Small place, good food, friendly atmosphere

4 Posted on 07 / 17 / 2011

We had the Baghdad Platter with various tasty things, such as falafels, hummus and many other things I don't know the names of. Felt very authentic Middle Eastern. The freshly squeezed juice was amazing and very well worth the (inexpensive) price.

The owner/cook played some cool arabic music at a decent level which was nice. The service was very quick, and it's not a place you sit and lounge for ages. It's a fast food restaurant, but I'd imagine it's actually quite healthy, didn't feel "fatty". I would definitely come back if I was in the neighbourhood.

Pros: Tasty food, Nice staff, Inexpensive
Cons: No toilet

The best falafel I've ever had

5 Posted on 09 / 07 / 2010

I'm so lucky I live around the corner from this place - 3 euros for the best (3-ball) falafel I've ever had. Baharat uses all fresh ingredients, the tomatoes, cucumbers, ETC are amazing. If you're vegan MAKE SURE TO TELL HIM - NO YOGURT SAUCE! I get the spicy mango sauce, and besides even if I could eat the yogurt sauce I wouldn't because the other one is better. :-P

The fruit juice is 3,50 for a large (big glass!), but it's freshly made and worth every penny (share it, or get a small for 2 euros).

Recently, they've had this amazing thing on the menu called the "Mesa plate" for 3 euros -- it has three dishes all freshly prepared: tabouleh, baba ganouj, hummus, with pita bread. Order it, you won't regret it!

Also, this place is open late (1 or 2AM I think?), but it's quite small. That said, it's cozy and I often sit in the window seats while eating.

Pros: delicious food, cheap, comfy
Cons: small

We tried out Baharat-Falafel yesterday and were more than pleased. We had a "Bagdadteller" for two which cost 12€ - not too cheap but the food was great and we were full afterwards (We told them we wanted a vegan version of the dish). The staff was very friendly. They recommended the fresh "Gute Laune" juice - a mix of banana, orange, pineapple and carrot for 2€. We tried it and loved it!
A friend had a falafel sandwich which was very good as well.
It doesn't say on the menu what is vegan and what isn't but just ask and you will be helped :)

Pros: good food, friendly staff, nice atmosphere and music

Good Falafel

Not much to say except for that it's some good eats for a reasonable price. They have a new sesame sauce that is vegan so you don't have to settle for no sauce dry falafel wraps. Wish the hummous was included but you can pay extra for it.

Pros: vegan friendly, excellent falafels, fresh
Cons: pay extra for hummous

Super Quality Falafel

A well established place selling superb falafel. This place know how to serve up top quality food. As I stood outside A mini bus full of well dressed middle aged people was dropped off outside and they all went in for food. Great location in a vibrant area of the city.

Fresh food. Great prices. Friendly welcome. After the Falafel, I would recommend the mixed fresh fruit smothie.
