Sababa falafel is seriously amazing. What really sets them apart though is the freshness of all the toppings and sauces – everything just bursts with taste. It's the kind of meal that leaves you feeling completely satisfied and already planning your next visit. The Staff were extremely attentive and kind. The manager Mahdi is one of kind and genuine. He Explained the whole menu and kept checking up on every customer. Don’t just think about coming here, just go!

I love this restaurant! The staff have always been delightful, the falafel is exquisite especially if YOU know what to add. The cold drinks available were lemonade, strawberry watermelon, and mango. Ask for a mix of all three - absolutely lovely. I asked for a side of fried cauliflower, eggplant and potatoes it was perfect to accompany my falafel.

Believe the hype! Great food, good service. A definite stop for some Mediterranean food. Loved the table condiments of olive oil, lemon juice and mint! The place was clean and tidy.

Sababa Falafel Shop is a great spot for fresh, authentic Palestinian food. The falafel is flavorful and perfectly cooked, and you can really taste the quality of the ingredients. The hummus is creamy with the option to add meat on top! Everything—from the vegetables to the sauces—tastes fresh. One of the best parts is the customization. You can build your sandwich exactly how you want it, with plenty of topping and sauce options. The tea with fresh mint is also a standout—simple, refreshing, and a perfect addition to the meal. The staff is friendly and welcoming. There are often long lines, so bring a little patience—but the team moves the line quickly and never seems flustered, even when it’s busy. It’s worth the wait, and there’s ample seating once you get your food. Overall, Sababa

Definitely worth a visit! Food is fresh and filling. Prices are a little more high, but may be worth it every now and then. They do pack it full for you though. Got the veg with Jerusalem bread and falafel and came out to just under $20. They also keep the tables clean and ready for all the customers pouring in.
