“Great little Mediterranean café! The food was fresh and flavorful, the staff was friendly, and the atmosphere was cozy. I’ll definitely be back!”
“This hole in the wall is delicious there is a cava around the corner it’s the same type of food but 100x better here would recommend!! I will say only downside is the music it was some sort of techno music other than that it’s amazing”
“Ordered their catering for a department lunch. Everything was EXCELLENT! I rate my Mediterranean places on their hummus and falafel and they were both phenomenal, along with their chicken and steak. So tender and flavorful! Will definitely keep them in mind again whenever I have a work lunch or need some Mediterranean food when I'm in the loop! 10 out of 10! Thank you!”
“A small dine in place but worth the visit for farm-fresh, handmade, gluten free food. I visited the 201. W Madison Street location in Chicago. One major suggestion will be to change the packaging or placement of food items. Mine had paper pieces in food because the sandwich paper got wet from sauces and then they tore (pics attached). Otherwise, food was exceptional and tasty. I ordered Sila's Mediterranean Vegan Steak Pocket Pita Sandwich (pic attached). They have wraps, bowls, soups, fries too and a soda/cool drinks storage area. Priced very reasonable as I really liked the portion sizes. Didn't see any restroom at facility. Very clean tables and floors.”
“I'm visiting from out of state and had lunch & dinner here..it was EXCELLENT!!”
“This was one of the best meals I've ever had. Chicken pita sandwich and the house potatoes (I could eat those until I explode, especially with whatever sauce they came with) Staff was super nice, and it was very clean.”
“The best Mediterranean food I’ve had in Chicago. Great flavor and good customer service as well.”
“Best mediterranean food I’ve had in a long time and it’s so so good!!!”
“I'm downtown so infrequently there is always a new restaurant or a restaurant I loved has closed. Today I found a new restaurant. I tried the Hangover sandwich (it is more a grilled burrito); it has gyros meat, grilled chicken, roasted cauliflower, roasted eggplant, rice, creamy sauce and a garlic sauce. It is delicious. My plan on eating half failed because it was so tasty. The roasted vegetables and meats went well together, and the sauces complimented the sandwich contents and provided some moisture. I also had a side of Baba ghanoushn served with a grilled pita bread; it had a garlic-forward flavor that I enjoyed, but someone might find overbearing.”
“I came in close to closing time and didn't realize it. The stuff was incredibly professional and nice. The food was next level great! The gyro meat tasted like it had a hint of teriyaki and was phenomenal. I also got the potato wedges with some sauce that I hadn't tasted before and was equally as amazing. The entire experience and food taste was absolutely perfect. If you're in Chicago and want amazing Mediterranean food definitely come by here. It's a 10/10 and fresh.”
