“Absolutely delicious! The food is fresh, flavorful, and generously portioned. The Medina Couscous and Harira soup reminded me of traveling abroad. Service was fast and friendly. If you’re looking for something more exciting than the usual local options, give this place a try. I’ll definitely be back“

“Love, love, love this place. The food, the atmosphere, the good looking crew, man! My first experience was to celebrate my daughter's birthday in August, the next was a birthday celebration for my sister, and God willing, I will celebrate my birthday in May. But trust, I will not wait until my birthday to go, mainly because I don't live in Illinois, but because I frequent this state, Al Bahaar is on my list of stops & I encourage family and friends to join me! Great job!“

“I have used Alrayes catering more than once over the years. The food is excellent and it’s great that they deliver as well. The communication with Shaimaa is always easy and flexible. There is great variety on the menu for every occasion. I definitely recommended Alrayes for anyone looking for quality food and great service“

“This is my third time eating at Pita Pita. and I keep coming back for a reason! The first time, I had just the falafel, and it was the biggest—and best-tasting—falafel I’ve ever had. Every bite was packed with seasoning, and compared to other places in the area, this one stands out as the absolute best. On my second visit, I tried the mixed lunch, and it was simply delicious. The variety of meats, the creamy garlic sauce, and the refreshing salad with a hint of mint made for a healthy yet satisfying meal. The presentation was just as impressive as the flavors. Now, here I am again—two days in a row! Yesterday, I had lunch, and today, I’m back for dinner. This time, I ordered the mixed dinner, six falafels, and a side of that incredible garlic sauce. As I sit in my car taking photos of my meal, I can’t help but feel pure happiness. Five stars all around for both the food and the customer service! Pita Pita has officially earned my Golden Seal of Approval Award 🏆.“

I had the sampler with oatmeal pancakes and they were delicious!!! My other options included the chicken avocado crepe and Mediterranean omelette. The coffee was good, it came to the table in its own thermal to stay hot. I highly recommend!!“

“Went tonight on a whim for dinner and I’ll just say this place was spectacular! Without even knowing anything about this restaurant in advance, and in town from Pittsburgh for a youth hockey tournament, we happened to drive by and decided to stop and eat there. Walking in the atmosphere was fantastic and the service was spectacular. We sat at the bar, had a few cocktails, unbelievable appetizers, terrific meals for dinner followed by the most amazing desserts ever. While we were there, we had an opportunity to meet and chat with the owner for a little while. Always a pleasure to talk to someone that is passionate about what they do and appreciates both their employees and customers. It was a fantastic dining experience and I highly recommend this place. Thank you Ted for your hospitality.“
