The Best Restaurants In Little Italy And University Village

"Despite its name, resist the urge to only get kebabs at Cairo Kebab—there are plenty of other Egyptian specialties that deserve a spot on the table. The koshary is an excellent mountain of rice, lentils, pasta, tomato sauce, and fried onions. The taamiya is a must-order as well, because there aren’t many places in Chicago to get fava bean falafel and the ones here are perfectly crispy. Whatever you end up ordering, meals are never hurried—which is great because you’ll want to relax in their booths with throw pillows after eating a table full of mezze." - veda kilaru, adrian kane
