    Half Chicken
    Nicole L.

    This place is take out only and the staff is very friendly. I got half a chicken plate and a beef wrap. The chicken was AMAZING. It comes with their habibi sauce which is so flavorful along with pita and fries. The beef wrap was just okay, it wasnt that flavorful and i couldnt really taste the beef. Hoping to try something different next time, but i'll definitely be back for more chicken!

    I was really hoping to like this place, but the food just clearly misses the mark. We were looking for great kabobs, but ended up with dry and under seasoned meat. Wasn't a big fan of the salad, rice or the pita either. I'm sure they could do a better job, but I will opt for a different place next time I'm craving Mediterranean.

    Don't let the image of a hole in the wall place fool you - the wraps here are arguably the best in greater Boston! I got the taouk chicken special which came with grilled chicken, coleslaw, Lebanese pickles, toum (garlic paste), and fries wrapped in a toasted seasoned sesame coated pita. I'll bring dreaming of that wrap for some time...

    Stopped and grabbed dinner for the family. What a hidden gem this place was. We got the Mashewe Family Feast, which was a healthy portion of chicken, beef, lamb, and kafta, the way it's all cooked over charcoal gives it an amazing flavor. That came with grilled vegetables, this amazing spicy pita, and rice I also grabbed a charcoal cooked farouj (Spatchcocked roasted chicken). It was delicious. Also comes with bread, fries, coleslaw and a salad. The fattoush salad I got was big enough for two people. Whatever house dressing they have is good, light and not overpowering at all. Nice to have a fresh, healthy take out option in the area. We will be back plenty of times I'm sure.

    I always come here since my partner loves their Mediterranean white pizza. He swears by it. I am…read morenot a fan of their pizza...since I really didn't try it. Today. I went to order pizza, French fries, onion rings. The only thing that went bad, I had to wait a longer than usual time. (30minutes). My wait was only because they made a small error on my original order, and had to redo it. But, let me tell you, their service was awesome. The service was awesome, and you could tell that they were upset that they made me wait. I then requested that they make my fries and onion rings again, since they were sitting on the counter for 15 minutes. They remade them and I was happy. When I tried the pizza, an XL pepperoni with sausage, it was awesome. Loved it. Onion rings were also good. And, I'm very picky when it comes to onion rings. It was not my first choice, but I am very pleased that I ended up there. Well worth the wait. The place is always clean also. Thank you.

These people working there are beyond rude and disrespectful especially the woman answering the phones on Monday nights. They could improve by hiring people that know how to really service the customers. They need to be trained on having better manners and to resolve situations in a positive manner. I will never ever order from any of those stores again! The food used to taste much better and the service sucks. If I'm going to spend my hard earned money, I'd rather spend it on a company that values customer retention and satisfaction.

Everything was delicious!…read moreWe all ordered the chicken kebab with rice, grilled vegetables, and a side salad, and for appetizers we shared pita chips with hummus and pita along with spanakopitas. For dessert they surprised me with a birthday slice of carrot cake, which was the perfect sweet ending. The space is beautifully decorated with floral aesthetics and a bright, welcoming atmosphere. There's even a real London red phone booth outside the entrance, and we each got a cute red phone booth keychain to take home, which was such a fun touch. For drinks, my friends tried the special martinis while I had the raspberry fizz, which was super refreshing and perfect for welcoming the spring season. The food was fantastic and the service was friendly and attentive. There's also plenty of parking, which is always a plus. The only tiny con was the music overhead was a bit loud... let's just say at one point our table conversation sounded more like we were at an indoor concert than having lunch. Another small downside was the bathroom situation--there seemed to be only one or two stalls for men and women, so there was a bit of a wait Overall, it was a wonderful birthday spot!

    I used to frequent Mediterrano in Hillsboro, NH, and absolutely loved it. When the restaurant…read morechanged ownership and then unfortunately closed during COVID, I was genuinely disappointed. About a year later, I found myself craving authentic Mediterranean food again, so I started searching for restaurants around New Hampshire. That's when I came across Ayasofia. As I looked through the menu and photos, everything seemed so familiar--it reminded me of the dishes I had loved at Mediterrano. The next day, my husband and I decided to drive an hour to Salem to try it out, and it was completely worth it. After speaking with the owner, we learned that Mediterrano had actually been owned by a member of his family and that they use the same recipes. It all made perfect sense! The owner was incredibly warm and welcoming, even encouraging us to return and meet his mother, who taught him these recipes. I highly recommend the hummus, baba ghanoush, salsa, and grape leaves--they're all fantastic. Be sure to order the lavash bread on the side, as it pairs perfectly with everything. For a main course, the adana lamb kebab is a must-try. Everything tastes incredibly fresh and full of flavor. I only wish I could cook like this--I'd happily eat Mediterranean food every single day!

    Turkish restaurant during the day ... Rowdy party bar at night a great time…read more We got a plate of grape leaves and a chicken Kebab and falafel dinner. My husband was particularly excited by how the rice was made. The grape leaves were good and the dinners came with the red cabage and salad. Delicious. I also got the Raki, because I was having Turkish food, but all the cocktails sounded very good. We did not sit in the bar, but they sounded like they were having the time of their lives in there. At one point Rod Stewart came on over the speakers and you could hear them shouting "ROD!!!" I was like, shit - Turkish food AND the regulars love Rod Stewart? Sign me up! If we lived anywhere near here, we'd be back.

The reviews for this place caught my eye as I do like Mediterranean Turkish cuisine. I noticed that they had standard fare as well as lots of veggie and vegetarian options on their menu. I decided to run in quickly with my order for a beef gyro as well as an eggplant gyro. My first impression was that the place is cute casual and clean. The friendly staff member took my order and after a short wait, I was given a neatly packaged small shopping bag. I appreciated the disposable plates and utensils that were included without my asking, and am always iffy about eating on the go. I am not a fan of messy so there is that haha. Let me just say that I was completely satisfied with my gyros as they tasted great. They also added a nice amount of tzatziki sauce just as requested yum. It was delish, so much so that I scarfed it down without taking any pictures. This was indeed an enjoyable late lunch!

We were told we had to order the bread with the assortment of cold appetizer spreads and that really was fantastic. Piping hot bread, huge and an assortment of 4 dishes to go with it. All were tasty, especially the hummus. This alone is worth the journey to find this place. I had the lamb kofte, which are flattened meatballs usually cooked like a kebob. I was served a large portion and they tasted delicious, plenty to bring home. The other diners with me enjoyed their chicken kabob, falafel and kabob wrap. We thought the prices were fair for such generous portions. We will try again if in the area. Give this place a try if you have been sitting on the fence like me.
