About

Falafel Garden serves Israeli and Middle Eastern dishes, including falafel pitas, hummus sets, and clearly marked vegan lunch options. The old machiya has an upstairs dining area with river and mountain views, plus a garden terrace; reviews note that meals can take a while and prices feel high to some diners.
