"Opened on February 22 in the former Black Jack Pasta Bar space at 52 Queensberry St., this newcomer brings a brick-and-mortar version of a well-known Mediterranean food truck that has long parked in the Fenway. The menu focuses on classic Mediterranean fare—shawarma, falafel, and chicken served as wraps or plates—with rotating “dish of the day” specials (examples include green beans with lamb on Mondays and kabsa with chicken on Saturdays), and sides like hummus, rice, baba ghanoush, and fattoush salad. The truck is seasonal and is off the road for winter, slated to resume service April 1; the restaurant is closed on Sundays. Located near Thaitation and M&J Teriyaki and close to Peterborough Street’s restaurant row, it joins a rapidly expanding Fenway dining scene that will also see additions such as Time Out Market and new openings from notable chefs later this year." - Dana Hatic
