I recently decided to try this restaurant as I am now fully back in the office and wanted to explore new dining options in the area.
The lady who made my food touched my vegetables with her bare hands.

“Every dish we tried was absolutely delicious—the hummus, baba ghanouj, steak, kebabs, mixed grill, chicken kebabs, shawarmas, fresh veggies, pita bread, and lentil soup were all bursting with flavor”
Tried the steak shawarma and falafel wrap which is listed as one of their signature items…not good at all.
“This place is so good for a gluten-free meal.”
This place is so good for a gluten-free meal! I've been in here about 10 times the last couple months and always go with the Taste of Mesh! Thank you to everyone involved 🙏🏼

The place is spotless and cozy, and the owner is incredibly friendly and welcoming. The food was delicious, the prices were great, and the whole experience felt genuine. I even forgot my wallet there, and they kept it safe for me until I came back. Truly wonderful service!

“This place was my favorite for falafel before covid.”
This place was my favorite for falafel before covid. We used to go there at least once a week. Now that we are back to the office I made the trip down there. The cashier still recognized us this with a smile and a fresh plate. Still one my favorite stops for falafel in the downtown area.

“First let me walk you though what I went through.”
First let me walk you though what I went through. I walked in curious as all I can be Herd the music I knew it was a vibe already Was instantly greeted by staff I asked for a shawarma she said I can give you a sample of one of our falafel’s I tried it with zero sauce and was already impressed. Crunch in bite. Taste and texture of healthy but savory. Add it to my order I said Took that and ran with it I said what meats to you have for the shawarma’s she told me all the meats I seen one specific type that I seen and she suggested ( kofta ) it was so good. Asked for a couple condiments and then as they were building I asked for fries they said yes and added fries to my order. Offered a drink and gave me my food . Told me they will call me when fries is ready. Instead they came to my table and handed them to me very nicely.. 10/10 5/5 everything Thanks again montfnse and staff ( I might be spelling her name wrong )

“Mediterranean Grill is an absolute gem.”
Mediterranean Grill is an absolute gem! Karim and Mo have created a truly wholesome and enjoyable spot with incredible food and top-notch service. We had the pleasure of catering from them for an event, but also dined in at their restaurant, and both experiences were fantastic. Every dish we tried was absolutely delicious—the hummus, baba ghanouj, steak, kebabs, mixed grill, chicken kebabs, shawarmas, fresh veggies, pita bread, and lentil soup were all bursting with flavor. You can truly taste the quality and freshness in every bite. The food not only satisfies your cravings but also feels so healthy and well-prepared. The ambiance is warm and welcoming, and the team, from the amazing cook in the back to the friendly service up front, makes you feel right at home. If you're looking for authentic Mediterranean flavors with a wholesome touch, Nesh Mediterranean Grill is the place to be. Highly recommend!

“The Beef Kefta Kabob Plate was flavorful and made with fresh, high-quality ingredients.”
The Beef Kefta Kabob Plate was flavorful and made with fresh, high-quality ingredients. The only comment is the bowl felt fairly simplistic, with the ingredients arranged ‘as is’ without much unique flair. That said, it’s a convenient and good spot in the Loop for a quick and filling Mediterranean meal.

“good hummus and bread choices.”
good hummus and bread choices. i like the style and presentation, but soggy falafel was a bit disappointing. i like crispy falafel. solid lunch choice for veggie or meat needs.

“Got the falafel wrap; it tasted really good.”
Got the falafel wrap; it tasted really good. If you like olives I’d recommend adding some, I liked the flavor it gave to the wrap. I’d recommend the place to anyone who’s looking for quick Mediterranean meal.

If you’re even considering AT ALL coming to Nesh, I mean you saw it or heard about it or anything and had even a split second thought about coming here.. that’s your intuition speaking that this place is worth it! And I’m telling you to listen to your intuition and come here and do your friends a favor and bring them too!! God bless 🙏🏼
