I got the Koobideh sandwich, and my bf got the chicken gyro. Both were AMAZING. My sandwich was loaded with roasted veggies, and the sauces were so good. Portions were generous and prices were great.

I always thought Boston was lacking in REALLY good Persian food, and it turns out I just have to go…read moreout to Revere! Right off the bat, stepping in felt super nostalgic with the smells and vibe of the place (like grandma's house). The Koobideh was one of the best I have had ever (including CA restaurants). The texture was great, it had the perfect uniform chunks, it wasn't super spiced or burnt, just fab. I also normally don't order stews but the gheyme was also really good as well as the shallot yogurt. The lady who served us (perhaps also owner?) was the SWEETEST. She took the time to stop by every table several times and really get to know the customers. Also brought out some tea for us on the house for Nowruz, which was incredibly kind. I wish I'd found this place sooner, it really felt like home.

Also got cucumber salad that served with bread (no picture, husband got to it before I had a chance to take picture) - the bread was one of the best I've had. Crunchy on the outside, soft and moist on the inside yet thin. Ate too much didn't have room for desert. Added bonus, our server was very attentive and super friendly.

I heard a lot of good things about Kennedy's fried chicken on Chestnut Street, I was coming home and there was a parking spot open so stopped in. I only wanted two pieces of chicken one thing I've noticed about Spanish people, they want everyone to try their rice, so the owner tossed in a container of rice for me to try, he said you'll love it. I just had the best piece of fried chicken I've had in 30 years, I ate that shit down to the bones, the skin was nice and crispy, the chicken was moist and juicy, the rice was good traditional rice I will definitely be going there more often it's less than a half mile from my house

I'm like OK just had a bad day no problem. When the food came out I just simply asked in a kind way if they have any hot sauce. Instead of just politely saying that they do but it cost, he very visibly annoyed said "it doesn't come with it .. I'll bring it". I was like okeeey what's the matter with this guys and when he does show up with the sauce even more visibly annoyed said it costs but he'll give it to me. But literally in every aspect it was really annoyed said. I refused to take it and paid for it of course. Why couldn't he just like a normal polite person said it's not included and there's a charge? Why make this experience so bad and be so rude and visibly annoyed? I don't need a smile just BASIC courtesy and not making me feel bad for just asking few basic questions for gods sake! I don't need this horrible service for over priced food!

I came to Istanbul Diner cafe after seeing some great reviews online and it did not disappoint…read more When I arrived, the ambiance was very quaint. It was a smaller restaurant with a fair amount of seating. The servers were very friendly and able to assist in what I should get. I got the CHICKEN SHISH BOWL which had rice, lettuce, cabbage, pita, grilled chicken and a white sauce (whatever it is, it made the dish) Great experience and will be recommending to others !

I walked over here for dinner, I wasn't sure what to get. The lady behind the counter was very…read morehelpful and went over the menu with me and explained what various dishes were and told me some of her favorites. I ended up getting a bowl of lentil soup, and border of grape leaves, and an Iskander kebab platter. It was waaaaayy toooo muuuuuch food!!!!! It was also very very good! She gave me garlic sauce and hot sauce both of which were great but the food didn't even need it!! The Iskander platter was so good, thinly sliced meat on a bed of croutons with a tomato sauce and cool creamy yogurt sauce beside it. Next time I'll probably only get they - but only because the soup and grape leaves just made it too much food!! She tried to get me to get rice pudding too but I had nowhere to put it.

I got a chocolate croissant and two different types of cookies. One of my good friends eats Halal and it will be nice to have a spot in my community where I can take her for a nice meal. They do serve a menu with schwarma and hummus, and a few other things. Coffee menu is limited to authentic coffee, so no sugary junk. I love this for a quick stop! I will definitely be returning to pick up these croissants for my weekly breakfasts. They also have beautiful dessert pastries and a variety of different cookies perfect for this holiday season.

Due to their low prices and friendly customer service I will stop by here often!

I have never had middle eastern food before, but I'm a foodie so I was ready to try something new…read more the women at the front counter walked me through the different meats/spices and dishes. I went with the chicken shish bowl. White rice bulgar, grilled marinated chicken breast, pickled cabbage/ lettuce salad with a thick lemony dressing. I actually liked their Tzatziki better because I'm not a huge lemon fan, but when I mixed it together, it was really nice. The bowl was full of flavor. I loved the bulgar and the chicken was so moist and tender. Everything mixed with a bit of The pita, which was warm and fluffy was the perfect bite. My friend got the chicken shawarma wrap and I had a bite. That was very tasty too. Cute little place in Rte 1. Order at the counter and they bring it to your table. I don't know if all the ingredients were GF but besides the pita, seems pretty gluten friendly. I will definitely be back when in the area. It was so good I forgot to take a picture lol

I used my handy-dandy Yelp Boston app and landed on Nour cafe! I saw that they had #shawarma and that it was some of the best in the area, so here's how it went! Atmosphere/Appearance: This place is literally a gas station, but there's nothing wrong with that. You pull up to the Shell, get some gas or park at a pump that's out of order or one of the available parking spots off to the right, but this place isn't really designed for you to dine in. Lol. Yes, you can sit in and eat off to the left side, but they really want you to leave. Once inside you make a right and above the drink coolers are a series of TVs that show you the menu. Continue to your right and you'll see the kitchen where all of the magic happens. Simple setup here. Service: There isn't any. You walk up to the counter, order your food, pay for it where you'd normally pay for gas then wait for them to call your name. My food was ready in 10 minutes. Food: I went with the mixed grill plate because I just FELT IN MY SOUL that I'd get a WHOLE LOT of food. Boy was I right! Lol. So the mixed grill plate comes with chicken shawarma, steak shawarma, ground lamb kabob, rice, a big pita, pickled vegetables, a slaw, a grilled onion mixture and hummus. Wow. Everything was SO good, SO seasoned and SO filling. I literally could eat on this for 2 and maybe 3 meals! I broke the pita into 4 smaller pieces and then made mini shawarmas with different meats in them! Lol. It was a bit messy, but you can totally eat this with a fork and knife without a problem. The food was excellent. Value: $16.99 is what I paid and when I got to my hotel then opened the lid to see all of that food I was just so blown away. How did they make any money by giving me all of this?! Lol. Astounded. Everything on the menu is cheap and there were many things under $10.00. In conclusion, I'd definitely pull up and get this exact same meal again! I went with the mixed grill to experience the different meats this place had to offer. I loved eating from here.

He noticed my daughter in her sports uniform , decked out with a medal and asked if she won. When she broke the news they were runners up, he had nothing but praise and inspiring words. He was just what she needed after a tough loss. The chicken here brings the heat! I know, I should have caught on, it is in the name after all (: I definitely needed the ranch and Dave's sauce to help cool down the medium level slider and the spicy bbq nuggets. Not gonna lie, my favorite part of the meal was the Mac n cheese. It was so creamy. Hear me out, a bowl of Mac n cheese with chicken on top, as an entree. I'm here for it.
