Golden Fingers

Honestly it was a weird experience. I had chicken biryani and another person had gyros fries which came with cheddar cheese sauce? We were also given complimentary bananas. Yeah I'm still confused about the whole thing. But the food was good. The food seems to be a mix of Indian, Mediterranean and even some African dishes/traditions. The menu is on 3 tvs which rotate the image so you can't study them for long. I have a feeling there are more dishes that weren't listed. I repeat- this was a weird experience compared to most dining situations here in the US. But yeah we liked the food.The other weird thing is the TVs in the dining room were BLASTING CNN. It was so loud and they were talking all politics. I'm not a super fan of cable news over dinner, but YMMV. We didn't ask them to change it or turn it down.

I would definitely come again! This place was a whole in the wall. Service was good, everyone was asking if I needed anything else. The soup was soooooo good!! The biryani was amazing, bets I've had in a while. The hummus and samosa was okay but still good. It was a little hectic and we didn't know how to sit or where to order. But it was so good, I need to come back!

I'm still confused about why this place is named Golden Fingers (making a mental note to ask next time) but don't let it deter you from trying this place out! A friend and I needed to go to a theater show nearby & found this place on yelp. The fact that they had a deal for 10% off your first order led us to choose this place over others. We needed to find a place that was also vegetarian-friendly and this place looked like it had a number of options. They sadly had run out of vegetarian nuggets by the time we arrived but my friend got their hummus appetizer, falafel, & vegetarian (potato) samosa. I got their gyro & a meat samosa. All were really good, especially for the price ($7.50 for mine). I recommend asking for their various sauces. I liked the green sauce the best since it had some kick.Overall, had a great experience here. Staff were super friendly & even asked how everything was after we'd been eating for awhile. This place has a neighborhood-favorite kind of feel where the locals go after work or with their families. So join the locals and check this place out especially if you're looking for an affordable but satisfying meal!

We ordered the Goat Sport + Fries. It was perfect. My daughter stopped half way through and asked for a box because she wanted to eat it again tomorrow!PS - this place is Halal!

A relatively unassuming spot on the corner of Chicago and Franklin, Golden Fingers has become my neighborhood go to. They offer African, Mediterranean, Indian, and fried American foods that are all cooked to order. After trying a few things, the chicken suqqar has become my absolute go to.Perfectly seasoned chicken, yellow rice, grilled peppers, grilled onions, then a small salad on side with lime wedges. I get mine spicy, so they include house made green hot sauce (won't kill you and has quite a bit of flavor). I prefer to mix all of mine together, as the tomatoes and cucumbers from the salad actually compliment the dish quite well. Like most African spots, the meal is served with a banana as well. It's a steal for around $7 at lunch and $10 at dinner.Service is awesome, but depending on how busy it is, it may take a little time. I'd DEFINITELY recommend calling in before hand. Food is all made fresh to order and there's no shortage of hand sanitizer for anyone who needs it. Staff follows all COVID protocols and once they get to know your face, become quite inviting. You are able to dine in now with proper distancing, but it is still counter service.Does Golden Fingers offer five star ambiance? No. It's a corner, neighborhood spot. However, it does give you five star quality food for the price you pay and five star service!

I am so so impressed by the portions and quality for price at Golden Fingers! I ordered the Shawarma feast which came in a full sized aluminum server tray and filled to the top with yummy saffron rice, tender meats, and came with two drinks, hummus, and pita! Wow o wow. The quality for the cost is amazing. I also got the gyro fries which were extremely cheesy and also a good portion but not super flavorful. Think philly cheese fries :) the food was extremely freshly made and I ordered for pick up and only had to wait ~5 minutes for the food to finish up. The place itself isn't very well decorated, but I still dig the club lights on the ceiling. Definitely could use some work on keeping the tables and floor cleaned which is why I'm giving it 4 stars, but the food itself is reason enough for me to come back!

Best Sambusas in town! Great service!Owner are so nice. If you are ordering for a party I recommend to call a day in advance to place your order.

My favorite is the Gyro with rice. It's delicious and savory full of flavor. Its a big plate so two people can share

Went in to get a Gyro and Fries combo. It was easy order for take out. I'm a no salt fry person, but forgot to request no salt. Luckily the cook only used a little. Sandwich was a good size, but I didn't open it until I got home and no cucumber sauce. Next time I will request it on the side. I had some ranch dressing so that worked. Fries were good and crunchy. I just got a can soda since it was a combo. I would try different foods here. The area is always sketchy, but the place looked clean.

Made 2 orders that I never received and they also took my money and didn't refund it.
