Patricia: Everyone loves the chickpea fritter, but you can get falafel anywhere. Go for the egg & eggplant.
Amrit Plaha Chavada: Chickpea fritter sandwich, Japanese sweet potato sandwich and all the herbal teas! Coconut lentil soup is awesome. Plan an early lunch/dinner if you want to make it in time for the Pushpir sandwich!
Luke Bornheimer: Chickpea sandwich was delicious; Fritters are like lighter, more mild falafel and pickled veg adds a nice bite a refreshing (and decently portioned) meal. One sandwich is perfect for a filling lunch.

Boston.com: A tiny, mostly takeout soul food spot. Try the fried thigh plate, fried catfish plate, Grandma's mean meatloaf plate, mac and cheese, black-eyed peas, collard greens, and sweet potato pie. Read more.
Jason Tibbetts: Make this a weekly stop for fried catfish, fried chicken, mac+cheese or any of the other deliciousness on the menu!
Quincy Chang: Sure bets are the BBQ beef rib sandwich, anything with fried chicken, collard greens, mac and cheese, and the banana pudding. Don't go here on Sundays-- they're closed for church! Read more.

Meg B.: Mushrooom Chickpea burger (Kendall square) is damn good!!
BU Today: Veggie Galaxy has the feel of a classic diner minus well... the meat. Instead you'll find baked mac and cheese, mushroom chickpea burgers, and a club sandwich made with grilled tempeh bacon & tofu. Read more.
M3t47 G34r: Do not get the jackfruit sandwich unless you are actually vegetarian/like jackfruit's sourness. It doesn't compliment the BBQ well. On the plus side, the mushroom chickpea Burger is great!

Sethu Siva: Order a wide selection of Mezes: lamb chops, quail, chickpeas with vermicelli, etc.
Dan Roberts: The vegetarian tasting menu during the harvest season is delicious and an excellent deal. Go with a friend to try twice as many things ...
Boston Magazine: If it were up to us, we’d craft our entire meal here out of the first courses; they’re just that satisfying. Read more.
Jesse: The paparadelle with braised lamb, peas, and cheese is AMAZING, as is the "breaking bread" and the oil that comes with it.
Paul Nederhoed: The service was excellent! The drinks were too sweet and the flavors weren't amazing. The pizza and food tasted better than average. However, it just wasn't worth the price overall.
Adam Hertz: Try the Pea Tendrils, they're awesome!
Terence Michale: Off the menu Malaysian items is a must! Spicy Grilled Sting Ray, Kangkung belacan, red curry! You can request halal chicken for some items. Ask the owner.
Dorothy T.: Absolutely get a plate of the Peking ravioli! And the Peking duck. Yum!

Aaron Wheeler: The chickpea fritter sandwich is a delight! All dem pickled veggies on top...
Brianna: The Zucchini sandwich special right now is incredible!! I've gotten it twice this week so far. It's got fried tofu, zucchini slices, basil mayo, corn, and a sweet soy sauce. 10/10 would recommend
Margot Mazur: Cheap and delicious vegetarian and vegan food. The sandwiches are bomb in a pita.
