There are two ways to order: at the kiosk or at the counter. The food is delicious! Tea is free!! And the breads are all fresh baked!! This place is usually packed. And the falafel bowl is my favorite. It's almost two meals, generous portions and everything is fresh. read more

I like this place. Not the cheapest lunch, but you get a lot of food. I had the wrap with the beef and tzatziki sauce. It came with a salad and some bread and hummus. All very good. If you dine in they bring it to your table. This is a very authentic greek /turkish restaurant. read more

We stopped for lunch, the food and the service were good. All was good till we got home and looked at the receipt. When we finished eating, we left a $10 tip for the waitresses. When we later looked at the receipt, we saw a line-item stating, 'Dine in Gratuity 18% $7.94'. meaning I just left a $17.94 tip. There was no warning that tips were included in the purchase and why would one look for that (I will now). We feel ripped off and will not be back, WATCH YOUR CHECK! read more

I am fan of this restaurant and we visit it often. Whenever we crave kebabs, this is where we go. The sides that come with every meal are also great! The bread is fluffy and the hummus is lovely. The ambiance and service are good too. The place is always packed when we visit. We recently tried their lamb chops and grilled salmon. Both were well seasoned, perfectly grilled and the meat was juicy on the inside. They let you substitute the side that comes with the meal with grilled vegetables, which I like, at no extra cost. If you like a good kebab, this is the place to go. They have other items on the menu that look delicious too. You should give this place a try. read more

Came here for an early dinner on a very rainy day, One reviewer was right - the inside looks like a large Mediterranean-style quick service Subway (the way they used to look). I loved the chandeliers and decor - very inviting. I've only had Turkish food a handful of times, so I went with a few favorites. My son ordered a beef doner pita wrap, and I had grape leaves, babaganouch, and a small serving of lamacun (Turkish "pizza"). We paid for our order at the kiosk and sat at a comfy booth. Turns out, we completely over ordered - not a bad thing. The waiter brought out complimentary hummus and homemade sesame-adorned pita. So delicious! Yummy grape leaves too - they give a generous portion. The babaganouch was the absolute best I've ever had - smokey and creamy - just fantastic. My son enjoyed his doner wrap and the lamacun was huge for a "small" serving. I wrapped up half of it plus some grape leaves for leftovers. The staff was very friendly as well and checked in with us a few times. You can help yourself to their tea station and try some Turkish tea - my first time enjoying this - it's fragrant and comforting. I wish we had Boston Kebab back in NY! Our local Turkish restaurant is good, but it's a bit too fancy (and $$$) to visit often, unfortunately. I absolutely love this set-up here. Very no frills, bells or whistles - you just get right to enjoying the food. If BK was close to me, I'd be here all the time! Also - not to be missed: Their display case of delicious homemade pastries! Save room for at least one! You'll need several trips to try them all! We got a tiramisu square and a kadaifi to go - so yummy! We'll probably head back here to grab dessert before our trip home! read more

Boston Kebab is worth a long drive, a long line, the bustling full parking lot. It is worth it despite all of those things. Recently we got the 4 item daily special plate. It came with a show cooked beef, beef stew, spicy lamb and teriyaki chicken. Also bread with yogurt and a small salad. I did not think to take a picture because we were so excited to eat the food. And it was fantastic. Absolutely fantastic. They also have a full regular menu, a giant dessert case and ice cream. And complimentary Turkish tea at the water station!!! The restaurant is very pretty and nice. It is counter service, but they will bring your meal to your seat. The one uncomfortable thing is the hustle and bustle in the front of the dining room, so we chose a table and figured out what we wanted there before going to the counter. They do have order kiosks, but neither of them were working when we were there last. I cannot wait until we can go again. read more

We were excited to try this spot. Sadly, between the general chaos of the restaurant and the fact that the food was mediocre, I don't think I would necessarily recommend it. read more

