Read moreIt was my first time at Boustan and the workers were very nice and generous with the portions! Highly recommend the beef shawarma pita and the garlic potatoes! They prepared my order quickly and the food was very fresh even though it was close to 9pm when I ordered.
Edit: Disappointed this time. I ordered two plates and asked the worker if he made sure to put the pita in the bag. He said yes. I got home and we opened up the takeout and we found that only one of the plates had a pita. Also, they forgot both of the drinks that I had bought!! Really disappointed since we had a good experience the first time.
Edit 2: I went back to grab 2 plates last night, and it seems maybe the owner was there? Which I think increased the quality of service.

This plate costs 20$, and on top of that, they do not wear any gloves, which is disappointing and no hairnets specific for their beards, which is very gross. It is clean ish but the only Boustan close while away from home, so.. it is unfair, and just because it happens in a row doesn't mean it is my fault nor that I'd be lying like, please. Other than that, they are nice people, and the other times before the past 2 have been okay. I was willing to take a photo of it to show them, but they responded to me with an attitude, so I hung up and try to purchase at other...
