“I ordered a full lamb stuffed with misakhan and variety of sides! The food was out of this world, cooked with perfection! I like to make my own food, but ordering from this amazing place seriously was like a home cooked meal! Fresh, spices were perfect, salads and hummus so fresh! I highly recommend the Orland Market & Bakery catering for all your occasions! Service and the crew so friendly and punctual!!“
“it just opened, but this middle east restaurant's menu is growing. It offers great Middle East fast foods with chicken, beef, lamb shawarma (gyros), hummus, freshly baked flat bread for great food wraps. And it has phenomenal salads including tabouli and Jerusalem salad with tahini. Check it out. The menu is phenomenal and they are just getting started. I love it.“
“My coworker and I had lunch here. It was amazing. The chicken is so tender and well done. Everything is so fresh cooked to order. Everything tasted wonderful. Will definitely be back for more.Wheelchair accessibility: Ramp from the parking to the place. No stairs. Tables with chairs.“
“I had my sons engagement party last Saturday. I was totally impressed by the food and service. My guest called me the next day raving about the food and the hospitality that we received. I definitely recommend this place. The owner was very pleasant and did everything in her power to make us happy. Thank you Zwar Restaurant for your food and great service…..“
“This place is slept on. Food is amazing, staff is professional. Hope the food and prices stay the same. My favorite spot in the south side by far. At the moment, they are better than Albawadi and fatooush. Mixed grill or one of the sandwiches, you can’t go “
“The food here is phenomenal! I would give this place ten stars. I got the butter chicken bowl, full of hummus, baba ganoush, veggies, sauces, feta etc! The bowls are a nice portion. I will ALWAYS go to this place I swear. The taste? VERY GOOD! The way they place the portions in the bowl, sets me on an actual journey when I eat. Spoon after spoon after spoon, omg, I have to slow down, damn this food is good. The taste is fresh. The taste is refreshing. The meat is seasoned just right. The meat is clean; no bones or gristle or fat. Next time I will get the steak bowl. I've been eating while typing this entire time. Im so full and I just ate one third of this bowl.I can only imagine all the other food, and this was just the butter chicken bowl. Im sure they will get tired of seeing me in there because this is now THE place for me.“
“The best restaurant ever. The food was amazing and the service was even better. I came as an invite from my cousin and it was such an amazing place. Highly recommend!Mashallah, I eat a lot of good food, it is tidy, and the grills are cleanest“
“We had my daughter’s baby shower today and everything was amazing! Our servers Gregory and Kosta were great! They attended to all our needs. The room we had the shower in was set up beautifully! The food was delicious as everyone said it would be that had their events there. My family had recommended Kefi as so do I for your special events. Thank you to everyone at Kefi for making it a very Special day for us!!“
“Got the chicken shawarma meal and it was such a good portion. It came with fries, pickles and a drink. The food was really good and filling. The service is friendly and quick and our food did not take long. There is also plenty of seating for small or larger groups.Parking: There's parking around the back. The front parking was pretty packed.“
“Honestly these are the best shawarma in the neighborhood I love them anyone I take here always has nothing but good things to say about the food, the atmosphere is very inviting and the staff is very nice. I recommended the food to everyone that visits Chicago. I love it.“
“My husband and I came into your restaurant for the first time today. We tried the Steak Bowls and they were delicious. The different flavors from both rices, the seasoned tender steak and the five different toppings were wonderful. Yum! We’ll be back!“
“Perfect place to go after Juma! So wonderful having a full halal menu place this far south. I had the mix platter and it was delicious and filling! Great done in experience too. I highly recommend this place, and can’t wait to come back and try more!Dietary restrictions: Full Halal menu- the owner even showed me the box of halal chicken he was preparing.“
“Food is delicious, especially halawet jeben. Just like other Arab businesses, they lack good communication, so make sure you are very clear about your order and time of pickup, text them again and hour before pickup and when you are in the parking lot, annoying, but worth it.“
“I'm not used to giving 5 stars, but this place earned it. I've been there after some friends suggested me the knafeh, a traditional dessert that is a must if you will come here. Since I stepped in I was fascinated by the place and it's style. The owner has done it's best decorating it. The staff there was incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure our dining experience was enjoyable. They gave us a background about this place history, that is amazing. The food was equally impressive - fresh, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. I highly recommend this restaurant!“
“The food was delish! Although they seemed rigid, maybe a little skeptical, they were polite, clean, & they take Google pay! I love the garlic sauce. So yum, so garlicky lol!! The falafel was enough for 2 days of eats, & soo good! The baklava was exceptionally tasty, & not soggy, but soft, slightly crunchy, & utter oral bliss! I'm spending more of my loot with them!!! By the way, the pickled parsnips....WOW!!“

“We just went to Al Basha, which means the king in Arabic, after searching it on Google Maps. Wow the food is so incredible. We just had to get takeout because we were going somewhere but we will definitely go back! I had just a plate of falafel and my husband got the beef Shawarma sandwich. The portions were even bigger than they told us and everything was incredibly freshly homemade. Wow!“
“Food it’s very delicious and will give more chance for management we try them many times just need more organisation specially Ramadan they doesn’t accept order over the phone and we went walking before iftar they need 45 minutes to get “
“Traditional Old School Style Arabic Breakfast. Tastes just like Home Made without having to do the hours of cooking and cleaning lol. Service is shockingly fast and they’re so busy that everything has always been fresh. Our staff eats here multiple times a week. They never disappoint. This is the Go To for anyone that knows Arabic Breakfast.“
“Food was very good! We each got an appetizer, main meal, and shared a dessert. All were very good. We each got kabobs for our main dishes, it came with rice & potatoes. The dessert was delicious. The service was very good as well! Highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who hasn’t tried it yet.“
“Absolutely Fantastic Food … the owners are very nice and gave us samples of the rice pudding (SO good) and a sample of the Lentil soup ( beyond yummy). I had the grilled chicken bowl and tried the red rice and the yellow rice - this was so delicious. My wife had the gyros. Both these dishes are SO good. You will not be disappointed with this restaurant. I’d give it 10 stars if I could. Absolutely delicious!!!! Thank you AlSultan! :-)“
“I come here rather often for the fahsa, which is pretty consistent. I typically ask the server to make it spicy. The two menu items we tried for the first time this visit was the biryani which was a big hit, along with the meat pies which I believe are the first items on the menu (I forgot the name). I would highly recommend this yemeni food, I just wish the service was a little better as that is the only reason I'm giving them a 4/5 star review“
“Wow wow wow first time for the family…food was outrageous so juicy crispy light not to greasy…seasonings on point food hot presentation was great…milkshakes are to die for… environment was clean smelled good we will be back for sure 1000/1000 and generous portion on the salad!!!!“
“This was my very first time trying this Restaurant! BRAVO!!! I REALLY enjoyed my meal. The cashier was friendly, and extremely helpful in helping me understand the Menu. I also liked the that one of the cooks brought me my meal. because he saw the cashier was busy. I will be back. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“
