They lowered their quality. Portion size, too. Their gyros are now half their former size. Same price, however. Same for the chicken shawarma. The quality of the meat and veggies has dropped, too. Disappointing.

Huge selection here and tons of fresh food options. Food always comes out fast and hot and the staff is always a pleasure to talk to. Try out the fries and garlic aioli. So so so good. Baklava is also amazing!!!

The food is excellent and the atmosphere is awesome!Parking: Parking is on the street in front of the market.Wheelchair accessibility: They have automatic doors that open and close.
Independent Mediterranean Market. Nice size, good selection of Mediterranean regional foods. Olive bar, house made pitas, sandwiches to go, other regional food products.Employees were nice and very friendly. I will update this review after a couple more visits. My First visit was in Feb. 2024.

You ever wanted authentic Lebanese food? THIS IS THE PLACE. Everyone is extremely friendly, the food was top notch, the manaeesh was so good, I recommend the lahme one with some lemon squeezed and if you fine with spices then that as well. The bread there is made fresh and tastes amazing! The grape leaves and the deserts are really good as well. Gonna be coming here every week. 10/10

Woah - what a find in this funky little strip of Brookline. We wandered in yesterday during the lunch hour, and our mouths dropped open. This is a combo grocery/café kind of place that seems popular in this neighborhood. The shelves are gloriously well stocked with (pretty inexpensive !) spices, rice, tease, coffee, even buckets of tahini, and so much more! It was a feast for the senses! Toward the back of the store was probably the best part. We saw a woman loading shelves with fresh pita bread, including warm, zaatar, spiced, pita. 0MG! There were also barrels of beans and grains. And then a huge counter in the back with meat, and/or veggie stuffed small pastries, stuffed grape leaves, various types of feta, falafel, on and on. We ordered a smattering of everything to sample. The zaatar bread was awesome - so flavorful and generously spiced. We also ordered chicken schwarma wraps which were filled with garlic sauce, shredded lettuce, with a bit of tomato. SO YUM! The Muhammara dip was phenomenal. I just can't say enough good stuff. The sweets cabinet looked like a picture out of magazine - packed with all kinds of homemade baklava & Turkish delight. Such a great experience. Cannot wait to return!!!

Great Mediterranean spot in Brookline. Chicken shawarma is one of my favorites. Their French fries are amazing and so is the sauce they come with. Delicious fattoush and tabbouleh. Really yummy desserts as well!

Large selection of tasty and healthy products. But the prices for flatbreads, in my opinion, are unreasonably high. I have visited various restaurants and bakeries that have their own production. Despite the high-quality raw ingredients, prices there are much lower than here.
