Reviews for Yaba’s Food & Middle Eastern Grill in Chicago, IL

I love this place. We're in the neighborhood and we regularly go here for our falafel/hummus fix. If you bring containers... they'll use them instead of giving you styrofoam. The owner is friendly and rightfully proud of his product! Read more

Absolutely the best gyro plate I?ve ever had. Everything was delicious, the portions were WAY bigger than I thought (especially... the fries) and the hummus was fantastic! I usually hate everything because I?m a jerk but this was amazing! Read more

really fantastic food, friendly atmosphere. the falafel was just made, dolma was perfect, salad fresh and they gave baklava on... the house! I?m not a big baba ghanoush fan but they happily substituted it for extra hummus in the veggie plate. will be comingback for sure!! Read more

One of those unassuming gems that make you happy you found it. Ordered the Yaba combo plate and a 6 piece falafel to try as much... as possible. Loved it all, all the meat was very flavorful and well cooked. I often find falafel to be somewhat dry but this wasnot at all. It was my favorite thing by far. Super fresh and hot! Perfect neighborhood takeout place!! Pretty cheap for theportion size, the entree and app split between 2 people! Read more

100000% recommended!!! Guys, the food was delicious and the portion was super big I was thinking about how to eat all the order... without doing a waste. The brother (he is orginally Palestinian) in the cashier offered free drink in hot weather, which showedhow muslim people think about people's health not profit... Big thank you and may Allah bless you and your business.... Read more
