    Steak Shawarma Wrap
    Isra A.

    i've only been to the Bridgeview location. The place is bright yellow which gives it a nice family friendly feel. The service is fast and friendly, it's pretty casual. I got mine to go, the menu can be overwhelming but the wraps are really popular. I was apprehensive about the price for just the wrap being $12.99 but as you can see, the quantity is huge and it's well worth it. As for the shawarma, the wrap itself was kind of dry which means they didn't use a lot of oil (if any) to toast it. Which is fine but unfortunately i found the inside to be dry too. There is plenty of meat and veggies in the wrap, but the tahini based sauce gives it a dry feel that ends up muting out the big flavors. It is good and definitely leans more on the healthy side, but I haven't craved it since then. Overall not a bad option if you're really hungry and just want a solid wrap!

    With so many shawarma spots in the area, it's hard to pick the best, they truly are pretty good, but I will say that Hello Shawarma has the advantage because of the beshka sandwich. It's like the Arab version of a Philly sandwich. I'm not Jordanian/Palestinian so this sandwich is a totally new concept for me and we are in love with it. I also love their pickle station. Those peppers and the cauliflowers are my favorite pickles and to have access to all that is a dream. Sometimes I just stop by for the pickles. Then of course, the bowls are delicious as well. Seating is always ample and service is always great. Overall, it's a must stop on your shawarma journey.

    Noticed this Restaurant when I pulled in to the Walmart Shopping Center. West side of Harlem Avenue. Very catchy sign. Nice logo and well designed restaurant. Nice seating area outside. Both Thai & Shawarma Share a dinning hall, so it's very busy. It's congested to get in, as the order counter is in the back of the store. If I could make very helpful suggestion, they need to somehow have an "order only" counter and "pick up" separate. Not the best design on that part. Love the open concept to watch the Chefs prep the food. Very clean place. They seemed to be enjoying their lives in the kitchen and I love to see that. The wait was pretty long, many customers. I did order the pickle bar take away , $2.99 , definitely must try. Mansaf bowl with lamb. I'm not sure if it's a Lebanese interpretation or another culture, It's not what I'm use to. It didn't have the bread soaked or any bread at all, at the bottom and the yogurt sauce was lacking flavor. I'm super picky about Mansaf , my Khalto made the best Palestinian Style/Jordanian Mansaf. For a take away Quick Serve restaurant, it does taste pretty good. Was a large meal for $25. Their packaging and take away bags are fantastic, they need additional credit for that in itself. Was a pleasant visit. Ty. Busy area. Must try Selma's Sweets across street when you are done; South. They are amazing also.

    Shawarma Wrap (Shrak Bread) Meal

    Interesting a delicious shawarma! I didn't really understand the concept until I looked around but you order what you want in a kiosk and your food is brought out to you, or handed to you if you're taking it to go. I ordered the Shawarma Saj, and tbh I should've ordered it in a stuffed pita because it comes with more pickles and such. To make up for it, I ordered a side of pickles where I can fully my own container and it was delicious! The sandwich was filling and full of flavor. The fries are also well seasoned and delicious. Friendly staff and clean. Really enjoyed coming here and will do so!

    First time trying this place and it was amazing. We had the lamb shawarma bites with fries and it was delicious!! Will definitely come back!!

    Definitely worth the short trip out of the city. That lamb shawarma is going to bring me back. And the pickles? As tasty as they are pretty!

    Shawarma In A Wrap ( only sandwich)
    Mohammad A.

    I only heard good things about this spot and had to try it. My shawarma cravings were tingling. Not only was the flavor of the beef and chicken rich - but it was so hearty and fulfilling and fluffy. Not to mention the vibe is pretty cool and fun and the owner is extremely generous and welcoming. He offered a free yogurt drink that they also sell. Please come try some of the best shawarma I've ever had!

    Chicken Shawarma Wrap

    Amazing shawarma! This is the best shawarma available in the area. Chicken is juicy, fries are seasoned (I don't know what seasoning they use but it's great, never tasted anything like it), and all the sauces take it to the next level. Service is great, I wish there was more seating. Try this place out!

