    T-bone
    David W.

    I'm gonna give an overall review of 3 stars. The food taste is a 5 star. I had the T-bone steak with saffron rice. My wife had ribeye with mashed potatoes. They brought out a complimentary mushroom soup which she said was really good. Food options is a 3. They have steaks and seafood. Some chicken. No kids menu at all. The pictures on their website are deceptive. They don't have most of the food you see on their website pictures. The place is very different. They have tv walls. All four walls. The staff was very nice and friendly, and direct. I'm not an alcohol drinker but for those who are, they do not serve alcohol. I do highly recommend going for a great steak. My recommendation to the owners is to at least get some cheap chicken tenders for kids.

    Mac & cheese

    I took my wife, son, and nephew to The Halal Steakhouse for a nice lunch. We went shortly after opening, so we were the only customers there. The parking lot is nice and big, and the interior of the steakhouse is also large. The interior is...interesting. Everything is black, including the ceiling. The walls are screens that portray an aquarium scene. Even the tabletops are big screens. The ceilings have hologram fans with tacky designs. Since it was sunny outside, the contrast of the dark interior with sunshine through the windows was odd. Interior aside, it was a very nice lunch. The food was great as was the service. It is expensive, though, so this would only be a special occasion place for me. We ordered smoked beef brisket (1/2 lb) and lamb chops. Each entree included broccoli and baked potato by default, and we got to select another side for each one. We chose mac & cheese and corn elote. The beef brisket was tasty, but a tad on the dry side. The lamb chops were juicy and delicious. The broccoli was slightly overcooked, but the baked potatoes were excellent. They included butter and sour cream on the side for the potatoes, and bbq sauce and A1 steak sauce for the meats. The mac & cheese was surprisingly good, and corn was decent. Overall a very satisfying meal.

    Beef Philly Cheesesteak

    The Halal Steakhouse First time diners. It's a wonderful to have a Halal steakhouse in the suburbs. The restaurant is covered with projectors all over the walls. They were playing sporting events, wonderful scenery, and Bollywood music. We had the smash burger, spicy chicken, zinger, burger, the beef, Philly, cheesesteak, and beef brisket platter. All the entrées were delicious. All the burgers and wraps come with a side of your choice. However, the Smashburger and beef brisket were a little blend. A little more seasoning would greatly improve the entrées. The prices are very reasonable for a Halal steakhouse. The staff are kind and polite. Highly recommended.

    My aunt and I came for her 55th birthday. Let me tell you we were not disappointed to the falling off the bone ribs to the tender brisket everything was a delight.

    Absolutely disgusting, don't ever ever go here the food taste like shit, the place inside looks like trash they try to make it look nice when it's not. They give your water bottles as your drink the service is really bad. And the floors are really dirty.

    Ask the Community - The Halal Steakhouse

    Do they have a kids menu, or items on the menu that are kid-friendly? For example, can the spicy mac n cheese be made not spicy for kids, and can the zaatar fries be substituted with regular fries?

    You will have to ask the staff. All I can tell you is the more substitutions or recommendations you ask, the more they may not be accurate. Just from my experience.

    Unlike most of the reviewers here, I never knew this place when it was new and wonderful…read more I only know it for what it is now: Middle Eastern Chipotle So I started with low expectations. I just wanted (somewhat) healthy take-out with decent flavor, that I could order ahead. I ordered a build-your-own chicken shawarma plate, with hummus and couscous. As noted in the reviews here, they give you very little chicken, so I made sure to order double chicken. It was really good. Flavorful fresh chicken, lightly seasoned couscous. The hummus didn't have much flavor but otherwise everything was yummy. Also ordered the two-pack side of falafel. Looked burnt but actually just right, tons of flavor. Everything was ready right when it was promised. Easy pickup. Tons of parking. Strong review from me but I acknowledge that I don't have the burden of remembering them from the days when they were truly special.

