I had a truly memorable meal at Fattoush many years ago and I was very excited to return for some take-out. Unfortunately, this latest meal was simply terrible. I remembered previously ordering a Chicken Shawarma Plate. That is now in the "Specialties" section of the menu and that's what I ordered expecting to get the same plate of delicious chicken, rice, salad and hummus. I was shocked that this $20 "Specialty" consisted of a dry chicken wrap, french fries, some sort of yogurt dip and AWFUL, salty pickled vegetables. The fries were good but you don't go to a specialty Mediterranean place to get fries with a meal described as a plate. Apparently, you can no longer get a true plate of chicken shawarma with rice here. I do plan to return again some day and try the Kofta Kebab or Mixed Grill Plate from the "Entree" section since these still come with rice but everyone should be avoiding the "Specialties" plates as these are poorly executed and severely overpriced. Regardless of what you are ordering, I would highly recommend calling in your order to confirm exactly what you are going to get with your order since the online menus have no details whatsoever. read more

Been meaning to try Fattoush for a while now, and when I did it did not disappoint! I ordered a chicken shawarma for takeout on a Saturday night. It was ready in 20 minutes. The restaurant has seating and parking if you choose to dine in. Very casual place. As for the wrap, it was a skinny but PACKED wrap, which left me full. Very tasty and seasoned well. I'd definitely get this again! read more

Have gotten takeout regularly here in the past year and love the food. We like the mixed grill plate and other specialty dishes like Shish Fakhara (a creamy chicken dish, great with rice). We tried the beef shawarma plate recently which was good but actually served as a wrap sandwich sections, eh oh I didn't expect, but was good. Love the hummus and grape leaves here. Takeout is very easy with their hours. Recommend! read more

So delish! The fam and I absolutely love this place! Must get the dip platter to start (every single one is so good), and we love their sandwiches, fries and garlic dip! Super crispy and flavorful - even tastes good as leftovers when we order so much we can't finish it!! read more

The hummos is really good. The rest of the food we tried was okay. The falafel itself was not so good. Not enough parsley or cilantro and not much flavor. The flavor came from salty pickles in the sandwich. I had a stomach ache after having it. My husband got a mixed grill that was okay. The service was not great, which is unusual for a Syrian restaurant. Our waiter was on his phone a lot and just not warm at all. None of the workers there were warm. It was weird. Typically Syrians are warm and welcoming. This wasn't the case whatsoever here. Was looking forward to trying this place, but unfortunately won't be returning. read more

WOW! Real Medetereanean food! All the dishes are delicious and generous in proportions. The appetizer sampler is a descent meal for two. The lamb is a special treat. Plenty of parking. read more

Service and ambiance were great. Place was clean and they were very friendly. They were busy around 2:00 on a Sunday afternoon. This was a takeout order as we were on a road trip. We got the seasoned fries and they had very little seasoning and were pretty limp. I guess I was expecting the kind of battered seasoned fries you get at some places & this was not that and the fries were not crispy at all. My husband LOVES pita bread but he was disappointed by the side of pita we bought. He thought they were just too thin/flimsy & would not hold up to dipping-luckily they were only $0.65. We split the Shish Fakhara & Port Saiid entrees & they were both really tasty. I especially liked the Shish Fakhara. They both came with rice & we ate both entrees over the rice. I also got their pickled veggies & they were SO good, especially the pickled cucumbers and whatever the red veggies are! I also got a side of their garlic sauce because I love garlic sauce, & it was pretty good. It was $4.00 but you get a good amount. We also both got their Polo frozen mint lemonade drink which was really refreshing & tasty, but you best like mint because it was a strong mint flavor-which I love. What I didn't love is about a 1/4 way through I just kept getting so much pulp I just sadly quit drinking it. We greatly appreciated the mainly eco friendly takeout boxes. They did have the silver bottoms with plastic tops for the "soupier" items, but they also used the cardboard ones. I will say I think the cardboard did no favors for the fries as they were sitting in a sweaty box with no airflow, but I still prefer and appreciate cardboard over styrofoam. I would return for the entrees, rice and pickled veggies! read more

Tried fattoush for the first time last night and enjoyed it a lot! I ordered the polo drink and it was great, very refreshing and sour, they must have used sweet mint because it wasn't too minty which I liked. I ordered the hummus which was very good and came with a lot of pita, I could taste the tahini which gave it a complex flavor palate. I also ordered the fattoush salad and it was good, the best part was the dressing. For my main meal I got the shawarma plate and it had a lot of flavor! The more I ate the more I liked it it was nicely seasoned and had pickles inside which was a nice way to cut the flavor of the meat. It was also a very large portion that came with hummus, fries, and more pickles. I would definitely go here again it was a chill ambiance with good service. read more

