"very good. the soloro/sorrel drink was absolutely delicious. the one downside is that it's such a tiny serving. id be surprised if it was even 7 or 8 oz. the food was spectacular. just the right amount of spice."
"I ordered the Fufu & Soup (peanut butter soup and chicken) and the soup was very flavorful, but I got two small pieces of chicken that had very little meat. It didn't feel worth the price, especially given I've paid the same price for stews that came with 2-3 chicken legs."

"This food was so good. My husband usually does all the cooking but he is out of town so I decided to order from this restaurant. They exceeded all my expectations. The Jollof was sooo good with a little kick of spice and the chicken was seasoned to perfection. The dodo added the hint of sweetness I was looking for and I absolutely loved the meal. Definitely will be ordering from here again! "
"The portions were great but there was only one chunk of meat that wasn't very big and the other piece of meat of 98% fat, which was sad. The fufu was yummy but I was surprised at the very little amount of seasoning in the Egusi. I got a mild version but I took that to mean spicy-type level, though perhaps it referred to how many spices were used to flavor the food. Overall good but I don't think I would get it again."

"I love their oxtails."

"Highly recommend. I eat there very often, and it's definitely one of my favorite chicken spots in boston! (Try the "all dark"). Their Jalapeño poppers and peri fries are awesome as well. I have a high spice tolerance and can say their hot/extra hot satisfies my cravings for a spicy meal."
"I finally got to taste food that reminds me of home. It brought back memories, with flavors similar to Nandos South Africa. The chicken is tender and clearly good quality, you can tell from the taste. The lemon & herb and peri-peri flavors are some of my favorites, and they were done perfectly here. So glad to have found this in the U.S., and even happier that it’s halal."

"Really well flavored, fresh, authentic dishes - awesome grilled meats! Good portion for the price. Lamb losh kebab and chicken sharwarma both AMAZING - it's hard to find 'lamb only' kebabs of great quality.....this place is a gem. Packaged with care for take out (door dash). Falafel was well flavored too, though I prefer the version where there's baking soda added to make it fluffier. Definitely will be ordering more from Jana Grill!"

"Finally a restaurant where you get the best chicken biryani in this area (Malden, Chelsea and Everett). The veg samosa was tasty as well. As an Indian reviewing it, this place should definitely be in your next order list. Gulab Jamun / Piece - big portion and no overpowering sugar taste. Good!"
"The Chicken Dum Biryani was wet and and oily, the chicken quality can be drastically improved - it has the "heek". Plain Polao is great consistency and clean rice. Would improve the portion size on it a bit. Chicken Tandoori Each and Chicken Roast are great! So is the Paratha / Chapati. "

"The empanadas are undercooked. The Stewed Beef - Carne de Res Guisada was nice and soft but they only give you 2 pieces.. ridiculous. The Friend Chicken Strips - PECHURINAS we under cooked. I ordered a medium and received 5 small chicken strips. If you would even consider that a strip. Over priced. Quality is mids. They sent the wrong beans Will not be ordering again. "

"Chickpea Fritter Sandwich Raspberry Crunch Taza Chocolate again wrong chocolate bar but I'm ok with it. I'm continuously pleased with the food! having vegan takeout options near work makes me sooooo happy 😊"
"The Chickpea Fritter Sandwich... sooo good. The quality and consistency of the food here is unmatched for a healthy and fast meal. The tostones are also really good, but the chipotle mayo could use a hint of sweet. Otherwise. So, so good and reliable."
Chickpea Fritter Sandwich
Our very first sandwich—established in 2008—has become a Boston classic, often landing on lists alongside lobster rolls and clam chowder. It’s a reflection of everything we care about: simple ingredients, bold flavors, and food made with love. We start with our own pita bread, baked fresh at our Commissary kitchen. Inside, you’ll find silky hummus made from organic chickpeas grown in Connecticut, crispy falafel balls that are soft on the inside and packed with toasted spices and fresh herbs, a cucumber-tomato salad we chop fresh each morning, bright pickled veggies for a tangy crunch, and a drizzle of tahini sauce to tie it all together. It’s the sandwich that started it all—and still one of our favorites.

Chickpea Fritter Platter

A cult favorite that helped put us on the map.

Mediterranean Bowl
Meet the Mediterranean Bowl - (Version 2 thanks to feedback from all of you!) a rainbow ?? of spreads, salads, falafel, and sauces, with a variety of vegetables and tons of protein in every order. We've been inspired by Middle Eastern recipes using Western Mass ingredients. We start with a layer of our silky hummus so you get a little bit in every bite. Then we add two beautiful salads: a hearty Farro Lemon Dill and a Chickpea Eggplant Pepper salad made with organic chickpeas from Connecticut. For some light brightness we add a Cucumber Tomato Salad (use the lemon wedge to squeeze a little fresh juice on top) and bright magenta Pickled Cabbage. Of course we can't skip our Falafel balls, fried to order, crispy/craggy on the outside, and bright green inside from fresh cilantro and parsley we fold into the batter. Then drizzle everything with a beautiful herby green tahini.

"Truly delicious and fresh food! The consistency each time I order is on point and the authentic ingredients make it a fabulous Thai experience. I loved the Scallion Pancake (8) and the Tom Yum Tom Yum Soup as well as some of the absolute best Thai Iced Tea around! The people are kind and the prices are reasonable. If you like Thai food or want to try it, look no further!"
"Our go-to for Thai food. Sometimes it can be quite inconsistent but we find it to be the best in the area that delivers to us. The pad Thai is either very bland or very flavorful - it's a toss up but nonetheless we continue to gamble. We have also had a few instances with missing items from our order (not just with delivery but pickup as well) over the years. The Spicy Hot Basil is great but the portion could be better. Not much chicken compared to the veggies. The spring Crispy Roll (4) isnt the best bang for your buck, but theyre good. Same with the Gyoza (6). "

"Got the Create Your Own Stir-Fry with chicken and tofu because I couldn't make up my mind, mushrooms, snow peas, carrots, spinach, broccoli, spicy garlic sauce and Side of Red Coconut Curry Sauce because they both sounded really good, and they were. Big portion, plenty of noodles along with the other ingredients - the container was packed to the brim, and very fresh. It was definitely good enough to be a go-to takeout spot."
"Ordered the SAME EXACT thing last night as far as my stir fry, and received one box (if you order from them then you know what the box looks like)with my 'order' in it. Today they gave me 2 boxes. The other box had the over flow(which would be natural with what I ordered). Whoever made my order and gave me my moneys worth....I appreciate you."
