“Absolutely amazing spot if you love shawarma! Have been coming here for years and every time it's just incredible! Flavor profiles through the roof and I'm always scarfing it down bc it's like I'm chasing the next bite.. and the best part is their portions of food, literally last me for at least two full meals. Falafel, lentil soup, Jerusalem salad, the sensationably seasoned and crisped french fries etc etc... pick and choose your destiny and I promise there is no wrong path 🔥🔥🔥 Thank you as always for your incredible service Best Shawarma 🙏“

“First time having dinner here and it was so good. Fast service and nice atmosphere. Looking forward to coming back!“

“Food was over all nice tasting, service was good too. Bread could have been warmer,. Baklava, fillet mignon kabab entrée and hummus were fresh and delicious. Entrées need homemade sauces and not commercial hot sauce or Sriracha sauce. My tabbouleh had gravels in it, could not eat it.“

“Honestly these are the best shawarma in the neighborhood I love them anyone I take here always has nothing but good things to say about the food, the atmosphere is very inviting and the staff is very nice. I recommended the food to everyone that visits Chicago. I love it.“

“I never had kabobs presented on skewers like at Reef Kabob; such fun! Excellent hummas and tabular salad. The most gracious staff!“

“So I’ve been at this place a lot of times and it’s great! The food is great but the wings are a bit too salty and yea it’s great. Sometimes the workers ignore you but it’s not that deep. I love that there is some comedy to watch. But the place is real crowded on the weekend so e sure to come early. There isn’t that much outlets as well for me to charge my phone.“

“This place is great! The service is excellent- the servers are always so pleasant. The food is fresh and tasty! The portions are huge! The bowl feeds 2 people and they always give you a pita! I frequent this place at least 3 times a month!“

“Walking through the mall, decided to try it- the bowl was so delicious! Got the chicken with rice and cucumber sauce- came with a warm pita to dip into the hummus… so tasty. My friend got the garlic sauce, and that was also really good. Highly recommend!!“

“This place is truly a hidden gem. Absolutely delicious food, great portion sizes and incredibly affordable. Owners and workers are super kind and hospitable. Can’t recommend enough.“

“You can eat light and healthy here. But three of our 4 people found Tinfoil in their food. I had tabouli, hummus, cucumber salad, pickles, rice and double order of spicey chicken and a pita for only $11.99. They didn’t charge extra for the Tinfoil!!“

“If I could give 20 million stars to Naf Naf Grill on Clinton, I would do it in a heartbeat! This team knocked it pit of the park with their service, organization, follow-through, and amazing food. I had a presentation with an important client of ours and needed to make a last-minute request for catering for 20 people. I put my order in online at 5:30pm the day before and they had my order, hot, ready, complete, and organized beautifully at 10:30am when I requested. No frills or bull. The team was the kindest and everyone said hello and served me well. And all the food, utensils, labels (yes, they include paper tent labels for all the food!) etc. came in two excellent reusable bags. I am so wowed. I was nervous at first, and Naf Naf on Clinton rocked it beautifully. I can’t wait to order from them again and again! Thank you, Naf Naf Grill! You’re a gift to the city!“

“Very friendly service! Was able to sample some of the food items ( Thanks Souna!, forgive the misspelling) Food is very fresh and the large Kabob plate is delicious and very plentiful. Love the Falafel and the Kibbeh was good. Really good is the Arabic pizza the cheese and grilled veggie one. I will be returning!“

“Great food delicious 🤤 sabroso“

“Amazing food and hospitality
Second time eating here. Service and food were exceptional it feels like you are family when you sit down and treated like you are friends
The chicken, steak & salads are among the best I have had“

“Caspian Kabab has wonderful food with such a wide variety, there is something for everyone! The owner, Massoud, goes out of his way to ensure that everyone feels is happy and full! The sample platters are a great way to try a lot of different food. His homemade hummus, crabcakes, lamb kabobs, chocolate cake are the best and you have to try his tea! Thanks you, Massoud, for a great night out with the family!!!!! We'll be back!!!!“

“You know why I frequent Alwatan Bakery? Insha’Allah “God wills it” Their halal food is the best, I go there frequently for breakfast. I wouldn’t give that McDonald’s crap, or any other fast food to an abandoned starving stray dog on the street.“

“Absolutely delicious!!!!! Amazing service, great food. Would def rec!“

“Olive Mediterranean Grill is my go-to spot when I’m craving something fresh but filling in the Loop. Ordered the chicken shawarma plate ($15) with rice, hummus, and a side of their garlic sauce—absolutely hit the spot. The chicken was juicy and packed with flavor, and the hummus was super creamy. Also grabbed a falafel wrap ($10) for later, and it was just as good. The portions are solid, and the food always tastes fresh. Service is quick, so it's perfect if you’re on a lunch break. If you’re in the area, definitely worth stopping in!“

“one of the best restaurants i’ve ever eaten at ❤️ delicious food, cozy interior, and friendly service, will definitely be coming back!!

Vegetarian options: they have a menu section of completely vegetarian dishes, many of which can also be made vegan

Dietary restrictions: they have clearly labeled vegetarian, vegan and gluten free options“

“Pretty good Mediterranean food, I usually get the spicy chicken plate. Its another chipotle style add what you want in a bowl place. Flavorful and fresh food with decent portions and decent price. It can be a bit of sensory overload with all the tastes merging together and not really knowing what you're eating. But that's I think just the style of the food and also me putting everything possible in my bowl.Overall decent place, I come here every now and then if I don't bring lunch to work. But I'm not chomping at the bit to come.“

“I went to this branch for the first time. I felt like this branch is mediocre compared to other naf naf in Chicago area. The could keep the restaurant a little bit more cleaned. I bought a veggie bowl with fries. The fries was very oily. I have eaten much better fries at other places.

Parking: It’s somewhat expensive to park on the street in this area.“

“Amongst middle eastern food around the area, this yemeni food is by far one of my favorate. The owner himself, aside from being so humble and bubbly, you get to see his side in loving what he do for living. I admire him as he is, he knows his product and introduces us each time we dine in, and just love the fact that their food prices are very economical compare to other restaurants around them. Will definitely come back with our friends again 😃“
