Very tasty, cool spot. The service is friendly and incredibly quick. The only downside is they only take cash.

The people ahead of me seemed under the impression that this place had been here forever, and who am I to disagree? It seemed like the sort of thing intrinsic to the city: a takeout roughly the size of the room where I store my clothes, which offers a basic falafel menu and is open late. In addition to my plate, I ordered a small tea which was very hot and very good (cardamom spiced, it seemed); sadly, I ended up spilling most of it on a park bench nearby. The falafel was robust and the accompaniments plentiful. I was glad for some salad in there as there aren't a ton of places to get a salad at 10 PM on a Sunday, and the rice was spiced as well. For New York, it was a feast for the money. Nothing fancy, but I could hardly ask more of them.

Mamoun's Falafel was really good. We came here late and I didn't mind to have traveled for good food from the financial district. It's always fun to be in NYC and find great food.

My husband and I both got the shawarma plate and we were given a bag of pita with. We ordered some falafels and it was so good. We will be back again!

Omg!!
One of the best things I've ever eaten.  
Falafel!!!  Who knew.  
I added the spicy sauce- and it was spicy!! But in all the good ways.  
I wish my stomach was bigger because I wanted to keep eating more.  
You order quick and wait for your food to come.  
If there's a line- wait!!  You will not be disappointed.  
Mamoun's - please open a place in NC???!!  
Pretty please.

Located not far from Washington Square Park. We ordered a take out. Delicious. Real Falafel and Shawarma, very good flavor. Platters come with pita bread, hot sauce and tahini upon request. Thinking of buying from them every week. Good stuff!

I love this falafel, the portions are perfection, the pita is soft and delicious, and the sauces are copious. Mamoun has several locations but I am always partial to this particular location by Washington Square. The staff is polite, quick and to the point..which I appreciate. They quicker I can get this sandwich to my mouth, the better.

I would highly recommend their original/standard falafel sandwich, the falafel bow, and the shwarma sandwich.

Affordable and a classic in NYC, it's well known for very good reason!

A NY classic. The falafel is a solid option and still very reasonably priced (which is honestly so appreciated!!). Our food came out quickly too. Even with outdoor seating, the options are somewhat limited. Remember to bring cash because the atm next door is the sketchiest one I've seen in a LONG time.
