Reef Cafe in Allston Is Closed

Reef Cafe, a Lebanese restaurant located in the heart of Allston, is just the latest Boston-area restaurant to close its doors. The friendly little spot on Brighton Street shut down around January 1, making it that much tougher to find a good Middle Eastern restaurant in the Boston area.

A perfect place for college students and others looking for fresh, healthy cheap eats, Reef Cafe had some outstanding dishes, including a tremendous falafel sandwich that was made with falafel balls, tomatoes, yellow peppers, pickles, and tahini sauce.

We will personally miss Reef Cafe very much. It was certainly one of our favorite Middle Eastern restaurants in the Boston area.
