Sila's Mediterranean is a gem. The build-your-own bowls are fresh, flavorful, and memorable--still thinking about the cauliflower days later. Every ingredient tasted like it was prepared with care and intention. The service stood out, too. The servers were warm, inviting, and helpful in guiding the experience as we made our selections. The playlist set a good vibe in the space as well. We stopped by on a warm Saturday evening and were fortunate to grab an outdoor table. Bonus: it's a short walk from the lakefront and Diversey driving range if you're looking to pair a nourishing meal with an activity. Would definitely return. read more

Love this concept for Mediterranean food! Quick and easy, great portions, and awesome pricing. Customizable options that cater to a variety of dietary restrictions which was a nice option being vegetarian. It was a friendly and welcoming experience and the atmosphere was very cute and vibe-y. read more

Great concept, a lot of options to meet any dietary requirements. You can make a low carb, low calorie, low fat, high protein bowl... or the opposite. Steak and shrimp were great, loved the tzatziki and spicy feta. I don't live nearby but I'll make a point to come again. read more

Stopped in for lunch and was blown away. You choose the base of your bowl, the protein and the toppings. They have a really nice variety of combinations, so you could potentially eat something completely different each time you visit. I heard a lot of people order the spicy rich, I'll get that as the base next time. The chicken was delicious. The toppings refreshing. Got a side of hummus and it was incredible. Smooth, silky consistency. We got an extra order to go and it only lasted 2 days at home. Staff was so nice and helpful. Explaining a bit about the menu as we were first timers and little lost. Servings are huge and you could make two decent meals from one bowl. If you add in a side of hummus you'll deff be full and have leftovers. Will be back soon. read more

Pretty good Mediterranean food on Broadway. We stopped by for a late lunch and ordered a Mediterranean Chicken Bowl and a Steak Bowl. You get several options for the base and the toppings with a pita on the side. The staff was super friendly and helped with recommendations for toppings and sauces. The place has plenty of seating and cold water in clay pots which was cool. read more

I ordered takeout from here and got a bowl with spicy rice, Sila's chicken and several toppings. The chicken was really good- the flavor and texture were great. The sauces were also very good. The spicy sauce was just spicy enough that it was hot but didn't take away from the rest of the bowl. The pita (included with the bowl) was a nice touch. The service was solid. They were quick and willing to let me sample a few sauces before deciding on one. Even though I ordered takeout this time, I really like the restaurant. (I've dined in on several occasions). The Mediterranean decor provides a unique fast-casual dining experience. If you're not looking for a Michelin quality meal, but instead just want something quick and tasty, I can't recommend Sila's highly enough. PS- the Athletic Brew tall boy in my photo was purchased down the street, not from Sila's. read more

Really good in the neighborhood. The menu is just the right amount of choices and the offerings seem authentic. Very clean and well appointed. Plenty of space to stretch out and enjoy your meal. Some of the better Mediterranean and gyros I've had in Lakeview. Full of flavor with homemade tiziki and pita bread. great choices on side dishes like the fried potatoes are excellent and non greasy. Surprisingly good price points and an all around an excellent choice for lunch or dinner on Broadway in Lakeview. read more

Amazing, delicious, fresh, omg I'm obsessed. I live in west loop and I want to move to lake view just for Silas. We ordered chicken bowls with a base of white rice, potatoes, and carrots. 100/10. For sauces we had Silas sauce and the Garlic sauce. Also had a side of the creamiest hummus I've ever had. The portions are very generous. I can't wait to go back. read more

I've been here several times last year and always had a good experience. It appears that business has picked up since my last visit they hired two new people. They'll get you in and out in no time. I usually get a sandwich whether it be their daily specials or one of their hand-made beef gyros sandwiches with delicious ingredients and a can of pop runs $12.00 with tax. They are busy on the weekends, so you're best bet is to take the bus or Uber, as parking is nearly impossible. read more

Sila's Mediterranean Restaurant - Home-made Beef Gyros Sandwich - Mediterranean Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

3.5 stars because I love the food at this place; it is fresh and healthy. However, each time there is something missing from the bowls we order or something left out of the order. The atmosphere is pretty plain. I still like the food despite the multiple set backs in service and organization. read more

Was good, a little pricey but I guess that's fine. Sauces were good and chicken bowl was good. Worth a quick visit if you want a quick meal and healthier food read more

