“The food and service were amazing, my second time coming here for lunch and I’m blown away with the taste and quality of food. The staff is very friendly and answers any questions related to the menu. Would recommend to anyone - fantastic spot for some delicious Mediterranean food ??“
“I ordered from the catering menu, ordered mixed grill and shawarma; both had a reasonable quantity, and the food was made fresh and delicious.All the food was prepared within an hour.I highly recommend this place for catering and also for individual meals.I also usually get a shawarma combo for lunch, which is good.Give it a try. Don't just take my word for it. ?Vegetarian options: Falafel sandwich or plate“
“Worth the wait and must try! Beautiful and unique venue in the unassuming town of Des Plaines. Our server was kind and welcoming, food was delicious, drinks were fun and tasty. The only two items that were less than ideal, the horrible acoustics (incredibly loud) and although it was too on my list to try, the chicken shawarma rolls were underwhelming. Even with those two items, the great service and food quality it's still worth the 5 star review. We sat upstairs, which very much appreciated, being out of the hustle and bustle of the downstairs. Looking forward to trying the brunch and the outside patio... overlooking the water.“

“Foodwise, is truly a wonderful story, somebody in the kitchen knows what to do and that translates all the way to our braines stirring waves of good sensations.Their turkish culture habits, the hours limitation for certain types of food, do not always overlap with other's schedule or expectations. The staff is very polite and forthcoming but that's so much they can do.The atmosphere is a bit bizzare, the music for example, is not in tune with the specific, the way that the tables are set, suggests rather a train fare than a regular restaurant.Their sweets shop however, is there to take away all possible clouds and make your day.Parking: Plenty of parking“
“Vasili’s is our go to place for a nice dinner with friends in Naperville the food is always phenomenal, the service is friendly and fast, and the ambiance gives me a city vibe. Highly recommend for fun cocktails & delicious food. Order the appetizer sausage even though that seems weird, the Caesar salad that is way better than the norm, the lamb and shrimp skewers, the Feta Brined Chicken, and the fancy espresso martini - you’re welcome.“
“Had an amazing lunch!!! Food selection is amazing. I wound up with the Tuna Poke Bowl and it didn’t disappoint. Our waitstaff was attentive to detail. I am not a big dessert person when I go out, but the Key Lime Pie was calling our names. SOOOOO good!!! Thank you for a great meal. We will be back very soon.“
“They have extremely delicious food! Meat for every taste. Very nice and polite staff. I would especially like to mention Eduard, who tried to help with the choice of food and pays a lot of attention to everyone who visits. Definitely five stars! I recommend!“
“I was not thrilled initially, but let me tell you about their burgers.Have you ever had nostalgia for 90s burgers from the former post-soviet satellite countries? Well, those burgers come as close as you can get without getting a time machine. The meat. The sauce. It is all there.Worth a try.“
“The owner of the establishment was so nice and walked us through the menu when we told him it was our first visit to the restaurant! We ended up ordering a chicken shawarma wrap and the chicken was very well cooked and paired nicely with the garlic sauce, tahini, and fries. I really enjoyed the food portions as well and thought the prices were fair! There was plenty of seating the restaurant itself is well kept. I will definitely be back soon!!“
“Been here a few times and absolutely love the environment, so cozy cute and just simply a wonderful place to bring your significant other for a beautiful dinner date! Also food is zabiha halal and truly authentic Turkish! Chicken doner is amazing and so doner kabob mmmm!!!“
“I have tried other uzbeki/central asian restaurants but this one wins. THE Best uzbeki , Central asian food in chicago! The kebab skewers are charred/cooked to perfection. If you are a food lover and LOVE GOOD QUALITY MEAT this is your place. Alhumdulilah they are Halal and we enjoyed iftar here. Food came Out to the table in short time and was very hot and fresh! Amazing find and will definitely come back here often!!! This place is a MUST TRY.“
