Lebanese Restaurants near Worcester, MA

“Worcester Restaurant Week is wrapping up, so we headed to El Basha - Worcester, MA on Route 9. We began with hummus & lamb sambusik. He chose the $29.95 deal, featuring a Greek salad & beef port saiid, while I had a salad with kofta. The rice pudding dessert was delightful. Great food & service from Natalie!“

“It was our first time at this location and we had a nice dinner. I wish they also had gyro-type dishes. But we enjoyed the kebabs we had - chicken, lamb, beef and ground beef. The ground beef was the most flavorful. Our server was really sweet and attentive.“

“Happy Birthday, _____! Now here’s a happy twist! _____ (a leap year baby! 😉 ) treated us to her Happy Birthday celebration at the splendiferous Shawarma Palace yesterday! Right across the side street from The Commons at Worcester City Hall! Yes! We New Englanders know how to party! _____, her husband _____, pal _____, and yours truly (all of us Leominsterites) made merry at the best middle eastern establishment around! (It’s been a favorite of mine for some time!) Oversized containers piled high with falafel, kibbeh, egg plant, grape leaves, rice, vegetables, as well as beef and chicken (all separated for the veggies among us, ahem!), hummus, tahini, pita bread, baklava, etc. etc.! All in the wonderful Shawarma Palace! When I worked in Saudi Arabia (Riyadh) in the 1980s, I fell in love with the orange-and-lemon-flavored shawarmas along Al Baatha Street, the central traditional thoroughfare at the time. Today, we all got to replicate those flavors at the Shawarma Palace! Hurray and hurrah!“

“We tried the oatmeal flour Pita from a local India market & love it. Great!“

“George's Bakery does everything right. Back before I can even remember I've had loaves of George's FAMOUS syrian bread on my counter or in my freezer. This bakery is a staple to Worcester's diverse culture in dining. Located conveniently on Grafton Street!“
