Best falafel EVER! - Edit
The falafel is so crunchy you will be blown away. They have lots of different flavours you can have in a pita, on rice, or on salad. They have moved to Red Square and have some late nights. Did I mention how crunchy the falafel are?

You don't know good falafel until you go here - Edit
Super friendly staff and good range of different toppings for your falafel. I loved here and only discovered it before leaving. Worth many a trip back

The best falafels ever! - Edit
As a vegan, I like falafels, but they weren't my favourite choice of vegan protein. However, upon seeing the raving reviews for this place, I had to check it out and I was blown away! The falafels are the best I've ever had, and wrapped up in delicious pita bread and sauces. The place is vegetarian, however there are some options that are vegan by default and the rest can easily be made vegan by request. I will definitely be returning here next time I'm looking for a lunch spot in town!

They have relocated from that small alleyway shop to larger brighter premises in Red Square (bottom of Devonport Rd).

Delicious - Edit
Also had the Kiwiana but swapped beetroot for red peppers. Really tasty falafel and nice place. Service good too. The main falafel wraps were NZD 13 each.

tasty and affordable vegan Israeli falafel - Edit
Authentic Israeli falafel served in a pocket bread (Pitta). I tried the "Kiwiana" and it was a delicious, healthy and filling dish with great combination of flavors which exceeded my expectations.
Read moreThe portion size was fairly decent relative to the reasonable price ($13 NZD)
The very kind and friendly owners know very well what vegan means, and will happily replace any non vegan ingredients with a vegan one instead. Therefore all the dishes which appear on the menu can be made vegan.
The atmosphere inside the eatery was cozy and welcoming. It was an absolute delight to eat in here and I'll definitely be back there to try all of the other options on the menu as soon as I'll have the chance to do so.
It's just a pity that they close quite early (15:00), but apparently it's a common thing here in Tauranga.
Pros: All options on the menu can be made vegan upon req, Decent portion size, affordable prices, Welcoming atmosphere, very friendly owners
Cons: The daily opening hours could be longer
