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 ????♂️➡️)...

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.
