I tried this Mediterranean food for the first time. I didn't expect it to taste good. I hope the chicken can be made more tender. The others are good and unexpectedly suitable for my taste. The service is very fast. Will come back. The only shortcoming is that I don't know why the restaurant smells burnt. But it doesn't matter. I will come back to try other delicacies.
Very delicious meal for lunch. Soft wrap with fresh salad and good quality of grilled chicken. They have unique salad dressing. When eating with herb fries, It's soooo good.
We got the lamb platter, falafel platter, and herb fries. All was delicious. The lamb was especially tender and well made. The portions were big enough for us to eat for lunch the next day as well.
While we were dining, there was another customer who was very upset that she believed her order would not be ready by the estimated pick up time, and demanded to see a manager and a refund. In the end, they had her order ready two minutes early. The staff was very patient and courteous with her despite being berated.
If you don’t know where to eat dinner this would be the place for date night. Had some grilled chicken platter with herb fries along with Izze green apple drink. And their flatbread is delicious handmade!
I ordered to go, one day a chicken shawarma platter. It came with many condiments, and was very tasty. However today I got two Lamb shawarma wrap and those were absolutely amazing. The lamb meat was very tender and the wrap was tasty. I'll come back again!
Stopped by randomly and got a steak shawarma salad and pistachio baklava and they were soo good. The salad had a lot of meat and the pita chips were very crunchy. Baklava was crispy on top and fragrant

I have lived across the country and this restaurant is the best Mediterranean I’ve encountered. I do not care if it’s the most authentic, for me it is the best. The homemade grilled flatbread is incredible. Everything is fresh and incredible. This place is a must. I have been going here for over 7 years now. A true staple of Chicago.
PS get the herb fries you will NOT regret it.
Found this place on accident, but I will be back. The Fresh Pita was amazing, the ri e was cooked perfectly and I had never had braised lamb. This is the Locksmith. I will check on your door today!
Their herb fries with kalamatta sauce are to die for. So so good. I wish everything else on the menu had the same standard in terms of taste. The braised lamb wasn’t that great. But overall a decent place to grab Mediterranean food. If nothing else, would definitely be going back for those fries.
This is my second time going. First time was for dine in and second time for take out. Both times we received great service . One of the best chicken shawarma wrap , size and taste. The previous time we had one grilled chicken shawarma platter and one grilled shrimp platter.
