Middle Eastern
Cuisine
Located in downtown Waukegan
My name is Michel (Mike) and I started a Middle East restaurant with my wife (Marlene) in 2012. You’ll find that we don’t have any waiters or waitresses in our place. We are a husband and wife team, and you’ll find our son Sharbel there on occasion. Our cooks consist of Manny, Alicia, Angel, Chris, and Umaro. We are informal and we love to make people feel at home. In our restaurant, you’ll find everything from Chicago Style Sandwiches to our specialty, Middle East Food.
