This was my first meal in Boston while visiting. The meal was good and well prepared.

The chicken shwarma warp was honestly pretty abysmal. The meat in the wrap was virtually unseasoned and the sauce was sparsely applied. The majority of the wrap filling was lettuce with a smattering of other items. Eating it was a workout. If you are in search of calories this place works. If you are in search of flavor, Greek corner or Cafe Barada will fit the bill much better within a Mediterranean cuisine context.

Chicken shawarma plate absolutely not worth $22 dollars and please update prices on your take out menu it’s very deceiving

They have added hidden required up charges to items when ordering on Uber eats. Not a fan of trying to hide fees. I am really hoping this was an error

Have been here several times over the years and have enjoyed and recommend this place. Today we did not enjoy the food quality and taste. I think it will be some time before we consider trying it again.

Got food poisoning by their chicken shawarma plate. They need to be more careful about the health of the customers.

ill start with the shawarma being extremely underwhelming. east-coast metropolitan canada has spoiled me when it comes to a good shawarma: fluffy garlic sauce, meat that melts in your mouth, perfectly pickled pickles, a saj that’s dunked in the shawarma juice and flambéed on the grill. and this shawarma is not that. this is dry af and i don’t think there is good shawarma in boston. you should just do the 6 hour road trip to ottawa

but alas! this review is actually not for the shawarma because then it would’ve been much lower than this score. this review is for the baklava. for $5, you get a huge square of baklava that is so perfectly crisp and chewy. overwhelming flavour profile of floralness in the syrup - much more than other baklavas ive had in the Boston area and i LOVE it. orange blossom/rosewater is so under emphasized in baklava nowadays and noor does it so right….. for $5 how can you even complain?!?!? this is value maxxing. id come again and again and again just for this baklava. thank you for your service noor mediterranean grill

Got beef shawerma wrap and Beef kebob which is amazing. To compare to other Mideterranean food in town Noor is much better. Highly recommended.

If you are Arab like me, and you are looking for real Shawarma, then this place is not it. Sadly, like every other fake Shawarma in Boston, it doesn't even come close to the real thing. Wrong cut of meat (shawarma is not a steak wrap), the garlic sauce is not made properly and barely tastes like garlic, they use tomato in the wrap which is for Falafel NOT SHAWARMA, they don't use pickled turnips, they don't use parsley, they don't sear or toast the Pita Bread. Either the people making these have never tasted a real Shawarma in their life, or they just don't care enough about their own culture to represent it well by making authentic food. Eating your Shawarma as an Arab actually made me angry and ruined my day. Go taste a real Shawarma and stop disrespecting a great Arab snack like Shawarma. Honestly, words cannot describe how fed up I am with these Boston "Arab Food" places that serve this horrible food. I have eaten Shawarma in Syria that cost 50 cents that tastes a million times better than this.

Chicken Shawarma wrap was loaded with meat & toppings. I was very impressed with the kind service & great food. I don’t often leave reviews but I felt this one was worth it.

We’ve been having Noor’s Trio and chicken Shawarma once in a while in the last two years and have never stopped loving it! It is super delicious with all combinations of rice/fries, their salads, and hummus/garlic sauce, and it’s literally our comfort food in Boston area. They don’t have a great spot for dining in, but delivery has been consistently good. The yogurt beverage, though not something I’ve found American taste to typically like it, is amazing. We had their rice pudding once which was tasty, but their Baklava has been on and off in terms of quality and freshness. Overall, Noor is the best Mediterranean food I’ve had in the States.

What an amazing place. Not only were the chicken shawarma wrap and falafel delicious but the generosity I saw was truly amazing. What I assume was a homeless man or maybe just someone struggling with money, came in and asked for some food. The man at the front treated him to a full meal with drinks and told him he would take care of him. It was truly heart warming to see this act of kindness. Please support this business! They deserve it.
