“BEST LAMP CHOPS EVER“

“On one of the first days at my company, a colleague took me to the old New York Deli on Temple Street and introduced me to Kadhim. I couldn't understand why he would take the time - it's not like this guy is going to remember me out of all of the people who come through there. My mistake - every time I would see him over the years, at whatever location, Kadhim would come from behind the counter and greet me by name like an old friend. Understand - he was told my name once, over 20 years ago. I don't even go out to lunch very often - sometimes it would be years between visits to one of the Falafel King locations. But every time I enter, it's a big smile and greeting and an expression of appreciation that cannot be faked...go check them out!“

“Great experience this afternoon. Sat outside and the service was great. The food was delicious! We had a flat bread and two pita wrapped sandwiches. The freshly made pita bread is delicious! Looking forward to going back!“

“The best Mediterranean food in Cambridge, I recommended this place, good food, good prices, and very nice customer service. Thank you ???“

“Everyday they have a special item in their menu. I had a lamb kofta plate that comes with rice, salad, pita, hummus and yogurt. The kofta was over fried and was full of oil as the rice layer was covered with oil.
Also Baklava was good as it was not too sweet.

Above all the taste was good and portion size was enough to kill a hungry stomach for $16. Very clean space but surprisingly they still use a cover in front of the counter like good Covid days.“

“When I lived in Boston, I came to their basement Haymarket located Arabic store often. Meats, fish, spices, sweets, homemade flat bread, etc. I went there again 10 days ago and it still has it all. This place is a Boston treasure. Always friendly employees. You should check it out.“

“This is literally the best Persian restaurant in the "Greater Boston" area! Definitely an unforgettable experience! The food's delicious as ever! The service's + Atmosphere's 100% terrific!“

“I've played in a lot of clubs in a lot of places and the Middle East is one of the best. The place has an incredible vibe, great food, and great music. Everyone on staff was wonderful and the bartender, Lauren, was truly exceptional. Thanks to everyone at the club for a killer night. See you next time!

“Tried Allspice for the first time today. Delicious. Lamb gyro was cooked perfectly and fresh. Very reasonably priced. Wonderful people working there as well. Looking forward to going back soon“

“Whenever we’re in Boston this is a must-have. The softest pita, felafel that is both moist and delicous, tehina with a perfect consistency, and the sehug that packs a flavorful punch that will take you allll the way to flavortown. The shawarma is wonderful and the ingredients are all fresh. Staff is friendly and accommodating. Definitely worth a visit!“

“Went to "Dig Deep's Last Dance" and had an amazing time. The vibe was absolutely on point—chill crowd, friendly staff, and the house music hit the spot. I loved that there was no cover and no dress code; it made the whole night feel so laid-back but still packed with electric energy.

This spot definitely feels like a local gem, and I’m so glad I gave it a shot. Highly recommend checking it out if you ever get the chance!“

“The food is incredible! I would give them 6 stars if I could!

After driving past this restaurant a gazillion times, I said, " You know we have to try that restaurant out" and finally we did and at a very busy time around seven . They didn't have any tables available as this restaurant is small and came at peak hour but we managed to get a couple seats at the bar. We had the best baba ghanoush, the lamb, Adana, and chicken kebab..,it was delicious!!!!!! the salad was delicious too! And the pistachio Halva dessert was divine with goat ice cream! The main thing is our meal was fresh! They were also a lot of takeout orders so I think this restaurant is a no-brainer for me. If I need to entertain people, I will probably order a bunch of kebabs from them and know the quality would be fabulous because it's small. It was a little hectic when I was there since food was being passed along the table with an empty stool next to me at the bar. But I get it. It's busy! I would like to come in when it's a little quieter maybe around five I have a more calming dining experience!“

“Good halal options. Grill lamb rice is tasty. The salad portion is great. Fries are delicious . They have limited options for sauces, and the quantity of sauces is small. The double lamb burger was just okay. Platter and kebab are good options to eat, it comes with pita bread and the quantity of fries is great.“

“Excellent and friendly service, food and environment 👍🏼“

“Certainly the best Persian food in Boston. Must try the Koobideh“

“Was in town for the weekend visiting family and made a trip to massis we don’t have any Armenian bakeries or stores in Connecticut. So many options to choose from i stocked up on things to bring home and got a bunch of mezze things for dinner with family we were visiting some of Them have never had Armenian food before and they enjoyed all of it. Amazing Armenian food and pastries“

“Love this place and the great food. This place has been in our family for a couple of generations. Keep up the great food!!“

