The beef chunk in the soup was perfect, lean with a good sized fat chunk which flavored the soup beautifully

Chayhana — solid, no-fuss middle eastern in North Center. Straight from the source, no adjustments. The team can walk you through the menu, and open late. Bill: "The cheese pida was a pleasant surprise, rich with mozzarella and very filling" [$]

🌙Late night — the kitchen runs past 10.

Great place for Eastern European and Central Asian food. You must try the hearing salad and the honey cake. The service is wonderful. The place is slightly rundown, but the food is delicious. I came here for Ukrainian Borsch and Plov. Recommend everything.

Delicious!! My husband and I drove into Chicago for a concert and found this place when looking for something that was open. We both got the special with a small soup and small entree. I got the Mastava which was absolutely delicious and I loved the fresh dill. My husband got the Borscht which was also delicious. Haven’t been to many restaurants with central Asian food and this was a really good experience! The lady serving us was also very sweet and super nice!
