this is right in front of the amtrak waiting room--so if it is in a hurry before the train to make a prefabricated vegan mini-meal or baked falafel sandwich, then this place is for them. the falafel is not a good tasting, there is no place to sit - this is not a place to go out of the way. if they have a bit more time, they can go down or in direction 7th avenue to one of the two pret a mangers that are in penn station where eating is fresher and better tasting. but if they are in a hurry and have no more time before they run in their train, it is nice to have some vegan decisions.
Located just outside the Amtrak waiting room, this restaurant is convenient for grabbing a quick vegan mini-meal or baked falafel sandwich before catching your train. The falafel may not be the best tasting and there is no seating available, so it's not worth going out of your way for. If you have more time, it's recommended to check out one of the two Pret a Manger locations downstairs or towards 7th Avenue in Penn Station where the food is fresher and more flavorful. However, if you're rushing to catch your train and need some vegan options, this spot is a nice choice.
Went across street to penn station from Moynihan station, took less then 5 minutes,soup was cold no time to go back to ask them to microwave it ,normally very good 2 cups $14.00 disappointing ?

This was the worst falafel sandwich I have ever had. Every part of it - the falafel, hummus, wrap, and toppings - lacked flavor. It was filling, but that was about the only positive aspect.
The worst Falafel sandwich I remember. each component of the falafel, hummus, wrap and toppings was tasteless. it filled mine that it was.
The food is delicious and fresh, and the staff is friendly. I will definitely return next time I pass through Penn!Food: 5/5
