I ordered for pickup from this restaurant on a Saturday afternoon. I got a mixed grill as well as a large family meal. In terms of having the food prepared on time and packed they did a great job I spoke with a man on the phone to place an order, who I felt was not very friendly, which made me hesitant to want to ask questions and I didn't realize my mixed grill would not come with rice, the online menu doesn't really say what all is included or not. The restaurant is in a small strip mall it seemed pretty clean and had seating and there was parking out front. The meat was great, the salad was good too and hummus was nice. If I wasn't uncomfortable placing orders I'd likely go more. Perhaps they should look into more automation so they don't have to deal with people read more

Nay is a hole in the wall, Afghani and Iraqi spot with a fantastic, chill vibe and good service. The meats were all very flavorful and juicy along with perfectly cooked rice and rich hummus. I can see why it was so packed for lunch and left nothing to be desired read more

The food here was amazing. Great portions and lots of flavor to their food. The service was really great, I wasn't sure what to get and I got a great recommendation by the employee at the register. Place looks like a hole in the wall from the outside but nice ambiance once you make it inside. I would definitely come back again. read more

Nay Restaurant - Beef Shawarma Plate. - Mediterranean Near Me - Glendale Heights, Illinois

As others have stated, this is a hole in the wall restaurant in a strip mall. Very unassuming but the food is delicious. I have been eating at Pota Inn A LOT so the flavors were a nice change. What stood out to me was their fresh baked bread with garlic sauce since it's light and crispy while warm but not sure if it'd stay well the next day. I got the chicken tawook combo plate. The chicken was juicy and flavorful but the pieces are small. The falafel was crispy from the outside but it needed a little more kick to it. The only reason for knocking a start off is value. For the location and ambience etc, the food is not cheap when compared to Pita Inn which offers amazing value along with taste. read more

Nay Restaurant - Chicken Shish Tawook - Mediterranean Near Me - Glendale Heights, Illinois

Stepping into Nay Restaurant feels like you've found one of those community staples--humble on the outside, packed with flavor on the inside. I ordered the Nay Combo One, and wow, the bread alone deserves its own fan base--soft, warm, perfectly baked, and the kind that makes you pause mid-conversation just to savor it. The beef had a slight lamb aroma--not overpowering, but noticeable--and still managed to be flavorful and satisfying. The plate was generous, from the falafel to the rice and hummus, making it a well-balanced meal. Bonus: they throw in a free drink with your order. I'd recommend going with the mango--it's refreshing and complements the food well. I tried the tropical one, and it was just okay in comparison. The vibe here is definitely for a friends-and-family gathering--lively, welcoming, and buzzing with regulars. It's not what I'd call a "date night" spot, but if you're rolling deep or want to introduce someone to some seriously good bread and a full plate, this is it. It's easy to see why this place is well known--solid food, friendly service, and great value. If you haven't been yet, you'll want to pull up hungry. read more

Hole in the wall Middle Eastern spot in a very small strip mall with minimal parking. Food was pretty delicious. Wife and I and split a mixed meat plate with a small baba ganoush. Plate came with a side of assorted sliced veggies, hummus, roasted tomato, and a large piece of naan. Really enjoyed the garlic sauce and hot sauce they serve on the side as well. Service is pretty minimal. Order up at the counter take a number for you order and they bring it out for you or can specify togo. Price point I thought was a tad high for the portion, but given the rising costs of everything maybe it is what it is. Maybe next time just order my own plate =P That's all I got on this one. 'Til next time, cheers! read more

Great food and generous portions - service is wonderful but not a place to sit down and eat - few tables.

Food was good, and friendly service. Ambience was not so good. It's a small place, their Dubai chocolate was really expensive! Food prices reasonable. read more

Excellent food! First time here recommended to us and did not disappoint. Fresh, lots of food and filling!

A local gem, best Mediterranean in the area. Good service, excellent food, fair prices. You can't really go wrong though my favorites individual items are the chicken Tawook and beef shawarma. Nay combo 1 is my go to order, portions are huge and turn into leftovers for the next day. Do not miss the bread, order it if it doesn't come with the meal, it's only $1.25. It is huge, fresh baked iraqi flatbread the really ties the meal together. read more

Best Iraqi kabab! This place is clean, friendly, & has many options to satisfy your craving!

Way better than naf naf and the meat quality is so high here. Quality- love how simple the dishes are yet the meat is so well cooked and seasoned. It's peppery. The ban is crispy and hummus is good too. Quantity- you get quite a bit for the price. Atmosphere- I like the small cozy feel of the restaurant. It is quiet and not crowded. Service- very fast. read more

If you are looking for hole in the wall Mediterranean place then Nay it is. This is the best Mediterranean food in the suburbs. The food is just delicious here. You can't go wrong with pretty much anything on the menu. I love the Nay Veggies and Falafel Wrap. My husband just loves the mix grill platter. Service is good and food tastes always fresh. The ambience is just ok, they got 6-7 seating tables, and the restaurant is clean. There is a parking in front of the restaurant. read more

