The Combination Platter features a carefully selected assortment of skewers, shawarma, and falafel, perfect for anyone who appreciates true Mediterranean craft in every bite.

At Mazmez Middle Eastern Grill, quality and consistency are at the heart of everything we do. While our Wilmette location continues to serve as a favorite for local guests, diners also enjoy the same carefully prepared flavors and welcoming atmosphere at Mazmez Middle Eastern Grill Elk Grove IL.

five star review by Katy L:

Excellent, casual Mediterranean eatery. We had the combo plates, and we highly recommend the grilled chicken kebabs and beef kefta kebabs (shawarma is ok but better with toum/garlic and hot sauce). Some of the best falafel I've had in a while-- not dry at all. Hummus is super creamy, and the pita bread is chewy and fluffy (in a great way). The stuffed grape leaves are also warmed up and lemony. We will definitely be back!

One of the best Mediterranean restaurants ever. The staff is warm and friendly. The owner is kind and caring. I have tried several items off their menu and everything has been delicious. Their shawarma particularly is very identical to shawarmas served in Riyadh. They have very good lunch specials as well. I highly recommend this business.

This place is great. Very friendly staff and very clean. The food is awesome. The falafel and hummus are great. The meat is all seasoned well and tastes delicious. Food is good for take away or eat in. Highly recommend.

This is really great Middle Eastern food. The baba ganouj is perfectly smoky, the hummus perfectly creamy, and the shawarma huge for the price with lots of meat. I have a new favorite place!
