AI Summary

Brunswick's cult falafel counter. crispy, herb-packed falafel and rotating salads locals swear by.

Deliberately no-frills counter-serve eatery on Sydney Road; reviewers describe it as humble and low-key rather than styled, with a genuine, community feel.

Rotating daily salads and dips displayed at the counter before ordering, free water for dine-in guests, house zhoug and amba sauces, a dedicated gluten-free fryer, and a tahini brownie for dessert.

Rooted in Israeli and Middle Eastern falafel tradition; most reviewers praise its authenticity, though a few long-time patrons say quality and flavour balance have shifted from the venue's earlier years.

Most reviewers call it great value for generous, fresh portions, though a couple flag a recent price increase to around $14 for a single falafel pita and small surcharges like $2 for extra tahini.
