Best restaurant I've been to in so long. Food is delicious, portions are big, and service is excellent. I would come here all the time if I'm a Chicago resident.
Em Karam is a Middle Eastern restaurant that offers a spacious interior and ample parking. The staff are friendly and polite, providing good service. The menu has a decent selection and the pricing is comparable to other nearby restaurants.
When it comes to the food, the mixed kabob grill, mutabal, and hummus have received positive comments. The mutabal is described as "pretty good," and the hummus has a "nice kick" to it. The mixed kabob grill includes tender and juicy kefta, chicken, and shish kabobs, although the portion of meat is said to be a bit small.
The traditional Middle Eastern breakfast options, such as hummus, falafel, foul, fattet hummus, and friend halloumi cheese, have been highly recommended. The vegetarian options for the breakfast menu are also noted as a positive aspect.
However, there are some mixed reviews about the toshka sandwich, as some found it just "okay" with hard and dry bread and not much chicken, while others didn't mind the lack of sauce. Overall, Em Karam has received positive feedback for its food, service, and atmosphere, with a few areas for improvement noted.
