My family and I have been coming to al Shater for as long as I can remember. We’ve always eaten incredible food here and the staff are always absolutely wonderful and generous. Recently, my family and I hosted a 100+ person event and catered the food from al Shater. 3ame Khaled treated us like family, giving us an incredible price for all of the food we ordered and even accommodated our request to slightly modify the food to best suit the style of the event. The food was delicious, fresh, and clearly made with love and the highest quality ingredients. Tons of people after the party asked us who catered the food from how incredible it was, and we proudly directed them to al Shater! 3ame Khaled was constantly communicating with us in a timely fashion, listened to any/all changes and requests we had, honestly advised us on the right quantities of food we needed for the amount of guests we were hosting, welcomed us into the store with love and even had the food prepared ahead of schedule. We ordered many things including: kibbe, shawarma, hummus, tabboule, kofta, shish tawook, mana2eesh za3tar and jibne, sfee7a, spinach fatayer, etc. I’ve attached photos of some of the food from the event for reference and highly recommend al Shater for a quick delicious bite or any of your...
Read moreAuthentic, Tasty, Affordable Food. Big portions. Friendly Staff.
We love this shop. I recommend the spinach pies! It's a family owned shop and they make all of the food fresh each day. The recipes taste just like home-made food from the middle east. They give you large portions and if I'm honest, I think their prices are to low. They really should be charging more because you can tell they care about giving you quality food and lots of it.
The people are very nice and welcoming too. Recently, my daughter ordered a lot of spinach pies & cheese pies because she wanted to surprise us when she visited us in Chicago. That's how much we like this place. She was willing to use her carry on space to bring their food to us! She called this shop to make sure that they would have some pies available on the day that she was leaving and they went out of their way to make as many as she wanted and even packed them up nicely for her. We had a wonderful feast when...
Read moreThis spot is a true gem for the price and quality in this city it’s crazy. They have an authentic feel almost like at the cousins house and your aun cooks up some fire for you guys. This spot is certified, the meat is tender and juicy which you learn to not expect from a lot of shawarma style spots. They have a great system and the service is great too you can tell they got a genuine thing going. This is one of those spots I even wanna gatekeep. They’re not stingy with the portions they give you and they also sell things in a deli style where you can shop for any Mediterranean necessities and I usually get my pomegranate molasses from here as well, which goes amazing on their shawarma wraps. I like their use of the authentic Levantine style wrap. Really good spot...
