Mr Falafel - Skokie

There's this hidden gem behind all the corporate dining places in Village Crossing. As you approach the entrance, you'll be hit with the most delicious Middle Eastern cooking aroma. Once you're inside, your senses will come to life! I'm no stranger to Middle Eastern food, so I ordered my go to dishes the combo plate and a side of French fries. And guess what? You can never go wrong when trying out new restaurants. The person who took my order was super nice and always had a smile on their face. After ordering, they asked me to take a seat, and within a few minutes, my first course arrived. I got a bowl of homemade lentil soup and a fresh pickled salad, and let me tell you, they were both amazing. Not too salty, not too bland, just the perfect amount of magic. In no time, the main course showed up a plate of rice, a falafel, and huge chunks of skewered beef and chicken. The dish was served on what I believe is the best shawarma in Niles! The portion size was worth the price, and I even had enough left for a midnight snack later on. Here's a fun fact Middle Eastern restaurants, particularly those that specialize in street food, make the best French fries. I think they use the same oil to fry the falafels, which is why these fries were an 8.5 out of 10. Trust me, that's a good score!

This place has the best Falafel in the area. I won't bother to go anywhere else anymore if this place is open. The Falafel here is always freshly cooked and very crispy on the outside. Lots of other places the Falafel often is mushy, or dry or doesn't seem fresh. Other selections such as Shawarma and Hummus are also great. Highly recommend this place!

Everything was just amazing good and fresh and tasty! I know this business for long time ago when was a small place by Bed Bath and beyond....was run by a nice old man with white hair and mustache and was like 2-3 young boys helping him...then it closed...I was so happy to see the business up again and doing so good ! I was waiting a little bit because they had orders but in that time they served us an appetizer from the house...who is doing that ? Very generous portions in meat not on rice and salads like others...you have to try that place ! Thank you guys!

It’s my first experience here and I love it. Food is delicious,and customer service is great.

Pita Inn move side. There's a new Sharma Sheriff in town.
