I am a HUGE fan of Armo Grill. If you want an amazing meal, with incredible flavor and generous portions, this is your place. You order at the counter and then they bring the food to you in a very timely manner. It's a nice, cozy space, easy to park and there are always customers eating there and not just doing take out. When you do their combo meals, you pick your protein, a side, which is mushroom or rice pilaf or kasha, a salad and an appetizer. Their hummus is excellent. You also get a flat, stretchy pita type bread with it. There is the option of falafel or red beans for vegetarians. They also have a great lunch special during the week for only $10, which is an amazing price for how much food you get. I have a cousin that lives out of state, but whenever he is in town, he wants to eat here! The staff is always very friendly, and you can tell that the quality of the food is important to them. Definitely stop in for lunch or dinner. It will become one of your favorite places! read more

Armo Grill is near work and I finally checked it out with a group of colleagues. I got the lunch special which was a good deal. My only minor complaint is that the meat to rice ratio was a bit low (of course I forgot to take a pic of my plate). Everything was tasty and the portions are big! Everyone enjoyed their meal. The restaurant itself is clean with plenty of seating. It seemed slow at first but they had a good flow of customers, which was a bit surprising given how cold and dreary it was that day. It had snowed a lot a few days before; the parking lot wasn't really cleared which made parking a bit confusing and scary. Everyone working there was kind and helpful. I'll definitely be back to try more dishes! read more

The food here gets 5 stars. I've been here twice and have never left hungry. The menu is very simple. You choose a protein, a garnish (rice, potatoes, or buckwheat), a salad (house, cabbage, or Jerusalem), and an appetizer (hummus, baba ghanouj, or tabuleh). All very good! Nothing excessively spicy or greasy. I would recommend the combo plate because you can choose three different proteins vs. one for just a couple dollars more. I had the lula beef kabob, chicken, and steak. I can't say the staff gets 5 stars, though. The man working on Friday night didn't do anything outright rude, but he gives off very unpleasant and unwelcoming vibes. Also, tables are plentiful on a Friday night. Perhaps Armo Grill does a lot of takeout and delivery business, but you don't really have to worry about lack of tables or a long wait here. They also close kind of early at 8:00pm. Overall, I like the food here a lot, but there are a few things that need improvement. read more

First time trying and picked up from here. I WILL be ordering again this is amazing and authentic Mediterranean. I ordered the combo plate and it was all delicious, fresh, and phenomenal read more

We are visiting Chicago and just wanted a quick bite. I had the lamb kabob with mushroom pilaf and the Jerusalem salad. It was excellant!

Food is good. I ordered the lunch special which included a lula beef and chicken kabobs, salad, rice, and hummus all for under $10 as of the time of this. I also ordered lentil soup too. The soup was interesting, in the fact that it was more grayish-green, than the brownish color I'm use to. Regardless it was still good. Overall, good value for the amount of food giving, although the lunch special was heavy on the rice side. read more

Came here during a weekday for lunch. The place was not busy just before 12noon. There were plenty of seats. The food was made to order as it did take a bit for the food to come out. The rice was tasty and good, had decent flavor too it and it was not dry. The meats were flavorful and good, with the lunch special you get one of each kind, you don't get to chose anything. With the other meal you can chose your own sides. The meat portion for the steak was quite a lot as well. Overall a good experience. read more

I don't know, from their menu, exactly what might be Armenian, or Greek, or Mediterranean. But I don't care, I like all the food. The lamb in the kebab plate was some of the most tender I've ever had, and the bulgur with mushrooms was quite tasty as well. For a beverage, I sampled the carbonated yogurt drink. As an FYI, it says shake before opening, but if you do that, it will pour out when the cap is unscrewed. Instead, tip it gently back and forth. The background music was fun too, "deep disco" music by a Greek artist was playing during our meal here. I'm in this area typically at least once a year, and Armo is going to be a place I return for meals from now on. read more

