Skokie Grill and Bakery is a cozy Mediterranean restaurant in Skokie. Stop in and sample our signature desserts, get together with friends, or taste our comfort food in a hip environment.
I recently dined at Skokie Grill and Bakery and was thoroughly impressed with their offerings. The highlight of my meal was the fish dish, Maskoof, which was perfectly seasoned and cooked to tender, smoky perfection. The flavors were rich yet balanced, making each bite a true delight. Alongside it, I had the white bean soup, Fasolia Soup, which was a comforting bowl of warmth. The beans were cooked just right, and the broth had a depth of flavor that made it incredibly satisfying. Together, these dishes created a meal that was both hearty and memorable. Skokie Grill and Bakery has definitely earned a spot on my list of favorites!
I am surprised to see that this place had great selections of Mediterranean food. We ordered grilled fish and 4 meat combos, grilled mushrooms, hummus and all were very well seasoned and tasty. Prices were affordable and portions were generous. Parking was however very limited.
I must say, I was cautious to try since I've never had Kefta meat before but thought to give it a try. Simple small eating facility, took my time to look though the menu and chose the Lunch Special with an extra order of bread, two orders of garlic sauce and their fresh lemonade. Close to being completed, the gentleman handed me the lemonade. Could see and taste the lemons they just squeezed to make it. Then the food came out and left. On my drive back, the smell was so good I pulled over to check it out! Not only was it so much food for just a small lunch but so deliciously looking I had to have it! I am definitely a fan of kefta now, at least how they make it! Something that truly impressed me was the garlic sauce! Other places I've had garlic sauce, badly taste garlic, clearly use garlic powder... you can clearly see the garlic chopped in it! Tastes exactly like fresh garlic! I wish I would've gotten more for the bread cause I poured them over the food
Food was good. Tea was OK. I've had Iraqi tea in the past, this was bot one of my favorites. Very cute decor, appliances were broken in front, I wouldn't be surprised if also in the back. Workers seemed very nice.
