Zad has excellent quality, generous portions, and reasonable prices. We think their chicken shawarma plate is the best in Chicagoland. Staff is always very warm and welcoming. One time the owner even spent time showing me their drink selection and various countries from where they originate!

Zad was fantastic! I went with my family who were visiting from abroad and they thought Zad was the best food they ate in the Chicago area. It was delicious, healthy, clean, and filling. Not only that but the service was unparalleled and the owner was highly generous and friendly. Can't recommend this place enough.