    Beef bashka and chicken shawarma wrap
    Fuad A.

    Went there for the first time really good food the Bashka was the highlight we got the shawarma wrap and the mansaf the mansaf sauce was not something we are used to so it felt like a taste thing but the bashka was awesome and we will drive an hour to have this again

    This was my second time visiting this restaurant. Ever since my first visit, I cannot stop thinking…read moreabout the great food and knew I had to stop by when I was back in town. The place is very busy so parking can be a bit hard to find but they do have an overflow lot. Inside, they have a seating area where you can wait until you're seated at a table. Both times I've been there the wait time was around 20-30 minutes but trust me, the food is worth the wait. Even though they were busy, our server was attentive and the food didn't take too long to come out. I went with a group and for our appetizer we tried the platter that comes with hummus, baba ganoush, grape leaves, and fresh pita bread. For my drink, I had the lemon mint smoothie...very refreshing. The plates that my husband and I got were the chicken shawarma sandwich with a salad and the filet plate that comes with rice as well as grilled tomato and grilled onion. They give you generous portions which made it possible for me to share some of my meal with someone in my group to try and I still had leftovers. Finally, we could not leave without having dessert. We had knafeh which is made fresh. Everything was amazing and I can't wait to come back next time I visit the Chicagoland area.

    Listen to me, I've driven by this place so many times and wondered what's really good to eat here…read more Most of the time I was intimidated by the traffic here, and how cramped it can seem - but let me tell you, the food is WORTH IT, man! Just the bowl of lamb broth pre-meal is worth an hour of wait. I DREAM OF THAT BROTH, it was that good. I wanted to seek out the chef, and kiss his/her hands, but I don't have bail money, so I didn't. Their grilled fish was also to die for; booked through perfectly, and juicy, with a bunch of beautifully caramelized seasoning giving it a scrumptious yet delicate flavor. Baba Ghanoush can be had as a main, versus a side, the portion is aplenty, and the flavor is top notch; I prefer my ghanoush more chunky, but this is creamy and satisfying too! Overall, thoroughly satisfied, this is the kind of meal that will have you hating yourself for not getting here sooner! Go try it now..... it's not just about Yemeni Coffee, the food is amazing too!

I will give it another try after they have run the place for a few months and hopefully improved.

We came on a Saturday night around 7 pm and we were able to find parking immediately. To be clear, the parking area is kind of tight and cramped. If you can't find parking here, you can try seeing if parking is available in the neighborhood or next door. Inside Al Manakeesh, they have a plentiful amount of tables. You order at the front, receive a pager, and wait for your food. They have additional drinks in the back. They are known for making Middle Eastern flatbread pizzas and kaaks (bagel). Customer service was great. They were very efficient at making the food and drinks. Everyone was nice. No one was pushy when we ordered our items. Prices were good, they were inexpensive. We ordered egg/meat/cheese, pepperoni, mixed meat bagel, sfeha with tahaina, and zaatar/akkawi cheese/cherry tomato. Honestly, everything was a 5/5. I liked that the pizzas weren't floppy and none of the ingredients slid off. The portions were huge. I also got a peach matcha. After mixing it, the peach taste was very noticeable: -The pepperoni tastes cleaner and more flavorful than the American places. For some reason, the American ones are so greasy and oily. -For the egg/meat/cheese pizza, the egg taste really stands out. -Sfeha is halal ground beef and has more flavor than regular ground beef. The tahaina helps make it pop. -The zaatar/akkawi/cherry tomato is an awesome combination. When you take that first bite, you'll immediately taste all of the ingredients. It's that prominent. -The mixed meat kaak has halal turkey, halal roast beef, halal salami, mozzarella, Mexican cheese, and their signature sauce. They give you two cups of sauces. One I think is the signature sauce and the red one is a little spicy. The portion is big enough to share between 3-4 people.
