We're visiting the Boston area and decided to try Rami's since we were looking for a glatt kosher place nearby. It's a simple, casual spot, but the food was fresh and very satisfying. We ordered classic Israeli dishes, and everything tasted authentic and well prepared. Service was quick, and the staff was efficient. The place isn't fancy, but it's clean and does exactly what it's supposed to do -- good kosher food without a long wait. Prices are reasonable for the area. Overall, a solid and reliable option if you're looking for kosher food in Brookline. read more

The falafel with Humus was awesome. Plenty of fresh vegetables and a little hot sauce, warm falafel in a fluffy Pita bread. Perfectly vegetarian and great for the health! Service was friendly and the ambiance was nice and clean interior. They also have exterior/patio seating. read more

I came here off of the recommendation of a friend who is Israeli. He said the food is delicious and decided to give it a try. They have a bunch to offer with different variations and substitutions for food which I like. I tried a swarma with everything on it (the right way, haha) and it was delicious. It tasted fresh, meat was cooked well, delicious flavours, and perfectly stuffed in the pita pocket. Not sloppy either, yet plenty of a tahini spread inside. The staff were attentive and quick to prepare the order. The only thing I didn't care for was the boureka. It could have been hotter (inside was a bit cool). I never had them before but was especting them to be lighter and flakier. It was too stodgy and doughy for me. But I'd consider coming back for another swarma and other menu items. read more

Rami's has easily become one of my favorite establishments to stop by whenever I crave a dense but clean protein-packed meal. With their food quality and efficient service consistent throughout all my visits for the past two years, it really doesn't take much to convince me to drop what I'm doing and beeline right straight here. I love their stuffed pitas but nothing delights me more than the Rami's special, which just combines everything I love laid out nicely on a plate with a warm pita on the side. Fresh, crisp greens with house pickles. Creamy hummus. Flavorful, crispy exterior, and moist inside Falafels. Tasty meat cigars (kebabs). Tender chopped chicken. Hot sauce (schug) with a slight kick to tie it all in together. What's not to like? What's not to love? Can't wait to be back again! Definitely recommend! read more

Got the turkey shawarma plate - came with a generous portion of shawarma (perfectly seasoned), hummus, and salad. The pita was fluffy in all of its glory and was a sturdy vehicle if you wanted to turn your plate into a pita. The plate could easily be split between two people- just be sure to order sides of pita! read more

Rami's was a great falafel place through and through. The servers were very nice and took my order the way i wanted it. And the place was a nice quiet spot just outside of Friar Tucks, my boss, Rob, asked me if I wanted to go and I sure as heck had a good time while I was there. I had a hummus and falafel pita with pickles, spicy sauce, and tahini, and it was REALLY good. The creaminess of the tahini, hummus, and spicy sauce and the chewiness of the falafel and the crunchiness and acidity of the pickles made a great first bite. 10/10 would go here again. read more

About 20 years ago I used to ditch Contracts with some friends to get the shawarma sandwiches here--we were just reminiscing about how incredible they were. Legendary shawarma. Worth embarrassing ourselves to walk out of front row center seats for. We miss Rami's and hope to visit sometime soon. read more

Rami's is consistently excellent! They serve the best falafel in a pita, with all the fresh ingredients, this side of Israel! The service is always fast and efficient. Rami comes from a restaurant family and he sure knows how to run a great place to eat, healthy and happy. read more

Satisfied my cravings! Food was great and service was fast. The kebab meat was juicy and the pita was absolutely stuffed. I appreciated how much was packed in (almost couldn't finish it!). The pickles had a nice crunch and the hot sauce added a nice kick at the end. I wish there were more hot sauce or if I ordered it on the side instead to incorporate into every bite. It was a little salty for my taste but the hummus and salad helped level it out a bit. Definitely would come back to try other items on their menu. read more

Rami's - Kabob and Hummus Pita - Middle Eastern Near Me - Brookline, Massachusetts

Overall: 7.5/10 Taste: 8/10 - Falafels here are by far the best thing. Very crisp outside but not too dense inside with nice non-oily flavor - Everything else here is quite bland. The hummus and spicy sauce are decent. Price: 6/10 - The plates are very overpriced for the amount of meat and size of the portions. Service: 9/10 - The workers were very friendly and welcomed us in with a falafel and hummus sample Ambiance: 7/10 - The inside is cramped and the high tables we sat at had part of it being used for storage read more

Excellent food, extremely clean, excellent service. We have to support this people they deserve it!!!

