50 Best Fast Food Restaurants near Mattapan

“Great place to eat. The staff are great. The prices are better. The food is clean and hot. Their condiments are great. Only problem is the hygiene of the tables. They can clean those a bit faster. Save the tables, this place is really good.“

“I've ordered the cubano and completo sandwiches and both were very good. I also love their fresh Tamarindo juice. Their prices are reasonable. The staff has greeted me nicely both times I've gone. The only con so far is Parking. It is usually hard to find, causing you to double park or go around several times. Besides that I would recommend to check them out.“

“My wife and I stopped in for lunch today after walking a good portion of the Freedom Trail. We were pleasantly surprised at the numerous gluten free option and even more impressed with the quality of the food. The portions were generous as well, and neither one of us was able to finish our meal.

This is a tiny spot in downtown Boston, on Milk and Broad, just a couple blocks from the freedom Trail.

It is a great spot to get away from the heat and humidity and have an incredibly delicious meal that tastes home made.

Stop in and grab some really delicious comfort food, especially if you need gluten free options.“

“Welcoming and very upbeat spit to grab a quick take out order or sit and chill while you eat! Very clean! Food was AMAZING! Mark the owner was super kind to us and made sure we enjoyed everything we ordered! We came from NW Arkansas to visit the area for Halloween and stopped here because we heard the “lobstah” rolls were delish! They didn’t disappoint!! Go grab one! We have the Maine and the Connecticut! Both were delish! Oh-and the fry sauces are a must try!!“

“My husband and I love coming to banh mi cafe, it’s one of our neighborhood go-to’s. It’s especially great to pick up a banh mi for a little picnic across the street, or by the library, which is advised bc they only have three counter seats.

Everyone here at banh mi cafe is efficient and welcoming, so service is quick. You can easily order at the kiosk if you’re feeling antisocial, the the staff are open to answering questions too. I usually go with the standard deli meat sandwich which is phenomenal. I tried their bbq pork and their lemongrass tofu last night. Both were super tasty, but I’m always nostalgic for a traditional banh mi personally. However, the lemongrass tofu was honestly a sleeper hit. It’s really flavorful and has such a nice contrasting texture against their French bread. Highly recommend it here! Their fresh rolls are also fantastic—extremely crisp, I think they add chive in it? It’s great, whatever it is lol. I will say, in the dozens of times I’ve been, they have only sold out of bread once after 6/6:30pm, but when I tell you I was absolutely devastated…so get there early if you can!“

“Tucked away in a quiet corner, The Hummus Shop in Boston is a hidden gem you shouldn’t miss. Don’t let its small size fool you—this place delivers big on flavor. The vegan and vegetarian dishes are absolutely fantastic, with everything tasting incredibly fresh and well-prepared. The staff are warm, polite, and make you feel right at home. Prices are very reasonable for the quality you get. Be sure to try their spicy pumpkin sauce—it’s unique, flavorful, and elevates any dish on the menu. A must-visit spot for anyone who loves wholesome, delicious food.“

“I really liked this place, the people are very friendly and the food is super good.
Carmencita (kitchen) yamile super attentive and formal
East Boston

Parking: Parking space is good

Kid-friendliness: It is suitable for consumption of children's food“

“Stopped for an early dinner on a Friday night, and built my own bowl. The salmon and tuna were very fresh and tasty. The toppings were generous and great quality. Portions were generous. Service was friendly and helpful. Very good experience overall. Would definitely come back again.“

“Working with you, Ralph Carico, has been an absolute blessing. Your signals and strategies have consistently yielded profitable trades, all without any withdrawal fees. I can't express enough gratitude, Ralph, and I wholeheartedly recommend your legitimate and trustworthy services to others. Don't hesitate to add Ralph Carico to your trading network.“

“Clean restaurant. We came in on a Sunday night to get my daughter some chicken while we tried other things. Asked for no spice on the tenders. Flavor was a bit salty but overall the chicken was juicy and the portion size was generous. Fries were a bit of a let down, didn’t seem fresh.
Cashier was very friendly.“

“Good iced coffee 😝 and the people are very nice“

“This was the BEST DISH my son and I had at the "3rd Annual New Bedford Food Truck and Craft Beer Festival" held on September 14, 2019. The flavors were amazing and the staff was very friendly and helpful. We look forward to seeing you at future events. 😊“

“food was surprisingly fast and cheap, i thought maybe the noodles would be greasy and taste cheap, but nope these were actually very high quality noodles. this spot is a life saver for living in the area. tofu is extremely soft but the flavor was good enough for me to forgive it. i added some of my own vegetables and sauce to this and had it for lunch and dinner and had a great time. do not be foolish and live here while being ignorant of ding ho.“

“Outstanding service! Fast delivery to table of excellent quality food. A little pricey but what airport restaurant isn’t pricey. Would recommend to anyone. 5+ stars!“

“Our favorite pizza in Dedham!“

“This place is located in a plaza, so there is plenty of parking. The inside was clean, and it was quiet for a weekday during lunchtime. My order was ready within 5-6 minutes, and service was friendly.

