Imee's Kitchen — Loop food that sets the standard. The flavors are genuine, nothing diluted. Friendly without hovering. Wallet-friendly, owner-operated. Kelly L: "The chicken was so tender and the spices were perfect"

“All of the food tasted so authentic and was served quickly”
I'm rather confused by all the 5 star glowing reviews.
What is going on here. I can't believe I am eating the same food as other reviewers.

“In a world of bland sameness and slop bowls, Imee's Kitchen is a burst of homemade flavor.”
In a world of bland sameness and slop bowls, Imee's Kitchen is a burst of homemade flavor. After devouring my first meal here, my co-workers decided it was a repeat location contender and we went again the next day for round 2. Every part of the meal was packed with fresh ingredients and a unique flavor. From the toom to the beets, and the Lebanese salad to the rice, every bite was enjoyable and incredible. I definitely suggest a split bowl for your first time, and my co-worker has also loved the wraps. And I'll say it again, the toom is out of this world! Imee's will be a constant part of my lunch rotation from now on.

“What a wonderful experience we had at Imee’s.”
What a wonderful experience we had at Imee’s! My bf suggested we find a middle eastern restaurant, and being of Lebanese descent and so missing my grandmother’s cooking, I immediately chose Imee’s. We had the yogurt chicken and the 7 spice chicken and had lentil soup and laban for our sides. It was all SO good. The chicken was so tender and the spices were perfect. The rice was so tender. The sauces/condiments were perfect. And the soup and laban were amazing. All of the food tasted so authentic and was served quickly. Nicole, the owner, was delightful to talk with as well. I will definitely be coming back next time I’m in town!

“Yogurt Chicken with Lentil Soup 🍴 After searching for a healthy food spot with a reasonable price...”
Yogurt Chicken with Lentil Soup 🍴 After searching for a healthy food spot with a reasonable price range, I came across this place — and I’m so glad I did! The yogurt chicken with rice (pictured) and the lentil soup on the side were both delicious, comforting, and quite filling. You can really tell the food has a homemade touch, prepared with care and authentic Lebanese tradition. It’s a cozy, family-run spot where everything feels fresh and made with love. Perfect if you’re looking for something wholesome and satisfying without breaking the bank. Definitely coming back!

Imee’s is awesome. Their meat plates are super yummy & filling, and the owner is so welcoming! My favorite is the Kibee.

“Wonderfully fresh and tasty Mediterranean food.”
Wonderfully fresh and tasty Mediterranean food. After stopping here for lunch one day, I saw they do catering so ordered food for our company's potluck lunch including tray of 7 spice chicken, Lebanese salad, pita and toom which is to-die for! It was a HUGE hit!

“This place was amazing.”
This place was amazing! Such delicious food, cute atmosphere and super friendly owner/employees! You really feel like you just walked right into someone’s grandma or mom’s kitchen in their home. Had the beef with tabouleh and sides of hummus/yogurt and everything was delicious but the homemade yogurt was insane, never had anything like it. Can’t recommend enough so do yourself a favor and go here asap

“If you need catering in Chicago, look no further - Imee's is the way to go.”
If you need catering in Chicago, look no further - Imee's is the way to go. We used Imee's to cater a work meeting, and it was amazing. From the owner coming in personally to set up, to the detail and care that was put into the setup, to the taste and quality of the food, everyone was thrilled. The food was delicious - I loved everything I tried. One of my colleagues remarked that the food tasted homemade, nothing like the boring corporate catering we're so used to. Everyone was cleaning their plates and going back for seconds. Each dish had a card with the ingredients listed, which was helpful not only to those with food allergies/dietary restrictions, but to those that may not be familiar with Lebanese dishes. The owner also hand wrote a thank you card to our business manager - who does that?! Imee's Kitchen does that! Use them to cater your next event, you will not regret it!

“Ordered Kibee here via Relish.”
Ordered Kibee here via Relish. I received a nice note saying they ran out and substituted it with beef. It was delicious. Beef was so tender and flavorful, amply seasoned, not salty. The Tabouleh salad though is parsley heavy, a few slices of beet and tomato. No cucumber. Hope that you would start using sustainable packaging, compostable ones instead of plastic even if it’s reusable. I would have given 5 stars then.

When I say 10/1000 highly Recommend . The FOOD and The SERVICE is good the owner check on me multiple times and made sure I was good and also. First time will definitely be back to try more food on the menu . The first thing I got was a plate with the beef and the chicken and it came with rice and a salad. A lot of bang for my buck! Well worth it . Thank ya!

“Delicious food and a cool space.”
Delicious food and a cool space. I got the mujadra plate and really enjoyed it. I ordered to dine in, but everything still came in small plastic containers, which I would recommend they change.
