This place is genuinely amazing. I go fairly frequently and it's genuinely some of the best food in MA. The meat - literally whatever meat you choose is amazing. I've had lamb, chicken, and kofta and they've all been DELECTABLE. I absolutely love the salads and the portions are big enough to give me 2-3 meals out of 1 plate! The food is fresh and piping hot each time and the service is always so fast. It is definitely worth stopping to check out! read more

Sooo good, many halal places have dry falafel but theirs is just right. I highly recommend.

food is exceptional. We go out of our way to stop here. Make sure you order some of the extra white sauce with your meal. Portions are huge. read more

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. read more

I've had Yassa Grill a few times now, and I always get the lamb plate. I tried the lamb gyro, but it's not as good as the plate in my opinion. read more

I got my food pretty quickly and it was tasty. Lots of pictures too so you know exactly what you're getting.

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. read more

I forgot to take a picture of the food but it was so good and so filling. They filled that takeout box to the brim ! I couldn't even finish it with my coworker. The chicken and lamb paired with their white sauce and spicy sauce is just the right combination of savory, creamy, and spicy. Well worth the money spent! read more

My wife ordered us dinner from Yassa Grill just one time and I was hooked. The containers are always full to the brim with deliciousness. Ask for extra white sauce and you might not be able to see your food underneath. I've had the chicken and the lamb plates both with and without the falafels and I gotta say that the lamb plate was the best. Highly recommend Yassa Grill if you're in the mood for a great meal delivered quickly! read more

Food is always fresh and delicious! I have not had one bad dish from this amazing food truck!

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. read more

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! read more

Even better the second time around. They do a crazy amount of Doordash orders so you might be waiting a minute.

My review is solely based on just the food and quality because I myself did not went up to order. I got the lamb and chicken plate to go. The portion is huge, enough for 2 people. The lamb and chicken in the white sauce was the perfect combo and with a hint of hot sauce too? Cherry on top. I had leftovers the next day, even better! I can truly say this is one of those food you can't wait to eat it the day after. read more

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. read more

Really good. Lamb plate is tasty. The rice is excellent. Falafel were nice texture, not dry but a little light on flavor. read more

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. read more

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. read more

Yassa Grill - The Lamb & Falafel Plate - Food Trucks Near Me - Lowell, Massachusetts

I was a HUGE FAN of Egyptian Grill, we used to do take out once a month from here. It has been a disappointment for following reasons - 1. The prices have insanely increased - Its $17 per plate for chicken and falafel bowl, which is not justified for a food truck. In the end it is fast food, to go place. The prices are as much as a sit and dine restaurant. 2. They dont put enough sauce (red and white) and when you request for extra sauce, they charge you $1 per small sauce box. Ideally, it should be free but a dollar per sauce is too much 3. Lastly, the food quality has gone down. The last time we ordered, the food was undercooked and cold. To that, it became my LAST TIME of going to Egyptian Grill. I mean at least for college students on Lowell Univ campus, they should have been mindful of increases the prices. read more

Service was quick. Food was delicious. The menu outside had descriptions of what falafel and kafta are, which I really appreciated. The portion is two meals for a hungry person. Would visit again. read more

I think I've said how amazing this place is! I get it at least once a week! I've been to Greece and had gyros(a million years ago but who's counting) and it always reminds me of my first time having a gyro! It's amazing read more

Yassa Grill - Chicken & Falafel Plate - Food Trucks Near Me - Lowell, Massachusetts

The food is delicious and perfectly cooked. Our go to is the chicken plate with extra chicken and extra white sauce. The falafels are tasty and so are the desserts. I usually let them know in the special instructions how much we love their food. read more

Amazing food and friendly service! They're quick too - I usually park and order my food all in under 5 minutes :)

So, I have been to this place twice. The food is pretty tasty and reminds me a lot of The Halal Guys in NYC. They are also quite generous with their portions, so if you get a plate, it easily could be shared or divided into 2-3 meals. Unfortunately, I think the customer service is missing the mark here. I've interacted with employees who appear friendly and wanting to help; for me, the issue has been with (who I think is) the owner. The first time I wasn't sure if maybe it was aloofness or having a bad day, but the second visit confirmed a standoffish vibe--a feeling of somehow being inconvenienced by wanting to order from their food truck? Eh. It really put a damper on the visit. I also personally observed the treatment to be inconsistent with another patron, so it made me further wonder. So all in all: with so many local food options in town, I'll be exploring elsewhere. read more

Great food, shit service. Ordered extra pita on my $100 meal, +1.50 each, and I didn't get it in my delivery. I called to ask and they argued with me about it even though I have the receipt. Did not refund me. Shit service. read more

This unassuming food truck is some of the best food in Lowell hands down. It's modeled after your typical halal-cart style quick food - think Halal Guys but better. The portions are huge, and the rice plates come with a salad that adds a nice crunch to everything. Be sure to get extra spicy red sauce on the side, it has a wonderful kick to balance the richness of the white sauce. I've never had a bad meal here. 1000/10. read more

