Food was great; ingredients were full of flavor and tasted fresh. Portions were large. Prices were reasonable across the menu. Staff was super friendly. Will definitely be back. Great addition to Brady St. 🙏
EDIT: Just wanted to update my review now 11 months later. Shawarma Palace is easily one of my top favorite restaurants on Brady St (in fact, in terms of my frequency eating there, it is probably my #1 spot). I've had quite a few of their dishes now at this point. They really have (in my opinion) the tastiest chicken shawarma in the city. Likewise their chicken shish tawook and (beef) shish kabob are fantastic. Very flavorful and well seasoned/marinated. Their falafel is great. And (also very important to mention) their lentil soup is amazing... Their recipe is apparently from the mother of one of the owners (I assume he's an owner but I've never specifically asked). Anyway, this place is so damn good and SO reasonably priced. Their plates are HEAVY and always feel healthy / fresh. Nothing is overly greasy, nor does anything taste like it's been sitting in a freezer/cooler forever. Just good food across the board.

Read moreI recently had the pleasure of dining at Shawarma Palace, and I must say, their shawarma bowls are absolutely phenomenal! From the very first bite, I was blown away by the explosion of flavors. The tender, perfectly seasoned shawarma, combined with fresh, crisp vegetables and aromatic spices, made for an unforgettable culinary experience.
The bowls are not only delicious but also generously portioned, ensuring you get your money's worth. Each ingredient was thoughtfully chosen and perfectly balanced, creating a harmonious blend of tastes and textures. The accompanying sauces were the perfect finishing touch, adding a delightful kick without overpowering the natural flavors of the ingredients.
The staff was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting, making the entire dining experience even more enjoyable. I highly recommend Shawarma Palace to anyone looking for a delicious and satisfying meal. This place is a true gem, and I can't wait to return for more! Five stars...
Read moreI’m so happy we finally got a great Mediterranean restaurant on Brady street! So far we’ve tried the falafel bowl and the Arabic mix wrap along with some hummus and pita. The falafel was perfectly fried and moist, my shawarma (aka doner kebab) was excellent, and the hummus was creamy, fresh and delicious. The pitas are locally made and fresh and a bit chewy. Most places around here use the same old flat and dry pitas from Chicago. Not here. I recommend trying them out, the quality is as great, just like their other related restaurants.
ONE COMPLAINT: It’s crazy to me that a restaurant would open at noon. This makes it impossible for someone to order something and eat at noon. Plus many people eat lunch prior to noon. They are missing out on lots of sales by not opening before noon. Makes no...
