I ordered catering for a party. Pretty simple - chicken and beef kabobs. So yummy! All of our guests were raving about them. Portion size was huge. Seasoning and meat quality was spot on. Thank you for saving me from having to cook kabobs on the grill in 90+ degree weather. We can't wait to come in and try the restaurant!! read more

Living less than two miles away I have passed this place 100 times. Finally decided to give it a try since their new dining room was opened. Unfortunately when I went on a Friday afternoon the dining area was closed. Looked like they were filming and taking pictures. They were in the kitchen too. Anyway, I placed an order to go and less than 10 minutes later I was out the door. Ordered the BAM cheeseburger and small fries. A little pricey but then everything is. The mixture of beef and lamb is luxurious. Great blend and let's hear it for a good old fashioned char burger! The spices and sauce are subtle yet distinctive and unique. Wonderful flavors throughout. The fries are the larger/thick cut that I usually don't enjoy, but these were fried perfectly and had a great texture. Now I'm going to be nit picky on the build of the burger. And this is obviously personal preference. The burger patty is a generous size. However, the cheese was so melted and thin, I barely noticed. The onion was a raw white onion and also a generous cut. I would prefer a red onion or grill them. As it was, the onion kind of dominated the flavor. The tomato, pickles, and lettuce were all good, which added up to a tall build. Finally, a brioche bun. I know, the world loves a brioche bun. On a burger, I don't want the extra sweetness of brioche. Give me a good old potato bun or sesame seed bun instead. Nothing bad about any of the above. Great service, fast and friendly. I look forward to the dining room open and trying a gyro plate! I'll be back for sure. read more

Saw this place riding by, looked at the reviews quickly and stopped by. I ordered online to save 10%. It's a pick up and go spot however, open kitchen concept. It looked clean and well stocked. Was able to meet and speak with the Ed, the owner himself. Him and his staff were very pleasant. For extremely delicious and quality food..it was a quick and efficient process! We tasted it in the car and ordered a duplicate to let our adult children taste. It was that delicious. Ed and his staff thought we made a double order in error and came to speak with us. That was top tier customer service!!! The cost is a bit higher than I'd pay to not have a dine in experience however, it was worth every penny, nickel, dime, and dollar! Meat was perfect seasoned and cooked, rice was fluffy and seasoned and salad was very fresh!!! read more

First time to Ed's Kitchen. We pass by all the time but we noticed it had repairs being made. We stopped by its nice, clean, sitting area to eat. The waiter was there pleasant and courteous. I ordered the chicken shish-kabob and my husband ordered the pork shish-kabob with a bowl or rice. The food was very good. The chicken is tender, juicy, and tasty with little bits of char which provides more flavor. My husband liked his pork kebob. It was also tender with char which added to its flavor. The rice is just rice with a little vermicelli. Picked onions on the side of the kebob with a tomato purée that was very good with the meat. I would have liked some pita bread and a few slices of tomato to offset my kebob. It looked lonely! plus the meal was a little pricey. We paid about total of $45. No drinks and just the rice as an add on. That being said this was a good new place for Mediterranean food. We will come back and try something different, but the chicken kebob deserves a try! Bravo! read more

11/9/25 update: We decided to do a takeout for lunch. We got the kharcho medium size, chicken kebab plate, and lula kebab plate. Those plates are great for at least 2-3 meals. You get huge portions for your money. I loved the kharcho soup, it has lamb, rice garlic, and fresh greens. Next time, I'll have to order a large size. It's that good and it's not spicy. The chicken was very tender and succulent. The lula was savory and not overpowering. Don't sleep on that rice, the rice was one of the best things. I also got a free reusable bag. Very reasonable prices. read more

My husband & I love Ed's kitchen! Our favorite thing to get is the chicken kebab plate, chebureki, & kharcho soup! We are even thinking about catering from here in the future. The chicken is cooked perfectly every time. The rice is delicious as well as the chopped salad. You can tell how much the owner loves his restaurant, congrats on their renovation! read more

Just got Ed's again! Chicken Kabob Plate. It was timely delicious and professional. This business not only upheld the high standards that they opened with, they have somehow improved! This is a SOLID choice for delicious, well prepared, healthy food. The atmosphere is friendly, spotless clean (since day one) and nicely appointed for those waiting for great takeout. read more

Food was all excellent as well as the staff. We ordered what felt like a little of everything. Perhaps that is why we got a free Ed's reusable bag too...too much to fit in plastic grocery bags! I used the bag at the Farmer's Market and had a couple people ask my thoughts on Ed's so they got some free advertisements too . One of the items we ordered was the Ed's Special Bam Burger. Very delicious!! We'll be back! read more

Good food and service from Ed. Thanks! I should recommend the good eaters to try and taste the different dishes to see how you like it! read more

