About Tamam

Tamam is a 100% vegetarian, Jewish plant-based eatery. This establishment is known for its delicious falafel, made with chickpeas and served in pita bread with white sauce, vegetables, pickles, and salads. The falafel is described as both crispy and fluffy, with great flavor. Customers praise the Everything Sabich Platter with falafel, noting that it is flavorful, satisfying, and not too heavy. The intensely spicy z'chug and refreshing salads continue to be favorites. Tamam also offers a unique Jewish mango juice. Although the dining space is limited, the storefront patio provides a comfortable spot for guests to sit and enjoy their meals while people-watching. The kind and easygoing staff contribute to the positive experience. The eatery is considered to have high-quality food that surpasses some high-end vegan options.

    The best falafel I’ve ever had in the United States. The staff was funny and friendly, the food was delicious, and the prices were very reasonable. Updated from previous review on 2026-01-13

    Delicious, light Mediterranean fare—highly recommend. The Everything Sabich Platter with falafel and the apricot drink, was absolutely perfect. Flavorful, satisfying, and not too heavy.

    Dining space is limited, but if the storefront patio is open, it’s a great spot to sit comfortably and people watch. A kind and easygoing staff.
