AJEEN

Worst gyro meat I've ever seen. It literally had the texture of a tortilla chip. We ordered two gyro amd rice plates and had to throw away all of the meat. It's a shame because the rest of the food was ok, not great, but ok.

I’ve been coming here pretty consistently over the last year. It’s really one of few options open for take out after midnight. That being said the wraps are downright insulting. I appreciate that they bread is freshly made but the way the kebabs are prepared are insulting and the portion is miniscule. I won’t deny the flavor is good but it’s barely got any meat inside. I gave 4 stars for the service because the Latino guys behind the counter are friendly and polite. But the patrons (not sure if they are family or what) are pretty rude and cold. They monopolize the restaurant and it feels like customers are intruding. I found a man’s cellphone and attempted to return it to the counter and some Lebanese guy snatched it out of my hand without even saying thanks. I guess it’s the employees of the hookah bar that act like the own the place. Another thing the atmosphere is truly bizarre. It’s silent. There’s no music no tv no one having a conservation. It’s just a very uncomfortable experience overall. I don’t plan on returning.

I was pretty disappointed after seeing the reviews and being excited to try this place. I think I had about 1-2oz of meat on my meal and the rice was somewhat stale. It was $17 for very little food. I was pretty surprised when I got home and saw how little the meal was.

Always very friendly service and great food. I used to come here sometimes but then my Lebanese Neighbors a few years ago told me about going there all the time (and their hours are hard to beat!), and now I come more often Tastier and healthier late night options compared to fast food and a lot of other local places in the area. Definitely some of the best Hummus in Boston (fresh warm bread with it was also amazing). Extremely good round flatbread dishes. I have not had as much of the regular pizza but everyone says it's good.

I was fairly disappointed with my food at this place after hearing about it by word of mouth and seeing the reviews here. I made an online order and arrived a few minutes before the time on the order; the restaurant had not appeared to start on the order before I arrived. Of the three flatbread we ordered, only one was good (hence the second star): the thyme flatbread with black olives (upcharge) had good seasoning, and was memorable. The meat pie had a paucity of meat on it; the cheese flatbread ended up a little gummy for my taste. I grew up on Cedar's Bakery flatbread in Houston, and the flatbread here unfortunately did not hold a candle to that restaurant.

I was craving some manakish on Sunday and went to Ajeen. I had the cheese flatbread and it was so good. Would definitely come back.

Super friendly staff. Had the cheese and meat wraps, both but especially the meat were super dry with barely any meet on them. For a $8.5 each, I expected a lot more meat/cheese on my wraps.

I love the food at Ajeen. I miss the old menu before they rebranded zaatar as thyme and added pizza, but I understand they're probably trying to get more of the late night crowd. The service here is abysmally slow. I was in last weekend, my girlfriend and I the only ones there. It took 35 minutes for us to get our food, which was only a couple items. One of which came out five minutes before the next. I have no idea why it took so long. The girl behind the counteralso didn't seem to know if she should ring us up before or after we ate? It was very bizarre. I like the food but keep this in mind if you're on a schedule.

I got the gyro wrap and a cheese pizza flatbread. For starters, some of the best seasoned oof I've had in Boston, hands down. The pizza had a nice mix of herbs on the mozzarella and the dough was also surprisingly flavorful. The gyro was about as standard as a gyro as you can get anywhere, but again the seasoning in the sauce and meat was perfect. Near everything was made fresh for me (at 3pm) except the pizza which was clearly recently made and still heated up nicely for me. I got my food quickly as well, especially for only one worker running the whole place. It was a very nice meal and I would go again. Price wasn't too bad for the gyro either - around 12 bucks after tax and if you've ever gotten a gyro in the past two years you'll know that is around a buck less than average for anyone but street vendors. Overall would recommend, will visit again.

Ordered: Zaatar & Cheese Flatbread (~$8) Aya's take: Being Lebanese myself, I love a good manousheh (aka flatbread) and didn't expect to see a place making them here in Boston. The Zaatar & Cheese Flatbread was made fresh. The zaatar was nicely spiced and slightly sweet which I'm not used to, the cheese they use is mozzarella which isn't traditional, and the dough is super thin crust which is also not traditional. Zaatar is typically earthy, nutty, and lemony from the oregano and sumac and the cheese should've been Akawi cheese. The dough should also be slightly thicker and fluffier. It would've been nice if they did the Zaatar on one side and the Cheese on the other side. We saw the table next to us get their's that way and I wish it was offered to us like that as that's my preferred option. Nonetheless, decent try and always happy to support an Arab business!

