"This was my first try with african cuisine, and Im so glad I picked this place. The Spinach & Egusi Stew was special with lots of flavor. I ordered with chicken, I received two large drumsticks, they were juicy, fried (not breaded) and it added such a nice crisp and char to the dish. Also a good amount of spice! but it wasnt too much spice for me and im usually a mild spice person. Would reccommend to anyone curious about egusi"
"Spinach & Egusi Stew:
The stew was extremely oily, and the flavor just wasn't to my taste. On the positive side, it was cooked thoroughly, and you could tell care was taken with the preparation.
Turkey Tail (Tsofi):
For the price they're charging, this felt like a rip-off. You can buy a whole pack of turkey tails at the grocery store for about the same price and get much more. What was served were just small, bite-sized pieces coated in suya seasoning, which didn't feel like a good value."

"Real authentic food. I love The Fish was sweet and had a special taste to it with the fresh crunchy veggies... boom :) The rice was a bit dry and could've been a little more portion but overall the flavor and freshness was amazing I enjoyed can't wait to order again. I shared with my family and they loved it as well. "
"The red snapper was barely large enough to feed two people AND it was dry/overcooked. I can do much better for $32. Do yourselves a favor and try the Nile's snapper (when it's available) and take some notes. I gave two stars because my husband liked the plantains. They were good, but I prefer a bias cut. The Djolof rice was just ok. "

"Did not taste like egusi, it was watery and salty. For $30, the customer should be able to choose their meat instead of having gigantic turkey tips bones with no meat. The price is just astronomical especially considering other places have better egusi EGUSSI SOUP assorted meat choice and 1/3 of the price. Taste like the tik tok egusi powder"

"We've been ordering and visiting Ethiopian Diamond for over 20 years. The food is incredible. While we sometimes order spicier options, our favorites are the 29. Tikel Gomen and the 15. Doro Tibs Alicha (Mild). We love that there are so many vegetable options, and we often order the 39. Veggie Combo so we can get a variety. The food is consistently good and always fresh. The portions are large and great for sharing. Recommend ordering extra Regular Injera Bread. Everything tastes amazing. 10/10 we will certainly order again. Food is priced well, great value."
"My first time trying Ethiopian food, and this was incredible!! The meat on the E2. Meat Sampler (For One) was so tender and heavily spiced, and the Regular Injera Bread is perfect, more tangy than I was expecting but delish. My favorite part of the sampler was actually the greens! So stewed and filling...plus, the portions are generous for the price and the sambusa was SO crispy!
Also... HIGHLY recomment the D3. Chocolate Diamond*. A perfect ending for the meal - the chocolate wasn't sickly sweet, and the fried chips were perfect.
I will definitely be ordering from here again!!"

"Jollof rice was soft and soggy, Goat meat was hard, overcooked and bland, chicken was bland with NO seasoning whatsoever. Out of everything the plantain might have been the worst. I could handcount the number of plantains (WHICH WAS 5 DOLLARS) and they were so thin it felt like I was eating a paper towel. Would not touch this Restaurant even if they offered me a meal for FREE.

"The ONLY reason this isn't a 5 star review is because it was a little pricey especially for the portion sizes. Specifically the Mac and cheese. But the flavor was really really good on everything! The Spicy Chicken Caesar Wrap was delicious. The 12 PERi Buffalo Wings & Chips were seasoned and had lots of sauce on them & the chips were crispy! The chicken tasted fresh and it was hot when it arrived . Definitely will be ordering here again! "

"I'll definitely come back for seconds, I had the Smoked Jerk Brisket 1/2 LB and the Large Sweet & Spicy Smoky Baked Beans and they SLAPPED! The flavors are just perfect and the serving is good enough for 2 meals or sharing if you're into that"
"Jerk was my go to spot but lately portions have been wildly inconsistent and the quality/care seems to have gone out the window. Grilled Jerk Chicken Thigh Combo used to have at least 8oz of chicken and a generous helping of rice, now it seems to be closed to 4-5oz and a small spoonful of rice. Not the value it once was. The Smoked Jerk Pork 1/2 LB was drier than shoe leather, cannot believe someone saw that and thought serving that was a good decision. Sweet Plantains continue to be dry and portion size has also gotten smaller."

"I have been on Doordash for some 10 years and maybe left one or two reviews, haven't in years. But while enjoying this order from Port of Peri Peri tonight, I was succinctly thinking to myself "I have to write a review". This was a complete home run - a grand slam. This is my new favorite chicken place in Chicago. When I chose the Extra Hot option, I was expecting to get the usual extra type of hot. But wow, this was an extra special hot. Definitely got the senses up. And the corn is incredible. I look forward to my next time ordering. BRAVO!!!!"

"ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS 😋"
"I didn't really care for the chicken. This was my first time trying this restaurant. It was a little dry and lacked flavor. Even the jerk sauce tasted weird to me. The rice and peas were dry and the cabbage would have been the highlight if it wasn't a little salty. Even the chicken in the salad was dry. The only good food I received was the Beef Patty and Ribs with the honey sauce I ordered on the side. Plantains were also tasty as well. Otherwise I'm fine with not ordering from this place again. $70 wasted."

