For the past 6-7 years, Andies was our Friday night takeout go-to. Losing that tradition when we moved to Berwyn has honestly been one of the hardest parts of leaving the neighborhood. Devastating, in fact. Six years. Every (almost, be real people) Friday. That's a lot of chicken kabobs. We would usually order the grilled chicken kabob plate... nicely grilled, well-seasoned chicken with a rotating cast of vegetables. Sometimes onions, peppers, and zucchini; other times tomatoes and yellow squash. Whatever showed up, it was always good. It also comes with soup. I always go for the lentil soup, while my husband is firmly committed to the lemon and rice soup. If I can somehow find the time to go back to school for engineering, physics, and whatever other disciplines are required to invent a reliable instant transportation device; likely involving advanced mathematics, several Nobel-level breakthroughs in quantum mechanics, and probably a massive dedicated team of researchers; then I should theoretically be able to solve the problem of getting dinner delivered the 11 miles from Andersonville to Berwyn without it taking approximately 4 days, 23 hours, and 45 minutes in Chicago traffic (I route I've done too many times while moving). Question for Andies: if you have to physically place the dinners into the transport device, would I still be charged the delivery fee? Just trying to think through the logistics here. read more

May 2, 2026: Meh. The quality is gone. Poor service and Gyro meat served dry and lukewarm. Been awhile since eating here and used to be a favorite standby. Something has drastically changed and won't be coming back. read more

We ordered via Uber Eats and tried: - Chicken Breast Kabob - Chicken Kefta Kabob For the price you get a good amount of food and they also come with a side soup and pita. For soup we tried the Lentil and am not 100% sure on the other, it had rice and chicken - pretty good. Overall though it was just ok, the flavors didn't wow me. In person it may be better! read more

I had quite the experience eating at this establishment. We stopped in during Andersonville Sommerfest, so the place was practically empty, but it didn't disappoint. My beau had the leg of lamb dinner, which was tender and very tasty, and he was very pleased. I had a Mediterranean salad which chicken, which I enjoyed immensely, but watch out for those olives, because they still have the pit in them. I definitely will be back to try some of the other specials on their menu. Our waiter was very attentive and my glass was never empty long. Check this place out if you want good food and a nice ambiance. read more

Service has been going downhill for past two years. Delivery orders can take 2 hours+ and there is almost always an item missing. Worst was when we ordered tilapia and received catfish instead. read more

Tasty! Service can be a bit hit or miss depending on who was there that night. That said, they have great options for different diets, including options for those of us with gluten allergies or celiac. read more

Andies Restaurant - CHICKEN BREAST KABOB - Greek Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I had a wonderful experience dining in at Andie's on a quiet Thursday evening in September. There were very few people in the restaurant despite prime dinner time which surprised me considering how good this place ended up being. There was ambient dim lighting with lit candles and open air coming in from the nice warm day - very romantic. The service was fast and attentive, and the menu had a lot of tempting options but I settled on the Mediterranean light pasta while my boyfriend got the curry chicken couscous, and both came with delicious sides of either lemon chicken or lentil soup. Both were fantastic. We also had dolmates for an appetizer and I'd highly recommend. All our food was bursting with flavor and the owner checked in on us after the meal concluded to ensure we had a great experience! read more

Andies Restaurant - MEDITERRANEAN LIGHT PASTA - Greek Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

My girlfriend and I had a coupon for this restaurant, so we checked it out a few weeks ago. We're always in search of great food and great service anywhere we go, and normally we just get great food. Andie's was the first restaurant we received both, as I've never had a better experience in terms of service. Food was great, and they gave me a glass of sangria for free. Will be definitely visiting this place again soon, and I hope it's around for a long time. read more

The food and service here was so amazing! We had the best waiter Abby. She was extremely kind and attentive and had great recommendations. Delicious! read more

I have always enjoyed the mojitos that Andies serves during street festivals but have never actually dined in the restaurant, now I have; and I am happy to report that the food is good, the atmosphere cozy (especially by the fireplace) and the staff friendly and attentive. My wife and I shared a meal and it was plenty for both of us. Worth noting that the menu is well done, it clearly denotes in house favorites, vegan, vegetarian, and gluten free options. We shall return! read more

