Mother Falafel Restaurant Moves to New Location on the Westside - Eater Vegas

"Mother Falafel has closed its small counter-service space at the westside’s Campus Commons Food Court and moved to its first independent restaurant at Rainbow Sunset Pavilion. The new location offers a roomier footprint with table seating for fast and casual dining. The menu includes handmade wraps and pitas, chicken shawarma pita pockets, wraps, plates, combo meals, and vegan falafel selections. They also offer a free meal deal on a customer's birthday with ID confirmation." - Bradley Martin

Mother Falafel brings a Mediterranean menu to the Westside soon - Eater Vegas

"Mother Falafel will soon be opening its own, independent restaurant, six miles to the south. The new location is importing the popular, casual Mediterranean choices and will move into the former Soulfish Poke and recently shuttered Rotisserie Chicken space at the Rainbow Sunset Pavilion retail hub. Located at 6375 S. Rainbow Blvd., Mother Falafel is previewing a future menu of 'handmade wraps and pitas made on the spot,' including chicken shawarma pita pockets, wraps, and plates, combo meals served with fries and a drink, and vegan falafel selections. The restaurant is also continuing the bonus of a free birthday meal when confirmed with an ID. The original site will continue to operate its window service and 24-hour drive-thru." - Bradley Martin

Very simple and quick yet delicious Israeli street food. Love that they have authentic items such as amba and laffa. They give very large portions and have a good selection of salads to fill your pita with. Also I love that they have mango lassi. One of my favorite drinks and nice to see and Indian drink in an Israeli restaurant!

Delicious food. Everything was prepared fresh right in front of us. Loved everything on my plate, can't wait to try more items from the menu. One suggestion is to invest into a better online platform because it would be great to have an option to order ahead...bur on the website half the items are marked unavailable

I really enjoyed everything about this place. The food is amazing! I took a mix grill to try everything and it was really delicious. The staff was super nice and welcoming. Everything is clean and tidy. I would come back here again.

Definitely recommend this restaurant. The food quality, taste, portions and the service, even the decorations has improved significantly since the owner has changed. You must try their chicken Kebob, Shnitzel and their falafel. Their pita is freshly baked and you can even buy it from them which is amazing. Their fries is a different level, with their own recipe. Very friendly and welcoming atmosphere. LOVED IT!

Shawarma was not readily available at the time of visit. The food is no longer kosher, but food is prepared fresh and is quite good. Ordered the Chicken Kabob Wrap since my initial choice of Shawarma was not available. Eating the chicken alone revealed it was tender and juicy but unfortunately the seasoning on the chicken was drowned out by the veggies and sauce that's added on in the wrap. It results in something that may taste slightly under seasoned overall. The wrap and pita bread is probably worth a visit just on it's own. You can purchase these separately and you can make your own wraps. They are constantly making these fresh and we were able to watch them bake several batches during our visit. The kabob wrap took around 15 minutes to make as it was grilled to order. I wouldn't recommend to stop by if you are in a hurry. Overall our experience was a positive one. Would have liked to have tried the Shawarma but it's not always available. Prices are about average for the genre of food but the fresh made bread/wrap gives this place an edge over others. A slight improvement on seasoning of the meat and having all menu items available would make Mother Falafel 5 stars, but as it stands, it is a solid 4 stars.

Best Mediterranean Food in Las Vegas! Mother Falafel is a true gem in the heart of Las Vegas. From the first bite, you can taste the freshness and authenticity in every dish. Their falafel is perfectly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, bursting with flavor. The shawarma is seasoned to perfection, the kababs are juicy and tender, and the fresh pita bread wraps everything together beautifully. Every bite feels like a trip to the Mediterranean. If you’re in Vegas and craving authentic Mediterranean cuisine, Mother Falafel is hands down the best spot in town!

Amazing / Delicious / Fantastic - Since I first had their chicken at a friends house I have not stopped thinking about going there - and had a chance to get some lunch there the other day. I got the #11 MF Dish - basically a little taste of everything. So flavorful and mouthwatering. They asked if i wanted spicy and I said of course! So you know, it's spicy!!!!! So spicy I cried, i love that. I don't think their is a bad item on the menu, Chicken is AMAZING. The staff was so friendly and my order was ready quickly. It's such a hidden little spot. Literally you can hardly see the sign behind trees. A lot of gems in this strip mall. Being so close to this restaurant will be one of the perks about going back to the office!

