Eater Survey: The Boston Restaurants That Really Stepped Up for Their Communities in 2022 - Eater Boston
"The new Omar’s Bistro in Lexington is doing tremendous things by hiring people with special needs. Omar himself has Down syndrome and he and his family have really done something special here with the comic book shop, video game lounge, and now the restaurant." - Erika Adams
Super friendly and surprisingly good quality despite the low price. Everything tastes handmade including the ketchup! Quirky in a good way.

Outlaw. Ghostbuster. Original. DM.
The burgers we had were good but not as great as I would have imagined given the reviews. Taste was sort of bland. We could taste the fresh ingredients and the house made ketchup was great. I was hoping the ghostbuster had some sort of heat but it was very bland.
Service was excellent and the atmosphere was very kid friendly.

What a true gem. I wish I would have taken a picture. My wife had the DM and I had the mushroom burgers. They appear to be smash burgers and were cooked to perfection. I loved the homemade ketchup with the fries. I cannot wait to go back. What a great place for the kids in the community too. That said, do not expect fine dining. You are eating in a comic book store with square tables. But that is what makes it unique. I love the Maine natural soda too.

Unique atmosphere. Food was quite nice overall for excellent value. We liked the burgers and fries.
It's a self serve place, so you order at the counter, set up your own table with the things they provide, and they bring the food to you.

Got the DM burger with the Poutine X. The food was delicious and was a really great portion. I didn't need to finish it all, but I couldn't stop myself because it was so good.
Fries are thin cut, and they're served with a homemade ketchup that's excellent as well. You can tell they're using quality ingredients for everything. And their soda fountain is Maine Roots! Strongly recommend

Poutine was way too salty but the guy who took my order was incredibly sweet and I love the concept of this bookstore/restaurant. It was also very clean and tidy. I’ll definitely be back!

I ordered a burger with beef bacon, and it was the best burger I’ve had in ages! The staff were really welcoming and the food came quickly. I’m planning to go back soon with my nieces

A really lovely comic/game shop/arcade/game space/restaurant.
The staff were so courteous and friendly, the food was great, and the media on offer was a nice selection. We even got to meet Omar himself; he was so pleased to see us, and told us a joke :)
