The guys here are friendly and the food is great! Had a steak bowl and loved it. I'll be back.

I was here once when it opened abd had chicken kebab plate and was not impressed and never went there again UNTIL... Came across a video of their chicken schwarma wrap and decided to gove it shot and i tell you $18 wrap had me fumming at myself but the wrap was amazing and size nice as well and not those tinny tiny ones. While waiting i asked if they kept falafels as was not on menu and he is like sure so i ordered some since my wife loves them. While waiting for falafels i was munching on the wrap and it was so good. Grilled with sauce and sesame seeds and all I took the falafels but they were so fresh and hot that i had to try them in the car and they were most unique tasting in good way and were really amazing. Overall made me a fan but hoping no price increases due to popularity otherwise at steep price as it is now it will be little out of affordable category read more

I came here after seeing all the viral photos of the touak special wrap- it's worth the hype! It's gigantic so definitely a great deal with two people. This is my husband's favorite handheld in the area. He doesn't like pickles but he likes it in the wrap! The service is very friendly, and they also sell some baklava. Mostly street parking (or as I said make-your-own street parking). For me personally the French fries make the wrap a little too heavy - don't get me wrong, it's still delicious but I might try getting a different wrap and asking for the habibi sauce on the outside to see if it's more balanced for me. The sleeper hit was the 1/2 chicken - completely butterflied and roasted in a crazy flavorful spice mix and served on top of French fries and pita with toum inside (plus a side of toum and habibi). It's like a deconstruction special wrap, but the chicken is insane and way better than the chunks. Highly recommend if you're looking for something different! There's only three seats inside so not great for dine-in, but when they said we were eating inside, they offered to cut our wrap in half and served it on two paper plates with napkins plus a little stick of gum for afterwards! I thought that was such a thoughtful touch! read more

1st visit today and not our last ! The grilled wraps, were so worth the wait!! It was busy today on a Sunday during the dinner rush , but I'm telling you it's so worth the wait !! read more

Stopped at the Charcoal Pit for lunch on a Thursday @ 11:00am. It was already busy. It is a very small space- standing room only. Very nice and friendly guys working there. I had a chicken wrap- which was grilled and loaded with good amount of chicken, fries, slaw. and more. Good portion and enough for 2 people. It was ready in 20 minutes or less. The space is not wheelchair accessable or have any bathrooms. read more

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! read more

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. read more

Saw on IG about the special chicken wrap. ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS and WORTH the 30 min drive! I also got the homemade hummus and baklava which are also absolutely incredible!!! Got the tabouleh and Dubai bar to try later as well! Call ahead as everything is super fresh and only 2 guys were working out of the small kitchen. Just phenomenal food! We will be back to try more- already craving the wrap for dinner after my lunchtime stop! read more

Absolutely fantastic! This Mediterranean restaurant served delicious grilled chicken over rice. The chicken was tender, juicy and perfectly seasoned. The hummus was creamy and fresh. Everything tasted authentic and made with care. The staff showed such great effort and kindness, and even learned my name, which made me feel truly welcome. The atmosphere was relaxed yet inviting. read more

Someone asked me the other day what my most memorable meal was lately. The charcoal pit was my overwhelming answer. The wraps are to die for and full of flavor, the salad and fries were also the stars of the show. Food is on the pricier side, but well worth the price. read more

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... read more

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. read more

I am so glad we found this place! It's super tiny, you can easily miss it when you drive by, but don't let its petite store front fool you. Whatever you order, get some toum with it, we ate it with every bite, it's so delicious. We got the kafta kabob wrap, chicken kabob entree, and hummus - and they were all amazing. The sweet couple running the place were so nice and even thought to put hot and cold items in separate bags. I grew up in Los Angeles, I've eaten a lot of Lebanese food, and this place is top notch! I'd upload pictures but it disappeared rather quickly read more

I came to Haverhill to visit family. I was starving and I always try to taste new places family owned business preferably, I stumbled upon The Charcoal Pit Mediterranean Grill!

The food portions are huge! The pricing was very reasonable, and the chicken and flavors are really GREAT! Would totally recommend to anyone in Haverhill or if you live close stopby! Staff is very friendly and it was a great experience overall read more

My daughter got the hummus with meat it comes in a pita chip bowl the hummus and delicious and we got a Fattoush salad which was also fantastic the super staff was friendly and polite would highly recommend giving them a try read more

The owner was the only person working when I stopped in. He was very friendly. I love Lebanese food so I ordered a chicken kebab entrée. I had to wait about 15 minutes which wasn't bad but unfortunately, it was very cold inside because the door wouldn't stay closed. I wouldn't suggest eating there because it is very small inside. Brought the food home and was impressed with the amount of food given. It was good but not the best I've had. I may give it another try but the meal was pricey too so the verdict is not in yet!' read more

Great customer service and delicious food. I got the chicken shawarma wrap. Would definitely recommend

The food was delicious and the owner was gracious. I ordered four different foods and the owner went out his way to make us knowledgeable about the food we were going to eat. I would recommend this business to anyone visiting haverhill. The ambiance was comfortable.. read more

Kafta was delicious and so was the pilaf. Pre-packaged salad was the only low point - they could just get rid of that. I'll be back to try the rest of the menu! read more

This is dome amazing food! Lots of new flavors for me. Id go back running. Would highly recommend

Had the Taouk special at the advice of the owner. The flavors were so good ordered a lamb kabob wrap to go.