The best falafel I have had in town. Taste is beyond delicious. Jose and Gaston were informative on the food options available and took great care about my sons food allergies. The detail to quality food and customer service far surpass your typical Vegas restaurant. We will definitely be back for more. We ordered the lentil soup, kabob combo plate, and a chicken plate. Pita was made fresh as we were ordering.

Food was so good I had to take a picture in the middle of eating! 1st this place is always really clean and service is A+, staff is very helpful and kind. The food itself is of good quality, I've never had an issue here. Everything is fresh and served with care. This is one of my favorite spots for kabobs and will be returning!

Was in the mood for middle eastern food and found this "Mothers Falafel". BIG MISTAKE... the falafel wrap was absolutely the worst I'v had.. EVER! They were burnt on the outside and totally mushy on the inside.. it's now been 6 hours since i ate lunch there and honestly has to rush home and take a gulp of Milk of Magnesia because of the terrible heart burn i had all afternoon. The lentil soup tasted like mud.. no flavor whatsoever. I asked for a piece of lemon so I can add some flavor to it but the manager (or owner) said they do not have lemons... "in a mediterranean restaurant".. go figure!! Not sure who these people are that wrote those review?? Paid $36 for a so called falafel wrap, soup and salad that taste sooo bad that gives you hours of upset stomach and heartburn is beyond insanity. So.. a 1 STAR is too generous for this awful restaurant.

My husband and I love this place! Everything tastes super fresh. The staff is always very nice and helpful. You definitely get our money's worth - no skimping on the meat! I'm not normally a falafel fan, but I'm OBSESSED with theirs. So much flavor and great consistency. The inside of the business is pretty simple, but I do appreciate that everyone always looks very very clean!! Haven't had anything here I didn't like!

Once again, another fabulous meal from Mother Falafel! The falafel pita was terrific. Loaded with yummy hummus, fresh veggies and delicious pita bread! We always buy extra pita bags when we are there--they are the best. The service is spot on! Cute little area for dining in. Highly recommend.

Overall, great food. A little pricey but so worth it. I get the bowl with everything on it, a side of falafel and some pita with extra sauces!

This place used to have the best pita and falafel. The pita was warm and fresh. The falafel balls were crunchy and fresh. Apparently it's been sold. And you can the pita has been frozen and defrosted. The Shawarma was cold. Everything appealing that it once was is no longer. It's no longer kosher either not that that matters to me. Highly recommend not going there.

The Falafal is bomb! Not the house one they make with cabbage but the one you can put together yourself with tahini and Israeli salad. The shawarma on the other hand is gross and made my stomach hurt.

The new management has made some amazing changes since taking over! The place looks great and the food tastes even better. My favorite will always be the fresh baked pita bread (seriously the best I've ever had). The staff is always super friendly when I come in and service is quick. Definitely recommend for a quick and tasty meal!! :)

Absolutely rancid. I knew when I walked in I had made a mistake. But I gave them the benifit and tried it. Ordered a Shawarma and felafel wrap. Nasty these people don't know what felafel and shawarma are it's honestly a disgrace, chicken shawarma wrap was cold meat was seasoned with curry wich does not belong. Felafel was okay but I think it's just cause it was warm and I was so turned off by the cold " shawarma meat " the spit wasn't even working properly thing looked nasty. Ended up taking a couple bites. And threw away like a pound of that garbage food. Workers looked gross kitchen looked gross. Save your self the time I grew up eating good shawarma and good felafel this isn't a good example of these amazing foods. Shameful

