“This Chicago Turkish place has a very cozy patio and also indoor atmosphere.”

This Chicago Turkish place has a very cozy patio and also indoor atmosphere. We tried several of the dishes including the lahmacun (a Turkish flatbread), the Adam kebap which is the most famous of the Turkish kebaps, the mantı which are like small Turkish dumplings, and the lentil soup. All were exceptional! The service was great as well! Can’t wait to go back and try their kahvaltı (Turkish breakfast).

“Formerly known as Antep Mediterranean Grill (if you wish to see more/ older reviews).”

Formerly known as Antep Mediterranean Grill (if you wish to see more/ older reviews). I came with group of friends. Most of them ordered the adana kebab and it looked great. I ordered the shawarma plate, and my wife ordered the lahmajun (not sure if I’m spelling it correctly). My shawarma was fantastic. Very juicy and delicious. We also got kunafah and some other dessert options at the end. I was kinda disappointed at the desserts as they look amazing, but none of them tasted good except for the kunafah. Service is great overall, and the atmosphere is good. Would definitely recommend.
