Falafel Lovers Vadodara

Best mediterranean food in Vadodara. We had the family platter with garlic hummus and garlic peta. The taste was really authentic and delightful. The mushroom Manakish had a very unique flavour, which we enjoyed. We also had to order the Cheese Kunafa multiple times as we just fell in love with it. The service was also great as the waiter patiently prepared the falafel in front of us. Highly recommended.

Amazing Food, Great Ambience. Lots of different options Available. The Pesto Pizza was Fabulous, also must try the Quesadilla as well.

A Delightful Arabic Culinary Experience at Falafal. I recently had the pleasure of dining at Falafal, a charming falafel restaurant that offers an authentic taste of Arabic cuisine. The ambiance, with its rustic brick walls and warm wooden furniture, immediately set a cozy and inviting tone for the meal. The food was nothing short of spectacular. The star of the table was undoubtedly the basket of freshly made flatbreads, perfectly golden and topped with herbs and a glistening drizzle of olive oil--a delightful complement to the spread of dishes. The falafel itself was crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and bursting with flavor, served alongside a variety of accompaniments. There were bowls of vibrant salads, creamy dips (likely tahini or hummus), and rich, savory stews that rounded out the meal with an authentic Arabic flair. Each bite felt like a celebration of spices and tradition. The portion sizes were generous, and the presentation was simple yet elegant, making the dining experience feel both hearty and refined. The service was attentive, and the overall atmosphere made it a perfect spot for a casual yet memorable meal. I highly recommend Falafel to anyone craving delicious, authentic Arabic food. It's a must-visit for falafel lovers and anyone looking to explore the rich flavors of the region. I can't wait to return and try more from their menu!

This review is from a foodie, so don't take the criticisms too seriously. For the price, the food is pretty good, but here are some things future visitors should know- Starters Lebanese Croquettes They were crispy and filled with spinach, and; they didn't at all taste like spinach (much better). They were a bit oily, so it would've been better if the oil was soaked up with tissue/ served on top of kitchen tissue. Drinks and Desserts Classic Hot Chocolate- This was great. Tasted nice and looked good too. Hazelnut Frappe Coffee- It was just okay. It was too sweet and watery (no cream added), with basic froth for presentation. They should ask about sweetness before serving. There were no hazelnuts inside the frappe, just hints of flavor. Sizzling Brownie with ice cream- The chocolate and sizzle were on point, but the brownie was too spongy and not dense enough (texture felt like cake with extra soda, but tasted on point). The ice cream-brownie combo had a slightly odd taste; maybe they could try a different ice-cream brand. A pineapple slice under the brownie would've been a nice touch but isn't necessary. Main course Family Meal (Lebanese) The Lebanese food was great! The sour cream, falafel, pita, tahini, and hummus were all perfect--5-star quality. But for me personally, the veggie mix had too much cucumber. It made things a bit watery, which i am not a fan of, but everyone else was fine with it; and some even liked it. If you don't want the excess cucumber, tell them when you order. The veggie portion was more than enough to go with the pita, which was good. They do fill in the pita with dips and veggie-mix and serve it. The pricing for extras felt off. One plain pita costs rs 50, but a garlic pita costs rs 90. That's a big difference. If you upgrade to garlic pita in the combo, it costs rs 50 each (compared to rs 40 otherwise). For a family meal, upgrading with garlic pita adds rs 200, making it's total rs 1050 before tax. It feels like garlic pita was substantially overpriced; should be fairer. Pesto Pasta The pesto sauce was too runny, and the penne was a bit overcooked. It's better than what you'd get at fast food places but not as good as high-end restaurants. There was too much broccoli stem (Rs 30 extra) compared to the florets. Garlic Veg Exotica Sizzler It came with French fries, veggies, cooked garlic and spaghetti. The spaghetti wasn't good- it was too thick and tasted more like Thai food, similar to Burmese Khow Suey; hence didn't fit the dish. Ours was a little too salty; everyone noticed it but still ate it. On the other hand, the Lebanese dish was low on salt, which some people didn't like. Hopefully, they can fix this. Seating and Ambience The seating was mostly comfy, and the AC worked well. But upstairs, only three chairs had flat bottoms. The rest had wire bases with rope wrapped around them, which might not feel great to sit on. The lights were a bit dim for some people, but they fit the theme. The music didn't exactly match the vibe it had a bit too many Punjabi and Hindi songs for my liking. The speakers are a bit crooked, and can be fixed (sound is not a problem). A higher ratio of Middle Eastern music would be better. Service The service was okay but not perfect. The serving speed was slower than I'd like. There was an unexpected delay between arrival of the sizzling brownie and that of the plates. Even the dessert plates were brought out in two rounds. Things to Note- There's only a hand washing area near the open kitchen. If you need a proper washroom, you can use the one at Southa (just next door; same owner). It's small but tidy. The cutlery and the place were clean. Had a billing issue veggie addon for pasta. I was charged rs 40 instead of rs 30, but they fixed it when pointed out. Pizza might be worth trying out. Discount- using Swiggy dineout- 20% with prebooking + 10% on top trynew coupon. TL;DR- Final Ratings Lebanese food: 5 / 5 Other cuisines: 3 or 4 / 5 Service: 3 or 4 / 5. Overall- 4 / 5 The Lebanese food from falafel lovers is worth trying out!

I was quite surprised that I haven't been to this place even though it has been in town for a long time. Absolutely great food if you want authenticity.

The food is really good with variety of Mediterranean food option , staff is really good , just there lighting is very deem on upper portion seating. Overall it's amazing place for one to try Mediterranean food!

A great place for falafel lovers, genuinely their falafel was full of flavours and the dip given with it , was the cherry on top! Whereas the pizza we tried was veggie supreme, they can work on that base a bit but otherwise a complete 9/10 And I would definitely recommend the hazelnut frappe here . Service is good enough, and ambience is dimly lit . A must try place for sure!

The service is somewhat quick and they have many middle eastern variety. They must keep a check on combination served like with garlic falafel they served the garlic hummus with was good in taste but the garlic in both was very much overpowering. The owners are nice and very much hospitable. U can customise ur food accordingly to ur taste and they will be happy to do that. It's a must try for middle eastern food.
