Mamoun’s Falafel, a family-owned Middle Eastern institution from the Big Apple, will officially kick open the doors to its new West Village outpost this Saturday.
The location at 3839 McKinney Avenue is the first of a planned expansion into DFW, and it’s only the first location outside of the northeast for the chain. More outposts are planned for Chicago, Atlanta, and California, according to the restaurant’s press release.
The same delicious menu is making its way from New York including falafel, baba ganouj, hummus, and shawarma. The restaurant’s original Syrian recipes were first brought to New York by founder Mamoun Chater and have been in use since the eatery opened in 1971. The company is partnering with Cuisine Solutions, pioneer of the sous-vide cooking method, to ensure consistency across its new franchisees.
“We’ve been eager to open the Dallas location since the deal was first signed, so it’s exciting that we will finally be able to showcase Mamoun’s Falafel to the Dallas community,” said Raed Ghassani of Ghassani Bros, LLC, franchisee for the Dallas location.
Operating hours are Sunday through Thursday, 11 a.m. to 11 p.m., and Friday and Saturday, 11 a.m. to 3 a.m. The Dallas location’s grand opening party will begin at 11 a.m. on Feb. 10.