Authentic Middle Eastern almost as much as it could be and good price for a combo. It was a good thing we found out about this place because it wound up being a lot better than expected. Nay is a family owned business in Glendale Heights. Even thigh it's kind of small it still has a good amount of dining area. There's tons of good stuff for vegetarians. Has a lot of choose from. It has all the typical Middle Eastern favorites. There's falafel, shawarma, tabbouli, and all that. Along with the handheld menus are large pictures on the wall showing what comes in combos. That was enough to make us hungry for that. Both of us got a Veggie Combo. It's about $11 for a lot. This comes with baba ghnnouch, bread, falafel, hummus, and tabbouli. Falafel were crispy without being burnt. These were good when combining the stuff in the pita kind of like a sandwich. It appears some other salad was in place of the tabbouli but it was good anyway. This was quite a good price for all they have in it. Big portions but most things aren't expensive. It has good money saving lunch combos so get these if you're on a budget and hungry. There's plenty of tasty vegetarian choices and there's a whole combo that has tons of stuff. read more

Best middle eastern food I've had in Chicagoland hands down. Good service and atmosphere.

Food was very tasty and I took it to go. Beef kabob. Service top notch. Inside is clean and relaxing. Go go go, the price is right.

The food here is very tasty. You could smell the flavors when you walk in. I got the chicken shish kabob kids meal with rice. It was so yummy! The chicken was moist and flavorful. I decided to get a side of fries. The arrived hot and fresh. My boyfriend got the chicken shawarma sandwich, and he thought it was only ok. Didn't like the bread too much. We will be back to try other menu selections. read more

I get the Chicken Shawarma sandwich at least twice a month. Absolutely amazing, clean, speaks great English, can explain items to you cause I don't know all this food. Also had the combo 2 platter. Unreal! Perfect falafels. Also it's nice and cold in there, so get out of the heat and stop by. read more

This place is awesome. The kabobs, rice, bread is fantastic. I do not like the Iraqi style of falafel (just mashed chickpeas) as opposed to the Palestinian style (chickpeas, parsley and olive oil), but it's ok. The ambiance is typical for the Arab joints around here: loud Arab music and kinda cramped. The staff is hit or miss, not the friendliest people around but when they are busy they can seem annoyed. Give it a try, you won't regret it. read more

So you would go here for the food, not the interior. It's stark but clean. The food, however, was excellent. The kabobs in several forms were great - get the mixed plate. The shawarma was good too. And the pull-flat bread was great with the dishes. I will return when I am in the area. read more

Whenever my husband and I have a taste for Middle Eastern takeout we order from Nays. The food is so delicious and fresh and I especially appreciate that I can adjust the spice to my taste. Other places I have tried were too spicy that I could not taste the flavor of the meat. This place is so good, consistent and did I mention the Naan is so warm and fresh read more

Nay Restaurant - Nay grill Shish Kabob Meal with a side of rice - Mediterranean Near Me - Glendale Heights, Illinois

Tried this place for the first time due to great reviews and we were not disappointed. Food tasted great. Good portions as well. Called in to place the order for a pickup and the order was taken well, no confusion and he repeated the order back to me to make sure. Very pleasant. Our soda was missing and when I called to get a refund on the missing soda he was very apologetic and quickly refunded the money for the sodas. We will definitely be back again. read more

No vegan food, and no desire to even try to accommodate a vegan. Just a hard "No we don't offer vegan food." I was disappointed since most middle eastern restaurants usually have a few dishes that are vegan-friendly. Not this place. read more

Yumm!! You must try.... THE BREAD!! THE KABOBS!! THE BREAD!! THE FALAFEL!! THE BREAD!! THE WRAPS!! Everything is fantastic and the price is more than reasonable. I've eaten there and also ordered catering... it was all wonderful but eating there is just out of this world!! Highly recommend... ohh and did I mention the bread?!? So damn good!! read more

Did a carry out of mixed grill. First time trying. Not big for dine in altho there were a few families seated for dining. Obviously well know by the Mediterranean community which I observed as I waited for my meal. Food was decent but I'd rather visit a Mediterranean place closer to home.Would I make a trip in the future? Maybe not however if in the area I'd try dining in instead. Small parking lot noted. read more

My wife and I were looking for a place to take our daughter and her friends out for lunch when we visited her at college. Because we love middle eastern food, Nay Restaurant sounded like a good option. It turned out to be a fantastic choice. First, this small restaurant has very interesting and engaging decor and music. It helped you really enter into the dining experience. The food was great. We had the Combo 1 and 2. These provided a great sampling of meat dishes. The best part was the Iraqi bread, which was warm and delicious. Plus, they offered us more when we devoured the first three (large) servings. If you are in Glendale Heights, IL. I recommend a stop at Nay Restaurant. Great food and a nice environment to eat. But, that bread...wow! read more

Great food combo chicken is enough for two. Can here for Saturday lunch a great choice

Small location and does not seem like much. The Lentil Soup, with Nay Grill Kaboobs are amazing dishes. The kaboobs cooked perfectly and not burned and taste really good with humus and the bread provided. One of the many hidden gems in Chicago Suburb area. read more
