★★★★★ Happened on this place as we were leaving the Fashion outlets of Chicago and it was the best Shawarma I have had in the longest time. We tried both chicken and beef shawarma sandwiches- both phenomenal! We also got the combination platter which was amazing! Prices are very decent, one serving more than enough for one person( atleast for me). I have already returned for a second visit and have not been disappointed. Would highly recommend. Parking and seating are not a problem- nothing fancy but clean and decent.ok for families. Posted on June 15, 2017 |

★★★★★ Wow Mashallah excellent fresh food with super fast service. We were at Embassy Suites O'Hare right across from Rosemont for the Isna Conference. We sat down at the tables in our hotel and ordered takeout from here. It was excellent. We were really surprised how fast our order came. Posted on September 9, 2015 |

NR Hidden in the corner of the plaza with dunkin donuts and Chase bank, next to the Chinese restaurant Lin's Mandarin. Simple place. Good food. Ordered the chicken shawarma sandwich and tabouleh. Reminds me that a chicken shawarma is not a chicken shawarma. Completely different than the chicken shawarmas I grew up with in Dearborn but excellent! A refreshing taken on the sandwich. Would def recommend trying. Posted on May 16, 2014 |

★★★★★ We visited Chicago area from NY recently and discovered this restaurant as it was close to our hotel. Even with many options available in Chicago, we ended up going there twice in four days.
It is a little bit difficult to find, no clear signage, but in the same plaza as Dunkin Donuts. Find it, you will not be disappointed!
The place is not very fancy, but clean and it has a very fast, great food service. The staff was super nice, even after our family managed to spill soda and the waitress kept bringing new utensils to my kids without being asked (they dropped them many times), so very family friendly.
Our 6 yr old is not a big fan of meat and chose a lentil soup the first time (she loved it), but decided to have chicken the second time around after trying our food :)
The combo plate had some of the most tender beef that I tried in a long time. Fatteh with meat was very tasty as was falafel.

★★★★★ Visiting Illinois from the DC area and decided to stop by and check this place out after spotting it on Zabiha.com. All I can say is this place is by far the best middle eastern restaurant I have eaten at and I have been to places in the west coast, southern US and Northeast. Ordered the shawerma plate and was pleasantly surprised with my food. Tasted great and the portions were plentiful. Customer service is very good here. The cashier came and refilled our salad and checked on us periodically. Definitely coming back again Posted on December 25, 2012 |

★★★★★ This is fantastic food, and that's all you need to read. Besides that, the owners are pleasant, they post halal info, and they use quality, fresh ingredients. Go see for yourself. Posted on October 12, 2011 |

★★★★☆ Went to Dunkin Donuts yesterday morning and saw the restaurant. Noticed it did not show up on my trusty zabihah.com. Went to the window and saw the Zabihah Halal sign. So headed there for lunch. To my surprise was packed. Had to wait to get a seat. OPnce seated the service was quick. Food was delicious. I travel all over the country and have tried many restaurants. SO when I say food was good it was good. The fact the restaurant was full also meant the word had gottena round. I will definitely be back today to try the beef kabab.
Owners are Muslim and without me asking they advised me the food was zabihah halal.
I saw americans (white man) , arabs, iranian and pakistanis at the restaurtant. Posted on April 7, 2011 |
