@vdub – Yeah. You have to work to get a true fat man worthy sandwich – but it was pretty good. The fries…. meh. They were nice and crispy, but also had a little bit of the battered/coated taste/feel that I don’t like.

Also, yeah – that space is going to suck when it’s cold/wet – after paying for your food, you’re told to move down and to the right. Which is fine, except for the herd of slow moving people trying to squeeze on their toppings.

Also, $0.75 for hummus? Really?

How are you supposed to add anything to the falafel? It’s pretty tough squeezing anything more into that pita, ha ha. I like the stronger taste of Moishes, but it’s good. The space is entirely too small for the lunch rush. Will really be a challenge during inclement weather.

It’s amazing how no meat sandwich can be so popular.

If there’s one food I can live without more of in midtown it’s falafel

The fries sound good though

Moaz is indeed the best falafel in NY. The toppings are unbelievably fresh and delicious.

Nice! I ate many a meal at Maoz in Amsterdam. Can’t wait to make it down there for lunch next week!

That oily Brocoli is amazing. I get salad bowl to load up on that.

This is plain and simple the best falafel in New York City (and Amsterdam and Paris for that matter). I gushed when they opened in Union Square.