Waited over 20 min for a wrap. Ordered no spice and it was so spicy I couldn't eat it. Aside from the spice it was a sloppy mess that fell apart. Take a look at the photo. I wouldn't feed this to my dog. These reviews must have been purchased because I wouldn't wish this food on my worst enemy. read more

Ed's Kitchen - Chicken wrap - Mediterranean Near Me - Woodridge, Illinois

Was looking for a quick bite to grab with a friend of mine so decided to stop by Ed's Kitchen (which had fabulous reviews). It's a small Mediterranean joint with a few seats inside. The menu has a lot of options with wraps, plates, salads, drinks, and more!! The staff was very sweet and helped us decide what to get! We both ended up getting the chicken shawarma wrap! It was wrapped in a tortilla, instead of a pita. It was filled with juicy and tender chicken, fries, lettuce, pickles, garlic sauce, and a tomato sauce! The food was incredibly flavorful!! I also tried some of their falafel which was the best I've ever had!! Can't wait to go back and try the falafel wrap next time!! I've lived in the Naperville/Woodridge area for the last year and I never knew about this spot!! But now that I do, I'll be going back again for sure!! read more

Ed's Kitchen - Chicken Shawarma Wrap - Mediterranean Near Me - Woodridge, Illinois

This is the BEST mediterranean wraps I've ever had! I got the Chicken Shawarma Wrap, it's packed with flavor and the chicken is so tender and juicy. They've grilled the outside so the tortilla wrap is fresh and crispy. The combination of the pickle, fries, veggies, and sauce complement each other perfectly. The portions are pretty big as well, very filling! Definitely a new favorite I'll be coming back to in the future! Food: 10/10 read more

Stopped in because we wanted something for lunch that wasn't just a chain restaurant, and we saw the signs at the road. Everything was super fresh and delicious (gyros, cheese pie, fries). We were surprised when they asked for a spice level on the gyros, and selected "1". It was plenty spicy, and tasty!!! There's only a tiny counter to eat at, but it was fine for us and not crowded today. I will definitely make a point to return the next time I'm in the area! read more

Omg absolutely disgusting from the hummus not ne being fresh to the burger tasting like cardboard. Would highly not recommend this spot. The prices too. Very disappointing read more

The best kebab around !!! Food always fresh, warm, loaded plates look amazing All food, soups, entrees all very well made Love this place read more

Found this place by accident through Google search for restaurants. I had the chicken shawarma wrap and a falafel with tahini. Both really good. Will definitely go back next time I'm in the area. read more

Food was very good. I ordered shawarma sandwiches and beef kabab with rice. Service was excellent. The atmosphere was super clean great ambience definitely a great tasty experience. I recommend everybody try Ed's Kitchen read more

Rice bowl is my goto, extra chicken. This is place is the best value in DuPage county.. high quality good for a reasonable price

It's very small, kinda dirty and I wish I knew that before I placed an order. I got the chicken sharwma wrap which is as big as a burrito. Ha ha! It def had a unique taste to the chicken but nothing I would go back for and I wish it was more shredded! Pass, pick somewhere else! read more

The food was soooo good! You can't go wrong. The chicken had the best marinade. All of the sides were fresh and delicious.

The food here from what I have tasted once is good compared to the other similar places. In fairness, the food is good. The service however is where this place really needs to improve A LOT. YOU CANT ALWAYS HAVE PEOPLE WAIT for the food to be ready because peoples lives revolve around a schedule. It is not for everyone. The PLACE IS ONLY for regulars and those who have at the very least an hour to waste while waiting for the food. YOU WILL WAIT. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!! The place is clean and looks nice compared to other places. TO THE OWNER: Don't thank me or anything at all. PLEASE READ THE REVIEW and understand. read more

The gyro sandwich was delicious just wish the bread didn't fall apart! if they make bread better I will definitely eat here again

Nice and easy carry out experience. The men working were really nice and helpful. The pita isn't great though. Hummus and lamb wrap were mediocre. read more

Ed's Kitchen - Few seats in front of restaurant but mostly for carry out. - Mediterranean Near Me - Woodridge, Illinois

The food as always delicious! Even though I ordered through 3rd party delivery , the food was still warm and fresh.

Is this place still open? When I drove by there a few days ago the sign was down and the door was boarded. Possibly remodeling?

