Zayna Mediterranean GrillB-

1147 W Grand Ave, Chicago, IL 60642 · Restaurant, Caterer, Falafel restaurant · Fulton Market

Casual halal Mediterranean spot with flavorful shawarma and generous salads, but consistency and service can be hit or miss; good for value-focused, quick meals and large catering orders.

Our take

Zayna Mediterranean Grill delivers dependable halal comfort food with strong shawarma and hummus quality, but inconsistent execution—occasional dry meats and bland rice—prevents higher reliability. Service ranges from warm to rushed during peaks, and waits can stretch 30-50 minutes, limiting its appeal beyond a convenient neighborhood stop. Fair pricing and generous portions make it a solid casual choice for quick halal meals, though it lacks the consistency and distinction of grade A-level establishments.

One caveat: Execution varies by visit; some report dry chicken or bland rice, especially when crowded
