Great falafel, but don't go at noon unless you like standing in long lines. The crisp outside and grainy inside texture of the falafel itself rivaled it's deep flavor, with a good helping of tahini to really accentuate the sesame that contrasted nicely with the pickled peppers and veggies adding a nice extra crunch. I also asked for chili sauce which was a nice balance of chili, garlic and a bit of creaminess that must come from either a mayo or perhaps hummus proportion. The only slightly less than memorable aspect of this falafel wrap was the flatbread that turned from a dry wrap to a doughy and chewy almost gummy wrapper by the time I got down to the end. Perhaps it's my fault for taking my time to eat it. But I was also eating another falafel from a competing tent up the street to do a side by side, bite by bite comparison. After the comparison, I can clearly see the advantages for a cylindrical wrap as opposed to a flatter pita configuration - more evenly distributed ingredients for a more consistent combination of flavors for each bite, better balance, better texture combination, easier and less messy to eat. Also, I have to respect a man who eats the food he serves up for others as his own meal!
Really delicious wraps, the lines can get a bit long but they move very quickly so it isnt a problem. The staff are always very nice and the portions are generous for the price, particularly when considering the location. I look forward to getting lunch here as often as I can.
The staff are great and always friendly and I really like that they just concentrate on making falafel wraps and doing it to perfection. The hummus is fresh, grilled aubergines, salad and freshly made falafel balls fried at the stall. Really amazing food and a great price, it's top of my list for lunch in Soho.
