"With locations in Atwater Village and DTLA, there’s a decent chance you’re not too far from Dune’s fantastic falafel sandwich, made on house-baked flatbread, or their hummus plate. So take full advantage. And if you’re ordering from there, why not throw in a mezze plate while you’re at it, and maybe a chicken shawarma, too? Because if there’s one thing we’ve learned over the last few weeks, it’s that there’s no such thing as over-preparing. Available for takeout and delivery." - kat hong
"Dune might appear at first to be just another neighborhood falafel joint, but this small shop has achieved legendary status around these parts, and for good reason. The falafel is fluffy and moist—and we love their fried chicken shawarma and lamb plates too. The interior of this place is basically just the counter where you order, but their front patio is exactly where you want to be eating your Mediterranean feast." - arden shore, sylvio martins, brant cox
"Dune might appear to be just another neighborhood falafel joint, but crowds form outside this tiny Atwater for a reason—there’s not one miss on the menu. That includes their top-tier falafel, silky sides of hummus, grilled lamb plates, and their pièce de résistance: the fried chicken “shawarma” sandwich, which is easily one of the best in LA. The space is essentially a to-go window, but if you want to stay and eat your Mediterranean feast, there’s a big front patio where everybody stays and watches the sunset.

"New kid on the Glendale Blvd block, over the counter falafel joint Dune has fast become a neighborhood favorite for lunch and dinner crowds. Take your east coast friends who bemoan LA’s lack of quality falafel, and watch them eat their words along with an incredible falafel sandwich on delicious cooked-to-order pita bread. We come here as often as we can and it’s generally the first suggestion for “what should we do for lunch today?” Brave the line, get a hummus plate and a rosemary lemonade with your falafel sandwiches and enjoy!" - Brains on Fire
"Dune is an order-at-the-counter Mediterranean spot with locations in Atwater Village and Downtown. While you really can’t go wrong with anything on the menu, your first order of business should be the green herb falafel sandwich, which involves perfectly crisp falafel on house flatbread topped with hummus, marinated onions, tahini sauce, and shoestring potatoes. This is a wrap we’ll drive out of our way to eat. Order: Falafel Sandwich, $9.50." - brant cox
