Totally didn’t expect to have a good lunch at a tollway oasis, but it turns out that the chicken schwarma wrap here is very yummy! Tender chicken wrapped in a warm pita really hit the spot today. And it’s tastier than the other run of the mill junk at the oasis like McDonald’s and Subway.

Had the chicken shwarma wrap and falafel. The wrap was ok sauce tasted alittle off. The falafel was overcooked and hard. I frequent many Mediterranean restaurants and this is pretty average. The falafel being inedible lost them a whole star.

The food itself would merit a solid 4-star review regardless of location. This place gets the extra star for being a legit healthy option at the Belvidere Oasis. So glad to have this!

I drive under the oasis on my commute every night, so I thought I’d give this a try. I got the salad with chicken, and a combo plate for my partner. I also got a small box of baklava. The ingredients were fresh, and the meal was very tasty! I wasn’t expecting a lot for a toll road oasis eatery, but this was delicious, and at a really good price as well! I’ll be stopping again soon.

Fresh and delicious! I had the chicken Shwarna wrap — the pita was perfect and very tasty. A fellow diner ordered the #6 combo and proclaimed it delicious — the portion was large and filling. Friendly, fun people. A nice change from the fast food we were expecting to find at the Oasis! Will not hesitate to try more menu offerings on other trips.

Delicious FRESH food among a sea of unhealthy choices! Ordered the fresh garden salad with chicken. The ‘salad’ consists of chopped cucumber, tomato, parsley and lemon dressed in Tziziki sauce topped with shaved chicken! Yum! We will stop here again!

You have got to be freaking kidding me… Real food — real good food at an oasis on the Illinois tollway. Fresh scratch made on premises shawarma. It’s good, it’s solid. The plate comes with rice, cucumber salad and roasted vegetables. We also had a Mediterranean platter, which included falafel, hummus, two kinds of cucumber salad and baba ghanoush. Freaking good baba ghanoush at the oasis, on the tollway. We topped it off with some outstanding balaclava. Oh and there is more — this place has a fresh juice bar… Made right there in front of you. The service was also outstanding and accommodating. Skip the fast food joints, the national chains… Eat here. I’m actually excited about my next Belvedere Oasis stop on the Illinois tollway.

Extremely solid Mediterranean. Thrilled to have a unique vendor like this running their business at the Belvidere Oasis. Chicken Schwarma plate was great. Food looked and tasted fresh. Schwarma had a nice unique hint of just a little crispiness on some of the charring — really nice quality. Great value too. I’m guessing it was the owner that was serving, and his son running the cash register. Both were very nice. Give the local business a try!