Mother Falafel has good shawarma! They're located near 215, in Rainbow Sunset Pavilion, right behind Starbucks, next to Greens and Proteins and Yama Sushi. Plenty of parking is available. Inside is a busy atmosphere with good music playing. They have limited seating for a table and high top. Most orders are for takeouts. The wall writings are interesting, many customers wrote nice compliments, and some were written in Hebrew like "Great Falafel!" It's amazing to see, they have a loyal following. Menu includes vegan options for falafel, and a selection of shawarma, signature plates, hummus, schnitzel, and kabob. Ordering process is quick and easy, they operate as a counter service, and food is made fast with minimal wait. The Mother Falafel signature plate ($19.99) is very delicious! It has a generous serving of thinly sliced chicken shawarma, great spice, and so good with tahini and amba sauce, very flavorful! It also comes with three crispy falafels, rice, hummus, pickles, red cabbage, roasted eggplant, a refreshing Israeli salad of tomatoes, cucumber, and onions, French fries, and tahinI, all accompanied with a fluffy baked pita. Malabi ($4.99) is a delightful dessert and so yummy! It's made of coconut milk pudding that's topped with sweet rose syrup and crushed pistachios, so good! Service from Sasha and Jose is welcoming, attentive, and friendly. The owner Jacob is also nice! The shawarma is very good, has great portion, and reasonable price.

Ordered delivery from here tonight and to say it was disappointing is a bit of an understatement. While I know ordering on Postmates the prices are usually jacked up a bit they charge an additional 6 dollars for a Shwarma Pita. 14.99 on their menu 20.99 on Postmates is bordering on the criminal for an underwhelming underseasoned Shwarma. My wife just wanted kebabs. 3 kebabs for $10. Once again underseasoned and boring. 3 kebabs didn't even have enough beef to make a decent burger. We also ordered a Shwarma plate which was also underseasoned. Apparently someone forgot where the salt was. I tried this place back when they first opened and thought they were really good but opinions change. Seems like they just stopped trying. Won't be back or ordering from them again as I wasn't impressed with anything we got. If you check my reviews I don't give a lot of bad ones they have to be earned. Mother Falafel earned this one.

WOW hadn't been here a few months and suddenly there is new ownership,higher prices, smaller portions and not even kosher anymore as quality of Shawarma was really bad, chewy and tough full of fat.

Food here was pretty good and the serving was good for its price too. Really enjoyed their shawarma fries! Service was good too and it seemed to have a good atmosphere inside the restaurant where family can be seated. Would definitely come back! Plus they're 24/7!

Sadly I think my order was just a little off. The reviews made me order there today but my pita shawarma was soggy and had incorrect sauces, ingredients in it. The extra pita I got was amazing which makes me think something just went wrong which happens. Also got a side of shawarma meat which looks amazing and will be enjoyed together with the extra pita. Pickup was super fast and uncomplicated which I appreciated.

Been to mother falafel so many times and it's always good! Food is really delicious, I get the shawarma plate wit extra meat it's around 20 bucks but it can feed two easily possibly even 3! Everything tastes fresh and they're open 24 hours which it makes super easy to go there whenever. Also the location is right off the 215 and rainbow I wish I had some pics to post but im usually so into the food that I forget to snap a pic every time ‍ But if you like Mediterranean style food you'd try it food is delicious, portions are really great! Promise on my next updated review I will post pics of the food.

Is this place still Glatt kosher ? Used to come here all the time and came back this last time and seemed they had a change in ownership? The mezuzah on the door is gone and all the kosher Israeli drink options are gone. It no longer has the same atmosphere it once had, now with a Christmas tree on display as well. Another great place gone, I guess. Hopefully the new places becomes kosher again.

Currently obsessed with Mother Falafel's fresh made pitas and falafels. I buy a bag of pitas every few weeks and keep them frozen until ready to toast. They are THE best pitas.

Terrific food and service. Great for a late night bite. Falafel might be among the best I've had in town. The fries are terrific. And the chicken was also great.

Besides having the oddest hours for business and sometimes the wrong hours, the food and service were also both just....ok. Walking in the staff made it feel as if it was an inconvenience (it was around 11am) with one staff blankly staring at us from a table without a word and the other just briskly asking what we wanted without having time to look things over. The place itself was clean and organized with plenty of indoor seating. We ended up getting 'The Mother F..." that came with shawarma, 3 falafels, rice, fries, hummus, and a pita. Overall the plate didn't have much of a flavor from the shawarma down to the rice. The one thing we did like was the pita, which a lot of other reviewers noted was good and 'freshly made' but as we were waiting for the food to be made, a close customer had bought a few bags of the pitas which were being pulled out of pre-packed bags, which isn't a big deal to us if it was, just wanted others to note that. Overall, we most likely won't be returning any time soon, but we're never one to shy away if they improve in the future.

