We made a somewhat last-minute large reservation with a group at work and were on a time crunch. Everything was served very promptly, was a great value, and all who joined us were impressed!

Food was very good, although we ordered a dish with shrimp...got chicken. Kitchen was closing so didn't bother to complain. Also, they did not note my Open Table reservation. I think most of their business is carryout.

The food was delicious, so we were surprised that we were the only party in the restaurant the whole evening. I hope more people will realize what a great little place this is!

BYOB (no where close to run out after you order). Food was good except for the over abundance of dry spice/ red pepper that was poured over the meal. Service was friendly and efficient. Great value for west loop.
