Falafel King - Mediterranean restaurant in Brooklyn Center - 5500 Brooklyn Blvd, USA

Staff was friendly/ inviting, restaurant was very very clean and well put together. We picked up food to go, pics show a empty restaurant Friday evening but I assure you there was a steady flow of customers picking up online orders or using drive through.

Oh man this place is amazing guys the food incredible.... to have my kiddo order something else than a burger and love it is just beyond me. The owner of this place is also the cook which is the coolest most down to earth hardworking fella you will ever find and to say he's a good cook is not enough credit given.

Overall, it was just decent. There wasn't anything that really stood out as exceptional. I've had better tasting food from similar restaurants. It's one of those places that you either like or never go to. We took our food to-go after ordering some falafel's and a gyro plate. The only reason I'd probably go back is to eat it in the restaurant itself, because I understand taking it to-go and as it cools it might not taste the same as when it comes out hot. Otherwise, there's a lot of other places if I'm looking for gyro's and that similar type of food I'd rather eat at.

Amazing experience. Incredible food, fast service and kind treatment! I'm so glad we chose to get food from here on our way through! We were beyond happy with the flavors and the care put into our meal.

Clean, bright modern dining area serving fresh Middle Eastern fare. Decor features a local artist.

Wow. I came in fairly optimistic based on the positive reviews, but I couldn’t be prepared for how delicious this meal was going to be. I have had falafel several times before and never understood what the fuss was about. It always seemed kind of dry and bland to me. NOW I UNDERSTAND. You have to actually get good falafel. Tried the falafel burger here and was blown away by how flavorful and moist the patty was. Crispy on the outside, tender on the inside. Also tried a gyro and it too was incredibly fresh and had a nice depth of flavor. Even the fries were remarkable. They have this house spice they put on them that’s addictive. I wish they had a falafel king by my house. I have a feeling I’m going to be driving out to this one a lot.

I decided to check this place out after I’ve driven by it a couple of times & “Falafel” in “Falafel King” stood out. The staff were immediately friendly as I walked in. They explained what their menu items were that I had never heard of & didn’t make me feel as if they were uninterested in answering my questions. I got to sample the roasted potatoes which was fabulously delicious 😋. I ended up ordering the falafel 🧆 burger 🍔 & fries. It was phenomenal! I prefer my falafel extra crispy & the chef cooked it perfectly. Everything just blended so well together & perfectly seasoned. I suggest if you’re an onion fan, add onions to it. Thank me later 😄😋. It was so good, I had ordered it to go & didn’t make it out of the parking lot before eating it. I had to go back in to express how good it was to them. They laughed & thanked me. 🙏🏾 The place was also very clean & unkept. Can’t wait to come back & eat more of those roasted potatoes & falafel burgers. 10/10.✨

The food is fresh, tasty and authentic. Super delicious hot and delicious flavors. The staff were professional, kind and on point. Highly recommended!
