Excellent customer service. They are very hospitable . I felt very welcomed as if I were in their home . The decor is beautiful. I looked over by where their front lobby is and it looks like someone's living room. Everything in here is done attention to detail.. The kebab chicken I ordered was very moist and delicious and I took half of it home. They had wonderful bread, dill rice, and a tomato salad. Excellent hummus very creamy. I will definitely come back and maybe next time try some of their desserts they look fantastic. It would be fun to come with a big group share family style.

I accidentally ordered from the wrong Jarasa Kabob location. Who knew there was more than one?!…read more The team at the Skokie location quickly made my meal at no additional cost, and it's my understanding they gave the other location order away for free. What great customer service! Such wonderful staff. Great experience.

Nice staff, seems family run, but boy do they have to improve their lunch service. Honestly I think…read morethey are understaffed, I noticed a single person manning the register and making food, one auntie in the back shifting around, it took about 30 minutes for me to get my order and I was second in line the moment I walked in. I also have to say that the food is heated up for lunch. I think they cook in the morning and otherwise most of the food is just kept warm. That impacts the food quite a bit, the chicken shawarma we had was very dry and hard to eat. I like the people but honestly the business itself has some reflecting to do.

I love Pita Inn. They have great food and ambiance, and the prices are also very fair…read more However, this review is to give a shoutout to one of the staff members at their Skokie location, Latif. That man keeps that restaurant spotless. He works so hard, so fast, but does his work exquisitely. I hope owner can reward him in some way, that dude goes above and beyond. On top of that he is always pleasant, chatty and has a great relationship with many customers. 10/10 for brother Latif.

food is always amazing, and the people are very kind - especially Latif! i come back whenever i can!read more

Mediteranean food is one of favorite foods & both my sister & I had Larsa's Mediteranean bookmarked…read morefor awhile so when my sister suggested lunch. I said Larsa's? And wala here we are. Now I have eaten at a lot of Mediteranean restaurants over the years & just like every other food type there are some great place, good places & mediocre places. Larsa's definitely rates in the great range. Their food is delicious. In the past people, myself included used Pita Inn as a benchmark, but that's mainly because in the beginning there wasn't much to compare to. I have been trying different Mediteranean restaurants and Larsa's left PI in the rear view mirror. You can't even begin to compare the food at Larsa's to the former as the ingredients and flavors are far superior. Sure the cost is a little more, but there is absolutely no comparison as Larsa's food is far superior everything is made individually and not an assembly line production We started with a cup of lentil soup. I was like a starving animal savoring every bit of that soup. I should have gotten a bowl as it was delicious. Our server Nadia also brought out a regular serving of the jalapeño & cilantro hummus served w/warm thin pita bread. OMG this was like heaven. My sister mentioned that she could make a meal out just the hummus and the pita and I agree. Next we had the Fatoush Salad this has crispy pita crust, lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes, radishes, green peppers w/a dressing with olive oil, lemon & sumac. This was just ok, but I liked the crispy pita bread it added a nice crunch. We split a combo platter as the portion size is very generous. This dish comes w/chicken kabobs, beef kifta, beef shawarma, red onions, tomatoes slices & basmati long grain rice. The kifta & chicken kabobs were both very tasty, it they were a little dry. The beef shawarma was cooked & seasoned perfectly as the pieces just melted in my mouth. Every once in awhile our server Nadia came by and was very helpful in telling us about dishes we had questions about. She was super cool and friendly. There was another server that was also very helpful, but we didn't catch her name. Sometimes you go to a restaurant that everyone raves about and you think ehhh what the big deal, but this isn't the case w/Larsa's. I will definitely be back again. Thanks for the heads up Yelpies you picked a winner.

And they do a brisk takeout business if you're in a hurry. The service is cordial-to-friendly if you dine in. Their tabbouleh is a cut above everyone else's (even Pita Inn's), and while their regular hummus is very good, the cilantro jalapeño hummus is out of this world. Their falafel is also very tasty. Have heard good things about their sandwiches, as well. Was glad to see Larsa's staying open through the pandemic. Definitely worth a try!

In fact, the way it's going, it might be out of business soon. Seems like everything is falling apart... The chairs, the tables, the serving utensils . Nothing appears to be maintained.. it seems like they are also cutting corners with the buffet. I wish I could rate it higher, but it's extremely disappointing as this used to be a must go to place when visiting Chicago . When I asked the manager what happened, he just pointed to the picture of the owner on the wall, and said that he's no longer involved in the day-to-day operations. They used to have other locations that have since shut down so now the main one is in Andersonville. I'm not planning to go there ever again !
