This is a great mediterranean spot not far from downton. The platters with hummus and baba ghanouj are must-tries; we got both the one with meat and without meat, and they were great. The chicken shawarma wrap was good but somewhat small given what you pay for. Also, note that you need to go up to the counter to order.
It seems like this spot is a staple in the area; two old friends met up for food while we were there. We overheard one of them saying they’d been coming for decades.

I had high expectations for this place, but it didn’t quite live up to them. The food was just okay—not exceptional—and I personally think Olive Tree in Milford does a better job with Middle Eastern cuisine. They offered outdoor seating in the summer, but it got uncomfortably hot, and the seating itself wasn’t very comfortable. Inside, the restaurant felt a bit dingy and uninviting. On top of that, the staff weren’t particularly friendly or helpful.

This restaurant is a bit of a mixed bag. On the one hand, the employees were kind, the atmosphere was great, and they had a sizable vegan menu. Almost half of the food options are vegan, the menu itself has a full vegan section, and they mark which pastries/desserts are vegan as well. I also did not run into small portions as other reviewers noted. I ordered the falafel plate, hummus/pita, and some pistachio baklava. They were all prepared quickly and were fair amounts.
The problem for me was that in decades of eating hummus, I have never encountered hummus this acidic. The hummus tasted as though a lemon had been squeezed directly into it. I mostly just gave up on it and ate the pita plain. The falafel was good, though nothing out of the ordinary. The baklava was sweet and deciduous.
So, overall, I would recommend this place to any vegan looking got some Middle Eastern/Mediterranean fare. I just might warn them to steer clear of the hummus.

Mamoun’s:
A Falafel Spot Worth the Hype
Mamoun’s is hands down one of the best falafel spots on the East Coast. I visited Connecticut from Maryland during Covid, and my friend insisted we stop by. He said it was really good—but to be honest, I didn’t put too much stock in his excitement. As a true foodie, I’ve learned that everyone’s taste buds aren’t created equal, and that’s okay. I went in with zero expectations.
But this food? It knocked my socks off.
Everything was fresh. The owner was warm and welcoming. The hummus had a little zing to it that I still think about. The salad? Crisp and flavorful. The falafel? Perfection.
Ever since that day, I’ve been dreaming about Mamoun’s. I promised myself that before this summer ends, I’ll be back. In fact—I’m planning a full-on falafel tour.
Because when the food is that good, it deserves a journey.

Love coming to eat here when I’m in New Haven. Was in the area for work so I decided to stop by. Got the chicken shawarma with veggies and their spicy sauce which is delicious. Got the baba ganoush with pita which came out hot and crispy and great to dip.

The best falafel in the city! Its flavorful and loaded with sauce. In terms of location it’s in shade and in a nice part of town making it nice to sit on a bench and eat it outside. Its affordable to whenever I am broke and lazy this is where I go beacuse it’s super affordable. I also don’t speak the language the music is in but they always are playing bangers.

The syrian lamb plate is one of the most pathetic things I’ve ever received from a restaurant. It is basically a 4 oz (if that) terrible tasting lamb puck in a watery, lifeless cream sauce. It is served alongside about 10 cold pieces of pita. That is it! They charge $24 for it on Uber Eats too! I knew this place was known for small portion sizes and had been losing its grace with the people of New Haven but this was just unbelievable.

The place is very good place for Middle Eastern cuisine. The falafel is very good. They have a place to set outdoors that is great. The main problem is that they say they have shisha, but its not good. Just don’t order it. It took them 40 min to bring it, and one of the two that we ordered just didn’t worked so we managed to smoke only from one.
Still the food is very good.. loved it.

If you have tried Mamoun’s in NYC or NJ, don’t bother going to this one. It is not at all similar to the Mamoun’s you will get in NYC or NJ. The baba ganoush did not have much eggplant in it, it was sour and had too much parsley. The chicken kebabs were dry and served just warm. The falafels (which tend to be my favorite) were greasy, cold, and did not taste like the iconic Mamoun’s falafels. Do yourself a favor and skip this place. Honestly it isn’t worth your time or money. The restaurant is rundown, not well kept. The outdoor seating area tables were dirty. The bathroom didn’t have soap.
