Went here for their VIP pre-opening event. Have been to other Roti restaurants, so I wanted to see how this new one compares. Love the artwork on the side walls, they had a contest and an artist won with this design. This restaurant is narrow and long, there is limited seating for approximately 30 people inside. They do have a sidewalk patio area that seats an additional 8. The service was very fast and if you have never been to a Roti restaurant before, the employees will explain the process to you. You have your choice of a wrap or pita, rice plate or salad bowl. Then you choose a protein, chicken roti, chicken kabob, steak roti, spicy lamb meatballs, salmon kabob or falafel. You then choose as many sides, tippings and sauces as you want. Started off with a rice plate, chicken roti and steak roti with tomatoe and cucumber, red cabbage slaw, fresh vegetables, olives, feta cheese and lemon oregano pickles. My plate came with a whole wheat pita and everything was fresh and delicious. I think that this is a perfect location for a new Roti location, a casual healthy and fast food restaurant. read more

The sides are a meal in themselves. For 50 cents you can order extra pitas. I ordered the Alvarado humus and yogurt. They also have outstanding purple cabbage as a side dish. Everything pictured was just a little over $10 and it covered multiple meals. read more

The skirt steak Brussels sprouts bowl is inedible. Meat is tasteless and overcook. Sprouts are few and uncooked . One of the worst meals I've ever eaten. I would have given no stars but then I could not post. read more

Delicious veggie bowl with a variety of toppings and friendly staff - the cauliflower rice option is especially yummy

Warm and nice seating area. Worker was super friendly!! Also the bowl was yummy and at a good price for the amount of options. Comparable to Chipotle but higher quality as it is Mediterranean read more

Mediterranean Chipotle is what my mind thinks lol, personally not for me considering I don't like Mediterranean but if you like Mediterranean food you will like this quick fix! Considering I don't like Mediterranean and I finished my bowl says something read more

I like this place a lot. I go here for lunch as it's pretty close to my office. The food can be a bit acidic but it is still delicious. It's quick and easy and the staff are nice. read more

Servings (of anything but the rice) are comically tiny. Not that you'd really want bigger portions when the ingredients aren't fresh. For example, the cabbage salad was inedibly bitter. This place used to serve good food. Not anymore. Go to Naf Naf if you're able. read more

Great, flavorful, wholesome food. Delightful staff. Sorry there's not a way to tip them.

Natasha helped me out and she was so sweet. When the customer service feels good it makes you want to come back. I'm so happy I chose this place. She walked me through the menu and gave me recommendations. Tastes delicious and was so filling! read more

Roti - Lil' Lamb Cauliflower Rice. - Mediterranean Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Consistent, fast and delicious. This is the Roti I stop by on my way home from work and have picked up here several times. By the end of the day there isn't much of a line so ordering and getting something to go is easy. The service is usually friendly and I have never had any issues with transactional accuracy or food quality. read more

Abominable. Found a giant piece of plastic in my meal. This is a hazardous, careless, disgusting place to eat. Demanded a refund and exited as quickly as possible. read more

Always great. Fast pickup service during the lunch rush on Tuesday. They have a nice outdoor seating area for the summer. read more

Roti - Build Your Own Salad - Mediterranean Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

We randomly stumbled on this place while visiting Chicago, we were walking and looking for a lunch spot that wouldn't require a drawn out sit-down meal. Roti was a great find, and we loved our lunch (signature rice plates, classic pita, lentil soup) fresh, fast, affordable, delicious, naturally colorful and beautiful presentation. read more

It was my first time here and I'm totally a fan! This place is essentially a "Mediterranean style" chipotle. Similar concept but with more to choose from. You select a base, protein, sauce, and sides/toppings. I got the chicken roti rice plate with all the sides and the roasted pepper & garlic sauce. It was super tasty and quite filling. The chicken was full of flavors, seasoned very well. For the sides, my favorites were the hummus, cous cous, and red cabbage slaw. Loved the basmati and wild rice blend as well. Everything just tasted so good together and was very colorful too. Couldn't believe that my meal ended up being less than $9. Generous portion size and great quality food. Roti is a solid choice for a quick meal in the Loop. Will be back! read more

Excellent stop for a delicious lunch! I would say it is like Chipotle or Qdoba for Mediterranean food although a heck of a lot better. We both ordered the chicken roti on a pita and loaded it with as much as we could stuff in it, and it was all great - cucumber dill sauce, red pepper sauce, hummus, kale with chickpeas, lemon oregano pickles, couscous and feta cheese. And there were about 12 more ingredients that we did not have room to try. So my mouth is watering 5 hours later writing this review. And I am ready to go back! read more

Always my go to when I dont want to cook. Be careful- the red sauce is hot! But oh so delicious.

