    Falafel Plate
    Mary Z.

    Milano kabob is so good! This is probably the crispiest falafel I've ever had. I've found that often falafel gets a bit soggy when you do takeout but this was surprisingly still very crunchy when I got home. It came with beans and a side sized version of cold salad with vegetables. The vegetables in the entree and the side salad felt a bit redundant as they were more or less the same veggies, but tasty nonetheless. Every ingredient seems so fresh and the portion sizes are big. Only complaint is they don't give you enough sauce for the size of the entree!

    Milano Kabob is my newest obsession! All of the food is so fresh and delicious. You're able to get an incredible meal without needing to feel like you have to roll back to your car. The restaurant is tiny but they do have a get seats inside and 3 tables outside. It's no frills where the highlight is the incredible food. We tried it all and my favorites were: * Hummus * Mint Lemonade * Chicken Kabobs * Dubai Strawberries

    Fresh, friendly, flavorful. Simple words, but also heavy, especially when it comes to a restaurant. Milano is a bit off the beaten path in the Loop; a literal hidden gem. The workers were mad friendly. Even the cook came out and chatted with me. Food was cooked to order. The fired it up, and boom, smoking hot as it entered my mouth. The flavors were wonderful. The tikka chicken was superb. The pita was one of the best I have had! Light, fluffy, slightly doughy. Their sauce... like a mix between tziki and ranch... chef's kiss. Bursting with dill and garlic. Absolutely superb! Milano is a great spot for an easy takeout that is light on the stomach and will leave you craving more! Oh, the prices are cheap too

    Falafels

    Today my boss and I went here to pick lunch for the first time. She got chicken tikka sandwich and liked it. I got falafel. I was definitely surprised about their shape. I asked to replace the mango sauce for garlic sauce and was charged $1 for it. The falafels are tasty and garlic sauce too, but because I got this to go and drove for 20 mins the garnish looks very unappetizing.

    Lamb kebab plate with rice

    Just meh...someone told me about this off the main street place. Raved about their Dubai cannoli and food so I had to try it. I had the cannoli over the weekend. It looked delicious but was just ok. The filling was thick and not sweet enough. I went back today for food. I called my order in. When I arrived I was greeted as I walked in. It's a small clean place. My order was also waiting on the counter. I ordered the lamb kebab plate with rice, pita, and garlic sauce. The food smelled yummy on my drive home. Once I made it home I plated my dinner. I tasted the garlic sauce. It tasted like mayo. The pita was a pita I've never had. Very thin and a little sweet. Overall the food lacked flavor. I sprinkled Greek seasoning on everything and mixed in the garlic sauce. The two made the food palatable. For the meat to appear to marinate in seasonings in the case...flavorless and tough.

    Wonderful greeting by the young man. He was helpful amassed all my questions and made great recommendations. The desserts case could have used some cleaning. I left for a moment to go get a boba and come back to pick up my food the young lady was not nearly as friendly. Did not offer me napkins or cutlery for my to go. The young man yelled thank you from the kitchen. My food was hot and fresh with a healthy portion. But I wish there was more garlic sauce and fur more taste a little creamer. Also the falafel was cooked too perfectio. But needed a bit more salt or some type of dipping sauce to accompany it. Lots of potential but you guys know if you read my reviews good customer service will go a long way and that young woman's lack of it really took this review from a 4 to a 3. If I smile and say thank you, and you look at me dead pan like "whatever" its an easy way for me to keep my money in my pocket in the future.

    Seats, the number thereof, may sometimes tell the whole story. Two. Outside. Underneath a just-long-enough awning to cover us from the spunky pitter patter of the outside rain. Inside nearly entire restaurant was the kitchen, filled neatly with a kind of organized chaos that you'd only find in a lovely Persian woman's home. It smelled of garlic and herbs, freshly baked goods and warm doughy meats. A small corner sofa in the chair. It did not belong yet said so much more than any other furniture could have said. We sat outside 'neath the awning, looking onto the dusky silted night. The warmth at the center of our table smelled of a home.

    The food was amazing! The platter was delicious, chicken, steak and lamb. The service was so friendly and it's in a very nice quaint space. The Dubai chocolate cup was the best!

    The kofta kabob, fries and falafel side. Phenomenal all around.
    Brooke R.

