The food is always spot on and the owner is such a nice guy and always treats my family with respect and kindness. Being from New York, we're always looking for a good chicken over rice place and we definitely don't have to look any further. read more

It's a bit of a take out place, food was hot ,tasty. If you want super healthy this one is not. Also not a full restaurant. Lots of tasty food for sure. read more

One of the things I miss most about nyc is getting to eat halal cart. So happy Mo Grill opened up here in Somerville! We had the shawarma platter on a Sunday. Got to eat outside on division st and enjoy the fresh and delicious meat, rice and salad.. Of course the white sauce and red sauce are a must. The red sauce is not as spicy as the nyc halal cart so feel free to pour it on!! Highly recommend for delivery and takeout. FYI There are three outdoor tables, no inside seating. read more

Food and service tremendous. The meat is tender and flavorful, and service with a smile. I highly recommend this restaurant.

I have lunch here all the time. The food is very good, nice size portions, and always happy with my meal!

We ordered food to go today. Ordered seven meals with chicken shwarma platters, mixed shwarma platter, falafel, shwarma sandwich, and rice pudding, baklava, and the owner threw in an order of knufava(sp) for us to try as well. 1. Food cooked fresh, we do not mind the wait for fresh food. Prefer to wait actually and have fresh food vs something pre-made and warmed up. We waited about 15 minutes for 7 meals which is not bad, especially since they were very busy today. 2. Food was excellent. Huge portions for the price, well seasoned meat, flavorful rice, excellent pita sandwich. Rice pudding was delicious and coconut touched, baklava good (I prefer mine crispy which I know is hard when it is pre-cut) but flavor and quality was there. Knufava was delicious as well, and a bit less sweet than the baklava. My whole family enjoyed immensely and we will be back often. Very happy to support small local business. Like to spend our money at local establishments instead of big chains, especially when the quality is as good as it was today at Mo's grill. Mo - if you can put umbrellas up on your tables outside, we will stay and eat next time....:) read more

Amazing customer service! It was my first time and I ordered the hummus, and two chicken kebab platters, the platters came with chicken, salad and rice and let me tell you, it was seasoned to perfection by the Halal Gods!!! The hummus was also the best Ive ever had!! The owner also gave me a baklava to try and I was not disappointed! Can't wait to try the rest of the menu! read more

Whew!!! What a new taste in town and well worth it. First let me say all "Mediterranean" food is not the same. Don't assume you had something like this before. Very very fresh. Worth the time they prep your food. Their seasoning is extremely flavorful and savory and nuanced. The hot spice is not what leads the pack here. Their red sauce is delightful. I highly recommend the meat combo, fries,the mango and Sobia beverages, the rice pudding and baklava. We instantly became fans for all of the above. Customer service was a joy. I have a deep respect for when owners have a humble pride about sharing their gifts with you. It was a pleasure doing business with them. read more

Yum! I've always loved going into nyc, and now that Mo Grill is open, I won't have to! Food is great, portions are great, service is great! I always ask for extra white sauce on the side, and they were more than happy to provide. Will be back again! read more

The food was delicious and the service was even better. We ordered the food for pick up and our server was very friendly. He packed the food well, separating the hot food from the cold, and he was generous with the sauces. I ordered the meat combo platter. The meat was succulent and everything was well seasoned. My family enjoyed their chicken kabob dinners and baba ganoush. The prices are very fair, especially as downtown Somerville can get a little pricey for dinner. I will be back, definitely. read more

I stopped by when it first opened, the owners could not be friendlier. The food that I purchased to try was delicious and fresh. The Baba Ganouj and falafels were excellent, their desserts equally delicious. The Baklava was sweet but not overpowering, just perfect. read more

Food was delicious, again. 2nd time coming here. Got the mixed gyro platter, falafel and rice pudding. Falafel was some of the best I have had. It was very moist which is not common. Owner comped the rice pudding cause a mix up and also threw in a baklava for free!! Owner is truly a gentlemen, always nice talking with him and the food is awesome. Also the owner is a former pastry chef from France! Be sure to try the desserts . Come here if you like great food and awesome people/ service read more

I've gotten a lot of takeout halal in my days and I must say Mo Grill is some of the tastiest I've had yet! I happened to be in the area and went on a whim and got a combo platter. The spices were very fragrant and full of flavor making some other places seem bland in comparison. The meat was very tender and juicy and the toppings and sauces are heavenly as well. I'm not from the area, but I will make sure to stop here again next time I'm driving by! read more

I had the beef platter, and my wife had the baba ghanoush. Both were very flavorful. We ate in front of the restaurant, in the cool evening. We'll be back when we're in town. Try this place out. You'll love it. read more

Some of the best food in Somerville! Everything was SO flavorful, beautifully presented, and filling! Can't wait to get takeout here again and again!! read more

I crave chicken and rice now and then. It was some thing I really enjoyed when I worked in New York City. I have it whenever I can, but it is usually only available when I'm traveling for work to cities like Boston and New York. Therefore, I was pleasantly surprised to discover this takeout place in downtown Somerville. The food is absolutely delicious, very affordable, and the people are very nice. I highly recommend the food and their speciality milk drink. Great bite for when you need a fast lunch. It's already becoming one of my favorite spots. read more

