Falafel King

Falafel King has become something of a fixture in Emory Village, a counter-service Middle Eastern spot that's kept the same faces coming back for years in a college-town area where turnover is otherwise the norm. Falafel is the dish regulars point to first, with shawarma close behind. Prices stay reasonable, and the combination has made it a local go-to rather than a destination restaurant — the kind of place that doesn't need to change to keep its following.
