Fresh food and even better service! Large portions Owner was so sweet and attentive. I will certainly be back. Great place for a halal family style meal. read more

If I could leave a no star review I would. Food was awful. Ordered a steak shawarma wrap, veggie wrap and fries, pretty standard. Wraps were in a flour tortilla (wtf is Mediterranean about a flour tortilla), flavors were bland and the sandwiches were soggy and luke warm, couldn't finish any of it. Gross. Absolute trash, don't waste your money. read more

Great service, clean place, good food. The falafel is not dry! Good music too. Bathrooms were ok but not great Has a second floor with seating. Parking easy read more

Amazing Chicken Shawarma, Amazing Hummus, great salads, they seem to do everything right. If you like Mediterranean you can't go wrong with this spot. read more

Crave Kabob - Chicken Shwarma plate - Mediterranean Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I know prices are high but damn, this place is highway robbery. I got a steak crave bowl. There was a $5 uncharge for the steak, making my total close to $18. When I got my bowl, there were FOUR bite size steak pieces. That's it. Never again. What a rip off. read more

Really good food. The shawafel is a novel and delicious take on a sandwich. It would be helpful in their bowls to have recommendations for pairings. read more

Unfortunately this review is based on service only as my meal was unavailable when I got there. I placed a TooGoodToGo order and upon arriving there on time they told me they had thrown out all the food. The people working wouldn't come to the door to talk or apologize for the error. I'm more than happy to update this when I try the food. read more

Good selection, pretty good taste, but the value isn't there. Paid about $8 for a chicken shawarma bowl. The chicken was pretty good, and you get a choice of two salads, two sauces, and two toppings with it. This may seem like a lot, but it really left me pretty hungry. I would expect a pita to come with something like this. Maybe I ordered the wrong thing, but it didn't seem like this place was very worth your money. They do have a nice, clean location, though! I would be willing to give it a second chance. read more

Best meddrererian food around, hands down. Food is freshly made. Sauces have the right spices. Spicy hummus is to die for. The dishes are huge (learned to buy one to share otherwise I'd have a hard time finishing the plate). Did I mention they have the fun soda machine that let's you mix all the weird sodas? They are quite busy and popular. There are multiple delivery vehicles pulling up whenever I'm there to eat. I'm really happy that they have moved into this neck of the woods and hope they stay for a long time. read more

I wanted to say that I just discovered this place and I absolutely love their chicken bowls. It is really good. I am writing this and also placing a new order right now because I am always craving it. The girl at the cashier is always so nice too and the place is cool to just sit and eat there. I usually only do takeout. read more

The Good: I ordered the kabob platter, all meat included was well-seasoned and very tasty, as was the spicy hummus ..yummm The Ugly: kabob plate was supposed to come with grilled veggies aka a "sliced grilled onion" (blank stare), side salad was bland shredded lettuce (blank stare), side chickpea salad contained a half cup of undercooked chickpeas with parsley, no seasoning (blank stare) and the lentil "soup" was ALL broth ..did I say I needed baby food?? ..another blank stare read more

Back in town and ordered off Uber eats. Just as delicious as I remember it being. I ended up ordering way too much food and eating the majority of it. Chicken schwarma with the normal amount of meat is still a good portion and be sure to get the biryani rice. I had a large side of tzatziki sauce on the side which was awesome and then regular hummus with bread. (Forgot to order extra bread, always get extra bread) the pita is thick, fluffy, and fresh. Also got a side of falafel, 6 would have been fine, though I ordered 12. Should get the garlic sauce with that next time. Had a couple of bites of the gyro meat and it is fantastic, though the chicken is still my favorite. The baklava is also tasty and worth ordering. Next time will order more hummus and bread! read more

You know a restaurant is good when you start thinking of excuses to keep eating there.... My husband and I have been aching for some good Middle Eastern food since we moved in this area. Crave definitely delivers! We have tried their chicken kabob and lamb kabob entrees. Both times I had the mixed rice. I love that they add slivered almonds (it's a great savory touch). Don't expect quick food. This isn't a Chipotle or Blaze type of restaurant. For example when we ordered the lamb kabob we were warned that it would take at least 20 minutes for them to prepare the lamb. But it was so worth it. I haven't had such well-seasoned, juicy chicken kabobs anywhere else. Their lamb kabobs didn't disappoint either. I can't wait to go back and try everything on their menu! read more

Hell no I would never recommend this establishment to a dog! This place is down the street from the communications center where I work so it's a short distance. This is the second time they have sold me cold old looking food. I now have a stomachache I truly believe this was intentional because it's been almost a year since I've been there. I say Lincoln Park or Greek town is a better option. read more

We loved the Lentil Soup, Pita Crackers, and the Pita Bread! My boyfriend also loved his Lamb Kebab Bowl! Ingredients were all incredibly fresh and their homemade hummus and babaganoush is delicious! I didn't love the steak meat but will have to try their chicken shawarma next time. read more

