Happy Eid! May the blessings of Ramadan be with you always. ✨

We are The Gundis Kurdish Kitchen and friends of survivors of the Feb 6, 2023 earthquake in Turkey and Syria. Many of us (and you) have donated to charities funding relief in the most affected areas, and yet, we know from close contacts and friends that the devastation is so immense that charitable organizations can only do so much. We are fundraising via Go Fund Me to directly support families in Mersin, Kahramanmaras, Hatay, and Adiyaman. Link and more info in bio:

Xwedê ji we razî be!

We want to thank so many of our friends and clients for their support during this time. We have no words for all the kind messages, thoughts, and prayers. Thank you so much from all of our family here at The Gundis Kurdish Kitchen.

We will reopen for dinner service as of today, Wednesday, October 26.

We are saddened to inform you that our Gundis family has lost an important woman in our history, Mercedes, mother of co-owner, Denisse, wife of our founding chef, Juan, and family and friend to so many of us on our team. She was an essential part of our beginning and gave what little she had to help us open our doors. She believed in The Gundis and truly loved Kurdish culture. She will be truly missed.

We will be closed until further notice as we grieve and as we accompany our family during this time. 🕊🤍

Now serving house-made ice cream; every week with new flavors.🍨

In an effort to provide our staff with a “weekend” off, The Gundis will be closed on Mondays and Tuesdays for the rest of the summer and early fall season.

We look forward to serving you Wednesdays through Sundays at 2909 N Clark Street.

To one of the greatest cooks/bakers and one of the greatest friends we could have ever asked for: Rojbuna te pîroz be! Happy birthday! ❤️💛💚🌹🎂

💐Happy Mother’s Day 💐
💐Roja Dayikan Pîroz Be 💐
💐Feliz Día de las Madres 💐

Our semi-sweet, nutty, wonderful Kurdish coffee is back! ☕️

We too will be celebrating Eid with our families and friends and wish to give our hard working staff a much deserved break - many of who worked through futoor فطور - while fasting.

We will back Friday, May 6, 2022.

We take our lamb shank very seriously.

Happy Sunday brunch day. 🌼🍳☕️

Although we may be temporarily out of Kurdish coffee, you can still take a little Turkish coffee break with us. ☕️

Weekend dinner vibes. 😋

Sunday nights are for light indulgences like the Burned Bottom Milk Pudding. 🍮

We know we are not unique when we say we’ve had quite the challenging year(s). But nevertheless, through the tough days and the good days, we are so thankful for the opportunity to serve you and to share our Kurdish roots with you. We are thankful for all we have learned and all the friends we have made along the way. Cheers to 5 years and to you!

Join us for dinner this New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day. We are open from 4PM to 10PM Friday and Saturday, and will reopen for brunch service on Sunday.

Reservations are limited for brunch. Call and reserve today. ❄️✨

Cozy up with a traditional Kurdish dish like our delectable Tirşik.

We will be closed for a private event today, Friday, November 5, 2021.

See you tomorrow at brunch!
