PAOLINA

Hands down the #1 falafel place in NYC. So delicious and quickly served with a friendly staff. Vibe here is also immaculate. I’m super pumped to have found this in the neighborhood. Great addition

I would give them more stars if I could. Great addition to our neighborhood! Got there at 11:50 and shortly after people started lining up. One item menu (and a GREAT ONE) $14 Falafel pita. My advice is to not be nit-picky and say yes to all the toppings. Run, don’t walk, before they sell out!

The tastiest falafel pita I’ve had. Flavors and textures are dreamy and the store is vibrant and cheerful. The menu may be small but the the output is a mighty, heavenly creation 🫶🏼

Honestly maybe the best falafel I’ve ever had. Super friendly owner, nicely decorated little spot and the fresh ingredients really made it. It was a flavour explosion but also didn’t feel too heavy or unhealthy. I will be back (every day lol)

You know a food establishment is awesome when they only have 1 menu item. Paolina has perfected the falafel pita . It was delicious, fresh ingredients and authentic! Best of luck team!

A great falafel pita for $15! They've been selling out recently because of their popularity so would recommend showing up earlier if you can.

Fantastic falafel pita! 🥙. There's a bit of a line, but totally worth the wait.

Hands down the best falafel pita, like wowowow boy howdy it’s hard to not get one everyday and if you’re ever in Willy better get you one

it is a very very very good falafel sandwich and i am obsessed with how many toppings there are the food: only one thing! each falafel is fried fresh so it's guaranteed to be crunchy and moist, i thoroughly enjoyed how they made sure to layer each of the toppings and falafels so each bite had a bit of everything. i asked for extra hummus, pickles, and peppers which made it a 10/10 the space: very small with few bar seating the service: super nice!

The falafel is great. The falafel balls themselves are crisp yet not dry on the inside. Room for improvement - they seat people in front of the counter where all the veggies are so you cannot see what is available or pick what you want and don't want. Also I think I heard they had fries but there was no menu so couldn't tell

Only one thing on the menu, Falafel Sandwich $14. While it is much more expensive than your local halal cart or any option within Williamsburg, they execute the Falafel Sandwich really well. The falafel is made fresh in front of you, the chickpeas are seasoned well (no more bland and dry falafel), and the sandwich is packed well with just enough toppings to not overpower the falafel. Highly recommend trying this, the staff were very nice as well.

Don't sleep on the falafel pitas at Paolina! The pita is super warm and topped with a generous amount of veggies upon veggies - make sure you get all the sauce you need. For those who are indecisive, don't fret - they literally only have 2 things on the menu - the falafel pita and fries - that's it! I like how they focus on what they do well! The staff are friendly, and your order comes out fresh - loved the tile work inside. A great tasty spot to stop by to get your falafel fix. +warm pitas +straightforward menu :D +friendly service

Awesome falafel pita here!! We stopped by on their second day open and got the only item on the menu, the falafel was super flavorful and fresh, the pita was fluffy and light, the other flavors were strong and pickled and slightly spicy and just perfect! Def try this place and I'm excited to come back!

Can tell everything is very fresh, and it does taste great. Im not sure its worth $14 but youre paying for the location of the restaurant as well (bedford avenue). Probably the best falafel in wburg but dont know if i would shell out for it again.
