This was a delightful find on Mamaroneck Avenue. I ordered a shawarma chicken in pita for take-out. The staff were friendly and accommodated my curiosity when I asked what the "red paste" was; it was red pepper hummus and I asked them to add it to the top of my pita. Now for the food itself; this was a really good pita sandwich. The chicken was cooked well, all the ingredients seemed fresh, and it was a nice change from the usually "middle eastern" style of chicken in pita. Don't get me wrong, the middle eastern pita sandwich is still my "go to", but this pita will also be in my take-out lunch rotation. You should give this place a try. read more

Updating my review to five stars because I am now totally a fan! Every time I'm in White Plains, I want their hummus and it's so creamy, such a generous portion, lots of olive oil, so darn good (photos below). I crave it all the time with their fluffy pita. Have to give them five stars for their delicious hummus and Israel love on the walls! 5 stars!!! read more

I love their food! It's excellent and the best food ever to order! I am hooked. The food is fresh and delicious!

The warm doughy pita is the highlight. Falafel and hummus are excellent. Small and cozy. Just a couple of tiny tables, but partial seating in the front windows makes for interesting people and dog watching. Outdoor seating as well. Nice area. Lots of culture and it's interesting. read more

TOMA Mediterranean kitchen - Falafel Platter - Falafel Near Me - White Plains, New York

3.5 stars I'm here probably more than I would like to admit, but everything is usually good, and I may have developed an addiction to the chermoula sauce. However at the white plains location, the girlie employee at the register always has a stank look on her face and never a greeting or smile or thank you. The parking here is always chaotic with people double tripped parked down Mamaroneck. Last time we ordered the veggie patties it was burnt and served face up in the take out container, so obviously the cook and the employees saw it before being packaged -- but still chose to serve it. read more

STOP! Felafel place is gone, replaced by Toma, but the website has not been updated. Ordered and paid online, only to go pick up my order and find it did not exist. My credit card had already been charged, and I had to push the notably unfriendly counter person to get my $ refunded. Felafel Place was amazing and I loved that place. Toma has a different menu and, frankly, I do not expect to go back. There are many other good options in downtown White Plains read more

Got a chance to try so many delicious veggie dishes at Falafel Place today! The staff was so friendly and the food was fresh and delicious. Loved all the falafel, veggie patties, eggplant shakshuka and salad. You can't really go wrong with any of the dishes here. If you want to pick up a quick lunch to go then highly recommend the sandwiches. The pita bread was thick and very tasty too! Please support your local businesses! read more

It was Lunch time....1:30pm... yesterday I was feeling the side effects of stressful work day. I had already finished about 60% of the work and I was extremely hungry. Every time I open up Yelp I'm always being reminded about this Falafel Place restaurant that opened up 5 months ago. Falafel Place this, Falafel Place that. ALL THE TIME IM ALWAYS BEING NOTIFIED about this restaurant and how popular it currently is! So I decided to finally go check it out.... Below I'll post a series of photos of my experience eating a Falafel sandwich... go ahead and view it..... Ok the first photo is the presentation of the beautifully constructed Falafel Sandwich with the addition of extra tzatziki sauce and pickles. The second photo is after I had taken a HUGE BITE of the sandwich because after smelling the aroma literally engulfed my noise. It was just an amazing sandwich! The after picture is literally the aftermath of falafels. So much seasoning it was just so damn good Please support the locals . read more

I noticed Falafel Place a short while ago while walking down Mamaroneck Ave. While many spots in downtown White Plains have unfortunately closed since the start of the pandemic, there are a few that have opened or are opening soon. Since I want to support local and love exploring new places, I made an intention to try them out for lunch. This is the second Falafel Place to open in Westchester, the other one being on Central Park Ave in Yonkers. The space itself isn't large, but they have a small seating area inside as well as more outside. The color scheme is bright which makes the space seem very open - additionally they have a very nice mural on one of the walls which adds to the whim to the space. Falafel is the star of the menu, but they do have some eggplant dishes as well as traditional Mediterranean sides like hummus and tzatziki. I wanted to try their falafel, so I went with the sandwich and a side of lentils and rice. The sandwich was essentially a pita stuffed with falafel, chopped tomato, chopped cucumber, and dressing. The sandwich was very good - it was stuffed generously with filling and had great flavor; it also came with a sauce that added just the right amount of spice. The lentils with rice were good - I would like to have seen a more even mix of the two (there was definitely more rice), but it was still a nice alternative to potatoes. Service was fast and friendly, and overall I had a great first experience here. I'm glad a place like this opened in White Plains - they're providing something different than the usual eateries in the city, and I look forward to my next visit. read more

