ABOUT US
Jibek Jolu is now in Glenview
In 2010, we founded our little restaurant on the northside of Chicago. We named it Jibek Jolu to convey the rich culinary and cultural background that the restaurant would represent. In ten years, we expanded our team, menu, and services we offer. More importantly, in 10 years we have greeted and befriended many of you. Since the last few years, more and more guests requested to add a location with a parking space, larger space, and a terrace to dine outdoor. And we heard the requests.
Our menu at The Glen offers an even larger variety of cuisine, with even more delightful dishes and drinks prepared by the best chefs and barmen in the area. The interior of the restaurant is a sight to see, unlike anything you have seen before. We hired the best interior designers, leather, glass, wood, bronze, and felt craftsmen in Kyrgyzstan to assemble a modern design with a nomadic spirit. All the pieces of this ensemble are handmade and brought all the way from Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Italy and Russia.