Love the food here! Delicious Service is fast! They make fresh bread. We ordered Zaatar flatbread and chicken wrap. They were good I recommend this place if you would like to try Halal food.

The serving size was a little on the smaller side and the wait for my order (only one Zaatar) was long even though nobody was there... Even though I could really taste the spice, it was so dry and overdone that it became very difficult to eat. Would not go again.

They make the wrap for the gyros and for the flatbread fresh for every order, wowza!! The fresh dough is so delicious! I've only been there at odd hours I suppose (so there was no line) and it was very fast service. The gyro fillings have also been very juicy and the cheese/zatar flatbread very flavorful.

They are good with some pastries and appetizers, but not that much with kebabs. I would say it's okay to try!

Amazing food and staff! Best flatbreads in Boston. I truly recommend this place to everyone.

Nice people and good kebab. Hard to find quality stuff outside where I have been in europe. Excited to check out there hookah lounge!

Manakeesh are great!!! The cheese is amazing! Service was excellent. Pleaaasseee bring back the SOUJOUK

Came here for lunch for the first time. They are a small shop but have plenty outdoor seating ! They also provide samples (when available) they warm up by the slice for you to try and that's what ultimately led us to deciding on our dishes. I got the Zatar and cheese my boyfriend got the Soujouk and cheese with a side of Baba Ghannouj and hummus tip: the portions are large ( so we ended up taking home some leftovers) Everything was fresh out the oven and delicious ! A must try the prices are fairly affordable and worth the portion and flavor you get.

Food was good overall, but I felt as though it was lacking a bit of spice/flavor. We tried both the Chicken Schwarma wrap and fire grilled gyros wrap, and they didn't meet our expectations in terms of other Lebanese restaurants we've tried. Great option if you're in a rush, but I wouldn't go out of my way to eat here. I rated 4 stars because the staff was super nice and provided fabulous service.

I saw other reviewers recommending the soujouk and cheese flatbread so I had to try it for myself. It was so delicious! I was initially worried that there wouldn't be much sausage or cheese but I was pleasantly surprised that the flatbread was nicely stuffed. There was lots of cheese, sausage, tomatoes, pickles, lettuce, and a delicious, tangy, slightly spicy sauce. I thought the flavor profile was quite unique. The bread itself was so flavorful and had the perfect amount of char to it. For $11 on the delivery app this was a good deal! Their other flatbreads are cheaper in price. I look forward to trying more of their menu items. This place is connected to House of Shawarma (flatbread AND shawarma?! Yum) and you can also order some grocery items.

Yesterday, I waited over 25 minutes for my food. Meanwhile, a large group of people who arrived after me ordered and began being served. I asked why my order was taking so long (after 15 minutes they hadn't even started it), they said "There are a lot of orders." When I pointed out that I had ordered earlier than those being served, the staff literally shrugged. Last time I ate here, it took nearly 20 minutes for my food (a simple wrap) to be prepared, and I was the only one in the restaurant. I will be honest-- the food is really good. The service is shockingly bad. I get it, mistakes happen, but a little contrition and an acknowledgement that I was being inconvenienced would have assured my continued patronage. Instead, I was made to feel like I was being an annoyance. I'd rather support a friendlier business

Ajeen offers traditional Middle Eastern flatbreads that are hard to find at most places. They not only offer the more traditional options, but they've created a fun twist by making the flatbreads into sandwiches. All the bread is made fresh on site when you place an order. And all of their meats are halal. Ajeen has very close vibes to Manakish in Philadelphia. Everything is honestly really good, so if you follow personal preference you'll land on a good option. We really enjoyed the chicken and soujouk sandwiches. Prices are fair, portions are good, and they offer indoor and outdoor seating.

Ajeen is DELICIOUS. Freshly baked flatbread. Spiced lamb kebabs. Every ingredient is fresh and amazing. These wraps were so much more enjoyable than the standard shwarma pita wraps since they are toasty warm from inside to out. The lamb not only was tender and falling apart, but it was nicely seasoned with herbs and juicy. I was pleasantly surprised, you will be too!

I wanted to like Ajeen and went into it with an open mind, generally I love the cuisine, but I wouldn't recommend it. food/service were both not great.. My bf got the mixed platter which he did not enjoy. I got the falafel platter, it was ok.! We shared a lahmajun flatbread, but were a bit disappointed when we saw that they were all pre-made just waiting to be reheated. We placed an order in the restaurant for takeout. When I asked if I could change my order (they have an amazingly big menu so I was pretty indecisive!), they accepted, but they never offered to refund us the difference when we ended up getting a less expensive item. Overall, I am not sure it's worth it for the price, but there are a lot of options on the menu so...give it a try and see!

