I discovered this place without the benefit of recommendation--and really, it is pretty darn good. The tahini sauce is authentic and well done, and the bakhlava is very thoroughly doused in honey and delicious--and best of all, only a dollar. I'm a bit of a foodie and like to think I know my falafels. This stuff, esp. at peak hours when the falafel's going straight from the fryer to your pita, is probably the best deal in NYC. I even like the service--which is fast and stressed (I REALLY hope those guys are well paid) -- but actually very friendly, too. LOVE IT.
Pros: DELICIOUS, fast & cheap!, friendly (if you are)
Cons: tiny space... but it , has its charm