Roti is great. Their rice bowls are fresh, flavorful, and a good value. My favorite is the chicken roti rice bowl with almost all the fixings added. The staff at this location is very friendly and efficient. For seating here, there is 1 large round table and a long bar along the window. I'd say the place could seat about 20 people maximum. read more

The protein bowl was so good.. but $20? The seating offers privacy, so i was able to get a lot of work done there. Nice music choices and clean bathrooms as well. One of the ladies working was being very loud though. read more

We were just walking by and saw this restaurant just right across the street. We tried veggie roti wrap and bowl and kids pizza. All the three were really yummy and would definitely go again. Loved it. They have sitting outside snd inside. Staff was wearing masks and social distancing was in place. read more

This place y'all. This place. I'm from Miami and we have soo many food variations that it's tough to impress me anymore but I was so excited to try Roti because I love Mediterranean dishes. I was in the area looking for some cute spots to grab a bite after having some drinks and as soon as I saw this spot, I had to try it. Yum yum yum, I got there a few minutes before closing but I was still able to try their delicious combos. The guys working there were super helpful in helping me pick the sauces and very patient with me because I had left my wallet outside so I had to rush back. I would come back probably a little bit earlier just so I get to try their other combos! read more

Roti - Mediterranean Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

This spot is practically a member of my family with how frequently it sits on my dining table. I have never dined in, I have only grabbed to-go. Super fast and friendly staff. Chicken is flavorful and there are so many healthy options to add into your meal. I don't find that their portions are small, in fact my plate is usually almost overflowing! $10 is a reasonable price for lunch food in the loop and I don't mind paying it because they use spices and have variety which is hard to come by in the immediate area! read more

Roti - Roti Chicken Salad with all the fixings - Mediterranean Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Always a Roti fan...this was our first visit to this location and it was very good. We both ordered salads and they had a number of greens to choose from. Service was very quick even though there was a line of about 10 people in front of us. Our food moved quickly down the line and we were able to customize to our preferences. Toppings were ample and fresh. There was ample seating even though it's a bit tight in this location, but people generally come and go pretty quickly. There are seats at the window so you can watch the street action as you dine. read more

My favorite fast casual Mediterranean food option. For less than $10, I can get a bowl piled high with delicious chicken roti, rice, any sauces I want, any sides and any toppings (no limit!) - so you better believe I go for it. I love the cabbage slaw with carrots, cucumber and tomato salad, flavorful couscous, and seasonal offerings like the eggplant. And you KNOW I top that with hummus, pickles, feta, and olives (none of which are extra). Plus a free fresh baked pita! This place is so great! read more

Roti - Chicken roti bowl so dope - Mediterranean Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I got the beet lovers bowl. I love beets. It was delicious. I would say this was a nice twist on Mediterranean food and was not solely the stuff you find everywhere else. I would definitely go here again! read more

This place is good so far. However. From time to time the rice is too starchy or crispy. And the consistency of the rice varies. I think it needs a little more quality control. But besides that all of the other ingredients are delicious. read more

Roti - The "Flip the Bird" which comes with rice. - Mediterranean Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

The portion size is ridiculously small especially for $16 a bowl. Flavors are bland. The Brussel sprouts included in the dish are just the outside of Brussel sprouts peeled and placed in the dish (as opposed to whole or cut Brussel sprouts). read more

Stoped in for a quick dinner with a friend last night, before a concert in Millennium Park. It was my first time at this location. This is is like a Chipolte (only better). You go through a line and choose your ingredients. We both started with romaine and mixed greens. I topped mine with marinated grass fed sirloin, humus, couscous, olives, feta, pickled onions, cucumbers and tomatoes. Other toppings were available, but my bowl was already brimming. The creamy dressing was mild and didn't overpower the other ingredients. Everying was super fresh, including the warm pita bread that's included Portions are very large (my eyes were bigger than my stomach). Prices are afffordable... I think my salad was about $11 with tax.The place is clean. And the people working here are cheerful and friendly. The restaurant wasn't very busy, only a few tables were filled. There are a few empty tables outside. But there were a lot of take-out customers, probably concert-goers. Because of the location, I imagine it's busier at lunch. I really like this chain, and especially this location. Very few places where I can get the portions of protein, carbs and fat exactly to my liking. A winner. read more

