Peter J.

WTFalafel was an unexpected win. In a city where good kabobs aren't exactly everywhere, this spot delivers. The service was genuinely welcoming, the food tasted fresh, and the kabobs were cooked perfectly. Juicy, tender, and full of flavor. Seasoning Alley in City of Montrose is still my personal favorite, but when I want something closer, WTFalafel absolutely gets the job done. No need to over-explain. It's worth the visit.

Came in on a Monday around 5:30pm. We were seated right away. Our server was friendly and helped us make our selection's . We ordered the toum (garlic dip)- absolutely to DIE FOR for garlic lovers-hummus with pita bread, the Beirut sampler. The beef swarma was delicious served with hummus and tahini. Thank you it was so delicious. This is a definite MUST GO when in the mood for Lebanese food.

Hidden gem!! I got a sampler of a good amount of their food. I got the baba ganoush which is one of the best I've had. The falafels were crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. I really loved the texture. All the meats were delicious and flavorful. I ate in and my only complaint why its a 4 star and not 5 is the wait time for my food. It took almost 40 mins for my food to come out. Only the baba ganoush came out at a decent time. I would order take out next time to avoid the wait since I really liked the food.

A wonderful hidden gem, the food is exceptional, the service is super friendly and [[HIGHLIGHT]]the vibes are immaculate[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Huge portions and their special drink is one of the most unique I've tasted.

Food was not good at all. Old meat, rancid dressing. Slow service, and no one was there

#16 WTGyros and the drink is called Zeina's drink. The drink is house made.

[[HIGHLIGHT]]First and foremost the owner Zeina is amazing she sets the ambiance for the place !!![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food is a lot they don't shy away from giving you the most to eat. The service is great. The continuity of care they give the guests is unmeasurable. It's my number one spot for Gyros. I always leave there full and happy.

Mary S.

First time here. Customer service was excellent. The server was very attentive and super friendly. The chicken shawarma is delicious and full of flavor. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It is clean and comfortable.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I will definitely come back if I am in the area.

Kenneth L.

Not bad, comparable to Fufu's, Georgie's, etc. I do think WTFalafel consistently has the best falafels (it's in their name!), but their other food is around the same level for somewhat higher prices. I ordered the chicken wrap, and the chicken looks a little sad, to be honest. Compare that to the falafel wrap, which looked and tasted way better. Also, their side chicken is not a good value. It's just one kabob, deconstructed. You're better off getting a plate!

Lisa Z.

First tine here service was awesome, food was amazing definitely will be going back everything was fresh, stuffed grape leaves fire, baklava so delish, my main entree was so good the garlic spread to die for

Barbie D.

this time it was really fresh like the first time i remember the taste, yummy and soft. this is the only place I always ordered for myself. Thanks

Erick M.

DELICIOUS FOOD!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! My friend who grew up in Lebanon recommended this place and it did not disappoint Food: Beirut Beef Kebab & Tour of Beirut Combo which both were delicious 5/5 (see pictures) Ambiance 4/5: they have historic landmarks painted along the walls of the restaurant which added to the ambiance and felt really welcoming Service: the staff was very and attentive 5/5 HIGHLY RECOMMEND if you're in the mood for some good Mediterranean food

Dominique Z.

Really tasty & fresh every time we order. We love going here for a zesty meal that is cooked to order. The staff is always very friendly and [[HIGHLIGHT]]they have a rad atmosphere if you choose to eat inside too.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

Christina K.

Food 5/5 Service 5/5 Ambiance 3/5 Unassuming gem in the corner of the plaza. Indoor seating only. Ambiance isn't anything special but this place is fast food with good quality. Been here a couple of times and their food is consistently fresh with good portions and reasonable prices (approx $20 a plate) I get the chicken plate and it comes with a good amount of protein and the chicken is juicy and seasoned well. It's over a bed of rice and comes with hummus and pita bread . It also comes with a small side of salad but I love veggies so I always order an extra order of the side salad and it makes for the perfect meal. Will be back

Food was delicious. As for meats, we had the lamb kabobs and beef which was tender and tasty. The hummus tastes fresh and honestly was the best I've had. The garlic sauce/paste was the first time for me but complimented the meats really well. Rice was aromatic and tasted wonderful. Would definitely visit again... read more

Ok so I'm feeling pretty good because I was at Joe's full bar pizza which is already on my A+ list because everyone is great and hot. I got the falafel salad and the beruit plate and i was SO SURPRISED about how awesome it is. I mean don't get me wrong? I crave the Blue Hawaiian from Joe's because it's unique to Pizza in moval, but this place having legit Mediterranean food out of nowhere that some of the best stuff I've ever had? GTFO! Anyway, get over there and drive past whatever is going on at the 7-12 and get you some of the best new food in the IE. Hummus yes, falafel yes, garlic butter or whatever (toum my wife tells me) yes, meat popsicles yes. read more

