“Definitely try the lentil soup. Smooth & tasty. My family loved everything we tried. Reasonable price, too!”
“Overall really solid location for Mediterranean food. Loved the waffle fries and hummus”
“Always fresh ingredients! Drinks were refreshing too, I will be back.”
“Falafel & Grill is one of those lowkey spots you end up craving again the second you leave. The falafel is crispy on the outside, soft and herby inside, and everything tastes fresh—not like it’s been sitting around. Portions are generous (you’re definitely not leaving hungry), and the flavors hit every time, especially with their sauces. It’s quick, affordable, and perfect for when you want something filling but still feels lighter than your usual takeout.”
“La comida aquí es deliciosa, tienen un toque muy especial. Amamos visitarlos.”
“Excellent shawarma. Got the chicken sandwich and man did it hit the spot. Just what I needed after loosing my rec volleyball playoff game, season ender. But at least I got called boss by the cashier. Great music.”
“Delicious food. Everything was cooked so juicy and tender. I got the kebab plat and my husband got the gyro plate. We were both equally satisfied with our food. Portions are big so will definitely have some to take home. Service was fast too. Parking is very limited unless you park at the Jewel parking lot next door.”
“Falafel & Grill is such a gem! The food is fresh, flavorful, and the chicken is unbelievably juicy. Portions are generous, prices are super affordable, and the quality never misses. Easily one of the best quick Mediterranean spots in Chicago!”
“I was looking for a healthy meal, and this place was perfect. The food was fresh and flavorful, the staff was welcoming, and the whole restaurant was spotless. I’ll definitely be coming back.”
“We highly recommend this spot in Wicker Park. They have the absolute best Chicken Shawarma sandwich (wrap). It's so delicious and addictive!! Perfect flavor and so juicy.”
“Had a wonderful meal at Falafel & Grill last week! I have walked past this place so many times and wanted to try it. So glad I did! We tried a large selection of menu items including chicken and beef shawarma wraps, hummus, falafel, and some waffles fries. The food was tasty overall and the portions were generous. We had enough leftovers for three of us to all take home a box. I also tried the mint lemonade which was fantastic. Next time I have to try the baklava. I enjoyed sitting outside on the patio area. Even though it’s in a busy spot, the patio feels relaxed and secluded. Also, the staff here are so friendly and they were very attentive. They made sure our experience was 10/10”
