Did not expect falafel, couscous, hummus and spicy sauce to hit this hard. Everything was perfectly executed — crisp, airy, velvety. Pinched on the River makes humble ingredients feel curated. Effortless and exceptional.

I ate their food twice this week. First time at the restaurant enjoying the water view, and now I’m getting a delivery. The food was delicious, well seasoned, greatly sized portion and the server was very attentive. I recommend it.

Very substandard, disappointed, as it is right near Navy Pier... convenient location. The photos and the actual food don't match up. Spicy Beef Chevaps was served alone? The small piece of Baklava was the only good thing and even that wasn't very fresh.

My favorite Mediterranean food in the city. The spicy shug and lite garlic sauces are amazing