The meat was tender, juicy, and well-seasoned, which was the highlight of the meal. The rice had good flavor, but unfortunately it wasn't fully cooked, which took away from the experience a bit. The food also took a while to come out, so be prepared for a longer wait. One downside for me was the pita bread. It was very dry and hard, and not enjoyable at all. Another concern was the open kitchen. While the area looked clean overall, I did notice the cook using the same gloves to prepare food and then handle items that didn't appear clean, which was a little off-putting. Overall, Yafa Cuisine has good flavors and generous portions, but a few quality and cleanliness details kept it from being a higher rating.

Let's break it down: -Staff is friendly and helpful but service is slow - Food is just ok and is pricey for what you get - A gyro, fries and a water was almost $20! - They do have plenty of seating inside and the interior is basic and relatively clean. They give you a tiny container of tzatziki on the side for your gyro which does nothing for the gyro. There is no additional sauce other than that small side they give you. It's pretty dry and needs more. They do give you a nice amount of meat but the taste is mediocre at best. The fries are good and were freshly made. If I'm paying $20 for this meal, I expect more in terms of quality and taste.

The food arrived on time, the order was correct, and it came all the way from Riverside. I'm not sure on the ambiance because I had the food delivered. As for the food, i opted for the combo plate. It came with 3 pieces of steak, chicken, and 1 Kefta kabob, rice, 2 sides, and pita bread. They have a lot of sides to choose from but I don't like that there's an up charge to substitute salad for rice so I got the rice. I love that they allow you to select how you want your beef cooked. I ordered Medium and it was cooked perfectly. The kefta kabob was well seasoned and packed full of Mediterranean spices (delicious). The chicken was full of flavor, cooked all the way through and tender. The rice was full of flavor. I've never had Mediterranean food with rice like this. You may or may not like it. I enjoyed the extra flavor than just having white rice. The tabbouleh was fresh and gave my meal some brightness. The pita bread was a disappointment for me. You could tell it's store bought or not freshly made. You can taste the flour or starch on it. It was dry and not good. It reminded me of the Pita bread in the bakery section of food4less. The other disappointing element to my meal was the cucumber yogurt (tzatziki) I don't like that the cucumber was cubed and it was watery. It lacked that cucumber flavor and it appeared to be prepared watered down intentionally. It was even lacking that tart yogurt taste because it was so thinned out. Overall, it was still a fairly good meal. I would suggest making or buying better pita bread. I would be willing to try it again because the meat was delicious and I'd get hummus instead of the cucumber yogurt.

You can really see the effort with getting grass-fed beef along with avoiding seed oils in their cooking. Stepping inside the restaurant, it immediately took me as if we were in the wild west but elevated. It's really beautiful inside and very rustic. We went ahead and ordered the sirloin and the mac and cheese. Both were awesome. The sirloin had a chew, but was super juicy. It came out medium rare, just like what we requested. Loved the carrots and mashed potatoes that came with it. The chimichurri sauce was killer. The mac and cheese was a great starter and came with a lot of bacon in it. For dessert, the brownie with vanilla ice cream was fantastic. It wasn't too sweet and I loved the contrast with the hot brownie and cold ice cream. It's also gluten free! Service was super sweet.

The reviews were outstanding, so i decided to order a box to-go to share with my bf. And IT DID NOT DISAPPOINT. Yes, it's a little pricey but everything is so well seasoned!

The server had a thick accent but he was very attentive & helped us on the questions we had. I'm not even from the area but I'll be back to try some of their other popular items! FYI - you can bring a bag of chips and they will load it up with your choice of meat, garlic sauce, tahini sauce, fresh veggies, and cheese for $10! As advertised on their truck.

First of all, the servers well all friendly to us non-Spanish speaking customers. Restroom was readily available. Julia helped us order what we specifically want and explained the menu well. My husband is not eating much carbohydrates so Julia wisely recommended a Veggie Burrito with extra order of meat so make sure his burrito is not loaded with beans and rice. The portions were perfect for the value of what we paid for. Personally, for me, the guacamole and chips was the best I've ever had. We eat a lot of Mexican food but the quality, texture and flavor of the chips was exceptional. Maybe it's the lard but I truly don't care, it's the best!!

I'll be honest, the food still tastes good and that's the only reason I'm not going lower. But other spots in the area are starting to pull ahead because they get both the flavor and the execution right. Hopefully they fix this because the potential is definitely there.
