Editorial Review for Mamoun's Falafel – by Ben Williams
The Scene
Very quick, perfunctory service caters to a fast-moving line of takeout customers that often extends out the door. A few battered wooden tables do exist, but they're usually full and crammed against the wall. It's best to take your order back to the office, or over to nearby Washington Square Park. Taking a place of honor on the wall is a portrait of the portly Mamoun himself, circa 1971.
The Food
Cheap, very filling and good enough to consistently merit a mention in arguments over the best shawarma and falafel in the city. The creamy baba ghanoush and juicy tabbouleh aren't far behind, either. Dessert pastries, however, are dry and pallid.

I have been eating falafel for many years, and have tried too many restaurants (in too many cities) to keep count. Mamoun's is consistently at the top of my list, and the BEST in NYC for sure. Two bucks. Take someone and impress.