I had lamb shank at this restaurant. I believe they called it different on the menu. The taste was amazing. Normally, lamb shank is tricky to cook to the perfection. I just suggest that the owner keeps a smile on his face. However, I still give him a 5 star. read more

We ordered food online from this restaurant. We showed up and they claimed they never received the order. We had to put the order on a second credit card. When we left, the first order posted to the first credit card and when we disputed it, the restaurant submitted the first receipt despite claiming they never received it. Neither the CC company nor the restaurant reimbursed us despite paying twice for the same meal and having receipts to show for it. read more

This review is a work of fiction and is intended to be humorous. I'd give Fattoush & Grille Bakery 5 out of 5 stars, with a major asterisk. The food is absolutely incredible. The Fattoush salad is so good it should be illegal, and the kebabs are so tender they practically apologize before you eat them. But here's the thing: it's also a bakery. A bakery with so many glorious pastries that I now have a serious internal conflict every time I visit. My brain says, "Get the healthy salad!" but my taste buds scream, "NO! Get the baklava! And the knafeh! And maybe a whole tray of maamoul for the road!" I've gone from a person who 'eats healthy' to a person who 'eats healthy...ish...depending on how many pastries I can fit in my mouth at once.' I'm pretty sure the staff thinks I'm a professional food critic, but really I'm just a person with a severe pastry addiction. So if you see me there, don't judge. I'm not a glutton, I'm just a victim of their delicious, delicious bakery items. You have been warned. read more

Fattoush is perhaps the most flavorful Middle Eastern cuisine outside of the Middle East... the restaurant's savory and sweet selections are certainly tops in Central Mass. Order a hummus plate to start your meal, but don't fill up on the fresh Syrian-style (thin) pita bread. If your party is three or more, the appetizer sample showcases the chef's range: The Pumpkin kibbe is soft, warm, and tasty on the inside; the grape leaves fresh and drizzled with EVOO and balsamic vinaigrette; the best offering is the grilled kibbe--the hot crisp outside "protects" a savory, meaty, and delicious inside. The menu offers a robust mix of entrees, sandwiches. meat/vegetable pies, and "specials". your best bet is ordering the Kofta Kabob and a delicious cold glass of Polo--fresh frozen mint lemonade that blunts some of the heat of Fattoush's spicier offerings. Another can't miss dish is Shish Tawok--delectably seasoned chicken with saffron-infused rice. Finish it all off with Fattoush's baklava--not too sweet and the perfect end to a delicious and surprisingly affordable culinary experience. read more

I've been eager to try Fattoush as I am a big fan of middle eastern-Mediterranean cuisine. We stopped in around 7:15pm on a Saturday night and were promptly seated in a fairly empty restaurant, though the dining room quickly filled up after we arrived. We started with an order of hummus and pita. The hummus was very good, as it was smooth and creamy, with pronounced tahini flavor. Forget that supermarket stuff...this is how hummus should be! Unfortunately, it was accompanied by thin, dry pita, that was oddly served in a plastic bag as if prepared for takeout. We shared a Sampler Platter and Shish Tawook. Both of the skinny grape leaves and meat and pumpkin kibbeh had nice flavor and texture. We preferred those to the mild sambousek and grilled kibbeh, which had a very fatty lamb flavor. We were glad to try a variety, but next time I'd stick to the kibbeh and grape leaves. All of the appetizers were enhanced by dipping in the hummus, so highly recommend getting at least one accompanying dip. The Shish Tawook was flavorful, but not spicy. A few pieces were dry though, and again, without any provided tahini, z'houg or garlic sauce, the hummus was necessary to complete the dish. The atmosphere is hard to describe. It is a step up from a counter service chain restaurant, as there is table service. But, water is only available in plastic bottles for sale, and the only drink options are cans/bottles (no glasses on table). It is very kid friendly...perhaps an understatement...even at 8:00pm on a Saturday night, noisy kids being ignored by their parents were blaring iPhones, etc. Certainly not the dining table etiquette our family practices, so just set your expectations accordingly. They do seem to do a significant takeout business, which might be the way to go. It's also a bit odd that they automatically charge a 3% credit card convenience fee without even asking how you will be paying. I'll likely return to try a shawarma sandwich or something, as they seem better suited for a grab and go casual set up, though the prices are more reflective of a full service dining experience. read more

We accidently ordered from this Fattoush rather than the one on Arlington. When we realized our mistake we asked if we could get our money back and they could restock our order. They refused saying it would be thrown out. Not only will we never go there we will certainly not recommend it to anyone. read more

