Falafel Nessya — Restaurant in Playa del Carmen

Such a great spot and great value. I had the Israeli salad (35pesos) and hummus bowl (80pesos). A delicious, satisfying and filling meal full of protein and fresh nutritious food. Excellent choice for vegans and everyone else.

They've also got a selection of fresh fruit waters, I had a really refreshing guava one while waiting for a table. It's a popular spot and while service is really quick, be prepared to wait for a table (it's worth it) or they do take-away.

When I went it was busy but I could wait 15 mins for a table, which I did so, just as a table became available a group of girls walked ahead of me and were given the table I had been promised. Everyone else noticed the mistake, including the lady who'd promised me the table but nothing was done and kindly another customer finished their meal and gave me their seat. I think it was an innocent mistake where it was so busy and I'd absolutely go back again if I had more time in...

I have come here many times since 2021 but this time I got food poisoning, which was shocking. I am not sure if any other customers who ate here on Feb 14, 2024 (evening time) also got sick, but I’m mostly posting here to see if the other people had the same experience. This was the only place I ate out on Feb 14. About 1-2 hours after eating, I started to feel ill and threw up almost the entire night. I have never had a problem here before but I am wondering if on Feb 14, sauce was sitting out longer than it should or the salad was washed in the water maybe. I am posting this so the store can make sure all of the items in the plato completo is safely prepared, as I wouldn’t want anyone else to go...

I hate to give this such a low score, because this is genuinely my favorite food in all of Playa. However, I found out one of the employees is very insecure and unprofessional. Although we've been nothing but plesant to him, and gave them tons of business, he became jealous of my date, started gossiping to her about me, and tried to ask her out. Of course my date was disgusted and told me about that, so now we are conflicted about ever returning.

If you eat here you will notice one employee looks miserable, please avoid him if you can, I don't trust him to make...