- Combo #7 Slider + Fries: My first bite of the chicken was dry, but the rest was moist. The breading was seasoned well, but I didn’t taste any heat from the “Hot” spice level. Nothing special about the bun, and the coleslaw added a nice contrast, but I wish there were more on the slider. Wasn’t a fan of the fries because they were bland and not crispy at all despite eating them within 5 minutes. The sauce was good, though.
- Fried Oreos ($5.99): This was my first time trying fried Oreos, and they were surprisingly better than I expected. The outside was very flaky with a mochi-like inside. The Oreo taste didn’t change after being fried, but it had more of a brownie-like texture.

Not bad overall.“

“Excelent hamburguesas! And fries, also the guarana 0 was excelent choice.

Price is a little bit high but worth it, parking around is complicated but after all the recipe is very good.

Very recommended for family and friends!“

“Very authentic and yummy Vietnamese food if you want to grab something quick on the go!
They are incredibly generous (especially with the amount of meat for the Banh Mi) and it’s so delicious and fresh!! It’s a great combination of satisfying your craving for Vietnamese food without having to sit down at a restaurant to get it. The only thing I personally would skip the milk teas but I love the Vietnamese iced coffee and fruit teas :)“

“Ordered their double turkey burger with lettuce instead of a bun and a garden salad. Ate the salad first and it was big, which was phenomenal. The turkey burger was juicy, the sauce was great and the lettuce wrap was green and not some iceberg junk. I would definitely order from there again. Oh, and the price was great too.“

“I invite the wonderful visitors of Boston to enjoy the dining experience in the restaurant. The meals are delicious and the place is warm, beautiful and family-friendly.

Wheelchair accessibility: There is an elevator, and it is preferable for people in wheelchairs“

“OGGI is not one thing. Looking like a pizzeria at first glance, it is! With large inexpensive slices. But check out the menu of creative burgers and my own fave, a caprese smoked salmon sandwich with pesto. The high-end comfort food cooked with love by Steve is perfectly complemented by wine, beer, and full-bar offerings. Free jazz Thursday evenings and low-cover gigs many nights make this not just another pizza joint but a full- service jazz bar. Best post-pandemic discovery in the Square.“

“I think their chicken wings really taste like McDonald’s spicy chicken wings in China! ! ! ! There is nothing like Korean fried chicken in Boston, but every time you want to eat domestic taste, this is the fried chicken! And that chicken fillet roll really tastes like the old Beijing chicken roll “

“Great burger! Friendly, attentive staff. Thank you for a great day out!“

“This meal felt like a little adventure: sandwiches dripping with flavor like treasure spilling from a chest, fries that crunched like stepping on autumn leaves, and lemonade that sparkled like bottled sunshine. Everything worked together in perfect harmony- playful, refreshing, and absolutely delicious. 10/10, would happily risk sandwich stains again.“

“delicious poki bowls and creative poki burritos. Ramen was great too“

“Staff was super friendly & hospitable. I’ve been getting food from here since I was a kid but I’ve been coming a bit more as an adult. My kids & I came here for lunch after my oldest’s dance class & our food was served in a beautiful display, they were super helpful & really put in the effort to make us feel welcome. Also the chicken fingers are super yummy.“

“Great location and easy access to enjoy a quick bite. Bacon cheese burger, grilled cheese, and regular fries. Salted Carmel peanut butter shake....yummylicious!!! Food was served hot, fresh and so delicious! Great job to the kitchen team serving up the freshness.“

“I haven't been to Chick-fil-A in a while and everything is the same quality (although the grilled chicken sandwich is smaller in quantity/size)! Food tastes great, service is impeccable, fun and chill atmosphere, with a great music selection!“

“Very good, But I don't want to hamburger anymore“

“Ordered this delivery and it did its job. The chili cheeze dog was my favorite. But the crabby burger and the BBQ mushroom burger were both tasty as well. Even got a strawberry shake. The sizes are pretty small but the food tasted good. Reminds me of heart house or plant power in LA. Does its job for a quick bite Updated from previous review on 2025-07-25“

“This place is one of my favs. I go here all the time. I love building my own pizza, the food is great, the owner is the best! There is plenty of seating here, its good for you and your friends or you and the family. I definitely recommend this place.“

“Love the food it so good !“

“I ordered the Big Burger and Strawberry Love shake and they were delicious. Staff member behind the counter was very helpful. I ordered from the app and had a little trouble getting to the payment screen and staff member showed me how. Food was prepared quickly and was hot. I noticed another customer didn't want to use the tablet to order and staff member took her order at the register. I read other reviews criticizing everything I found perfect.

“If was awesome 🤩 we love it 🥰“

“I’m glad to see chicken tender chains migrating north, and Raising Cane’s is always a welcome sight. Compared to Foosackly’s and Zaxby’s, Cane’s lands in third place for me. They have the biggest tenders of the three and the best toast, but their fries are bland and overly salty, the chicken isn’t as well seasoned, and the prices are on the higher side. Still, I’ll take any southern chicken tender spots making their way up here.

Service was fast, and the food was good as expected. The interior was a little dirty but nothing extreme, and there’s some outdoor seating available—though it’s sparse.