"Nile of Hyde Park misses the mark where it matters most. The chicken shawarma was dry and lifeless, the chips that came with the shawarma were stale, and the bread for the soup arrived still sealed in its plastic packaging. The rice was so over salted, it drowned out every other flavor. The lentil soup was merely passable.
The only redeeming dish was the kifta kabob, which was tender and properly seasoned. One well-executed item couldn’t rescue an otherwise careless meal."

Not too weak, not too strong, but just right. I enjoyed it very much; it just shouldn't have "boneless" in the name. And the portion was generous - I ordered a Combination Plate with the chicken inasal and that fish stew, and I got close to a half chicken and (it looked like) most of the fish other than the head and collar. So that combo plate is an excellent value for the money. I agree with the reviewer who said the garlic rice could use more garlic, but overall this combo plate was a good time, and I made two meals out of it.
The Suman Sa Lihiya could easily be split between either two or four people. Definitely too much for one person to eat in one sitting. It comes with toppings/dippers of a brown sugar based sauce and some shredded coconut. This seemed to be the most "basic" flavor of suman from what I could tell, and I liked it, so I'll be trying other flavors.
The Lumpia Sariwa pictured here was fresh and seemed well executed. It turned out not to be a wow for me, but I could tell it was a matter of "I don't particularly care about this dish" rather than anything wrong.
Overall, as you can see there were some minor imperfections, but overall it was very worth it, and I will be trying more dishes here. This was my first time trying Filipino food, and I'm glad I picked this place. "

First things first, the crunchy pork belly was a game-changer. The moment I took a bite, I was greeted with a satisfying crunch that gave way to tender and succulent meat. The flavor was out of this world, with a perfect balance of savory and slightly sweet notes. Each piece was expertly cooked and seasoned to perfection. It was like a party in my mouth!
Now, let's talk about the tocino sweet pork. This dish was a delightful explosion of flavors. The pork was incredibly tender and had a beautiful caramelized glaze that added a touch of sweetness. The combination of the savory meat, the sticky glaze, and the fluffy rice was pure magic. And let's not forget the perfectly cooked eggs on top, adding a creamy richness to the dish.
The pork belly was beautifully arranged with a garnish of fresh herbs, while the tocino sweet pork was served with a side of sunny side eggs and fresh tomatoes that added a tangy contrast to the sweetness of the meat.
I can't recommend Imas Kitchen enough. If you're a fan of crispy, flavorful pork belly and mouthwatering tocino sweet pork, this is the place for you. It's a culinary adventure that will leave you craving for more."

"What a new little gem this restaurant is in the South Loop. The food is Delicioso!!!! It is very authentic Mexican reasonably priced, good portion sizes, the food was hot and fresh, friendly staff, great decor and my boyfriend and I come and eat here all the time. Highly recommend!"
"The Quesabirria was delicious! I wish there were three of them, like other meals they offer. The guacamole was just okay. The way it was packaged made it squirt everywhere! They need a larger container and more flavor. The chips and salsa were fine, but they weren't homemade, which was evident. This was for takeout. Overall, it was an average meal. Will visit again to have the Quesabirria! "

"Food was fantastic but portions were small. Also orders were not labeled, so may not be best place if you have a big group order like we did."
"I love the food here, everything tastes good, and is always fresh, but the portion for the Double Scoop - Poke Bowl is so small, especially considering the price. The tuna portiom was even smallet than the tofu, and almost 20 dollars for what is the size of a small fried rice is insane. This place is good for takeout but I wouldn't order if you don't wanna pay an arm and a leg."

The green beans were well seasoned, juicy, so good!! Mac n cheese was just okay on its own but paired well when eaten with everything else. First time eating at Jamaican Jerk King and definitely not my last. "
"The rice and peas were really simple and lacked flavored. Good amount of chicken and sides, cabbage and carrots were springy and fresh. Chicken just gave smoky bbq probably wouldn't order again if specifically craving jerk but if I was just hungry eh"

"If you want authentic Peruvian this is your place. Fina Estampa is my go-to when I miss home. Highly recommend pollo a la brasa, lomo saltado and tallarín saltado de pollo y carne. Price is great, meals are affordable and even though portions seem 10% smaller now, it's still worth it for the amount of food you get, and it is always fresh.
SIMPLY THE BEST IN CHICAGO and I've been to many Peruvian places, trust me. This is it. Nobody paid me for this review. Just being honest and recognizing a GREAT place for others to try and enjoy."

"Chicken soup had good taste but was just chicken and broth. Would not order again. Wish it had some veggies maybe even noodles or side of rice.
The Pepito Sandwich was nothing special. The salsa really was the only thing that made it somewhat better.
But their Avena Oatmeal Shake was indeed worth the hype"
