    We stumbled upon Krasa when it immediately popped up as a burger place in the area. I had never even heard of it before! You walk in and place your order with the cashier. They had multiple burger options and other wraps, sides. I opted for the cheeseburger which I felt was very fairly priced at around $9. We also ordered the cheese fries and parmesan truffle fries. Water cups are available as well. The sit down spot is really cute and there's also an outdoor patio area. For the food, I thought it was a good burger but not one that was making me jump for joy. The fries were nice and crispy but I felt there was a touch of an aftertaste. It was overall a good experience with a good priced cheeseburger. The casual atmosphere and ambiance really stood out the most with Krasa for me.

    Chicken Shawarma absolutely incredible
    Tyler S.

    I went to the brand new location in Des Plaines on Lee St. It was possibly the best shawarma I ever ate. It was also a great portion. The sauce was fabulous def get extra. Also got a burger, it was nothing insane, won't go back for that but will def be a regular for the wrap.

    If you're looking for a creative twist on shawarma, you have to try the Chicken Chicago Shawarma at KRASA Craft Restaurant. The chicken is perfectly cooked and the Ukrainian-style garlic mayo sauce is amazing. I love how the honey mustard and cheddar cheese add a sweet and savory touch, while the pickles and cabbage keep everything fresh and crunchy. Highly recommend!

    Really easy service order at the counter and get a buzzer then pick up the order. Friend ordered Hawaiian burger and it was really good! I ordered the Hawaiian chicken shawarma wrap and it was good. My fav was the cheese fries

    This is a neat little restaurant. The front of it is covered in artifical green foliage. You cant miss it. There is metered street parking out front and within a reasonable walking distance. The woman that took my order was friendly and helpful. They have a small inside dining area and a decent sized patio area. part of the patio can be enclosed and has a fireplace for the cooler days. The other section of the patio is open air. The patio is adorned by a bunch of different green plants that run down the walls. As an added bonus, they have a complimentary water station The restaurant has music playing throughout the patio and dining area and is dimly lit. They serve some unique and exotic burgers including : the Flame Burger, the Blue Burger, the Hawaiian Burger, and the Belly Buster. They also have shawarma (spicy, Chicago, Teriyaki, and UA Classic). And if you looking for an adult beverage, they serve beer and wine here. I ordered the Sweet Burger, which came with fries. It only took a little over 5 minutes for me to get my food. It was fresh and may not have been the best that I have had, but it still was good. I would eat here again, if I ever find myself back in Chi-town. It is a chill/low key restaurant, with decent food.

    Mushroom burger with fries
    Clarissa C.

    I never knew a burger could taste this scrumptious!!! This place really popped off with both the vibes and the food. You walk in and pay at an unassuming counter. When you walk further in, you're presented with the coolest vine/plant/wood themed decor with a koi fish pond in the middle. In the back, there is a surrounded outdoor dining space. I got the mushroom burger (which comes with teriyaki sauce, mushrooms, a medium patty, goat cheese and arugula), and my friend got the teriyaki shawarma. The burger was so juicy, and the cheese and arugula paired/cut through perfectly with the saltiness of the patty! The fries were just okay, pretty standard - though the garlic sauce it came with was delicious!

    Super delicious and unique. I got the teriyaki wrap which was delicious as well as the cheese fries. The person who took my order was very friendly. They have a great outdoor patio area and a great overall vibe.

    #2 Spicy Shawarma and Mushroom Burger with #Truffle Fries

    This is the second time I came here and I would say the wrap is delicious. The chicken is well seasoned and the wrap is so thin where you don't get stuff with carb. I got the spicy chicken shawarma and my boyfriend got the mushroom burger. Street parking. There is indoor seating. The employee is very friendly, the first time I order my food to go they even write a note on the bag and pack two gum for us.

    Loved this burger. The beef was well-seasoned and juicy, and the bun was soft but not too heavy. The sauce gave it a nice tangy touch, and the cheese was perfectly melted. The portion was generous, and every bite was satisfying. Would definitely come back for another.

    Bud Light And Veggie Burger

    Have you ever eaten on a lawn? If not, you can at this restaurant. Lawn has a grass theme. Better to go when it's warmer, then you'll want to be seated outside at the grassy tables and have a burger. There's meaty burgers as well as plant based, along with Philly steaks. A pretty unique kind of restaurant and it kind of reminds me of having a picnic in the park because of the grass. It was a warmer day so we thought to come here. This place specializes in burgers, and they have all kinds. Burgers need to come with a drink. The beer selection is okay. It's pretty basic. The burgers are the main thing. Each of us got the Veggie Burger. It's about $13 for a big one. This came with arugula and sesame teriyaki sauce. Good and filling. The buns are kind of big, which ends up making it feel like you're eating a lot. Cool place to get some beers and burgers. It's not cheap for sure but you'll get good quality in return. There's a ton of burgers to choose from and it even has one for vegans and vegetarians.

    I LOVED my meal here! Ēma (Ay-mah) brings some glamour and glitz to the Mediterranean dining scene,…read morewith an airy, elevated hotel-lobby feel that still doesn't demand a dress code. Dresscode: Smart Casual / Casual Noise Level: Medium (it gets buzzy after 5:30pm) Thursday night Happy Hour was lively, so it took about 10-15 minutes for someone to come around, but service was attentive once we got going. The food is where Ēma really shines. From the Happy Hour menu, the Charred Eggplant Hummus and Crispy Potatoes were generously portioned and great for sharing. On the main menu, the Indian-Mediterranean fusion Bhel Hummus was a party for my taste buds, while the Hot Honey Halloumi and Chicken Kefta rounded out the table nicely. The halloumi is more of a side than a main, but that sweet-and-salty hot honey combo was chef's kiss. For our finisher, the Chocolate Torte knocked us out. Decadent, delicious and chocolate with lots of depth. Overall, Ēma is an excellent spot to order a bunch of dishes for the table and get an elevated meal without feeling stuffy, and delicious without taking itself too seriously. DO's: - Make a reservation ahead, especially for happy hour 4-6pm - Treat apps like small plates, order 2-3 to sample - Entertain their wine list, they have a lot! - Bring vegetarians here, there are plenty of options DON'Ts: - Dismiss the desert menu. It's fantastic and shareable! - Forget to ask for extra pita with the hummus! - Miss out on the LettuceEats loyalty points (check-in with your server before paying your check)

    Ema has a great atmosphere and a lot of really good bites. I have celiac disease and appreciated…read morethat most of the menu is gluten free (they have a dedicated GF fryer and knowledgeable staff). The lamb and beef kefta was tasty but very dry. The tune and watermelon salad and hummus were awesome. We were disappointed with the level of service. We were seated 30 minutes after our reservation time and waited even longer to be greeted by a waitress. Our wine took a while to come out and we had to request our check twice.
