Maoz Vegetarian - Edit
I'm a fan of the Maoz chain, so I made sure to stop by both locations during my Philly visit. Obviously they serve a few things, falafel sandwiches and fries. I always get the falafel sandwich and load it with veggies at the little veggie bar. I only recommend that you go during busier times to ensure you're getting fresher ingredients. Also, this location is located in the hip South street area, a great place to grab a quick bite while checking out the area.

Great option for late-night/cheap food/fast - Edit
You probably already know Maoz. If you don't, go to one as soon as you can. This one is in the heart of South Street and open late. There's not much seating, so that's tough when it's raining/snowing, but you get a lot of food for a cheap price, and it's not cheap quality. This is an easy spot to find and great if you're in a hurry. Definitely go here. The Tahini sauce is vegan (the other sauces aren't) and items on the salad bar are quite obvious whether they're vegan or not. The staff is also pretty knowledgeable.
Read morePros: All-vegetarian, Cheap, Fast

Overrated, but not bad - Edit
I've always been told that Maoz is the place to go for great falafel in the city. I was a bit disappointed! I can take it or leave it.

Great Place - Edit
I absolutely love this place. The food is great and very reasonable especially for South Street. I always get food from there and take it into Larry's because eveyone I go to South Street always wants to eat out on the patio at Larry's.
Read morePros: excellent food, good value
Cons: very small, confusing at first

Awesome. can't wait until you're in my home town. - Edit
I've only been here once, I was visiting from out of town, this place is great. The best vegan falafel I have ever had, it was great. Everything is vegetarian and it is easy to figure out the vegan options, the cook pointed out the vegan toppings and explained how things went for a out of towner. I loved this place. Is it perfect... no, but for a very filling meal that I can not feel bad about, I haven't done better yet. I wanted to order another one as soon as I was done but restrained myself when I was told that they are going to open a Maoz in Seattle, you can bet I'll be getting my veggie falafel fix there as soon as it opens. They have a great assortment of veggies, some of the people were just ordering from the salad bar and I can see why. I wish they had a better selection of drinks that were healthier, but they do have fresh juices so it's not all bad. Ok, it's not exactly health food, but for us veggies it is not a bad thing to splurge every once in a while and if you are feeling like a great meal that you will respect yourself for, hit this place up, seriously.

Soooo Goooood - Edit
The best falafel I've ever had! And the fried eggplant is amazing. The salad/toppings bar is really great, I'm partial to the cauliflower. I love Maoz and now they have a new location on Walnut street near 11th. It's true that there's almost no seating at the South street location but there's plenty of seating at the new one on Walnut.
Read morePros: Great food, Very friendly staff, Good location
Cons: Cramped, Limited seating

Something to Dream About... - Edit
My mouth waters when I think of their falafal and eggplant sandwiches. I live in New Jersey and a trip down there for the sandwich alone is worth the haul.
