Zimi's Pizza and Grill

The Best Mediterranean Restaurants In Chicago - Chicago - The Infatuation

"With a name like Zimi’s Pizza And Grill, it’s not surprising this Rogers Park spot has pizza, burgers, and wings. But hiding among the margherita pies and fries are tasty Albanian dishes, like a flaky spinach and cheese burek and all sorts of traditional meat options. The stuffed pleskavica is a glorious ground beef slab full of cheese, like a juicy lucy that divorced the bun, and their qebapa and spicy qofte have an excellent charred flavor and pair perfectly with the creamy tart kajmak on the side. Zimi's has plenty of room for groups, so you and some fellow carnivores will have space to tackle the large meat platter that comes with qebapa, qofta, spicy beef franks, steak, and chicken." - john ringor, adrian kane, veda kilaru