Love how customizable the dishes are! Went with the pita and it did not disappoint! The pita was so fresh and delicious I'd go back just for plain ones to have at home. The pita was so stuffed I ended up taking the lentil soup home for later. Also tried the baklava (which is vegan). I love traditional baklava and while you def notice the missing honey, it was still very good! Can't believe it's taken me a year to try this place and I look forward to trying more off the menu. read more

Sila's Mediterranean Restaurant - Pita with falafel and lentil soup - Mediterranean Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Food: The shawarma at Sila's is absolutely delicious! The chicken is super tender and flavorful. You can add as many topping as want to your wrap or bowl. You must add hummus and harissa sauce. It's the perfect combination of creamy and spice. If you decide to add rice to your wrap go with the spiced rice, it's earthy and pairs really well with any protein. I can't wait to come back. Service: Fast and friendly! Ambiance: I feel like I've been transferred to a happy sunflower field. It's just a delightful place to escape the gloomy days in Chicago. read more

Silas Mediterranean Restraunt really is a sight to see. The inside of the restraunt really is like going back in time. The food was good since one can build a bowl of their choice! The only thing that I didn't like was the temperature of the inside of the shop. read more

Underrated spot. If you're looking for something filling, good for you, and at a decent price Sila's does the trick!

Service was nice - they explained how the ordering works. The gyro was good and you can pick some sides and sauces. The inside of the restaurant is quite cute. If you're in the area, it's worth trying! Down one star because one of the workers went into the bathroom and was in there for a super long time. All the while they have their own employee bathroom. It was really annoying waiting to just wash my hands when the employee could have easily gone to their own employee bathroom. read more

First of all LOVE the sunflower theme! Everywhere is so warm and bright it's so welcoming to walk into. I got the Falafel Pita with eggplant base. YUM! The menu was kind of confusing but with some staff help I got it. I highly recommend the spicy feta and the spiced tahini and garlic sauce. I have never put eggplant on a pita before, genius. Mhmm every bite was delicious. It was all just such a good mix. Also such a good price. read more

The restaurant is small, but cozy. We had a falafel sandwich wrap, and a gyro. Both were very good. The Taziki sauce on the euro was outstanding. Also had some fries which had a great little spice chick, and a nice dipping sauce that comes with. The service was excellent too. They gave us plenty of options to customize our wraps. We will definitely be back. read more

My favorite food in the world. Their daily cakes are always amazing. I usually just get it to go but the atmosphere is cute for dining in as well. I hope they stay in business forever lol read more

This place was so cute -- I adored the sunflower decor. The food was also really good. I just got the falafels sandwich (it's a wrap) and everything in it was yummy and the wrap itself was so good. When I'm back in Lakeview, I'd definitely stop by again to try a gyro or something similar. I also want to try their spicy rice. read more

Pretty basic food with decent flavors,execution wasn't top notch .interior and service is below part.

Really good counter-service Mediterranean restaurant, perfect for lunch. I like that you can customize our own bowls, falafel was very good

Love this place. Hangover sandwich & Salad bowl w chicken are my go-to. Dont forget banana peppers &side of potatoes. Delicious read more

Sila's is one of my Lakeview takeout go-to spots. Their food is fairly priced, the staff is polite, and my order is always ready before the estimated window. The Create Your Own Pita is a generous portion, and I recommend the falafel for your protein. Lots of Mediterranean spots overdo their falafel into tough hockey pucks, but Sila's falafel has a lot a flavor and great texture. The garlic sauce is also a fave for the garlic fangirls out there. read more

A lot of different options available. I liked that they have an allergen guide on their website. I got a bowl, and it was slightly more expensive than I anticipated but it tasted pretty good. It fills you up especially if you get the pita bread that comes with it. read more

This past weekend we absolutely loveeeeed trying out Sila's! The portions are HUGE and relatively inexpensive for what you get - and everything tastes soooo good! We both had variations of the chicken pita - but we both agreed that the spicy feta is a MUST! Ordering happens right up at their counter where you customize your pita, bowl, or salad in real time. The server was so patient with me as I picked out my customizations! I ended up doing a chicken pita with spicy rice, pickled red onions, cucumber, feta AND spicy feta, taboula salad, tzatziki and garlic sauce. It was a HUGE pita. The seating space inside is so cute & very well decorated. I'm obsessed with this place and will definitely be going back often. read more

Amazing! Strongly recommended I am familiar with Mediterranean food and this place serves one of the best !
