    Cleopatra Wrap
    Aya R.

    Dining method: Catering Item(s) ordered: I ate the Cleopatra wrap, but we ordered several others. The review: The cleopatra wrap was brimming with tabouli (tabbouleh?) and flavor. For a vegan option, it proved very filling and flavorful. That being said, the falafel was very dry and, in the middle of a work meeting, that might not be the best to have in your throat. The catering arrived slightly late into the meeting, so I would just make sure they know if there's a hard deadline. Wonderful service. Everyone enjoyed a variety of the other wraps and sandwiches with meat, and said they were very good. I would totally go back to see what the actual restaurant looks like, and would love to try one of the Greek wraps next!

    I tried their turkey burger with "cranberry mayo" and they slapped canned cranberry sauce with some mayo mixed in. What a disappointment. I talked to an employee and they did nothing to remedy this issue.

    Chicken Gyro Basket!
    Andrea D.

    I came in for a late lunch and was glad I did! I read reviews online and I had to try. I ordered the Chicken Gyro Basket which I seen was mentioned a lot. It was so good! To start the gyro tasted great. The tzatziki sauce was so good. The addition of the tasty homemade french fries made this a very filling meal! I highly recommend giving the Chicken Gyro Basket a try! I look forward to returning and trying more!

    Lentil soup (bowl) - 3 stars (Friday night 2013-12-13)
    Ziyan C.

    Things go keep in mind: - No tables here! Not a big issue but not exactly the best place for 5 people to catch up. There's a row of seats along the counter at the window (maybe 10 total). Much more of a pick-up to-go place. - Saw tons of cops come here to grab dinner. My friend made a good point that any restaurant where you see a lot of cops or EMT workers means it's definitely a great local spot - they will know the neighborhood better than just about anyone. - We could all tell a lot of the desserts were Costco-bought, being big Costco fans ourselves. (Recognized the brownies, saw the packaged cookies on the shelf, and the chocolate cake definitely tasted familiar) I feel like I can't really give a rating on these items since they don't make them in-house. Can't comment on the cheesecake & baklava, maybe they make those. Cost: $11.75 for a wrap & curly fries. Very inexpensive, very quick, & lots of options. Must-haves: Fresh Fish & Chips, Mac & Cheese bites, Spicy Curly fries (if you don't mind that it's not too spicy). Menu: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/mamas-place-boston?select=hSvX00xGkjnc75TqIcZ-Bw#7C7vHK1vwtoVfS5S8V001g GREEK CUISINE * Gyro Sandwich, Beef ($6.95) - 3.5 stars pic: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/mamas-place-boston?select=hSvX00xGkjnc75TqIcZ-Bw#DmHjAOrHqq4gIodI3wI72A cross-section: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/mamas-place-boston?select=hSvX00xGkjnc75TqIcZ-Bw#PyUDn76Hqz-ypZ0onrJq_Q The bread is pretty thick and soft, but could have been just a little more toasted. The meat was good but I would have loved even more sauce to bring everything together! The ingredients weren't distributed the best - a layer of meat, a layer of shredded lettuce, a couple slices of tomato, and sauce drizzled on top. SOUPS * Lentil soup ($3.95 for a bowl) - 3 stars pic: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/mamas-place-boston?select=hSvX00xGkjnc75TqIcZ-Bw#hSvX00xGkjnc75TqIcZ-Bw Interesting that they gave those small crackers that normally come with clam chowder. The soup was pretty thick, lots of good texture from the lentil, but it was really bland in flavor. SIDE ORDERS * Spicy Curly Fries ($3.75) - 3.5 stars pic: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/mamas-place-boston?select=hSvX00xGkjnc75TqIcZ-Bw#eDFRF0b9kWT0caIKnm0aAg Absolutely perfect texture. An evenly slightly thick layer of flaky crisp. You bite through it to a warm soft inner part. Just perfectly thick. I just wish these were more spicy! Definitely could've used more flavor. You do get a giant serving. * Mac & Cheese Bites ($4.95) - 4 stars pic: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/mamas-place-boston?select=hSvX00xGkjnc75TqIcZ-Bw#UPcasjjpqu0EgTEi5Vwzuw cross-section: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/mamas-place-boston?select=hSvX00xGkjnc75TqIcZ-Bw#Sk8ZmZ_uiCDwPTGdZNJg1g You get a smaller serving, but this was really great. Triangles of mac & cheese (creamy, soft, fantastic), surrounded in a thick perfectly crisped layer of batter. The cocktail sauce went great with this. FISH & SHRIMP * Fresh Fish & Chips - 4 stars (w/ fries, coleslaw, & homemade tartar sauce. $9.25) pic: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/mamas-place-boston?select=hSvX00xGkjnc75TqIcZ-Bw#j_3kEFwPl0f9E_QCWUER1A Wow, probably the best quality fish I've ever had in a fish & chips dish! Really tender and soft. The batter was a little soft and soggy, though. The chips were even fish-flavored, probably friend in the same oil! However, while the middle part was soft and chewy, the outer part once again didn't have enough crisp, unlike the curly fries. You do get a giant plate and overall this was pretty great. MAMA'S WRAPS * Cleopatra's Wrap - 3 stars (hummus, tabouli, falafel & tahini sauce, cucumber, tomatoes. $6.95) pic: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/mamas-place-boston?select=hSvX00xGkjnc75TqIcZ-Bw#NE9HntahR-P1m6a0-q7gqQ I thought this was an amazing deal, and you do get a huge wrap for this great price. Remember that you aren't getting any meat, which I was aware of. However, this IS a cold wrap (I thought the falafel might be toasted!), and the wrap itself was VERY stale and hard to bite through. This made it really hard to enjoy, especially since the hummus was absolutely delicious, very thick and fresh-tasting, the dominant flavor, and went so well with all the other ingredients.

