District Falafel — Restaurant in North Bethesda

Omg, District Falafel - what a real treat! As a Palestinian, I rarely eat at ME restaurants cause it's easier, less disappointing and always better to just go to mom's! My sister/friend introduced me to this place and I enjoyed it so much that I will even tackle the beltway to go into Bethesda from VA! The manager (M'hammad)/counter/table (Edwin?) staff were extremely nice, friendly, patient and just really kind! Pricing was quite reasonable & the same regardless of lunch/dinner - a real bonus. Easy parking, casual and just the right size inside. We had an amazing set of beautifully presented dishes before us incl: Adas soup (thinner than I'm used to, but SUPER delicious!), the falafel was so fantastic that I took a few dozen home to share w/family (will definitely try the spicier ones on next visit!), chicken shawarma & kifteh were nicely flavored & tender, and all the side dishes, hummus, baba ghannouj, salads, pickled items, pita bread hit the mark. Thank you for everything - Can't wait...

If you're a fan of bold flavors and fresh ingredients, District Falafel is a must-visit! From the moment you step in, the welcoming atmosphere sets the tone for a fantastic dining experience. The food is nothing short of perfection—tender and flavorful on the inside, with the perfect balance of spices.

Their variety of dips and toppings and sides makes every bite feel like a new adventure. Whether you're grabbing a quick bite or enjoying a leisurely meal, the quality and care that goes into each dish is undeniable. The staff (and owner) is friendly and attentive, adding to the overall positive vibe of the place.

If you're looking for a spot that serves authentic, mouthwatering Mediterranean cuisine, District Falafel should be at the top of your list!...

I really enjoyed eating here and will certainly come back again. It was my first time coming by because I needed something fast for my kid. I ordered a gyro and hummus appetizer for my kid. The hummus doesn't come with pita, so just ask for it. They give you a healthy potion of hummus for the appetitizer that you can share with several people. So next time I'll get a pita for myself. My gyro was tender, and the pita bread is the softest I've had. The customer service was excellent and friendly. Everyone there was eating was a repeat customer. It was obvious because the cashier was chatting with them. Restrooms were clean. They also have kibbeh, so I have to try that. A lot of the dishes are not served over rice, which is a...
