The Duck Gyros with Duck fries are amazing. You also have to try the Lamb Offal and the Pork Belly with Candied Green Figs. Just order all of the small plates!!
Try the half roasted chicken it is brilliantly made and just the right portions. My buddy Mike tried the Lamb shank and it was made with a bed of rice. He loved it.
Great lamb burger. For cocktails, pick from the menu. Bartenders need more training in off menu classics.
Lamb burger is a must, but the portion is minuscule. Dessert's also pricey.
Lamb burger is a must. Its accompanying chickpea fries are revolutionary.
Come for lunch and get the lamb plate with dill rice.
We Enjoyed the Lamb and Beef Koubideh. Dill Rice was more moist than the more famous persian restaurants. Ample servings and great service. Nice cozy atmosphere.
You can't go wrong with the: beef koubideh, lamb koubideh, or chicken skewers. Order medium. The dill rice with saffron is moist as always. Love the cheese and bread amuse. Ask for their spicy sauce.
steamed lamb and coriander dumpling is mandatory
Had beef and coriander + lamb and carrot fried dumplings. Excellent! Service was a little lacking, but didn’t really mind when the food was so good and the price was reasonable.
Great food and service. Preferred the beef and lamb and pork to the seafood dumplings. But everything overall is delicious. Cool to see the open kitchen and the team making the dumplings as well!
The lamb curry and seafood empanadas were perfectly spicy and delicious!!!! Very big portions for the most part. Best leftovers ever!
Had the Yassa Lamb with rice and plantain. Well seasoned and tasted great.
Dibi lamb, dibi chicken both with djolof rice! Unbelievably delicious!!!
Best shawarma I've had in Chicago. There is a hint of rosemary and citrus that really take the meat to another level. The braised leg of lamb is delicious too!
The chicken shwarma and braised leg of lamb wraps are top notch. Not overly dressed but flavorfull the whole way through.
Braised lamb wrap is amazing!
GET THE LAMB CHOPS! Get the lamb anything! Also, their lunch menu is MUCH cheaper, if you dont mind stopping by outside of dinner hours.
Amaaaazing everything! Love love love the lamb. Best meat I've had anywhere. Make sure you come with an empty stomach and some Pepto for afterward because you will be aching from how much you eat!
Try the lamb chops, pork ribs, and the garlic beef.
Have the roast lamb shank with curry aioli - amazing when layer with the hardboiled egg, pocked grapes and crispy onions.
This is simply heaven lamb ribs oh! My gosh.
You can ask for a tasting menu- the lamb and lemon cake were out of this world. I occasionally dream about the lemon cake.
The beef tartar, lamb and roasted chicken were great. As was the potatoes bravas and corn. The pork confit was meh in comparison. We ordered all of the desserts for our party and loved the avocado ice
Meatballs, falafel, lamb, cocktails and the gnocchi
hummus with lamb - good share plate option - chef exhibits a great potential and we are excited to see what's next...
I highly recommend ordering the polenta fries, black eyed peas, lamb ribs, duck confit, and veal. Great spot!
Fantastic cocktails - get the moscow mule or the champagne/angostura bitters combo. Amazing food - highlights were the lamb popsicles, steak tartare and fried manchego cheese balls.
Really small restaurant but great ambiance. Crispy black peas, fried brussel sprouts, and especially the lamb rack are not to be missed.
Get yourself the lentil soup and a lamb wrap and you're set!
I enjoyed the lamb kabab and the baba ghanoush. My fiance liked the chicken shwarma.
I love the lamb kafta and their fresh lentil soup
Greek offering in Lincoln Park. The atmosphere, design setting is awesome. Staff is friendly, wine list amazing and the food-Epic. Try the Kataifi Prawns, Octopodi (pic) and Taverna Style Lamb Chops!
The pork, lamb, saganaki, and ouzo are crowd favorites.
Loved the grilled octopus, moussaka, cocktails, and lamb chops. Zucchini chips were also good!
Brunch is amazing! Get the kurdish breakfast for two. Also-- anything with lamb for dinner. Their lentil and goat cheese soup was amazing. We keep going back!
