Saed’s Falafel — Restaurant in Nelson

We ordered the falafel slouvaki (with extra falafel) and we enjoyed it so much we bought another! It was so tasty, the falafel was perfectly fried, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The hummus with olive oil and the pita bread was incredible. Overall the dish was perfect! Tasted super fresh and authentic. One of the best we’ve had around the world. We were equally impressed with the baklava which we took to go. And it was vegan.. enjoyed it! Thank you so much!

Outdoor seating available. On road parking...

Saed’s Falafel is amazing! Cannot recommend more. Best souvlaki I've had anywhere in NZ. Saed is super lovely and we could not recommend his service or food more. Being based in Kirby Lane is also epic, and to top it off, there are vegan options available too! Hubby had the Chicken Souvlaki, with homemade garlic aioli, hot chilli and chips! I had the Falafel Souvlaki with Tahini and Chilli and it was delicious. Homemade falafel cooked fresh, fresh salads, soft fresh pita bread... How good! Thank you...
