Description

Tucked into a Chicago neighborhood, this family-run Kuwaiti/Khaleeji spot serves fresh, deeply flavored Gulf dishes prepared by a hands-on owner-chef. Regulars praise authentic, home-style fare—especially fish with red rice—and warm hospitality, calling it a hidden gem. However, inconsistent hours, unavailable menu items, occasional slow or spotty service, basic décor, and restroom issues temper the experience. Best for adventurous diners seeking authentic Gulf flavors rather than polished dining; with tighter operations it could be outstanding.

Wow! My husband and I visited on a Saturday and were uncertain about what to order. We decided on the Beef Keema and Chicken Machboos and took our meal to go. Once we got home, the food was fantastic! We really appreciated the flavors, as we enjoy Indian, Middle Eastern, Thai, and sushi cuisines. We forgot to snap a picture for Yelp, but we definitely plan to return with our two teenagers.

The food was excellent! I highly recommend trying the fish. However, I would suggest improving the decor by repainting the walls to enhance the overall ambiance of the place.

Unfortunately, this place seems to have gone out of business. I'm leaving a five-star review in honor of all the wonderful meals that my wife and I had here. Nada, you will be greatly missed. Meal type: Dinner

A beautiful restaurant with delicious food, reasonable prices, and it is cooked on time. It is preferable to call before arriving to place orders so that the food is ready. The restaurant owner himself does the cooking and preparing the table. Large dishes can be prepared for banquets and events. Service: Dine in Meal type: Lunch Price per person: $10–20
