Outrageously great food at great prices! The staff are friendly and helpful. Location is easy to find. I had the spicy double burger with gyro meat and my mind was blown. Spicy, zesty, charred and amazing. The wife and I will definitely be back!

They have the best halal burgers in all of Chicago land. The burgers might be pricy, but in my opinion worth it. Try the double stack Chipotle burger with spicy gyros topping.

I tried the Double Burger with spicy Gyro, jalapenos and caramelizes onions - and it was GOOD. I definitely recommend it. The place however is very small - it has 1 table and 3 additional bar stools - and that is it. It is pretty much for take out only. They claim the meat is freshly grounded and never frozen. And it tasted very delicious and fresh. It is also Halal.

We were looking for a good halal burger place and thank god we found this place! Their burgers are just amazing!!! I tried their chicken shawarma too and that was great as well, I would highly recommend this place to any burger lover who is looking for some real good beef burgers. Try it and you won’t regret it! Only issue is the space, you can still sit and eat there but it’s not for a big group. People who are running this place are real nice too, it’s always good when you see a smiling face!

First time I went here, a guy in line recommended the double cheeseburger and it’s the best burger I’ve ever had. The sauce is amazing and I wish I knew the recipe. I’ve yet to try the gyro meat on the burger but my friend had it and said it’s amazing and that they give you plenty.

Absolutely blown away by the triple patty burger—juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. Every bite was stacked with deliciousness, and the quality was top-tier. To top it off, they threw in fries for free, which were crispy and perfectly seasoned. Amazing food and even better hospitality. I’ll definitely be coming back!

It's a little bit strange that the best thing I got from here is the burger but that's the case. Get the burger and add spicy gyro meat to it. It was insane how good it tasted. Just wish the bun had more structure. The rice from chicken tawa and combo plate was a little dry but I don't even care. That's how much that burger hit the spot.

Okay this is a family run place and they aren't hurting for business because the food ABSOLUTELY SLAPS. I crave this place. It is by far my favorite Mediterranean place in the area. It is just a little family that runs it, it is a TO GO place, it is too small and too hot inside to eat. Also, it is BUSY because like I said, the food slaps. We always get the chicken shawarma platter and falafel. If you want the best experience, call in your order. They are so busy and they are just a small crew though, so they might not answer. If that happens, then you might just end up having to wait 20-30 minutes for your order. Personally I just keep calling until they pick up. I think you can order online sometimes but they are so busy that sometimes they shut that off too. The fact that they only need to be open a few nights a week and are absolutely jammed when they are open really speaks for itself. I almost don't want to say how good they are because I don't want everyone to know but I don't think the negative reviewers are right on this.
