It's served with au jus & marinara. They were tasty, piping hot & had good heat flavor wise. Caesar salad was good. A lil heavy on the dressing for me.

The toppings were very generous & the cheese quality. It was more of a chain than I thought, initially. But that's not a problem, everything was good quality. I thought there was just one. Not the case. The folks working there were kind & attentive.

I had a pretty good experience here, the service was fast and friendly, and the restaurant ambiance itself was good - clean and not too loud inside. The deep dish pizza at Giordano's is also pretty good - can't go wrong with a 12 inch deep dish to have some leftovers to bring home! It is expensive here, but tasty. If you're in the area and want deep dish pizza, I'd recommend a visit. They have thin crust pizza also and other dishes, but those are not what they're known for.

No how are you, can I get you something to drink. No water. A woman came up to us to take our order. I asked if we could at least get some water. There were items that we tried to order that they were out of. We didn't realize that this was a Muslim restaurant so there wasn't any alcohol to be served. Our waitress was not helpful in describing what was on the menu. My colleague ordered Arancini. I tried one. First of all they were the size of maybe a golf ball size. And had some square pieces of I'm not sure what it was. But it wasn't rice as it should be. Our meals were beyond horrible. I had supposedly gnocchi. But it was in a bowl of.

I wanted to order a Diet Coke and even when it was apparent, we were not eating our meals. No one came to check on us for quite some time. I had to go up to the counter and ask if someone could at least give us our check. If I could give negative stars I would. I typically try to find the best in a restaurant.

We made a Valentine's Day reservation at Dua Prime Italian Dining a full month in advance. We drove…read moreover an hour expecting a special, well organized evening. Instead, it was one of the most chaotic and disappointing dining experiences we've had. Upon arrival, no one greeted us. When someone finally addressed the crowd forming at the entrance, the only thing said was, "Who came first?" There was no host presence, no organization, and no professionalism. After being seated, we waited 45 minutes without a single server acknowledging us. No water, no hello, nothing. Meanwhile, the restaurant continued packing guests in tightly. Customers were being asked to sit at dirty tables. Servers were telling tables it would be another 20 minutes just to take their order. My husband and I spoke with management directly. The response was indifferent and dismissive. There was no urgency and no accountability. When a server finally came to our table, he appeared annoyed and simply said, "Sorry." When I mentioned basic hospitality and said, "Hi, hello, good evening, sorry for the wait?" he responded that they "didn't think it would be this busy tonight." It was Valentine's Day. On a Saturday. Near O'Hare. Surrounded by hotels. With reservations booked weeks in advance. We ran into friends dining there who had the same experience. Unfortunately for them, their food had already arrived and it was undercooked, bloody meat. The guest next to us sent his steak back, and his partner did not eat at all. The frustration throughout the dining room was obvious. We ultimately walked out, and multiple other parties followed. We drove over an hour for this reservation, and by the time we left, many other halal options were already closed. Valentine's Day was completely ruined. This is not about being busy. It is about management, preparation, food safety, and basic hospitality. Extremely disappointing.

My favorite meats would have to be the filet minon or the sirloin. I love how you can choose how you want it cooked, so I always got to get medium rare. The potato salad and caesar salad were a good pallet cleanser as well. The service was awesome here! We went for a work Christmas party, and it was one of our birthdays as well. The waitress surprised us with a candle and chocolate cake. The ambiance was very clean and nice. Additionally, I love how there's free parking with validation. My only critique is that I wish they came out with the meats quicker, and I wasn't a fan of how salty the chicken and lamb pieces were. The beef pieces were spectacular though!

Ok that's fine. They knew I was celebrating my birthday I got no mention it from anyone even though it was on my reservation. Our waiter was ok I guess but then he disappeared and we had a new waiter. No mention of him needing to split or anything. The new one didn't bother telling us that he was taking over. Just strange. Not a fan of that situation. The good!!! Lamb chops were awesome even if they were a little heavy on the salt. The cucumber mojito like drink. The cheeses!! My son enjoyed the lentil soup with white rice. He really is a cheap date. Thankfully his meal was free because he's 5! I think they also raised prices. Now it's $65 per person. Not sure if it's worth it. Food was pretty good so probably is worth it if you're a big meat eater. My husband isn't so he had the salad bar and enjoyed that but not worth the money for him. They do validate parking so that's cool. I guess it was an ok experience but I doubt that we'll be back for the dinner menu.

The…read moreambiance of the restaurant was genuinely nice, but unfortunately that's where the positives end. The service was shockingly poor, and the food didn't come close to justifying the price. To put things into perspective, the restaurant only had about six tables occupied, so it wasn't busy at all. Despite that, it took 30 minutes just to place drink orders. After that, our server disappeared and never returned to take our appetizer or entrée order. We spent another 45 minutes trying to get her attention, at times clearly waving in her direction and even feeling like she was looking right at us, but she still didn't come over. She only came back after a long wait, and not because she was checking on us. When the food eventually arrived, it was underwhelming at best. I ordered the fettuccine Alfredo with chicken, which was bland and came with only a few small shreds of chicken mixed in, definitely not what you would expect from a nicer Italian restaurant. We also did not receive bread until we specifically asked, drinks were never refilled, and our server never once checked on us. After finishing our meals, we sat with empty plates and glasses for about 30 minutes before a busser, not our server, finally cleared the table. We then waited another 15 to 20 minutes before flagging down someone else to order dessert. That person only took one order and walked away without addressing the rest of the table. Eventually, flagged down another staff member who took our full dessert order, but after waiting another 30 minutes with nothing arriving, we decided to leave. The overall attitude from the staff was indifferent at best, and it genuinely felt like no one cared about the customer experience. Even when we spoke to the manager, there was little sense of concern or urgency. It was a very strange interaction. The only redeeming part of the evening was that, after significant pushback, a portion of our bill was discounted. Still, the entire experience lasting nearly three hours was incredibly frustrating and disappointing. I would not return or recommend this place.

But points of caution that they are fried and have an almost sweet and sour sauce on top which for me was a little heavy. Overall quick and efficient service for a sit down lunch during the work week.

The atmosphere felt relaxed and inviting, but I have to mention it was 8pm when we went. Now for the food it was absolutely delicious. The chicken kabob was incredibly juicy, tender, and full of flavor. It was perfectly grilled and seasoned just right, the kind of dish where every bite is better than the last. You could really taste how fresh everything was. My four year old loved the chicken and the rice was delicious. We also ordered the combination plate, which was fantastic. It came with a great variety of Mediterranean Dave's including the best falafel I have had, seasoned chicken, fresh rice, and all the classic sides that complement the dish so well. It's a great option if you want to try a little bit of everything, and everything on the plate was flavorful and well prepared. What really stood out to me though was the hospitality. The owner's kindness and welcoming attitude made the whole experience feel personal, not just like another quick meal out. Between the delicious food, the warm service, and the clean, comfortable space, this place really deserves the 5 stars. We will absolutely be back. Highly recommend Sultan's if you're in the area!
