North Ave. Falafel

Absolutely delicious food. Abu Rakan in Bridgeview and this place have the best shawarmas so far in Chicagoland. Rest is pretty much all Lebanese/Palestinian taste which is never a bad thing. But these two places are unique and I like em. Yesterday I went here and they were having an event and giving free food to people for their 7th anniversary. I felt welcomed and treated nicely like a brother. I recommend the Pakistani in the area to come and show them some love.

I stopped in for lunch around 11:00 am; I was welcomed warmly by the owners, reflecting the general cozy atmosphere of their dining room which was very clean with its attractive Mediterranean ambiance. I ordered the beef shawarma, along with a hummus plate and half a dozen falafel. The entire meal was beyond delicious, as all the ingredients were fresh, perfectly prepared, and very reasonably priced. The portions were very generous (they graciously wrapped the leftovers for me). I warmheartedly give North Avenue Falafel the highest recommendations.

1st visit today and ordered a chicken shawarma sandwich, baba ganoush and baklava to go. The sauce of the shawarma was amazing and the chicken, juicy. The baba ganoush had a perfect texture and wonderful smoky taste. The baklava...yum! Easy parking, friendly service, clean restaurant....I'll be back!
