I tried the Shawarma plate to go. It came with french fries pita tahini, hot sauce, pickles. Very yummy food the salad needed more lemon and salt. Delicious Shawarma and cabbage salad. Also, the french fries were so good. Highly recommend trying out.

Do you have an idea of an approximate date to reopen? I have been going through withdrawal symptoms from not eating your food?

As of right now, we do not have an exact date for the grand opening, but it will approximately be within 3–5 weeks. Thank you for your patience and understanding as we are working hard behind the scenes to move forward as quickly as possible.

My coworker recommended this place and we decided to come give it a try as a group…read more At first, I was surprised how small the place was, but when you enter, you order at a touchpad near the entrance and then wait for your order to be called inside. They had utensils, napkins, and sauces with containers while you wait. I ordered the falafel bowl and pali salad in case the bowl itself wasn't enough. It did take longer than the other orders but once I got it, we sat outside where they had a few tables and chairs. The bowl looked fresh and vibrant, so many colors and a decent amount of falafel. I tried their white and mazbout sauces on the salad. I'm glad it had spinach as it helped reduce water from seeping out. The falafel was slightly spicy since I am terrible with spic r tolerance but the sauce made it very balanced. I also got to try someone's fries and it was super delicious, the spices they used on the fries were flavorful and the fried were very crispy and smooth inside. Overall, very nice quick lunch, we arrived before they opened right at 12pm and avoided the lunch rush! Very affordable prices as well.

The only ratings I will give are 5 stars, which is enjoyable, or 3 stars which is needs work. I went to UCLA, and I believe this is the old Jose Bernstein's address. I went there in the hundreds of times. I like this place, and appreciate that they keep their prices so low. I think the falafel bowl I had was $6 or something ludicrous like that. It was good, not great. I also had the veggie shawarma. I won't get that again. It was mushy, and when I go for that dish, I'm not trying to be healthy. I guess if I were vegan for principled reasons, I might appreciate that more....... It was one and done for me. Shout out to the workers there. It was Ce and Michelle. Ce is one of the nicest restaurant workers I've ever met!!! Total gem!

I can never finish their plates as the portions are huge, but it's always so good! My favorite thing to get is the hummus & fried chicken plate! The flavors pair well with each other and even when I would take it home, I would just air fry the chicken and heat up everything else, besides the hummus. Service: 10/10! Employees taking our orders always had a great attitude and was always just so kind. Our food would come out pretty quick, which was great since we had an hour lunch break. Ambiance: 10/10! Such a cool ambiance inside, but small seating area. Also outdoor seating is an option. I don't work in downtown anymore, but I would definitely come back with friends to this place!

I love the vibrant colors of all the different items on the plate and how the portion is decent for the price. $20 for the plate was steep at first but I was glad to see how much stuff is included. The fried chicken is perfectly cooked and the hummus is good! The rice and pickled veggies are also a nice touch to finish the dish off. :) I like the flat bread that comes with the order. There's a perfect amount of different flavors of each item on the plate. I've also tried the falafel plate and it was good. I definitely prefer the falafel overall because they were perfectly cooked! Crispy and not dry compared to other places I've tried. The filling is full and the texture wasn't hard. My only complaint to this would be I NEVER get utensils which is frustrating lol. Of all the times I've ordered takeout, I never get utensils! Definitely recommend!

Well, to start off, I must admit I drove by this place about 10 times before I finally went in. All…read morethose times, I never saw people inside. Which I understand why. I finally went in today and sadly, was not only disappointed, my fantasy of Falafel King was destroyed forever. I know Benito used to work for Falafel King, but this place is nothing like it. The service was horrible. The guy behind the little counter was not nice at all. In fact he was rude. And didn't like if you asked him questions. But that aside, sitting in this little tiny restaurant was not a good feeling. We were the only ones there. They have a seating area outside, I'm guessing for overflow - yet, the table and chairs were right there in the middle of the restaurant. Piled up. They didn't even bother to take it outside. Put all that aside - we get to the food. One of the best things Falafel King has were the "chips", which were battered slices of potatoes that were deep fried. These were slices of potato, they were potato chips. Thin. No "meat" on them, if you know what I mean. And sadly, they were fried either early this morning or last night. Terrible, cold, hard, no taste - not even salt. We move on the falafel - which tasted good. The taste of the falafel itself was good, but the oil dripping down my hand an face was not. I blame that on the oil not being hot enough when he put the falafel into the oil. Next, the actual shwarma is not really shwarma (like you all know it). There was no revolving slab of meat where the fat melts into the meat and makes it so so special. No. This was a little baggy of already cooked meat with no spices on it thrown on the plancha and heated up. Hard and tasteless. Very disappointing. I picked it out of my pita and ate the salad with tehina and spicy eggplant (which WAS tasty). The pita is also a thin hard pita - not the nice fluffy type. I didn't finish my food, and my friend didn't finish the food, as you can see in the pictures. Sorry to give it a 1 - but to say you have ANY connection to "Falafel King" is a disgrace. Sorry if I sound brutal. I tell it like it is.

Love love love this spot. I've dined in numerous times and also ordered delivery from here…read more The food is always shockingly delicious! Each individual item is great on its own but the combination of flavors is what really takes it over the top for me. I usually get the kefta plate, but decided to try the shewarma this time and it was great. Boyfriend loved his salmon plate and insisted we come back :) We also tried the cinnamon halva shakes (not pictured) which were interesting, but not what either of us expected. Very creamy and not too sweet, with the tahini flavor overpowering the cinnamon. The ambiance of this spot is great - love the intimate patio area with string lights. There was a fire going in the stove too which was super cozy. One of my go to classy-casual spots!

I got the schnitzel plate which came with rice, hummus, salad, pita bread, and mustard sauce. The mustard sauce really through me off since I was thinking more of toom sauce or tzatziki sauce. The rice had an odd taste, more on the bland side? However the pita was very hefty and pita pocket ready. The hummus was good with a few yellow chilies (super spicy). The schnitzel was hefty and huge portions almost like 5 pieces of chicken. With the portion size it's a decent price for it. Highly recommend trying out this new taste.
