“Delicious food! It is not the first time for my family here and they never let us down. They have many items on the menu and I could recommend all of them. But we particularly like their sandwiches! If you need something qiuck to bite, look no further. Won't be disappointed. They can do the tray of them if you have more people to feed!There is a young, very pleasant lady working there - Sneha. She really knows how to treat customers. Very polite and friendly.We will definitely be back!“
“Had a decent time here. The food was pretty good - the seasoning on the chicken was a bit salty for my taste tho. Most things here are self service and similar to most fast food places. Tried their chicken hot and was content with the spice level - definitely looking forward to trying their other hotter spice levels.“
“The lentil soup at Jaffa Shawarma is a comforting and delicious option for those looking for a warm and satisfying meal. Made with lentils, vegetables, and aromatic spices, it's a bowl of goodness that's sure to warm you up from the inside out and leave you feeling nourished and content.“
“Sinya just catered the 175th anniversary celebration dinner for our church. They were extremely helpful in the ordering and preparing phase...reassuring us that the portions identified in the group menu were plentiful...and I must say they really were! The food arrived on time, still hot, and delicious! We couldn't have asked for a more. My husband and I order from Sinya regularly for ourselves but this experience prompts this review for folks looking to serve large numbers of people.“
“The food was absolutely amazing! It was so hard to choose what to get with such a big variety to choose from that all looked and sounded amazing!! We definitely had the wings that were soooo sooo delicious and some other stuff that also was amazing! Took about 40 minutes to get there but so worth the trip and will be a regular spot to visit! Can’t wait to come back!!!“
“This was my first Indian restaurant experience and I was blown away! We ordered veg samosas, chicken lollipop, garlic naan, butter chicken, chicken tikka masala, chicken 65 biryani, and another house biryani special. Everything was so fresh and delicious. I love that the restaurant is BYOB too. Will definitely be coming back!“
“Trying Afghan food for first time…. and I love it. Roasted Eggplant with tomatoes & garlic yogurt . Tender not mushy & bitter, definitely for garlic lovers, then dumplings that reminded me of russian plemieni finally traditional Afghan rice with cinnamon & raisins ( not sweet at all) with veal. We finished with Afghan milk tea for dessert . Food in this place is delicious , but decor is minimalistic & basic. Very reasonably priced, friendly service. If you in area worth stopping by.“

The owner is super nice whenever I stop by and he makes all of the food by order so it's always fresh!My go to is the chicken tostini, but I've had about all of the tostinis and tried the menemen. I can't say anything about the authenticity, but the taste is definitely there :)“
“During an unexpected additional day in the city caused by a cancelled flight leg, I ended up at a hotel near ORD. On a whim, I visited Sultan for lunch, a restaurant about which I knew nothing beforehand. It turned out to be an incredibly pleasant surprise. The food was remarkably fresh, brimming with flavor, and all at a very reasonable price. Fayez, the owner, personally takes care of his guests, and his hospitality is truly outstanding. His commitment to providing a memorable dining experience was genuinely touching and highly appreciated. So impressed by the warmth and quality of my first visit, I eagerly returned for dinner the same day, further making Sultan a highlight of my extended stay in the city. I wholeheartedly recommend this restaurant. If it were possible, I would give it 10 stars!“
“I dined here with a buddy of mine last week. The food was great and the quality was amazing! Nice cuts of steak. Also had the pleasure of meeting the owner who was very welcoming and responsive to our needs. The lady who served us also had a cool personality and making sure we had everything we needed. The service is just as important as the food and they did very well so thank you so much!“

