Liebe es - Edit
Fastfood in vegan. Es war perfekt und preisgünstig. Das Menü für 13,60€ beinhaltet ein Pita Brot gefüllt mit Falafel oder wahlweise anderen Alternativen, Pommes und einem Getränk. Das Pita brot kann man sich nach Herzenslust selbst befüllen und mit einer veganen Soße toppen. Gleiches gilt für die Pommes.

Fresh, flavorful, and fun to build your own bowl or pita 🌿 - Edit
Everything was so fresh and delicious! I loved the build your own salad bar — it’s such a fun concept. I definitely went heavy on the spicy peppers because I love that tangy kick! This place will definitely be on my list for my next visit to Amsterdam!

Still goes hard - Edit
I had this for the first time in 2010 and it’s still UNMATCHED. Make sure you load your bowl or pita. So cheap, fresh, we need this in Aus.

Vegan fast food!😍 - Edit
I’m not a big fan of falafel in general, but fries at Maoz are always solid and never disappoint. And super affordable! Spicy mayo is my favourite sauce ever!

Quick, tasty, satisfying - Edit
It’s just consistently good. Good falafel and there’s a salad/topping bar where you can go wild. For a fair price. You’re not walking away hungry. Nothing fancy, a simple bite that satisfies.

Great falafel pitas, great value - Edit
At Maoz the falafel is consistently very good and combined with the wonderful salad bar, where you can refill your pita, it makes a fantastically tasty and filling meal.

Vegan Fries for the win - Edit
Everything was vegan! I love that we don’t have to worry about the fries being made in the same oil is meat. They were very good and even had vegan mayo.

Friendly and fresh! - Edit
Very fresh and delicious. The chips (fries) were as close to perfect as is possible to get in this country. Because they weren't cooked in animal fat, they were easy to eat! All sauces were vegan which was such a relief. It seems almost impossible to get vegan-friendly sauce for falafel in most places, but this eatery had exactly what I wanted; garlic mayo, spicy mayo, curry sauce, tahini, mamba sauce! Excellent.
Read moreGreat selection of pickled veggies and serve-yourself salad station. Most chains are utterly miserable affairs but I strongly recommend MAOZ to any hungry traveller. Also quite affordable, which is always a plus.

So filling, pretty good! - Edit
For an inexpensive meal and a healthy one at that, this is pretty dang good. You pick all your toppings, whether a bowl or pita, and your sauces. I thought it was great for a mid day walk around lunch!

Great food and service! - Edit
I desided to get salad bowl with falafel, it's so nice you get to pick what you want in your own salad. The woman working there was so nice and told me she had worked there for over 30 years. I told her that I took pics of the food and asked if I could get one of the front. It was no problem and she said she had never heard about Happy Cow. And that it's apps like that that helps they stay open so she appreciated that so much ❤️

I wish we had this in Belgium. We have kebab places but they’re never 100% vegan. Maoz rocks!

Had a quick bite here, consisting of a falafel wrap and fries, with choice of salads and dips. Really nice food and all vegan. Close to the Melkweg venue for a pre gig bite to eat.

Make your own, except after it’s been made - Edit
A falafel pita here is bread, falafel and lettuce only. If you want extra, you have 30 free options that you then have to squeeze into the mouth of the already-made pita, resulting in a pita that’s half topping and half bone dry

Good late night snack - Edit
We went there late at night and it was great that they were still open. The fries were okay but definitely not the best I’ve had. It was great though to have vegan mayonnaise with them. (But be prepared for A LOT of mayonnaise)
