    Everything was excellent and our waitress was very attentive. It was a special night as celebrating an anniversary. I chose this restaurant as my 91 yr old mum had never been here. She loved it as much as much as me and my husband! Lamb shank, moussaka and stuffed cabbage all delicious!

    We had higher expectations since the people we went with had been before and they thought it was really good and decent value. Sadly, none of us fully felt that last night. The food was ok but a bit overpriced for what we got. Dinner for 4, sharing one small mediocre appetizer of grape leaves, and 3/4 of us had one cocktail, dinner with tip came to $225. We would have typically felt that was fine, but one of the dinners was a salad with shrimp that only came with three medium sized shrimp and another was a lamb dish with about 6 small pieces of lamb in a sauce. The shish kebab dishes were decent sized. It was an ok dinner, the staff was nice and definitely competent and the atmosphere was pleasant. They supposedly will be having their live music start up again in October which will add to the value in my mind.

    Wonderful first visit and we all enjoyed the food immensely. The stuffed cabbage, eggplant moussaka and beef skewer were all delish and portions are huge! We shall return.

    I had a wonderful dining experience at Al Wadi. The food was incomparable, the personal oversight of the manager Ms. Nadine Samaha made the experience even more unique. I don't think I will have to think twice again where to take my guests out for dinner.

    Outstanding food—the best Middle Eastern food in Boston—with excellent ambiance and service. Don’t miss their Lebanese wine offerings, either. One of my favorite spots in the greater Boston area. And plenty of parking makes it easy !