Andie's is such a treasure in Andersonville!! The food is always amazing and the staff is so kind. We so appreciated that the owner stops by our table every time to make sure everything is great. Their pomegranate chicken is my absolute favorite! This has become one of our neighborhood go to's. read more

Andies Restaurant - POMEGRANATE CHICKEN - Greek Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

We were there on a Thursday. Pretty empty. Was 1/2 price martinis. They were so weak that after 2 I still didn't feel a thing. Not worth it. Also were charged full price and had to remind them of special. Food was just so-so. Bathrooms have a smell coming up from drains. Not very pleasant smelling. Pita is still phenomenal and the hummus was good, but that's about it. read more

Great and tasty generous portions. The service is good and the staff is polite and friendly. The restaurant is in the heart of Andersonville. A must visit! read more

Andies Restaurant - HOUSE COMBO KABOB - Greek Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I just love this Mediterranean place. It's nice and cozy and the food is so good. On this night, we came to try their vegan dishes, and we were not disappointed as always they served great food. I had the Moraccan Eggplant served with Dill rice, my favorite of course and lentil soup. My wife tried the Portabello & Lentil with Dill rice as well and lemon soup. Both were delicious and plenty to take home for lunch. We also had the Hummus dip sampler tray and non alcohol drinks. For desert, my wife had a scoop of ice cream with chocolate syrup. Tatiana, our waitress was great. read more

It pains me to write this review. We've been frequenting Andies for over 20 years and the past two times we've ordered from them it's been bad, with last nights meal being inedible and plain.... Gross. What happened? It used to be on of our regular go tos. Now I'm not sure I'll be coming back. It's sad. The food lacked flavor and one of the dishes resembled chicken but not what I ordered and not edible. In the baba, I found a hair. The whole meal was tossed in the trash. read more

If you're looking for a meal that delivers both flavor and comfort, Andies is a must-try! The Saganaki is a perfect start--crispy, golden, and perfectly cheesy, with a little flare of excitement when the flame hits the table. The almond-crusted tilapia is another standout; the crunch of the almonds complements the delicate fish, while the dill rice is fragrant and a refreshing balance to the dish. And let's not forget the Greek cheesecake, it's rich, creamy, and just the right amount of sweetness to end the meal on a high note. But the real gem here? The lentil soup. It's always spot on--hearty, full of flavor, and comforting in every bite. It's the kind of dish that feels like a warm hug on a cold day. Everything tastes fresh, well-balanced, and expertly prepared. A great spot for anyone craving fresh, delicious, and satisfying Mediterranean flavors! The service at Andies really takes it to the next level! It's like dining with friends, everyone is so welcoming, and they remember your name, which makes the experience feel even more personal. You can't go wrong with the homemade sangria, either; it's the perfect mix of fruity and refreshing, with just the right kick. The Mediterranean Sea Breeze Margarita is also a must-try! It's a delicious twist on a classic, with vibrant, tangy flavors that complement the Mediterranean dishes perfectly. Great food, great drinks, and fantastic service. what more could you ask for? read more

Been coming here for 20+ years. Casual dining is experience. Always get the gyros and never lets me down. Service is friendly and attentive. Good for a large group. read more

Great food and ambiance! Lots of vegetarian options which is a big sell for Me! I went with a date and we both had a specialty cocktail that we enjoyed. I had the Moroccan eggplant entree and he had the beef kefta. We chose dill rice as a side and also both had a soup- I had the lentil and he had the chicken lemon. Everything was yummy! read more

First time in a long time that I've been to a Mediterranean restaurant. I am not the biggest fan but I will say their Pita Bread was really good, it comes warm and soft to the table. Our server was really kind, and attentive. For my entree I had the Trio sampler I believe, the highlight of the dish was the chicken and dill rice I chose as my side. I think for someone who enjoys Mediterranean food this would be a great place to try. Side note: FREE parking behind the restaurant (says it on the menu) but didn't know before we went so we ended up paying for parking. read more