“During an unexpected additional day in the city caused by a cancelled flight leg, I ended up at a hotel near ORD. On a whim, I visited Sultan for lunch, a restaurant about which I knew nothing beforehand. It turned out to be an incredibly pleasant surprise. The food was remarkably fresh, brimming with flavor, and all at a very reasonable price. Fayez, the owner, personally takes care of his guests, and his hospitality is truly outstanding. His commitment to providing a memorable dining experience was genuinely touching and highly appreciated. So impressed by the warmth and quality of my first visit, I eagerly returned for dinner the same day, further making Sultan a highlight of my extended stay in the city. I wholeheartedly recommend this restaurant. If it were possible, I would give it 10 stars!“
“I've been to Dolce many times. The food is outstanding! The atmosphere is great and normally the service is excellent. This night in particular the service was a bit disappointing but we still had a great time celebrating my mom's 86th birthday.“
“I highly recommend the business and special. If you can get her at lunchtime, it's about half the price of what it will cost you in the evening. All the meats, chicken breast, steak, lamb, everything is just immediately delicious the rice is cooked to perfection. The tahini is amazing. The hot sauce is great. The salad is crisp and fresh and the peas are soft and warm, there is nothing like not here. I highly recommend it again if you can get her at lunch, you'll save a lot of money and have an amazing lunch experience.“
“If you are looking for hole in the wall Mediterranean place then Nay it is. This is the best Mediterranean food in the suburbs. The food is just delicious here. You can't go wrong with pretty much anything on the menu. I love the Nay Veggies and Falafel Wrap. My husband just loves the mix grill platter. Service is good and food tastes always fresh. The ambience is just ok, they got 6-7 seating tables, and the restaurant is clean. There is a parking in front of the restaurant.“
“Hands down the best slider trio I have ever had. Regular cheeseburger was terrific. Buffalo chicken with blue cheese was outstanding. But the winner was the pot roast slider. Wow. Tons of flavor and very juicy. We had never been to down Elmhurst and decided to try this gem. We will be back!!!“
“Amazing every time. I've been enjoying the food here for years and have never been disappointed. Great people making delicious authentic recipes out of a basic strip mall location, better tasting than Pita Inn or anything similar in the Chicago area at great prices.“
“Whenever I'm in Chicago I search for hidden gem foodie spots. I mean Chicago is literally foodie Heaven. We didn't dine in because we were trying to prepare for an event but I'm kind of glad we didn't. It's small and dark inside, and I felt like the tables were too close together. But they made up for it all with an AMAZING breakfast. I got the gyro skillet. Absolutely delicious!! The picture does it absolutely no justice.. I never thought of gyro as a breakfast item and now I know I need it often. There were huge portions of meat and amazing tzatziki sauce and nobody will ever call them stingy with the cheese because for every bite I got delicious feta cheese chunks mixed in. It was amazing. The pancakes were basic, there was nothing wrong with them but I'm not going to reminisce on them. But that gyro skillet!!! I can't wait to get it again“
“We catered for a birthday with 20+ guests last weekend. We met with Holly prior to ordering to discuss the size of the trays, amount of food needed, and both VG and GF options. She was very friendly and helpful. Our order was ready, warm, and complete when we picked it up. The amount of food was perfect and everyone in attendance thought all of the food was delicious and included great variety. Would do this again! Highly recommend Cedar Grill.Vegetarian options: Falafel, hummus, babaganoush, saladsDietary restrictions: Gluten free. Staff did inform us that the rice is not GF.“
“At first when I walk in there's no music playing and it's eerie. The atmosphere seems a bit sad. When he brought us the food that's where the focused changed. The food was good, just wished it would have been a bit hotter but there was flavor in the food. It kept us busy. He seemed to be friendly and kind with everyone he met. I am assuming he is the owner or some sort of management. I would recommend it for eating out but if you are looking to eat in maybe not a good idea if atmosphere matters to you.“

“Very helpful staff. We were visiting from out of town and hadn’t an infant that was growing hungry and grumpy. Staff were quick to assist and offered a bowl of rice and cucumber salad for our infant. They also went above and beyond and boiled water for our newborn so we can mix formula on the go! Will definitely be back again“
