“I was on my way to grab Thai food at a near by restaurant when I came across this restaurant. I figure Mediterranean has lots of veggie options, so I decided to ditch my earlier plans. The service was great, with very friendly staff however, the food was way too lo salty. So much so that I could not finish it. The soup was great though. After I got up to leave I told the lady at the counter that the food was too salty. Not what I expected from Mediterranean food. After receiving an apology from the restaurant a few weeks later, I decided that the next time I am in town I will give them a second chance i.e a surprise visit. So, on January 28, 2026 I decided to stop by for dinner. This time the food was perfect, not salty. I was able to enjoy my meal. It was then I realized how large the portion is for the price. I enjoyed the lentil soup and every bit of my main course. The girls at the counter was very polite. After my second visit, I will update my food experience and overall experience to 5 star. See update pictures as well.”
“Nice, cozy, spacious place with lots of parking. Wide variety of menu options, tasty food, cheerful staff.”
“Lamb Kabab 🥩 Platter is the best in town. After 2020 me & my son started eating out more (funny part 🤣)... He was young & exploring different meats. Lamb clicked and the new era begun. Since then we enjoyed their Kababs 🥩, Falafel Platter 🧆, Chicken 🍗 is ok ok. Tahini is great but, but & another but their Spicy Chutney is out of this world. Way better than even Pita Inn (you know only if you're from Chicago area). Can't compare their Spicy Chutney at all. Way above respect for Pita House for specifically that reason. Have warm Pita with it & it's Heavenly (without "Bodies" 😁). Must visit and eat there since take out won't justify.....🥰”
“The service consistently exceeds expectations, delivering exceptional quality. While portion sizes may be perceived as smaller, the value remains competitive. Overall, highly recommended.”
“Great food. Very clean restaurant and friendly staff!”
“The food was awesome, and I really enjoyed my salad from this restaurant, alongside my family! When I came inside, I was charmed by the interior of the restaurant, so I decided to show my parents it, and the owner noticed, letting me know of the fountains behind the restaurant that just blew me away! On top of that, he gave me a free baklava for taking photos and videos, which was SUPER nice! Definitely recommend coming here, especially since the meat is halal”
“First time there. My husband recommended it. We went for lunch. Friendly, courteous young lady took our order. My hubby had lemonade and said it was very sweet.. He had the super combo and I the lunch special #3 chicken, rice and salad.. salad dressing was salty and not thick enough for a dressing. The food was good: not salty. The chicken was very good but a bit dry. The sauce they give you in the side was very spicy but very good. I tried my husband’s lamb and it was excellent! Would recommend. Place was clean and you can see how they cook food right there: I liked that.”
“I got the super combination plate and I was severely disappointed. I mean it has a bit of everything but most of the meat was dry and tasteless. I’ve been to other places where the meat is very moist and flavorful. For the price I can’t expect much but it could have been a decent meat. The only thing good was the mango juice. Besides that, there is plenty of seating inside and outside. Parking is sufficient. This is a one and done for me.”
“I ordered the launch special from two different places beat the pita house restaurant has the least meat amount and presentation look like. If you like combination feast, all meat plate, or lunch specials, go to a different place like Pita inn or Pita Pita, where they serve more meats with almost the same price”
“Looking at how beautiful the atmosphere is, I am honestly disappointed in the food. The rice was dry, i had the combination feast and the meat didn’t taste as good as other places. Only reason I came here was to try it for the first time and I got disappointed I couldn’t even finish my plate when I realized the chicken I was served was raw i’ll attach a video.”
