Jessica LearApril 6, 2017Brunch 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!
Staff PicksMarch 22, 2017The colorful and eclectic cuisine of Kurdistan finds itself in Chicago for the first time at this sleek-yet-cozy Lakeview spot. Lamb and eggplant set the tone for dinner and weekend-brunch services.- Lucille FisherSeptember 5, 2023Amazing!Best to order share family style! Delicious grilled squid and grilled pulpo. But for me the star of the show were the lamb dishes-grilled and the unique lamb eggplant stew. Will be back 👍
Bill PeelerSeptember 22, 2017I've been here 3 times now - everything I've gotten is soooo good. Get the whitefish or the Mardin special and you won't go wrong. Staff is super friendly as well!
Onur OzgodeJanuary 14, 2018Great food, friendly service! Their mezes are fresh and delicious; kebabs are tasty. Kurdish brunch is delicious and huge!
Raphael MbarekJuly 7, 2017Fantastic food and great service. A bit noisy - so probably not re best location for a date. Ideally for a great evening with friends or family, tough.
MichaelJuly 18, 2017Breakfast for two is ridiculously good and surprisingly cheap. I felt like a prince as they brought out plate after plate of fancy looking stuff. And the tea! No words👌- ISC ChicagoNovember 13, 2021Lamb Shank (cooked in a house rosemary sauce, served over roasted veggies and rice)
Eoghan CosgroveMarch 12, 2017Delicious alternative brunch! Baklawa crepes and Turkish coffee both not to be missed! Will be back for dinner menu!
maite aJuly 29, 2017Surprising place. Baba ghanoush is a must try. I really appreciate that there are no tv screens and the music it is no loud
