Came here since I was visiting my friend in the area. I honestly didn't think much of this place but I was blown away. Friendly staff! And the rice pudding in the case was everything. I already told my friend that I want to go back.

I enjoyed the catering from here. Got to try a little bit of everything...some of the best falafel in the game! The shaved chicken was also incredible! Can't speak for the ambiance or service since I only experienced the catering but would love to come here in person!

Incredible Shawarma! It's on par or slightly even better than Shawarma Falafel downtown. You get to select what else you would like inside your shawarma besides the meat/falafel. So you have the option of going authentic with just chicken, pickles, fries, and hummus/garlic No fuss shawarma and incredibly flavorful. Reminds me of Al- baik in Saudia! So so good! All halal

The first time I ever had shawarma was over 10 years ago in the Cambridge/Boston area and I instantly fell in love with it. I think Garlic 'n Lemons is my new favorite place for shawarma in this area. My go-to is the mixed plate with spicy chicken and beef, half rice and half potatoes. The portions are humongous and the garlic sauce is so creamy and flavorful. I love mixing the garlic sauce into the rice and the meat. This is also the first time I see a spicy garlic sauce which also tastes great, but I prefer the regular one.

Love love love this place and love their garlic dip omg. I always get the sharwama plate with rice, bbq chicken and garlic dip and it fills my heart with joy every time. The plate comes in a large portion so I usually have it for two meals. A friend of mine recommended the Arab yogurt drink and it's definitely an acquired taste. The drink is salty and not sweet at all, but it paired well with the food I was eating. I couldn't finish though cause I'm just used to sweeter yogurt drinks. They renovated the interior and have ample indoor seatings. The staff there always look happy and friendly. Highly recommended checking out this place for a quick meal. Food: 9/10 Experience: 9/10 Service: 9/10 Value: 9/10

I stopped in and had the swarmer plate... a lot of food. Easily two meals .. excellent barbecue chicken, beef , salad was fresh and excellent... rice, potatoes, and white garlic tahini sauce ... very cordial staff... even offered me a glass of water with it . Came with pita type bread... I would preferred softer hot pita bread like I usually get at Greek restaurants I frequent... next time I'm going with the salad and chicken swarmer...

This is a solid Mediterranean spot. I tried their spicy beef shawarma plate with fattoush, garlic dip, rice and potatoes, and their spicy garlic sauce. The highlight of the meal was definitely the garlic dip and spicy garlic sauce, which went perfectly with everything! The garlic flavor was super strong. I liked how the spicy garlic sauce had a tanginess to it which balanced out the savory, meaty flavors in the shawarma. The portion was pretty big so I ended up having leftovers. I discovered that the garlic dip completely changes texture when reheated (the oil and garlic split), but it just turned into a very tasty garlic oil. The rice and potatoes were a generous portion but I thought they were just okay. They were good accompaniments to the meat and sauces but were a little plain on their own. We also tried their signature burger which was quite dry and not super impressive. I would much rather get their plates over their burger.

This is some of the better fresh Mediterranean food I have had. I used to come here for lunch monthly, and my office often orders a catered spread from them. Love the swarma and all the sides. Tabouli is dynamite. COVID has been hard for this place, but they are coming back. The whole place has been redone and is a nice dining area. Everything is fresh.
