This place will change your life. I used to sling Falafel in two separate establishments and people don't realize: there's a lot that can go wrong. Others have mentioned the small size of the falafel balls, but that's kinda the secret sauce here. The smallness makes it so you can have an extra crunchy outside, with a just done enough inside, that is still moist without feeling underdone. Any larger and you'd have a weird mix of crunchy on the outside tough on the outer half and not done at all in the center. If they were smaller, they'd be too tough through and through. I also feel compelled to mention the depth of flavor achieved by the babaganoush. This is magical. Now, I make my own baba at home, so I know how difficult it can be to get the balance right. This place has nailed it. The hummus is divine and bursting with flavor. The tahini is gorgeous. The flavors of the meats (I tried both the chicken and had an à la carte side of the lamb roll) -- they have managed to make them completely complex--you get the feeling that they slow cooked it all for hours...locking in juicy smokiness that will make you say mmmmm and fill yourself ridiculously full because you can't stop eating it. Nor would you want to. On a personal note, as an Ashkenzai Jew, who has been very unfortunately landlocked in the worst place for our people: Southern Idaho for 2.5 years, this place felt like a breath of fresh air. Speaking of which, the open air patio in the back with plenty of flowering plants, overlooking the water, is such a fun yet tranquil setting. The guys are so kind as well, and made me feel like family. Just walking in and hearing the music, I felt uplifted. And then talking with them...just felt like chatting with old friends. They are simply crushing the hospitality piece. Don't sleep on FalafelLove. read more

Order at the counter Small dining space inside, but there is an awesome sitting place place out back with the view of a small boat landing. If you sit in back, they will call your name and you can pick it up from the window. When you order your meal, you can have it as a plate or as a wrap ($1 off). The falafel was well done and had a good flavor. The balls were a little on the small side but the dish overall is filling. Same with the chicken. Note the meal does not come with Pita unless you get a wrap, but you will need to purchase a it as a side if you want it with your meal. Good customer service. read more

This place is awesome! The 2 guys working were awesome too. The food was healthy and delicious. You could tell they genuinely care about serving good quality food and service. We ate here with our kids and they were so kind to the kids too and if we ever came back to eureka we would definitely be back read more

Stopped here for lunch today. We really enjoyed the food. The owner was very friendly and overall it was a great experience!

Just passing through and found this little gem. Stopped in for a quick bite and was very happy . Usually skeptical of 5 star joints but this restaurant did not disappoint. You can get a filling and delicious meal for under $20. Tried both the combo and kebab plates and 6 different sides - loved every bite. Loads of flavor. Only caveat is maybe not great for kids and picky eaters cuz it's not pizza and mac n cheese here. Would definitely stop by again when passing through. read more

This place was Amazingly delicious with absolutely wonderful customer service. It is an unassuming little space, but filled with love and flavor. Every single bite was prepared fresh and with FOUR sides on a plate, oh wow! We especially loved the crispy felafel, the creamy hummus, the beets and the cauliflower, and the dolmas too. You cannot go wrong here - it was all delicious!! Thanks so much - Debbie from Phoenix read more

I found this place through Yelp. I love supporting small businesses. I ordered a hodgepodge of food items. All were very delicious! Don't leave without getting the Malabi dessert! It's very refreshing! I spoke with the owner and he makes you feel like you are at his home. So friendly and kind. I told him I was visiting the area so him and his colleague gave me some tips on what to do in the area. I definitely recommend! read more

This place was a fun surprise! We found via Google on our way to Crescent City. Amazing Greek food, made with love! Everything is homemade and fresh! I had the chicken special with 4 side dishes. The pita bread is a must! read more

Phenomenal authentic food made with love and fresh ingredients. The majority of the menu is Celiac safe (yeah me!) and vegan. The onions are to die for, as are the beets, saffron rice and grilled chicken. Check out the back deck seating, overlooking the canal.

The make the best falafels on the North Coast. They're a bit of a hidden gem, as they are located in King Salmon. A little bit of a trip out of Eureka, but well worth the drive. Food is flavorfully robust with herbs and spices perfectly balanced. Melts in your mouth...so good!!! Not only does it taste great but it's also healthy--you can't beat that combination. Staff was knowledgeable and friendly as well. read more

Service: they were so nice, friendly and welcoming and more than willing to answer questions and chat. Ambiance: super chill and friendly. 1000% going back here and brining everyone I know. read more

We devoured our falafel wrap and chicken plate. The 8 sides that came with our order were all delicious and fresh. Falafel was being made by hand when we arrived. The Malabi dessert was our first try and wish we got two! We dined out in the patio by the water. The only thing is, we ordered medley of pickles and menu listed variety of middle eastern pickles and olives. We were served with 2 dill pickles that weren't that authentic (and olives). Aside from that, we'd still eat here once a week if we didn't live 5 hours away. read more

This place is incredible. Not only is the food delicious but the staff are warm, friendly and genuinely want to explain their menu so that you fully understand it all. They are true to their name, I could taste the love they put into everything. Order the onions, mom's cabbage and beets!! Those were my favorite!! read more

Everything was so so good! My friends and I were on a road trip up the coast and decided to stop here. We got the chicken special, Moroccan fish, and the lamp kebab plates all with various sides. It was a great deal, service was quick, and all the entrees and sides were so fresh and delicious. The owner is incredibly welcoming and recommended some great picks. He even gave us the rose water custard dessert for free just for coming! I'd recommend if anyone is in the area and is looking for a place for yummy and fast eats, I would highly recommend. It's worth the trip out for sure. read more

I was craving some Mediterranean food and this place was everything I wanted and more. We got the chicken wrap with double cabbage, carrots, and hummus as well as a baharat kebab plate with medi pico, babaganoush, peppers, and green zchug. Everything was so fresh, flavorful, and just the right amount of heat! I got a zatar pita on the side, and I have never had a pita as fluffy. It was wonderful. I tried the dolmas and they were very tasty as well. Sometimes dolmas can taste a little metallic, but these did not. Just delicious grape leaf and rice. Overall, 10 out of 5 stars! read more

While on my morning walk, my walking buddy told me that she has enjoyed eating at FalafalLove in King Salmon. I hadn't heard of it before, but was interested to check it out. After reading the Yelp Reviews, my husband and I decided to get it for an early dinner. We drove to the restaurant and ordered the food to go. We came home to eat it while watching the second playoff football game. We ordered the falafel plate and chicken plate. We each chose our four sides but then divided the falafels and chicken at home. The food is absolutely delicious! The spices make the fresh veggies and interesting sides along with the pita bread taste like heaven. The owner was really nice too. We will definitely add this gem to our go-to places. read more
