Oily but good - Edit
The falafels are fried. I wish they had some baked. When I went, they were almost overcooked but still delicious. Will be a rare treat tho because of all the oil

Metro accessible Arlington falafel glory! - Edit
Hello Amsterdam Falafelshop, welcome to Arlington! New business but a franchise that is tried and true- it is awesome, and your mouth will thank you. Don't think. About the fried part, there are tons if delicious veggies to add to this sandwich or bowl. I like the bowl better- add on a pita if you miss the carbs. Really though it's about those delicious falafel balls and the toppings with some vegan tahini sauce at the end. Don't forget the frites- awesome. Peanut sauce and curry ketchup, yum.
Avoid the garlic cream, cole slaw, yogurt sauce and desserts if you're vegan. All else is vegan!
Narrow restaurant space but way more seating than the original in Adams Morgan. Not too busy because of location. Easy Metro access and parking is definitely easier than the DC locations.
Love it!
Pros: All veg, Frites, Seating
Cons: Not all vegan

Deliciousness repackaged as a vegetarian falafel - Edit
This location is newly joining the beautiful collection of falafel shops from a local chain. What makes this one different? Like the other new ones, it's so new and clean! Otherwise, the menus are the same, the toppings are the same, the deliciousness is the same.
I like this one for its easy parking though and adjacency to the Metro. They tell you what isn't vegan- it should be common sense... Not vegan: garlic cream, cole slaw, yogurt sauce and desserts. So that means you can go to town with everything else! I would go for a bowl and add toppings, because if you have eaten the pita sandwich, you know it gets unwieldy and messy. The fries are awesome, even if not fresh from potatoes they cut in house. The peanut sauce and curry ketchup- yum!!!
Favorite toppings are the onions, parsley, tahini, pickled cauliflower, beets, pickled turnips and the cabbage. Go crazy- it's so good!!
The staff here are really nice!
Pros: All veg, Falafel bowls, Frites
Cons: Not all vegan

so happy you're here! - Edit
What a treat to discover my favorite falafel restaurant open in Clarendon! Now no more treks into DC fighting traffic and not finding parking. And the fare is every bit as yummy as the DC locations. Welcome to Virginia, Amsterdam Falafelshop!
Pros: great food, friendly staff, curried catsup
