Everything tasted fresh and full of flavor, and you can tell they really care about what they’re serving.I’ve been to Istanbul and I know how friendly and warm people are there, so I wasn’t surprised! I will definitely visit again when in the city! Thank you for the great experience!“

“Cira is phenomenal. From the atmosphere, service, and food, everything exceeded my expectations. I had so much fun talking with my servers, eating delicious food with unique flavors, and relaxing with friends in comfortable seating. The staff went above and beyond in their service and care. Cira provided me with the best dining experience I’ve had. I HIGHLY recommend Cira.“

“Overall like it very nice . Drinks were good. We enjoyed the whipped feta for the appetizer. My make sea bass was a little dry but my daughter's chicken dish was good. Service very nice. Could have used a little more help but they worked hard and was attentive. Was there for wine Wed which is half off. Pour was small but the waiter reminded us which I thought was nice of him.“

“Run to Zizi’s! The food is amazing! Fresh and delicious. Huge portions and everyone is so friendly. John our wonderful waiter made our experience even better. GREAT Place all around!!!!“

“This is a Thai place that is fairly new to the area. I ordered Pineapple Fried Rice, Pad Kee Mao, and Crab Rangoon. Wow— I love it! This may be my favorite place for Thai in Chicago. Spice level is perfect for those who love to eat spicy dishy- it is actually spicy, not American spicy.

Lots of Thai places don’t sell Pineapple fried rice which is one of my favorite dishes. It tastes perfect and authentic!

Please support this small business! The food is authentic and not Americanized!“

“I visited Cedars with my husband today and we cannot properly convey how much we loved it! The staff was patient, kind, knowledgeable, and the one detail that struck me the most was their treatment of everyone-open and caring. The food was epic; perfectly balanced seasoning, bright flavors, richness without heaviness, lovely fusion dishes and the absolute BEST crispy falafel I have had in my life. I felt so comfortable and at ease while I was there, which is a feeling I don’t usually have in restaurants. The ethos, celebration of community and cherished family recipes make this a one-of-a-kind dining experience, counting the days until I can go back! Thank you Cedars!!!! 🖤🤍❤️💚“
