra was AMAZING!! I didn't think it was spicy, despite what they indicated. This was the best item we ordered in my opinion. The Gyro Pita was good, although a little too much tzatziki for my liking. I enjoyed their fries, which came with the meal. My husband got the Lamb Kafta Kebab Plate and we were not as pleased with this item. First, the "Plate" wasn't really a plate (aka meat, side, etc.). My husband and I were a bit disappointed as he was missing like a side of rice or salad or both with the plate. You can see in the picture it's a pretty bare meal option. All in all, I would try this place again and try some of their other options to feel more well rounded. read more

Stopped here recently when in the area. I love falafel so had been wanting to try it for some time. They have several menu options other than falafel, but since that is what I came in for, that is what I ordered. I ordered the falafel in pita. They have a great topping bar that is included in the price for some of their items (not all, so be aware). The falafel was good. The topping bar was great. Lots of selections such as pickled cabbage, tahani, olives, picked veggies, feta cheese, a couple of other sauces, pickled cauliflower, garbanzo beans, eggplant, seasoned cucumbers, fresh tomatoes and probably some things I am forgetting. I was a little disappointed that the pita bread was not toasted or warmed. The falafel was moist inside and crispy outside, and the toppings added a nice compliment to the meal. Their french fries were nicely seasoned and very tasty. Staff was informative and patient with questions. read more

A cute little place filled some amazing scents and mouth watering options. I started with the spicy cauliflower. For the most part it was really good! I got one or two bad bites (odd taste, not sure what it was) but the rest of it was really good. It was probably just a fluke bc I'll definitely be ordering again. The French fries my husband ordered had some seasoning on them that was really good. The Nazarene Chicken pita was delicious. I put on some of the spicy paste from the seasoning bar and it hit the spot. read more

I like to eat healthy lunch and FXB has done amazing vegan options, but in three trips i have not found anything i love. It is in the spot vacated by Chomp Chomp, with plenty of parking on the street. Service could not have been more friendly or more helpful which was important since I wanted help with the menu items. While I waited, they gave me some sample from the buffet bar, which was more like a toppings bar. Some people may think it odd, but I thought it was genius. I like things that may a spot unique. So here are some of the buffet bar toppings I tried: Eggplant - crispy on the outside, tender inside Pickled Turnips - INCREDIBLE, and I don't like turnips Pickled Cauliflower - good, but not as flavorful as the turnips. Probably because the cauliflower does not easily absorb the marinade. For my entree I ordered the Jerusalem Burger with seasoned fries. The fries were crisp and delicious and needed no ketchup or condiments to be good. The Jerusalem burger was just not my cup of tea. It was very dry, had little sauce and had a spice level that was above my pay grade. It was well prepared and I am sure others would like it. Ditto with my other two visits, food was okay but just not as good as competing restaurants in this area. By far the best thing for me was the toppings bar, it really rocks. I really want to go back and try more turnips and a few other menu items. read more

The Falafel x bar has the BEST Mediterranean food from delicious falafel with incredible hummus spread and all the delicious fresh, pickled, saucy, and spicy toppings your heart could desire! We stopped by for dinner last night and had a chance to talk to the owners and their vision for opening up this place. Fresh, healthy, colorful + flavorful ingredients and menu items. We loved their concept of creating your own falafel bar build your sandwich or bowl and top it with your fav ingredients at the Bar: roasted eggplant, marinated cucumber, pickled turmeric cauliflower and a variety of yummy sauces. All the additional toppings were delicious. Our favorites were the eggplant, pickled turmeric cauliflower and the beets. Everything was well seasoned, well cooked, and presented beautifully. Here's what we tried: Watermelon Salad Sweetest Watermelon, mint, secret herbs, and black sesame seeds. Soufra is a "spread" of food loaded with crispy falafels, pickled vegetables, makdous, hummus, labrie, and fries. The fries were so thin, nice and crispy and the sumac on top was a good addition. The soufra platter is the best way to sample different things on the menu. Vegan Baerut Burger - so flavorful, crunchy, delicious Falafel patty on top of mixed greens, sliced avocado, red pickled onion served inside a warm ka'ik bagel sesame seed bun! Vegan Tahini Chocolate Chip Cookie - Classic giant chocolate chip cookie thickened and baked with Tahini. The cookie was to die for! read more

Sandy was the co-owner of Falafel and was featured by Yelp during women's history month. What a spread and what a wonderful time had by all. Four courses of mouth watering mediterrian food with succulent tastes from Palestine, Lebanon, and surrounding area. The wine pairing was fantastic. I loved the Chilean wine served and brought a bottle for home. I can not wait to come back for wine tasting on Saturdays. They also have trivia on Thursday. There is a chance to win $100. Kudos to Falafel first for the food, natural wines.and the service. Secondly, to Sandy for being a generous host allowing Yelp to come in sample one of the best kept secrets in Avondale and vicinity! read more

