Shawarma & Grill At Lakeview — Lincoln Park mediterranean that sets the standard. The food tastes like it should, with no compromises. Hospitality you can feel from the door, and priced right. Muhammad sohail: "The bread is very soft, and the chicken tastes great not too spicy and not too mild"

“Absolute best shawarma in Chicago hands down.”
Absolute best shawarma in Chicago hands down. The chicken, the gyro, the falafel… all of it rocks! Plus the manager is super kind and occasionally gives out free warm soup on cold winter days 🫶🏻

Food was amazing, exactly what I needed, good rice and great meat. Even better than the food, the owner or who ever seemed to be in charge was extremely friendly and nice and very serviceable. I would recommend this spot a lot