“Tiba is under new ownership as of a few months ago, and it is*very clear*. They've completely renovated the interior, their website is very well done - and best of all, the food is delicious and the service is great. I'm already planning on how many times I'm going to come back with my family. I really wish the new owners the best and thank them for a great dinner!“
“Absolutely phenomenal south Indian food. We came in to dine in but had to get it to-go due to an emergency. The staff was super accommodating and the Veg Thali (sampler platter) was absolutely divine. My friends got the Mutton Thali and Chicken Thali and said it is some of the best food they've had in Chicago. Spice level is definitely on the hotter side of restaurants I've been to but that made for a great meal. Incredibly affordable too. At ~$15 per person and plenty of tasty leftovers that keep well, I'll definitely be making a point to return soon.“
“Wow. Best burger I’ve had in awhile…. Very simple but everything was delicious. The employee recommended the smash sauce instead of cheese for dipping fries and I’m glad we listened. ?Kid-friendliness: Smaller burgers for the kiddos was also helpful so they weren’t wasting part of a huge sandwich“
“I’ve seen this place on the google maps one year ago and forgot to go there. 1 week ago a was lucky to stop in this area and was so starving. I entered the restaurant, and there was a very polite lady meet me and served well. I ordered chicken kebab shawarma which I recommended to eat if you in rush and needs to go back to work faster. The food was so great and they also give a garlic sauce which goes fantastic with shawarma. What I did? I ordered again! Tasty!“
“I recently dined at Turquoise café and restaurant in Chicago, and overall, it was a pleasant experience. The food was decent, with their mix grill standing out as particularly tender and well-seasoned. However, I found their mezza platter to be just okay, lacking the appetizing factor I was hoping for. On the brighter side, their salads were fresh and delightful. Their Lahem Ajun is crispy and well baked. But what truly stole the show for me was their Arak; it was incredibly delicious and refreshing, adding a perfect touch to the meal.“
“Jerusalem Cafe is like a cheat code for affordable, nutritious food in Oak Park. It's just about the cheapest place to get tasty salmon in downtown OP, and all the food is reliably delicious. I've lived here long enough to remember the restaurants that used to occupy this space, and I'm glad Jerusalem Cafe has stuck around.“
“The most delicious burgers are grilled here! They also have very tasty homemade seasonings you have to try! Staff are amazing and very friendly. Whenever I have the chance to stop by I always get the burgers and enjoy it. There is free parking spot and they open late night if you get hungry and your fridge is empty!“
“Best Mediterranean Food in the area! Clean seating area, and most of the staff are helpful if you're not familiar with the menu. The food is fresh and largely made to order. I have dietary restrictions and they are respectful. Food is well seasoned but you can ask for more heat. Simple and delicious“
“My Wife and I were blown away at how tasty the food was. Everything was very flavorful and well seasoned. And the prices were great for the portion sizes which were generous. My Fire Burger especially was a good full sized burger. And best of all everything was halal.Everyone working here was very polite and accommodating. They let us go into the back to wash our hands before we ate.The inside seating is very limited since this is a very small place. They did have an outside seating area so in the summer time there is more seating. They had an extensive menu including delicious Mexican food.“
“We catered my daughter’s bridal shower from Zad’s and could not have been more pleased with everything. From the moment I spoke with the manager to the actual event, everything was perfect. We ordered salmon, tawouk chicken, rice, hummus, vegetable stew, dessert and more. Every single thing was absolutely delicious! I highly recommend Zad’s!“

The level of customization (gluten free,nut free) available catered perfectly to my dietary needs and preferences, making every meal a delightful and delicious experience. Mohammed is very thorough in taking orders and have delivered meals on time. Very reliable service! Highly recommend!“
“Hi, all. As an UberEats delivery driver I have the unique opportunity of trying out new food spots that I wouldn't otherwise. (Probably more than I care to admit.) My coverage areas are the north and northwest suburbs - from Des Plaines to Evanston. If you're in the vicinity and looking for a crispy chicken sandwich look no further than Byrd's Hot Chicken in Skokie. Just a half block west off the Oakton stop on the Skokie Swift and you'll be able to able to enjoy a delicious crispy chicken sandwich from Byrd's. Freshness and quality at an affordable price, for real! Try it with their 24k sauce and you have yourself a perfect sandwich, my friends. Recommend the crispy green beans too.More like a neighborhood spot than a chain, Byrd's is run by good people. The guys behind the counter are always cool and very hospitable. Highly recommend!“

“Restaurant Ambiance - clean, spacious, airy Service - 10/10 Food - Ordered pita wrap chicken. It was absolutely delicious. The sauces the chef gave were good but the shawarma was so good, it did not really need any sauces. It is important to me that the restaurant was HMS certified. If I am in Chicago again, I would I've to try their shawarma bowl!“
“Absolutely amazing Honey BBQ wings!!! 10 ⭐️ Stars all the way! Owner was super nice, we talked about real cheese vs what most places use, “cheese”... I tried the pizza, and it’s Phenomenal!! Go to Halal inn, because they care about the ingredients they make your food from!“

“Stop what you're doing and come get brunch here. Seriously. This was one of the best meals I've had in a long time. Filling. Savory. And reminiscent of my travels throughout Eurasia and the Middle East. Step into this old school establishment and be greeted by the friendly staff and beautiful bar adorned with colorful bottles. Walk towards the back wall lined with bottles of wine to your table where the experience begins. The brunch is the main event. Get the Turkish tea, I like mine with a little sugar. Then dive face first into the enormous spread of good eats coming your way. Eggs, menemen (tomato eggs), house baked breads, veggies, kofta, varied cheeses and spreads...ugh I can't get enough. I left with a full belly and heart as we sat for an hour digesting, sipping tea, and having great conversation. Seriously do yourself a favor and visit this place before it becomes too popular of a spot. 5/5“

“Even though it’s a hot chicken place and the chicken is great, Nash Bros has absolutely amazing halal smashburgers, quite frankly one of the best halal burgers in the Chicagoland area. The owners are great guys, really hospitable. Really great place to hang out to watch sports.“
