“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!“

“Had such a great experience at Port of Peri Peri! The food was absolutely delicious and full of flavor, but what really made our visit special was the service.

Everything tasted homemade and authentic, and the meal really hit the spot. If you’re looking to try Eastern European and Central Asian specialties, this is definitely a place worth visiting. We’ll be back to explore more of the menu!“

“For a few hours, my friend and I thought we were actually in Kyrgyzstan. Amazing hospitality, absolutely delicious and authentic flavors.

Fav dish was the lamp soup. The portion size was way bigger than we thought and prices were very fair.

Chicken breast was very well flavored and grilled and we got that with palov which is served with beef slices and carrots which we really enjoyed too!

Beef Samsa was on point as well!

Looking forward to coming back with a bigger group!“

“Great selection and halal!“

“Halal Guys is my go-to spot for lunch! Food’s tasty, fries are top-notch, and great portion sizes for the price (regular platter is typically two meals’ worth).
Shout out to Baba and Ms Moore for always bringing good energy and even better service to the shop!“

“One of the best mandi spots I’ve tried in Chicago! The mutton mandi platter was absolutely amazing—perfectly cooked, flavorful, and satisfying. The service was top class as well—Ahmed was incredibly nice and made sure we were well taken care of throughout. Highly recommend!“

“Delicious Somali restaurant in Chicago suburbs. My first visit to a Somali restaurant and I was pleasantly surprised. Food was pretty good. Loved the Goat with rice and vegetables. Their tea was good too. Didn't care much for the orange juice made from concentrate. Lady at the counter does all the billing and orders. She spoke decent english. Had to wait to use the bathroom, which was not gender segregated. Interior is very basic, but food makes up for it.“

“Very delicious tacos, mango lassi, chicken spring rolls!“

“Went there for the first time. The staff was very welcoming and helpful after they realized it was our first time. The food was fresh and delicious. We got chicken sandwiches, fries, and mac. We don't live in the area but when we come by we'll definitely stop by again for some food.“

“I tried this place for the first time earlier this week and had a really great experience 🍔😋. I ordered their classic burger with a side of fries, and both were super tasty- simple but done really well 👌🔥. The portion was satisfying, and everything came out fresh and flavorful.

What also impressed me was the price adding a soda still kept the total just a little over $10, which feels like a great deal these days 💸👍. On top of that, the people working there were genuinely kind and welcoming, which made the visit even better 😊🙌. Overall, it left a really positive impression, and I’ll definitely be coming back again!“

“I’m so glad Dave’s Hot Chicken brought back the Hot mozz bread! It was a real highlight, and it’s great to see them being creative again. I also love that Dave’s isn’t stingy with their special sauce, setting them apart from so many others. I really hope they keep innovating with fun items like corndogs,keep up the great work!“

“Great place for Eastern European and Central Asian food. You must try the hearing salad and the honey cake. The service is wonderful. The place is slightly rundown, but the food is delicious. I came here for Ukrainian Borsch and Plov. Recommend everything.“

“I understand that it is small. it reminds me of Harold’s Chicken but it has burgers! Service went well and the food! It’s a good place for lunch when you are living in the Loyola University area!“

“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!“

“A must try spot! Great food, coffee and atmosphere! Definitely recommend!“

“Amazing food, very reasonable price. Huge portions and great customer service!! Also free parking and authentic Bangladeshi, indian and Pakistani cuisine absolutely amazing!! Can’t wait to come back here again.“

“Always delicious! Always accommodating…over the past five years I’ve experienced feeding from 3-30, and never disappointed! The service is always great! They take huge pride in their food and work. We just had a party for 30, and I should have just put out a banner so people would stop asking me where the food was from 💖. All were very impressed!“

“Stopped by Hot N' Spicy Chicago on Devon Ave for a late-night bite and was impressed. Grabbed the Chicken Chutney Roll—tender chicken wrapped in a soft paratha with a tangy chutney kick. Also tried the Masala Fries, which were crispy and packed with flavor. The staff was friendly, and the place had a cozy vibe. If you're in the area and craving a flavorful halal meal, this spot is worth checking out. Definitely coming back to try more of their menu.“

“I usually LOVE this place. But the food has been very inconsistent lately at the Troy, MI location. I get the same thing every week. And every week it’s a little different. I get the mixed platter. Last week there was no sauce, and I always order extra on the side, but the little cup was only half full. So, no sauce on the platter, and barely any on the side. This week there were more onions than gyro/chicken. Barely any meat; very meager portion. And still, side of sauce only half full. Super disappointed. I’ll give them one more chance, then I’ll have to stop giving them my business.“

“Amazing service, food, and experience. Can't wait to share this with my boys next time.“

“If you're a trucker stuck at one of the many yards waiting for your appointment time, and you don't have to worry about your diabetes or high blood pressure; go ahead and walk on down to Dave's Hot Chicken. If you do have to worry about it just take a walk.

