This is my go to place for all things delicious! I love the sultani platter with both chicken…read morebreast and ground chicken kebobs. Of course the dill rice is always perfect and the green spicy sauce is a definite must as a dab that will add a perfect kick to each bite. My friends and I hit Noon at least once a month for our "vent session" and the waitstaff know us by now. They know we will need a nice glass of wine (heavy pour is needed-lol). And they bring the food in waves so we have time to sit and enjoy. I love this place on a weeknight because it is always bustling with people. Families, groups of older gents out for their weekly get together and friends like my table. Love the vibe! Please know- you can choose the dine in "north side" of the building for a nice outing with full bar service or you can choose the "south side" entrance for a casual faster service vibe geared for delivery pick up and tv to watch for a quick dine in. I find the staff to be very nice, welcoming and they will explain anything you don't know about. The menu is very detailed and lots of pictures. Last week, Jorge, our server, made sure our wine glasses were full and told me I would love the chicken fassenjan. As always- his suggestion turned out to be my new favorite!! Thanks, Jorge! You know we will be back-

Of all my trips to Albany Park, I can't believe this was my first time trying Salam. Creamy, spicy…read morehummus with light, fluffy pita...perfect. Other small plates that were excellent were the falafel (complete with sauces) and the grape leaves. Onto the mains, the kifta plate and chicken shawarma plate were top-tier...so well-spiced that no sauces are needed but they do provide them if you want to switch it up. Finally, you have to end the meal with something sweet: baklava! Special shout-out to the friendly staff, cute yet unpretentious space, and free parking lot! After only one trip, this has already become one of my favorite Middle Eastern restaurants in Chicago, which is certainly saying something given the strong competition (especially in Albany Park)!

I have sought out quality Middle Eastern food my whole life. This falafel is moist and cakey inside and crispy on the outside. The owner is also a very nice guy.

Yelp Review Very…read moredisappointed, especially since this was our first time here. We arrived around 12:00 PM, and there were only about three tables seated. Since we wanted to try several dishes, we politely asked if we could sit at a larger table. Unfortunately, our request was refused, even though there were plenty of larger tables available. As first-time customers, we expected a more welcoming experience. It was disappointing to feel like our request was inconvenient when the restaurant was barely busy. We ended up leaving with a very negative first impression.

We also ordered a lamb dish although unfortunately I am blanking on the name. Both were super good, but the mutapq was sooooo delicious. We all loved it so much and I would come here just to get mutapq. It's easily one of my new foods that I really love. I think about this meal periodically and my friends were similarly impressed. Definitely stop by and try it, you won't regret it.

Had a lot of take home to split. Everything here is great. The chicken Berlin is worth fighting over. I tried the chicken doner Iskender-so tasty!. The large, flavorful mixed grill contributed to the food overload. Lots of take home, yumm! Along the way we also had their hummos appetizer, homemade bread, yogurt (sprinkled with crushed walnuts & drizzled with olive oil). Finished with a bite of their homemade baklava with walnuts. Everybody left happy and full. Great flavors. Co-owner John hails from Aleppo, Syria and took refuge in Turkey, just across the border.

Have to be honest the price doesn't match the food you receive. I know at least 3 nearby places that give you way more for the same or less price.
