This place is a Mecca for live music in New England, but the food is SO underrated. Get the chicken kebab plate lunch special.

"Prices have gone up, but it's still a bargain; open until 3am for all of the late night cravings as well! They pre-cook the falafel, but it's the best I've had in Boston.. Go for the falafel roll-up !"
Allegra Flores - 7.2
