Their Moroccan Tagine is tasty – we had it with tofu and another with chicken. Very bright and flavorful, with a nice assortment of veggies. The hummus was also quite tasty. Now, the downside – their vegan chocolate cake was simply awful. But that’s not enough to ruin the meal.

Glad we found them after the move across route 9. Tucked away between Jordans and Bob’s, the falafels are worth the trip. Anytime we’re in the area we stop by to refuel after shopping. The falafels are our ‘go-to’, but next time i’m going to try the thai curry chicken. Have the homemade iced tea too!

I just had the falafel plate at Big Fresh in Framingham. It was delicious — fresh ingredients, unique and tasty hot sauce, good hummus. The mango iced black tea was superb. All in all, an unexpected find behind the Legal Seafood on Rt 9 eastbound in Framingham.

I got The Big Baby salad. It was okay. My order was missing the walnuts, so I had to request some and then the amount I was given was not nearly enough in proportion to the salad itself. The salad was also drowning in dressing, which made the fresh, crisp ingredients soggy and less delicious than they could have been. Also, for the price, it would have been nice if the plate was accompanied by a starch, like bread or pita. My b/f did order a side of falafel, which was delicious, but he was also less than satisfied with his salad, The Big Fresh, and found it pretty bland.

Fresh, healthy dishes full of flavor. This is our go to place in the area for quality ingredients and home-cooked meals. The different sauces are all unique and delicious! You can get a quick wrap or salad to go or sit down and have a plate full of yummy choices. This is our favorite restaurant on this strip of Rt. 9

Although I miss the cozy feel of their old location, I’m happy that they have a lot more seating space now so you can eat without having to rub elbows with strangers. I noticed that they dropped a couple of things off the menu namely the Chicken Taboule which now comes as a wrap. The food still tastes just as good!

Place is quite good. Portion sizes are great for the price. No real complaints. The falafel is worth trying.

I went yesterday and had the Falafel wrap. It was great — I haven’t had falafel in a long time. I had a hard time deciding on what to order because everything sounded delicious. I’m looking forward to going again and trying something different.

Food is amazing and healthy. favorite choice is the salmon wrap! I like to support independent/family business like this, the owner is very friendly, personable. The new location is great too, I definitely recommend to try it out

I’ve only gone there once but I’m so impressed with the BBC tempeh I had to leave five stars! It was perfectly prepared, the presentation was great and the quantity was huge and for an incredibly reasonable price. There aren’t a lot of places like this in the area so I appreciate what they’re doing for anyone trying to eat a healthier or more animal friendly diet!

I’ve loved this place for years! New location is much larger and more pleasant, although it could use some more decorations to give it as much charm as their last location. I actually found that the food is even better now. I always get the falafel, hummus, and salad plate, and the falafel was surprisingly a bit larger and better than ever. Definitely my favorite place to go in the area for amazing food on the cheap.

Simply delicious! Was visiting my cousin who lives in Framingham, and I asked her to pick me up a Falafel Wrap. I’ve had their Falafel Wrap before and remember that it was so good. And it still is! A good portion makes for a fulfilling lunch. Love the taste of everything in it… the falafel, veggies, and sauce. Definitely satisfied my craving.

Horrible ! The service is bad and the food is not healthy at all, I asked for falafel and they give me a salad with a lot of oil and bad hummus

Had the chicken taboule wrap and it was super tasty. Good spice mix, lots of chicken and veggies in a good ratio. Hummus and pita was very traditional you might not be a fan if youre used to store bought. Chocolate cake was a little dry. Service was very fast, very polite. Tons of vegan & carnivore options.

We came here first because they had gluten-free options and my wife has celiac, so all grains are out of question. Fresh has become our weekly place, sometimes twice a week. Really good fish, the chicken teriyaki is awesome. My favourite is the blackened salmon. The quality is consistent and staff is friendly. And it’s independent!

Been here multiple times and it’s undeniably the best wraps and stir fry dishes that I have had. To top it all off, it’s really healthy for you! I always get the Moroccan mint iced tea that they brew and the chicken caesar wrap is delicious. I feel like you can’t go wrong with what they offer, my friends all live the dishes they get as well. It’s a treat!

I’ve been coming here for years! The new location is great, right behind legal seafood/fun n games. Highly recommended. Fast, friendly and FRESH!!! My favorite is the chicken Caesar wrap, my wife loves the chicken taboule and my kids like the chicken meatball wrap. The other dishes always look delicious as well. Many vegetarian choices

Oh Big Fresh, how I love you. EVERYTHING is good here, and you don’t have to feel bad because it’s good for you! I think the teriyaki stir fry is the best, it’s really good. You should get it. I also LOVE their jammy cookies. If I could eat out everyday I would come here. The Falafel is really good too! Ah! Everything’s so good. It’s very fairly priced, you’ll leave feeling happy and full. Also it’s self-service, which I really like. You help yourself to the water/utensils etc… and clean up after yourself.

My favorite place to get lunch in Framingham. You can tell all the ingredients are fresh and I have never had a bad meal at this place. Staff is amazing and friendly I would suggest this to anyone.

As one of the only places that offers good, consistent, vegetarian/vegan food in the suburbs, Big Fresh has kept me happy and fed for a long time. The food is delicious, fresh and makes you feel good. What I find most impressive though is that the food has consistently ALWAYS been good. I’ve never had a bad dish, or one that was any different than the last time. The tempeh special tastes exactly the same/equally delicious EVERY time I get it. Very impressive and hard to find.

Big Fresh is the shizzle — best tasty lunch in and around Natick. The falafel is excellect, the greens super fresh and the hummus almost as good as Al Arabi in Altona. Ask for the hot relish and do not forget the Morrocan mint tea.

Changed locations in October 2015, but it is exactly the same menu as when it was at it’s previous location. The new location is much more pleasant than the cramped old space. it is hard to find a restaurant that at least seems to care about quality of ingredients, and this is one of the few. Food is tasty enough, but really i go here because it is one of the few places that serves ‘healthy’ food. My other short list in the same price category is Wholefoods buffet and Chipotle. Everybody else seems to have little interest in the quality of ingredients.

The food was fresh and flavorful. Delicious! Totally casual which made for a great dinner with our 4 yr old. We had the salmon dinner, cod dinner and the falafel salad plate. Can’t wait to go back. It’s tucked away behind Legal Seafoods; definitely go and find this place!

Best Falafel and Hummus period. I have been a big fan of Big Fresh and a regular and now it has moved to a new location that is much bigger. Their organic foods are delicious and nutritious, just the right combination of healthy and tasty. Falafel wrap is my favorite but tried most of the other menu items and I liked them all. As the name indicates everything not just Fresh but Big Fresh. If you are in the Framingham area make sure to give them a visit it will not be disappointing.

Big Fresh is a gem of a restaurant, especially compared to the many chain restaurants available on rt. 9. The food is not only delicious, but healthy and fresh. The fact that this terrific food is available at such a reasonable price in a casual setting makes it even better. The falafel wrap is great for lunch, and the stirfrys are perfect for dinner. My personal favorite is the Thai curry, but the spicy peanut noodle dish is a close second. I always receive enough food to bring home leftovers. Now that they have moved to their spacious new location, I recommend them even more highly. If you have not visited Big Fresh by now, you’re missing out!

The best fast-casual place in Metro West. Delicious and nutritious falafel, seafood, chicken and other Mediterranean dishes in a counter-service format. Food prepared fresh to order, and service is always fast and friendly. Their last location was tricky because of heavy lunchtime crowds, but the new space is big and beautiful. Favorite dishes are falafel wrap and the salmon and cod entrees.