I have driven by this spot 1000 times and wanted healthier, more dinner style takeout. Delicious! I ordered the lamb kebab, the chicken patties and the salmon all over salad -- for three of us-- plus spinach pie, baba ghanoush and grape leaves. I loved my food. I can only eat fresh hummus. I hate the store stuff--this was so good. They included 4 pitas. The lamb was tough but the rest was really great. They packaged the takeout so thoughtfully. read more

Came here for a quick lunch with my family on a Saturday, I think they newly renovated the interior so it's super bright and clean. There are a ton of delicious options, and free hot tea available! They had a bunch of kiosks available to order with, but we ordered with the person and they helped us pick some delicious dishes. Everything came out really quickly to our table. I love a good quick service restaurant and this really hit the spot! read more

I have been there many times for dinner. It's always a welcoming restaurant, with employees who greet you warmly, are very respectful and provide terrific service. I have been satisfied with the dishes that I have tried there. read more

This place is my go to for Mediterranean food in the Waltham area. The place is always hopping. I'm here at dinner time and.many tables are full as is the parking lot. Twenty minute wait so maybe I'lll call ahead next time. I'm sure my chicken shish over salad will hit the spot!!! read more

I consider hummus a good litmus test for any middle eastern restaurant. Not only was their hummus on par, but the freshly baked pita was a special treat. And did I mention it was complimentary? They also offer a free tea bar. Two in our party had the doner kabob salad. Excellent! I had the steak kabob. It was tasty, but the meat was chewy. The baklava was very good. You know how sometimes places get lazy with their layering and there's a while big layer of nuts in the middle of a "bun" of phyllo? Well, here they do it right with many alternating layers of nuts and phyllo. My daughter brought us here (we are visiting from Dallas); it is her and her husband's favorite kid-free rendezvous on school days. read more

Boston Kebab - Waltham - Greek Near Me - Waltham, Massachusetts

The food is great. I want to go back soon and try the rest of the menu. The service is great, and very friendly. I want to try all the pastries. One issue: the outside, including the parking lot and area near the rail trail, are filled with garbage. They may not own all that, but it looks bad. read more

Portions are huge and delicious. I've got a lahmacun as an app, and the doner platter. You can see the freshly made doner in the background, all made with meat and no ground beef fillers. It was clearly marinated well in advance. One of the most delicious doners i've ever had. They bring out a generous portion of mezes and flatbread, on the house. Hot tea is also on the house, you just grab it fountain style. My only request: please do not use iceberg lettuce for the "greens" that comes with lahmacun, and mix onions + fresh parsley. An extra few lemon wedges would also be appreciated. They have outdoor seating as well as indoor. Staff is friendly, and genuinely nice. Place is clean. It's not close to me, but we will definitely be back, many times! This restaurant is apparently owned by the same person who was running the Boston Kebab House in Boston, near Post Office Sq. I used to go there a lot when I worked in Downtown Boston, and they closed around the pandemic. They used to have lines out the door because they had the best salad bar in the city and their kebabs were amazing too. This place is no different. read more

Was looking forward to trying. Unfortunately, the food was only mediocre. I liked how the chicken & lamb was cooked to a perfect medium rare, but it was practically unseasoned. Ordered with roasted vegetables which looked nice, but seemed 'heirloom' type and were hard to chew, slightly bitter, and also too little seasoning. I did enjoy the side salad & the homemade tzatziki sauce which paired well with the lamb. I enjoyed the fresh baked pita bread. This establishment is somewhat overpriced, and has a 'sub shop' feel. The staff was a bit confused, but friendly. read more

Impressive lunch. The portions are large with fresh baked pita, hummus, salad, etc. Hard not to give this place a great review- the service was excellent too. read more

Very good place, with a large amount of choices. Stopped here for lunch for the first time. Can't wait to come back and try more.

Just ordered today but I had to come write a five star review because the food was awesome! The only thing I got was the 4 specials with salad and rice for $21 and it was amazing! The portion size was generous, good enough to feed 2 people. The specials differ by day but today I selected the -roasted eggplant with beef (awesome) - chicken kofte with potato (tender potatoes and great seasoning) -some sort of tender beef (excellent and amazing!) -beef stew (this was my least favorite but still very good) -brown rice: seasoned very well and delicious The side salad was lightly seasoned with olive oil and lemon. Service was good and the restaurant was packed with people so you know it's good! This food makes me want to move to Boston! read more

This is one of my favorite kebab place in Massachusetts. I often order chicken doner over salad. The shredded chicken is delicious and the salad is fresh. Their hummus and pita are super delicious too. The service is always nice and friendly. read more

Love the outdoor seatings here. The food is good overall, I'm sorry I'm very picky about Turkish food especially after my trips to western Istanbul. The people are alright here. Tea is complimentary which is nice. They have guidelines how to make your tea. I would not get any baklava here. We tried all types. Having said that, definitely get KUNAFAH! It takes 10-15 min to prepare but I would get back for it. read more

We eat here whenever we visit the Boston area. The food is amazing! Turkish food, delightfully prepared. The service is remarkably quick, and the staff are very friendly. What are you waiting for? Time to eat! read more

Food is delicious, owners are lovely down to earth people. Have many options to choose from, like stews to kebabs, to sandwiches. Excellent choice for parties for catering to a simple dinner/lunch with family. read more

I ordered takeout from Boston Kebab and was mixed about it. The chicken kofta was ok-my daughter wasn't crazy about the texture while liking the flavor. The salad under the chicken itself became soggy and had to be discarded. The side of rice was fine. The moussaka was fair. The salads did not come with any dressing which was odd. I used some of the moussaka sauce as dressing and it was fine. For takeout ordered through their website, there is a convenience fee, which I find annoying. The pastries and daily specials looked delicious. If I decide to return, perhaps I'll try those. I'm not going to go out of my way to come here though. The service and ambiance for those eating in the restaurant seemed pleasant. read more

Flavorless and poorly presented food. Not at all authentic. More of a takeout. Service is quick but food did not live up to the Mediterranean/afghani flavors. So sad. read more

We ordered several dishes on Wednesday July 9 2025 to go. There were problems with several. The Beef kabobs were tough. The Spinach Pie Entree was pictured with a feta salad. There was no feta salad and the spinach pie was completely inedible. There phyllo dough soggy beyond redemption and the spinach terrifically under seasoned.I had to scrape the phyllo dough off the spinach and season with salt and pepper to eat it. Honestly not worth the money. read more

Food is good but high price point for what you get. Ordered take out and it took quite some time- about 30-40 mins.

Very clean, ample seating and parking, good service, reasonable prices, complimentary tea, bread, hummus and water with sit-down orders. Food is decent too. I would not say amazing because the meat chunks were very big on the kebab skewers so it was difficult for us to eat without cutting and the knives provided were butter knives. I suggest they carry steak knives. read more

Very good food. The 2 stars is because i was told the bulgar pilaf was yellow rice by the woman behind the counter. I'm on a strict gluten free diet and thinking it was rice and not wheat, I ate it. I've been suffering the consequences for a few days. Please provide accurate descriptions of your food so people who have allergies know what they can eat. read more

Food was delicious! My husband will actually eat hummus from there which is amazing. My husband and son enjoy the lamb kebabs. And the pita bread is fresh and so soft! We tried their Pide, moussaka, chicken kofte, beef kebabs and salmon kebabs. Nothing we haven't liked. read more

Love this unassuming Turkish restaurant slightly away from Waltham's food scene on Moody St. I drove by here accidentally due to street construction. Decided to stop in. I have been here twice so far in the last few months. I had their lamb kabobs the first time. It was delicious. Plentiful. I love the "free" hummus as a starter. For the second time, I had a beef stew. Candidly, I didn't like it as much. Too chewy and slightly greasy for me. Nonetheless, this is a must visit place because you get pretty authentic food. read more

