Hilana Falafel: Jerusalem Style

They have the best falafel in town—I’m from Jordan, so it’s been a while since I had falafel like that.💛

This is, hands down, the best falafel sandwich I tried in the DMV area. Would recommend you go for the suggested toppings as well! 😋

Minal and her team make beautiful fresh Jerusalem style falafel, executed to the highest standards. My family is particularly obsessed with her pickles! Prices are extremely reasonable and, most importantly, her food is infused with the spirit of love, community, and welcome to all who share mutual feelings of dignity, respect, and justice. In addition to purchasing at her falafel stands, we hired Minal to cater a 200+ person luncheon. The work was *pristine.* Generously portioned, exceedingly fresh, and beautifully displayed on the buffet. Staff was exceptional as well. Hilana has loyal customers and forever friends in us, and everyone else who tries them! ❤️🥙

By far the best Falafel ever! I visit them at the Mount Pleasant Farmers Market and always get an extra spicy wrap! The staff and owner is amazing, quick and nice. You can seriously taste the love and fresh ingredients.

The highlight of my Saturday mornings is stopping off at the Mount Pleasant farmers market and getting a Hilana falafel. The gods would choose this over nectar, any day.

1000/10!!!!!! These are the most authentic falafel sandwiches I’ve had had in the U.S. it just doesn’t get any tastier than Hilana’s. They even import their pickles (!!!!) Do yourself a favor and give their sandwiches a try- you won’t regret it. So delicious.

Such an amazing fresh falafel. I love all the fixings they put in it (pickles, cabbage, harissa). It makes for the best Saturday morning treat.

My favorite falafel in town by far! Hot and fresh every time, lots of delicious veggies in there as well. Also such friendly, quick service. The owner is so nice and is always glad to see repeat customers.
