L’As du Fallafel is a lively, always-buzzing spot in the Marais and easily one of the most popular street food stops in Paris. We tried the chicken shawarma, lamb and turkey shawarma, along with their house hot sauce, fries, and an Israeli beer. Everything hit the mark—the wraps were packed, juicy, and easily among the best we’ve had anywhere. The chicken shawarma in particular stood out for its flavor and freshness, while the hot sauce added a great kick without overpowering the food. The fries were simple but satisfying and worked perfectly alongside the wraps. The atmosphere is fast-paced and energetic, with a constant mix of locals and tourists, and it’s usually packed, which adds to the experience. Service was friendly despite the crowds and the quick turnover. A must-visit for anyone craving a generous, flavorful, and satisfying falafel or shawarma experience in Paris.
As a vegetarian spending ten days in Paris, I was spoilt for choice for patisserie and bonbons but was struggling to find flavourful veggie friendly savoury foods. Food - This was the place for me. Spicy, creamy sauces, hot crispy falafels and soft pillowy bread. Location - Located in the heart of the historic Jewish quarters Le Marais, this shop is insanely popular yet surprisingly cheap and the queues move fast. Even though it’s not a restaurant ambiance, I found a nice table nearby to share with strangers and I quite enjoyed that. NOTE : They take only cash but there’s an ATM nearby if you forget. This happened with me so when I returned after getting the cash, the staff was polite enough to serve me first as the queue was now much longer and I didn’t have to go all the way back again.
Stopped in for lunch and waiting in line to experience the Falafel. Quite good, and the service is great considering the amount of people they are serving throughout the day. My partner and I both ordered the Pita Sandwich Special falafel vegetarian sandwich. Packed full with fresh falafel, cabbage with tahini sauce and a few pieces of eggplant. That sandwich was good, fun experience.
Sometimes you wonder what all the hype is about and why people would stand in line just for food. Luckily today there was no line and we had an amazing experience having falafel wraps. Service was great. Food was excellent and prices are amazing! Trust me; the line, the wait, the hype…yes WORTH IT!
L'As du Fallafel is definitely one of the more popular falafel spots in Paris, and after trying it I can see why. The falafel was really tasty — fresh, flavorful, and packed with ingredients. The portions were good and the sandwich itself was satisfying. Since it's well known, expect a crowd and some waiting, but it’s worth trying at least once if you're in the area and want a classic Paris food stop beyond the usual cafés and bakeries.
