It's a great store with variety of goods from middle East and Eurasia. The owner is super friendly and helpful to guide you through similar items. They have specific meat and veggies as well as dairies,grains and microwaveable food. It's a good little place if you are from that part of the world or simply enjoy some changes in your spice cabinet.

I would like to thank Mr. Mohammad the shop owner for his courtesy to his customers and the quality of his products. I have been coming to Atlas market for well over past 10 years to shop for halal meat and other items and I always have received the best halal meat and great customer service.

Best place for halal meats! The most kind people to see as often as you are in the market. AlhamdAllaah that we have them close to many cities in the greater Boston area.

I would really recommend their pies. They make it fresh for you. You could also call to order. They also make Shawarma and falafel sandwiches! Their hummus is as authentic as it gets. And above all, their kindness says it all. They have fresh halal meat, arabic groceries, etc! There is a 2 hr parking on the opposite side of the street and 15 min parking in front of the store. Would definitely recommend. They also cater food!

Atlas is one of the hidden local gems. Every time you visit, you will be surprised with a new thing. Their kitchen provides authentic home made food. The Fatyra lahmah they provide is the best I tried here in the US so far. Mohamad and Ayman are so friendly and treat their customers as if it was a neighborhood local market in Syria (كانها دكان الحاره). Always Mohamad gives me high quality meat that fit the best the thing I am planning to cook. If you throw a party over the weekend or having guests over, they will catering you table with home made authentic food.

Update 2024: the business is under new management. There's no longer a Halal butcher here, just a restaurant and limited groceries. The new owner is Brazilian and they still carry Halal chicken and beef but the menu also has pork items now like chorizo and pork bacon. Cross contamination is likely, for people that are concerned about that. I used to go here for meat when I lived in the area. The quality of the meat was always good but it was a bit of a hole in the wall. A good local butcher none the less, particularly since he stocks goat too. Oh, and once in a while they have Halal pastrami and other deli meats which are incredible. I happened to visit recently and they had started serving food. So I decided to try a couple of items. They had a 5.99 deal on cheese burgers and for that price, you get a 1-inch thick beef burger with two slices of cheese and lettuce and tomatoes. It's not a gourmet burger by any means, but if you're all about the meat, let me tell you, this burger is satisfying. The main downside here is the atmosphere, things seem even more run-down than the used to be in earlier years, but the staff is super friendly and take-out is a great option. Also, call ahead or order online since they make everything fresh.
