falafel express opens its doors: weekdays only for now
This blog has moved to Twitter! Check out my twitter feed for the latest restaurant, retail, and cultural news in the neighborhood.
Falafel Express (Glatt Kosher) opened its doors this past Wednesday, adding some activity to an otherwise vacant stretch of Spring Street between 4th and 5th streets.
Their small menu offers Mediterranean food standards like falafel, shawarma, kabob, salads, hummus and dips.
For now the Historic Core space will be open Monday through Friday, 8:00am to 5:00pm — but plans call for expanded hours after two months, according to restaurant partner Bobby Shethia.

I wish them luck. That’s a tough spot, it is always blocked by film crews. I’ll check it out this week.
Shall people heretofore refer to it as “Fal-Ex?” :)
I’ve cruised by here a couple of times, all of them after hours, sigh. I want falafel!
Ate lunch there last week. Loved it. Will be back!
“Glatt Kosher” = “strictly kosher, no really, we are really ultra-mega-serious about it”.
Just in case anyone was going to ask.
whooo hoo! thanks guys! I’ll have to check out the schwarma and the fallafel.. be great to have a local option for those Zankou cravings ;)
Had lunch there yesterday with some co-workers since it’s across the street from our building. We had the schwarma and a grilled chicken pita sandwich with potato latkes. Thumbs up!
Hours have been updated to be 11:00am-8:00pm
