Kebab near Boston, MA

“I love their chicken shawarma, homemade bread, and yes, how did I forget to mention their garlic bread! Best garlic bread I have ever tried… they make everything fresh! You won’t see anything that is reheated. They have their own authentic version of the taste… which will make you glued to come here every time.“

“Stopped by Boston Doner near TD Garden and really enjoyed the food. I wanted to try a couple of their specialties, so I ordered the Lamb Adana Wrap and the Boston Doner Wrap. The Lamb Adana was delicious, with nicely seasoned grilled lamb that had a great smoky flavor. The fresh vegetables added a nice crunch, and the creamy tzatziki complemented the spices in the meat well. The Boston Doner Wrap was just as satisfying, packed with flavorful doner meat, tomatoes, onions, pickles, and fries, all brought together by a tasty garlic sauce. The combination of savory meat, tangy pickles, and crispy fries worked really well. I also ordered their Homemade Yogurt Drink (Ayran), a traditional Turkish drink that’s slightly tangy, creamy, and refreshing. It goes perfectly with the richly seasoned meats and made the meal feel even more authentic. Both wraps were filling, flavorful, and a great way to enjoy some classic Turkish street food.

The restaurant itself has a casual, welcoming atmosphere and is conveniently located near North Station and TD Garden. The place was clean and well maintained, and the staff was genuinely friendly and attentive. Service was quick, which is always appreciated when you’re looking for a good meal without spending too much time waiting. It’s nice to find a place serving Turkish favorites in this part of Boston, especially one with such a good variety of kebabs, wraps, and traditional dishes. I really enjoyed everything I tried and would definitely come back to explore more of the menu, particularly their İskender and other kebab specialties.“

“The food is excellent with large portions. The rice pudding is a must have!“

“We usually order from a different Shawarma place in Somerville, but decided to give Sam's a try. The food was very good, and in good sized portions. They were good about following requests to leave things out of the wraps. Note that they do the style with fries on the side rather than in the wrap. My only complaint is that they list some, but not all, of the ingredients on their site. So if you have things you can't eat, I definitely recommend calling them to double check. My partner can't do creamy sauces, and they listed tahini sauce but not garlic sauce in the lamb/beef shawarma, which ended up being a problem. Not a huge thing, just annoying that they make it look like everything is listed when it isn't.“

“EXCELLENT Lahmajoun. Probably the best we’ve had. Also tried the falafel plate and a spinach pie. Portions are huge! Definitely going back.“

“This place is a must if you want halal. Excellent choices for middle eastern/Mediterranean style foods, and some excellent sandwich’s including a spicy fried chicken sandwich and a tasty smashburger. The hospitality is overwhelming, service is above and beyond.“

“Best Mediterranean food I've had in decades. Everything was delicious. Couldn't be better. I had the kofra kebab plate, ground beef with lamb, rolled and fried, salad, hummus, garlic sauce and tabouli. Look it up. I'm probably not touching it all the great aspects of it. Every part of it was exceptional, full of freshness and taste, each part distinctive in taste and presentation from another part. Not the usual commodification of Mediterranean food present in most imitative restaurants. So many spots are predictable, bland, food feeling like it sat around waiting to be served and unremarkable in every way. Not here. A full size salad, bright, light tastes with just the right amount of a delicate dressing. Not just the typical hunks of greens and ingredients thrown together with no soul and doused in some soybean oil based imitation.It was not the thick flour pita pocket that despite rips apart when you try to lightly stuff it with your salad or grape leaves or tabouli, despite being the thickness of baseball glove leather. This pita pocket was as thin as it could be, not the chewy baseball glove we usually get, yet completely resilient. It held everything I stuffed into it.“

“If you are looking for outstanding authentic Egyptian food please try Kushari. The food made to order is consistently delicious and service is over the top. Plenty of free parking is another bonus!“

“The food was delicious and the stuff was very nice and very cautious with the virus situation.“

“After quickly sifting in and out of the other overly trendy Brookline Village restaurants the other day, we stumbled (again after 20 years) into Anatolia. Humble, unpretentious, tables filled with friends and families not glued to their phones, we were seated by a lively attentive and excellent waitress. The Anatolian red wine was excellent, the lemon rice soup a nice starter, I like the fried liver cubes (not for my non offal eating wife :/), and the the mantis- little dumplings with a lamb chunk served with yogurt utterly scrumptious. And the ground lamb kebab - it so outclasses the dry bland stuff in many Mediterranean style joints around Greater Boston. Finished with a delightfully light, flaky baklava with just a touch of sweetness and ground pistachios - a nice adult dessert finally! Not a showy place - solid home style cooking. Bring some friends and share lots of plates!“
