MEGA PLATE
Anthony M.

INCREDIBLE food. Go-to place for halal-cart style cuisine. Outrageous portions, you definitely get your money's worth. Get extra white+red sauce on the side!

Lamb & Chicken Plate and Onion Rings
Anita L.

Finally made my way here - it is located right next to UML's North campus so prepare for some traffic across the bridge. I ordered the onion rings and chicken and lamb plate - it took about 5 minutes. Portions are huge like the other reviews mentioned. The onion rings were so hot, crispy, and flavorful - you can see that oil on the bag so you know it'll be good! For the plate, unpopular opinion but I didn't love the white sauce. I've had Halal Guys, but this was too mayo-ey for me, and there was *a lot* of it (and covered all the salad). I wish there was more hot sauce, so next time I'll probably ask for less white sauce or white sauce on the side and extra hot sauce. The hot sauce is hot, so it's great on top of the white sauce. The chicken also wasn't as flavorful as the lamb. I can see why this is such an establishment - fast food and huge portions! My order cost about $25, so increased prices but that's inflation nowadays. They also have drinks for sale.

Lamb chicken rice plate
Nelle C.

Yummy food truck! Quick friendly service Food is filling! Large portion for the $buck$ I got the lamb gyro ! It's huge and flavorful. I did ask for spicy but I don't know if they forgot cause I didn't taste any spice. Lamb, chicken rice- yummy I tasted the spice in this. It was a 2/10 on the spice meter (pro level spice meter lol). Very filling can share with two people comfortably.

Falafel and lamb plate
Marni M.

My friends and I shared a Falafel and lamb plate for $16 which we felt was fair for the price considering it was huge and heavy! The rice was perfectly seasoned and cooked. As a sucker for lamb I was not disappointed by the tenderness and flavor. In my opinion, the falafel was a little on the dry side but had a nice crispy outside. With most halal places, you can never go wrong with the creamy and spicy sauces drizzled over the top. Would come again to be greeted by their friendly staff!

Gyro and onion rings  Lamb & Chicken Gyro Onion Rings

1st time here, at the suggestion of my kids, after starting a new job a block away. Home run! Portions are huge. Gyro is so full of flavor and perfection. Onion ring order was also huge; crispy and delicious. Very impressed.

Mega Plate
Byanca Y.

I been coming here since high school I feel like it hasn't changed (only in price but what hasn't gone up). The portions are still huge, one regular plate I can eat it 2/3 times. This is my first time getting a mega plate and my bf and I split it, with leftovers!! It was almost $30 I believe but it comes with chicken, falafel, shrimp and lamb so with the variety + portion I think it's fairly priced. The baklava was light and crispy also, and not overly sweet.

The food truck
Pag M.

I been eating here for years. The best place to get some lamb and chicken over rice. The white sauce is incredible and they are very generous with it on the plate. I get the same plate every time and it comes out within 2 minutes it is very quick. Most popular food truck right by campus and a go to lunch spot for me. The price increase throughout the years is a lot but reasonable in this economy. Would recommend to anyone who visits Lowell.

The Lamb & Falafel Plate
Summer B.

I eat lunch every time I'm in Lowell. The portions are MASSIVE and the food is high quality. I usually get the spicy sauce on the side because it does stain fingers. Ordering at the grill instead of online is a little cheaper and they're very fast.

Where does the truck park and what are the hours?

272 riverside st Lowell MA 10am to 10 pm all week except Sunday close

Where can you park if you don't go to school at UML?

The truck is parked in a lot, there are a handful of spaces open. Gets a little crowded on Friday and Saturday but there's usually a place to park.

