“ Great food! Had the grilled meat and chicken, all the salatim were delicious (schug is really good but it’s hiding). Even my picky daughter loved the falafel and asked to go back. ”

“ Fantastic hidden gem. I was driving by for the last couple of months. Last night, we finally stopped and tried it out. We ordered takeout which was fantastic. A lot of flavor, very fresh. It's a family operated business. Certainly a great new addition for Brookline. They also have 5 tables in case you want to eat directly there rather than having takeout. ”
“ Great small family Mediterranean cuisine. We ordered a family dinner from Zaatar. It was delicious, the service was excellent and the deserts awesome. I loved the pita with Schnitzel with the tasty Hummus. The salads are great, fresh Hummus:) There are only few tables to dine in so consider to take out. ”
