Alhambra Palace, Mediterranean restaurant in West Loop, Chicago, United States.
Alhambra Palace is a Mediterranean restaurant in Chicago's West Loop occupying multiple floors with arched entryways, mosaic tilework, and handcrafted furniture imported from Middle Eastern artisans. The dining space contains several rooms designed with tall arches and ornately decorated walls throughout.
Dr. Nasar Rustom opened this establishment in 2007 using design elements collected during travels across the Middle East and North Africa. The interior was shaped by these regional influences to echo Granada's architectural heritage.
The dining rooms evoke a palatial setting with multiple spaces featuring high arches and handcrafted furnishings that create the feeling of traveling through Mediterranean lands. The kitchen serves Persian kabobs and Mediterranean dishes that reflect the imported aesthetic throughout the interior.
The restaurant is conveniently located on Randolph Street in the West Loop with parking available nearby. Opening hours vary by day of the week, with extended evening hours on Friday and Saturday that work well for late-night visits.
Artisans from Syria, Lebanon, Egypt, and Morocco created the interior elements including stone mosaics, arabesques, and hand-painted wall tiles. This collaboration of international craftspeople makes the space a rare example of authentic North African and Middle Eastern artistry within an American restaurant setting.