Unbelievable! I NEED to come here many times to try EVERYTHING! It was very crowded due to Ramadan, but it felt like a party atmosphere, and everyone was in a good mood. Event though it was crowded, the staff was efficient and doing their best. We had tzatziki to start, served with pita, and a bowl of red lentil soup. Then I had the vegetarian bowl, which came with greens, salads, hummus, grape leaves, and falafel. It was so excellent. My dinner partner had a tandoori chicken kebab bowl. We watched platers after platers of food go by, and everything looked and smelled amazing. It was so much food, we couldn't finish and ended taking some home for tomorrow. The most disappointing part is that I didn't have any room left for dessert. If I didn't already have plans, I would go back and try another meal tomorrow. And the next day and the next. I just can't say enough good things. Thank you Boston Kebab! read more

Huge platters, authentically ethnic and a real value add to the community. Replaced the old Demos and is a solid step up, great service and when you walk in everyone knows each other. I believe it's predominately Turkish but not entirely sure. Either way, massive portions that are reasonably priced with good variety and solid flavors. read more

All in all, great spot. - Parking: easy, there is a lot that has plenty of parking available. - Ambiance/Service: clean enough. There is a self-serve Turkish tea which is delicious. The food took more time than expected (~25 minutes for 2 plates). Very friendly service. - Food: delicious. Would definitely come back. Recommend trying some of the desserts (pistachio baklava and kadaifi were good. Chocolate cake was a little dry) read more

Update: have been back here a few times since and upgraded the review from 4 to 5 stars. So many excellent options on the menu, the service is fast and the wait staff is attentive even though it is always very packed in the evenings. Definitely would recommend! read more

This was absolutely an amazing experience and the food reminds me of my childhood!!! This is hard to accomplish these days too. The service was extremely helpful and able to answer all questions. The ambiance is nice and clean and crisp. It was nice to walk in for the first time ever to see how much nicer it is than the prior ownership had for this location (another business). Thank you for such an amazing experience and wonderful food. read more

Good food served by friendly people! Everyone welcoming and helpful. Great for families.

We ordered the Manti and the gyro sandwich as well as the meze plate. The meze plate was actually pretty good. Came with a delicious bread as well as hummus and 2 yogurt- like appetizer and eggplant kinda like sauce. They also brought a small salad with it even though on the menu it says for one person it was pretty filling for two people. I would give it an eight out of 10. The sandwich had four layers of kebab in it and came with fries, which was pretty delicious, but there was nothing else in the sandwich, which was disappointing The Manti however, was really not good. It was kinda like beef dumplings, but they had put a lot of yogurt sauce on it and the fact that yogurt was very cold kinda like ruined the whole thing so it was so not delicious. Also, when you wanna order or even when you wanna get a box, you have to go to the cashier yourself, which was a little bit inconvenient. One of the good things was that you can get tea for free in their beautiful glass cups, which was pretty good (Sorry for any dictation or grammar problem Siri typed the whole thing .) Overall, I would probably not go there again since so many better Turkish restaurants in Boston . read more

A friend of mine asked me to lunch and wanted to go the Boston Kebab. I have been a few times before but only for takeout. From the last time I went the menu has seen a complete overhaul. The place was very clean and the open kitchen allows you views of the staff preparing your meal. The meal comes with hummus and cooked pita. I am not a huge hummus fan, but this stuff was amazing. I would come back just to eat the hummus. The menu board had pictures of many of the dishes and one looked like pizza, so I had to try it. The crust was great, the cheese was fine but the chopped beef wasn't for me. The chicken shish sandwich was really good. The house sauce that comes on the said made it even better. They should sell the sauce by the gallon. It was tough to eat because I unwrapped it to try and get a good picture. The fries were ok, need to order them well done. All in all it was a good experience and they have definitely upgraded the menu since they first opened. Can't wait to go back and try some of the other dishes. read more
