Falafel King

I asked for a donair box instead of the chicken box and didn’t realize the lower price (compared to the platters) meant it comes with either meat and veggies or meat and rice — I assumed it included both.When I received my meal and mentioned my misunderstanding, I offered to pay for the rice since it was totally my mistake. Instead, they kindly gave me FREE extra rice that was just the perfect amount and even added a piece of baklava.Amazing people — so understanding and generous. I’ll definitely be back! And of course, the food was amazing.

Just had a falafel wrap now, and the young man who served me was warm, hospitable, and super friendly. The food was fresh and really filling. Definitely will visit again!

We ordered takeout from Falafel King during our vacation, and it was by far the best food we had during the trip. The order consisted of: [1] donair poutine, [2] donair wrap, [3] falafel wrap, and [4] beef shawarma platter. First off, Falafel King is very liberal with the amount of donair they layered on both the poutine and the wrap - they were loaded with so much delicious donair that it puts my Bay Area-local restaurants to shame. And it was good, like so tasty. For the poutine, the gravy was just right - it was neither overly watery or viscous.. The yellow potatoes used in the poutine were fried on demand, so they came out extra crispy. The beef shawarma platter was also pretty loaded with delicious meat, rice, veggies, and large-sized pita (the same ones used to make the wraps)

If you’re looking for a meal that’s delicious, filling, and packed with flavor, **Falafel King** is an absolute must-visit. I stopped by during a busy convention weekend, and their food not only satisfied my hunger but left me craving more. Every bite was a burst of freshness, spice, and hearty goodness—perfect for recharging between events.### **The Falafel: Crispy, Flavorful, and Perfectly Spiced**The star of the show was, of course, the **falafel**. Golden-brown on the outside, tender and herb-packed on the inside—no dryness here! Whether in a wrap or as part of a platter, each bite had the ideal crunch-to-softness ratio. The tahini sauce drizzled over it was creamy with just the right tang, elevating the dish even further.### **The Donair: A Meaty, Savory Delight**I also tried their **

Nice long narrow cozy place in the busy St Avenue pedestrian only. Clean washroom in the basement. Around closing time after 6 pm, I got to eat, they got to sell, got a veg falafel wrap. A big portion than usual I had tried, came with a sweet, but falafels were dry ( no moisture), hummus wasn't that great, felt the whole wrap a bit dry to eat. May be it is closing time, I don't know, but gave me stomach knots and couldn't sleep overnight after, struggle!May be one should try during busy times around lunch? 🙂 Seen good reviews but sad 😢 one for me. I hope next time it is better.

Great place, generous food porting, nice and clean place Good and tasty meat , fresh vegetable The place is landmark in downtown calgary

SOOOO Good, So much food and the baklava is a nice treat! Lots of options and the line moves really fast if you are in a hurry.

Got the vegetarian falafel sandwich here a couple of times. Liked it very much. Staff was very friendly. Eat in the restaurant and they threw in baklava complimentary. That was also very tasty.

Some of the best shawarma in the city! My go to spot. My only complaint is that they aren’t open on weekends.

I love the donairs here - they are huge, great ingredients, good price, great service. I recommend a donair with everything accompanied by a chocolate milk.
