"This cafe is so good! I’ve been waiting to try a halal deli cafe! The chicken pesto panini was so delicious 🤤 along with the signature sub! We tried three different sandwiches, all were flavorful! The mango refresher was one of my favorites. It’s almost like a mango sparkling drink—-really went well with the food! Definitely my new fav sandwich spot in town!"

"All the food was amazing! Everything has a unique flavor profile and I will definitely be coming back! Mango refresher- is really good for sweet drink lovers Peach dragon - fruit refresher is fantastic if you like mildly sweet drinks! Chicken panini - the pesto hits!! Turkey panini - the most flavorful turkey cuts i’ve ever had!! Signature sub - great for meat lovers, packed with protein! Serai Burger - the buns are heavenly! The sauce complements it Fully halal, they also have vegetarian options!"

"I don't usually write reviews but the sandwiches and drinks were SO GOOD that I craved them for days after! Really delicious AND HALAL which is hard to find around here. The pastrami sub was the most delicious sub I have had ever. The amount of meat was generous and the flavor was unique to say the least. Love the addition of arugula. You won't be disappointed with Serai,"

"I had the absolute best experience at Serai Cafe. It’s officially my new favorite spot!!! The service was top notch, and everything I tried was absolutely delicious 😋 Here’s what I tried 👇🏻 🍔 The Thinker Serai Burger 🥪 Reuben Sandwich 🥪 Turkey Pesto Panini 🥪 Chicken Pesto Panini 🥪 Caprese Panini (Veggie) ☕️ Iced Macchiato 🌸 Lavender Mint Mocktail 🥭 Mango Refresher Every item was bursting with flavor. You can truly taste the freshness and quality in every bite. I honestly loved all of their food items and oh my gosh don’t get me started on their drinks. The lavendar mint mocktail is just the best mocktail I’ve ever had! I really loved their iced macchiato too. This spot is definitely a must visit for anyone in or visiting Chicago and the best part is that it’s halal!!"

"Phenomenal experience! The atmosphere was so welcoming! I decided to try a bit of everything (panini, smashburger, Ruben and latte). The quality was super fresh, and this place is zabiha halal which is a huge plus!! The service was excellent. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made me feel right at home. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a delicious meal in a relaxed and inviting setting. Can't wait to go back!"
