Chicago’s Best Halal Fried Chicken & Tacos

JOLIE STINSON

OMG, Y'all!! This is one of the BEST, off the beaten path restaurants in Chicago! We drove ALL the way up from Hyde Park and really didn't know what to expect. The space, though super small, is eclectic, with some very cool decor. The ambience and vibe are on point. Cool music playing as well. The customer service ... is IMPECCABLE! The food is INCREDIBLE!! We're GREEDY, so, we ordered the guacamole, the elotes, the fried chicken torta, fried chicken strips, lamb tacos and beef barbacoa tacos. The portions were HUGE and all entrées came with sides of either fries, which were AMAZING, or beans and rice that were quite tasty. The chicken strips came with a honey butter Biscuit that will make you slap your Mama! Not knowing how much food was headed our way, we had the audacity to order the hot donuts as well. They are more along the lines of huge beignets and were hot and scrumptious! This place is a GEM and I HIGHLY recommend it to everyone !! We will DEFINITELY be back!!! Read More

Amazing tacos and fried doughnut. My husband had the lamb and I had chicken- both of them were amazing! I also tried the strawberry lime aqua Fresca which was also good. Would return, one of the most flavorful chicken tacos I’ve had! Great customer service

My life will never be the same. It was beautiful how intentional they are with every aspect of the food, service and atmosphere. All their sauces were made in house and I especially enjoyed their bbq sauce which had a unique Mexican twist of what tasted like it used tajín and chamoy. Their biscuits were amazing and I ... definitely want to try out their take and bake options. I left extremely satisfied and will be sure to return. Read More

Congrats Chef! The jerk cauliflower tacos were so flavorful and the cojitas cheese is a nice compliment to that kick of heat. Also at the table and super delicious too was the fried torta sandwich w/crinkle fries and the chicken tacos.

Had a chance to try out Migos finally after having them at many pop ups. The hype is REAL! Some of the freshest, most flavorful food I have ever had. I wanted to try a bit of everything with my friend. We got the chicken al pastor tacos and the lamb barbacoa tacos. The chicken tacos were some of the best I have ever ... had, and usually chicken tacos are a bit dry to me. But these? Were perfect. The lamb tacos were also pretty good but the chicken outshines it. The potato empanadas were serious, like so fresh and flakey. You can tell it was freshly made and not just sitting out there. The star of the show 100% has to be the chicken and biscuits. Like that biscuit was so buttery and flakey and not dry. The spicy butter really compliments them well. Also tried all three juices and the kool-aid hibiscus is a must try! Overall, this has to be my new favorite spot. Especially for those tacos alone! I will be back! Read More

I had a chance to visit this place about a month ago. I drove in from IN. I will drive, fly, or a slight jog for good food lol.. I had a tough time making a decision on what to order. I love that the restaurant has a digital menu with pictures & descriptions. I went with the Lamb carnitas, the portion size was on ... point. EVERYTHING was amazing!! Just when, I thought the beans, salad, & Lamb was enough. Hiding underneath my lamb was this delicious rice.. The hospitality of the gentleman working kind enough to let me use the restroom. I believe generally was primarily for staff. Even back behind the scenes in the restaurant very clean with more smiling friendly staff. From the Biscuit he gave me.. He said: heat it, before eating” Well that Biscuit didn’t make it back to IN.. lol There are so many wonderful things to say about this place.. The decor, music, & real plants everywhere in the space.. Definitely a warm inviting, and good atmosphere. With Great food! This place is here to stay.. Read More

I love it here! The zabiha halal food here is so flavorful and rich in deep, immaculate tastes. I’d come here again (for the fourth time!). It is a tad expensive though, but the superior quality and freshness of the food makes up for the prices! I got the fried chicken torta, beef barbacoa tacos, spicy beef empanadas, ... 4 pc chicken tenders with fries and biscuit meal, and lamb carnitas meal throughout multiple visits. Soooo delicious, especially something to eat for iftar during Ramadan if you’re not cooking at home! The staff is also friendly, and the food came out fast! I’m glad they offered discounts for first time online orders with the coupon code “local” to decrease the price a bit! Read More