I don't post often but service here was just terrible. Many tables seated after we're served before us and it took informing the the server twice that we had not been served. Food came out about an hour after placing the order. Asked for take out containers and check and another 30 minutes have gone by without attention. Other tables have come after our arrival and left finishing their meal. Understaffed or not paying attention or both. Now for the food...delicious and fresh. Had the Kafta kebab and the meza sampler perfectly prepared and juicy. Some of the best I have had including my experiences in Boston. Despite the service. Am willing to try again but if service is similar I can't come back. read more

With an average five star review on Yelp, and the rarity of Syrian restaurants in Connecticut, I popped into Fattoush Grill & Bakery on my way back from a conference to select something to take home. The thoughtfully organized menu with photos and ingredients of each dish made selection less overwhelming. The service is friendly -- I was given a gratis warm and crisp meat kibbeh to taste before I embarked on the two and a half hour drive home. This was spectacular in appearance, texture, and taste. I ordered the Maza sampler, which included familiar dips, as well as several I had never encountered before. The platter is so colorful, with a range of flavors, from refreshing labneh to spicy muhammara. I look forward to returning whenever I drive through Massachusetts! Parking is easy, with plenty of spaces next to the quaint stand-alone train track-side building. read more

If there was a negative review, I would go with that. DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND NEVER EVER EAT AT THIS PLACE. My family got sick after we had their chicken shish and when I called them to report this, the owner Ahmad who thinks he's smart but that's a misconception on his part started blaming me that I am just making excuses about the whole food poisoning issue and the reasoning given by him was hilarious - He said that when I paid for this take out food, I used my CORPORATE card and split it between two payments which I did split, but the corporate side is not true and the splitting is my wish and what I want to do and then he started saying that I want free food so I am making this food poisoning story up so the restaurant can refund my corporate card and then I can pocket that money and also get reimbursed from my employer. I don't know where does he even get this thought from unless he has done something like this himself in the past, he definitely did that's why he's thinking that far out. Firstly, how does he even know if I have a corporate card? This makes no sense. He completely deviated from what the original issue here was and started accusing me and then said I will contact your employer and report this as a corporate credit card fraud. Go get yourself a life. He has been harassing me over text since then. He's been very sneaky and trying to find out more info on me and trying to use that against me to threaten me. Here are his text messages to me trying to bully and harass me thinking this would freak me out. Guys you definitely don't want to deal with a bully like him. He can try to take advantage of anyone specially the weak. GO FOCUS ON HOW BETTER YOU CAN RUN YOUR BUSINESS AND CUSTOMER CONCERNS AND NOT HOW YOU CAN HARASS AND THREATEN PEOPLE. YOU GOT THE WRONG GUY ON THE OTHER END. I had also reached out on instagram over the weekend and the response from him was "Stop harassing us you animal". Screenshot attached as well read more

This is a super delicious and very authentic middle eastern restaurant. We got a variety of appetizers and 3 mains to share, family style with 5 people. Some highlights: the hummus was creamy and very authentic, the foul madamas was maybe the best I've ever had. In The mixed grill, the chicken was moist and flavorful, the kafta was also very flavorful. The most interesting dish was probably the pumpkin kibbeh. I've never had a vegetarian kibbeh, but now I want this all the time, pumpkin, spinach and some spices. Yummy! It's an unassuming restaurant, next to some train tracks, but don't let that discourage you! read more

Really enjoyed our dinner at Fattoush. Traveling to visit family and we were craving Middle Eastern food. Very friendly service and the food was great. We shared their pumpkin kibeh which was great/ really tasted the sumac ; I had a fattoush salad which was classic and just what I was looking for with a nice light dressing I believe was made with a splash of pomegranate syrup; husband had Kafka kabab which he enjoyed. Well worth returning if we are in the area. read more

‼Please think twice if you order here. I had an awful experience with Fattoush Grill & Bakery in Northborough, MA. I ordered 10 boxes of dessert through UberEats, but they only sent 6 boxes -- that's 4 boxes missing despite the receipt clearly showing the correct order. When we called to report the issue, the staff's response was incredibly unprofessional. First, the guy claimed, "We're closed, we left, we can't do anything now." Yet their listed closing time is 8 PM, and we called well before that -- so why were they refusing to help? Then he changed his story, saying, "We had a buffet today." If they were "closed," how were they still running a buffet? It felt like they were just making excuses and avoiding responsibility. Instead of offering a solution, all they kept saying was, "We can't, we can't," followed by, "We forgot." To make things worse, they still haven't refunded the $32 for the missing boxes or any of the service and delivery fees. If someone else buys food for you (like a gift or group order), it's even harder to know if items are missing until much later -- making their careless mistake even more frustrating. This was such a terrible experience -- careless service, no accountability, and zero effort to fix their mistake. I won't be giving them another chance, and I strongly advise others to think twice before ordering from here. read more

The food is above average for Arabic food in the area. Tastes very homemade and they are not just catering to Western palates. Prices are quite reasoanble for the quality and quantity. Petty much no ambience - and a soccer game was playing loudly on one of the overhead TVs -like in a sports bar. Pita was dry and thin- although they do bake fresh Syrian bread for a little extra. We asked for water and they gave us bottles vs tap. A no-no. And a can of soda was deposited at the opposite end of the table unaccompanied by a glass. (although there was a straw.) You go for the food- not the rest. But the rest would be nice. read more

The Fatteth was delicious. A dish hard to find in restaurants. The chicken shawarma huge! One will be enough for two people if you have other dishes. I could not finish it.