Our daughter lives near by and raves about the food. We drove an hour to take her to eat at Rami's. Our experience did not disappoint. The food was fantastic. I'd love to keep this a "secret" but feel like you should give it a try. read more

Rami's - Shawarma and Hummus Pita. Delicious. - Middle Eastern Near Me - Brookline, Massachusetts

Awful service. I waited about half an hour for my order even though there was barely any customers in the store. Also the so-called falafel is very dry, they put the minimum amount of sauce. I had to ask for more, and even after asking for more, they only added a few drops. read more

Loved the food. Loved the service. Tasted like in Israel. DELICIOUS! Highly recommend the falafel platter! read more

So good that I had to come back because I just couldn't stop thinking about it! The falafel and hummus pita is filling and well worth it. I brought my grandparents here and they loved it! The owner came out and talked to them which made the visit feel a little extra special. Service is friendly and ambiance is comfortable because of it! It may not look like much from the outside, but trust me, go in. You won't regret it! read more

Rami's - Falafel and Hummus Pita - Middle Eastern Near Me - Brookline, Massachusetts

I was craving hummus and salad this day, so this was perfect. Everything was super fresh and you can tell they make it in store. The hummus was amazing, I scraped it off the plate. The salad was fresh, I jus wish they gave me more pickles, and a different hot sauce. Overall a great option for a quick healthy and refreshing lunch option around Coolidge corner. read more

Rami's - Hummus and salad plate (one falafel on the side) - Middle Eastern Near Me - Brookline, Massachusetts

Consistent, tasty, and fresh falafel; simply the best falafel pita in the city!! In addition, you will find friendly, efficient staff and a really clean restaurant. And Ivrit (Hebrew) is spoken here. Metzuyan! (excellent!) Todah rabah (thank you), Rami! read more

I love the pitta bread, ordered takeout baba hummus salad plate, good food came with one pitta. Would def order again here and buy an extra pitta it was that good, homemade hot and fresh. Baba and hummus have bang flavor, drizzled with a bit of olive oil on top. Salad is chopped style w cukes, toms etc. and pickles. Portion satisfying. Did not go inside for the takeout, and first time takeout. Looking forward to having lunch or supper here again. read more

Can't even begin to say how much I love this place. I always get the falafel and hummus pita and it always exceeds expectations. The staff are super friendly and the food is delicious. Definitely a hole in the wall kind of place and even though the inside is small, there's plenty of seating inside and outside. Best falafel I've ever had! read more

One of the best kosher chicken shawarma and falafel pita sandwiches I ever had in New England

The food is outstanding. One of my favorite places for lunch. Also, fairly priced. A great value in every way.

I've been coming here since it first opened over 30 years ago. There's a reason it's still around! Great food, friendly staff. Falafel is great. The Kebab Yerushalmi is excellent. The beef cigars are great. The pita is soft and fresh. Lots to like! read more

Bought the smallest platter on the menu for a small gathering. It was so so nice: a huge plate of hummus and Israeli salad, plus a large bag of pitas and a box of falafel. Really wonderful people there, made my day! Thank you! read more

I love Ramis falafel. Might be the best falafel in the city... and they have the Fluffy pita. They are center serve and have a few tables inside and 2 outside. Service is friendly and the prices are god especially for a kosher restaurant. They are kosher meat so t is easy for vegans - no dairy n the restaurant. They are closed For the sabbath Friday night-Saturday. I would like if they eliminated styrofoam packaging in future! read more

Rami's - Falafel and Hummus Pita - Middle Eastern Near Me - Brookline, Massachusetts

There are a lot of falafel places around, but, for twenty years (I don't even know how long), Rami's has been making the best hummus and falafel (with salad) in a pita that I have ever had. There are lots of other things on the menu, but you can never go wrong with the hummus and falafel. read more

We regularly order the falafel and salad plate. It comes with humus, 6 falafels, salad, pickles, and a warm pita. The pita is delicious and falafels are best when freshly made. We always ask for the mango and hot sauce on the humus. It gives it an extra kick. Service is a hit or miss. Sometimes the guys are friendly and sometimes they're inpatient and rude. For now, we will overlook their rude service for the quality of food. read more

Mediocre food and a tad expensive for what it is. The fresh pita bead is pretty grey though Nice stay and cozy, if over bright read more

Amazing customer service. Dana is wonderful! I placed an UberEats order that was never picked up and they super kindly made me another one. UberEats customer service was the worst but Rami's made up for it! Thank you! read more

The best Falafel with the best pita!!! if you love angels bakery in Jerusalem, you will certainly enjoy this place.

