Just ate here tonight and got the shawarma beef and lamb plate. Soooo good. The meat was great and the side salad and humus and pita are amazing. I was stuffed and just ran 8 miles around campus so i was famished. Really good and fast service. They have a cup of white sauce which is like tzatziki sauce but some crazy good form of it. I want a bucket of that stuff lol. The meat was a little on the bland side. I've had shawarma with meat that has like 10 flavors exploding in your mouth but not this. Still very good and would go back

On the go. Let's grab take out shawarma. Chicken was old, cold and rubbery. The customer service was nonexistent. Otherwise barely mediocre experience without sunshine, including cold pita. The high point was when I asked for crispy chicken and he told me it was already prepared and in the bin lol. So I knew it was a gamble out of the gate. However, not my first rodeo so I asked if it could be heated on a grill top or something and he said, "No, it's too small. It will fall through (grill grates)." That is true, small bits of chicken will fall through a grill grate but is there atl east a microwave to heat the bread and chicken? I'm certain that this place has had better days as it is especially difficult to mess up shawarma. But cold chicken and pita that you can bat a ball with is not good. Can't win them all.

I cannot had enough from this amazing food. Sam by himself welcomed us and we got served one of the best sharma and falafal in New England. God bless him and his amazing team. By the way we came all the way from Westford to his shop in Somerville and it worth it.

Best falafel sandwich in the area! Packed with flavor, sauces, veggies, and overall a very authentic taste. The Pita bread is fresh as well. The grape leaves were made to perfection. Highly recommend this place and can't wait to try more from their menu.

Very impressed by Sam's! I ordered the chicken shawarma plate and was not disappointed. The portion was enormous loaded with tons of meat, and the entire meal was oh so flavorful! Will definitely be ordering from here again!

Mohamed is very hospitable and gave me a sample house fry in a tasty (mayo or tahini?) dip, falafel (crispy on the outside, soft in the middle), and even a cup of his home brewed coffee as I waited for my Uber. They were all fresh and delicious. I ordered a chicken shawarma plate as take out- it was delicious even though I only had it a couple hours later. The chicken was well-seasoned and juicy, and paired perfectly with the fluffy rice and cumato salad. The white sauce on the side was also very additive.

Genuinely good shawarma, but weirdly it's the sauces that stand out to me. I don't know if I'll be able to enjoy other shawarma places anymore.

The food here was fantastic! I just returned from a trip to Greece and wanted something that tasted authentic. I ordered the chicken and lamb shawarma and rice with the hummus plus falafel and stuffed grape leaves. Everything was so good and fresh. The falafels were really Fresh and crispy and the leaves were good as well. The prices were fine, it's a good amount of food. I'll be back here at least a couple times a month!

So I'm new to the area and glad to see that Sam's Falafel place is quite within walking distance. I ordered through DoorDash but apparently when I got there the owner Sam (I assumed) were quite critical about DoorDash and I definitely understand it can be tough for small business to survive in today's COVID climate. So I would sympathize with him when he gets heated about the situation. Personally I'll definitely be ordering directly with them in the future.I had a wait a little bit when I arrived for food pick up but the wait was definitely well worth it. They were quite amazing. One of the most juicy and tasty Lamb Shawarma I've tasted and the Falafel was really tasty and fresh too and not dry. The garlic does seem a little strong but while they sandwiches are warm and hot they go quite well in my opinion. So I definitely wish them all the success and continue to produce delicious sandwiches.