Truly the definition of a hidden gem, I'm amazed that I have not discovered this place earlier. The food here is well priced, provided in big portions, delicious, and healthy. Service is fairly quick and the decor is themed appropriately for the restaurant. The food here is definitely the star, especially for the price point -- very similar to the value that you get at Pita Inn or Pita Pita but with offerings that I feel are a little bit healthier overall. The pork kabobs are seasoned nicely and tender with just about the right amount of fat on the meat. Steak kabobs were well seasoned and tender, with a texture that reminds me a bit of filet mignon. The lula kabob was super tender and spiced nicely, one of the best versions I've had in the area. The extras here really surprised me, in being prepared very deliciously and not just an afterthought. The armenian rice pilaf was surprisingly tasty, like a risotto in terms of flavor with nice and fluffy rice. The baba ghanouj had a really nice smoky flavor and matched perfectly with all my meat options with its intensely savory flavor. The hummus was quite good as well, with a good earthiness and nice creaminess to it. The cabbage salad was very nice and fresh, with the right amount of crunchiness to it. The jerusalem salad as a standout salad for me, with extremely fresh tomato, cucumber, and parsley that provided a great contrast to the meaty options in the rest of my meal. The potatoes were also prepared well, providing a nice hearty and starchy option to go with my meal. I also found the lavash to have a good chewiness while being perfectly thin and delicious. Overall, from entries to sides -- Armo Grill impressed throughout. Every item I tried was healthy yet delicious, full of fresh ingredients and something that I could eat everyday. read more

Food was amazing! The staff were helpful! Don't skip the dessert, they are homemade! Will be surely back.

Went here for dinner and got the: -Combo Platter -Kids Lulu -Chicken Platter The food was delicious and filling, the hummus was great and the Jerusalem salad was fresh and delish. I also got two falafels which I enjoyed greatly!! Highly recommend this place. I wasn't a big fan of the tahini and I would have appreciated if they included more than one piece of pita in each meal though... definitely will be coming back! read more

Armo Grill - Combo Plate - Armenian Near Me - Wheeling, Illinois

This is a fast casual restaurant where you order first and they bring to your table. This was our first time and the staff handling our order was very friendly and incredibly helpful with our order. She explained the process and offered suggestions if we didn't eat certain foods. We arrived about 40 minutes before close on a Sunday night. The place was empty. My wife got the falafel plate with jasmine rice, a house salad, and hummus. I got the chicken kabobs with jasmine rice. I didn't like the salad options or the garnish options. She offered me an additional side. I chose the potatoes. I rounded it off with a fountain drink. My wife got water. Her falafel was more like smashed falafel instead of the normal round balls. They were thinner and really fried with virtually nothing inside. I was told that they were flavorless, much like the rice. We both had it and there just wasn't anything to say about it. Bland. That's a good word. She said the salad started out good, but quickly realized there wasn't much to it. We each got a piece of the flattest and flavorless pita. It's a good thing that the dishes came with the pita as we had no idea what you would dip in the hummus (also just meh). My dish was the chicken kabobs. Normally chicken kabobs come in cubes these were two small, juicy, breasts of chicken. They were seasoned okay. The potatoes on the other hand, were really good. Cooked well and very well seasoned. Overall, everything was okay, nothing really to write home about (except the potatoes). With so many similar options in the area, we will probably opt to go elsewhere. read more

We happened upon this place after doing mini golf in the area and noticed it along Milwaukee Avenue. We're always up for trying a new restaurant. At Armo Grill, it's fast casual style, where you order at the counter, pay, get a number, and food is brought out to you. The outline of most meals is that you get to choose your protein, type of rice, salad, and spread, as well as get a pita. The pitas here are thin and a bit dry. As leftovers, they don't hold up too well. I was in a steak-mushroom pilaf-house salad-baba ghanouj mood, and it was a ton of food for about $17. Definitely 2+ servings. The rice pilaf was more flavorful than the mushroom pilaf, and the baba was a bit too smoky for my liking. The kids' meal bowls come with a protein (chicken or ground beef), rice, and pita. The young gentleman manning the register diligently checked on all tables throughout our stay. Casual seating environment, with a few tables outside too. Big parking lot. What else? Beer by the bottle is available, and there's a dessert case with baklava and cake slices too. read more

Fantastic kebab spot. Great portions, high-quality meat, and never overly salty. I've ordered here over 20 times and it's been consistently excellent. Unlike many kebab places, they don't skimp on the meat, and the cuts are always lean with very little fat. Great value and one of the few places that feels both filling, healthy and flavorful read more

Chicken shawarma is the best, very affordable and healthy options, generous portions. Love it! read more

My husband and I met a friend at Armo Grill. This restaurant is hard to find. It is set back far from the road and poorly lit. I'm glad that we took the effort to find Armo Grill. I got the pork kabob plate. It came with a generous amount of pork, American rice pilaf, cabbage salad, and hummus. The pork was juicy and well-seasoned. The food was amazing. It was very flavorful and fresh. I enjoyed the dinner so much that I went back to the counter to get dessert. I got the chocolate honey cake. It was sweet and satisfied my sweet tooth. I will definitely be coming back for more! I highly recommend Armo Grill! read more

