If you’re even considering AT ALL coming to Nesh, I mean you saw it or heard about it or anything and had even a split second thought about coming here.. that’s your intuition speaking that this place is worth it! And I’m telling you to listen to your intuition and come here and do your friends a favor and bring them too!! God bless 🙏🏼

High quality food at a reasonable price. You get your food surprisingly fast too. I usually go when I’m trying to get in shape because the food is healthy and tastes really good.

I recently decided to try this restaurant as I am now fully back in the office and wanted to explore new dining options in the area. I visited around 1:30 PM on Tuesday, October 7th. The restaurant was not particularly busy at that time, and the menu—along with the accompanying photos—looked very appealing.
Unfortunately, my experience did not meet expectations. The service was disappointing; both staff members working during my visit appeared disengaged and seemed reluctant to assist customers. I ordered the chicken kabob entrée, adding only two vegetables and requesting extra onions. However, I received only a minimal amount of onions and was informed there would be an additional charge for any more. The entrée was supposed to include grilled onions, but these were missing from my order. Additionally, the portion of garlic sauce provided was quite small and excessively salty, and I did not receive any pita bread with my meal.
Given that the entrée cost nearly $20 after tax, I was surprised that basic items like pita bread were not included. Overall, my experience was unsatisfactory, and I do not plan to return.

Updated Review: I had some concerns from a previous visit, but the owner addressed them promptly and with sincerity. I truly appreciate the effort to make things right and hope Nesh will always continue to provide the best customer service. The owner is great, and the food here is amazing—definitely one of the best halal options in downtown Chicago!

This place was my favorite for falafel before covid. We used to go there at least once a week. Now that we are back to the office I made the trip down there. The cashier still recognized us this with a smile and a fresh plate.
Still one my favorite stops for falafel in the downtown area.

Good array of options on the menu, with bowls and wraps and different ways to customize with various toppings.
The service was great, I was a little clueless on what to order since it was my first time there but the two young ladies that were serving the food were of great help. They gave me suggestions and I loved the freshness of the food, I will most definitely go back.

Nesh Mediterranean Grill in Chicago is a hidden gem! The food is fresh, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned—especially the shawarma and falafel. The staff is friendly, service is quick, and the cozy atmosphere makes it a must-visit spot. Highly recommended!

I came here after seeing so many positive reviews, but I was honestly disappointed. The food was mediocre in both flavor and quality, and unfortunately it left me with an upset stomach afterward. Based on my experience, I would rate this place on the lower end.

Phenomenal experience - the food was on point and so was the service. I would highly recommend Nesh for a work lunch or a quick bite if you’re in the area. Their Taste of Nesh gives you a little bit of everything, so it’s perfect for a first try!