OMG.. ok I'm going to write this review as calmly as I can lol I went last night with some friends to get dinner. Both of them are kosher and we like exploring new places. Mother Falafel is located inside a small strip mall. When we entered the building it is bright, colorful and has great vibes. The menu is big and easy to read and understand as well. Each plate is thoroughly described and amazingly priced. When you walk up to the counter you are welcomed by extremely friendly staff that are eager to assist you. They have a condiment bar behind the counter and you can choose to add quite a bit of different things to you meal as well. The food was absolutely delicious and all made fresh! I had a shawarma pocket, one friend had a plate meal and the other a shawarma wrap. All the bead is baked in house and is light and fluffy (honestly the best pita I have ever had in my life) I can't wait to return and try something new. Thank you for the amazing experience! Also you can buy bags of fresh pita to take home for $5.00!

Another great place in Vegas. I went for a Shawerma chicken wrap, and it was absolutely delicious. They have a good selection of inexpensive food and all. Good customer service in this small area. I'd come back to visit again.

Ordered the overpriced shawarna wraps with mild sauce on both. Told the lady over the phone multiple times to put mild sauce. Well, they were both super hot & spicy! My son couldn't even eat it! Took one bite and spit it out. My husband couldn't even finish it (and he loves spicy/hot foods). Imagine if we got the extra hot red sauce?? There'll be fire coming out of their mouths lol! But yeah, super disappointed. 2 thumbs down

Stopped by with family that keeps Kosher. I really loved this place! The food was great! Everything was fresh and tasty. The two best things are that for a Glatt Kosher restaurant the prices were reasonable, and that it is open 24 hours. It's also really close to home so that's another plus for me. We are already planning on going back!

FOOD while staying at Hilton World Resorts we opted for Door Dash to save on taking an Uber or taxi. We ordered the falafel schawarma plate and laffa schawarma. The meat proportions aren't huge like we've been to in California, but the meat tastes good and isn't over seasoned. The falafels were my favorite. The side salads were done well and arranged on the plate appropriately. SERVICE I can't say much because I wasn't there in person but we didn't get any utensils or napkins in the to go bag. We are used to tahini being standard sauces but it wasn't in the bag. I'm not sure if it's their policy we have to ask for these things on the order though. Luckily I had saved utensils from another eating out experience. AMBIANCE I can't say anything about because we didn't go in person OVERALL I would eat here again! I'm very full because the food was so good I wanted to keep eating.

Very delicious and I was satisfied. My mom and I split a wrap because it's very huge. Portions are a very nice size. I must say their red schug what the best tasting schug that I've tried out of all the Shawarma places that I've tried in the past. It was super spicy and had a great flavor to it, and it was just the right kick for my Shawarma wrap. I'm sad that they are so far from where I live but I'll be sure to come back here when I'm in the area again.

Wow!! We finally found an amazing shawarma place in Vegas. The shawarma is perfectly seasoned and cooked. My husband and I each got the mother f plates. It comes with everything. It had shawarma, falafel, rice, hummus, fries, salad, cucumber tomato salad, and pita. They also include tahini and multiple sauces. Everything was so fresh, flavorful, and really good. We split both plates with our kids and it was plenty of food. We did buy extra fries and pita bread. I could sleep on their pita bread. It's literally as soft as a pillow. While we were eating they came over and gave our kids beanies. All around great experience and we will be back. Everything is kosher as well.

This place is the most consistent place in all of Las vegas. I have been eating here for at least a year it's always the same it's always delicious even the people that in my office constantly talk about how this place is always delicious we regularly order and we always enjoy it without any complaints they're mild sauces way too hot though. Born and raised in New York lived in the Middle East for many years on and off this place is delicious I've never had a bad meal here I don't understand how people say it's delicious and give four stars this is a 10 star Place highly recommend

So glad to have needed dinner while we were out shopping. The pita was literally the best I've ever eaten. We tried both the falafel and shawarma pitas. Both were flavorful and made fresh. Saw the wraps and bowls made for other orders. They looked amazing. Will be back to try those at a future date. Also saw the pitas being made. Super cool. And as others have mentioned you can also buy packs of the pitas. Yum.