Overall, a solid option if you’re craving chicken tenders, even if it’s not the best of the best.“

“I am on Keto and I got a Keto friendly burger wrapped in lettuce. It was so delicious. Thanks guys!“

“Food made with love is something that you can’t just find anywhere, but you can with one bite into any item on the menu at Graffiti Pizza and Street Food. My fiancée and I went tonight, I ordered a regular slice and I got the Pizzaiola sub. The slice was simple, however the taste of homemade ingredients slaps you in the face. The pizzaiola sub was something extraordinary. Half a pound of chuck steak, delicious vodka sauce and homemade mozz on fresh Italian bread… can’t beat that. For dessert we got homemade pumpkin pie. Don’t tell her but my grandma couldn’t make a better pumpkin pie on thanksgiving day. Everything was great, phenomenal date night and the owner Dave is a gem. One hell of a spot, We will be back.“

“My first couple of veg*n outings in this town were terrible, so everything since has been a delightful contrast. None less than Clover. Unsure why this chain is not entirely vegan - surely they could replace the cheese and sour cream (and egg) with vegan substitutes - but anyway I had the Mediterranean Bowl: falafels with chickpea and eggplant salad (could not identify any eggplant), pickled red cabbage and a green tart tahini dressing on the side. Very, very tasty. Tho be warned - if you don’t like your meals drowned in tahini, perhaps best to request this on the side.“

“If you’re looking for a healthy quick bite stop by Clover Food Labs, a couple blocks away from South Station. The staff is friendly and the food is always freshly made. Got to meet my former manager Jasper who I worked with at a few locations between 2015-2016. As always, it was a pleasure.“

“First time trying Vietnamese food and they were very friendly and patient with us. My kids were not excited to try things at first but after just a taste, they wanted to order their own food. Small cafe, limited seating but they were accommodating.“

“The food was delicious and the service was very good. Nice people, nice atmosphere. I do recommend this place.“

“Wonderful place to have dinner. With your friends.“

“Chicken/Lamb combo with rice was absolute 🔥. I got it with all three sauces, white, spicy and green. Huge portion and delicious also got the Horchata which was really good. Can't believe I order on Uber Eats all the time and hadn't tried this place yet will be ordering again all the time! Also they had a promo so the chickens and lamb and rice was only $12.50 instead of $17. What a steal!“

“Best chicken bites! Highly recommend ♥️“

“ㄧWhen I walked into the store, a waiter came over to inquire and order. This person ordered a set meal (sandwich, fries and drink), and chose the Chickpea Fritter for the sandwich. The fried chickpeas were served with a lot of lettuce. , cucumber and salad dressing, added to the sandwich, although it is refreshing but relatively tasteless, but I personally don’t like the falafel too dry. The rosemary fries didn't have much seasoning or saltiness, but I personally thought they were pretty good. I chose ginger lemon for the drink, which has a light ginger taste but no sweetness. The overall taste of the meal is quite bland, maybe you can add some pepper to make it more delicious. Friends who like light and refreshing meals may like the meals here.

“Reasonable prices, no forced tipping, AND the waitress offered to throw out my trash?! In this economy, the fact that the food tasted good is the cherry on top. My only suggestion is to change your interior designer because it felt like I was dining at Trump Tower with all the gold...“

“Seven Subs is totally consistent - the subs, wraps and sandwiches are stuffed to perfection and made with quality ingredients. My personal favorite The Turkey Club- ITS ALL GOOD! Mike is also a genuinely wonderful person so we all enjoy supporting his local business! Wishing you the very best!“

“Just had my first burger with Cajun fries from Five Guys and I understand the cult factor now.
The employee who took my order (according to the receipt, Derek P) was super friendly and patient (I was overwhelmed by the sheer selection of toppings and ultimately decided on “all the way” without mushrooms).
The burger was prepared very quickly and tasted great - and the fries: they deserve multiple awards. 🤤 Unfortunately I only had a small portion.“

“The service was very enthusiastic and kind and friendly. The vegetarian food was great! (Chickpea “egg” salad, warm za’atar pita) I like the atmosphere of the interior, but, pet peeve, chairs scraping against floor drive me nuts and the volume of people talking bouncing around was hard for me.“

“I’m honestly glad that I waited to post my original review with a lower rating and thought through the experience a little bit more. As always, I find it a bit harder to review fusion spots. Not just any fusion either, but one that is all over the world map. It’s easy to just nitpick one dish and use it to judge everything else; but what about that is remotely fair?

For example, their Beef Rendang (a dish that I’m very familiar with - including the different regional renditions) is more like a hint towards what “real” Beef Rendang is. I don’t even need to speak on behalf of the Filipinos regarding their adobo (which I also grew up on) who are infamous to show up on public forums to criticize and say “that’s not how my grandmother makes it” (lol).

What did come to mind is the old quote that many often find negative but actually was meant to be a positive phrase (if the last part isn’t so often omitted). “Jack of all trades, master of none, though often times better than a master of one”.

That definitely applies here with their style of food. There’s a lot going on and a good portal to the true potential of each dish. Definitely give them a try! Portions are good and the food is definitely tasty!“
