Best Mediterranean food around Boston! The taste is authentic and amazing, just like homemade. Delicious kebab and gyro. The tzatziki is my favorite! The owner and the staff are all very welcoming and polite. My family and friends all love the place. We also did catering for a few office meetings and everybody was impressed with the food and service! Thank you Flame cafe, I will be definitely coming back! read more

Food is soo delicious here , I can have it every day for my lunch. My fave is chicken cabob, you can't go wrong with it. Also great to grab some early breakfast on your way to work. Place is cozy, and service is pleasant and fast. Couldn't recommend more, definitely the best and healthiest food in financial district read more

Try and get the $4.99 chicken kabob special if you can. Otherwise, I do not see the value as David A mentioned. Pro's: Very friendly service, tasty food, free chips, pressed (toasted) wraps. Con's: Value to portions ratio compared to competition. read more

So I have finally had the BEST GYRO I have ever had and it was from here! I have walked by this place dozens of times on my way from work. Today I decided I had to go in for lunch. Now I will be making this a once a week treat. Once you have this Gyro you will keep wanting more! Great Job. read more

Nothing bad to say about this place, the food was always exactly what I wanted, they had great deals and the staff was always friendly. The only problem is how tiny that place is. It gets pretty crowded around noon, but that's what happens to a good restaurant. read more

OK, I couldn't wait to get the opportunity to write something about my new favorite spot for a quick meal in the financial district! My first time here was about 1 month ago and I've been hooked from day one. Gyros, pitas, etc with lamb, pork or chicken,but I always go for the Promo plate. Oh and the dollar chicken kabobs-AWESOME! And the service?? Wowww, that's awesome as well. Once Mia and coworker (I forgot her name, sorry) see you a couple of times they remember what you like and how you like it! NICE! Esp when you are in the run like me. Do your stomach a favor and go check them out today! You won't regret it! By the way, I had been breakfast this morning and I'm going back for lunch :-) read more

I decided to check it out as the prices for some meals are affordable for the area. I decided for the chicken promo plate (less than $6.5). The service was friendly and speedy. It wasn't very busy at the time but it seemed a little frantic. The plate had rice, cabbage (?), tomatoes, onions, hot peppers, tzatziki and their chicken. The amount of food was fine but light on chicken - that might be the price factor. The chicken was great, just a tad dry. The rice was underwhelming and there was simply too much cabbage. Two slices of hot peppers were simply not enough but great tasting. For a couple extra bucks, I might try the gyro next time. read more

Delicious Lamb and Chicken Gyro. Excellent for quick lunch pickups around the financial district. Great food, excellent prices and good service. Any plans to add soup to menu... read more

I work in the Financial District and I have been searching for the best gyro within walking distance for some time now. Flame Cafe definitely has it. Most of my issues with the gyros I've eaten around my work is that they lack flavor- but the gyros at Flame cafe are always flavorful and filling. The sauces and pickles available on the side add a nice option for people who like a spicy lunch to wake them up during the work day. Great portions and friendly customer service. One word of warning-- if you go after 1:30 on a weekday, they can be out of the pork. Going to try breakfast next, as it always looks great. read more

Stopped in for a breakfast sandwich the other day. Sausage, egg and cheese is actually cut up hot dogs, egg and cheese. Grossest thing I've ever paid $5 for. read more

I recently used Flame Cafe as catering for an event for 30 people. The experience was excellent! David personally delivered the food and set up the buffet for the event. The food was excellent. Recommended! read more

Great food and service! I love their shawarma, very juicy and delicious! I am a picky eater and so far I love everything I have tried. The service is also on point! No matter how busy, they always give attention and take care of their customers. I never had a wrong order even when I ask them to customize my food! I ordered catering for a family event and we were all very satisfied! The food came on time and it was freshly cooked and warm. I strongly recommend to everybody in the area. You need to try this place. read more

