Naf Naf Grill — Restaurant in West Chicago Township

Warm your PITAS!!!

I didn't give 5 stars because of two reasons: the first being that the pita was cold and it would have been nice if they warmed it up for takeout. The second is that the sauce containers are small and not enough portions of sauce for the entire dinner plate option.

I recommend getting two sauces since the container size for the sauce is a very small portion.

I had the garlic sauce which is their most popular and also had the lemon sauce. The garlic sauce was like a vinaigrette went very well with the chicken shawarma and pita. The lemon sauce was more creamy and was perfect with the falafels.

My partner had the tahini sauce and it was hella salty. Would not recommend. And also had the harissa sauce which is their spiciest but wasn't really spicy.

The falafels were my favorite part of the dinner plate. They were bland flavor wise but they were crispy and crunchy on the outside and moist and soft in the inside when you bite into it. I used the lemon sauce to dip them in so I was okay with the blandness of them.

I like that the dinner plate comes with two protein options. It was nice to sample the chicken shawarma and falafels.

Added some olives, shredded beets, and a pickle spear when I got home and used my own hummus too. They do offer hummus and pickles there but I preferred mine at home.

The pitas are excellent when warmed up in the microwave for 30 seconds just wish they warmed them up at the restaurant.

I felt very satisfied with the portion size and it was a light and fulfilling dinner for the price, was around $26-28 for two dinner plates to go. Will be...

very disorganized and long wait time, it was empty and workers were all in the back and food was dry and cold. workers were trying to not be rude but they were, and the manager heard me bringing up my concerns but didn’t seem to care . don’t get me wrong, they are kind people but just not too motivated or enthusiastic to work. the lady was probably uninformed or was too lazy to tell me there was the rice option included in my classic bowl, now i have only sauce and cold meat to eat. Not to mention it was super salty!! I went back in wondering if I could get rice added and they said I’d have to pay for the side. I don’t mind paying extra for the rice, but to know that I wasn’t informed and they didn’t take responsibility for it was saddening. i had naf naf in the suburbs and was really excited to come here, but this was just a huge disappointment. I ended up throwing my whole bowl away and went to panda express next door, i genuinely hope you guys do better.

overall, good people, bad...

5 STARS!!! Kudos to the staff for a great dining experience. My orders were takeout, but I can give high praise to the staff and management for a very clean and organized location. My food was FANTASTIC!!! 🤩 Tasty and delicious. You can basically close your eyes and choose from the menu and you won't be disappointed. I'm sure there are those who will disagree, but for a healthier than traditional fast food "on the go" Mediterranean option, NAF NAF does it right. Not to directly compare to authentic Mediterranean restaurants, but for its targeted market, Naf Naf shines bright. Friendly staff that greeted me upon entering the restaurant, food was hot and ready earlier than indicated in the app. I read a few of the 1 star reviews, although concerning, the other positive reviews from patrons are definitely on point. I will DEFINITELY...
