We were greeted by the owner and made to feel comfortable as soon as we walked in. This time, as usual, we started with the red lentil soup and hummus. Both delicious and the hummus as smooth as silk and not over-loaded with tahini. We tried the fried calamari for the first time, and I wouldn't order that again; I think it's a frozen product they simply reheat; the sauce that came with it was good and the calamari tasty, but not what you're looking for if you want calamari. Our choice of entree is usually get the Fainting Imam, stuffed eggplant with vegetables, pine nuts and raisins, and it is heavenly, but this time I decided to experiment and ordered the Vegetable Mousakka With Béchamel Sauce. I was a little disappointed in the dish; it was made up of a variety of vegetables, sliced thin and layered. There was a piece of fried potato I couldn't cut through; it was really crunchy-hard. I ate it; it was good, but too done. What disappointed me was the absence of Bechamel sauce; it may have been there, but if it was, I couldn't taste or see it. Maybe a foam??? That was one of my reasons for trying the dish; I expected more of a Pastitsio-like layer of Bechamel or at least something I could discern in the dish. The Shepphard salad did not come with my entree (I don't know why? It comes with the Imam?), but I had to order it; it is out of this world. Simple and delicious. Particularly appealing to me is that they do not include large pieces of green pepper in the salad; there were a few bits, but not overwhelming. Next time, I might just get that salad, the soup and some hummus!!! I may have whined a little here, but don't let anything I said keep you away from Pasha. The owner, the staff and the food are wonderful.

I placed our order on their website, and we headed over to pick up. Parking is tricky, but not as difficult as in Davis Square. It looked like there were a few small tables inside the tiny restaurant. It seems like they do a solid take-out business based on the number of people picking up brown paper bags at the same time as us. My son fully enjoyed his chicken shawarma sandwich with tahini, and I got the combo kebab dinner plate. I subbed fattoush for the salad, and I got all three sauces. The fattoush pita was fried (nice crunch, but greasy), and it was not heavily spiced, so not the best I've ever had, but not terrible. I did not care for the garlic sauce; the tahini sauce was basic, but the babaganoush had an incredible smokiness to it. Both the chicken and beef kabobs were juicy and flavorful, but I did not love the lale kebab. The prices were great, and I was able to get two meals out of my dinner plate. I will definitely be visiting again soon!

Can't believe I've been living in the area for over a decade and never thought to check it out…read more Ironically, I only discovered this place because I had to park nearby and walk nearly 3 blocks to the Mediterranean Grill which proved to be an underwhelming experience, but noticed this place due to the "Zagat rated" sign in the window which piqued my interest. Well, sometimes the best things happen by pure chance...and thus I came back to try out this place a couple weeks later, and found it to be far and away the best Greek/Mediterranean food I've ever had in the entire greater Boston area! It's easy to see why this place is Zagat rated. Easily beats out bigger, trendier and fancier-looking, much pricier "Greek" places such as Zo Greek in Somerville's Assembly Square (review upcoming) as well as the more downmarket hole in the wall places like Falafel King. Everything was very fresh and flavorful. Loved the Sampler Plate for two, everything on it was absolutely scrumptious and next time I might order one just for myself so I don't need to share it with anyone else, hahaha...really brings out your inner greedy-S.O.B.! Also loved that their fresh-cut french fries are actually pan-fried, not deep fried...first time I've ever encountered that anywhere in this city, and they were also crazy good...instead of just tasting the oil as happens with deep-frying (especially if they are frozen fries with that yucky mushy cardboard texture) you actually get the full flavor of the (gasp!) POTATOES, and do not need to drown them in ketchup or salt the living daylights out of them. Truly a "homemade" experience! We tried both the "Greek" fries and the regular fries, both were rave-worthy...and this is from someone who normally avoids fries in restaurants because they are usually made from tasteless frozen potatoes. Lamb kebab and moussaka were also excellent, as was the baklava and galaktoboureko. Baklava outside of the Mediterranean and Middle East tends to be very mediocre and overly sweet...not here! Lastly, it's a beautiful and charming spot. It doesn't make any attempt to be trendy or gimmicky. Just has a warm friendly ambiance, which also describes the service. Can't recommend this place enough...will definitely be one of my regular go-to places!

The places he used to go are gone, some replaced by local chains, casual in line with national chains. I wasn't interested in that sanitized version of Greek food that I knew it's lack authenticity. I did lots of research looking for a family owned restaurant (Yelp wasn't helpful at all). Found the Greek Corner in an article about best Greek restaurants in Boston, after looking into the menu and address, I realized that it was close to our accommodation, a few minutes of walking away! Greek Corner it was meant to be! We dined there after our first full day in Boston, after long hours of walking, working and sightseeing. The restaurant was cozy, nice decor, with a few regular customers. We were greeted right away, asked to sit where we wanted, so we picked a table by the window. Got water from the house right away. Customer service is attentive, not hovering, just right. We order portions of gyros and souvlaki, they both come with salads and fries or rice. Avery, our waiter substituted for free for us regular fries with Greek fries (they come with cheese, sprinkled with oregano), and we thought that was so nice and welcoming! Food was great, classic, traditional in the good way, the meat is tender, flavorful, the salads are fresh, the feta cheese is outstanding. The gyro plate coms with pita bread. We got Mythos beer to go with the food, not amazing, had it before in Greek restaurants but why go with anything that's not Greek? For dessert, we shared a Galaktoboureko, a cheese/vanilla custard pie in phyllo dough with cinnamon sprinkled on top, it melts in your mouth! Perfect place to chill and decompress after a long day, relaxing, great service, good food! We also came back here during our last full day in Boston. It was a change of plans. This year, we seem to go on a new personal trend while travelling - we love a restaurant and keep going back LOL! It was a rainy day, we were tired and wanted to stay away from tourist traps so coming back to a nice neighborhood spot where you know what you'll get it was comforting. We were recognized by the staff right away, picked the same time and ordered Greek red wine - Vin de Crete (just OK) and I got a Moussaka, a nice hot dish, loved the potatoes and eggplant, a classic dish, I chose rice pilaf this time around. My husband went for the Pastitso, perfect for a cooler day. He also got rice pilaf and the dish was perfect. They both come with the Greek salads which we loved! For dessert, we went classic again, shared a portion of Baklava (my husband had his eyes set on in from our previous time), and it didn't disappoint! Prices are reasonable here, service is nice, we loved having Avery taking care of us, nice to chat with, very fun and kind. It really feels like a cozy neighborhood spot where you are taken care of! I wish I could still walk to it! Can I have it bought to LA, please? Great Greek restaurant in Cambridge! Loved everything about it!

I appreciated how much this place leans into both cultures from decor showcases both cultures to their balanced menu featuring dishes from both. There is ample seating at this place and dont let the construction outside deter you because they are open. We ordered the cheese manakish to start, and this might have been my favorite dish. Balanced with two types of cheese with a light airy texture to it kept it from feeling too dense. The pita its on is crunchy and thin, and theres a drizzle of sauce, likely some form of pesto, that cuts the flavor making it a truly enjoyable dish. We also ordered the chicken kebabs and roasted jerk chicken. The kebabs were a great portion with tender chicken, some greens, and grains. I personally could have used more tzakai, but thats a personal preference. Overall though, the meal did not feel heavy and I left feeling full but not overtly stuffed which I was happy with. My husband's jerk chicken was a sizable dish. The chicken was tender and fell right off the bone, and the pilaf had a nice flavor to it. Overall we really enjoyed our meals.

Because it will have been spinning on that stick for way too long and gotten way too dry and hard. Also, the Greek fries if ordered separately are quite good.
