Jannat Restaurant

Just had a delicious dinner at Jannat! We were so excited to go since we had tried their free samples after the 4th of July parade. We had the haydari to start, and my sister and I split two mains: boso lagman and shawarma wrap chicken. Both were incredibly flavorful and the portions were very generous. We ate the wrap first and only had a little of the boso lagman because we were so full! I definitely need to go back to try their dessert. The service and environment are so warm and welcoming, thank you so much!

The owners did an awesome job renovating the place.As you entered, tables are set placemats, plates, silverware, and cloth napkin.This place is a full service dining restaurant. Overall service was wonderful and the staff was very helpful with the menu and recommending apps, dishes, and drinks for first timers. Their menu offers food Europe, Central Asia, Turkey. You're offered complimentary Pita Bread as a starter. We ordered the Pelmeni, Chicken Kabob, Plov, Fruit Tea, Zavarnye, and Honey Cake.Everything was yummy! Portions are decent so definitely explore, order a few items and do it Family Style. They also offer lunch specials for $20.We will be back to other menu items!

Nice trio of super interesting staff from central Asia. I had fun learning about who they were and the new culture they are about, similar to Mongolian but not...The decor is pretty and Mediterranean Greece vibes for me... and the menu is refreshingly different! There are some things that seem familiar but others that I have never heard about, and that IS unusual. I eat out a lot! :-)It's definitely a nice adventure in this area where there are a million KBBQs and Korean chicken franchises.

Wonderful Turkish & Central Asian cuisine. Very authentic menu variety.Complimentary pita comes out once seated. Today we had beef plov, pelmeni soup that has beef dumplings, chicken kabobs, choban similar to a Greek salad, fruit tea, honey cake, and a cream puff.Friendly kind staff. Just a very unique food experience overall. Casual dining with about 13 tables in the restaurant. Steady busy but no wait on a Fri night. Will be back! Happy to have a place like this nearby. Avg entree costs $17-20. Check for all this was $74 after tax.

Nice EurAsian restaurant in Rolling Meadows catering to a population that is underserved in the area. They are on a corner with plenty of parking. The restaurant is really nice and clean, along with delicious food. This is a new restaurant in Rolling Meadows and has a great selection of kabobs, doner, Asian, and soups! We tried quite a bit as first timers and were very pleased. We tried yogurt with beetroot and I absolutely loved it! It was served with bread that wasn't a pita, but worked well with it. We also had the Kazak Beef Soup and the portion is enormous. I suggest sharing the soups or having that as a full meal. The bowls are really for sharing, even though they say it's for one person. The noodles in the soup were thin and flat, also made in-house, not from a box. You can absolutely taste it's being homemade. The other entrée was Gan Fan, a beef with rice and Asian taste to it. It was a beautiful dish and plenty for sharing. Finally we finished off with a honey cake and it wasn't as sweet as expected. Accompanied by mint tea, our dessert was a delicious way to finish off. Overall, everyone was friendly, the restaurant was clean, and the prices were extremely reasonable. We really enjoyed it and are looking forward to coming back and trying new dishes!

I was fortunate to be able to visit Jannat Restaurant on the second day of opening. It's run by the owners of Arzan Cafe in Chicago. Jannat offers both Uzbek and Turkish cuisine.When you first arrive here, it may look strange from the outside, but don't judge a book by its cover. This location used to be a Taco Bell, so the building has that look to it and the drive-thru lane is still there. The inside is nicely done, though. Nice white tables and chairs, nice ceiling work, and plenty of natural light. There was no music playing, but since it's a big open space, I wonder if it would get loud in there during very busy times.Service was friendly, and I love the fact that the menu included photos of the dishes for those not familiar with the cuisine. We ordered a tandor samsa, boso lagman, and chuchvara.The tandor samsa was kind of a flop. The bread was hard and dry (I think it got overcooked), so part of it was unedible. The meat inside was decent, though.The boso lagman was a noodle dish with beef and vegetables. At first it looked like spaghetti, but the noodles were top-notch. Great texture and the right amount of chewiness. Good flavor in this dish, although some of the meat pieces were a bit tough.The chuchvara was the star of the show today. This is a soup dish with mini dumplings. The dumplings were soft and meaty, and the broth was super flavorful. The veggies were cooked to perfection; soft but not mushy. And there was extra meat within the soup broth. Very hearty dish and perfect for a cold day.Pricing was fair. Please note they serve water in bottles and charge for those.Can't wait to come back and try some other dishes to further compare Jannat with Chinar and Anjir.

I know this is a somewhat new restaurant. It's located in an old Taco Bell building so they have their own parking lot. First things first, I'll have to deduct some stars. The service overall was mid. That definitely needs to be improved. After we got seated and looked over the menu, it took a bit of time before the server came to us. No problem. She pretty much disappeared and it was the guy that was mostly tending to us. It wasn't busy so I know they weren't swamped. The service needs to be more attentive like asking if you need any boxes, are you interested in some desserts, and taking our plates away before dessert. Unfortunately, I give this place an overall 2.5/5. It's like a one and done for me unless the service and food quality is immensely improved.-complimentary bread 5/5 - shaped like two slices of pizza. Bread was soft and tasted great with the butter.-Turkish tea 5/5 - 0.99 and free refills. It's good hot tea for dinner.-haydari 3 - nice, creamy texture for the yogurt sauce with herbs, goes well with the bread. However, they gave us 4 small pieces of bread for a big plate of sauce. They should have given a better ratio of bread to sauce. They didn't give us a spoon or anything with it.-pelmeni soup 5/5 - i really like soup. Very savory although he gave us a sauce without explaining what to do with it with the soup. Broth was very flavorful. Ground beef inside the dumplings were cooked to perfection.-lamb kuurdak 2 - lamb could have been softer and more juicy. It was a little dry. Potatoes were soft and tasty.-boso lagman 3 - noodles had a good chewy texture. Unfortunately, not a whole lot of beef in the dish. There is more meat in the picture than what you get.-manty 5/5 - best main dish. Generous portion size. Big pieces of bed inside. Not too salty.-honey cake 5/5 - wasn't too sweet. Raw honey was more subtle. Soft texture and great after taste.

Food was amazing, attentive service and very authentic flavors. We loved our first visit here and look forward to exploring more of their extensive menu. Finished off with a nice tea and dessert selection.

This was my second visit to Jannat Restaurant. The first time, my friend and I ordered two different menu items. Each was superbly cooked. I was extremely pleased, so much that I decided to bring my granddaughter, who has eaten the same type of food in Morocco. Such a disappointment! The food was good enough, but...My granddaughter's order was brought out quickly--mine followed about 20 minutes later, although I had asked about it several times. You go to a restaurant to share, not to watch someone else eat! When I finally got my order, it was not as described. I specifically ordered the assorted grill because I wanted grilled vegetables, not french fries, along with the meats. No veggies. They said the menu was wrong. Then they should have corrected it. I will not be going back. Try the food because it tastes good, but don't expect good service or to get what you expect.

The shawarma is really small for its price,The staff is friendly and everything only the shawarma is really small l