“Very yummy 😋 I ‘m coming back !!!“

“Fantastic service , great food“

“I was looking for a good falafel place in the Watertown neighborhood, and stumbled upon this gem of a place.The owners are very polite and gentle.Definitely recommend the falafel combo; some of the best I've had in recent times in around Boston“

“I recently dined at Land of Fire in Boston, and it was a fantastic experience! The kebabs were incredibly flavorful and perfectly cooked, with just the right amount of seasoning. The doner was equally impressive—juicy and satisfying. The variety of dishes offered ensured there was something for everyone, all served fresh and hot. The ambiance was inviting, and Hido, the owner, truly adds to the experience with his warm hospitality. I highly recommend Land of Fire to anyone craving delicious Middle Eastern cuisine!“

“I was here with a couple of friends from work , the food was amazing and the atmosphere was super chill, service was fast and customer service was the best … I’ll def be coming back when I visit Boston“

“Ari is an amazing person it are you there is an a hug for me! The catchup is very good. Very good with a VSCO girls Like myself. Would not recommend eating their tinfoil! Ari=amaizing ever one else is quiet! Good with gluten free(for some fellow Karen’s)“

“Staff are nice and have good service“

“INCREDIBLE ALL AROUND!!! Best mozzarella sticks I have ever had, delicious meat pies, and pizza that always hits the spot. I have spent so much money here that I can probably not afford, but it doesn't matter because it is always worth it. I always get Charlie's for any friends or family that visits and it has become a staple in my apartment. Could not recommend more!!! <3“

“This place was ?!!! I didn't have water but even though they only had bottled water they gave it to me for free! They also gave everyone in the entire restaurant free ice cream. The food was great and service was fantastic! Definitely 5 stars!“

“Just ordered here a pick up and food (Lamb shawarma plate) was great. I am posting as surprised by the reviews last few years but it seems like some ownership changes happened since pandemic and prior to now. And I forgot about this place last few years but drove by it the other day and kept thinking about how good the food was in my memory so ordered today. FYI Menu only has authentic items today as it did in past no Latin American items. Salad was fresh and had dressing and feta, rice was soft and flavorful, and lamb was as good as in my memory with yogurt dressing on top. So not sure what happened last few years but I’d encourage ppl who liked in past to try again. Will update this review in future if quality changes but to me was good and as I remembered and will order again.“

“HOLYFRICK!! I’m an event vendor and very rarely do we get fed (or get something edible to be honest). This is HANDS DOWN the best food I’ve had at any event I’ve ever worked in the last 15 some odd years. Literally had to stop eating to run and compliment the chef & owner. You guys have a new forever fan, keep making absolutely killer food. Rockstars. Superstars. Food Gods. 100000% recommend. 🤤😍“

“I’m eating the Chicken Skewer bowl as we speak and for 14$ , it’s delicious and incredible value for your buck . Worth a 10 minute wait .tender Chicken It’s all full flavored and fresh , very fluffy rice and excellent hummus.
I’ll def be back .“

“Always tasty and fresh 😋!“

“I had a dinner there. Ordered a lamb kabob. The servant gentleman was less than enthusiastic. He acted a bit like as if I owed him something. Food was ok. It was a weird vibe overall. I unfortunately will not be able to recommend a place and probably will not go back myself.“

“Expected more, especially for the price. The meat was precut, not from the spit, and cold. Putting it on the grill makes the pita bread hard and inelastic but the insides still saty cold. Ordering process was quite chaotic - several people were making the roll ups, switching places, all asking us about the ingredients. At that, two of the three people did not speak English. The size of the roll ups was rather small for $11. Overall, ok but our preference would be to have a less stressful ordering process, warmer meat and cleaner bathroom. For $16-17 a platter, there could also be a waitee, not “fast food approach”.“

“We were craving a hearty falafel sandwich as it’s done the Mediterranean way. My sister have heard of Flafel Corner and suggested we try it coming out of Harvard square. Best decision! Delicious, freshly made, hearty, generous comfort food. Simple no frills setting but super clean with soul. Yaser from Alexandria was the kindest, most welcoming and generous host. We’ll return for many when in the neighborhood.“

“Third or fourth time here -- different choice each time. ALWAYS FRESH, FLAVORFUL AND DELISH'. Today -- Greek salad with spicy chicken shawarma. Sides of cauliflower and tabbouli.“

“Food was delicious, portions were generous, and the local delivery was so convenient! Will definitely order again soon.“
