Decent food, ordered a tabouli and was sour. Let the waitress know and the owner told me it's always fresh. I told him it's not about the money it's about being honest. He went into the back and decided to make a new batch after being caught. Never again I will go there.
I saw this place on CBS channel 2 and wanted to try it; it was as good as they said and even better, best falafel ever and so inexpensive. My wife had the lamb kabob which was zabiha per the certificate they have showed me was very good per my wife.
I asked the arabic seller, told me Beef is not Zabihah, lamb and chicken are Zabihah. Kifta is mixed lamb and beef. Ask for lamb Kebab. Not cheap and Oily food, good if you want to eat halal.
usually chicken and lamb is halal.owners assured it. clean, a quick bite place. no ideal for family or business
shawarmas are good enough to give restaurants in Dearborn, MI a run for their money
Food is excellent I do recommend it. Their falafel is the best. The prices are very very low. It is clean, yes it is clean. people are friendly.
there is a very limited hallal menu, but the food is good. I would recommend it to anyone who lives in the area, but not worth driving out of the way for
Food is so so, but the kicker is you don't get much for what you pay, plus they charge for condiments, and oh yeah ... NOT ZABIHA!. Go to pita inn, atleast the food is better/same, and they'll let you know which dishes are zabiha.
I asked them if they served anything Halal. They said no, nothing.
I have been here at least fifteen times. Pretty good Lebanese food. Usually hits the spot. The last time I went (2 days ago), the portions were quite nice, with a dinner including a lot of meat, and hummus, a warm vegetable saute and a nice salad. The last few times before that were a little bit unsatisfying due to small portions for the price. The service is friendly and the location is quite nice, definitely something you could show to your friends. Until they become more reliable with the food quantity, I will refrain from the highest rating.
I only had similar food in Jerusalem. The prices are the lowest I had in chicago.
where do i start?? we ordered the mixed platter, falafel, hummus, baba ghanoush. everything came out fresh with taste out of this world. the iconic shape of the falafel is just the start of your journey biting into it. hands down one of if not the best falafel i’ve ever had. traveled 45 mins just for the falafel itself. their special recipe is truly something that can’t be replicated. the mixed platter has all the greats: tenderloin, beef kebab, and chicken. the tenderloin lives up to its namesake, it literally melts in your mouth from how tender it is. i believe it’s USDA certified. plus the pricing is super affordable for such great quality meats. happy to see this business continue to grow. they definitely have a lifetime supporter
