Masada

Love the ambiance!!! Services was great also! HOWEVER, I went there with a group of 5 other people 2 of which are under the age of 7 and they were playing rap music with curse words left and right. “F!@k, Bi?(h”.... not appropriate for a 6 o’clock family dinner. After expressing my concern they did change the music. As far as the food goes I really enjoyed the appetizers more than the actual combination dinner platter. The chunks of chicken were tender and delicious however the Kofta was very dry. I may return for a night out and enjoy some appetizers before a night of dancing but will not likely return for dinner.

The place was good. The food delicious and very large portions. I had the combination kabob platter which serves 2. We still had leftover for a third person. The server was very nice and patient considering he was the only wait staff for a full restaurant. It seemed that the management is not up to par.

I bought a falafel sandwich from them. You get a small pita bread and they put two falafel pieces and veggies. For close to $7 you do not get value for your money. It's not even a falafel wrap. It's one small pita bread, veggies and two falafel pieces. Also I did not like the way they make the falafel sandwich. The chef put the hummus in first and then the veggies and then the falafel pieces. I was thinking what the hell is this? I'm sorry, but I did not like the way they made it. I did not get a good value for price paid plus the way they made the falafel was awful. That's why I rate them a one star.

Good Mediteranian Restaurant, friendly staff and beautiful decor. The food tastes home made but I think they are taking it easy on the spicing as the flavor is not geared for Mediteranians. I am surprised the place was empty at dinner time. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for tasty but mild flavored Arabic Food. I will ask for more spice on my next visit.

Love love love this place. Food is authentic and super delicious. Outdoor patio and rooftop has an amazing view, and a great spot to enjoy food, a beautiful cocktail off their cocktail menu, or even enjoy a hookah. Great area for hosting any events large or small, especially on the outdoor rooftop or lounge. Entertainment every Wednesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday night! Including either a live band/singer, a dj, and belly dancers! Service is great and would highly recommend making a reservation so you can get the greatest possible experience! Such an amazing family owned restaurant right in the heart of Logan Square!

The place can get a little cold, but otherwise it's a great stop for a tasty meal. I love meat but they also serve stews, vegetarian appetizers and salads that are more than enough for a meat-free dinner. The Fatoush salad is a favorite, along with any baked lamb dish. I love the colorful interior, the diverse music they play and all the Middle-Eastern accents inside and out. Try the rooftop for a different experience: you almost feel like you should be surrounded by minarets and gaze over the desert. But that's misleading because the rooftop is full of flowers and hanging plants while a vine stretches all across the interior courtyard, shading guests from the summer sun. Look for hidden nooks to discover even more comfort as you go up and down the stairs. They have a dance floor on the lower level and the place gets full. So get there early.

The only good thing about this place is the rooftop atmosphere, because the food is less than average. We were about 20 people reserved at the rooftop, the service was terrible, the waiter didn't bring the sides which we didn't know there's a side with the platter until the end, also he brought some wrong orders and says in a rude way that he will charge us for, we were like no one asked you for free food!!
