Stay away

This place is terrible. I can't believe someone would leave a 5-star review for this place, they must have not been to a real good Middle Eastern place. Now, I know we're talking Loop here, but it's still not a place I'd ever visit again.

The food is grossly overpriced. $8 bucks buys you a stingy plate of rice and a couple of pieces of meat thrown on top. Half piece of pita. No hummus! Are you kidding me?

The quality of the food isn't great either. They need to either lower their price or increase the portions. Stay away

Very good Mediterranean

I just took a new job on this side of the loop and was thrilled to see this place. Good Middle Eastern is hard to find in Chicago and this place has excellent food and service and you can't beat the price. Going to be a staple for me.

i wish metromix would come up with a special 10 star option for places like this. i have become an addict in a short amount of time - the falafel is the best i have ever had. everything is so fresh and delicious!!! and everyone working there always has a smile no matter how long the line is out the door. hands down, THE best way to spend $6 at lunchtime in the loop.

There is a reason there is a line out the door -- this place is great. Hands down the best Middle Eastern food in the Loop. Staff is friendly, quick and they will remember you. The owner always has a smile on his face and throwing free things into my food so I can try new stuff.

This is the best,fastest Mediterranean food downtown. The service is great, the food is great and it's dirt cheap for what you get. If I wasn't trying to save some money, I'd eat here everyday for lunch. Yummmmm!

One of my go-to lunch spots in the loop on a very short list. I'm very picky about my food. I want it fresh, healthy, and authentic. Forget Potbelly's and Cosi. Unoriginal and tasteless. This place is amazing. Best Hummus and Falafel, and the nicest staff ever! The owner is always giving me free samples of new things to try! I can honestly say I've never eaten one thing here I haven't liked.

This is the best Hummas and falafel I have ever had. The owners are so friendly and always let you sample before you buy so you know you will love everything you get. They do take credit cards.

The decor is no-nonsense (get your food to to go); the food is outstanding. This is the best Middle Eastern restaurant in the Loop. I have tasted pretty much the whole menu and liked everything. Also, the owner and staff are warm, friendly, and welcoming. Do yourself a favor and head to Taza for lunch tomorrow!
