Al Basha Mediterranean Restaurant prepares falafel as fried chickpea pieces that can be ordered in wraps or on plates with accompaniments like salads, rice, and sauces. Their falafel is noted for a well-seasoned crust that stays crisp, giving a satisfying bite when combined with soft pita and cool toppings. As a main component of their vegetarian offerings, the portioning allows diners to build a full meal around the falafel rather than treating it as a side. Reviews that specifically call out the falafel on First Avenue suggest that it holds its own among the restaurant’s broader lineup of Mediterranean dishes.
