Review Shibam Restaurant - Chicago

Isaac Motive
If you're in the mood to try something different, Yemeni food is the food to try. It has a uniqueness that makes it different than most other middle eastern cuisine. Shibam on Elston is the number one place in the city to eat authentic Yemeni food. Their food is always fresh tasty and the meat is so tender. Yes its very greasy but when you're cooking lamb on the bone, its definitely going to have alot of fat. The most popular dishes for me are the Lamb Mandi and Aghda lamb. I ordered delivery and took pictures so you can see what it looks like. They put a good amount of meat despite what the pictures look like.

Halal Mediterranean restaurant and food taste is average. Need to use street parking. Their gratuity charges is 3$ per person if the group is 5 or above and kids also counted. This is something not felt good and this portion will be more than a platter dish for the group. Family platters are reasonable price and it’s mandi rice with the grill items.

It's a wonderful place to eat Yemeni food such as mandi and Mutabaq. My orders were mandi beef and Mutabaq. Delicious. Also, the staff are friendly and helpful, I strongly recommend this restaurant. Thanks to everyone who works there.

Arabic Halal Food. Friendly staff. 5 Star for Chicken tawook, very juicy! Recommend this restaurant absolutely.

The meat kabsa was delicious, but the ma'soub was not delicious because the bread used tasted doughy and was not cooked well.

5 star for lamb Kabsa! Tender well seasoned fatty meat. Very generous amount of meat. One order is enough for two. It's similar to Hyderabadi biryani but better. Tried chicken mutapq too. It was a simple mayo chicken wrap that you would make at home, nothing special. The interior could be scaled up a little. Staff were quick and friendly. Will come back for their Kabsa!

My expectation was a bit higher. We ordered a bunch of items. In none of them the meat was salty enough. Part of the meat in Zurbian and Haneeth was just tasteless. Agdah was the only item that we genuinely enjoyed.

The taste and quality of food went down. I am visiting this location after couple years and its not the same (visited on 07May22 for dinner). You serve water but charge a dollar for water bottle without letting the customer know. Above all 3$ gratuity per person is charged. And who charges tax on gratuity?? You should do something better than this... It is not FAIR