Like someone else (I saw too late) I got the veggie flatbread. It was literally tomatoes and barely cooked mostly raw onions. That is it. On admittedly tasty bread. Mine also didn't come with a red pepper paste but I did not ask. I just forced it down because I was starving. Everything else may be okay. I don't know. But the veggie flatbread is terrible. No wonder it didn't have an image online it's embarrassing.

Super cute place with great service and decent prices. A zaatar pita is $4.50, or $5 and change including tax. It's super herby and not salty at all, a great vehicle for toppings or just a snack on its own. The owners are very nice and the bread gets heated up on the spot so it's perfect to snack on on the way home on a chilly evening. I forgot to get a picture, but I will definitely be back!

This spot was recommended to us through a friend and we were so happy we tried it out! We were able to place our orders online which saved us time when we went into the store. The menu is clear and the website is easy to use. The employees were very friendly and helpful and had our orders ready for us! Their variety of flatbreads that we tried were muhamara, muhamara with cheese, soujoukh, lahm ajeen, zaatar, zaatar and cheese and they were absolutely delicious. The dough was perfectly cooked and the spices were perfect. The lemon and pepper on the lahmajun made the flatbread taste phenomenal. Coming from an Armenian background this was truly a taste of home. We can't wait to go back!

After having an order from another restaurant cancelled at 9pm tonight, we scrambled to find another restaurant that was still open. Luckily we found Ajeen! They're open late! We ordered the Soujouk and cheese flatbread, mouhammara flatbread, kebab plate and a side of babaghannouj. Order came pretty quickly within 30 minutes. Food was warm and fresh. All of the the bread was so fresh and tasty! Mouhammara was great, soujouk and cheese flatbread delicious, kafta kebab and baba ghannouj very flavorful. All food tasted great. We were so hungry, that I forgot to take a picture, so this is what was left of the food after we had eaten lol! Really great food, highly recommend them. Will definitely order again.

Great concept and great food. The zaatar with labne, mint and olives is so good. All the food is unbelievably fresh and greay

Ajeen is my go-to spot in Allston! I love this place for its authentic Lebanese shawarma, kebab wraps and za'atar. Za'atar flatbread - trying this changed my life! Seriously, because I bought it almost every day after for a month. It's the perfect snack for after-school stress because it has a healthy amount of oil and the flavors are so strong. I like to think of this as a healthier version of pizza because I watch them pull it out of the brick oven! Kebab flatbread - this huge wrap is filled with flavorful beef and lamb slices that melt in your mouth. I am genuinely taken aback by how much flavor is in each bite every time I order this. Soujouk and cheese flatbread - Okay, this wrap is HUGE. and MESSY. in the best way possible. It's so saucy, and the cheese pairs perfectly with the sausage that is stuffed inside! Pickles add a sweet and sour flavor to the profile. Overall, love this flatbread. Hummus & Baba Ganoush - I've tried an order of each, and prefer the baba ganoush more for its perfect smoked garlic flavor. The hummus is also delicious and refreshing-- just not as good as the baba ganoush. Each comes with pita on the side. 5 stars because the food is amazing, but also because the workers are so kind and honest about their menu! I will always vouch for this place :)

Great Lebanese flatbreads at a great price! We walked in during their soft opening, and were lucky enough to get some free samples before we picked what we wanted. Ended up getting the Zaatar and Mouhammara with a side of Baba Ghannouj. Both flatbreads were great, with plenty of toppings so they are definitely worth the cheap price! Baba Ghannouj tasted very fresh, definitely homemade. Everyone in there was happy to answer our questions! We may have to go back again today. They also give extra pita for free if you order a side sauce!

On aime Adjeen et surtout les pita cheese! Et on peut voir le pita cheese qui cuit! Signé Joseph

Great service. They gave us a free dessert and the food was bomb! Highly recommend!!!

Amazing gyros and flat breads. Across the board high quality with amazing service. The management here knows how to take care of their customers. Highly recommend.

I ordered a gyro wrap. First, the wrap was baked fresh, which is a total game changer for this kind of food. The gyro meat was flavorful and the salad and pickles (including pickled turnips!) were fresh and plentiful. Friendly staff. Extremely satisfying and I shall return!