I'll tell you, the fries and the Mac is pretty damn good. I went in when everything was freshly made, almost directly after opening. This was my first time trying it. Wonderful first impression. The slider was damn good too. Fried to perfection.... The young lady that served the orders also had excellent customer service. Y'all keep it up now.“

“Great place for grilled chicken . The side dishes are also good. Friendly staff always on point;)“

“Love the food and there open late!!“

“love this place! i order from here at least once a week!“

“Good stuff!! Everything was delicious, with the perfect amount of seasoning and juicy! If you want a solid sandwich come here. I don’t typically like sliced meats but the Reuben was amazing! Serai burger was delicious and juicy too, we will definitely be back!“

“Amazing biryani . Our server Rafee was awesome“

“Recently visited this restaurant and had an amazing experience. I ordered the mixed grill platter which included juicy kebabs, flavorful chicken pieces, delicious mutton kebabs, fresh salad, soft pita bread, creamy hummus, and perfectly flavored rice. Every item was fresh and well seasoned. The ambience was warm and welcoming, and the service was excellent throughout the visit. Definitely a great place for anyone who enjoys quality grilled food. Highly recommended!“

“💯 it’s the best place I recommended“

“Alright now… let me tell y’all about Dave’s Hot Chicken the way it deserves to be told…

Baby, them chicken sliders? Lord have mercy.
Crispy, juicy, got that sauce drippin’ like it got somewhere important to be, and that little slaw sittin’ on top actin’ like it’s healthy or somethin’. I keep goin’ back like I owe them money.

Now I’m not new to spice, alright? I can handle heat. I looked that Reaper level dead in the eye like, “Do your worst.”
…and it did.

Ate it just fine. No tears. No shame. Felt like a champion.
Few hours later? My stomach said, “Oh, we fightin’ tonight.”
So just know… you might win the battle, but your insides gonna file a complaint later.

Now let’s talk about this situation they had the nerve to call:
“Large Top-Loaded Spicy Buffalo Mac.”

Let me tell you what I THOUGHT I was gettin’:
A big ol’ tray of creamy mac & cheese, chicken piled on top, cheesy, gooey, worth every penny.

What I GOT was…
a mountain of fries…
with a light dustin’ of mac & cheese like somebody sneezed cheddar in the general direction.

$15.99 for fries in a mac & cheese costume.
I felt lied to. Betrayed. Misled. Hoodwinked, even.

But look… I ain’t gonna stay mad.
Because them sliders? They got me in a toxic relationship I ain’t tryin’ to leave.

And when it comes to catering? Oh they SHOW UP.
Order them boxes for the staff and suddenly everybody actin’ like you Employee of the Year. Morale goes up, complaints go down — it’s basically HR-approved happiness.

Final verdict:
Go for the sliders. Respect the spice.
And don’t let that “top-loaded mac” fool you unless you in the mood for fries wearin’ a disguise.

No stars for atmosphere, i always get it to go.“

“Food is mouth watering delicious. My daughter and I had the veggie tostini, oh my goodness, the best Turkish sandwich we have ever had. Owners are very friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend this wonderful restaurant. We will be back for sure 😊😊“

“Food is delicious and personal so nice“

“Ya Hala truly lives up to its name — a warm welcome from start to finish. The moment you walk in, the aroma of freshly grilled meats and spices wraps around you like a hug from home. The staff is attentive without hovering, and every dish feels prepared with real care. The hummus is creamy and rich, the shawarma tender and bursting with flavor, and the falafel has that perfect crispy shell with a soft, savory center.

What makes Ya Hala stand out, though, is its atmosphere — relaxed yet vibrant, perfect for both family dinners and casual nights out. Portions are generous, prices fair, and you leave both full and genuinely satisfied. Ya Hala isn’t just another Mediterranean restaurant; it’s a true gem that makes you want to come back again and again.“

“i did not like the chicken sandwich. I were there with my family . It is very expensive and special pizza was not the tasty .“

“Had an amazing experience at Mughal The Biryani House! Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious and full of flavor. The chicken lollipop was perfectly crispy and juicy, the biryani was aromatic and authentic, and the samosa chaat was just outstanding with the right balance of spice and freshness.
We also tried the butter naan with chili chicken, and it was one of the best combinations ever — soft, fresh naan paired with flavorful and spicy chili chicken. Even the drinks were refreshing and complemented the meal perfectly.

What made the experience even better was the customer service. The Kerala guy who helped us was extremely friendly, polite, and attentive throughout our visit. He had such a warm and welcoming attitude that it genuinely made us feel comfortable and valued as customers.
The food quality, taste, portions, and hospitality were all excellent. You can really tell they care about both the food and the customer experience. Definitely one of the best spots for Indian food in the area. I’ll absolutely be coming back again soon!“

“the lamb with spinach, mushrooms and potatoes was so delicious! Vegetable vindaloo was pretty good, but asked if there were green peas and was told no. There were a LOT. the garlic Naan was delightful“

“We’re visiting from Wisconsin and stopped in after a hectic day of getting our same-day passports before heading back home—and we’re so glad we did. The food was outstanding, especially the chicken, which was cooked to perfection. But what truly set this place apart was the hospitality. The customer service was hands-down the best we’ve experienced—nothing else even comes close. Thank you for such an amazing experience. We’ll absolutely be back the next time we’re in town!“

“We always walk past this on our walks, and it always smell amazing, so we decided to try it. We ordered the Plov and dumplings. It was delicious, the food is so flavorful and light. My kid is a picky eater, and she kept telling me how good was the food. The waitress was very attentive and made suggestions on what to order next time. We'll definitely go back.“

“Was lucky to be able to try their food. I’m a nurse and we were given food from idof as a treat during the pandemic ..it was delicious .“

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

“Love this place! Incredible birria! Try the birria quesadilla and elote!“

“Everything is delicious! Everyone is courteous and it's very clean and comfortable. Bring the whole family if your craving flavors. Come here often. Chicken is delicious. Chocolate cake out of this world!!!!“

“I ordered for first time the All in platter which gives u a little bit of everything.. n I tried the stuffed grape leaves and the chocolate cake.. 😋 the cake is more than enough reason for me to order from them again . the Rumi sauce is also very good.. not too spicy.. has a little kick..“
