Falafel sandwiches and locally made drinks and paletas - Edit
This place has outstanding falafel sandwiches. They are dressed with a delicious mixture of red cabbage and other vegetables and presented very nicely. They are easy to eat by hand. Their green habanero sauce compliments the sandwiches. Portions are good. Try the paletas.

Super hearty! - Edit
The food was delicious! We ordered a Full Plate and was a great serving size for to share between two. I love a good falafel and this did the trick for me. Falafel was covered in wonderful parsley. My non-vegan husband said it was the best falafel he had ever had. The salad was my favourite part, the tomato was juicy and the cucumber added just the right about of refreshment. The potato chips and pita bread were the perfect addition. I agree with a previous reviewer that the hummus was bit bitter but mixed in with everything, it was beautiful! The sitting was perfect for two people. Staff were friendly and food came out fast.

Good option for falafels. Small place with a few seating options, open air with fans, no AC so keep that in mind.

Nice falafel - Edit
I’m not the biggest falafel fan in general so I’m not the best judge but it was nice food to takeaway and eat by the sea😄

A wonderful lunch! - Edit
This is a wonderful falafel place. The pitas used to serve the falafels were so soft and fresh tasting. The falafels themselves tasted freshly made and delicious. The place is very small which made it difficult for us to find. Google maps told us we were standing on top of it and we still couldn’t see it. But with a little persistence we made it and it was so worth it. In the attached picture, the chalk sign on the wall is the only indication that you’ve made it to the right place.

Great Falafel! - Edit
Small mom and pop shop, walkable from Playa Del Carmen’s main tourist zone (5th st), serving great falafel plates. They are a fully vegan place.

Good for a snack - Edit
I ordered the „half falafel“…was really tasty and freshly prepared. I have a lot of vegan options and I think it’s a good place for a snack.
Read moreThe only think is that the place isn’t so cozy to spend longer time and they have a limited drinking menu. No coffee for example…overall I would recommend this place for the food. Maybe as a takeaway next time:-)
Pros: Delicious Food, Friendly service, Many vegan options
Cons: Restaurant is not so comfy

Cheap and delicious - Edit
Small place and despite two staff on duty, service was slow and they seemed very uninterested. However, the price is really good for such a touristy area, and the falafel plate and pita were very tasty. It's also nice that you can order just half a pita if you're not very hungry.
Read morePros: Tasty food, Very fair price, Good sauces
Cons: Service wasn't great, Place could do with a bit of a clean

Not sure what all the fuss is about… - Edit
The food was good but I’ve definitely had better falafel elsewhere! Maybe this is the best falafel in the area which is why everyone raves about it so much?
