“Not bad for first time...
Biryani was good...
Chicken on the biryani was slightly undercooked and a lot of white rice...🤭🙈
But, still it was good...
And the samosa chat was also decent...
Make sure to ask for plenty of tamarind sauce on the side...“

“The food is delicious here and the people who work here are even better. I was eating in yesterday and there was a man who came inside who I believe was asking for work- he was washing windows. The owner or manager said they have a company that does it. So he could not give him the business. The man appeared to be a little unkept and possibly struggling. The owner asked if he was hungry and the man replied yes, he ended up making him fresh food and he left with a bag of food and some water. This interaction was so special and I truly hope their kindness is delivered back to them indefinitely. Please support this local business and kind individuals who make our world a better, softer, kinder place to be in! EAT HERE!“

“Had an amazing experience at Jarasa Kabob! The food was fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. The kabobs were perfectly grilled, juicy, and well-seasoned, and the portions were generous for the price.

The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the service was quick without feeling rushed. The place itself was clean and comfortable, making it a great spot whether you’re grabbing a casual meal or bringing friends and family.

Definitely one of those spots you leave already planning your next visit. Highly recommend!“

“Store front restaurant in a strip mall is find! Plenty of parking. Half a dozen tables for dining. While we were there, they had a steady stream of take out orders. Their is a nick-nack with a flag of Jordan, maybe the influence is coming from. Their Gyros is not the typical style in the USA, all the same ingredients firmly wrapped in their flat bread rather than a pita. Baba Ghanouj is one of my favorite dishes from middle eastern cuisine, EZ Shawarma does an excellent version. Also impressed by their Lamb Chops at $24, serverd on Basmati yellow rice with grilled vegetables. We also had chicken Shawarma entrée also served on Basmati yellow rice with grilled vegetables. We finished off with Baklava.“

“Been here a few times and finally decided to write a review. Prices are fair. Food is always consistent, warm, tasty, and portions are large. Haneeth Mandi was fabulous. Chicken was spicy and tender and juicy. Fall off the bone cooked perfectly. Rice was also fresh and cooked to perfection. They provide sauces that compliment the dish nicely. Love that this place has maintained the quality and their service is always friendly. Restaurant is clean and a good atmosphere to sit relax and enjoy a meal.“

“The food is so delicious. The people are very kind and so patient. The workers are so happy to help and work fast too. My family always comes here and my sisters and I love the vegan options. The owner is very kind and looks out for everyone with great conversations. They have a lot of delicious drinks. We are looking forward to coming back soon!“

“I took my family for lunch, we were found Afghan Kabab one of the most delicious restaurants, serving authentic Afghan kebabs, manto , Ashak, karayee and other yummy items. My kids loved it and we highly recommend this amazing place.
Thank you Afghan Kabab!“

“What a fantastic dinner. They walked around giving you cardamom coffee. Delicious and hummus plate with babaganous. So creamy and flavorful. Also they started you with eggplant dip and pickled vegetables with pita chips flavored with zatar. We ordered the potatoe garlic dip. Yes, that garlic burned my mouth but that's what's it's supposed to do. If you don't like garlic order something else. We split the kabobs platter. 2 different rices. We had lamb, chicken and sausage. All the food tasted fresh and succulent. I forgot pictures this time.. but we will definitely be back with a bigger group to try more. Ohhh I forgot their pita!! Best I've ever had. Fantastic service too. Please forgive all my spelling!!“

“Love Intimate House Session Wednesdays 8:00 pm-2:00 am and Sundays 2:00 pm-9:00 pm at Masada! Heartful house music with legendary DJs that connect to the soul! Thank you! Friendly and respectful venue to dance and free your mind and body! Love the bartenders are continiously evolving their non-alcoholic and mocktail beverage selection too! Thank you!

Love the summer months when Masada and Sultan's Market collaborate and offer outdoor dance parties on their beautiful and mindfully designed outdoor patio/terrace. Excellent! Don't miss this experience Chicago!“

“I recently visited Arzu Cafe and had a wonderful experience. I ordered the lagman, and it was absolutely delicious. The meat was incredibly soft, tender, and full of flavor. I also tried their manty, and it was just as good—fresh, juicy, and perfectly cooked.

The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, making it a great place to relax and enjoy a meal. The combination of delicious food and a comfortable setting made my visit very enjoyable. I’ll definitely be coming back to try more dishes. Highly recommend Arzu Cafe to anyone looking for authentic and tasty food!“

“I just picked up falafel and baba ghanouj and it has to be the best falafel I’ve ever had. I was coming back from Skokie and I wanted to go to Pita Inn on Dempster and it was too busy but I did not miss anything - this is better!“

“Friendly staff, cozy ambiance, & great service.♥️“

“Take it easy Mendel – You aren’t in Crown Heights anymore and you sure as heck ain’t in Kew Garden Hills. I want to give Taboun Grill 5 Stars – But, I would be telling the truth and that just isn’t right for this Tzadik/Mensch. We enjoyed our meal and particularly enjoyed the appetizers. My Goyish friend – who considers himself Israeli commented that the Hummus was watery. I have to agree with him! ;-) – Service – from our Wonderful/Beautiful Romanian Waitress was on point; - Our water was always kept topped off and the Kitchen ran efficiently and expeditiously to deliver the food to the tables in a timely fashion; - Restaurant was busy – not mobbed; - which is a good thing. Interesting take on the Laffa – I enjoyed my meal and left with a full belly. Highlight of the Restaurant was the incredibly Judaica artwork that adorns the walls. I hope they are selling these pieces – because they were gorgeous – just lovely. You definitely felt like you were in an Israeli/Middle Eastern Restaurant – Tables were comfortable and you didn’t feel crammed inside – like you would at Grill Point; But – this wasn’t Grill Point (Kew Garden Hills, Queens) – Lots of Yentahs and Mitzvah boys. Enjoyed it and would definitely recommend. Enjoyable meal with great food! Price was reasonable for a Kosher Restaurant.“

“The girls working tonight were super sweet and understanding. A+ for customer service delicious food and scrumptious hot fresh pita bread!“

“The best food & Staff very yummy 😋“

“Miraj Restaurant is absolutely excellent! The food is flavorful, fresh, and beautifully prepared — every dish tastes authentic and made with care. The portions are generous, and the menu has a great variety of options, so there’s something for everyone.

The staff is warm, attentive, and always makes you feel welcome. The atmosphere is cozy and comfortable, perfect for both casual meals and special occasions. Overall, Miraj delivers top-quality food and service every time — a definite five-star experience!“

“This restaurant is good and offers the most delicious and tasty food and fresh juices. I recommend it.“

“Such a beautiful place and such a beautiful reminder of homesick people like me :) Loved the Adeni Chai really good on the cinnamon. Visited early morning when it’s not busy so the atmosphere was very quiet. Love not having to drive all the way to Bridgeview to get some bomb chai!!“

“Wonderful food & service!“

“Its very delicious and authentic arabian shawarma and falafel.“

“Great food great service, I have steak and eggs and it was cooked to perfection And happy to dine in“

“Really good food I’ll recommend this place 😇👍“

“I’ve been here a few times and each time has been consistent and good. Parking is really easy and the weight is short even if it’s very busy. The food is fresh, the beef was really good. I was having a bit of a hard time hearing with the guy behind the counter because it got really loud at one point because they were so busy, And I think I was holding up the line but he was really patient with me which I appreciated. Great service and food. Everything was clean and fast service. I’d come back again!“