The staff was super friendly and the ordering process was smooth. I got the regular chocolate vanilla swirl soft serve on a cone and it was so delicious. Creamy and refreshing.

They both also came with plantain chips. Really like how creative this place is with their unique ingredients in dishes that can otherwise be pretty simple. For dessert, we had a 5-pack of vegan chocolate chip cookies. These were warm, delicious and homemade. They hit the spot. The best test though? I didn't feel gross or overly full after eating this food. It felt very fresh and healthy. Until I get the chance to visit this place in person, I'll continue to order delivery from it! Highly recommend if you are in the mood for some good healthy food.

Friendly and helpful staff. I rate 4.5, but will give 5 as no intermediate option. Improvements would mainly be timing of different courses delivered at table (was fast, but more time between mezzo and mains would be better). I believe that this small business has even greater potential.

    To me, whenever I think about Boston, all I know is its strong seafood presence. However being in…read morethe suburbs of Boston, it gave me the opportunity to try other cuisines, and I was excited to see this authentic Turkish restaurant not far from my hotel. Ironically, I found this place when I was looking up ice cream. They serve authentic Turkish ice cream, and it's been something I've been wanting to try. In addition to the ice cream, I ordered Manti (Turkish dumplings) and Uludag soda (which they say is a Turkish ginger ale). I loooooooooved the Manti. While the dumplings were filled with meat, the dish overall felt light since each dumpling is like the size of a quarter. The dumplings had a nice chew, and the sauces made the dish rich yet creamy. The Uludag soda was definitely much lighter than a ginger ale. Tasted like a light citrusy drink, and it's less sweet than American sodas. The ice cream had a nice pull and chew, although it didn't look as stretchy as Turkish ice creams I've seen. Nice amount of pistachio flavor throughout. I came on a weekday lunch, so there was ample seating inside. Ordering is done via a QR code on your table or on a tablet stand in the middle of the restaurant. Service was quick and friendly, making it a great experience overall.
