Greek Restaurant · 10 tips and reviews
Irina: Great concept of customised pita.🥙 Lamb was delicious. Free lemons for your water - really nice touch 🍋
Chris Ord: Legit try to approximate Greek food but definitely needs improvement. Tortilla needs to be replaced by original pita. Some work needs to be done also on the taste. Get inspired by Greek gyros places.
Gio Pan: More of a Greek twist on the casual sandwich place than a Greek place but an imaginative one and quite good. Place is cozy too. Their version of pitta replaces the traditional one quite nicely.
The Wall Street Journal: I'lI go for the Turkish breakfast, and at lunch, for lamb shawarma, beet tzatziki and the homemade hummus and pita. I can never resist leaving without a few sweets. Read more.
Reagan Barbosa: We really enjoyed the sausage pita, and every dessert we had was fabulous: chocolate chunk cookie, pumpkin turnover, and fig baklava.
Rich Acosta: It's worth completely leaving your comfort zone here, everything is great. If you're less adventurous start with warm buttered humus or shakshuka for breakfast. Moroccan donuts are NOT to be missed.

Margot Mazur: Cheap and delicious vegetarian and vegan food. The sandwiches are bomb in a pita.
Irina: Hummus side (~3.5$) + warm pita bread (~1.3$) = YUM 😋
Xavier du Maine: I love the rotating mushroom sandwiches, the overnight oats, and the friendly staff. Also, Clover HFI is open 24 hrs a day to satisfy your late night cravings or if you need a place to study late.

Lillian Pham: Falafel pita wrap is amazing!
Chris Patti: If you're paleo, low FODMAP, or just carb averse, this is a great option. Get the schwarma plate with no rice, you get to pick an extra side. This is my go-to lunch spot.
N: The best shawarma in town! A MUST !! Chicken shawarma with pickles, garlic, onions, lettuce and fries 👅 craving it already !

Mediterranean Restaurant · Inman Square · 129 tips and reviews
Noelle O'Brien: The falafel is so deliciously delicate. The fatteh was a perfect suggestion from the server. Get the pita with the red pepper spread. If you can, get seated in the back room - super cozy and warm.
skyle: Lovely spot in summer in the garden or in fall/winter in the lounge area which is cozy. The food is delightful but save room for the fabulous baked Alaska with perfectly burnished peaks of meringue.
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.

Pizzeria · Mid-Cambridge · 10 tips and reviews
Adam Krapish: Get the grilled chicken salad. It comes with oven fresh pita and is probably the best deal in Cambridge.
Dan V: Serious cheese fries and great, big, and cheap slices. To avoid throngs of high-schoolers, don't come at lunchtime or right after school lets out. And give Lou a tip, he deserves it!
Joe Diaz: $5.50 for a bottle of water and two slices of pizza that are bigger than your face.
Mìchæl ßowen: Excellent food, excellent prices, excellent service. 10/10! Try the BBQ steak and steak and cheese.
Nick Mudry: Great spot for just about anything. Burgers, grinders, whatever! Also super friendly staff!
Robyn Bahr: Best cajun fries in the city. The man behind the counter gave me a free sample of the cheese fries when I said how good they smelled! Great service - just won my life long loyalty.

Cheese Store · West Cambridge · 36 tips and reviews
Michael Sattler: Absolutely my favorite place in Cambridge. Try *any* of their in-house sandwiches (trust them-they butcher their own meat) and you won't be disappointed. Cheese samples, happy staff-what's not to love
Jessica Allan Schmidt: Visit their cheese cave. It's totally worth it. Read more.
Tara Spitzen: Best coffee in the neighborhood. Wonderful place to buy a treat for a friend-perhaps a bottle of rosé or beautifully packaged jams and chocolates. The cheese, of course, is exemplary. Try the comte!
Hiroki Murakami: Best breakfast/lunch spot in Central Square. Really cheap and quality food plus it's family owned. Open until 5 PM and cash only.
Alexandra Hodgman: SUCH good omelets! Very healthy with interesting flavors!
Jake Smith: They grill their breakfast sandwiches on the flat grill, giving it a grilled-cheese-esque flavor and consistency. All this really means is that the sausage, egg, and cheese is magic.
