MaozVegan in Burgwallen-Nieuwe Zijde

I recently tried the vegan food at Maoz and had a great experience. I ordered a salad bowl and pita bread with falafel, and everything tasted fresh and authentic. I really liked their self-service style where you can add as many vegetables as you want. The location is very convenient as it’s right near Amsterdam Central Station. Overall, delicious food and a very satisfying vegan option.thanks Sukhvinder ji and Nadia for great hospitality. Highly recommended.

The food is delicious, but the price is too high.

A filthy and expensive restaurant. Cleanliness is nonexistent. My advice: don't try it.

The falafel sandwich is great! They open the bread, put in hummus and 4 or 5 medium-sized falafel balls (almost small), then give it to you and you add whatever you like from the available toppings... vegetables, salad, pickles, hot sauce, tahini, and many other options. Thanks to them! 👍🏼👍🏼

The restaurant is nice, the falafel is good and a delicious change, but the service wasn't great.

Very rude guy at the counter. No sense of talking and keeps rushing. Avoid coming here unless no option.

Sooo...delicious! 🤩 We eat here every time we're in Amsterdam. Everything is freshly prepared. The salad bar is a bonus. And the fries taste much better here than at many other chip shops in Amsterdam. It's a shame this chain isn't in Germany. The best falafel ever is right here in Amsterdam.

Best place to eat pure vegetarian food in Amsterdam. The staff is very efficient and helpful. Nice spot in the heart of the city for vegan food lovers.

My goal was to eat vegan food. And it was really delicious, but I was surprised that I had to fill the pizza myself. The falafel was truly delicious. Everything was fresh and the service was friendly. The prices were reasonable. There are a few seats available.

These guys are so opportunistic and so greedy. The lady and the man there wanted to sell me a pita bread hand size for 8.50 Euros. The food is nice but can't tolerate these unethical activities making advantage of tourists. So ugly, shame!

Falafel with pita bread is delicious.

Incredible! Perfect for a simple vegan lunch or dinner. Full customisation to make your own perfect Pitta. Falafels with pomegranate sauce and tahini was off the scale!

Arrogant staff. Cannot make accomodation for extra paper for elderly.. worst service

The food was delicious. Being able to customize the pitas with falafel was fantastic. The tomato salsa and pomegranate sauce were excellent and I would definitely order them again.

The falafel was delicious, and the sandwich was large—one would easily fit one person. The Moroccan employee was polite, respectful, and professional; she even laughed when I asked her about the couscous that came with the salad. However, there was an Asian man who was disrespectful and made fun of the customers.

It's okay. They give you a round bread filled with falafel and chickpeas, and you choose your fillings: cucumber, onion, pepper, or assorted pickles. Then you add sauces, tahini, and pomegranate molasses. The price is one falafel with a Coke. From 12.50 euros.

When I was here, the employee started bragging a lot that the falafel is traditionally Israeli and that the ingredients were specially brought here from that country. Draw your own conclusions...

The staff's behavior was awful 👎🏻

The falafel is delicious and large, the restaurant is halal and reasonably priced, and it's worth a visit.

A delicious meal at a reasonable price. The portions were perfect (and customizable). Plus, the place was very clean.

It's absolutely delicious and the price is great, especially the idea of ​​you adding your own vegetables and sauces.

To say I enjoyed it would be an understatement. I was in Amsterdam for 5 days and just kept coming back. Great, fresh food (the best falafel I have ever eaten) at a reasonable price. Staff were nice, and the self service salad bar let you load up the pitta how ever much you like.

Very fast service with very tasty falafel. Staff were helpful and all the options in the salad bar were delicious.

Sadly my experience here was very poor, the staff were extremely rude, and lacked basic courtesy, i asked for a fork to eat my falafel in pita and they refused by not even saying but shaking their head.

Best ever Falafel Wrap, tried it with tahini, garlic sauce and amba sauce

Perfect fulfilling meal! You choose your own toppings & sauces. And don’t forget to get a fresh orange juice along your meal.