Visiting the area for work and I was craving something Lebanese. I found this little bakery on apple maps and had to give it a shot. Needless to say I loved this place. Doesn't get more authentic mom and pop than this. The fresh smell of zaatar when you walk in was what did it for me and I knew this place was going to be good. Food was wonderful and tasted like home. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a quick bite. Service was very quick and the staff was welcoming, friendly and open to conversation. Definitely a hole in the wall place but that's what makes this hidden gem so much better. You will walk out of there wishing there was a location closer to you.

Falafel nice and fresh. Hummus very simple and delicious Will defiantly order from here again.

Quick and easy finger food served well with decent prices. However, the menu doesn't satisfy a wide variety of Mediterranean cravings.

Ordered chicken Sharma toasted wrap. It hit the spot. You have to get spicy mayo trust me

I have absolutely no idea how this place gets good ratings. I did their "too good to go" deal today for four dollars and received 3/4 of a cheese flatbread. There wasn't very much cheese and the crust was hard. It's supposed to be a $12 value, but I don't think it was worth even two dollars. Definitely not going back.

Ordered Zaatar and Labneh. Really good food. Tasted quite authentic. Finding parking was a little difficult. They are open late so great for midnight food!

No joke. Amazing. Truly impressed. My gyro was delicious, the whipped garlic was delicious. Truly one for the books, and I'm very hard to impress.

Got take out from this new spot for a date night. Really excited to try a new cuisine we don't do too much of. The Za'atar bread was delicious and well seasoned. My girl's falafel wrap was huge and she enjoyed it, my chicken wrap was good, but I felt a little salty for my taste and I would have enjoyed it served hot weather than almost as a salad. All in all a good new spot for the neighborhood

previously ordered Uber eats from here and it was phenomenal, went today for a pickup order and both items were completely wrong. I ordered two lamb wraps with cheese and ended up getting a chicken shawarma wrap and a dif wrap w olives and mint (unfortunately I hate olives). I believe they probably mixed up my order with someone else's and put it into the bag w my name/order on it, unfortunately I didn't realize until I was already home. they tasted alright but pretty annoyed since I was looking forward to my custom order and also paid quite a bit for my modifiers. unfortunately would not order again :(

I seldom leave reviews, but I felt like I had to. I had a flatbread at Ajeen a few weeks ago which was great-- a cheap, quick and easy late night option. However, i just ordered a gyro plate online, and not only was it horribly packed, but it was absolutely not worth the $15 it cost. It came with no tzatziki, literally just dry meat, some pita, and the driest rice I've ever had. The two experiences clashed so greatly that it doesn't even make sense.

This is the best pita bread ive ever had. I came two days ago and couldn't get enough. I live an hour away but i came back today for more. Thank you gabriella for being the sweetest server. I will be back again.

They make their bread, fresh in the over. The falafel, chicken, and lamb all of it are really great. Great service and very clean. Their Zaatar is a bit oily but REALLY good. Price is very reasonable.

Got delivery from here and the sandwich/roll up was fine but the container of baba ghanoush was fizzy - almost fermented it had gone bad it seems like for days. They need to implement a better system for throwing away product that no one has bought. Very disappointing.

So fresh and so authentic. Bread is cooked in less than 7 minutes! We enjoyed 4 different flatbreads "ajeens" and took some home!

absolutely mid. They overcharge and re use food from the past day. hard no

Phenomenal food, the falafel wrap was 10/10 and followed right after with the gyro. Best part of our experience the costumer service they went above and beyond. Will definitely come back

THE BEST FOOD IN BRIGHTON (& best bang for your buck) really nice guys. and a points system for free meals

Ajeen is hands down the most delicious manoushe spot in Boston! The bread is delicious and baked to perfection, they are generous with the zaatar and toppings, and their prices are amazing. I highly recommend Ajeen, especially if you're craving manaeesh!

This place is awesome and the food is amazing! I could eat here everyday. The service is friendly, and the ambiance is warm and welcoming.

Owner was extremely nice. Offered us every option under the sun. Gave us a free flatbread as a show of hospitality. The food was also amazing. 10/10 would recommend as a fast casual dinner or lunch. It is also open until 3 am to satisfy the drunk crowd.

Ate here yesterday for my son's birthday meal. Everything was terrific. I got the chicken shawarma platter with fatoosh and rice and both my sons' tried the mixed(beef and chicken) shawarma platters. We also got baba ganoosh, labnee, and kibbee. So good! Try it.

So underwhelming , 17$ gets you 2 small pieces of meat and some cheap extras. Really disappointed coming here. Salad pieces were a little brown. I've been to other halal places that are much better
