Falafel Hummus & Juice Bar

Picked up a vegetarian platter before work. Not sure if it’s on the menu but it has falafel, hummus, salad, mint yogurt, rice and pita. It was all amazing and the owner is very friendly and flexible with the menu as far as I could tell. Pretty small place but definitely a go-​to.

Best service amazing prices for fresh pressed juice owner is the nicest man always giving extra food etc

I ordered the chicken kabob platter.
The chicken was bone dry and had a very odd flavor, as if someone added way too many spices.
The side salad was ok–
It’s pretty difficult to mess up a combo of
olives/​tomato/​peppers.
The hummus was below mediocre.
My boyfriend had the lamb gyro, which was also really disappointing. It came with ground lamb and tasted like cinnamon.

I thought this place was great. The owner was extremely accommodating and the food was delicious.
I had stumbled upon this place while browsing Unilocal for a healthy salad in my neighborhood (you’d be surprised how hard it is). As soon as I saw Greek salad and hummus, I knew I was set. While this place is primarily take out, we figured that at 8pm on a Wednesday we wouldn’t have trouble snagging one of their 4 tables (three 2-​tops and 1 4-​top).
The owner was incredibly nice– he was super busy filling take out orders but stopped what he was doing when we came in and took our order. As we sat down we saw at least 4 people come in to pick up their take out (clearly, they are busy with their take out).
We ordered hummus to start, and it came out pretty quick. It came with olives, carrots, pita bread, and pita chips. Something I liked was the owner asked if we liked olives, because he wouldn’t have put them on if we didn’t (just felt like he went that extra step to be accommodating). The hummus was creamy, and well seasoned– definitely on the mild side, which was perfect.
As for our dinner, we ordered a lamb gyro and a small Greek salad with chicken. The gyro was HUGE– but the lamb was good perfectly, and the side salad was delicious. The Greek salad was also delicious– the chicken had that Mediterranean flavoring I craved (almost tasted like shawarma) and I also liked that the dressing (I’m pretty sure it was just tzatziki sauce) was on the side, and not slathered all over the salad.
To prove how great the owner was, I didn’t finish my whole meal– I had filled up way too much on the hummus. He asked, multiple times, if everything was okay, and said that it would be on the house if we didn’t like it. I had to assure him that I thought it was delicious, that I would be bringing the leftovers for lunch, and that we would be back. He also brought us complimentary tea on the house while we waited.

TIL falafel can go stale.
This is an okay place for what it is, hole in the wall falafel/​hummus/​random other foods place, but I realized about halfway through my falafel platter that this must have been either day old or made way earlier in the day and that they decided to get rid of it by dumping it on an unsuspecting Eat24 user. Should I victim-​blame myself because I eat late lunches? No, this is yet another example of the mistreatment of digital natives which, though still unbeknownst to most people, is beginning to surface as a serious form of discrimination against what should be a protected identity group. I suppose it began when parents began culturally appropriating our much loved and well established traditions by joining social media and texting us at all hours of the day and night, and it’s only culminated in a backlash against us and our device usage during every meal and all hours of the day and night.
Certainly expectations should be commensurate with the average experience a restaurant can deliver and I even decided to go below that upon my first visit and still ended up disappointed.
But I will say this: the work goes on, the cause endures, the hope still lives and the dream shall never die. My resolve is only strengthened and I will return. If i were to shun this place, then, as it is said, «they» would win. I will hold my head up high as I type my next order and hope for better.

I always pass this place on girard and I finally decided to give it a try. The owner was extremely friendly and even gave me a plate of mixed dips and pita while waiting for my to go order. We had the veggie platter, morning smoothie and falafel which were all very good! I will definitely return to this place in the future.

Orer was + 1 hr late. The reason was that they sent my order somewhere else. The driver though and the person who I spoke to did they best to make me happy, got me a free soda as well, even beside the fact that I don’t drink soda. Very nice of them and most likely saved them from getting 2 stars.
Food, I loved the olives and feta cheese. The chicken kebab platter was not as expected. Well chicken was teriyaki (I was expecting normal, might have been my mistake though for not reading it right). Vegetables were not high quality. Cherry tomato just exploded and spilled all over me: D .
Anyway, Im pretty sure that Ill order again, and this time I hope to be fully satisfied.

This place is near my office. They are so friendly! The food is cooked with love, it’s incredibly healthy, and soooo delicious! I never want this place to go away so please go and eat there now :)

The owner is very friendly and welcoming and always helps customers search and navigate the menu. The inside is very tiny but do not let that discourage you from tasting the food. Great to have a different diverse cuisine like falafel hummus in the city.

