The Story Behind Falafel House

At Falafel House, every bite tells a story of tradition, resilience, and the enduring taste of home.

The story begins in the bustling streets of Homs, Syria, where Hosam and his brothers, Abdulla, Mohamad, and Mahmoud, grew up surrounded by the art of making falafel. Their uncles, masters of the craft with over 20 years of experience, had perfected the recipe—crispy on the outside, tender and flavorful on the inside, and always made with love. Under their uncles’ watchful eyes, the brothers learned not only the secrets of creating authentic Syrian falafel but also the values of hard work, hospitality, and community.

Then came the war. It uprooted their lives, forcing the brothers to leave the land they loved and seek refuge in a new country. With heavy hearts but unshakable determination, they arrived in Tampa, carrying memories of their home, their family, and the flavors that defined their childhood.

As they began to build their new lives, they found themselves longing for the taste of authentic Syrian falafel. It wasn’t just food—it was a connection to their roots, a comfort in times of change, and a reminder of their family’s legacy. They quickly realized they weren’t alone. Tampa, with its vibrant community, was missing something special: a taste of the real, authentic falafel they had grown up with.

That’s when the idea for Falafel House was born. The brothers saw an opportunity not just to bring the authentic flavors of Syria to Tampa but to share a piece of their story and culture with the community. Drawing on their uncles’ time-honored recipes and their own passion for creating unforgettable meals, they set out on a mission: to deliver the most authentic, flavorful falafel this side of the Mediterranean.

Today, Falafel House is more than a falafel trailer. It’s a celebration of tradition, family, and resilience. Every falafel we serve is a testament to our journey, crafted with the same care and precision our uncles taught us, using only the freshest ingredients and spices.

When you visit Falafel House, you’re not just enjoying incredible food—you’re becoming part of a legacy. You’re tasting the authenticity of a recipe perfected over decades, born in Syria, and brought to life here in Tampa. You’re supporting a dream forged in the face of adversity and inspired by the belief that the best things in life—like great food and strong communities—are meant to be shared.

Come experience the difference. At Falafel House, we don’t just serve food—we serve a story, a tradition, and a taste of home.
