Average food overall. Can do better with flavoring the meats and the sides. Good job keeping the line during lunch going.

If you're looking for a Mediterranean-inspired spot for lunch here in the downtown area, there are plenty of options, with Pita Thyme being a more local and authentic option than, say, Cava.A kefta kebab plate, for example, was a solid value at $13.99, not just because it offered a decent portion of char-broiled ground lamb and but also because it came with three sides. I chose the quinoa, hummus, and baba, all of which paired well with the kebabs and were authentic and nourishing. Meanwhile, I saved a side of falafel for later in the afternoon which held up well after refrigeration and reheating, and which also tasted authentic.My online order was ready for me before I arrived. The folks here seemed friendly and sharp, and this looks like an inviting place for a quick sit-down meal too. A solid find thanks to a search of my Yelp app!

Food is good quality with pleasing flavor. Service is fine. This is a perfect lunch spot that delivers on quality flavorful dishes that are easy to bring back to the office. I highly recommend this place. The baba ghanouj is exceptionally good for a fast casual place like this.

Food is good, priced well.If you order online during lunch rush, be warned you order might not be ready on time.The garlic toum is made with preminced garlic and you can taste the garlic water. skip it and get the regular white sauce imo

Delicious food, fast, friendly service, and generous portions. I got a falafel plate for around $12. Comes with 3 big falafel, a choice of 3 sides, and a piece of pita bread. I saw another review claiming there were worms in the food so for some reason I had to go try it myself! Ha. They aren't worms and I don't know how someone would assume they are worms. The menu literally says "vermicelli rice" and it's delicious. Everything I got was really tasty and surprisingly I couldn't finish it (a rare occurrence). The falafel probably could've been a little more crispy, but that's also tough to do without frying it once I order, and then it takes a lot longer to get my food - so I'm okay with the trade off. The hot sauce and tahini on top were perfect. I will be back because the other sides also looked tasty. Glad to have found this lunch spot!

Always consistent. I usually get a chicken shwarma plate, tabouli, hummus, rice. Great standard lunch place I got to pretty much every other week. Always good.
WORMS IN FOOD.... SANITATION HAZARD!!!!!I came here because they're one of the closest places downtown with good reviews. I ordered beef shawarma and asked multiple times if it was gluten free. They just stared at me bewildered and finally said no, the beef doesn't have flour. I get this plate and it looks like there's spaghetti in the rice. As I continue eating it I notice these strings are all different sizes and I'm so grossed out and horrified. The taste of food is like a 4/10 but I'm so disgusted that I can't finish it. It's too bad because I wasted $14 and I'm just visiting Boston for a short time. Unacceptable!

Fast service. Tasty, particularly the spicy potatoes (not very spicy), hummus, and babaganouj. The chicken shawarma was tasty but kinda dry. Great for a good a quick meal and something different.

Love this lunch spot downtown. Best falafels in Boston (sorry Falafel King). There is always a long line at lunch but it's a good sign and it moves fast! So yummy!!!

Charged me a plate price for my roll. I didn’t realized it immediately as it was my first time eat here. Will not go back to give them the second chance to bilk.

When it comes to Hummos and Falafel, believe it or not “You will feel back home!!”, it's very authentic.
