What People's Say About Place

I just brought the food like 20 minutes ago, and I had low expectations AT FIRST, but now when I saw the food and tried it, it was a great amount to fill you up, and it was quick too. The food was scrumptious and filled with flavor, specifically the falafels, and #1 combination. This place is a go to spot for a quick lunch, dinner or even snack, chill atmosphere too, great service, the person was very nice and I appreciate that. Overall this restaurant is a go to spot and I recommend trying.

Kebabs? We just discovered a spot right near our area , and I wish I had found it sooner! I ordered the combo with chicken and steak and my husband ordered chicken, beef and steak combo—absolutely heavenly. We loved everything: the meats, the hummus, the salad, and the pita. And since it’s a full plate, we even get to take some home and enjoy every bite again. Definitely a must-try place!

We booked for a party of 50 in this lovely cozy restaurant. Didn't know how the outcome will be it being a big party. The food was amazing. Cap off to the chef. The most tasty meat I've had in a long time. This competes with the top names out there and surpasses alot on the top of the list. From the chicken kabob to the filet kabob. So tender. The kifta was my favorite although hard to chose what was best.. the falafel and hummus that was served while waiting for the main course was on the dot.

Everything was so good, it’s all homemade, and it’s all Halal certified. The owner has over 30 years of experience, and it really showed through the cooking. The kebabs were so juicy. The rice was soft and fluffy, no complaints, and it was a little earthy from the quinoa essence. My favorite kebab I tried was the Beef Kifta Kebab. Tender and moist. I love Baba Ghanoush, just the smokiness really tingles my taste buds, never had a bad baba ghanoush if we’re keeping it a buck. They also do a lot of catering, and you need to save room for dessert. Their homemade Dubai chocolate was the best one I’ve tried, it’s super crunchy from the shredded phyllo dough, and just irresistible, so we got more to go. The Dubai Chocolate brownie was also a showstopper, same flavors as the Dubai chocolate, but more dense from the brownie aspect. Give this place a try, you won’t regret it.

Absolutely amazing! Food -excellent!, service- friendly and polite!, oh me and my husband coming back!!

I have eaten at many a restaurant of this style in the Chicagoland area. What differentiates this one is the quality of the meat and the kindness of its employees. The chicken and beef was of a very high quality. I will be eating here again.

The food is more than excellent. Thank you for the best and delicious food, really enjoyed it.

My husband and I order the BOGO platter and it’s phenomenal every single time. Deliciously seasoned white meat chicken kebab, perfect falafel, amazing rice, hummus, and pitas. This is such a value! So much food for the price!
