    Magnificent Where do I start?! This place outdid itself. From the decor to the falafel it was 10/10. Middle eastern cuisine at its finest. The interior has a beautiful middle eastern theme with decor painted on the walls and art detailed on the table itself. Very clean atmosphere and well done. Bathrooms are accessible and clean. The hostess and waitresses are very friendly and made us feel welcomed. The food is made right in front of you and everything is made fresh. You get a large quantity for the price you're paying. Very fair prices. Outside has a lot parking and is handicap accessible. They have high chairs for kids. They have a wide variety of food on their menu.

    Well now that I work in Tinley Park and I found a shortcut coming back home from the north side in Harlem Ave passing through Bridgeview and Burbank which is predominantly Middle Eastern restaurants I decided to give this place a try. What stood out in the restaurant is that they had sheet liver sandwiches. It was actually very delicious I didn't want to eat any heavy meals that it is very expensive for most of their dishes you're spending over 14 bucks which I was on a budget but if you just want a sandwich and some salad to stand the healthy side of eating then this is good. I have the Arabic salad . Navigate me more radish and olives and other vegetables since I was leaning towards a healthy eating versus eating rice and french fries which I had no craving for. Too many carbs. I already can't wait for Thanksgiving and I'm trying to lose it by eating more vegetables. Service was pretty good the female server explained to me certain dishes. It certainly no typical Pita inn franchise up north. At least I know where to get sheep liver sandwiches. Ambience the typical casual middle eastern restaurant with a lot of Middle Eastern music I don't know what specifically if it's Palestinian or Iranian or Iraq or Arabic? The reason why three stars is because they didn't give water which I think most restaurants should do I noticed a lot of the Balkan and Middle Eastern restaurants have a tendency not to give water to drink even if it's casual atmosphere.

    This is a really good place for some heart warming authentic middle eastern food...The fatte is to die for! I finally found a place that does authentic toum (garlic) sauce! A lovely family restaurant with a young modern Arab twist on a classic "you had to be there" type of ambiance...#iykyk! You must try it!

    We went to Ghawar with a larger group than planned for breakfast. Service was very friendly and they were accommodating. The interior is spacious enough and has a fun design, but it was cold. We ordered shakshouka, foul, hummus with chicken, and sheep liver. Needless to say, I did not try the sheep liver. The shakshouka was okay, while the foul and hummus were very good. The bill was pricey, but we did order a lot and I didn't get an itemized receipt to properly gauge price.

    It was my first time in Chicago and I got the chance to go try this amazing restaurant. The food was absolutely amazing and I fall in love with every details inside the restaurant from the wall decor and the tables Arabic notes to the olive tree around the tables . Definitely recommend it

    Everything we ordered was so good, and the service really made the experience even better. Our…read moreserver, Mones, checked on us often and gave great recommendations on what to try. We started with the veggie appetizer, and the house-made pita was honestly the best pita I've ever had -- warm, fresh, and perfect with all the dips (which were all delicious). For our entrée, we shared the mixed grill plate. We did ask for the filet mignon to be well done but slightly pink, and even though it wasn't exactly that, everything still tasted really good and flavorful. To drink, we had the lemon and mint, which was super refreshing. For dessert, we tried the kunafa (hope I'm spelling that right!), and Mones walked us through it and explained everything, which made it even more enjoyable. Great food, amazing service, and we'll definitely be coming back.

The parking is pretty hard they do have a private parking but the Restaurant gets too crowded.the ambiance was very family oriented as a matter of fact there was a family with a persistent crying baby I got a huge headache. I did turn to give a look but finally after a 30min long listening to the cry. My son loved the brisket. I don't get it why he did not order authentic Palestinian food. I did enjoy the coffee it helped me with the headache