Unsurprisingly, they apparently got off to a farmer's market stall kind of a start before opening up this restaurant. They've done wonders with the historic building. Trying the titular koshary was an obvious choice. Theirs comes relatively unseasoned and with sauces on the site; I picked the medium spicy one and it was robust. Fried onions were ample, and between the chickpeas, lentils, rice, and pasta, you pretty much get everything. I added a couple of falafel which came with a green interior, an indication of freshness carrying the herbal taste into my meal. Ordering a tea got me a decent sized pot with a bit of fresh mint appropriate to the region. While the location isn't particularly central, business was strong, and I had little trouble seeing why. The warm greeting and warm cuisine are easy to say yes to.

Koshari (8/10): delicious and nutritious. Flavors were well balanced. I loved the fried onions!…read moreSpicy CKN sandwich (8/10): this was surprisingly delicious. The sauce was amazing!!

We got here early in the morning around opening time & it was pretty busy. Our server, Brooke, was an absolute gem! She was so kind & gave great recommendations on what to try. We ordered: Drinks-- - strawberry mango lassi - Rafiki's coconuts Food-- - the sultan (braised beef tenderloin with potatoes, poached egg, cheese, candied maple glazed bacon, + pickles w/ hollandaise sauce) - crispy panko crusted chicken + waffle (w/ candied bacon & honey sriracha maple syrup) - a side of corned beef hash Server was very nice! Food came out in a reasonable time. What I liked: The crispy panko crusted chicken & waffle was AMAZING! I normally don't even like chicken & waffles but this one was good. It came piping hot & was full of flavor. The honey sriracha maple syrup complemented this dish sooo well & loved the candied bacon. The corned beef hash was also delicious! We love corned beef hash & this was a different take from what we've had at other establishments but still, SO GOOD. I really loved the fried chickpeas here. We appreciated that there was all (mostly) meat than filler! Most places we've been to have given more potatoes than beef and this was not the case at Yaz's. The Sultan dish was one that was recommended by our server. GENEROUS portion size & beef was very tender. Great flavor. Strawberry mango lassi tasted refreshing! It was minty, slightly sweet from the wild flower honey, and you could taste the strawberries, mango, and hibiscus flavors. What I didn't like as much: The Sultan was great but I quickly realized that it didn't come out as hot in temp as the chicken & waffles & the corned beef hash. I'm a temperature girlie & like my food on the hotter side but the dish was warm at best. With that being said, the flavors & food still tasted good but I think I would've enjoyed it a teensy bit more if it was hotter. Rafiki's coconuts was the drink I personally got & it was okay but not that great. It was a more watery coffee, even with one shot of espresso (not that big of a glass). Coconut espresso flavors didn't come out as much as I would've liked/hoped for. Overall, we did really enjoy having breakfast at Yaz's Table. I'm not even a breakfast/brunch food type of gal but I liked the food here. I'll have to come back again to try a different coffee to confirm my thoughts but besides that, all the dishes were lovely & beautifully made. Parking: free parking lot

It's a middle eastern restaurant primarily serves shawarma and other middle eastern cuisines. It's located next to a college building. Parkings are street only. Once we parked on the street we walked over to the restaurant. Inside is spacious pretty clean and there are quite a bit of tables and chairs. We went up to the counter to place orders. I got mixed shawarma plate and baklava. I wanted to try their mango lassi but they were out. The shawarma plate came with choice of rice or mujadara which is a lentil mixed with other vegetables. I got rice with it and it comes with chicken and beef shawarma, rice, salad, pita bread, hummus, garlic sauce and baba ghanoush. The salad, rice, pita bread, and shawarma were ok. Shawarma may have been better if it was earlier during the day as they would be fresher. The stars of the show were the sauces. Hummus, baba ghanoush and garlic sauce were all excellent. Mixing the sauce elevated the shawarma to the next level. Baklava was delicious as well. Not too sweet and that nutty flavor comes out strong. Service was good and staffs were friendly. The dish came out within about 10 minutes or so Overall it's a pretty good shawarma spot. If i were to come back i would see if they would allow substitution with salad for more rice and sauces on top instead of side so that i can have more rice and meat. I've had better quality shawarma but sauces were excellent.