Stopped here before a concert at the United Center two months ago, and I am still thinking about how the fantastic chicken shawarma bowl was. I loved having so many choices of toppings to add to the bowl. It was an excellent meal, well priced, and everything tasted fresh and delicious. The restaurant was clean, and the cashier was incredibly patient and kind as she described menu options to what seemed like almost every customer who was dining that evening. I can't wait to return! My only wish is that this restaurant would have a location on the south side of Indianapolis. read more

Great food, great service, great ambiance (even though the music is a little loud) We ordered the Mixed Grill Entree and the Gyro Plate. Both were awesome. The steak and chicken was flavorful and tender. The biryani rice is bomb. The lanb was perfectly tender and flovorful as well. The Lemon & Mint smoothie was the cherry on top. read more

Delicious food with giant portions so plenty for leftovers. The meats and the vege dishes are all good.

Very good place for Mediterranean food! Excellent service and vibes overall! The steak kabob was sooo good! Salute to the owner of this place read more

Great food. Very fresh. 5 stars for the falafel as they were so crispy on the outside and flaky on the inside and not Dowly. Shawarma chicken and beef are tasty. Lost a point so 4 stars due to having lettuce which is not authentic for shawarma and about of lettuce too much and needed little mire garlic sauce in the chicken sandwich. All items very good. Tabbouli and lentil soup perfect. Service prompt and very professional and welcoming. Good spacing inside. We will add it to our hi list when we visit Chicago!!! read more

Disappointed! Picked up a salad today and the lettuce is bad. Not sure how it's even legal to serve bad lettuce this bad. My first experience and I will never go back. read more

As a vet I've eaten in many countries... Spent a lot of time in Northern Africa (middle east)... I had the Lamb Kabob platter...Lamb was tender and well seasoned... Only drawback I could think of is that there aren't any beverages that are native to the region... this place WOW... Owners we're very interactive with me... I WILL BE BACK (By the way I left FULL and I'm a big eater) read more

Good kebab bowls with decent selections for salads and sauces. Occasionally Greek fries are soggy with very little cheese.

Delivery = 2 out of 10...cold food, missing items and only delivered it half way to my unit. Decided to give you a 2 and not a 1 because you are still out during COVID. Thanks, but you'll find your tip was also reduced in half for your half effort. Food = 1 out of 10...cold, threw one dish away completely and they didn't include the falafal for two dishes which were add-ons and extra charge. Overall, with so many great Mediterranean food options in the city, you just guaranteed we'll never spend $65 for a cold piece of garbage service and food that may or may not show up at our door again. read more

Pretty disappointed in the chickem schwarma plate. It only came with half the items they claimed it would: the chicken and the rice. The grilles vegetables and both sauces were missing. Someone threw some raw onion and a single slice of tomato on top of the dish, but that doesnt substitute for the missing items. Disappointed. Eating schwarma without any sauce is not exactly my favorite. Also didnt help that the chicken was dry and gristled. Ive never had schwarma like this. read more

Crave Kabob - Mediterranean Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Worst Mediterranean food I've ever had. Hummus was watery and flavorless, sauces were sour and tasted old, and meat was overcooked. There are 100% better and fresher options .. wish I could get my money back read more

Amazing friend, reasonably priced! Love it here. We found if on google maps. Very understated place!

A modern shawarma-kabob joint. I had the chicken shawarma entree with choice of salad (greek) and spread (baba ghanoush); small falafel (6 pieces). The chicken shawarma on its own was a bit bland but did come with 2 choices of dipping sauces. Falafel was good. There is more seating hidden upstairs. read more

Not good. Wasn't fresh. Did not enjoy. Writing this as a reminder to myself not to try again.

I have been here several times and loved it each time. If there is a quick or more regular pick up spot this is my go to. I enjoyed it to the point where I got this catered for a work lunch that was downtown even though this restaurant isn't located there. Everyone in the office was talking about it and it made our break room at work smelled so good. I have gotten the steak and chicken kabob, chicken shawarma, gyros, rice, and pita. All the sauces are so flavorful and yummy. I don't think you can go wrong. The prices are reasonable and the service is friendly quick! read more

Super extremely long wait time. Without any kind of communication. don't recommend coming here unless u got more than one hour to wait for food. read more

went in today to grab a pick up order. the lady was nice and simply asked me to repeat the name of the order so I did. bigger guy came out of nowhere started cussing calling me names and started an altercation in the middle of the store for absolutely no reason. absolutely do not go here--I know I will never be back read more

Definitely the best Mediterranean in the westloop. Chicago has a lot of different spots but this one has to be top 5 for sure. The customer service it's always on point. And the ambiance is beautiful it's really nice inside. Very comfortable to eat inside. read more

Only reviewing the food, as I've never been to the actual location (delivery only). Delicious and consistent Mediterranean food at a great value. I've ordered delivery from them a few times and was satisfied each time. The tabbouleh, hummus an falafel are delicious sides that I typically get with their mixed combination plate. The slightly charred meats and onions make for an exquisite meal. read more
