    10/02/25 - I love Pita Pita Mediterranean Grill (PPMG) This is the first time I have been at this location in Des Plaines but not the first time @ a PPMG. I have eaten at other locations like Palatine (first time), Rolling Meadows, Lombard & now at this location in Des Plaines. Once again PPMG didn't disappoint. The food & the service were excellent as I have come to expect @ PPMG regardless of where you get your meal. I go to lunch w/my buddy about once every other week. We take turns & rotate every other time. For him it was his first time @ a PPMG. Both my buddy & I I ordered the mixed meat combination which comes w/a variety of meats. This combination comes w/beef shawarma, beef kifta sausage, piece of grilled beef, chicken shawarma, chicken kifta & grilled chicken, some yellow rice & salad all excellently seasoned. All of this comes for $19.00/person. He also ordered a cup of lentil soup. The portion sizes are generous & more than I can eat wo/gorging myself. (I had leftovers) All of this delicious goodness for $19.00/combo. This meal was made more affordable by a Groupon that I purchased. The deal was $40 worth of food for $25. Even wo/the Groupon this is an excellent value & an excellent meal. I continue to go to Pita Pita Mediterranean Grill or PPMG because the food quality & portion sizes have always been an awesome deal I love Mediterranean food & especially love PPMG

    Chicken Shawarma Bowl

    5 stars for Pita Pita Des Plaines. I've been to multiple Pita Pita locations, and have to say this is one of the nicest ones that I've seen. The restaurant is pretty big with plenty of dine in seating, and the workers were very friendly. The food is delicious - we tried the falafel plate and the chicken schwarma bowl - very big portions! I definitely recommend the Des Plaines location - it's very new and remodeled.

    Great place to eat. Everything is worth it. Clean restaurant and very accommodating. Will be back for sure.

    Beef shawarma bowl
    Mark Y.

    I walked into a large, clean, and inviting store, where I was immediately greeted by a friendly, smiling face. I ordered a beef shawarma bowl for $14. That's not bad for all of the fresh flavor they packed into it. Hummus, rice, salad, and beef are a great combination. I couldn't even eat half of it, there was so much. Bonus: they tossed in a free baklava. Sadly, I've been on a diet and had to pass it on to my better half. She said it was as delicious as it looked.

    Chicken Tawook

    I'm disappointed with this establishment because their protein portions are misleading. The place is clean, the staff is polite, and the food tastes good, but when you charge $2.40 for "extra protein" and claim it's 2 oz, customers should actually get that amount. My last order of extra chicken shawarma was only about 1 3/8 oz. And don't even get me started on chicken tawook. The pieces are so small and thin they barely add up to anything. I paid $7.20 (plus tax) for extra meat and it came out to just over 2oz combined. One of the pieces was .5oz!! Accuracy and honesty matter. If you charge for extra protein, make sure customers are getting what they pay for.

    Chicken Tawook Wrap Sandwich (Most Popular) Soooo good!
    Stephanie A.

    Can't believe I've only heard of this spot until today. My sister went the other day and told me about this place so I had to try it. Beautiful space - looks very clean and modern Service was great! The cashier was helpful and friendly Food was soooooo good!!! I got the chicken tawook wrap with garlic sauce on the side. Packed with flavor, great size for a wrap too. Garlic sauce was not too pungent which I love (I believe it's yogurt based) Will definitely be coming back

    What a great experience. Landed at O'Hare and was about to grab something at the airport but decided to try Yelp instead. Glad I did. Got the meat and vegetable lunch special and it was amazing. Not only that, the service was also top notch. I live in San Diego, otherwise this would be in my regular rotation. Give it a try!

    I first visited Al Bawadi Grill at their Bridgeview location, and it was an outstanding experience…read more The food was delicious, and the service was exceptional, which is why I kept coming back. I've since visited the Niles location several times. The food has always been consistently excellent, but unfortunately the service has never matched the quality of the kitchen. Today's visit was by far the worst. It took over 10 minutes for our server to come to the table to take our order. Throughout the meal, I had to repeatedly flag her down whenever we needed something. To make matters worse, she seemed to disappear halfway through dinner--I'm assuming she clocked out--because we had to get another server's attention just to receive basic assistance. The food, however, was fantastic. I ordered the Al Bawadi Seafood Mixed Grill, and it absolutely delivered. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. That's what makes this so frustrating. This restaurant serves some of the best Middle Eastern food in the area, but when you're paying premium prices, you expect service that matches the quality of the food. I still recommend the food without hesitation, but the consistently poor service at the Niles location is making it harder to justify returning.

