“Nov 30, 2025
I had their harissa chicken bowl with a skewer of salmon kabob on a side. It was alright, nothing extraordinary.
$19,48 - including tax. They are kinda stingy on protein, that amount of chicken was for kids size meal. That’s why I had to add salmon ($4 for 2 tinny pieces of salmon).“

“Went here on a field trip with two busses worth of people, and all went smooth. Although we're were served a different menu due to the field trip, the food was still great, service members were kind and attentive, and the area was clean and inviting. Owner was bright and fun, and the staff were each wonderfully selected people. Definitely will come back to try the Greek selection!“

“The food is delicious and the people are extremely friendly. I am a big fan and highly recommend there Eggplant Parmigiano, beet salad, curries, and Spaghetti marinara. But you can’t go wrong, food is top quality. They make my life easier after a long day at work. Oh, and one of the best brownies I have ever had!“

“Zad by Pita Inn in Skokie, Illinois, offers a delightful four-star dive into Mediterranean cuisine with its fresh, flavorful dishes that blend authenticity and affordability, making it a go-to spot for quick yet satisfying meals in a casual setting. The steak shawarma wraps tender, spiced meat in warm pita with creamy hummus and crisp veggies that burst with Middle Eastern zest, while the lamb dishes impress with their juicy tenderness and aromatic spices, all served in generous portions that feel like a steal for the price. The clean, no-frills counter-service atmosphere hums with efficient staff who keep things moving smoothly, though occasional inconsistencies in seasoning or tougher cuts during busy rushes can slightly detract from the experience. Overall, it’s a reliable neighborhood gem for falafel lovers and shawarma enthusiasts alike, with gluten-friendly options adding to its appeal, even if it doesn’t quite reach the pinnacle of gourmet flair.“

“The Chef Grill is a great spot if you’re looking for quality food served fast and fresh. Every dish I’ve tried has been flavorful and cooked to perfection. The ingredients taste fresh, and the portions are generous without overdoing it.

Chef Ibrahim stands out — he’s clearly experienced and very professional.

Service is another big plus here. The staff is quick, polite, and the place is always very clean — something I really appreciate. Whether you’re dining in or grabbing takeout, you’ll likely have a smooth experience from start to finish.
Special thanks to Zuleyha, and Emre for their special efforts in giving us the best experience here every time.
Definitely worth visiting if you care about good food and solid service.“