For me, Andies is an alright Mediterranean restaurant if you need somewhere that's large and not too noisy with a good number of options available. This is location conveniently on a street with plenty of shopping, entertainment, bar, and other dining options nearby. Service is quick and efficient, and decor is fairly nice. Unfortunately, there's nothing special about the food. While it's served in large portions, I feel like there's fast casual options I'd rather go for over the food I had here. The lentil soup is warm with a nice consistency and provides a hearty option for the cold chicago winters. The Greek salad comes with nice crispy lettuce and a light flavored dressing. The gyro meat in the gyros platter was a bit underseasoned and not seared on the edges. The meat was soft, but not juicy. This did not have much synergy when mixed with the raw onion and tomato, probably since the tzatziki sauce had barely any flavor. The chianti braised short rib gave a sense of comfort food although the overcooked short rib detracted from the enjoyment of the dish. The amount of meat provided was fairly generous though. The carrots, spinach, onions, and green beans in red wine was a light accompaniment to the dish and didn't do much to help flavor the meat. The curry vegetable couscous was overpowered by too much curry powder which hid the flavor of the sauteed onions and peppers. The cous cous felt a bit undercooked which gave the dish a slight gritty texture. Overall, not a bad place for a social gathering. The food was alright but a bit light in flavor and could have had better textures. read more

Outside of the staffing issues that plague this place and many others like this place, overall this spot is fantastic and I can only go by my food experiences here even though you will see reviews on this yelp thread that talk about inconsistency. So far I've been nothing but happy...Yes the place will be empty and you will still wait to be seated due to one or two waiters on the job...oh well, it is what it is...At least they don't over seat the dining room and then work the 2 waiters to death and give bad service. On to the food...Everything I've had here has been fantastic...From the kebab skewers of different meats to the gyros platter to the little lamb spring rolls with ginger honey sauce and the soups and baklava...All delicious, well prepared and hitting all the right spots. Already looking forward to go back. read more

We have been long time customers of Andies, just never got around to doing a review for them. I have always enjoyed my meals there and that is why it was a go to place for our Xmas Eve dinner. Our family has been getting together with friends for Xmas Eve for the last 20 years. We always go to different restaurants: initially it was the Signature Room for dinner after spending the afternoon on the 95th floor for drinks. But as our group expanded from 3 to 20 people at times, we had to shift gears and find places to accommodate us. Fast forward to this year with COVID. Not only were we not going out to eat, but definitely were not going to be hanging out with that many people. But we still wanted to do our Xmas Eve thing. I was looking around for something to order so I would not have to cook and one of the two people we had invited over was not a big fan of Italian (so no Calo's). So I took a look at Andies catering menu. Since it was only going to be five of us, I ordered the Andies Classic Pack for $59.95. This serves 5-6 People and for the price, it is an amazing and tasty deal. The pack came with Chicken Kabob, Chicken Kefta, Beef and Lamb Kefta, Shawerma, Hummus, Greek Salad with Greek Dressing, Basmati Rice, Tzatziki with house made yogurt sauce and a dozen Pita (served warm and cut in half). I love the food here and I am telling you, this is good value for the money. In addition to this pack, I also ordered the spinach pies and the Dolma (a favorite of The Doctor and The Queen). Folks there was plenty of food, so much that we had left overs. Unfortunately I did not take any photos of the food before dug into it, but the picture below was the left overs after we all had eaten. They also offer a chicken kabob and gyro pack for $99.95 and $95 for 10 people, so I am guessing you could feed 15 based on what we got. This a great place to order to meet everyone's needs: meat lovers, chicken, lamb, vegetarians, they have it all. Definitely will consider ordering from here again the next time I have a "party". read more

The food wasn't great. The hummus starter was smaller than I hoped it would be. The rice was crunchy. The man filling water and bringing pita was great! The rest of the service was generally slow. It wasn't crowded, either. read more

