Falafel Brothers, Shibuya PARCO Branch - Making Vegan Food Fresh and Fun

Shibuya Parco branch
Falafel Brothers got its start in 2017 when the owners decided to make and sell traditional falafel in Tokyo. Made of spices and chickpeas, falafel in itself is vegan, and the Falafel Brothers, Amnon and Daisuke, wanted to keep it plant-based and vegan-friendly while cooking something that would satisfy to all diners––vegan or not. The first shop in Roppongi was a success, leading to expansion.

While falafel and traditional Middle Eastern cuisine is still rare in Tokyo, it is becoming more popular. Falafel Brothers is featured in numerous magazines and publications in Japan, and the owners continue to remain busy and passionate, expanding the menu and the restaurant to allow more people to taste delicious falafel.

Falafel Brothers currently has three locations in Tokyo: Shibuya, Roppongi, and Ebisu. The Shibuya branch opened in late 2019, and is located inside the Shibuya PARCO, a large shopping mall with department stores, dining, and entertainment facilities.

Head up to the seventh floor to get to Falafel Brothers––the restaurant is hard to miss with its funky, bright colors and cute falafel motifs throughout. Most of the restaurant's funky interior is handmade by the owners, including the one-of-a-kind falafel pita table.

Ordering at Falafel Brothers

Falafel Brothers in Shibuya has a large menu featuring falafel in all types of dishes, from pita bread sandwiches to salad bowls. In addition to the English menus here, all the employees speak English.

There are also side dishes like vegan gyoza and desserts––like colorful raw vegan cakes––and drinks, including craft beer and a one-of-a-kind hummus smoothie.

After deciding your main dish, customize what goes into it: either lettuce, spinach, and kale for your base vegetable, two toppings, and a sauce. The toppings are playfully named, and include offerings like pickled carrots, purple cabbage, and baba ganoush (eggplant paste). Tahini sauce is available in a few varieties––even in a spicy version.

Pictured above is the Falafel Brothers' Sandwich (1,050 yen for full size) with kale, topped with purple cabbage and carrots, and the spicy Tahini sauce. Made fresh and to-order, the blend of flavors from the soft pita bread, sauce, crispy falafel, and crunchy vegetables are very satisfying. The spicy Tahini sauce is not overly spiced, and adding a hint of heat to the sandwich. Anyone craving falafel will be overjoyed with this hearty, healthy choice.

For those who are feeling especially hungry, Falafel Brothers offers a great value set that comes with a drink of your choice and side of seasoned French fries, lotus root chips, or soup (1,450 yen for full size). The French fries in the set pictured above have the right amount of spicy and salty flavors.

Sides like soy meat karaage, vegan gyoza, or a hummus plates make a tasty addition for those sharing with friends or family. Pictured above is the soy meat karaage (700 yen) on a bed of lettuce, topped with Tahini sauce. The karaage is juicy and flavorful.

Try Hummus Drinks and Raw Vegan Desserts

A variety of soft drinks and craft beer is available to customers, as well as something you won't find anywhere else: the Humoothie, or hummus smoothie (700 yen, pictured above). Mixed with sweet fruit juice, the hummus create a smooth and creamy smoothie you wouldn't believe is made of chickpeas. The straws that come with all beverages are metal, showing the consideration that the restaurant has for the environment.

For desserts, choose from a selection of picture-perfect raw vegan cakes. Pictured above is the Fantastic Choco Turmeric cake (550 yen), that gets its bright yellow color from the turmeric. It is not overly sweet and has a creamy texture, topped with a sprinkle of crunchy nuts. There is also a selection of several other cakes to enjoy.

Falafel Brothers in Shibuya PARCO serves a large variety of mouthwateringly-delicious dishes and also includes seasonal items. With a friendly environment and so much selection, every meal here is fun and new.