I've been waiting for this place to open! I've tried to come here a few times. They're closed by 8. So if you want to stop by, make sure you do before then! I've stopped in a couple times. It's always busy and loud so I find it to be much easier to order and have food delivered. The falafel pita was good. It had a lot of dressing in it and was super garlic-y. I would definitely get it without this next time. But the falafels inside of the pita were good. I usually love tabouli. I ordered theirs. It was flavorful but super dry. I probably wouldn't order this again. I also ordered the fries. These were crispy, hot and fresh! I usually don't like fries but these were good! I don't normally go to places when they first open but I wanted to try their falafels! I would definitely go back in a couple weeks (since this is their first week open). read more

Any time I am in the area I remember to get a falafel sandwich from this place. The pita is soft, the falafel is crunchy and the salad is fresh. I love the green hot sauce they provide and wish I could buy a tub! The place is small and has about 3 tables tightly packed so you will have to eat fast or take it to go. The staff on my last visit was friendly and I could see how hard they were working. Hope the owner appreciates the staff. read more

Delicious and consistent...my go to. The hummus and sides are a perfect match. The pitas are fresh and fluffy. read more

TOMA Mediterranean kitchen - Falafel platter - Falafel Near Me - White Plains, New York

This is such an excellent find in White Plains. A vegan falafel joint with the softest pita bread and any type of yummy filling that you want. I had the eggplant pita (which does come with an optional egg, so not strictly vegan) but yummy all the same! I'll definitely be going back! #whiteplainsrealtor #bestplacestoeat read more

Once again Yelp steered me to a top notch dining establishment. The name "Falafel place" and the establishment itself is simple and unassuming. The falafel, however, is delicious. I picked up two falafel sandwiches for my mom and me. The pita was freshly made as were its ingredients - perfect fried falafel balls, diced cucumbers and tomatoes with a dash of spicy hummus sauce. Two sandwiches came in at under $20. I'll be back to try some of their other delights. Limited indoor and more outdoor seating. Ask for napkins/ utensils if you need them. read more

I tried the falafel sandwich. I bread was nice and fresh but everything else was not good. The falafel had a bad taste like it was fried in old oil. I took 2 bites and threw the rest out. read more

Ordered delivery from Falafel Place last night and I'm already craving it again this morning!! I had the eggplant shakshuka and eggplant sandwich and I loved both! The shakshuka was the perfect amount of spicy - enough to make the dish interesting but not too much to make it hard to eat; and had a generous portion of eggplant. The eggplant sandwich (sabich) came on fresh and delicious pita and had generous portions of all ingredients. The French fries were delivered crispy. I will definitely definitely order again! read more

Love this place. My go to order is always lentil soup and lentils with rice and hot pepper. Both are great options. They also offer carrot-ginger soup and butternut squash soup. read more

My first time trying falafel place in white plains and to be honest I didn't know they were here as shops tend to open and close to many times in white plains . OK not a big falafel guy but I will try a falafel pita with lettuce and tomatoes with the white sauce on the side . Not bad at all as the fried chickpeas balls where good and the toasted pita bread is the bonus as well. They also have platters , salads , SOUPS, vegetable dishes ,shakshuka, etc. Place is small with limited seating but good enough space to sit and enjoy some middle eastern grub. Overall a good addition to white plains and better then some of the other fast food options around . Next time I will try the cous cous and hummus platter read more

We got Uber takeout, so can't really speak to service and ambience, but the food is great. We've eaten falafel in NYC, SF and LA, and this is some of the best. We ordered sides of falafel, hummus, baba and pita. All excellent. Falafel were light, fluffy and crispy outside. Seasoned perfectly. Hummus and baba ganoush were balanced and creamy and pita were warm and fluffy. Looking forward to eating there soon. read more

Best Falafel in NY that we've had! Service and ambience was great too! Highly recommend!

Vegan family, we got the falafel platter, fries, and cauliflower and it was all really good. Veggies tasted fresh. The pita served with the platter was great. Will definitely be back. read more

We used them for catering and lunches. It was better a few months ago. Quality down. Price up. They now use lettuce as a filler for the falafel sandwich. It used to be only Israeli salad. Eggplant sandwich has way too much of pickles as filler and very little eggplant. I'm disappointed because I loved this place but it doesn't compare to what it was about a year ago. read more

Falafel place has become a household and workplace favorite to get delivery from! It's the only place in westchester, in my opinion, that makes falafel sandwiches right. The pita is soft and fluffy, the falafel are the perfect size and balance of crunchy on the exterior yet soft chickpea interior, and more importantly the veggies and sauces are distributed evenly throughout. The green sauce that comes with the falafel is great, but the only missing piece is the red chili sauce that usually accompanies a falafel pita sandwich! Other than that, the pita sandwich is a great portion size, extremely affordable, and arrives quickly upon delivery! Highly highly recommend :) read more

