Walking into this place, I KNEW this was going to be amazing. The smells alone are phenomenal, and you can tell that the crew working here are deeply invested in the restaurant (including the owner, who seemed to be working the grill at the time).
Food portions were very reasonably sized, and the food! Absolutely phenomenal. I'm bummed that I don't live closer - I would easily come here at least a few times a month if I were local to MA. Instead, I'm hoping to just tell other folks about it.
I'm a pretty big foodie and have traveled extensively. Everything here was cooked to perfection, tender but roasted and super flavorful. And even side dishes of veggies, or additional things like tomatoes, lettuce, and avocados, were clearly at the peak of ripeness. I hate when you've got a phenomenal sandwich.... with lackluster tomatoes and sad greens. None of that here.
I got the chicken gyro melt and had to get a second one to bring some home to my wife, because I couldn't just keep this to myself. Highly recommend. Definitely a hidden gem/hole in the wall. My only disappointment was that their wifi wasn't working at the time, but that wasn't even worth dinging them a star.

This place is so friendly, and is always busy with takeout orders. If you want to dine in though, there are some places to sit by the windows.
I will be back! The lamb burger was extremely good.

A simple 'mom n pop' restaurant serving the most authentic Greek delicacies.
Do try their Tsatziki - it is simply the best with homemade pita! I tried the lamb with roasted veggies and it was delicious. The lamb burger is the restaurant recommended dish, it looks like. Saw a lot of people ordering it.
The ambience is very casual with indoor and outdoor seating. The staff are very friendly and make the dish to your preference. Pricing is moderate and there is limited parking available. You will have to park on the street when it gets busy. This tiny hole in the wall deserves a lot of praise. Do try it if you are in the Boston area.
Will I return? : Heck yeah!
I enjoyed the very best lamb burger I have ever had here! The staff are friendly and hard-working, the food is fresh and delicious, and they cooked my burger to a perfect medium rare. I absolutely will be back to sample more of their dishes.

If anyone is in the mood for Greek then My Other Kitchen is a must! I have to say, the quality of the food is above par for what you pay and the staff are very friendly. It has a trendy “indoor food truck”, vibe with the sounds and amazing smells of cooked food so close to you. The quality and taste is a reflection of the love and hard work George and his team put into every meal. The place is super clean (restroom too), even though it’s packed and busy. Greek music playing in the background adds additional charm to a great meal. I highly encourage you to check it out, either dine in or order out!
Superiorly delicious, healthy, and reasonably priced is how I would describe the food at My Other Kitchen most concisely. Their Greek salad with chicken souvlaki is addictively good - it goes great with George's pita bread. Their hamburger tastes better than any burger I have had elsewhere, even at much higher prices! I highly recommend this place for takeout, but they also have limited seating inside and bigger tables outside in the warmer months.

This is probably the greatest brunch in Boston and I am torn whether to post:
There is no alcohol, it’s not that kind of brunch.
There are no 20-somethings cackling and instagramming their food.
It isn’t a cool location or fancy looking.
So why is it great? You can’t make an omelette this good. You can’t get the crispy + soft texture on hash browned potatoes. You can’t make a decent cup of coffee freshly brewed.
The people are super nice. It’s reasonably priced and I can’t believe I’m telling you about this.
Oh man this place is so good. Super fresh food, great flavors, very nice staff. Really nice outdoor seating with umbrellas. Only negative is the small, tight parking lot. This is my new go to place near Belmont center.
Maybe the best Greek food in an area filled with food Greek food choices, this is a special place. We almost always order take out as there isn't a ton of seating and your sitting roadside with what's there but it's not a bad experience when the weather is nice. And besides, no matter where you're eating it this is the best Greek food in the area, hands down. Love My Other Kitchen and can't wait for the next visit!!

Food was good and service was better. But the atmosphere is not to my liking at all. Very little space, uncomfortable seating, and very cold in winter. I recommend getting takeout.
