What can you say? Best Indian food in Chicago (hands down!) and for a price that wont leave you broke (can add a little extra Aloo Gosht but thats neither here nor there lol). All of the staff is always friendly, ready to assist in making your experience great! I always go for the Samosas to start (Meat or Vegetarian ??) Aloo Gosht (not too spicy pero soy Mexicano I'm not shy either ??), Rice Pilaf, Naan/Parathas (Butter/Garlic ??) and a Mango Lassi (or two ????♂️➡️) and my day is cancelled after (laying down with leftovers). I have been going there for my birthday for years and it is a tradition I don't intend on stopping. If I could have Hema's everyday I wouldn't complain shoutout to the family holding it down for their culture's flavor. ??

The Indian food was really good. I ordered chicken and rice and they offered a sufficient quantity for a reasonable price. I definitely recommend ordering Indian cuisine from this restaurant and I will order myself again.

This, along with the former Clark street location were my favorite Indian restaurants in the city, until the last year or so. I thought maybe last time was a fluke so I ordered again and there is clearly new management / owner / cook there. Food does not even resemble what Hemas used to be, and the name on the sign outside of the restaurant doesn’t even say Hemas anymore, but the website / google still says Hemas. 100% not even close to how good the food used to be. My vindaloo is gelatinous. So sad …

Hema's kitchen is a peaceful place with a comforting feel. The waiters are very polite and respect all of your needs. the service is snappy and the food is always fresh. Definitely a must visit if you like Indian food!

Horrible. For 15 years I've enjoyed Hema's Kitchen but what I had tonight was completely different. It was bland, just horrible. We couldn't tell the difference between the Vindaloo and the Tiki Masala.Is Hema gone? Geeze, this was so bad.

Freshly prepared excellent food, good hospitality. Would love to dine in and order again
Vegetarian options: Malai kofta, Paneer kulchas, butter garlic Naan, tandoori roti, pokoras fried crisp gobhi were good choice we made. Would like to try rest of things in menu.
Kid-friendliness: As ordered least spicy food for child was served.

Absolutely delicious food and wonderful service. Well worth the hike from Ukrainian Village—best Indian restaurant I’ve experienced on Devon by far.

Worse place to eat. Terrible service- I have never seen such a bad service in a restaurant. Food was not adequate for a single person. Just wastage of money. I will not recommend to dine there ??