Slowly getting back to normal life, we ventured to Andies. Bear in mind that we'd not been for ages. The restaurant décor was the same except for a colorful, lighthearted bird mobile in the center of the restaurant. As one dips their toe back into the restaurant scene, what was nice as well was a number of tables at the front with open windows. We felt comfortable. But what about the food? What about the service? Andies always had a shining personality and they still do. They always had good service and they still do. Before, the food was goodish; now, based on what we had on our last visit, it's reached very goodish status. From cocktail to appetizer to entrée to dessert all was very, very enjoyable. The martini cocktail was called 'Don't Mess With Me'--extremely well-crafted. Ordering off the special menu, I had the mint pea soup (almost clear broth with supporting ingredients), bass with pistachio crust (moist fish, tasty and a subtle add-in with the pistachio), and cheesecake with graham cracker crust. Asked the server for advice on the cheesecake--he didn't offer an 'everything's good'. He offered past reactions of those who ordered it. Hoping for a great ending to the meal, I took the chance of having lame, boring cheesecake, but ended up with a final wonderful treat for the evening. It's refreshing to see a better now than before. read more

It was pretty standard Greek fare. Nothing mind blowing. It wasn't crowded so that was a great opportunity for dinner conversation without having to yell. read more

As a business professional myself, I cringe every time I witness or encounter a front line employee doing something stupid that ultimately causes the establishment to lose money and customers. Last night, my lady friend and I arrived around 8:20 pm. There was literally two of us. This establishment was about 70-75% empty. We were meant by the hostess, she asked if we had reservations? We informed the hostess that we did not have reservations, but asked if it was needed. The hostess informed us that their establishment normally only takes reservations... We looked around and literally saw 70-75% of the restaurant clear with open and clean tables, therefore, we were little confused. In addition, the establishment was scheduled to close at 10pm, which was about a 100 minutes away. Was the establishment expecting a rush of people to come in during this time??? I am not sure, it clearly made zero sense. Nevertheless, we asked how long before we could get a table, the hostess informed us that it would be about 20 to 25 minutes. Really? Okay, we took a seat directly in front of the host stand, but immediately started to call other restaurants in the vicinity. The first restaurant I called was an establishment named Fiya (which was actually busy, we saw this with our own eyes as we walked by). Fiya informed us that they would seat a party of two immediately, therefore, we walked out of this establishment and took our business to Fiya. I must state, the hostess was very kind and professional, but clearly and sadly caused a negative impact on this establishment. When in doubt, always seek management approval if you do not have the authority to do something. We should have been seated and taken care of immediately. This was our first and lasting impression of this establishment... There's plenty of restaurants in Chicago, we will never return. Lastly, there is a restaurant next door by the name of Rezar's, I highly recommend it. read more

Always liked this place but dang...inflation done ruined a good thing. Ordered the same thing I been ordering for years and the portions were *significantly smaller* Same price. Used to get a whole pita wrap now its just a pita pocket. Too bad, wont be returning. read more

So we made a last minute reservation for Valentine's Day here. We have done it before because the restaurant feels like a special occasion for us. They were very short staffed (only 2 servers for the whole restaurant) and they very apologetically informed us there would be a wait even with the reservation and the reason why. More often than not, that would have put us off staying, but we were looking forward to the evening, so we waited probably about 15 minutes. And also, COVID has taught us to be more patient. Definitely worth it. Our server was so great. Making recommendations when asked, attentive without hovering, we didn't feel like they were short staffed. Started with Saganaki, of course, which is a must - served with a flame and flourish and a full-hearted "Opa!" Complimentary soup was offered for waiting. Both of us had the lemon chicken and rice which was warming on a cold evening. Our entrees were chosen with great guidance from the server: Tunisian Chicken and Artichoke and the salmon and shrimp dish. Both were just what we needed for a wintery special occasion dinner: hearty and plentiful. Finished off with sharing the tasty baklava and the most amazing Turkish coffee served in delicate Demitasse cups with deep, bold rich flavor. Please patronize this Andersonville staple. We've never been disappointed. read more

Stopped in here after deciding that we needed some sustenance, as we were drained from our day traipsing around, holiday shopping in Andersonville. It was the perfect spot. We shared the dip sampler platter (hummus, harissa, baba ganoush, and potato dip) and artichoke hearts with olives. Everything was fine. The pita was plentiful. I was also really surprised to see a mocktail section on the menu. It's possible we didn't get the full experience, as it was sort of an awkward non-meal time, and everything was perfectly pleasant, I'm just not sure I'm excited to rush back and try other things on the menu, but only because the list of places I want to go is really long. Our bill for these snacks for the two of us was $20 pre-tip. read more