The falafel is good, but expensive, and that's the situation in Amsterdam – all high prices.

The best falafel sandwich I’ve ever had was the one with eggplant.

The food does not cater to me specific dietary requirements. Please cater to a wider demographic

The quality and taste of the food were beyond description, and the staff were extremely kind, friendly, and generous in their service. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting Amsterdam.

Stopped by for a quick meal and ended up having a great experience. The falafel was fresh and customizable exactly how I wanted. The lady stuffs were very friendly, welcoming and explained the menu options gently. Definitely one of the best falafel spots.

Food was good, but servers behind the counter were busier talking to their friends than helping the customers...

Had the best service at the last moment, thanks

If you want food poisoning, this is the place to go. The place should be shut down!!

4 years ago, this was the first vegan restaurant I tried in Amsterdam. I come back every year, I love it. It's good to stop and eat something quick. There is no restroom and no free wifi.

It's very tasty and filling; they give you your choice of base, and you select the rest from the salad bar.

Tasteless and left with immediate stomach ache - not worth the money

The staff was rude and disrespectful. The food was very average and expensive.

Very unfriendly staff. Both the two Asian men and the Arabic girl behind the counter. Very disrespectful. And bad, sickening food. Got sick after the meal. Gossiping in their own language.

We ate Maoz falafel pita. €8.50. They put falafel in a mini pita, and you add whatever you want from the open salad bar in front. It was quite filling and delicious.

Quick place for lunch. Huge sandwich!

4 euro for 6 pieces of falafel and Tahini sauce, it taste so good

The restaurant is incredibly dirty, and the food doesn't resemble falafel at all. It's a complete waste of money.

The falafel sandwich is delicious. The staff's service is excellent. However, they lack hygiene. They take money from customers and then handle the bread without washing their hands.

Delicious, I swear! And the portions are generous, of course. They have large and small falafel; I got both. You add your own salads and toppings, so the food is nice and clean, honestly. It's a bit pricey, but like other Arab restaurants, I'd go again.

Super good, healthy, and affordable. Get the salad bowl. They only have 3 small falafels which I thought was odd but then they told me I get to put all the salad toppings on that I want, it made sense. The falafels tastes amazing and all of the sides you add are delicious. Edited: come at night when they are throwing everything out. You get more falafels!

DON’T GO.!!!! DON’T GO I learn the hard way that not all maoz are the same. I walked in thinking it was the same as the one around the flower market ( it is not there anymore) I ordered a falafel and pay quickly. Only after paying I realized that the food on the salad bar looked old and not good. When I got my falafel the guy behind the counter HAD NO GLOVES. He put 3 little cold falafels and I complain that there were only three and there were cold.. He o said that was the right amount and offered to fry new ones. It was then that I notice the FRYING OIL WAS BLACK. I felt sick and ask for my money back and which the cooked and the cashier denied and say that they are not the same maoz. Indeed not all maoz are the sam. TTHEY HEALTH DEPARTMENT SHOUKD CHECK ON THIS ESTABLISHMENT.. MANY HEALTH VIOLATIONS HERE!

Super tasty falafel with unlimited salad and sauces if you choose the pita bread option. Very tasty fries as well.

It was absolutely delicious, and inexpensive! Everything is vegan and there's a great selection! So good, I highly recommend it! The service was quick; you choose your base (eggplant, falafel, hummus, or mushrooms) and then you add all the ingredients you want to the pita bread yourself.

The tall gentleman was very rude! It spoiled my experience of having food there. The girl across the counter was polite and professional. I will recommend to stay away from this restaurant.

Had an good and very large meal for a very decent price. Employees could be more nice, but I would be tired after a day full of tourists too, so it’s understandable.

