“Long line even late at night. Great falafel. Watm with fluffy pita. Everything is fresh. Great salad and tehini. Plenty of outdoor sitting. They also have shawarma and schnitzel and you can order in a plate.”
“Best shwarma in a LONG TIME The ratings are well deserved. Long lines, but worth the wait. Meat excellent, lafa breads equally good and the house special deep fried eggplant is simply amazing. Top #3 in Israel imo”
“Possibly one of the best meals I’ve ever had. Get the shawarma plate, they give u rice, falafel and eggplant with it! And pita. Unmatched taste. Would eat it every meal of my life if I could”

zeev fld★★★★I stood in line at Hakosem, where the air smelled of toasted spices and fresh herbs. A friendly cook handed me a hot, crunchy falafel sample that melted in my mouth instantly. My pita arrived stuffed to the brim with vibrant greens, creamy hummus, and their legendary fried eggplant. Finding a spot on a sunny bench, I took a massive bite and finally understood why everyone calls this place "The Magician." It was the most authentic, flavorful welcome to Tel Aviv I could have imagined.

Noah Schij★★★★★I’m hesitant to give a great review since it’s already pretty busy all the time and I frequent here. Omar is the best chef and if you can request him, it makes a difference the lawful and all the ingredients are top-notch in the value is exceptional. I think you won’t find a better bang for your shekel. Nothing fancy here lucky if you find a spot to sit, it’s gonna be very messy so have napkins ready
Aron Steg★★★★★You know you are going to have a good felafel when you have to queue to get a seat. This is Israel. There is felafel everywhere. Being considered one of the best here is something special. We ordered the felafel plate and boy was the felafel amazing. It's totally amazing that there can be such a wide chasm great felafel and really great felafel. This was really great felafel.
Rachele Laro★★★★★I ABSOLUTELY LOVED HAKOSEM! It was super busy but i found a place to sit and got their huge servings of hummus, friend eggplant, falafel, schawarma! Definitely too much food for one person, but i loved it! The hummus was spectacular! The falafels were green and crunchy! You get to make your salad and they have loads of sauces and tahina to dip your falafels! I dream of visiting again! My favorite spot in Tel Aviv🫶🏽❤️🔥
Nadav Gat★★★★★Food is amazing. Might be the best around. The person at the register has no patience for anyone or any questions Will still go back because its so good though
