Yesterday I had a Pita Falafel here. Yummie! Since I wasn't even that hungry I couldn't finish it, but it tasted goohood. I thought it was a shame we couldn't eat our meal on the terrace, since it was still such beautiful weather around 22.00.
Busy store - usually with small groups of conversationalists and students (OK I will admit I fit into this range sometimes..). Yummy food in a decent price range. The service is prompt but not pushy. I like their falafels, grills and hummus although I am usually not that harsh a critic for these types of foods. If you sit by the window, expect some gawkers!
The food is really quite good, especially in this price-range. I'm not a big fan of the interior, but that's admittedly rather subjective. For a quick bite I recommend the Tortilla Schoarma.
food is normally really good and especially for tourists it's something new. the service is indeed really slow
Fair enough, my second visit was far better than the first. So now they have a 3 star average from me.
Best falafel in town? Mine certainly wasn't.
The pita and other ingredients were okay, but the falafel themselves were soft and very disappointing.
Some of the best falafel in town. I mostly order the vegetarian plate and am usually quite happy with it, the atmosphere and staff are second rate though.
been there a couple of times now with my flatmate as we live around the corner, and i usually have the falafel teller or plate depending on how hungry i am ;) the falafel itself is very good, you get 4 diffrent types of salad, some humus and this red whatever thingy i dont now what it is :)
when it's warm it's great to sit outside, as there are not so many cars passing by. sitting inside i don't really mind, and i never had the feeling that my clothes smelled like falafel afterwards (though my burps did).
the service is a good example for this sort of "overun" restaurants. people will still go there and get a falafel because they like it so much, i think that's why they don't really care about the service. the Café Latte would be another good example - shitty service, but it's always hard to find a table there.
in the end i'd say it's worth checking the place out, especially when you're into falafel ;)
Let's face it, this place is way past its prime. Shoddy interiors, horrible service, good-to-average food. And you smell like Falafel if you sit inside for too long.
the 3rd-best falafel in town in my opinion but still really good. it sometimes disturbs me a little bit that you smell like a schnitzel after you sat insode their restaurant but i still go there from time to time mainly because of this most awesome lime juice drink they offer.
"the best falafel in town" - what else could I write?
really good, very plumply filled falafel-pita sandwich for a fair price.
if you don't want to smell like a falafel yourself, try to get a seat outside. ;) and you should have some time, the waiter was a little lame.
I love the falafel sandwich (my favorite in Vienna so far) which I also don't find expensive. I don't bother with the less than ideal service and take the sandwich to go.
Yummy food, not the cheapest place to go, but one of the best alternatives to McDonalds and the pizzaplaces @Maria Hilfer Straße
kind of pricey but the falafels are very very good.
I'd give their falafel five stars (as far as falafel goes in Vienna) but their service would get one star; so that averages to three stars, right?
It's only been a rare occaision that I've been there and their wait staff didn't need a serious attitude adjustment. I bear their less-than-ideal service only because the food is good.
Maschu is now offering mega-quick takeout service at their neighboring hole-in-the-wall carryout counter. Since Yasin Falafel has closed, Maschu is again the best choice for falafel. If you're acquainted with pita style sandwiches like Maoz in Amsterdam, then you'll enjoy Maschu. They have a fairly lengthy menu including stir-fry veggies with tofu, an amazing lentil soup and various meat dishes.
Maschu is famous in Vienna for it's takeaway falafel sandwich. Maschu stuffs their falafel sandwiches full of tahini, falafel, veggies (including kraut) and various sauces, all for less than 3,50 EUR each. They have quite a few vegetarian and vegan options in addition to their falafel sandwich (try their hummus!) and their prices are pretty reasonable (but getting higher every 6 months it seems).
Their service is a bit lacking sometimes, so if it looks busy and you actually want some service, it's probably better for you to turn around and head somewhere else
gallounbequem, schlechte und viel zu laute musik, und das falafel..das schmeckt doch wie ein gewöhnliches standlfalafel. und irgendwie sind die kellner sehr aufdringlich in eine gewisse richtung, grade dass sie einen nicht verzahn. nur wenn man mit einem mann hingeht hat man dort seine ruhe vorm wohl ausgehungerten kellnerpack. einzig die linsensuppe is so ziemlich die beste die ich bis jetzt gegessen hab in wiener lokalen.