Fantastic buffet lunch for an office event for 70 people. We ordered the "Mega Greek Package" and also added stuffed grape leaves to the order. Everything was delicious (especially the lamb kabobs and the grape leaves--also loved the yoghurt/cucumber sauce). Delivery was right on time and David set up the whole thing for me and included a description of the dish and indicating GF/V which was helpful for a large gathering. Highly recommend! read more

Flame Cafe is proof big things come in small packages. The store is only 8 x 8 but the line moves quickly, even at peak lunch. Delicious chicken or lamb wraps, and the grilled eggplant plate is perfect for days when you crave something healthy and different. Large portions and great value, there is always some sort of promotion going on ($5 chicken plate, $1 chicken kebabs, etc.). Highly recommend! read more

Just tried for the first time and LOVED it. The mixed plate with chicken was one of the best lunches I have had in the 6 years I have worked in the neighborhood! read more

I like the people behind the counter and want them to succeed, but can't deal with how crazy salty it was the 2 times I got chicken over a salad. read more

Simply put - this is the best lamb Gyro you will ever eat. Hands down. Go. Now!

I was excited to try this place, but left dissapointed by the experience. I came in looking for some suggestions on what to try (plate vs wrap) and let them know it was my first time there, but felt pretty unwelcomed. The service is hit/miss as the customer after me was informed that a side and chips were included with all orders, but I wasn't. If they hadn't come in, I would have left without it. And there isn't much of a space to wait for your food, so you're literally dodging people as they go in/out. What's more, for 8.49 for the chicken kebab wrap, there is very little chicken in it. Zo is still my go to for gyros for friendly staff, much fresher ingredients, and more generous sized chicken!! read more

Very nice chicken wings and gravo the food was really well cooked. The place is very full at lunch tie but the wait was about 5 mins.

Great food, quick service, relatively cheap, good size pita wraps. Definetly worth the money. Napoleon cake and Pahlava are delicious. Recommend to everyone! read more

I was loyal to Sandella's when it was here, but decided to give this a try since they have lavash wraps (low calories/carbs!) The chicken is consistently tender & juicy and well seasoned. I like the Tahini. I've been coming here for a few weeks now and can see that they are making improvements. They must have also read Dave's review, because the wraps are larger now and they just started offering free bags of chips, a nice bonus even though I personally thought $8 was fine for an enormous sandwich. There is never a line and they make it in less than two minutes, so it's great for a quick trip - I used to always go to Pret for that but I was paying the same price for a sandwich with literally like a fifth of the meat (Subway-style), so stopped going there for sandwiches in favor of Flame. Sure, some of their offerings are quirky (does anyone eat those giant pieces of Baklava in the middle of the day?) and they definitely need to add more entrees to the menu, but it's a small family business which makes it more appealing, because who doesn't want to support small businesses? Give it a try - they also have 10% off coupons (inside or if there's a guy out front) to attract new customers. read more

Gyros are very good, especially loved the lavash ones. Napoleon is to die for ! Reasonable prices. 20 minutes walk from my office , but that's a small price to pay. read more

Great gyro. There was so much on it and the flavors all melded together for a great taste. A great lunch for a chilly afternoon. I hope it had a spot to stay and eat in. Alas, it is take out. read more

We ordered Flame Cafe for the first time last week. We had a large group of people coming in for a meeting, and I just didn't want to get the usual stuff we get OR take individual orders (someone is always unhappy with something). I did some searching, and found Flame Cafe. We ordered the chicken kabob lunch station, and it was amazing! There was a tray of chicken, a tray of rice, a tray of greek salad, and a tray of warm pitas. They even provided a bowl of Tzatziki sauce, a BOTTLE of their greek dressing, and a BOTTLE of their hot sauce. It was nice to have those for serving. It was delivered on time, and they sent me two boxes of Ferrero Rocher chocolates! So nice and appreciated. The only thing that was wrong with our order was that we ordered for 20 people, but they charged me for 25 people (indicated on my receipt). We're a non-profit so typically I would complain, but really this was all perfect beyond that and I didn't want to complain, especially since we had lunch the rest of the week. read more

