What is falafel?

Falafel is a Middle Eastern classic made from ground chickpeas blended with herbs and spices, shaped into balls or patties and fried until crisp outside and tender inside. At Princess Pita we season ours with our in-house spice blend and serve it with tahini sauce. It is vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free, so it works for many diets.

We are a Palestinian Mediterranean family restaurant with 25 years serving the Phoenix metro community. Everything on our meat menu is halal too — see our halal page for certificates.
