Huge swing and a Miss here. Ordered two Mediterranean bowls off the website ordering system, neither of which were even close to what we ordered, missing more than half the ingredients we ordered, seems like the cooks just threw in whatever they were feeling. The lamb was under cooked and very fatty and the falafel had so much parsley you couldn't taste any other ingredient. Won't be going back. read more

Everything I've ordered here has been great. It feels a bit pricey to me, like a dollar or two high, but the food is fresh and the quality is prime so the added cost makes sense for the quality. The homemade soups blew my mind, as have the lamb gyros, the yogurt parfaits, and the homemade chips tossed in with a gyro order. Adding those little things makes a difference. Give this place a good solid go of it! Even if one item leaves you slightly disappointed, there will be others that absolutely don't. read more

I'm looking at Lia G's review from October 25th, and it's tough to improve on it. I had an excellent (as compared to the price) Mediterranean salad, which I ate outdoors on their "patio." They slice the meat right off the spit, and you can often smell the aroma on Lincoln and even Walnut Streets. read more

You know it has to be great to get these ratings in Newton. The food is fresh and delicious with generous portions. From the pita to the salad to the kebab everything was perfectly spiced and cooked just right. Nothing was too heavy or rich but pleasantly filling. Highly recommend for yummy takeout. read more

Greek food at its finest, the portions are great , wide verity of choices , deserts? Great.

My family have been fans of Grape Leaf since they opened. Wonderful range of salads and hot foods for vegetarian or vegan tastes as well as traditional meats. Phil the owner takes a lot of pride in providing fantastic service as well as great food, which comes through no matter who you meet there. Phil catered a party for 50+ people recently for us and was very thoughtful in preparing the meal and service beforehand. On the night he turned up with two other servers and provided a memorably tasty experience for our guests. read more

Love this place! The food is great, good portions and the service is on it. Nice and clean and you can always grab a parking space nearby if you are patient. Best gyro's around! Case read more

I am really happy this place opened. We need more restaurants in Newton. The people are really nice and some of the food I've ordered (like the spanikopita) has been very good. However, if they are going to be able to compete with Anna's Taqueria across the street, I think they need to make a few changes. The fattoush and the gyros need to be improved. The fattoush had too much lettuce and not enough of the other stuff like cucumbers, tomatoes, olives and other leafy greens. Radishes would be nice too. I thought the meat for the gyros was tender and flavorful and the tzatziki is great. But, the gyro just didn't have a lot of flavor. It needs more tomatoes and onions. And why not offer up other toppings for the gyro like cucumbers, lettuce, herbs, pickled vegetables, olives, feta cheese, hot sauce? Lastly, I think there should be a recycling bin in the restaurant. Newton is pretty serious about recycling and people don't feel right throwing cans and plastic containers in the trash. So, again. I'm super excited that Grape Leaf came to Newton. I know it's a lot of work and it's a big risk to open a restaurant. So, I want to see them with a line out the door! I used to be a cook before I started my present career and I still cook a lot and explore restaurants all over. So, I think my opinion is well informed. read more

Consistently excellent food and service. I love the vegan platter and Greek salad with chicken. Yum!

Gyros were good we got the lamb and tofu! Good price as well! The lemon potatoes were good simple yet tasty. The potatoes are in a mixture of olive oil and lemon juice but nothing too overwhelming. The rice chicken lemon soup was a tad bit too sour for me but definitely what is needed to fight off a winter's cold. Good food, affordable and tasty what more can you ask for? Definitely will come back :) read more

I ordered the lamb gyro and Greek fries. It was not that great. It was sliced lamb meat, no spices/herbs. Very bland and a lot of liquid dripping. I don't really enjoyed my meal. That's not gyro!! Gyro is ground lamb meat mixed with spices and herbs. Very disappointed. Will not visit again. read more

Quick, clean, friendly, delicious with amazing smells to boot. Grabbed two spanakopita [spinach pie] and devoured mine in record time. Fabulous portions! I saw plenty of vegan options, which I thought was really cool. I loved the various Greek signage and etymology of Greek words painted on the wall as decor. These folks seem to have a handle on tradition as well as a focus on making their customers as happy and as accommodated as possible. Major props. read more

