Gift Tips
- Try the lamb shawarma plate or kafta kabob plate if you want a hearty, shareable meal — portions are large and often enough for two.
- Order the falafel plate or falafel sandwich for a fresh vegetarian option; reviewers note the falafel is flavorful and well-presented.
- Save room for honey walnut baklava or walnut baklava as a not-too-sweet dessert finish.
- Ask for the ‘Huskies’ meal deal if available for a good value — it’s a popular option for students and locals.
- Enjoy the quick service and consider takeout after a show at Symphony Hall or a visit to the nearby MFA for a convenient meal on the go.
