    The food and service was great! The best we have had. We randomly stopped here and we will definitely be back. The chef is top level! Thank you.

    Came here on a whim after getting off work late. I was met with a friendly hello and she took my order. As I waited for my food, I looked around rhe dining area which was sparse but people were eating and chatting. I received my food and bolted home to dig in. The gyro was good but different than what I'm used to. There wasn't any raw onions or tomatoes, but it had grilled/sautéed onion on it. The tzatziki sauce was on the bottom and it "melted" so I wasn't able to really taste it. The flavors were on point but I might have to ask for the raw onions and tomatoes the next time. Don't get me wrong it was a good gyro and it hit the spot even though it was a little off target.

    Mr. kabab food is DELICIOUS! And TASTY!! Flavor upon flavor had made my tummy happy. The food is very filling I couldn't even finish my plate had it for lunch and dinner. It also came with a side of soup, Again #DELICIOUS. The workers are nice and friendly. Coming from Florida to Chicago this place was the first place we stopped by for food. That was a great kick off to many more food spot to hit in Chicago. Keep it up Mr.Kabab!

    Trust me, this is the man that can make you happy with your belly

    My Syrian friend makes the best. Freaking shawarma wraps I've ever had. Great flavor. Super friendly guy. Always want to be eating his food. Location is amazing.

    I love this humble place because of its location and accessibility. The price is reasonable yet the food tastes fantastic. I personally love their Chicken Shawarma and greek salad. It's so nice to see that they serve Horchata and jamaica too.

    If you follow my reviews, then you know I try Schwarber from everywhere. This is my first time at this restaurant, and the Shawarma is fantastic. The rice, fantastic. The lentil soup will surprise you how delicious it is.

    My fave place for Mediterranean food. Always so good and fresh. Huge portions too which can feed up to 2-3 people. Highly recommend this place!

    Chilla-Fry! Wow!!!

    Been to way to many middle Eastern restaurants, and this hits home. Hands down, just like my dad use to make it. You have to try it.

    This my second time here ordering for pick up through Grubhub Pickup. I love this place! It's super convenient since it's on Peterson Plaza( one block from me). I'm a fatty and I was stuffed with the chicken shawarma entree, the amount of food is perfect for left overs. The staff is highly friendly and professional. I think the owner was there too. Again, support small businesses. This is a top notch new place to order to go or even safely dine in. I will be coming back here.

    I've come here with my boyfriend a handful of times and we love it. We like to try different…read morecocktails every time. The mimosa on a nice summer day on the patio is my happy place. The entrees are amazing too. The rice with the chicken skewer is my favorite so far and my boyfriend loves the beef and lamb skewer. The service has always been great as well. We've had the same server a couple times now and she's friendly and gets the job done. (Wish I could remember her name!) The ambience is great. With natural light coming in and the soft lamps, it's calming. Truly a beautiful restaurant.

    So disappointed. I…read morecame about 5 years ago and loved my meal, especially the sticky date cake, which lingered in my memory as my favorite all time dessert. This year I was so excited to bring my family and Ema was the only restaurant in Chicago I couldn't wait for them to try. I booked it as our final meal in Chicago and lay awake at 4am being so disappointed in my choice. Our server's greeting was monotone and emotionless, which I realize now, would be foreshadowing the meal to come. Ordered the following 1) Smoky eggplant- arrived appearing as an unappetizing curdled purple grey mush. This was the worst tasting baba ghanouj I have ever eaten. It was acidic and had the texture of cottage cheese. The only redeeming thing about this appetizer was the warm naan. 2) house made stratciatella with side of green falafels- The stratciatella was bland and stringy. I would not order this dish expecting the creamy interior of typical burrata. However, if you like string cheese mixed with heavy cream- you may enjoy this dish. The tomatoes and basil were good. 3) chicken kefta- kefta was bland, rice even blander . 4) short rib with polenta- bland and the meat and polenta had the same texture, which seems impossible but somehow the plating was over complicated by the addition of mushy dates and grapes. 5) buttered noodles- my 8 year old ordered this. It was decent with a good amount of Parmesan and cooked perfectly al dente. By the end of the meal, I was so shocked by how terrible the food was I didn't even want to order the sticky date cake that was my main purpose for returning to this restaurant. Ema, what happened to you?!