The food is delicious and the service is always great. It's a cute spot to grab a bite in town. The falafel (as the name suggests) are often the stars of the show but everything we've had there is delicious. read more

The sandwich girl got pissed because I forgot to say no eggs. She was rolling her eyes and sighing. I know this isn't NYC, but I except customer service. So I simply asked for a refund. read more

The falafel sandwich was, no joke, one of the most delicious things I have ever eaten. The falafel was light on the inside, crunchy on the outside, and its richness contrasted with the light tahini sauce and cucumber tomato relish beautifully. There was a slight zest from some sort of seasoning inside, but very light. Also, that spicy sauce they give with it cuts through the flavors and highlights everything. The shakshukah was really tasty and comforting, but couldn't compare to the sandwich. It was so delicous that I reordered another falafel sandwich and shakshukah and ate them instantly. It is on the expensive side if you order them together (especially if you do 2x like I did) but that's westchester for you read more

We picked up felafel sandwiches--the basic recipe for $10.50--and got pita stuffed to the gills with crunchy felafel balls, tasty sauces, and fresh veggies. The pita was a bit soggy--maybe cos we waited 1/2 hour to eat--but overall it was a yummy dinner and a good deal. read more

The falafel is perfectly crispy on the outside, with a tender and flavorful interior that simply melts in your mouth. The accompanying tahini sauce is rich and creamy, adding an extra layer to each bite. Their tabbouleh salad, packed with fresh herbs and veggies is also refreshing, perfect complement to the falafel. The staff is attentive. read more

YUM, YUM & YUM!! I've had The Falafel Place in my saved bookmark for quite some time but never had a chance to go. Today, my husband and I finished our shopping at Whole Foods and decided to walk over to the Falafel Place to pick up lunch. The Place is small but very clean, bright and cheerful. I ordered one eggplant pita and one falafel pita and my husband ordered two falafel pita (lunch for two days). The Falafel Place does not disappoint. The sandwich was fresh and delicious: crunchy fresh pickles, perfectly boiled eggs, and crunchy cabbage and a generous amount of roasted eggplant mixed with hummus, etc. The flavor was intense and sooo delicious. I'll try my best not to eat my other sandwich for a midnight snack... We're sorry we waited so long to try this place out. We can't wait to return. read more

The falafels? Crisp on the outside, nice and bright green on the inside. The pita? Warm, fluffy pillows of heaven. The hummus? Perfectly creamy and full of flavor. read more

I've ordered from the Falafel Place now a few times and I can report that they are consistently delicious! As a local business owner and vegetarian it's difficult to find really good vegetarian food in the area and Falafel Place fills that void. I highly recommend the Falafel Platter, the rice and lentils and the eggplant. The Falafel balls themselves are perfect. Crunchy on the outside, perfectly spiced and delicious. Pitas are fluffy and perfect. I just love everything! I'll be making this place a regular take out lunch spot. read more

Had their eggplant sandwich the other day for lunch and it was also fantastic! So tasty and flavorful with delicious tahini and pickles-the employee was very friendly when I arrived-placed the order on Chowhound and it was ready when I arrived! :) read more

I've so far tried several hummus plates, sandwiches, some of the labneh, tabouleh, and a couple of the soups, all of which were very good to great. The prices are fair as well and the staff has always been courteous in my experience. Today my order included some extra free falafel so I figured I would leave an appropriate review for this place. Wish them the best of luck so I can keep eating this great hummus right nearby read more

First time I visited this place. I love Falafel and it was the main reason I ordered to go Falafel sandwich and Falafel Meze. Both delicious and next time I definitely will order the sandwich again. read more

Best falafel I've had in Westchester and I've tried them all! Most places around here make their falafels beforehand and reheat them which leads to a hard, dry mess. The Falafel Place is fresh to order and all the ingredients are top quality. Love it! read more

Went here today for a falafel sandwich, it was delicious. Make sure the staff change their gloves after touching their phones.

Horrible service, hostile staff, saw a rat in their kitchen. Definitely do not recommend anyone eat their.

Simply the best falafel in Westchester; the freshest ingredients are used in the food is consistently delicious!! Excellent choice for Mediterranean/Turkish food!! You won't be disappointed! read more

Not great. I ordered hummus falafel, hummus mushrooms and shakshuka and it was all pretty disappointing. Granted, it was not a significant amount of food, but if a restaurant is going to offer hummus as a central part of a few dishes, it has to be better. The one thing that was okay was the pita. All in all, the food is edible and it's not pricey, but there's there's no way I'm going back. So, it shouldn't surprise anyone that I cannot recommend this place. read more

Busy lunch spot. Service was quick and people were very nice. As for the for the food, I was not so impressed. I Just had the falafel sandwich and it was just OK. Inside of falafel was very green and I was not crazy about the texture on the inside. read more