First time we tried the burgers here, and they were great, as everything else we've tried here has been (love their kebabs, shawarma, lentil soup, and hummus). Our food was ready when it was supposed to be, and the service people are friendly & prompt. Ed's definitely deserves 5 stars for this visit, which I've given, but overall, this was very sad and depressing. I used the Yelp app to place my order, which put it through Grub Hub. And while I was aware of the $2.35 service fee they were adding, I was not aware that they also inflated the prices of every menu item as well. I was charged $12.95 (each) for the two $10.95 burgers I ordered, and $4.45 for the $3.45 fries. That tacked on an additional FIVE DOLLARS over the $2.35 fee. FOR A PICKUP. I am so sick over this. Then I found out Ed has his own website where you can place orders at the original prices, no markups, no fees. Why doesn't Yelp link to that instead when you click on "Order Takeout or Delivery"? Ed could not offer me any sort of refund, and I can't hold that against him. I also called Grub Hub and they offered an apology as well as a $5 credit on a future order. Only problem with that is that $5 would basically cover additional markups and fees, so I'm really not getting any of the money I felt cheated out of back. :( But the food here is easily the BEST in Woodridge, if not Lisle Township, and I will be back often, just not via the Yelp app ever again. read more

Just ordered from Ed's tonight, brought it home and thoroughly enjoyed our meal. I got the chicken kabab and my hubby got the beef kabab. We also got the hummus and falafel. For $30 we were hoping our meal would be good and it was excellent. My chicken had crispy parts on the outside and was tender and flavorful. The beef was good but I really enjoyed the chicken. My husband did too. The rice and carrot salad was amazing! The falafel was crisp on the outside but tender on the inside. It had a slight sweet flavor which makes it the best falafel I've ever had. We'll definitely order from Ed's again. Thank you for a great dinner!! read more

The owner has to be buying reviews or giving free food if people rate it 5 stars. There's no way the place has so many 5 star reviews. Worst shawarma wraps my family has ever had. The wrap tastes more like a tortilla, its like biting into a wet diaper; bland sauces with meat and soggy lettuce, and it has french fries in it (why?) And the fries are soggy and old tasting. The food doesn't taste very fresh. Like the meat has been frozen, the rice tastes like instant rice,, and the salads taste like they've have been sitting around for a while. I really like mediterranean food and I've never had rice like that or tomato sauce. I'm not sure if it's a different style of med food but it's just not as good as your standars fresh med food with tahinis garlic sauces, etc. The quality of the ingredients (meat, rice, and pita especially) tastes very low regardless of a differemt style of cooking. I was blown away that this place has such a high rating. I've had their food a couple of times now and its been consistently poor. Definitely something fishy going on with the reviews here. Update: Nevermind, the owner griefs people on the google reviews who don't give great reviews. Says they're "european" style flavors. That's not true lol. Apparently there's a sign saying talk to owner before posting bad reviews, I didn't see it inside but another review mentioned it. That screams "I have bad food but will buy a good review from you". This is a place that would end up on kitchen nightmares. read more

The food here is great! We have ordered the plates and sandwiches. We particularly love the lamb and steak. We usually order delivery and it's always on time, hot and fresh. Each of the rice plates is like 2 meals for us. read more

I've never been to Lisle, but came for my cousin's wedding. When I flew in, I was hungry and had no idea about the restaurants. I chose Ed's based on the Yelp reviews. Grub-hub deliveredI and was not disappointed. The chicken & rice were seasoned wonderfully. Salad was crispy and fresh. Delicious! read more

Ed's Kitchen - The Chicken Kebab dinner - Mediterranean Near Me - Woodridge, Illinois

I ordered takeout from Ed's again last night, two chicken kebab meals for my dad and I and once again it was killer! I had put in an electronic order and their new system was still working out some kinks so it wasn't quite ready when I got there, but Ed was super nice, got it all fixed, gave us extra large portions and a free dessert just for waiting a bit. Food was fantastic and the service was really great. Next time I want to try their burgers, they look delicious! I meant to take a picture but it smelled so good I started eating before I could snap a pic! read more

Very happy to have found Ed's. Food is very fresh and delicious. Between my wife and I, we've tried the Chicken Shwarma, Luau Kebab and the Chicken Kebab. Everything is very fresh and delicious. Owner was very helpful, as my wife was dairy free for some time read more

I will be brief and to the point on this review because it is a small business. I ordered a chicken kebab and a lentil soup. The kebab comes as grilled marinated chicken thighs served with steamed rice and sauteed vermiceli chopped salad, spicy carrot salad, pita bread, marinated onions and tomato sauce. Ed will give you alot of food. The chicken and the chopped salad was decent. Two stars for both. read more

Let me preface this review with, I'm not really a Mediterranean food guy. It has different flavors and spices that our different from typical American cuisine. With that being said, this place was a game changer for me, the chicken was cooked perfectly, moist and well seasoned. The additional sides, the rice, the salad, etc. Had a slightly different flavor from what I experienced at other Mediterranean places. I liked it, I liked it enough to actually look forward to going back and trying one of their other meals!!! That's huge for me. read more

Good service, good food, good portions. If you enjoy Mediterranean home cooking, give Ed's a try. We really enjoyed their chicken shawarma, lamb plate, & salads were fresh and tasty. And we had an issue with our order so Ed threw in a piece of baklava and it was delicious! I'm for sure to include baklava in our next order. Well done Ed's! Good luck to you! :-) read more