Do not order delivery because you will not get your food. Horrendous customer service and inability to serve customers. Ordered food at 6:40 pm and expected delivery time was 1 hour. At 8pm the food still hadn’t come and could not call the restaurant as it was already closed.

Stumbled along Falafel Hummus on Grub Hub and upon pick-​up that the location to be a bit of a hole in the wall. Prices were reasonable. They almost forgot to give us part of the order, but luckily I checked my bag before leaving. The Lamb Gyro’s were good, but a bit soggy. The pita here is also extra thin so that might be why. The Chicken Kabob platter was good for $ 9, the chicken was well seasoned but the salad wasn’t more than some shredded lettuce on the side. The hummus is very creamy and mild. Looks like this place might be worth trying again for take-​out. Their smoothies and other menu items look like more health conscious options than pizza.

I just tried this place last night when I wanted good takeout on a rainy day, but wanted something healthier and not heavy.
I ordered the chicken gyro and the vegetarian sampler and i loved both. The food was authentic and fresh and home cooked. The falafels are grilled instead of fried, and they are so well seasoned and moist and yummy. the hummus is creamy and good! the grape leaves are the best i’ve tried in philly.
The owner is so nice and hardworking! he threw in free baklava and pastries. can’t rave about this place enough!
We needed some middle eastern food in this area, and I’m so happy we got this place

Awesome little place and very authentic. When I went there to eat, there was one older gentleman, probably the owner that was making all the food. You get the vibes its family run and feel like you’re at home. Food was delicious too.

This was a lovely little hole in the wall find! And I really do mean a hole in the wall. It’s very tiny, two tables, one seats 4 while the other seats 2, but it’s still very nice. I can see that it may be better for takeout rather than sitting in. My friend and I tried the lamb gyro, an assortment of the appetizers and two of the smoothies. All of it was delicious! Very fresh and yummy! Would definitely order from here again. Was very filling, but you still felt good even after the large meal because there were so many fresh vegetables. There is just 1 person running the place/​cooking, so if you are sitting there may be a wee bit of a wait, but not unreasonable. The gentleman was very sweet and kind to me and my friend. :-D

The owner was very friendly and you can tell he cares about his customers. The food is also very authentic and interesting — definitely check it out if you’re up for something new!

Oh how my mouth watered for a Falafel sandwich and a smoothie, but I didn’t get that far. The person I spoke with on the phone was super rude, very impatient, and changed the price on one of my orders. First he said $ 2.75 for chips n hummus and then changed the price to $ 4.99. Sneaky… I end up canceling the order and before I could finish my statement the person hung up on me. All this restaurant gets from me is a bad review!

Ordered from here last Friday night. The hours on the Unilocal page are wrong. It says it closes as 9, but we called and they were still open and still accepting orders. We wouldn’t have known if we wouldn’t have called. The man who answered the phone (the owner I suppose) was very friendly and mentioned if they are busy they stay open.
The food was very fresh we ordered the Mediterranean appetizer. It came with a big portion of hummus, israeli salad, stuffed grape leaves and pita. Our order was ready quickly and the store called when it was all done and ready to be picked up. I really wish one of their platter options was grilled eggplant.
The store front is a little deceiving and I wouldn’t necessarily walk in from the street without knowing what people thought of the place. The only reason I decided to order from here was because of the high Unilocal rating. Because I live in the area and healthy options are hard to come by I will probably order from here again.

Wow! What secret gem. Stopped in here for lunch today for a fresh squeezed juice, turkish coffee, and a chicken kebab platter. The owner made me a beautiful complimentary plate of fresh hummus, salad, olives, roasted vegetables since it was my first time. The platter was delicious! It came with salad, pita bread, couscous, and roasted vegetables. I had enough leftover for another meal that I got wrapped up. The turkish coffee is a great way to start your day or get an afternoon pick me up. I’m excited to go back and try the baklava. Absolutely wonderful customer service.

Truly authentic middle eastern food in Fishtown. I drove up from Fairmount to grab lunch and it was worth it. The vegetarian mediteranean platter has everything if you can’t decide on one thing, plus included a serious helping of warm pita bread. I could’ve done without the olives, but that’s on me for not asking for no olives. The falafel balls were great, the hummus was delicious, and the stuffed grave leaves were great.
I got a fruit smoothie as well, and while it was a little on the small side (~12 oz.) it definitely tasted fresh.

What a delightful meal we had here! I got the Mediterranean sampler. A full plate of fresh vegetables and flavorful dips! Also notable was the great service, my man brought out water when I didn’t even ask, he just knew that I needed it. my friend got the lamb gyro, I tried it and it was very good. at the end of the meal, he gave us a fun orange candy. boy do I love an unexpected sweet treat. I will definitely come back here! I did not try the baklava, but it looked very enticing.
