Super gem!! One of the best falafel sandwich around Providence and Boston area! Whenever We are in Providence, We stop in at East Side Pockets and every single time I go, I am astonished at how good their food is. You can't beat it for Lebanese type food. Their falafels are like no other l've had they are so airy fluffy inside and nice crisp outside shaped like a doughnut never seen that before lol. The menu has a wide variety of middle eastern foods and the prices are very reasonable. Falafel wrap with everything was freshly delicious. Family owned. Super nice people!! 100% recommend!

Good value, good food, and large servings! This is a good healthy alternative if you’re on a budget and live in Providence. They also have baklava! There’s a long line during peak lunch and dinner hours but it moves fast. Limited seating in the store but the food is packed to go anyway. This is a good go-to place for us since our Son is vegetarian and there’s plenty of options at this place. Enjoy!

first time coming in here, it was fantastic. the chicken kabob wrap was incredible. all the ingredients were so fresh and flavorful. the hummus is to die for. (order extra) && the guy who made it all was an absolute delight. 10/10 have been back 3 times the last week.

-courteous non nonsense service. They have a separate line for only appetizer orders. Otherwise the regular line moves pretty fast too. Just have an idea what you want and don’t waver too much. The falafel was delicious perfect balance of crispy and soft. And perfect flavor - not too salty or sweet. Not dry either. Baba ganoush was a tad too sour for me but also tasty. Same goes with the hummus. The cucumber sauce was DELICOUS - rich and cream. Would def eat here again.
