In the category of Middle-Eastern/Medditerranean Food, this restaurant rates 5 Stars. Informal setting belies the best such food I've eaten at many such places in Chicagoland. You start with the usual complimentary appetizer plate of small green olives and slices of pickled vegetables. For appetizers, we had delicious Falafel ($2.95 for 6 pieces); and, a small but delectable bowl of fresh Lentil soup with a squeeze of lemon (also $2.95). For entrees, we had the Chicken Shawerma plate, and the Kefka Kabob (which was the best I've eaten), and both plates were piled high with Basmati Rice and a roasted tomato, accompanied by a bowl full of toasted Pita. (our entrees were $9.95/each). Best of of all, it's BYO (and no corkage)! Sooo much too eat, we only ate half of our entree plates and had enough for left-overs dinner next night. How can you beat that?\r
