The crunchy golden balls of fried chickpea and parsley at JERUSALEM BAKERY ALPHARETTA, however, are definitely worthy.

Although its name has changed and the interior has undergone a much-needed redecoration, ALI’S MEDITERRANEAN is still a one-man operation run by owner Fakhir Ali. Crunchy, earthy and deeply spiced, Ali’s falafel gained a devoted following when the restaurant was formerly known as Sub & Shish Kabob. Cram your pita with the shaped and fried-to-order falafel, lettuce and hummus or baba ghanoush and you will be amazed by just how glorious the seemingly lowly chickpea can be.

Lawrence’s is a cool, dark oasis where, for very reasonable prices and excellent service, you can furnish yourself with a feast. Order the vegetarian maza and a small Greek salad, and you’ll be feeding from a minimum of five plates: salad (with feta and black olives), babba ganoush, hummus, falafel, rice-stuffed grape leaves plus a basket of fresh, warm pita bread. Lawrence’s falafel is crispy, but not over-fried or oily. An order comes with four falafel, draped in yogurt and nicely tempered with lemon juice.

Olive Bistro (Permanently Closed)
Section » Print Features » Special Issue » Best of Atlanta » 2000 » Oral Pleasures » Critics Pick
With their crisp exterior, and warm and nutty flavor, the falafel croquettes served at this tiny, sleeper of a bistro, are second to none. Served in a fresh and fluffy pita, the sandwiches are tucked with lettuce and doused with a markedly tangy tahini. Located inside 7 Stages.