After having my little one and as a first time mama during a pandemic..it was challenge to find places I'd feel safe enough to eat at. falafelbar is just one of those places where the vibe is always peaceful & yummy! My go to is their watermelon salad, with a side of roasted eggplant pieces from their bar, & because balance..the baklava shake. We also love getting their Soufra which is a spread of various foods - this one came with falafel, lentil croquettes, pickled vegetables, akkawi cheese, hummus, labne, palestinian chicken roll, & their delicious seasoned fries. Its perfect for sharing & if you're interested in trying a little bit of everything this would be my suggestion for any first timers. read more

Wow I LOVE this place! I visited for the first time a few months ago during one of their free wine tastings on a Saturday. The inside of the fast casual restaurant is small, but there is a huge covered patio with plenty of tables. I was there when it was chilly and when it was hot and they had both heaters and ceiling fans to regulate the temperature. We planned on just getting a few snacks with some wine, and the "soufra" platter was perfect. It came with a Palestinian chicken panini (that my boyfriend enjoyed), falafel, pickled vegetables, lentil croquettes, hummus, labne, and fries. We also tried the brussel sprouts which were incredible. I eat mostly a vegetarian diet and eat hummus almost every day. The homemade hummus at falafel x bar is the best I've ever had. I am obsessed. I wasn't familiar with labne, but it reminded me of whipped ricotta. I absolutely loved it! The owners and staff really makes this place so amazing. On to the wine! They have a huge selection of natural wines and are knowledgeable about every single one. Be sure to check out their shelf of discounted wines too. Every Saturday they do free wine tastings on the patio. It was fun to learn about different places the wines came from like Slovenia and Lebanon. I enjoyed tasting and bought a few bottles to go. This place is a gem. Free and easy parking right outside too! read more

The concept behind this place is bluntly overwhelming - there is a lot going on. I am usually the type of diner who knows what they want after quickly perusing a menu. But at falafel x bar? I'll be honest, their vast menu was kind of intimidating. It spans the whole wall and, the more I read, the bigger the wall seemed to get. I decided to go with subtle (and most popular) for my first time around. I ordered a simple pita with falafel, lentil croquettes, and a Bam Bam Baklava Shake. What really makes this place special is the expansive self-serve toppings bar. It is filled to the brim with items that will turn your simple pita into the TOTALLY AWESOME COMPLETELY CUSTOMIZED BETTER THAN EVERYONE ELSE'S BECAUSE YOU MADE IT YOURSELF THE WAY YOU LIKED IT AND IF YOU COMPLAIN ABOUT THE FLAVORS ITS YOUR FAULT BECAUSE YOU MADE IT YOURSELF pita. Feta cheese, every pickled veggie you can think of, tomatoes, hummus, olives, etc. etc. etc. For real. It's awesome. It's filling. It's delicious. I would be visiting more often and trying everything on the menu if it weren't so far from me. I'd like to try every Sea Board option there is. read more

My second visit, as good as the first. Easy ordering and explanation of menu. Very fresh prepared food and tins of seafood. I opted for a hummus bowl, which gave access to a fixings bar of great toppings. The pickles were my favorite. Next was a Sea Board: Habanero Smoked Oysters Willapa Bay, Washington Pacific oysters from Ekone oyster co.. Brined in Habanero sauce and maple smoked. They were served on a wooden cutting board with the tin opened and an array of sides. Crispy toast points, garbanzo beans, pickled cauliflower and red onions. This was my favorite. Just a great array of flavors and spice. I was offered a sample of gluten free Tabbouleh, prepared with cauliflower instead of bulgur. Fresh and satisfying. There is a small retail area to the left of the ordering area. The Seafood tins on the Sea Board are offered for sale, as well as other items. A nicely curated natural wine selection. The folks running the place were warm and welcoming. Also very knowledgeable about the wines offered. read more

There is a nice size covered outdoor seating area and a small indoor area to sit. I ordered a falafel bowl. The highlight is the topping bar! So many well-seasoned, delicious toppings! I didn't even really need the falafel. I could have just made a salad bowl from the toppings bar! I ordered takeout, and my husband was stealing my food when I returned home. The desserts looked great. I'll have to try them another time. I didn't drink anything. They have a habibi hour, but I'm not sure about the details. The employees were really nice, And everything clean and neat. This is a welcome addition to the neighborhood! read more
