Falafel & Grill

I love falafel and grill. It's quick, it's reasonably priced, it's tasty. The kifta kabob plate is delicious and has generous portions. Meat is super juicy and bouncy with nice herbs and spices. I usually order ahead online and check with counter staff to pick up my food. There are plenty of tables inside to sit and eat. It's a very casual ambiance, no need to dress up or make reservations. The yellow rice is flavorful and pitas are fresh. There are street parking spots available in the area and it's close to the division blue line stop.

Going here on a whim to escape the rain was a great idea! It wasn't too busy inside for a Friday dinner, music was blasting a bit, and the food was ready fairly quickly. The drinks are self-serve.Falafel Plate: A good portion of food for the price! It came with hummus that had spices, olive oil, and chickpeas. There was a slight peanutty taste to the hummus, which was odd. We ended up asking for the spicy sauce on the side after already digging in and realizing none was provided to us.Waffle Fries: Standard waffle fries. Crispy, good portions, and ketchup bottles are on each table to help yourself. Baklava: When ordering, you are given a ticket with a number, so you just sit down and wait for your order to get called. I forgot about the baklava I ordered until I craved something sweet and realized it hadn't been given with my entree. There's a stack of baklava by the registrar, which I had seen but didn't comprehend I could just...grab it and go. I assumed it would be handed over?

Placed a takeout order online via their website for the combo meal plate, with some extra meat on the side so two of us could share. I arrived about 5-10 minutes before quoted time as we were already in the neighborhood and there were probably 5+ others sitting inside waiting for their orders. I didn't see anyone eating inside though there are plenty of tables.Our order ended up taking longer than quoted but the staff were friendly and apologized for the wait. The food was still hot and looked good by the time we got home to eat. One of kifta kabobs ordered was overly charred and dry but the rest of the platter was solid. I wish they would get better quality pita, the one they provide tasted like cardboard such a bummer.

My cousin Kenny was in town so of course we had a handful of Chicago handshakes the night before. Waking up I felt like polar bear in Mexico. So, to reboot and regain awareness of my surroundings, meat was the only option. I mean who doesn't love a tender meat stick in their mouth in the morning...?While the appeal was the Yelp rating, the repel is the rice/meat ratio. It was around 6 slivers of "gyro" to a 1/2 lb of rice. Not to mention the upcharge for the "spicy" sauce which was a red pepper flake - ketchup based concoction. Was really hoping for a meat comma to revive my organs and provide pressure to detox out what I consumed the night before. Nope, need a girthy Gyro meat. Gonna take my $18 to Chipotle next time and have a proper afternoon breakfast.

We get delivery from this place on a regular basis. They frequently have great specials. My beautiful wife, and I like to get the Shawarma wraps with a side of the lentil soup. The lentil soup is one of our favorite things on the menu, it's very lemony and goes great with a couple turns of black pepper to finish it off with. Also, the appetizers are really good here. We really like the hummus as well as the baba G and the tabbouleh salad. My advice to you is to order some extra pita with these appetizers so you don't run out. If you have any extra leftover, it saves well in the freezer.I have eaten in house as well, it's kind of a fast food type atmosphere, but the service is really good. This is quality food at a decent price. It's one of my favorite things to order delivery when I don't feel like cooking.

Food: the meats are super tasty, my fav is the chicken shawarma. And always my must order. Chicken kebab and hummus are good too, the only thing that I don't like is the rice. Service: the staffs are friendly, try their best to satisfy customers' requestAmbiance: I always offer take out, but every single time I will just stay in front of the order area, just like to watching how they grill the meat

Food is amazing! My friend and I split the beef shawarma plate and some falafels on the side and enjoyed every single bite. The hummus was perfect and the rice was flavorful.My only critique were the workers! So creepy!! Would not stop staring us up and down and made us feel un safe even when we were walking outside the street. Gross. Food is bomb though, maybe next time we'll do takeout?

Good food via quick kiosk order, meal, and unlimited fountain drink about $20The interior vibe is an ME fast food joint, but the food is spectacular and authentic and is freshly made, with a very popular patio tou might get for these summer nights.Was dinner before the Den Theater nearby, and always a nice stop... service is perfunctory but fast, and they gave more pita to my pal per request.

Absolutely delicious place! We ordered it on ubereats and it arrived piping hot! There was chicken beef and other deliciousness! I was in Dubai recently and there's a lot of Lebanese Turkey and authentic middle eastern food and this probably rivals to that ! So happy to have found a yummy place in Chicago as my go to middle eastern restaurant! Five stars!

small mediterranean restaurant in wicker park neighborhood. had a later dinner and saw that falafel & grill was open.order and pay at the counter, plenty of indoor seating. no frills and service was fast but not the most friendly. they were reluctant to give us two extra plates and utensils.// gyro & chicken shawarma plates //we shared two plates between three people, plenty of food. plate comes with yellow rice, salad, hummus, tzatziki, meat, pita bread, etc. meat to rice ratio was a bit low but glad there was a lot of vegetables.overall, tasted pretty good. lacked a little bit of flavor but reasonable price for the quantity.