I absolutely adore this place. I literally come here at least once a week for their promo plates. It's $6/7 for a ton of rice, pork/chicken/lamb, lettuce, tomatoes, Tzatziki sauce. The meat is tender and perfectly spiced. They're quick despite the crowd at the lunch hour. Best lunch spot in the financial district! read more

Definitely the best place for authentic traditional Armenian and Mediterranean cuisine in the area! Fresh, delicious, fast, super nice people. Highly recommended to all folks ... who eat food :) Bon Appetit! read more

I read few negative reviews and decided to update my review. I am very surprised by those comments about too much salt or poor presentation... Are we talking about the same place?! I eat in this cafe often and have never seen anything wrong. They offer great food and the best pricing in neighborhood. I come there with a lot of friends and everyone of them is delighted with the food. The owners always nice, greet you, remember you and your preferences. And if you are regular there as I am, you can tell that there is a lot of people coming back to this place on regular basis! I guess you guys either not for this type of food or simply choose something not matching your taste. If you ever come back here again, my advice to you is to try the lamb plate. It is the best thing I ever had: delicious, flavorful and nicely filling. The plate conveniently comes in two sizes depending on your appetite, but its absolutely astonishing and "must try" thing. Good luck to the owners of Flame Cafe. Finally someone was able to turn this place to a nice place where you want to return over and over. Thanks! read more

I would give 3.5 Stars if I could! The staff was LOVELY, so kind and helpful. I came at 1:30, which was after lunch rush, but not so late that I thought they would be closing up already(close is at 3). Unfortunately they didn't have enough Pork Gyro left to make me a Pita Wrap, so they did 50/50 Pork/Chicken, which was still good, just not exactly what I wanted. It was flavorful, with lots of lettuce, tomato, onion and cilantro. I will probably give them another try read more

omg the lavash wraps are where its at, best lunch option in the financial district - I may be addicted

Nice people and great food reasonably priced; I eat the Lamb Promo plate two days out of three when I'm in Boston! Was introduced to it by my colleagues at work and now,rarely go anywhere else for a quick lunch. Baklava good, too! read more

I bought a deal from online and decided to test out this place. The man behind the register is pleasant and friendly. The food itself is good. I tried (pork, chicken, and lamb gyros) and all three time it was good. Be sure to get complimentary chips they put on the counter. read more

I had the chicken Gyro plate (special for 4.95) and it was amazing! Just the right amount of food and their salad/sauce was amazing! I can't believe I didn't know of this place before! read more

Delicious Fresh Food, great prices, amazing staff. More flavor, bigger portions, and lower prices than Zo.

Great catering. Delicious food and beautiful presentation. The eggplant dish is incredible, best I have ever tried and I am a true eggplant lover :) Thank you David. read more

Fantastic food. Work around the corner and always love to stop in and grab a great lunch!

Cozy little hole in the wall with friendly people and the best breakfast in the area. I highly recommend the morning wrap with basturma. What's basturma you ask? The most delicious addition to a savory breakfast you've ever had. You'll have a hard time going back to any old breakfast sandwich after this one. read more

The nicest people work here and the food is delicious! I like the breakfast wrap. The traditional meats are also very tasty. The dishes with no meat are also very flavorful. read more

I tried Flame Cafe at a work event which was organized by a colleague. The food was excellent! Everything from the pita and tziki sauce to the lamb and veggies was delicious. Friendly service as well. I would definitely recommend this place. read more

Absolutely delicious and massive. I prefer Flame Cafe to Zo. It was my first time here but I will certainly be coming back.

If you are looking for authentic, home made, feel good Greek Cuisine then this is the place to be in Boston. The Lamb Gyro is awesome, with the perfect mix of flavor and sauce. Complementary chips come with every order and great portion sizes. Customer service is top notch and they are up to date with technology offering a variety of payment options. This place is a hidden gem and will gain popularity in no time! read more