    I should have written this a few years ago, I was just going to let it go.. but it really bothered…read moreme that my 5 star review was here but no longer accurate. They were starting to go down just before Covid.. and then Covid just about killed them. I thought they may never open again.. so I was glad when they did.. and then I was disappointed. Those strangely sticky tables were still there but the fresh food was gone. Used to be fresh soft pitas everyday.. it was a source of pride for the restaurants. Also, they would slice the meat continuously so that it wasn't sitting around (cool automatic slicing cut it directly from the spit) Now it's a mediocre middle eastern Chipotle styled place serving warmed over food. Such a disappointment. Over 100 visits to Naf Naf and suddenly... I'm done. Been enjoying trying other places, but I miss the old Naf Naf.. the good..no.. the great one.

The salad and hummus came out within a few minutes and the food itself was actually very good. No water given at this time. Unfortunately, the service was disappointing. We waited almost an hour for our main entrée, had to ask for the water again, and the Nutella shake we ordered was never served at all. Our server was not attentive throughout the night. One more thing to watch out for -- a 15% tip was automatically added to the bill, so make sure to check before paying.

Also she didn't ask if we wanted any dessert. I found better restaurants with much better service in the area that's where I will dine at in the future. Also the waitress didn't offer my guest and I any water or asked us if we'd like any dessert.

In a strip mall, yet comfortable cushioned seating inside and plenty of it. You can get a choice of appetizers such as falafel balls, hummus, or loaded fries. Then they have a wide variety of mediterranean wraps or pita sandwiches - both meat and vegetarian. There are a few choices of salads - all made fresh. Finally, there are entrees of all types. I tried the veggie platter and got falafel, hummus, baba ghannouj, and salad along with pita bread. There's even a shawarma bowl. For drinks, there's a machine with all sorts of choices. The food was filling; in fact - we all had to take about 10-20% of our dinners home with us!

What I found was a $40 dollar value meal for $20. I've eaten at this Pita Lita Mediteranean Grill before & @ this Palatine location on multiple occasions..Pita Pita has multiple locations. Their food is very good both my wife & I ordered the mixed meat signature plate for $19 a piece. This dish comes w/a very good variety of meats like chicken & beef shawarma, grilled chicken, grilled beef & beef kifta along with/a Mediterranean salad, yellow rice & 4 - 1/2 pocket pitas perfect for making a pita sandwich. We took the 1/2 pita & put a variety of chicken, beef, salad & yellow rice & topped it w/tahini sauce & hot sauce. This made an excellent pita pocket sandwich. The mixed meat platter makes for an excellent meal w/generous sized portions & excellently seasoned meal. In fact we had left overs so I will have lunch tomorrow. The Groupon made a good meal even better because we were able to order 2 excellent meals for $20. PPMG has multiple locations all over Chicagoland. This one was in Palatine off of Dundee & 53. I've also eaten @ the Rolling Ghetto & Lombard locations. I see they also have locations in Des Plaines, Chicago (closer to me), Skokie, 200 W Randolph (no parking). Good solid Mediterranean food & made even better by Groupon

The staff was very friendly and I did enjoy the host of the show. I thought he did a great job interacting with everyone in the audience. However, we were there for a good 2 1/2 almost 3 hours and after a while the show started to feel very repetitive. The same performers and performances would come on stage on a loop. I did enjoy the performances but after a while it did become quite predictable. As far as the food, I wasn't crazy about it. I ordered the calamari for my appetizer- which was pretty good. I liked the sauce that was drizzled on it. However, my entree was kind of a disappointment. I got the lamb shank which just didn't mesh well with my taste buds. I know this is a cultural dish so it's just not a taste I was used to. However, I did wish I enjoyed it a little bit more. I will say the lamb was nice and tender. The best thing I had that evening was the pink dahlia. It was a delicious cocktail made with Malibu rum, pina colada mixture, pineapple juice and strawberry purée. It was so yummy, I had two! I'm grateful I got to experience this place, it was an overall enjoyable night. With that being said I don't see myself coming back to this establishment. For me it's very much a one and done experience.

    I was hesitant to go after reading some of the reviews…read more I visited Alhambra Palace Restaurant on Sunday, 4/26/26 around 4:30 pm. The restaurant wasn't crowded at the time, only a couple of tables were occupied, which made for a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere. Our waiter, Amine, was attentive throughout the entire dinner and made sure we had everything we needed. The food was delicious, and you can tell care goes into the dishes. I would definitely come back to try more items on the menu. Overall, a very pleasant dining experience.