Falafel was good, tasty, filling and fresh. I recommend trying one with Mushrooms or eggplant. Don't opt for a large falafel - difficult to eat and it becomes a mess. It's slightly higher price. The street is happening and just adds to the atmosphere. The staff were very rude. We had ordered 3 falafels, and I did grab fries from the next shop, and it was a street food place. I was asked to leave. You can also have fresh pressed orange juice.

Being in Amsterdam for the weekend, I was looking for a spot to have dinner, amd MoazFalafel caught my attention. I had falafel pita to which I added the fresh veggies and sauces that were on the counter. I also had fries with garlic sauce. Everything was chef's kiss! I highly recommend!!

It was my first time eating there. The place is very cramped. There's no handwashing area.

I loved this place, the falafel tasted amazing and the idea of adding the toppings ourselves is great

The fries were rather average, I regretted not ordering the falafel instead. Plus the staff were not super welcoming.

I loved it! The staff were incredibly friendly and the food was delicious. 100% RECOMMENDED.

Must eat place for the best falafel

Absolutely loved the food!! Great service too!

Loved the Falafel & Staff were extremely friendly :) Highly recommended.

Good food, good service, loved the salad bar

We wanted a quick bite to eat after arriving in Amsterdam, so we stopped by this place. We ordered small fries and a pita with falafel and eggplant. Paying an extra €1 gets you more falafel. After receiving the pita with falafel and grilled eggplant, you can choose your favorite toppings and create your own dish. We enjoyed the pita, but the fries were lacking something, but they weren't bad either. Overall, I recommend it, especially to those who don't eat meat.

Nice place to have something healthy near the Amsterdam railway station. A must stop place

Delicious pita bread with your choice of hot filling (the fried mushrooms are highly recommended!!) which you can then fill with fresh ingredients at the counter. Also very tasty fries, friendly service, and everything is vegan :)

😡Very poor experience at Maoz Vegetarian. Staff were rude, unhelpful, and clearly irritated As I wasn’t familiar with how it works, I asked a few simple questions, but the staff seemed irritated and unhelpful. When I asked about sauces, I was told to “look there” with attitude. When I asked about the salad, the staff member rudely shouted “self-service” instead of explaining politely. They also kept staring at us the whole time, which made us feel very uncomfortable. Definitely not a welcoming place.

Very disappointing experience. It was my first time at this restaurant, and the staff were very rude from the beginning — no greeting, no smile, and no polite communication. No one explained that the salad was self-service, so we were confused when they suddenly told us to go take it ourselves. When we politely asked them to cut the shawarma in half because we were sharing, they just said “no” with a bad attitude, without even saying sorry. On top of that, we found a hair in the food, which is completely unacceptable. Poor customer service and poor hygiene. I will not come back.

Just lovely! Fresh veggies, tasty falafel, huge portion and friendly staff:) I would definitely recommend. With fries and their amazing choice of salads and other toppings you can enjoy a full, well balanced vegan dinner 🍽️

It’s very nice and affordable price and food also very fresh and staff is lovely

It has nice vegan options, the service was good, and everything felt fresh. I think it was a bit expensive, but that may be due to the location it’s in. Overall, it’s a nice place for vegans and vegetarians.

Great falafel place, with excellent tasting falafel. ( maybe the falafel balls could be a little smaller to fit toppings?) But I would still stop back. I had the fries as well, also great for a snack.

Falafel without a hand washing area what is this?? Shocking The dish is dead dry....you get 4 balls under pressure without chips and even the salad bar has no saucers to take something...short cuts save you from dying...and how much does a dish cost? 11 euros so who would eat falafel not in Israel what is this service even on the face of a place

With 7€ you can eat almost as much as you can with their free refills for the falafel toppings. Super fast service and the guy there is always the kindest with the biggest smile on his face!

It tasted fresh and really good

Although we have many falafel in saudi arabai, but it’s a Great falafel, a bit expensive

I had a falafel sandwich with fried eggplant and hummus on pita bread for the salad and sauces, it's self service you add whatever you like in your pitta bread.

best meal i’ve had in amsterdam so much better than all those fries and tiktok places too ! 10/10

Delicious fresh falafel, well packaged and arrived hot.

