The food is horrible, nothing near real Arabic food. The pita bread is soggy and tastes horrible. I do not recommend this place at all.

Enjoyed a fafal sandwich this past weekend. When staff asked me what sauce I asked him what did he recommend, and he suggested the white sauce. I must have looked apprehensive so he suggest I get it on the side. Glad I did, since the sauce was rich and very good, and it allowed me to decide how much to put on the sandwich. . The food was good, tomatoes and onion, fresh. Friendly service. The atmosphere was dated and not great for staying long. I volunteer in the downtown loop and try different places to eat. So when guests ask for lunch recommendation, I can offer suggestions. On the way back to the Ogilvie Train station I noticed a new location on LaSalle street is going to be opened soon. I hope the new location has a brighter and more modern, cleaner interior. For someone looking for a quick bite or takeout, I will recommend The Halal Guys.

Ordered a sandwich, and it was dripping with water. The sandwich fell apart in the first bite and the bread turned soggy in under 2 mins. Unfortunately explaining the problem to the staff lead to sarcastic remarks.

I order from here a lot, flavor is good and all. But the beef has been off lately — dried, crispy and crunchy, almost stale. Not ideal

Wasn’t very good, rice was crunchy and lumpy, meat was firm and I hate when it’s cut and sits in warming pan gets hard. I’d not go back.

The food was on point. Glad I chose the vegetarian gyro because it was seasoned well. The staff and even other patrons accommodated and helped me with my mobility challenges. I give it 4 stars with the environment because sometimes you feel welcomed by other patrons, but I didn't feel that vibe.

This was my first time having a gyro, my son’s as well. It was absolutely PHENOMENAL! The guy who made our food was so kind. I asked him to make mine the way he likes his because I had no idea what to order! Awesome vibe dining in! I’ll probably never be back in Chicago but I’m so glad I stopped here on our first night of vacation!
Big portions, food is decent but not great. I got a bowl with gyro and chicken, and the gyro was so overcooked it was crunchy. There are many better Mediterranean places in Chicago.
