NR I noticed the discussion about Zabihah vs Halal. I just wanted to add that Restaurant Depot has started labeling their meet as Zabihah Halal. Posted on December 28, 2014

★★★☆☆ Are you folks at Zabihah.com are so gullible to believe whatever a restaurant menu or the door sign says and then put that info in the 'Halal summary' ? Well, I confirmed with the owner of the Salam that they buy chicken from Jetro/Restaurant depot which is machine slaughtered. They also buy their gyros from the same place. The chicken from Jetro/Restaurant may be halal per label on the box but it's not zabihah...even the supplier of the chicken doesn't claim that it's zabihah so how can Salam claim that their food is zabihah. I wish they fully disclose to their customers. I hate to say this but when any middle-eastern restaurant claim that their food is Halal/Zabihah, I take their claim with a grain of salt. To me, it's not worth the paper it's written on unless the owner can confirm the source of their meat/chicken, which in this case happened. Posted on December 23, 2013

★★★★★ I believe the gyro isn't zabiha, everything else is. Make sure to ask. This place has the best hummus in Chicago, comparable to Dearborn restaurants. The garlic sauce is good too, meat and other entrees are similar to other restaurants. Overall decent prices, good service, comfort bale seating arrangement, best hummus in town.

★☆☆☆☆ Warning ( Some NON Islamic Zabiha in the menu ) BE CAREFUL ! I was there yesterday, My friends ordered Shawarma and I ordered Cheeseburger. We was talking that some of the restaurants menus contain not Zabiha Halal. one of my friend said that even Alsalam has some non-zabiha Halal items. I directly asked the employees there and one of them said everything is Zabiha Halal but directly older one said NO there is one is not Zabiha Halal but it is Halal. I said HOW COME ! he replied I really don't know how to tell you but what I mean is it is Zabiha but not islamic Zabiha !!!!! I asked him what is that meal , He said the Burgers !!! @#@$%#@. . I consider that cheating and dishonesty from the owner of the restaurant. I would never get back there , never ever. . anyway I found that this attitude is very common with Arab and Iranian restaurants where they mean by Zabiah Halal is that it is Zabiha but not necessary islamic, and whatever it would be Halal because it is Zabiha as many Muslim believe that Jews Zabiha is Zabiha Halal.

★★★★☆ This place serves "Business Lunch Special" but contrary to its name, it is served all day long seven days a week and it contains sheesh touq, kabobs, shawarma and falafel with salad, rice and pita bread only for 6.95...its amazing! The menu is simple and also carries some american fast food items They played some awesome arabic music! The ambiance was fairly decent. Situated so close to brown line! this is a great Arab neighbourood! There is a middle eastern sweets shop adjacent too! Posted on May 14, 2011
