Chicken shawarma plate
Heather S.

First time trying this place! Ordered delivery via Door Dash; received it quickly so service must have been timely. I had the chicken shawarma plate with hummus and garden salad, and baklava. The flavor of the chicken and rice with garlic sauce was delicious, but next time I would order extra sauce as there wasn't quite enough. The hummus and salad with stuffed grape leaves complemented it perfectly. The baklava was a bit drier and less sweet than I'm used to. Overall, very good!

Chicken Shawarma with side of Hummus and Hot Hot
Mark T.

Does anyone remember the Purple Eggplant Pizzeria that used to be here? It closed so rapidly you'd think the owners and staff had to go into witness protection or something! Well, Shawarma and Shakes opened up in its place, and I finally decided to give them a try. Ordered the chicken shawarma with hummus and hot-hot. The hummus was delightful! It has a thinner consistency (which I don't mind by any means), and tasted homemade! Hot-hot, which is a blend of peppers in an oil (sauce?) brought the heat, but were a delight as well as a medium scorcher (be forewarned - I have higher-than-average heat tolerance). The plate also came with pita bread. Two notes on sides: First, I would have liked the hot-hot to be a little less oily, but I realize that can be a logistic challenge. Second, I would have liked more of both, since the amounts weren't very proportional to the main. Finally, pita bread was not the greatest I'd even had. And that main though! The portion size was very filling, and I can EAT. If you don't have a tendency to eat like a vacuum cleaner, split this with a friend (this is why I was mentioning the amount of sides). The chicken was cooked and seasoned nicely, the rice was cooked perfectly, and the garlic sauce added a very nice touch without being overwhelming. Everything was well balanced too with not too much chicken or rice. For fresh, hot food, it didn't take too long, about 10 minutes give or take. Price was reasonable considering the portion size/quality also. Overall, nothing mind-blowing or worth driving an hour for, but if you're close-ish and feeling some shawarma, absolutely give it a go.

Mixed Shawarma Plate
Jessica B.

This place is a nice change of pace! After hearing good things, I decided to give it a try for lunch. I ordered the mixed shawarma plate with hummus, salad and extra garlic sauce. The mixed shawarma (chicken & beef) was juicy and well-seasoned. The bed of rice it was sitting on was so light, fluffy and tasty, I could of eaten a plate of that alone and I'm usually not a big rice person. The homemade hummus is some of the best I've ever had and that garlic sauce - it needs to be bottled and sold by the jar!! Give this place a try when you're looking for something different other than the usual sub/pizza take out!

Probably the worst Shawarma wrap I've ever had. It tasted like nothing for $15. Fries were soggy too.

To my unfortunate surprise, I had squeezed a good amount of hot sauce all over my platter and wasn't able to eat around it. All I remember was the first few bites were delicious until I couldn't taste anything but hot sauce anymore. That was completely my fault. Fast forward they opened a location closer to home. I am so glad I tried it again because man... it is just so dang good, homey, comforting, and delicious! The service and staff at this location is impeccable. They are literally the cleanest people I ever seen working for a chain. I mean who cleans the stove vent in the middle of service? They do. (And yes, they protected and covered the food properly.) I've never seen one rice kernel out of place and have yet to see anything not shiny let alone sticky. Staff is quick, attentive, work well together, and also upsell you nonchalantly. Girl sold me a cookie I didn't even want but willingly bought without being pushy...that's impressive. Anyway,I highly recommend!

I never expected to find something like this in Boston…read more Bab Al Yemen offers a flavor profile that's genuinely unique and unlike anything you'll find at most restaurants, not just in Boston, but honestly in many places around the world. Through extensive travel across the U.S. and internationally, I had never come across a Yemeni restaurant before. What made this experience even more special was how authentic it felt from start to finish. Everything, from the food to the atmosphere and even the diverse mix of diners enjoying their meals at tables and on traditional floor seating, made for a truly immersive experience. I ordered a dish built around falafel and rice, something I've eaten countless times at Mediterranean and Middle Eastern restaurants over the years. Yet somehow, Bab Al Yemen transformed familiar ingredients into something entirely their own. The execution was flawless, and the seasoning and flavor profile were unlike any version I've had before. If there's such a thing as an elevated falafel-and-rice dish, this is it. For anyone looking to explore a cuisine that's difficult to find and experience something authentically different, Bab Al Yemen is absolutely worth a visit. It was one of the most memorable meals of my trip to Boston.

Holy Moly! For some…read morereason they wanted to sandwich us between other customers in a tiny table then let us sit at a less crowded space! Imagine losing a customer over them being rude with where you want to sit in a half empty restaurant.

This restaurant is charming, always clean, cheerful, and filled with friendly staff. I see lots of…read moreregulars here too, which to me is always a good sign as I don't think anybody would come back to a place the food or service were not good. The menu changes with new items quite a bit, but old favorites are always available. The ingredients are very fresh and include vegetable vegetables and fruits and whole-grain breads and more. I've had some fantastic chicken rice soup there, various "toast" options which include peanut butter or Nutella, fresh berries, honey, and more and are always delicious. I've had white chili which I would definitely order again. They have a special toast option that has hummus, hot sauce and egg to which I always add mashed avocado: this is one of my favorites And I've had a fabulous French toast with real maple syrup, which is one of my all-time favorites anywhere and it is especially delicious here. This business offers all of this plus a wide array of smoothie beverages. One of my favorites is the PB cup smoothie : Banana, Teddy's Natural Peanut Butter, Flax Seeds, Organic Chocolate Protein, Almond Milk and Chocolate Drizzle. Because I love heat, and I added it to virtually everything, I ask for a generous shake of cayenne pepper. Don't knock it till you try it! The lunch is here are awesome as well. My favorite is the turkey apple flatbread sandwich. It has sliced turkey, green apple, cheddar cheese & honey mustard pressed in naan bread. There are only two instances where I've had food that I haven't liked here: one was a sandwich that had a arugula on it, but that is simply because I just don't like arugula. No fault of the establishment. The other was the tuna fish sandwich, which I believe had way too much salt. One of my coworkers had the tuna sandwich and felt the same way. Other than these two small instances over the course of many many visits for breakfast and lunches I have no complaints. I highly recommend this establishment.