Food was average. Went for Thanksgiving dinner..Waitress was the worst I have ever seen .No greeting, not once did she come to our table to ask if we needed anything ..One and done with this place .Bill for 7 was 270.00 But the tip of 18% 40.00 was way to much. Work to hard for my money..After the pandemic you would think restaurants would be looking to keep customers ,with good service ....and wait staff ........not so here. read more

This food is school lunch cafeteria quality at best. My order last night was bland, flavorless (except for LOTS of salt), and uninspired. Do actual people with actual background in this culinary style make this food? To describe it as Mediterranean would be a lie. DO NOT EAT HERE. read more

I'm a big fan of Andies. They are a great go-to spot for dine-in, delivery, and carry-out. Per a recent dine-in experience, I was reaffirmed with my appreciation for this spot. Hummas- on point and so fresh. Baba Ganoush- delicious! Falafel- very small and crispy Tabouleh- yum! Veggie Mousakka- huge portion!! Spinach pie- quite enjoyable. Veggie combo plates- great value and perfect for vegetarians with all kinds of food interest. Finally- the pita is just so addicting. You cannot stop putting hand to mouth! The pita is fluffy and warm and not too dense. I will be back again and again :) read more

Ordered from Uber Eats. When driver showed up it wasn't our order. Working with the driver I contacted the restaurant and we figured out a different driver took our order. Andie's staff worked to remake our order and get it to us quickly. Props to the staff and manager for making it right! Food was yummy plus. Babaganoush was stellar, as always. Pitas are the best in Chicago, no doubt in my mind. The vegetable mousaka I ordered hit the spot and my wife gave two thumbs up to her lentils and portabella dish. It could have been a fiasco but Andie's made it right. I've been a long time customer and will be one for years to come. Thanks. read more

Our group of four recently enjoyed dinner at Andies in Andersonville, have not been here in years! They have a diverse Mediterranean menu, including Lebanese, Greek, Turkish and Moroccan dishes. We tried appetizers including falafel, hummus, spinach pie, and the excellent crunchy burek rolls with tasty dipping sauce. My main course was the saucy lamb osso buco with green beans and polenta. I also tried my friends' selections including pomegranate chicken, biryani rice and couscous. Our helpful server brought out a tray of dessert selections, so we chose flan, tiramisu and baklava to complete our meals. Lots of good eating this evening! read more

After many years, we decided to give Andies another try. Hubby got a gyros sandwich deluxe and I got their braised short ribs with mashed potatoes and veggies. Also got an order of hummus. The gyros was average, but okay and certainly the portion was decent. My short ribs were okay as well, though there was a slight bitter taste to it. I will try and doctor up my leftovers. There was plenty of food, but it was all piled into one of those round aluminum containers. with no attempt to separate the ingredients. It looked more like stew. As for the hummus, it was absolutely tasteless. If I didn't know it was supposed to be hummus, I would never had guessed. Very disappointing. Delivery was prompt and packaging was good (except for mushing my short rib dinner together. I don't mean to sound harsh, but when you spend between 40 to 50 bucks for something you feel is "meh" and you have such fond memories of Andies when they first opened ..... well, one must speak up. read more

Went in, got a table, noticed the seats had food pieces on then. We were going to move to another table, but realized that wasn't any cleaner. We asked if they cleaned their seats and got a response "if they're dirty"... enough said. We left. Gets two stars for the benefit of the doubt that they have good food, but we won't ever be trying it. read more

I've eaten at Andies off and on for many years. I was introduced to the best moussaka (eggplant) that I have ever eaten to this day. This was when Andies was just a tiny restaurant. They just don't have the same quality of food anymore. I love their dill rice and baba ganoush. But I simply got a skewer of grilled chicken and the chicken was like rubber. This is a basic dish that should be tender and juicy. And the music was elevator music. Play some middle Easter music that fits the food but not elevator music. The moussaka was good and looked good but it's not that original recipe that they had years ago. read more

Food was good, but waiter seemed annoyed. Ordered an appetizer (Dolmades), which were great but heavy on the sauce. Also ordered two entrees- Gyros and Chicken Kabob. They were good. I have had better but they were not bad. Sangria was ehhhhhhhh okay. Probably wouldn't ever order a cocktail from Andies again. read more