Food was absolutely delicious. all fresh ingredients and wonderful seasoning. Worth your time and money!!

This place has some pretty tasty stuff! I had the Kabob, humans falafel salad platter. The kabob was great! Typical middle eastern spices which was great. PTA was warm and soft and a real nice chew to it. The humans was fresh and amazing and the falafel was great. Literally everything it ate was great i highly recommend this joint if you are visiting Brookline in Boston. Some of you may be wondering why did I not give them five stars. I would have given them another half if I could but yelp won't allow me. The only down fall was the size of the plate and the price. The plate was too small and it felt like everything was on top of each other. I also got a potato Boorekas, which was really good. My total with a Bottle of water was over $18.00. For that price I should have gotten more kabob and Falafel. Again, if you like middle eastern food, this place has excellent flavors. read more

Rami's - Middle Eastern Near Me - Brookline, Massachusetts

Been coming here for years, and it's the best and most authentic falafel you can get in MA. Service can be slow, and sure, the environment is outdated, and yes...it's also pretty expensive, but Rami's is an institution in my mind and I love getting a huge falafel pocket with extra Israeli pickles! Delicious food and definitely try a nectar drink if you like the taste of ripe fruit! read more

Complete disappointment. I feel based on my experience, it is hard to mess up middle eastern food to a degree it can't be eaten. Well, Rami's did it! Everything we ordered was bad. read more

A taste of Israel without the long flight! We had falafel, shawarma, hummus, salad and fries. First the fries were so good! Crispy and not too salty. Yum! Loved everything but especially the hummus. It was smooth and flavorful. Highly recommend! There are about 6 tables inside. read more

My first experience with Rami's was a couple of years ago at their food truck (now ChikChak truck), which really impressed me. I knew that if I came back to Boston I'd want to get some of their amazing Israeli food again. This time I went to their restaurant in Brookline and it did not disappoint. I ordered the kebab, falafel, hummus and salad plate (to go), with pita and baklava. I maintain that they have the best pita. Ever. It's so so so good. Their falafel is perfectly seasoned and delicious also. The kebabs though, are equally amazing: Juicy, flavorful and cooked perfectly. Rami's has cemented its status in my mind as the place to go for kosher food in Boston. I've tried other places but they just don't compare. The next time I'm in Boston I'll definitely be back for more! Note: Oddly enough, I was told that they aren't honoring the Yelp check-in offer (free medium soda). I'm not sure why, but just a heads up. read more

Rami's - Kebab, Falafel, Salad and Hummus Plate (to go) - Middle Eastern Near Me - Brookline, Massachusetts

I am kosher and frequently get lunch or dinner from here. I also ordered catering once for a Shabbat dinner. I usually order the turkey or chicken shwarma. I frequently order the grilled chicken shawarma salad plate with hummus. The pita and hummus are amazing! It is very pricey but fairly normal for kosher meat and they really load up the plate with meat. You will leave very full and satisfied. The seating area is small but you never wait too long for a table. Be mindful of the hours because they are shomer Shabbat - they close early on Fridays and are closed on Saturday. read more

Rami's - Grilled chicken, salad and hummus plate - Middle Eastern Near Me - Brookline, Massachusetts

If you've ever seen the Seinfeld episode with the Soup Nazi I dare you to go here and not see some similarities in the service. That said, I had some delicious falafel here. And I mean realllly delicious. I would stand in line for this falafel. Hell, I'd even put up with Mr. Bossypants barking at me from behind the counter for this falafel. Funny enough, the guys were actually friendly to me when we stopped in. They even made light conversation with me and wondered where my west coast accent was from. The guy behind me got the opposite treatment though and I half expected a "No Kabob for You!" It's not cheap and I'd put the hummus a slight step above average, but if you like falafel as much as me you'll wait your turn, place your order, and march two steps to the right in silence to get it. read more
