Delicious vegan shawarma bowl - Edit
Love Falafel Inc. for its mission, convenience, and tasty food! The vegan shawarma bowl is really good. My non-vegan friends love it too.

Great Falafel - Edit
My little sister introduced me to this place for lunch while we took her little one for a walk. Wow! Great Falafel. I enjoyed a twist on the Detroit take of the wrapped falafel sandwich that I am more used to. Liked the half pita version with tons of fresh greens and sauces. They have their vegan sauces separate and clearly marked, and you can fill them as needed. We got them super quick too! We walked across the street and ate our salad and falafels outside on benches while listening to a street musician sing us Sinatra classics. It was a perfect vegan spring lunch in Georgetown.

Wonderful spot - Edit
Awesome spot with two locations. Very affordable with good portions. They have shwarma and falafel. My partner loves to get the salad. Only downside is the plastic that the salad comes in. Would be awesome if they could move towards a more recyclable bowl.
Read morePros: Cheap, Big portions, Different options
Cons: Plastic bowls for salads.

Delicious and inexpensive - Edit
Good falafel and hard to beat the prices- nothing over $5. They have vegan shawarma now, which I didn’t see added to their website yet.
Read moreI went at 3pm on a weekend, and it was packed. So you know it must be good. The space is quite small with no seating and no bathroom, but it’s hard to complain about that with the prices. There’s some nice seating along the canal in Georgetown if you’re looking for a place to take you food.
Pros: Inexpensive
Cons: Tiny space

$4 falafel salad. The greens are great and the falafel may be the best in DC. You can't find a better price.

Excellent and Best Value in DC - Edit
Imagine awesome Mediterranean food at a very reasonable price and you have Falafel Inc. I ordered the Falafel Bowl. The falafel were not greasy, and spiced perfectly.
Read moreI added garlic and tahini and that combo took the bowl to a new level.
4 dollars for a Falafel Bowl? Best deal around, and they donate meals to refugees for each ten dollars you spend.
The restaurant had a couple stand tables with no chairs. You can choose to eat inside sitting on a bench by the window.
Be sure to tell them you are vegan, and ask them about which added sauces are vegan.
Pros: great falafel bowl, they are philanthropic
Cons: could easily be 100 percent vegan

Veg falafel simplicity - Edit
What do you want- falafel in a pita or a salad bowl? That's all you really need to decide. It's entirely veg*n. If you want it vegan, tell them- they'll just skip the dressing. The tabbouleh is not gluten free.
Read moreThere are sides that you can order- zaatar fries, salad and more falafel or hummus. They have coconut water and some Middle Eastern sodas.
When leaving, you can grab some more sauce- the white sauce is mayo based. Most have the creaminess just from tahini. Just ask which ones are vegan!
There is not much seating, a few stand tables inside and a few sit down outside. No matter. The coolest part about Falafel Inc aside from price (???so cheap!!!) is the social humanitarian approach- about $10 spent in the shop will lead to their paying for 1 meal for a refugee. No place else can you eat falafel and feel good about it.
Pros: All veg, So cheap, Humanitarian
Cons: Not all sauces are vegan
