“This place has such a fun and energetic atmosphere, with techno music and creative, artsy décor that gives it a unique personality. It's a great spot to hang out, enjoy a meal, and soak in the lively vibe. The shawarmas are absolutely delicious and easily some of the best I've had. The food is consistently fresh, flavorful, and served quickly. The staff are incredibly kind, welcoming, and provide excellent service every time. Between the amazing food, fast service, and one-of-a-kind atmosphere, this is a place I would happily recommend to anyone looking for outstanding shawarma.”

“I came here after landing in Chicago because I always crave a cheeseburger after flying, and their burgers looked great, but I was intrigued by the Ukrainian style shawarma (chicken with cabbage, tomatoes, pickles, and mayo-garlic sauce) and it was *so* good. Absolutely hit the spot, and their back garden was a wonderful place to sit, unwind and recharge after a long day of travel. Nest decor, friendly staff and pretty good fries too!”

“Great shawarma! I had the chicago one and it was delicious! The atmosphere is crazy, I love it!”

“The best shawarma i have ever try, they also have burgers bet it’s the best in US”

“Amazing fun vibe with techno and artsy decor. Shwarma and burger were great, portions generous. Enjoyed the little vodka shots. Loved having alcohol options besides cans. Would def recommend & return”

“The sweet burger was very good for the most part; chips seemed a bit stale, but the taste overall was delicious. The Hawaiian burger was good too. The fries were above average. Seemed to be double fried, which is always great. LOVED the garlic aioli. The shawarma was a bit small. Overall felt pricey. 2 burgers (each with a single patty) with fries were $44+. The atmosphere was fun and different with some grass tables, lots of greenery, and some games. No AC in the seating area though. It was also fun to play the game to win a free burger. We were SO close! Overall, it was good, not amazing though.”

“The UA shawarma was delicious. The music playing didn’t quite match the atmosphere, but overall, I recommend it.”

“Stopped in here before a show at the Chopin and was pleasantly surprised by the friendly staff and modern decor. The entry way/ front counter is a tight squeeze but it opens up to a lovely dining area and large outdoor space. The burger tasted fresh and high quality but could have used some more seasoning. The fries were super crispy and delicious. I look forward to trying more things on their menu the next time I am in the area.”
