“I came here during my lunch break. The flavors were really good but the portions are very small. Wouldn’t come back unless they change their portion sizes to more.”
“I eat here about once a week and I love it. The chicken shwarma is delicious. The meat is soft and cooked in the perfect spice combination. The hummus and baba ganoush are great . When I go to other Mediterranean restaurants I am disappointed because I compare the flavors to this place. The staff is friendly and helpful.”
“Their shawarma and platters are the best. This is the best halal place in NorthWest Indiana. Mohammed great customer service.”
“This is hands down my favorite fast food in Chicago. I’m never disappointed - the food always tastes fresh and delicious! The sandwiches are huge, and the plates are the perfect amount of food.”
“The crew is great! There is one guy in particular who always makes sure I get steak with no gristle. That’s really my only issue is unless I get this one person who makes sure I never get ANY of that! And I couldn’t love him more. I believe he wears glasses and he goes above and beyond but I do like all the staff. Just get rid of the gristle!”
“I’ve been a regular at the Loop location for years, but in the past couple of years I’ve been visiting the West Town spot more often. Best chicken kabobs around, the spicy kick is next level! I love building my own pita, though sometimes just onions and garlic are the perfect balance.”
“Very good food. Portion size is a bit on a smaller size compared to nearby middle eastern in and out restaurants. its modern, service is great and easy, food quality and taste is what makes this place a 5 star restaurant.”
“Everything we tried was super flavorful. The Lentil Soup with a Twist was an all-around favorite. The chicken shwarma plate came with 3 options of sides, Mediterranean rice, Couscous, and Rice with Chickpeas. The hummus, falafel, tabbouleh were tasty as well. Only drawback was their Freestyle drink machine was broken. Reasonably priced for freshly made items.”
