I usually really like ghormeh sabzi. Ordered it here and there was an absurd amount of oil on top of the stew. Tried skimming it and using paper towels, but it was impossible bc of how much oil was in there. What’s in the photo wasn’t even a quarter of it. Maybe their other dishes are better

I visited this restaurant based on a friend’s recommendation, and it was my first time trying Persian cuisine. I had dishes that included chicken, beef, lamb, and rice, and it was a fantastic experience. The flavors of the food were generally very satisfying.
The baklava I had for dessert at the end was incredibly sweet and delicious. The server was also very friendly and provided excellent guidance.

my only gripe is the way i got charged. this koobideh was absolutely delicious and juicy. the rice was amazing, i love the dill and lima beans. the seating outside on a nice weather day was fun until the bees kept smelling my floral perfume lol. the ambiance inside is also nice so wasn’t an issue to move inside. our server was very sweet and hospitable. my only thing is they need a koobideh combo plate on the menu, that’s a staple at all the persian restaurants. since they don’t have one here, she placed an order for one beef koobideh a la carte, one chicken, and the rice but the total was $24 instead of the $19 plate where you get two beef koobideh and that makes no sense because sirloin is more expensive than chicken. the plate also didn’t come with a grilled tomato or lavash bread on the side. she was sweet in bringing sumac and butter and raw onion after i asked for sumac. but next time i need them not to overcharge for ordering it separate like that or get the koobideh beef plate and one a la carte chicken koobideh so that the value is worth the cost.

We love this place!
Juicy kabobs, lots of rice, grilled tomatoes. Mmmm Mmm good.
We looked for a place in the Boston area to satisfy a craving for Mediterranean food. We found the place here at Mediterranean Grill.
We ordered hummus, and the platter for 2.
There is so much great food that is included in the platter for 2. All of the food is freshly made.
Service was outstanding.
Great food. Superb service. Walkable distance to the Davis T-stop on the Red line. Kudos to the restaurant for the food and the service.
Enjoy!

Delicious food! Very freshly made.
We had the Mirza ghasemi, falafel plate, shrimp kabob and chicken kabob tasted out of the world 🙂 Don’t forget to try their rich creamy Persian ice cream if you like pistachios.

Delicious Persian food, tahdiq (fried bread and rice at the bottom of pot) which the sell covered in either gheyme or ghorme sabzi is very delicious and a large portion. Also Koobide kabab was very delicious. I wish they would add half gheyime and half ghorme to their Tahdiq, like they do in California and Texas, but they don’t. They serve Tahdiq with only one sauce and it is still VERY AMAZING. The waiter, Isma, was also very nice, professional and had a superb hospitality. We will definitely go back for more.

This Mediterranean restaurant is a great find! I tried it for the first time while visiting Boston for the marathon, and both the service and food were exceptional. The spinach pie and grape leaves plate were particularly delicious. The have a large menu selection. The only downside is the dressing on the salad was extremely salty. Though I still recommend this place!

Mediterranean Grill was a solid choice for a casual bite. The food had all the right flavors, but nothing that really stood out. Service was friendly and quick. Overall, it’s a reliable spot for Mediterranean staples, but don’t expect anything surprising.
