The Flying Falafel - Carte

This place has some delicious vegan falafel! Had one to go and it was amazing. The correct texture with ingenious sauces and spices. The staff is dope af.

All vegan food and fast service even though the line was pretty long. My favorite is the vegan baklava (a must try! . Very friendly service and it is nice to see them prepare your food in front of you.

Great place for quick and delicious falafel! The falafel in pita is a TON of food. The fries are good but unless you're starving you really don't need them. There's a bench outside to sit on with limited room so if you're coming here it's probably a bit nicer to sit down and eat somewhere else. Voir le carte

Very small shop with limited options, mostly just falafel and fries with desserts. For almost $8 the falafel pocket was fresh and tasty. The price is a bit steep since you have no choices of what's inside. The wait isn't long so I would recommend as a quick bite before a show. There are no meat options, only falafel.

Flying Falafel is one of the few remaining restaurants in San Francisco that provides meals that fulfill the trifecta of being satisfying, delicious, and healthy. As someone who enjoys eating, I often find it difficult to finish any of the various meals offered at Flying Falafel. The staff is exceptionally friendly, particularly the person at the checkout counter.

This is a very small establishment with a limited menu, primarily featuring falafel and fries, along with some desserts. The falafel bag, priced at nearly $8, was fresh and tasty. While the price may seem a bit high since you have no customization options, the wait time is short. I would recommend this spot for a quick bite before a show, but keep in mind that there are no meat options available—only falafel. Voir le carte

Wow! There’s an incredible, affordable vegan falafel and mock meat spot right in the heart of San Francisco. The staff were incredibly friendly and took the time to explain the menu. They even let me sample a bit of the mock meat, which was delicious, by the way. Although seating is limited, it’s perfect for takeout if you can find a nice sunny spot in a nearby park to enjoy your meal. I’ll definitely return before I leave San Francisco. A big thank you to the team for being so helpful today!

Great service! Staff was super nice and helpful, which I really appreciate. I personally didn’t love the food I ordered, although my husband did. I had the hummus plate with falafel. It was nice but unfortunately they added spicy sauce to it which I didn’t order. Falafel was good but hummus could be tastier. The pita bread it comes with could be toasted, that would make it nicer. Fries were really good! It’s a good option if you want a vegan quick bite but personally I’m not a fan. Anyway, try it yourself because you may like it as my husband did!

Here are a few quick notes: **Parking:** Good luck! This is San Francisco, so you’re better off finding public parking and walking to the restaurant. If you happen to be near Civic Center, that should work out well. **Seating:** There is no seating area here; it’s a grab-and-go spot with counter service. Since it was my first time, I felt a bit unsure when I approached the counter and the guy preparing food told me, “You can start your order!” I hesitated, unsure of what to do, but thankfully another staff member stepped in to take my order. You simply come to the counter and tap or type in what you’d like. If you’re familiar with the menu, you’ll be just fine. **Food:** They offer veget... Voir le carte
