Falafel Inc

"Falafel Inc. offers a $6-and-under menu featuring falafel, hummus, bowls, za’atar fries, and sides made daily. Billed as the first “fast-casual food social enterprise franchise,” customers help feed a refugee in need with every purchase. Its newest area location sits in Arlington." - Tierney Plumb, Tim Ebner

"Besides knowing that every time you eat at Falafel Inc. you’re helping the world (the restaurant is partnered with the World Food Programme and donates a large chunk of their proceeds to charity), you also selfishly come here for the price. The Mediterranean restaurant known for its bare bones interior and wooden paneling has three locations in the city: Foggy Bottom, Georgetown, and the Wharf. Everything is under $6 (sandwiches are $4 and bowls are $5), so it's perfect if you're on a tight budget until pay day. The zaa’tar fries are savory and salty, the falafel is fresh, and their habibi sauce is, as we like to say, is love at first taste. " - Omnia Saed

"The neighborhood is also home to philanthropically minded Falafel Inc." - Gabe Hiatt

"This soon-to-be chain is one of the best fast-casual bets around, both in price and in its mission. A basic pita with falafel and vegetables at Falafel Inc. runs $3 with hummus an additional $1. The za’atar fries make a solid accompaniment, as do all the complimentary sauces on hand for dipping and topping. Each meal purchased goes towards helping feed refugees in need." - Travis Mitchell