Roti - Super fresh ingredients. - Mediterranean Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Their food is decent. Some of it lacks flavor/seasoning, that's why they get four stars. Overall, seemingly healthy and fresh. Their falafel is delicious. It isn't crispy, it's soft. I really enjoy it. Maybe it isn't deep fried and baked instead? That'd be neat. You can choose amongst getting a sandwich or a plate. The plate you can choose a salad base (romaine, mixed greens, etc) or rice base. Carbs are life, so I always get rice. Besides, I get lettuce on top anyways. Best of both worlds! I get extra of all of the veggies. Their olive mix makes the plate of food, probably bc of the saltiness. And the texture of the cous cous is nice. Hummus comes with it, which is great. The green spicy sauce is the best. I get extra of it. Oh, and you get a free whole wheat pita-type bread with the bowl, too. Their employees are nice and helpful. read more

I really liked this place. The prices are reasonable and the amount of food was surprising (I am not sure if it's always this way or the girl working there at the moment was super generous). My friend got a Falafel Salad and I got a Chicken Kabob Laffa wrap. I liked the toppings but I would not recommend getting the Laffa since the toppings arr so watery (mostly the red cabbage and the pickled onions), that the Laffa gets really soggy really fast. Next time I will either try the Pita or get a Salad! There will definitely be a next time though :) read more

Roti - Falafel Salad - Mediterranean Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Yelp is not allowing to put the real review for the bad experience of service. I visited this restaurant last week almost just 30 minutes before they close for TOGO. I ordered Salmon Kababs. To avoid soggy pita sandwich, I requested to serve the pita on side, instead of getting pocket pita. The lady server had lot of time to just understand this request. Finally a guy, may be manager, stepped in to help and on explaining again agreed to serve pita on side. I was craving for falafel. So I also requested to serve falafel on side. The manager mentioned $3.15 for 3 falafel as side. He also mentioned 1 falafel for ¢50. I questioned about his math and explained that if I take 3 falafels separately it doesn't add up to $3.15. He keep on insisting that as side its $3.15. Finally, I decided to not get falafel at all! This was even when I was only person in entire restaurant and they had full tray of falafel sitting there just few minutes before closing. Many times I had pleasant experience w/ restaurants where the servers courteously just pack free food. Here, the manager was just trying to get more money with weird math logic. Just next day I visited Naf Naf Grille, and food flavor and service wise Naf Naf was far far better than Roti! read more

Got hooked up with a ton of food every time I come here! Probably the best fast casual chicken you can get, and the roasted red pepper sauce is bomb. Perfect balance between protein, carbs and veggies makes this my go-to place to refuel after a workout. read more

Roti - Mediterranean Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

In terms of grabbing a quick lunch in the loop, Roti is one of your best bets. They focus on fast, healthful Mediterranean food that's bursting with flavor. I had a falafel plate with cabbage slaw, couscous, hummus, and feta cheese. All of the elements on the plate were excellent. The veggies were fresh and crisp, while the hummus was creamy. I really enjoyed that they offer feta as a topping, as I feel it adds a nice boost of protein and flavor. I almost forgot to mention, their pickled red onions are to die for. This location is extremely clean and the staff is efficient. This location is about a 20 minute walk from my work and well worth it! I highly recommend is as a quick and healthy lunch option downtown. read more

Great healthy fast food. I love that you can get a salad bowl with choice of protein and UNLIMITED toppings. Some Mediterranean establishments limit you to two or three toppings. Love all of them including the hummus! Optional is a perfect little whole wheat pita. I always look fir Roti when I'm in a hurry. read more

Nice fresh ingredients, lots of choices and healthy things to chose from. We had lunch there and the food was really good!

Highly recommend this place as a fast causal for lunch or dinner. Lamb meatballs are AMAZING. Recommend the dill and yogurt sauce as well as the tahini and the roasted red pepper sauce. Friendly staff and easy to get- reminds me of a Greek styled Chipotle. Love this place and will keep going back! Now they just need to open more locations near Gold Coast and river north read more

This is the second time that I've ordered delivery from Roti and had a great experience. I got the pita sandwich and it was so delicious! Serving sizes are huge and the pita is packed to the brim. Flavor is great and they have a variety of available sides. Two of us split an order of falafel (3 pc), a spicy feta hummus (SO GOOD), and a pita sandwich each and we were stuffed! Good take out option at a reasonable price. read more

A bit pricey for the amount of food you get. Minimal food maybe due to covid, or not preparing as much. So some items were not available. But it was quick and easy. Not busy at all. read more

This is my favorite quick lunch spot in the loop. So yummy and feels a little bit more healthy than many of the other options. Love that you can get so many toppings for no extra charge. Pro tip: It does get super busy during lunch, so I recommend ordering online and then just walking in and picking it up. This saves time by not having to wait in line and order, but also the restaurant has somewhat limited seating. read more
