Shawarma King, a popular Middle Eastern restaurant in the Brookline area, closed its doors on October 28, marking a significant culinary shift for the nearby Boston community. Since its establishment in 1989, the family-run restaurant resided on Beacon Street, gaining a reputation for premier Lebanese offerings, as detailed by NBC Boston.
The Kassab brothers, founders of Shawarma King, originally hailed from Lebanon, seeking to introduce their native cuisine to Boston, as shared on their Yelp page. As the years rolled by, they expanded their menu bringing in other Middle Eastern delicacies, earning a steadfast following.
