Upper West Side Falafel - Istanbul

I dined at this restaurant last week. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive. The menu clearly marked vegan options and the staff pointed out which sauces were vegan-friendly. The food was both affordable and delicious.

The employees are extremely welcoming and they offer three vegan choices featuring falafel!

This restaurant specializes in serving falafel, which is quite delicious considering the type of establishment it is. Their frozen falafel can be found in most large supermarkets. It's unfortunate that they also offer meat dishes. Additionally, their onion rings are not suitable for vegans.

My favourite is the falafel wrap. Their chips are pretty good. The staff is friendly and they know about veganism. The prices are good, they also offer discounts for students.

Just try them alone with no pitta/wrap to taste all different flavours within. Little hummus and parsley topping would not hurt : I asked the secret recipe and found out that they not just blend ingredients but use a mincing machine to grind everything. Turns out they also mix green pepper and parsley together with typical ingredients of falafel. You can also buy frozen falafel in a package to cook at home. A kilo is 12 liras. (4 euro
