49 Best Indian Restaurants in Chicago

“I was fortunate to enjoy dinner at Indienne with my team, and the entire experience was exceptional. The food, service, and ambiance were all outstanding from start to finish.

What impressed me most was how unique and innovative the cuisine was. As someone who enjoys Indian food, I was delighted to experience flavors, presentations, and combinations that were completely new to me. This is exactly what I expect from a Michelin-starred restaurant, an experience that goes beyond a great meal and introduces diners to something memorable and unexpected.

The service was attentive, professional, and warm, while the elegant atmosphere made the evening even more enjoyable. In a city like Chicago, which is truly a paradise for food lovers, Indienne stands out as a remarkable culinary destination.

I look forward to returning in the future and experiencing another unforgettable meal. Highly recommended.“

“We visited this restaurant today in a group of 4. The menu has lot of variety and huge vegetarian options. We ordered Chicken 65, Onion Pakora, Gobhi Manchurian, Paneer Tikka masala and Mushroom Kadhai along with Naan. All of the items were extremely flavourful and starters were very crispy. The service was awesome too. The restaurant justified the high rating in Google maps through their service and food.“

“i did not like the chicken sandwich. I were there with my family . It is very expensive and special pizza was not the tasty .“

“I enjoyed all food and the service. Drinks were great. 2 things I would like to bring to the management’s attention:
1) There is no biryanis on your menu but your website proclaims it. Please make the change.
2) Restroom - while I appreciate the fact that you have blowers to dry the hands, I still need to touch the knob to exit… then I have to eat Indian food - usually done with hands… do you see the problem?
That aside, you have a very good thing going for us Chicagoans and we wish you even more success.
I think I saw Sujan in the kitchen… busy helping… celebrity sighting.. yay“

“Amazing food & service,superb.“

“Food was delicious and our waiter (Jaden) was friendly and attentive. We had the samosas to start, the fish basant, chicken makhani (my personal fav), and the side of yellow dal. Desert of the cheesecake was great as well. Plenty of left overs between 2 people. Will definitely be back!“

“Being an old Irishman, I wasn’t sure Indian food was an option for a family dinner. Adda Restaurant in Little Italy proved me wrong. They were kind and most helpful in choosing entrees. My family was excited and blown away with the flavors, the options, the spices and the quality of the chefs entrees. Thank you for your help and we will be sure to become regulars.“

“the lamb with spinach, mushrooms and potatoes was so delicious! Vegetable vindaloo was pretty good, but asked if there were green peas and was told no. There were a LOT. the garlic Naan was delightful“

“Guys hands down the best samosa is made here. I got the potato samosas and carrot khalwa and brought my whole family here. The owners are very kind and Make the freshest food available. I recommend coming here. You will not be disappointed!“

“The food is incredible! The staff are friendly, kind.“

“The food was terrific! The owners are so friendly!“

“Amazing food and super friendly staff. Definitely a hidden gem in the city. Everything was cooked fresh and portions were great, we had a ton of leftovers. Feels like you’re invited to someone’s house for a great home cooked meal. Price is really great too.“

“I found Bhoomi on Dwell Social App and they deliver to Drop points. Do I was never in the restaurant. It is definitely modern and I usually eat more traditional restaurants or home cooking from the kitchen of my Indian friends. This was absolute amazing.I had the phulka rotis(with steak and chicken) , the bhoomi chicken tikka Marsala and the chicken pasty. It was absolutely amazing The food was perfect. They packaged it perfectly with reheating instructions For the philharmonic rotis they included all the topping and sauces so you can spice it up or down. Fabulous. I only wish I had taken a photo before devouring it. I would given them 5 stars“

“I find Ragoli Kabob to be excellent!! I am a local of the area and my gf and I head there very often to get some authentic and fresh Indian cuisine. I am also always very pleased with the service. The food comes quickly and the servers are very friendly. I will be returning time and time again!“

“This is a one of a kind "fast food" restaurant. I like to think of it as the Chipotle of Indian food. I had the chicken tikka wrap. They have standard Indian curry dishes, both meat and vegetarian curries, and they wrap them up in a pita-like bread. It's like an Indian burrito. Everything is a la carte, but if you get the house made chips (I think they're plantain chips, but I'm not sure), they give you this awesome sweet and spicy ketchup dipping sauce. If you love Indian food but don't have the time or money for a full service Indian restaurant, definitely try this place out!“

“We had an absolutely delicious dinner enjoyed by our whole family. Chicken curry. Vindalo shrimp. Naan. Veggie samosas. I would love to eat here again.“

“This was one of my favorite dinner spots on my recent visit to Chicago - absolutely delicious food, a great ambiance & highly attentive service. Be sure to order the chili cheese kulcha & the Pink City cocktail!“

“Food is delicious, but for a comfortable place for women to walk in to even pickup orders. You have men’s staring at you or you see smokers right by the door. They should have a better way to everyone feels comfortable and grow their business“

“Vibrant, thoughtful, and delicious! My mom and I had such a fun time eating at Mirra. We had never tried Mexican-Indian food before, and now we can't wait to try the rest of the menu! All the dishes were creative, with well-balanced flavors, textures, and fresh ingredients. We enjoyed both vegetarian and meat/fish dishes, and the wine, mocktails, and desserts were wonderful as well. Our favorites were the squash, sopecitos, and the natilla. Our server, Eddie, was very attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable; he went out of his way to introduce us to one of the chefs/owners, Rishi, who was such a pleasure to talk to and learn from about the restaurant. One of the most memorable and exciting meals we've had in a while! We hope to come back very soon.“

“Great food, quick service. Spicy means spicy“

“Stopped by and tried the Hyderabadi style shawarma and it really hit the spot. The flavor took me straight back home. It’s not your typical shawarma, the spices and taste feel authentic and homemade. The meat was juicy and everything was fresh. Definitely one of the best shawarmas I’ve had around here.“

“I dined in very clean and soft music playing. I enjoyed my ice tea and chicken Tikka wrap. I will be going back on another Friday soon. I also ordered a to go bowl chicken Tikka with rice, cabbage mixed with onions and different sauces. 122 N Wells street, they have two more locations plese goggle and Go enjoy soon.“