    This tiny little place is amazing. We had a lamb kofta kebab sandwich and the chicken tikka kebab. Both were absolutely incredible. They each came with delicious fries. We also had a side of falafel. My son also got the lemonade and loved it. We will definitely be back even though we live in the city and it's a hike. Just delicious, with friendly service.

    We tried Milano Kabob for the first time tonight. We walked in to do a takeout order and the staff were very helpful and friendly. There isn't much space to sit inside so this is more of a takeout situation currently. Our food took about 15 minutes and we watched them make everything fresh. We ordered the Chicken Tikka Plate with the Iraqi Salad, the Falafel Sandwich with fries, the Baba Ganoush, a green dream smoothie and a piece of baklava. Everything was really tasty and made to order. I especially enjoyed the Baba Ganoush. There were lots of delicious looking desserts and I can't wait to come back and try more!

    Mixed Appetizer Plate

    Got the mixed app plate. Hummus is solid. Jajeek is like Tzaziki, with lots of cucumber. Baba Ganoush has pomegranate seeds, and is the star of the dips. Kubba are the little spring roll things, fried with ground meat. Sambosa are the hush puppy looking ones with the same meat. Falafel is the best I have had. Just the right consistency and moisture. Can be dipped in everything. Bread is Samoon. Really good thick flatbread. I'll definitely be back.

    Tikka Lamb Kabob Plate

    Small shop with seats inside for to go orders and 1 table outside to dine. Wonderfully displayed desserts and kabobs. My food was fresh and delicious. I have been twice in one month. The salad and beans that accompany this meal aren't pictured. Highly recommend this place!

We ordered The Original Palestine and Summer in Dubai. Usually, shawarma meat is sliced thin and practically melts in your mouth, but here it was on the dry side and cut into pretty thick pieces. The flavor was just okay, but honestly, neither of us was impressed. The portions also felt way too small for the price. We ordered just two shawarmas and paid around $40 total, so we definitely expected more. You can only sit inside. There are no outdoor tables like you can see in some of the other reviews. The atmosphere itself felt more like a typical fast-food spot than a place where you'd want to sit and enjoy your meal. One thing that really surprised me was the soda situation. I grabbed a cup to get myself a drink, and an employee had to turn a key to activate the drink machine while I was standing there. It honestly felt like there was some kind of limit on how many drinks I was allowed to get, which was pretty strange. Parking is also difficult. There's no parking along the main street, so we had to park farther away and walk. Overall, based on our experience, I wouldn't recommend this place. There are plenty of other spots where we've had much better shawarma for the price.

    What a find this was!…read more See pictures for the interior feel of the place. That's the only down side. Small place, feels more like a place to order take out. Not really conducive to eat in, it's not a totally comfortable vibe. But we did! As well as a few other people that came at the same time. The service was great! Server guy, I'm not sure what to call him, was extremely attentive, personable and did pretty much all the running around while we were there. He handled all the tables, handled the people picking up food for take out, and did it all smoothly. The food really was amazing. Again, see the pictures I posted. We over ordered, on purpose, to try a little of a lot of things. The corn soup was different, but good. Seems to be a mix of a few cans of cream corn, broth, and a few chicken bits (if you ordered chicken). We found it pleasant. The fried spinach was amazing. The yellow curry was amazing. The Mongolian beef was amazing. Thank you for the rice, there was quite a bit of it and the fried shrimp (I forget the official name...fried shrimp?) off the appetizer menu) was AMAZING. We will definitely go back. Even if it's just take out. I must say....we took the left overs home and they made the trip just fine and were still good as left overs. Highly recommend. Let me know what you think, leave a compliment give me a "helpful" so I know you liked it!

Apparently, they are the only Halal Chinese restaurant in STL! We started off with pumpkin sambosas: deep fried triangles filled with beef and pumpkin, dusted with powdered sugar. A good mixture of savory and sweet. Then we had to try their yellow hand-pulled noodles and they did not disappoint! I loved the bouncy texture of the noodles. The thick sauce had notes of spice and was slightly unbalanced but still yummy. It was perfect to sop up with their soft fluffy naan. Lastly, we got the sautéed mala chicken which was a massive portion for $26 - by itself, it could probably feed 3-4 people! It was truly mala (spicy and numbing) with generous Sichuan peppercorns. The chicken was flavorful, though slightly tough. This dish would've gone well with the yogurt drink. Overall, this was a great dinner for 2 people with leftovers. I'd like to try one of their lamb dishes next time. You should definitely give them a try!