It was a throwaway sentence in another review I wrote that got me here, some poor imitation of an Asian restaurant in the distant exurbs of Lowell. In response, I received an indignant personal message that there was, indeed, food to be found in the mill towns between Boston and Manchester, and I should start at the Egyptian Grill. Well, Dirgni J., I listened, and you were right. This is one hell of a great find, and impossible if you don't have local insight. It's a couple of miles off I-495, tucked around a corner from sight of VFW Pkwy., just sitting in a nacelle by the campus of UMass-Lowell. I don't think it's ever moved from that spot, because it doesn't have to. It does a robust business serving quality Egyptian (Middle Eastern, in essence) food exactly as it is. Starting with the first mandatory star that Yelp requires: Second star: Value. You get a ton of food for a featherweight of money. This is built around the college budget. Third star: Quality. The flavors are authentic. The meat is all protein, no gristle. There is no skimping of any kind. Fourth star: Falafel. It's so good, it gets its own star. Having had some terrible falafel since, I miss Egyptian Grill all the more. Fifth star: Service. It's not the quickest, but it's not all that slow either. And they take credit. Dirgni J. also recommended Heng Lay to me. After the wondrousness of Egyptian Grill, I bet he's right. But it's going to be hard to eat somewhere besides this truck when I return to Lowell. read more

Thank you, Yelp reviewers, great call on this one. And thanks to Yelp, it was popped up when I went looking for another purpose. Solely take away. $20 for one order. Fed us greatly, for supper, enough for a second meal. By myself, it would've been 5 or 6 lunches for me. Usually a bad sign (oversized orders), but, this food was great. Lightly flavored rice, fresh mini salad beneath the pile, plenty of lamb and shrimp in our order. Best, remarkably, the shrimp was cooked perfectly. read more

Their plates are huge and the white sauce is on point. The lamb is easily my favorite.

Food was good! Would definitely recommend to anyone that's in the area!. Good healthy portions with amazing white sauce. We got the chicken and rice and lamb and chicken and just such juicy and nicely seasoned food! Service was good and quick how every food truck should be. Wouldn't say any ambiance giving its in a parking lot but can catch a unassuming lowell game while your eating it so if you like sports and food it's perfect! read more

I am telling you as if I were the person you trusted the most out of anyone in your entire life. This food is insanely good and you have to try this place. 10/10 every time. The onion rings and pita bread are really good too. Lastly, the spicy sauce is also something that needs to happen, I get extra on the side usually. Don't miss out on this place. read more

Delicious food, great customer service, fast and convenient. If I could I would live in the shed right next to them. I would wake and up walk right over to them an order a lamb, chicken and falafel plate with the side of hot sauce because trust me your insides would burn but I love eating spicy. The one thing I would change is the location because I wish they had a bigger parking space. I want to be able to sit down and eat my food because I can't wait to enjoy it. Anyways, thank youuu so much for the free rice pudding!!! Lots of love and I'll gladly come back and let you take my money. read more

I'm just gonna cut to the chase... If I were on death row, the Chicken and rice plate with extra white sauce/extra chicken would be my last meal. Period. read more

The amount of food they give here is insane. Usually good for 2 people and being extremely full. It is similar to Halal Guys, but extremely better. The white sauce is extremely cool and creamy and balances out their spicy red sauce perfectly. I am so glad my Ethiopian friend introduced me to this spot, since he attended college across the street. The plates are fairly cheap for the amount of food and flavour you get! read more

Highly recommend if you're craving middle eastern food! Huge portions, lots of flavor, fresh ingredients. I chose the light spicy option, and it is just enough to not be too much heat. Chicken is juicy, although I wish they put as much of it as they do the rice. Falafel is flavorful. I would ask for the white sauce on the side next time, because they load it on. Can't wait to come back here! read more

People have been raving to me about this place for so long and I just decided to try it today and now I'm disappointed that I didn't try it sooner!! I got the chicken rice plate and it was so much food and the flavors are AMAZING. It came out super fast but still hot and fresh & the price wasn't bad either- I think it was about $13-$14 for the whole thing which is definitely enough to feed two people, or have leftovers! Absolutely delicious. Also get the spicy sauce on it as well!!! Too good not to. I will be back for sure!! read more

Yassa Grill - Chicken rice plate! Delicious - Food Trucks Near Me - Lowell, Massachusetts

Very good. Friendly, speedy, and delicious. The plates are more than enough to share or have over multiple meals. The gyros are great and the bread is always very fresh. Get as much white sauce as you can (you seriously don't want to miss this) but you might want to consider getting the spicy sauce on the side. It's delicious but it's intense!!! read more

The lamb and Chicken Plate is awesome! My favorite. The portion is actually enough for two meals!

Great food when it's fresh I was getting it but I stopped cause I had a bad stomach after eating it must've been from sitting there & it's always room temperature read more
