Taboun Grill

Aside from great food, the service is incredible. The owners are special people and visit tables to ensure everything is as satisfactory as possible, I appetizers were great, as were the main courses. We are not kosher observant but this was recommended to us by neighbors who are and are going to be regular customers because the food and people are so nice. The other customers were friendly and it is family friendly.

My most favorite restaurant of all times!! Delicious authentic Mediterranean food. Great service , clean, generous portions and very well priced. This is always our first stop from the airport.

Food is good and tasty, but the quantity served feels like a joke. $42 dollars for “Grill Combination” and the amount of meat pieces can be counted on your fingers. I would not order that again. Otherwise, service was friendly and they allowed us with our service dog inside.

Answering to owner:
When we were placing our order, we asked the server if the dish could be shared by two and she said it depends. We took the risk and all we got was child-sized baby bites of three kinds of meat samples. We expected more from you. Definitely not worth it, we felt deceived and won’t be fooled again.

The food it’s OK, but this place is the cheapest place that ever see the pita lafa always empty they didn’t put the meat in normal way. Doesn’t matter what I’m ordering in plate all kind of meat it’s always little even the soup the cup it’s very small and they even didn’t full it . Instead of spoiled people that eating all the kosher they are using that and try to save always .

If you are looking for good Israeli style grilled food, this is the spot. Very tasty food! The staff is very friendly. The service is great.

I ordered Taboun to my hotel room. We loved every dish and have ordered before. The flavors are distinct and delicious and the meat is tender and smoky. We will certainly order again.
We ordered the baklava and haven’t even eaten it yet tonight. From past experience though, it’s the best I’ve ever tasted!

Absolutely fabulous. Spacious, comfortably lit, and well ventilated. You would never know the shawarma and grilling takes place openly right across the counter. But you can't miss it as you look across the large room over the happy diners and along the walls adorned with beautiful art depicting Israel and Judaica.
Vibe is comfortable and, casual, and family friendly.
Service is fabulous and waits are completely reasonable. The Israeli salad, in deed, all of the salads, are fresh, addictive, seasoned to perfection. The pita is hot and fresh and fluffy. Imagine my delight when my 8 year old tries the shawarma for his first time ever and says "it's amazing!"
The wait staff are sweet and attentive and polite.
I expected the Yemenite soup to be thicker and to come with pieces of meat but the flavor was there and it warmed my soul.
For desert do not pass up the home made baclava or pareve ice creams.
Kids menu includes chicken nuggets and a burger sans veggies. With sides of fries.
Can accommodate parties of few to many.
Order the ribeye with a side of Israeli salad and fries, some hummus and fresh pita and feel like a new person. I can't wait to return and try the curry chicken.
שמיר, שתמשיך בהצלחה בכל אופן עם כל לקוח

Taboun Grill is the best restaurant I’ve been to in Chicago. Their food is always fresh, the place is clean and the staff is attentive and friendly. The lunch special is a great value. The prices in general are quite reasonable for kosher.
