Emperor of Falafel

These guys are falafel machines. The operation here is very simple—it almost looks like they are cooking over a camp stove, but they pump out the falafels like they’re going out of business. The place seems very sanitary. The falafel themselves are the best I have had in Saudi. They are extremely crisp on the outside—great texture. I also love along the toppings, the various pickles, herbs, etc. The falafel sandwiches are ridiculously cheap and fairly large. Each sandwich is 4 riyal. When they rang us up, we decided to add more sandwiches to our total fearing they might be small at that price. This was not the case. I ate one and was full. However, since I had bought myself 3, I pushed through number 2. That is probably more than I should have eaten. The one big critique for this place is the bread. They need to use better bread. The pita bread used is below average and not super fresh. They split the pita at least so you are not overloaded with that bread, but I think a better bread would make this place a Khobar landmark. Might I suggest a saj-like option, similar to the shrak bread in Jordan. Did I mention they have a drive-they window? Ok, it’s more of a walk up window, but still.

The best falafel 🥙 I've ever tried, an original recipe, crispy falafel pieces that crunches while you eating the sandwich.

6 SAR without eggs & 7 SAR with them.

That's the perfect pricing for such a perfect restaurant.

Took Careem directly to the Emperor of Falafel as my first trip to Al Khobar and was not disappointed. Delicious with great taste and a great team. Shukraan jazilaan.

One of our fav places for falafel sandwich.. you can customise it acc to your taste as well.. we always have the spicy with egg. (Sar6)
It is pretty heavy and filling as well. It’s a bit difficult to get parking right in front of it.

Clean Falafel restaurant with friendly staff. On top of that, they may have the best falafel in the city 👍👍

One of the best falafel sandwich I have ever tasted.

The best Falafel maker in the COUNTRY. Amazing taste. Crispy & full of flavor. Clean & simple restaurant. Highly recommended

One of the best places for falafel sandwiches in Saudi. Really great one. For the last 6 years, been going here, all the way from Jubail, which speaks how great the falafel are. Especially when they are taken right from the boiling oil 🤤🤤
Do try it 💖

One of the top falafel in alkhobar. Most the time the place is over crowded. The taste is awesome. Quality of the product is really nice. They use really very nice oils. I really like the falafel from here

Best falafel in Khobar and only serves falafel u will be impressed how they operate

Best falafil of Khobar by a long shot.

Best falafel 🥙 sandwich in town.

Highly recommended. Best Falafel in Alkhobar!

They really do stand for their name 'the EMPEROR of Falafel' the taste is just terribly marvellous not to mention the fact that every thing is fresh and made in front of your eyes. The friendly nature of all the staffs will excite you, this is truly one of the best restaurants I have visited in Saudi Arabia. I will DEFINITELY DEFINITELY recommend this place to who wants to enjoy every bite of their Falafel..😊😊😊

An expat for 8 years haven't loved any other falafel like the ones you get here. The falafel sandwiches taste great and can be customised to your taste. One sandwich some loose falfels and a drink there is your dinner. Be prepared for waiting. But totally worth. Definitely a must try

Their falafel is so delicious and one of the best in khobar, everybody must try, staff and service also so good. They will customize your falfel as needed

Economic fresh Falafel here.

Here u can get ur self the original tasty falafel, Old & Gold.

You can never go wrong with this place. After my pathetic Kufa Chicken experience which left me hungry I ended up here and what an amazing falafel sandwich it is. The only problem is the parking which is beyond their control. Beware of the tow truck which is sniffing cars without ticket and pick them up in a minute

Best falafel in Khobar and Dammam area !
The whole mix and flavor of mint leaves is stunning.

Ironically they are way better than so many Egyptians and Syrians restaurants.
