It took me awhile to get on here but it’s time. I am blown away by the efforts this company is making to remain meat free. My complaints with them is cooking consistency. I visit the Westford location weekly. Sometimes twice and it’s a 50/50 shot whether or not my order will be cooked correctly. I’ve had side dishes like the curried carrots and the carrots were hard as a rock. Potatoes that were too hard or too soggy. The falafel balls are now almost guaranteed to be hard and over cooked every time I go. To the point of almost chipping teeth several times.
This is due to the fact that the falafel balls are wayyyy to small to even be consider falafel. I get that this is supposed to be a modest portioned meal. Which is completely fine, but it would be better to serve three medium sized falafels so you can actually taste the ingredients and not charred deep fried batter.

I’ve been a pescatarian for over 2 decades. It’s certainly difficult to find places that own their vegetarian menus vs it’s being one item at the bottom of side dish menu at most establishments.

And for the same price at clover I’m getting microscopic deep fried batter balls with side dishes that make your stomach rumble afterwards.
I never quite felt right after eating their food and my husband can vouch the grand differences in cost and quality.
Farewell friends. It...

Original review: Normally a big fan of this place, but big warning: don't come anywhere near closing time. I was here at 7.55pm which is an hour before the store closes, and five minutes before Clover closes. (I find that in itself odd as well). The woman behind the counter was rude and told me they were closed. She looked annoyed that I even came over to the counter. It felt like she just couldn't be bothered to help one more customer tonight. Clover was one of my two favorite healthy, fast options in Westford. From now on it looks like Oki Poke will be holding that down for...
