Was Nan Wellins at Max's Kosher Cafe And Marketplace a mag?
Five stars for most authentic falafel and wide salad choices in the area. If your falafel isn't complete without lefet (pickled turnip and onions, this is the place. (Can't comment on schwarma, I'm a veg. No stars for dingy 1950s-cafeteria interior and sometimes surly service. Go for the food, not the atmosphere. View all feedback.

I'm just going for the falafel and the shima. it is the best I found in the city and includes a complete toppings/salads bar. the rest of the food is not remarkable.

A large selection of deception articles, including a well-stocked to-go case, but the felafel is the star article! made fresh and order, with a wide range of sweet fillings and sauces, it is worth the trip!

Beautiful restaurant, great food, lots of space available.

Nestled in a strip mall, this restaurant boasts an eclectic atmosphere that some may find off-putting, yet it captivates patrons with its outstanding falafel and shawarma. Diners rave about the freshness of the falafel, made to order, and the expansive salad bar that complements their hearty sandwiches. While the decor may reflect a dingy cafeteria vibe and service can occasionally be brisk, the culinary offerings overshadow these quirks. Known for its authentic flavors and affordable prices, it stands out as a must-visit for anyone in the area, making it a beloved spot among locals and visitors alike.

Delicious casual kosher diner. The falafel was especially good, and the shwarma looked amazing. Coming back soon to get that. Prices online were not accurate, I uploaded a photo of new prices.

This strip mall shop is the weirdest, dumpiest restaurant I 've ever been to in America, but the shawarma sandwich was absolutely fantastic! The sandwich assembly staff were really helpful and patient. The floor had ripped up tiles, miscellaneous stuff was stored partially hidden behind black curtains, and there were just a few tables along the wall of a large open area. Weird and dumpy! One star for the place. But I 'll say again, the shawarma sandwiches, with a falafel on top, were fabulous! G