“I came here on a Sunday morning and was pleased with the service and food! My friend and I got seated within 10 mins and decided to split a savory and sweet option. The portobello mushroom focaccia was cooked very well and the portobello itself was very tender and paired well with the peppers and balsamic vinaigrette inside. My favorite item personally is the nutty Nutella waffle, but you should def come in with a sweet tooth if you plan on ordering it:)“
“If you’re looking for authentic, home cooked Chicago food Brandy’s is your place!! I love that it’s family owned and the food never disappoints. I’ve lived in the Chicagoland area my whole life and I’ve never had a better Maxwell Polish than the one at Brandy’s. The spicy feta gyros are another must try when visiting. The staff is always friendly and they have very fast service, even with their crazy huge menu! Anytime I visit family in Hanover park I make sure to get Brandy’s at least once a trip. Such a gem!“
“I took my mom here for lunch. We were surprised by the service and quality. It wasn't what we expected for a restaurant inside the mall. We had a margarita (excellent), lobster bisque, spinach and artichoke appetizer and salmon. It was delicious! The dessert was even better!! We recommend the red velvet cupcake and lemon ricotta cookie. We just wish they had cappuccino. They only serve regular coffee.“
“The food was soooo good. The falafel was crispy and fresh. We got something with cheese and was absolutely delicious ?. The zaa'tar with cheese was also good but the zaa'tar was a little thick. The fries crispy and seasoned well. The baba ghanoush was so good and filled with flavor. The hummus and shawerma on top was absolutely a fav. Will be coming back!“
“Visited here 3 times this year for the iftar buffet. It's was a very good experience all 3 times, mashallah. But I was a little disappointed in my 3rd visit. There were no vegetarian options in your buffet menu. I had a person with me who was a vegetarian and could not eat anything except your raita with fried rice. I would like to request the management to please have a couple of vegetarian options available in your buffet daily. Apart from that pleasant atmosphere friendly staff.“
“A nice local place. Good food, lot's of choices, always quick, and reasonable prices.Vegetarian options: Not a vegetarian place per se. But the choice variety is wide enough that a vegetarian like my mother can easily put together a good meal.Kid-friendliness: No playland but food is delivered quickly, and that helps with kids.Wheelchair accessibility: All ground floor, wide doors and wide aislebetween tables. So wheelchairs should have minimal dificulty.“
“We are regulars here, we always order online. There have been 2 times they have made a mistake. There was one time they had no Pitas and neglected to call us about (My boyfriend was very disappointed that time as that is why he goes here). There was one time we ordered delivery online and the wait was over an hour. I called them to find out what was taking soo long and it turned out they had no delivery driver that day. Would have been nice if I was called right when my order was placed. Ended up having them remake my food and I drove in to pick it up. They quickly corrected it by providing me a refund for the delivery free, a free meal, and a free drink. Overall our experience has been great! The last time we went they actually called me to inform me they were out of Beef Swarma and asked if they could substitute with Euro Meat. Overall, I would say our experience is good. The food is DELICIOUS! And when they are on it for service they do very well! We will be continuing to order from them.Dietary restrictions: I have both a severe Gluten and Dairy Allergy. I have yet to have a severe reaction from their food. They are one of the few places I trust eating at.“
“Great food great customer service clean restaurant! I highly recommend this restaurant! And guys if you’re reading my review when one of your customers communicates with you in Arabic please reply back in Arabic because it’s part of the customer experience going to such a restaurant to feel back home!the 1 missing ⭐️ was for that obviously!Parking: They have their own parking at Least 2 spots“
“Has so many choices of food from sandwiches to sea food and regular grill food ! The only thing Abt the Italian beef it wasn't as proportioned in meat compared to Portillos for example.. Great service and lots of seating to your comfort! Will definitely come back to try other meals !“
