This place had consistently shown high-quality good service, usually on time when you order carryout and while the prices have gone up, they're not completely out of sight definitely five stars. I really like the one guy who I'm not sure if he's the manager or what but when they open a store in Channahon he was gone for a while And I felt like I missed him a little bit because he did just a little better job than everybody else and now that the Channahon store is organized and running , he is back.He's a guy with a little beard and slightly gray hair, wears glasses, he's probably in his 50s really nice guy, do not know his name, but he's top shelf, and always make sure the stuff is properly in the bags, and ready to go and it's always a correct order for me. read more

Happy Falafel - Entrance - Middle Eastern Near Me - Plainfield, Illinois

My husband and I decided to check this place out today. We ordered a falafel pita, schwarma pita, 2 kibbeh, fries and two ZEN bottled, watermelon/strawberry drinks with basil seeds, my husband had to pay extra for sauces. The food was delicious and the falafel was fantastic. We were a fan of everything but the sauces. I also think customer service can improve to where customers feel more welcomed and employees have more optimistic and helpful attitudes instead of being so dismissive and kind of rude. read more

Happy Falafel never misses. I got the chicken kabob bowl and it was amazing! The chicken was super flavorful and tender, the rice was perfect, and that white sauce on top just makes it all hit even harder. The little salad on the side adds a nice fresh crunch too. Definitely recommend!! read more

Happy Falafel - Chicken Kabob Bowl - Middle Eastern Near Me - Plainfield, Illinois

My family recently came here for a dinner for take out. The reviews of this place were very well received so we gave it a chance. Staff was friendly, took our order and it wasn't too long until we were ready to go. The chicken shwarma was absolutely delicious and filling. Prices here are fair. Surprised there wasn't anybody here at all. There's construction around here, so don't let that deter you. Overall, great restaurant worth checking out! read more

BEWARE!!!!! I got FOOD POISONING, and when I asked for my money back, they asked me for a letter from my Dr( which I provided a few days later). They then refused to give me my money back even though I returned most of my leftovers. It was horrible! Eat at your own risk!!! read more

Some of the best food in the area. Place was spotless clean and the service was friendly. read more

Happy Falafel - Chicken Shawarma Bowl and an order of Falafel's - Middle Eastern Near Me - Plainfield, Illinois

Food was delicious, super tasty and clean. Great service from Matt, will definitely be back!

Great service and environment. Food is really authentic. If you like Mediterranean food give this one a try.

Check out Pharrell's favorite place to get falafel and Middle Eastern food. Happy Falafel puts a smile upon my face upon biting into some of the crispy stuff. It has plenty of choices for vegetarians. Fairly good prices on most of the items. They also have combos where you can save even more. I came to get carryout. It has falafel of course along with other classic Middle Eastern favorites. The first time here I had to get the namesake. Get falafel a few ways and none are bad. These come in pitas or on salads. It's $6 for a pretty decent pita. This comes with hummus and Jerusalem salad. Falafel was crispy without being burnt. The hummus was creamy and the Jerusalem salad had good seasoning and added a lot. Along with falafel are some other things worth giving a shot such as hummus. It comes on the pita so it's good with something or even on it's own. There's also common Middle Eastern favorites such as shawarma. read more

Happy Falafel - Falafel Pita - Middle Eastern Near Me - Plainfield, Illinois

The chicken schawarma pita was delicious. I wish they had a spot in Springfield it's a must stop for Chicago

The food here is very tasty. I stop by here after dropping off or picking up my dry cleaning. So, it is a convenient place to grab a delicious bite while doing errands. I think I have had everything here at least once and it's all been good. Service is good. Never a complaint, but nothing ever stands out. The ambiance is very much fast food meets Mediterranean food. read more

Amazing food, seasoned very well. Staff are nice and clearly hardworking. Recommend this for your schwarma cravings. My only complaint is they don't open earlier! read more

Delicious and fast middle eastern food that make your belly feel like you made a really healthy choice! The place is clean and the portions are fairly large (i.e., if you're really hungry this will fill you up; if you're looking for a light lunch, you'll have left overs). We've ordered three times and outside of one error in my order (which was still delicious), I'm putting Happy Falafel on regular rotation. *NOTE: I agree with Yelper, @Rachel Z., that once the stay-at-home order hit, this site had myriad problems. My wife and I stopped by a few times hoping they'd be open or at least provide information about online/phone ordering only to be left with more questions. At one point we gave up thinking the restaurant had gone under, but then people started talking and posting again and we finally had a chance to visit. During this initial reopening the staff refused to wear masks, but as of my last visit in October 2020, we were happy to see they'd signed on to the requirement. read more

Was told by the manager to "be careful" with the red chilli sauce, as he was worried because people had left negative reviews because of the spice of the red chilli or because of how it made their stomach feel. This red chilli sauce is one of the most delicious red chilli sauces I've ever had. The owner/workers are very kind and helpful, and the food is delicious. This place is a great, and I recommend it to anyone in or visiting the area to give this place a try ! read more
