The Scene
This Middle Eastern eatery on the South Side is incredibly inexpensive (it's almost impossible to spend $15 per person) and very good. But look carefully: it's on the corner as city dwellers come across the 10th Street Bridge.
The Food
All the standards are here: hummus, baba ghanoush, and stuffed grape leaves (vegetarian and meat). Go for the fatoosh, which is a salad made of parsley, green onions, tomatoes, cucumbers and toasted pita chips. There's an assortment of wraps available with your choice of lamb, beef, gyro meat, falafel and portabello mushrooms. Kibbee is made fresh on Saturday evenings for the specials. Nightly specials might include wild rice with vegetables or baked chicken breast and potatoes in lemon and garlic sauce.

The food is outstanding, but Kassab's has an unfortunate knack for hiring the worst servers on the planet. Take out is fine, but I wouldn't dine there.

This is one of the best places to enjoy quality Middle Eastern food. Baba Gnannoj is outstanding. Filet kabob is an excellent value for the $. The sandwiches are awesome. I've tried just about everything on the menu and have yet to be disappointed.

This was our first time here and we enjoyed it a lot.( We usually go that place in Oakland,) We found the food was better, more of it, and the service was quick and very pleasant. That's just what we were looking for, and so we plan to be back ...alot. Thanks Kassab's!