I had the most amazing omelette this morning! I have never tasted anything so delicious and so fresh! I highly recommend trying their breakfast! Their lunch/dinner is delicious as well. The vegan plate is one of my favorites and the greek french fries are to die for! read more

I'd been meaning to try Grape Leaf and correct forgetting. A friend reminded me about the restaurant. It's been a week since she told me and I've been twice in that time. The first time I had the lamb shank dinner and it was fall of the bone, melt in your mouth yummy. Big chunks of carrots sitting on a bed of pilaf with a side salad. My sister had the lamb gyro and raved about it. Now one week later we went back. I got the steak gyro and my sister got the lamb gyro again. We also split a greek salad. The greek salad was full of lettuce, onions, tomatoes, olives and two large chunks of feta. This is not the crumble the regular pizza parlor gives you but the real deal. It also came with two pieces of pita for us because we had told the cashier we were going to share the salad. Now I'm ready to go back and have convinced my coworkers to join me in a takeout meal! The only downside is the seating area is pretty small and therefore fills up quickly. Once the warmer weather comes out I figure I can take my food outside to one of the benches and enjoy good food and sunshine. They do not have a alcoholic beverages but that's ok with me. They have regular sodas and a few specialty sodas and juices. read more

Some of the best Mediterranean food I've ever had. I ordered through GrubHub for myself and coworkers during the lunch rush and a salad was unfortunately left behind. I called to let them know and Phil drove the salad over within ten minutes of getting the call. He also included an incredible variety of their desserts. I am a self proclaimed baklava connoisseur, and they have THE BEST BAKLAVA I'VE EVER HAD. Looking forward to ordering again. read more

The food was absolutely delicious and authentic. The feta is imported from Greece and the authentic touches make a difference. I've been a few times and I've yet to try anything I wouldn't give 5 stars. Real Greek food y'all! read more

Really amazing stuff, the falafel was really great in the mediterranean bowl, and the person behind the counter was so nice too.

I ordered a Greek falafel and it was so good! Everything you could want in nice falafel sandwich and the tzatziki sauce was really good! The people working were extremely friendly and it was a wonderful in restaurant experience. I will definitely be coming here again to try the other delicious looking things they have on the menu! read more

Best sweet potato fries I've ever had. Their salads are also phenomenal. Staff is friendly. Can't wait to try more items on the menu!

This place has great food, but they do something very dumb with delivery dinners that you should be aware of. They all include Greek Salad, which I expected would come in a separate container from the hot food. I was wrong. I ordered the most expensive thing on the menu, braised lamb shank, and the salad came in the same container as the hot meat, rice, and vegetables. Of course this meant that the lettuce was a limp mess from the heat of the other food, and the cold salad dressing had soaked into the rice and mixed with the tomato sauce from the lamb. Yuck! If you order a dinner for takeout or delivery, make sure that you ask them to put the salad in a separate container or you will get the same mess I got. They should know better. read more

Great food here, very friendly service and reasonable price. Ordered take out: was ready in 10 min and still hot when I picked up. Gyro chicken was fantastic. Only reason for 4 star instead of 5 was the fries. They were excellent but I paid extra for Greek fries and when I opened the box they were plain, with no cheese or oregano. Will definitley guve Grape Leaf another try. read more

Grape Leaf - Greek Near Me - Newton, Massachusetts

I have become addicted to the lemon and lentil soups. Made from scratch. Both are fabulous! Everything is fresh and delicious. A wonderful take out with fast service, and beyond grateful for your business. Don't miss out. Try it and you will be back. read more

Very tasty and fresh Greek food. More of a take out place than a sit down restaurant but the food is very good. A number of vegetarian options. Came second time and was not impressed with the tofu gyro. read more

