looking for good delivery food

I'll be moving soon and usually that means about two weeks of delivery food as I pack and unpack my kitchen. Any favorites that deliver to Lakeview/Southport Corridor?

I love ALL kinds of food, so I'm really looking for variety. My current favorites include:

Lou Malnati's
Spoon Thai
ChinaLite (not great, but very quick!)

I could definitely go for a good mexican, italian (non-pizza), indian or middle eastern option. Maybe a better Chinese place too.

I like Miss Asia for Pan-Asian/Thai and Fattoush for Middle Eastern.

I think Sticky Rice and maybe Tac Quick might be in your delivery area. I used to live at George and Lincoln and both delivered to me. I also second Fattoush and would add Raj Darbar for some reasonably good, somewhat overpriced Indian food.

I haven't used the site, but I've seen it advertising itself: grubhub.com, I believe is all about who delivers what. Other's here may know how well it achieves its goals.

I've been to grubhub. It's a great resource, but I don't really trust the reviews they have on the website. Still, it's a great way to get a list of all restaurants that deliver to your area.

i had a very verbal falling out w/ grubhub over their site...

they do have an extensive list of places that deliver to you.. it's probably the best.

the problem is up until recently, they allowed people to anonymously review restaurants on there, and there were some restaurants where it was absolutely clear that there were 10 postings a day from the restaurant owner. so the results were skewed accordingly. i got very pissed off and verbal w/ them about it, because it was so blatantly obvious there was no way they didn't know it was happening (Nan's in Lincoln Park was one of the bigger offenders. they actually went as far as to reuse my very unique name two days after I reviewed them on grubhub)... they've now changed their site to hopefully mitigate this... they tie your review to an actual order, so you actually have to order i guess to review, and maybe they have an account system or something? i don't really know, i haven't looked at it much.. last time i used their site, my order was missed over by them and when I called to inquire why my food wasn't there it was a big "ohhhh, we missed" kind of thing. i don't think that happens very often, though, and there's an automated system they use where the restaurateur is supposed to enter the delivery time into the phone, which then in turn is available information on their site.

i do give them credit though for a few "green" things they do... they have a "no condiments" button you can check so when you order chinese you don't get 100 packets of soy sauce, 20 napkins, 14 fortune cookies, 10 hot mustards, etc.. and they supposedly purchase carbon offset points for every order purchased through their site. (surely this is more symbolic than actually useful, but i guess "every little bit...")

Those are two of my favorite restaurants in my neighborhood. Great suggestions.

Fattoush in particular is absolutely stellar. They offer some of the best Lebanese food I've ever had, with me fiend'ing for their tabouli, shwarma and toum about once a week. For those who haven't given them a shot, you're missing out

(pardon my fanaticism, I'm just always shocked that the place isn't more crowded.)
