    We came here for carryout after a funeral for a (Jewish) friend. They have a very convenient way to order online and pick up. We were a long way out, and we ordered while driving an hour to the location. The location is inside a building called WiFi. There is a parking lot on both sides, and it is a very long building with several addresses and other (Jewish) businesses, as well as restrooms, but I did not use them. Across the street is a park and jogging/bike path. Very gorgeous area but not pedestrian-friendly. We got the Crunch Salad for $19 (!) and cinnamon rugelach. (It was listed as such but it may have been a cinnamon twist. It resembled a croissant with cinnamon rather than the square/oval shape rugelach that I'm used to. And it was moist and delicious) For the price the salad was very big, but rather hard to eat! I did not eat any til later, as we gorged on food before the funeral. The Crunch Salad has crispy or grilled chicken, pastrami bits, romaine lettuce and croutons. The dressing was similar to 1000 island, very good, but the crispy chicken was like pebbles! Very tough, and the pastrami was chewy, but otherwise pretty good. It may be better to go with grilled instead of crispy chicken. The place is small with efficient service. Our order was there when we arrived, in a paper bag and cardboard container. The other food looked good on display. There was a small eating area on a Thursday afternoon, but we opted to eat outside.

    Blooming onion shared at a table of 9--with leftovers.

    This was my first time eating at a big city kosher restaurant and I showed up with a group of my non-Jewish work colleagues, all of us there for a business trip. None of us knew what to expect and we loved all of it--the nice lady who took our orders, the delicious and generously-sized appetizers, the fusion of style and flavors. Kosher food is typically more expensive but these prices seemed pretty average for Chicago and the amount served was a lot; most of us took boxes back to the hotel and I finished leftovers at the airport. Several remarked it was the best food they had during their stay (and I'm with them). Would happily eat there again.

    Great food, semi affordable price, and very consistent. Definitely and easy kosher option that you cannot go wrong with.

    I was able to smell the chicken a block away, so I had to try them…read more This place is a cute little hole in the wall. I ordered the 4 piece dark with mild sauce and a small rib tip. I also ordered a side of cole slaw and red beans and rice. The guy behind the counter said they don't have mild sauce for the chicken. Then he told me the sauces that they had, so I said no sauce. I guess he was also relating the sauces for the rib tips when I already said no sauce. They cook the chicken fresh and may take a little time. When I got home, I was ready to dig in but I found out the sauce discussion left my rib tips with no bbq sauce. I called them and a nice lady told me I would be taken care of the next time, I visit. Thank goodness, I had bbq sauce. But I tried the tips without sauce and they were seasoned well. I put on some Sweet Baby Rays on them and dang it was good. The tips were tender and a lot of meat. The chicken was so good that I wish I would have gotten more. It was seasoned and crunchy. The Cole slaw was okay and the red beans and rice was good, just which it had a little more pot liquor. I would definitely go back. Also the prices that they have online is really outdated.

    Went on a whim based on a coworkers suggestion and was not disappointed one bit. Found my new…read morefavorite chicken place in Evanston. The food is incredibly fresh and crispy! Service and the staff is super friendly. Got a two drumstick and two breast and it was only $12. Very filling and hit the spot! I don't want to sound sacrilegious but I think fans of Harold's in Chicago would really like this place ! Very limited seating there but would recommend you eat fresh there if you can. Very no frills and casual atmosphere.
