Stardust - Inspired Mediterranean

Amazing food! Walked by this small joint so many times and we finally decided to order from here. We went around to pick up our order and I'm glad we did because we met the owner who was so friendly and welcoming. Wet had a good chat for 15-20 mins and he also gave us a couple of items to try. I'm glad he did because they were excellent and we're sure to order more!We tried the chicken, falafel, tzatziki, hummus, grape leaves and everyone enjoyed everything, which was great! We can't wait to order from here again.

I needed to update this review. I must have caught him on an off day last time, and frankly I was emabarassingly wrong. I got a large order from Stardust today, and everything was great. The food is very authentic and delicious. I ordered nearly everything on the menu, and the lamb tenderloin kebab and beef/chicken luleh (burger) kebabs were my favorite. Also, probably my favorite hummus I have had anywhere. This is a small place, so for large orders call well in advance! The owner is very friendly and does a great job. Overall, some of the best Persian/caucuses style food around. I actually prefer this to Roxana in Watertown (and they are quite good)

A spectacular little hole in the wall, delicious Mediterranean food with generous portions, the service was fantastic and very accommodating of my gluten intolerance.

Amazingly good - I have lived nearby for years but never ordered, this will be on my takeout rotation going forward though! Flavorful Mediterranean food, affordable, overall great.

What a pleasant break from the norm of shawarma and middle eastern grilled plates in Boston. There is SO MUCH variation to the cuisines of the region, but all we ever get i feel like is Greek, and hit-or-miss Lebanese-esque (which, when it's a hit, I do love), and those cuisines are pretty familiar and sadly most places are very cookie cutter. Not here! Stardust has everything I love about Greek and middle eastern food: fresh, not too oily, grilled meats, good rice (or flat bread), refreshing salads, and silky hummus, but it's a little different! "Inspired" even ;)I'll need to come back for some of their signature dishes, but can definitely recommend either chicken plate if you like the kind of meal I described. As others have mentioned, they are hefty! I would note that the spicy chicken is not at all "spicy", but it is "spiced" heavily, and comes with a hot pepper relish Service was fast when I can in around 1pm, and the (I'm assuming) owner hooked me up with some bread and baklava to try. So glad he did because they're both excellent! Bread is like a pita if it was fluffy, and the baklava tastes like nuts (not just sugar like at some other spots *cough*Boston Shawarma*cough*) and was a great end to lunch

This little hole in the wall restaurant is my go to for takeout. Amazing food, and the portion sizes are huge. Can stretch the chicken plate to 3 meals if needed. If you pick up in person the staff is sooooo nice. They throw in little goodies to try and will tell you treats that aren't always on the menu. Usually have a stew cooking for those cold nights.

Great food. Large portions. Best homemade pita bread I've ever had - warm it up in the toaster oven first. Could only eat about half the entree. Not a dine-in kind of place, FYI. The eggplant dip, babaganoush is really good too. The medium is pretty big. Nice guy.

We ordered catering for a family party. The food was delicious and the owner even gave us more food than we ordered. We will definitely go back.

Great service. Owner is genuine sweet heart of a guy. The meat is delicious. Highly recommend ordering it.

Have been to sooo many persian/mediterranean restos and this by far serves the best koobideh. Ambiance is homely. Very cool paintings and wall decor. The man servicing me was nice and professional. Would come back again if in the area.