What a great experience! From the personable staff to the delicious food, everything about my first visit was top notch. The chicken kabob was perfectly seasoned, and I really liked the potatoes, too. The Jerusalem salad was fresh. I was with two other people, and we each ordered a different appetizer so we could try all three on the menu. Our favorites were the hummus and tabbouleh salad, but the baba ganoush was also great. We were stuffed from the generous portions, but couldn't resist buying a few desserts from the bakery case to bring home. We tried the honey cake, Napoleon and baklava. All three were delicious, but the baklava was my personal favorite. I can't wait to return to try more of the menu. They also offer a weekday lunch special for just $10, which will be a priority soon! read more

So this has been in my raider I saw yesterday they weren't opened and then as I drove by today I saw they were opened. I was so excited so I decided not to cook and it came here and I thought I would get a couple appetizers and a side and then go home and cook, but since it's a new business, I thought I would sit down and eat and hopefully if the food is good, it would encourage other diners to come in. Surprisingly they had a decent amount of traffic. I ordered hummus, baba ghanoush and a mushroom bulgar and the food was excellent brand new clean facility. I'm going to have to come back and order their shish kebabs so excited coming check it out. I think you guys will like it. I really enjoyed it. I think you will too. It looks like they had salads And really tasty spreads they had a dessert area I should've taken a photo but I forgot I was kind of anxious to eat there but I'll have to go back and do some more photography for some reason the photos I took aren't showing up I try to be a good girl and limit my time online and I had to re-open my phone to post this review and come and try it . It was the first day opened so everything tasted excellent very fresh nicely seasoned the baba ghanoush and the hummus are outstanding and I'm sure when I eat that tomorrow it'll just get better . read more

We stopped by on Friday evening for a dinner. The place is very clean, food is very tasty: we had lamb kebab and steak kebab. Juicy, good portion. Sides are included to the price: few options are available: buckwheat, fried potatoes, bulgur. Small container of hummus is also part of the deal. The place is kind of new, well maintained, clean shiny metal silverware. Good choice of non-alcoholic drinks read more

Really good food! I can't believe this place isn't packed. We ordered carry out, and the food was still hot and fresh when we got home. I particularly enjoyed the Lula. Tender, flavorful ground meat. The pork was also outstanding, just the right amount of fat, because as we all know, that flavor is in fat! The service was friendly, the restaurant is nicely decorated, and next time we will consider dining in. They're definitely will be a next time, because the food is really good! I highly recommend! read more

Our go to for when we don't want to cook. Fast service, food is always fresh. Kind staff.

Relatively new and it's refreshing to be able to choose your sides as opposed to the obligatory rice and salad of other nearby places. I'm impartial to their buckwheat and Jerusalem salad. All the meats we tried were excellent, juicy and nicely flavored. This is a nice spot for lunch or a quick dinner. read more

While visiting family from Los Angeles I was told about this place that just opened up. We came for lunch and had their lunch specials, which were very reasonably priced. My mom had Armenian rice with lamb kebab and Jerusalem salad and hummus, and I had mixture of lamb and steak kebab with potatoes, garden salad and baba ghanoush. Both dashes were served with peta bread and we also were offered garlic white sauce and red spicy sauce to try with our meats. Everything was delicious, fresh and well prepared. Armenian coffee was delightful and customer service was superb. Very happy to see Armenian business doing well, will definitely return. read more

has anyone writing these reviews ever eaten Turkish, Lebanese or Armenian food? we hoped that this place would have edible food, since reviews I read were good. unfortunately, our Lula kabobs were Full of pieces of bone and gristle. inedible. Flavor was strange. taboule was tasteless. We used to go to a wonderful Armenian restaurant in Chicago that is no longer open- Sayat Nova. While I don't expect this restaurant to be in This category I do expect a restaurant to serve edible foo other than rice. Unacceptable for us. read more

It was just okay. I got excited after seeing all the reviews. The mushroom rice thing was just bland and seemed to be made half heartedly. The meats were okay. Chicken was kinda dry and lacked any real flavor. Beef was decent but you only got two tiny pieces. The ground stuff was pretty good. The hot sauce was weak as hell. Overall didn't think it was worth the price. Might return for the lunch special. read more
