I love Turkish food and I have been to other Turkish restaurants but it was more Mediterranean/American/Turkish food but A La Turka Turkish Kitchen was great authentic Turkish food and the service was great. I think this is a great place to go with friends and the portions are very large for sharing and the price was very decent. It is also a great date place as it is a cozy and very romantic setting,
Pros: everything was pretty great..the food, the price, the atmosphere
Cons: I like my food sizzling hot

Having lived in Chicago, and on both coasts, I've been to countless Middle Eastern restaurants. I go back to Maza every time I'm in Chicago - this is absolutely the best restaurant I've been to when evaluating an overall dining experience.
Food - Incredible. Authentic Lebanese food - the "maza" style gives you a little taste of everything; otherwise, every regular entree I've had is delicious. If you can handle raw meat ("steak tartare") go for the Kibbeh Nayeh - unreal. All lamb and chicken dishes are excellent. They have seafood & vegetarian items as well - something on the menu for everyone. For dessert, the baklava is authentic: flaky, somewhat buttery, and delicious. The mint tea (brewed with real mint, not in a bag) is a perfect way to top it off.
Price - Very reasonable. Entrees run from $12-$18 and portions are more than adequate. A complete dinner for two will average about $50-$60 ($80-$90 if you get the Lebanese wine, which I highly recommend).
Service - Top-notch. Joe is the owner of the restaurant and the only waiter (he has additional staff that help serve food & drink, clear dishes, etc.) He's incredibly nice (one reviewer said otherwise - has to be an anomaly - I promise he's one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet). Food is served promptly and courteously, and the whole staff goes out of their way to make sure you have a great dining experience.
Ambiance - Excellent. It's a somewhat small, semi-romantic place. I've taken dates there, but also had dinner with groups of 6 or 8 - it works well for both.
Again, considering EVERYTHING: food, service, price, ambiance, etc - this is the best restaurant I've been to. I highly recommend this restaurant, and I look forward to going back every time I'm in Chicago.
Pros: Excellent food, prices, service
Cons: ?

I stumbled across this place 4 years ago with some friends and we decided to give it a try. And I'm so glad we did because since then it is my favorite restaurant!!! It has a great atmosphere. You can either sit at a regular table or you can take off your shoes and sit on pillows around a table! It is BYOB which helps cut down on cost when going out! But cost isn't really even an issue when dining there because everything is so moderately priced!! I love the mediterranean spinach which is like $11, and there are always leftovers to take home! Everything on the menu is fantastic!!!!!!! Just writing this review makes me want to go there right now! This is a great place to go with friends or even for a romantic date!

i have nothing but good things to say about Sigara. i had just recently thrown my girlfriend a birthday party at Sigara. We had 30+ people come, the host was extremely helpful through every step of the process, more then helpful with any questions and everything else. We searched a few other places but this was by far the best deal anywhere we got the $25 unlimited house well drinks and unlimited hookah all night. all the guests loved the place and are even planning to throw their upcoming parties at Sigara. I read the reviews and was skeptical but my friends told me otherwise and my girlfriend and I are so thankful they hinted this place to us. Also through out the many hookah lounges I've been to I've no come across such interesting flavors and water mixes yet, in one of our hookahs we had a red wine mixed into the water and a special tobacco mix that created such a unique (in a good way) taste that is truly something else. on top of great service, hookah, and atmosphere, you can order food. our party was crazy for the humus, and Sigara has a great open bar and coffee. again i have only the best things to say about Sigara and highly recommend it to anyone, especially big groups. the only down side is parking but you can find some just two blocks down either direction, but it is tough :( but despite that,they will most definitely see us and our friends in the future!!
Pros: Hookah, atmosphere, great for big groups, great package deals, service!
Cons: parking

Pros: Clark location rocks!
Cons: busy restaurant

I dropped by Clark Street to visit some friends of my boyfriend to join them for dinner and had the pleasure of spending what turned out to be the best night of my visit in Chicago. It'd been such a hot start to the summer (upwards of 110 degrees) and staying outside for long stints of time was particularly undesirable during the day and being stuck inside the house wasn't my idea of a vacation. So when I got to Andie's it was probably around 8:30pm. The outside of the restaurant is open, the tables on the outside, under the stars were all taken by 27 to 35 year old couples looking Chicagan and in love. It was such a pleasant atmosphere, I highly recommend going in at least once if you live in Chicago. Our waitress arrived at the perfect time, as our excited conversations slowed a bit and gave us not only suggestions but also gaged my tastes and asked me about my vacation and a little about the West Coast. I am very pleased with my experience here and hope you have the chance to dine here as well.
PROS: Excellent Service, Excellent ambiance, Excellent Food
CONS:
