    Great quality food at a reasonable price point !! Falafel and avocado hummus were my faves. The chef gave us free baklava because it was our first time, she was so cute you have to go!!

    Falafel plate
    stephanie b.

    The food here is fantastic! The ingredients are always fresh, and the space is clean. Meals are made to order, so you can expect them to be served hot. I have been ordering from this place for the past 6-7 years, and it has consistently been a great neighborhood spot.

    I like their food and customers service, friendly staff. Delicious hummus and grilled meat . Highly recommend for vegetarians

    Chicken Shawarma Wrap
    Will J.

    Been here twice now and have really enjoyed the food/service both times. I bought a shawarma wrap for 8$, it isn't a gigantic wrap by any means but it is firmly packed with tons of delicious ingredients/kept me surprisingly full after finishing. The chicken is perfectly marinated, the lettuce/cucumber salad is fresh, the pickles give a great bite, and the hummus and tahini sauce top off a perfectly made wrap. I'd highly recommend getting the garlic sauce and hot sauce as well on the side. I also bought a chicken kabob plate that was not only visually appeasing but tasted just as good as well. Great portion sizes and tons of food for 15$. If you're a shawarma fan or in the area, definitely stop by! The service at the front has been great both times as well :)

    Mixed plate & chicken kebab
    Chase S.

    Ordered the Chicken Kebab plate, the Mixed Combo plate, and a Lentil Soup. Each plate comes with a small cup of humus, 1 falafel, a side salad, and pita. I not only love this place because it's close to my house, but because the ingredients they use are usually super fresh and of high quality. Ill start off with the Lentil soup. Holy smokes. Thick, hot, grainey, and has a slight undertone of almost a worcestershire flavor. so delicious, i was very pleased. Falafel-  very rich and flavorful Pita - sooooo tasty and fresh. I am a bread lover and this pita gets my approval. Hot sauce is also top notch. Not too spicy but packed with flavor. Chicken kebab - thick pieces of chicken breast roasted over an open flame, the marinade is delicious and not too spicy, and it comes with roasted veggies -  all served over a bed of yellow rice. Pretty straightforward dish and the chef nailed it. The mixed plate - 3 different meats included: Chicken kebab, kefta kebab, and steak kebab. It comes with more food than any of the other plates on the menu (ive had them all). Roasted veggies are also included with this plate, also served over a bed of yellow rice. The steak kebab is nice big pieces of beef, wouldnt say theyre exactly juicy, but the beef is high quality and the flavor is as expected for another straightforward menu item. I was a bit hungup on the kefta kebab. The ground meat they used was not seasoned enough in my opinion. It was slightly bland but i mean very slightly. No regrets ordering, but I have had better kefta elsewhere. Overall I highly recommend this place. Quick easy and so delish. One of my go-to's.

    I didn't have much time to cook this week and Hummus Grill is amazing for weekly staples. Look how gorgeous the dips are presented. I grabbed a couple salads and sides of shawarma meat to use in wraps at home, and some grilled veggies too. Everything is packaged to perfection. Incredible neighborhood spot!

We got the smoky garlic hummus, whipped feta, brussel sprouts, and lemon meringue bar for dessert, and honestly everything was amazing. The harissa honey on the brussel sprouts was so good, and the lemon meringue bar with the citrus crema and graham cracker crust was the perfect sweet item to round out the meal. They bring complementary pita with your hummus and dips and the bread with za'atar itself was delicious. They recommend 2-3 share plates per person, but we ordered 3 plus dessert for two people and still had leftovers. So I'd say it definitely depends on how hungry you are! We went for lunch/brunch and were pretty much the first people there, so service was super fast. Our server was lovely and incredibly attentive with topping off water and clearing plates. Definitely would come back to try some of their larger plate options.

The crispy potatoes also hit the spot, especially due to the scallion cream it came with. Not to be outdone was the house pita bread, which was wonderfully spiced. I also appreciated the mocktail options offered as well! Service was excellent, ambiance was beautiful, and food was tasty. Overall would recommend this place to anyone looking for a gorgeous and yummy brunch location in the West Loop!

Dresscode: Smart Casual / Casual Noise Level: Medium (it gets buzzy after 5:30pm) Thursday night Happy Hour was lively, so it took about 10-15 minutes for someone to come around, but service was attentive once we got going. The food is where Ēma really shines. From the Happy Hour menu, the Charred Eggplant Hummus and Crispy Potatoes were generously portioned and great for sharing. On the main menu, the Indian-Mediterranean fusion Bhel Hummus was a party for my taste buds, while the Hot Honey Halloumi and Chicken Kefta rounded out the table nicely. The halloumi is more of a side than a main, but that sweet-and-salty hot honey combo was chef's kiss. For our finisher, the Chocolate Torte knocked us out. Decadent, delicious and chocolate with lots of depth. Overall, Ēma is an excellent spot to order a bunch of dishes for the table and get an elevated meal without feeling stuffy, and delicious without taking itself too seriously. DO's: - Make a reservation ahead, especially for happy hour 4-6pm - Treat apps like small plates, order 2-3 to sample - Entertain their wine list, they have a lot! - Bring vegetarians here, there are plenty of options DON'Ts: - Dismiss the desert menu. It's fantastic and shareable! - Forget to ask for extra pita with the hummus! - Miss out on the LettuceEats loyalty points (check-in with your server before paying your check)

Sat at the bar and the bartender wasn't in the best mood. Minus one star for the combination of the large pieces of cabbage core and sat at the bar for about 15 minutes - no one was there to serve us.

I called them because I wasn't sure if the online version would be too slow. We were a group of three that came in Saturday night at 7 pm. It was moderately busy. The staff were all welcoming with smiles on their faces and attentiveness. Prices were fair for the amount of food you receive. Food portions are colossal so I would recommend one appetizer and one entree if you are a couple. They give you a complimentary dish. We ordered arayes with meat, meat toshka, mixed grill with baba ghanouj, fillet of basa fried, and mint lemonade. They also offer you fresh Arabic coffee before you leave. This is about a 4.5-5. -arayes with meat 4 - this was not bad. It's like a tamer version of the meat toshka. -meat toshka 5 - I prefer this over the arayes because they add the Syrian cheese. This one was bursting with flavor the moment you took a bite out of it. The minced beef and lamb just melt in the mouth. -mixed grill 5 - this came with 3 big skewers (shish kabab, kufta kabab, and chicken tawook. It also has tomatoes and onions to help cut down the meat when digesting. There are two heaping portions of biryani and saffron rice and baba ghanouj. The baba ghanouj was creamy and flavorful. It goes well with the pita bread. The meats were cooked medium well unless you want something. I think next time I'll ask for the shish kababs to be cooked medium rare or medium for a more juicy taste. The chicken tawook and kufta were both succulent. -fillet of basa fried 5 - the two pieces of basa fillet were astronomical. It also comes with two different kinds of rice. The fish was flaky, moist, and seasoned. Make sure you add the lemon and eat it with the sauce. -mint lemonade 5 - this was very refreshing after eating a heavy meal.

Come in a group so you can sample many things; I assure you it'll all be good. Loved the calamari and the meze plate on this last visit. Grilled haloumi and shrimp were great previously.
