Mister Falafel, home of some of the sweetest, friendliest, nicest folks I know of.
It had been a while since I last visited and for some reason I was craving some falafel. I was starving so I got a falafel plate, which is a good amount of food for $8.99.
One of the reasons I enjoyed the falafel here were that they weren't dry and gritty. The exterior was crisp and crunchy and the exterior moist and fluffy. It wasn't quite as good this time around as it seemed over fried. The outside of the falafel were too hard and the interior was dry. The flavors are still nice and balanced though and those pickles perked things up. The baba ghanoush was smooth and smoky and quite delicious with the pita.
The tahini as always was mild and creamy. No garlic paste this time around since I had meetings later that day…..bummer.
Not quite a fail, but not satisfying either……I'm hoping the next time, things will be as I recalled. I know the couple working here will still be gracious and friendly as always.