I've eaten here so many times that I've probably gone up a pants-size. The Meza Plate is a great app for the family, both of my kids love the shwarma (the actual kids' menu is also good), the falafel plate is tasty, the fries are perfectly seasoned, and my husband loves the pickled veggies. Usually we order takeout, but when we've gone in everyone has been warm, welcoming, and professional. The restaurant has a nice vibe to it, and they were very helpful when the wrong DoorDaser picked up our order. My favorite restaurant in the area. read more

I loved Fattoush! It is a small business with amazing food. It is cute and the food is excellent! There is a really nice variety of dips and you can sample them in the Meza Sampler. My favorites are the Hummus, Lebne, Mutabal Shawandar, and the Muhammara. The pita bread is made in house and it is AMAZING. I had the chicken port saiid ( chicken and mushrooms with a lemon sauce) and I loved it. It's very well seasoned, and quite lemony. It might be one of my all time favorite dishes. I also had a zaatar syrian pie. It's a flatbread spread with a thick layer of herbs and sesame seeds and oil and then toasted. I liked it and I would love to try some of the other flavors. I was disappointed that there was no Turkish coffee on the day we went. It's on the menu but they were out of stock. But the mint lemonade was very good. It was very refreshing and went very well with everything. They also have options for desserts but there was so much good food that I didn't want anything else right then. The server was very knowledgeable about what things are and he was very helpful and attentive. I will definitely be coming back next time I am in town. I want to try several of the other menu items. read more

Best hummus ever! So much flavor, it would have been enough to only eat it for a meal. I had a mixed (chicken and beef) shawarma wrap, hubby had chicken shawarma. I enjoyed all the little extra tastes in my wrap. A second trip to try more menu items is required. read more

Absolutely the best tasting Middle East food we had in a long, long while. The samplers are a great deal and they offer you the opportunity to explore the flavors and textures that make their food so delicious! We tried the Meza sampler, great combo of tasty dips - hummus, lebne, baba ghanouj, mutabal(close to baba ghanouj but with a stronger tahini twist, mutabal shawandar(beets) and muhammara (red bell peppers and garlic). There was plentiful and had to stop to make space for the entrees! - hint: you could also use them as dressing for your salad! The chicken shawarma sandwich was great and the mixed grill - lamb kebab, kofta kebab and shish tawook was spectacular-best tasting grill meat and flavorful spices. Service was attentive and courteous, making you feel welcomed! Prices were reasonable for some generous portions! The place is cozy and inviting, well kept and clean! If you are into Middle East food or would like to try it, this is the place to go. Btw - the desserts were ok and good, but not on the same category of greatness than the food - certainly no need to send them back but could work on making them a little sweeter! read more

We are always seeking out locally-owned, smaller-sized,ethnic restaurants wherever we go. Fattoush was a GREAT find this week in Northborough. The restaurant is family-owned and run by the friendliest people and while not at all fancy, is a pleasant and very clean place to eat. No formalities here. There is coffee and delicious hot black tea available (I believe complementary), and on a serve yourself basis. We started with a delicious yellow lentil soup and also a delicious hummus, served with an ample amount of very thin and fresh pita. For our main dishes, my wife had the chicken shawarma platter. Moist and tender white meat chicken, wrapped in delicious thin pita bread - the dish was well-seasoned and served with a wonderful garlicky labneh, pickles and a bunch of French fries. I had a dish called Lahmeh bil Saniyeha which is made from ground lamb, onions, peppers and very nicely seasoned. I believe that this dish is grilled. The meat was extremely flavorful and was topped with some grilled tomatoes and a little thin tahini. Sort of like a lamb burger but not bland at all There was enough left over of everything for us to take home for another meal. For dessert we had kunefe - a typical middle Eastern dessert made from cheese, and some type of shredded or crumbled dough. It's cooked in a small pan and topped with a sugar syrup. Delicious! We left with full stomachs and a great feeling about this wonderful local eatery. We will definitely return, with the idea of exploring the menu more fully. At that time we will be sure to amend this review. read more