    I cannot recommend this restaurant enough. If you are looking for delicious food in a beautiful…read moreroom with excellent service, you've come to the right place. Our server was so kind and never let us make the mistake of ordering the wrong thing. She gave us her recommendations every step of the way and every single one was perfect. What we got: Mint lemonade: 5/5. SO refreshing and delicious. Perfect sweetness and the little bit of pulp you get is great. I only wish there was more of it! Chicken arayes: 4.5/5. Crispy, cheesy, garlicky. Need I say more? Get some extra garlic on the side if you wanna take it up a notch. Fried halloumi: 4/5. These are like a soft mozzarella stick, so tasty. Definitely eat the pickles with them. Lamb chops: 4.5/5. 4 tender lamb chops seasoned beautifully. Definitely recommend the red rice over the yellow if you can handle a little bit of heat. Kanafeh: 5/5. Whoever thought that cheese, sweet syrup, phyllo, and pistachios would go together is a genius. Definitely don't leave without getting this dessert. The salt of the cheese perfectly balances out the sweetness. No notes! And get some peppermint tea to go with it too. And the portion sizes are huge! Definitely get your money's worth here. My only issue is this place is right by my job so now I'm gonna go broke getting food here all the time. But that's a problem I'd love to have!

Upon my first visit on a Thursday for lunch, the waitress Nur provided excellent service to our table. She was patient, pleasant, and provided answers to our many questions. Just loved her service with a smile and uplifting energy. My friends and I ate hard and everyone enjoyed their food. I tried the lentil soup which was wonderful and I had the mushroom guvec with rice on the side that was delicious. We were served tea as an after dinner refresher which was nice. We noticed the bakery on the way out and they had so many treats ready to be ordered and taken home. The second visit was terrible. I came for lunch on a Tuesday and it wasn't busy. The lahmacon is offered as a lunch special and I asked if I could have the cheesemacon for the special. It's the same version with just cheese and no meat. My waiter Jamal straight told me no. I found that very odd so I inquired further because they are the same price on the menu and it's without meat. The answer still didn't change. I simply had a few more questions about other menu items and Jamal seemed agitated by then. He was not even trying to be nice. I ordered two entrees. I paid full price for the cheesemacon and had a pide with kashkaval cheese. Jamal brought my food and NEVER came back to my table. I watched him provide service to all the other tables during that time. I was fine and didn't need anything, but I didn't deserve to be treated that way for being pleasantly inquisitive. I really felt bothered by this because out of all my years of eating out, I never felt that a server treat me poorly personally for being myself. I've had bad service before just because the service is bad overall and that is different. I like the food so I reluctantly returned for a third time and had breakfast. Service was standard and the food was good. My mushroom omelette was fine. The traditional french toast was solid. This review should be one star but it is four without Jamal.

The restaurant itself is very spacious and extremely clean, with plenty of room to sit and enjoy your meal without feeling crowded. The atmosphere felt relaxed and inviting, but I have to mention it was 8pm when we went. Now for the food it was absolutely delicious. The chicken kabob was incredibly juicy, tender, and full of flavor. It was perfectly grilled and seasoned just right, the kind of dish where every bite is better than the last. You could really taste how fresh everything was. My four year old loved the chicken and the rice was delicious. We also ordered the combination plate, which was fantastic. It came with a great variety of Mediterranean Dave's including the best falafel I have had, seasoned chicken, fresh rice, and all the classic sides that complement the dish so well. It's a great option if you want to try a little bit of everything, and everything on the plate was flavorful and well prepared. What really stood out to me though was the hospitality. The owner's kindness and welcoming attitude made the whole experience feel personal, not just like another quick meal out. Between the delicious food, the warm service, and the clean, comfortable space, this place really deserves the 5 stars. We will absolutely be back. Highly recommend Sultan's if you're in the area!

One day you get OK portions, and the next time you come in you get half. Recently, I moved up to a plate because the portions in the bowl seemed to have gotten smaller.

How greedy does a place have to be? I know things are getting expensive but when you shrink the portions and raise the prices, you're just begging for people to just stop spending their money there.

Even when dining in, the meats aren't always piping hot depending on how long they have been under the lamp, and even more tastiness is lost in carry-out mode. Nevertheless, for $12.95 for a generous heaping plate, no complaints really, and it was a satisfying enough dinner.