Honestly, its rating on here fooled me. It’s not that good. The falafel salad is a below average deep fried falafel in a box that they just give you to pick ingredients for from the sad looking salad bar. The only job of the workers is to put falafel to deep fry 😭😭 like what. Such a weird concept. Uneasy feeling atmosphere

We came across Maoz Falafel about 15 years ago in Barcelona. There were two Israelis who managed the branch. We haven't seen any branches since. This time we came across it in Amsterdam and were thrilled, both because it was delicious then and also because it is vegetarian and suitable for kosher eaters. So, it turns out that there are several branches in Amsterdam. We ate at the branch closest to the central station. Let's start with the good: delicious (compared to falafel abroad, which is a lot). Let's continue with the less good: overly expensive, more than a meal at Burger King. Their meal came with a drink and chips, but the large chips we ordered turned out not to be very large. The "bowl" of falafel salad they sell only had three balls (!) And the last thing - the attitude of the seller there was clearly not pleasant, he really scolded me because I almost got confused and threw dirt into a bin that is meant for animals. The feeling was of selling at the maximum, minimum product and shame

I swear this was the best food we had in amsterdam. The falafel was amazing and the salads really fresh.

The best falafel in the world! I can't go to Amsterdam and not eat it.

Very good fries and kind staff.

Very good fries and kind staff.

Vegan Fries with spicy mayo was amazing combo, The fries were crispy. This place is completely vegan.

Put together your own vegan falafel sandwich after a night out, how good is that!? Chips with garlic sauce where a delight too! Very busy but worth it

Tried all their wraps, their mushroom shoarma was the best!

Best vegetarian quick food in Amsterdam central

Great pita falafel! You can add as many ingredients as you want, and the same goes for the sauces.

The falafel is very good, but the staff are bad and their service is rude.

I want to write an honest opinion to the owner about this restaurant. The food was really good and the orange juicy very delicious! Loved it!👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 The sellers were probably tired that’s why they seemed unmotivated. The tables need a little bit of more cleaning. All in all it was a good experience, thank you 👍🏼🙏🏼 will come again👍🏼

Worst food ever. Worst customer service

It's not the best thing, it's expensive for nothing.

I have eaten at the Maoz outlet in Barcelona multiple times. The food here is was equally good but the staff was very rude! There was 1 female and 1 male staff who were extremely snappy with customers and were not bothered to patiently explain the one time serve concept. Simply snapping at someone who tried to ask a question. Couple of different folks who had only bought fries and when back to top up the ketchup (not any special sauce) weren’t allowed to top up ketchup. Great food but don’t go in expecting good service.

It was bad experience first and last visiting starting from the man who was on cashier Very bad behavior lack to deal with customers And the price very expensive not as mentioned in menu I ordered 2 pita falafel and one coca and one water with fries and 4 pieces falafel 35 euro And the food was not fresh specially the eggplant My advice for the owner choose good staff if you want ur business success The day was Sunday 2015/11/23 07:20 pm But most important thing the behavior of the cashier

Not wearing gloves other are good

The falafel is delicious, and the potatoes are much better than those from shops specializing in potatoes.

Good food, lack of hospitality and cleanliness.

I love going there to get falafel everytime I'm in Amsterdam

Good, but not like it used to be. Maoz used to be one of my favorite places for fresh, vegetarian falafel bowls with unlimited toppings. Unfortunately, the quality has declined somewhat – the falafel tastes drier, and the selection of salads and sauces is less varied. The location remains convenient, and the prices are reasonable. However, the former burst of freshness and the generous side dishes are missing. Verdict: A solid fast-food option, but no longer the highlight it once was. Anyone who remembers Maoz from the past will be disappointed.

Great for a quick lunch. Filling, fairly healthy, and fast.