I stumbled upon this place while traveling. I am always up for authentic Greek or Mediterranean food so i stopped in for quick lunch. It's counter service and was very clean and cute. Most of the food was very good. The portion sizes were more than enough for a lunch plate. I got the vegan plate even though I am not a vegan. I'm a vegetarian so I asked them to modify it which they happily did. The Tzatziki is excellent, the falafel balls are crispy on the outside and very flavorful on the inside. The tabouli was also fantastic. The reason they didn't get 5 stars is that the kid at the register seemed a little clueless. He may have been new and was sweet. The grape leaves were terrible. I can't speak to the grape leaves with meat but the vegan grape leaves were strange. They added chickpeas inside and they were very dry and lacked flavor. One major improvement they could make was to make the grape leaves with just rice and spices in a lemony sauce like everyone else! Disappointing. The rest was pretty good and they were very pleasant. They also only had one vegetarian plate that was a variety of their different foods. Many places will offer you the choice of three or four of their sides to make up one plate and you get to choose what it is. This would be a fantastic addition to their menu. Definitely stop in and get lunch here but avoid the grape leaves if you were looking for a traditional read more

The chicken for my salad and on the side was extemly dry. The lamb on my salad was the thin, cheap lamb. Both salad dressing were basic. The French fries were soggy and limp. Last but not least, my boxed juice was 2 months over the due date read more

My new go-to lunch spot. Everything is great. I even got a couple of quarts of soup for dinner.

Falafel balls were Under Cooked. Not happy with presentation. Cheap. No ketchup very simple but over priced. I will avoid and gladly spend $35 elsewhere. Dinner for 2 was more like Snack for 2. Portion tiny for certain items. The only thing I enjoyed were sweet potato fries, good not too oily read more

Customer service is amazing. My favorite place to order from. And my families go to for Greek Mediterranean meal. . Tonight we screwed up on our end the order and they were amazingly gratuitous and helpful with the error. They have definitely got our business read more

Great new restaurant in Newton Highlands. The owner Phil is quite helpful in explaining all the ingredients and the dishes. I had a Pastisio and my daughter had the chicken Gyro. Both were tremendous! I went back another time and had the gyro, but with Pork. SO flavorful! Great place...Highly recommend! read more

Best moussaka I've ever had! Ordered the meal and it was enough food for two people for about 13 bucks. Looked like everything was good here all made in house I guess. Will definitely be back read more

This review is for a delivery order and I have yet to dine in. I was particularly impressed with the chicken gyro, which was very juicy. Also enjoyed the grape leaf app. I plan to visit in person at some point in the near future. read more

Had a falafel gyro, all fresh ingredients, was delicious! I just wish it was a little bigger. Will be back.

Drove all the way from West Roxbury to try them out. Very nice people who make very delicious food, and at a great price.

This is an excellent restaurant!! I had the opportunity to attend a tasting of some signature menu items and was blown away by the depth of flavor and authenticity of the food I tasted. From the Avgolemono soup, to the vegetarian and meat grape leaves to the incredible handcut rotisserie chicken and flavorful salads/dressings, everything I tasted was delicious! If you are looking for authentic, high quality Mediterranean fare, at a very reasonable price, you have to try Grape Leaf Mediterranean Grille. I can't wait to go back!! read more

We just had lunch at Grape Leaf. It is a super convenient location in Newton Highlands, not far from Bread and Chocolate Bakery. They just build the space out in a very clean, modern way. You can take out or there is plenty of seating as well. They have a big, varied Greek menu. We are trying to be vegetarian for a bit here so had a variety of vegetarian items-- grape leaves, hummus, pita, falafel, even a veggie gyro. The food was truly excellent. So fresh and healthy. It came quickly and with a big smile. We will be back soon! read more

Nice and clean, food is fresh and interesting. Not why I expect from Falafel for example, but interesting. Price is OK and service is nice

Stopped by and had the Mediterranean bowl and grape leaves. My god they're delicious. I'll be coming back for sure.

I got the lamb shank dinner and it was awesome. Meat fell right off the bone. Will definitely go back. Highly recommend!

Grape Leaf is delicious! The Greek salad is amazing and the sweet potato fries with tzatziki are fantastic! Love the neighborhood feel to this place. read more

Great food! We had the vegetarian grape leaves (so good we had to order more) and Chicken Gyros. I would highly recommend this place and hope it sticks around. Nice casual atmosphere. read more