Everything I've had here been great. The falafel is the best I've had in New Jersey. The meat platter and gyros are delicious and generous portions. The tres leches and rice pudding were perfectly sweet. The owner Mo is very kind and helpful. Always a positive experience when we go to Mo's. The drinks are also very tasty. We also had Mo cater our sons birthday and everything worked out perfectly. Gotta go to Mo's!!! read more

Great service and delicious food. Ordered out, and arrived quickky. Highly recommend the Hawawshi - moist and flavor meat layered with onion and stuffed into a pita. Succulent and a great treat. Sufficient for a meal, but best shared. Koshari is a vegetarian delight - rice, lentils, pasta - just the right amount of spice, and very much a meal unto itself. Meat combo platter is generous - tender morsels of chicken, and souvlaki, with salad and rice. Hummus and babaganuj were fresh and the best! Treat yourself to the rice pudding and sobia; you'll savor every mouthful! Thank you!!! read more

First time trying this restaurant- fantastic meal! Meats were super tender, flavorful, and seasoned well. Incredibly generous portion- you absolutely get what you pay for and then some. Hawawshi was an excellent compliment to the platter and everything tasted so fresh and prepared with care. Staff could not have been more nice and I would go to this place for their kindness alone. Will be returning ASAP. read more

Got a gyro platter, kofta platter, and lentil soup. They also threw in a piece of baklava for me to try on the house! Here is my review of the place: the place is very small and primarily carryout only. They do have one table with a couple of chairs, but I think their business model is takeout. It is very clean on the inside. The gentleman at the register is very cordial and friendly. They serve quickly! I think I waited at most 5 minutes for my order, though I think this will depend on how busy they are at the time. When I went, there was only one other person there picking up an order. As for the food, the kofta was amazingly delicious. Had lots of flavor and was spiced nicely. The gyro was decent and had good flavor too. My favorite was the kofta but my wife liked the gyro. The lentil soup was somehow a little too sweet for me, but perhaps that is how the Egyptian version of it is. The icing on the cake was the piece of baklava they gave me to try. It was beyond flavorful and, usually I hate how sweet baklava is, but this one drizzled in honey had the perfect balance of sweetness and crunch! Definitely looking forward to eating here again! Come on ... halal mediterranean/egyptian fast food in Somerville! read more

Excellent middle eastern takeout!! We got several platters, including chicken, beef, and seafood, and all were delicious The meats were all very tender and perfectly spiced and sauced. Portions were generous and you can't beat the price. The rice pudding was also very good and the baklava was outstanding read more

This restaurant is awesome!! Went twice and confirmed my initial thoughts - food is super delicious and fresh! The owner is also a really nice person which makes it even better. Had the chicken, falafel and desserts and they were all so tasty! The rice was also good - certainly fresh! read more

Good service. Super fresh salad on my platter. Great presentation. Can't go wrong with gyro or mixed plate.

The best!! I go there at least once a week for the chicken shawarma. The tres leches is also worth every single calorie! I can't say enough good stuff about their food and service. read more

Honestly wasn't sure what to expect but I found the food the be really good with nice size portions. They are a little pricey but they are also located on division street so can't really complain. The one complaint I have is that they don't offer lamb which I feel like should be a staple of a place like this but again over all good food and nice people. read more

Best Halal in the tri state!! The savory flavor and portion sizes are all the reason to come back. Really diverse menu but not overwhelming. Cant wait to come back! read more

I went into Mo Grill on Saturday cause I got hungry. I ordered the shish kabob platter. I think they gave me chicken instead of beef but either way. It was really really good! It's gotta be chicken thigh they use cause it was juicy and tender. Flavor was on point. Wife had rice pudding and baklava and loved it. The person at the counter was so generous as well. He let me try their baba ganoush and next time I'm definitely gonna get some of that read more

Great alternative to halal guys! I love their kofta shish kebab and beef gyro! The location is very convenient and at the heart of the sommerville downtown which usually has music on weekends. I just wish they will place more chairs outside read more

The food is fantastic! My fiancé and I have been here a few times and are always impressed with the quality and portion sizes. Our favorite items are the meat combo platter and the chicken shawarma sandwich-they are so good! The meat is always tender and seasoned perfectly. And whatever the red and white sauce is, you'll love it! Tonight we tried the tres leche cake and it was a great way to end the meal. The owners are super friendly and genuine. You can tell they care about the quality of food and making sure you enjoy your meal. Do yourself a favor and stop in, you won't be disappointed!!! read more

Awesome local halal food, incredible service and hospitality, 110% would recommend to anyone looking for a great local meal.

As a New York City guy who is used to feeding off Halal Guys, I wanna give Mo Grill two thumbs up. Some of the best Mediterranean food in Somerville. read more

Very quality food, wonderful service, and generally very affordable. While small indoors, the beautiful patio seating in the heart of downtown makes up for that and more. I've been living here for a few months now and Mo Grill remains as my favorite spot in town, hands down. read more
