“I ordered out and had a great experience. I was greeted by multiple friendly staff members, and provided my order promptly. The samosas were high quality and filled to perfection, the naan was the perfect compliment to the entree, and the butter chicken was so flavorful. You can also adjust spice level on other dishes. Definitely coming back again!“

“We went here for lunch on a Saturday, It wasn’t busy at all, but don’t let that fool you these people know how to cook Indian food. I am a big foodie and I can appreciate when it’s cooked right. Even the rice I can tell is cooked with filtered water. We had the Chicken, curry, and Paalak Paneer with vegetable samosas, everything including the sauce, the appetizers came with was excellent, including the Garlic naan. I Highly recommend this place including the mango lassi, Yum!“

“So good. Delicious, tasty and all kinds of yummy. Everybody at the restaurant was so nice and generous. I highly recommend this place. We come to the area once a year from Canada and I think we’ll have to make this an annual dinner.“

“Came her for a business dinner from a friend’s recommendation and let me tell you, the food was delicious!

We were here for about two hours and tried many items the server recommended. Everything was delicious, but the best was the Tangri Kebab (chicken). The most flavorful chicken appetizer I’ve ever had at an Indian restaurant!

They also offer catering so I hope to order from here in the future. Can’t wait to come back to dine in!“

“Amazing new Indian restaurant! The chicken tikka appetizer was the best I’ve ever had—juicy, flavorful, and perfectly charred. All entrees were delicious, with the bhindi masala being a standout surprise full of fresh flavor. We did takeout this time but can’t wait to dine in soon. Highly recommend!

“1st time there, food was delicious 😋 friendly staff. reasonable prices. keep up with good work 👏“

“Kama Bistro is the best Indian restaurant, hands down! I can't believe they are so low on your list (even after Blueberry Cafe, no offense Blueberry!). Whenever we've eaten at Kama, we are always so happy that we did. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Highly, highly recommend.“

“Ambience, and service was good. Mixed reactions for food (4 stars) - seekh kebabs were undercooked and they couldn't get that right even after sending it back. Biryani was ok too. Pani puri was perfect. Noodles, samosa chat, baos and the chettinad curry were nice. It's not your typical Indian restaurant, the menu is different, so for a first time visit, it was a great experience.“

“Need someone educated staff , who can understand business and customer
Service , food is really fabulous but staff is killing your business , you loss your client straight up when the front desk are not attentive to client specially the guy name jaswant , need more English speaking staff . However , the food was amazing top notch .“

“We called for a last minute reservation in which they where able to accommodate us right away and gives us a table for a large party even though they were busy trying to keep up the orders while being understaffed. The food was amazing as always and the server Deep was very patient and understanding with us. He took his time explaining the dishes and complied which each of our demands with a smile on his face. Would definitely recommend coming here again and to everyone else.“

“India Palace is the best restaurant in the world!!!! Our whole family loves it and we love going there!!!!!!!!!! You should go there for dinner and dessert!!!!!!!!!!!“

“We were in the far east room that has the rolling open doors for in the summertime. Apparently the heat was not working in this room. They didn't mention anything to us when we were seated. As it got cooler and cooler after we took our coats off, we realized other people were eating with their coats on. We asked if we could be moved to another area of the restaurant where it was warmer and we were told we would have to wait for a table to become available (even though there were open tables). We ended up eating with our coats on too. Not the best situation!“

“Amazing jalebi and manchurian!! Must try!!“

“I recommend everything, their food is delicious!!!“

“delicious ♡♡♡♡ loved it all!“

“I tried Vasco’s Peri Peri for lunch and was blown away by the Two Tenders Rice Bowl. Tons of flavor, generous portions, and the chicken was cooked perfectly. It’s hard to beat a fresh, hot meal like this for under $11. Perfect quick lunch option Monday through Friday!“

“THE BEST Indian food Experience in CHICAGO.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An absolute gem in Villa Park! Hyderabad House is hands-down one of the best dining experiences I’ve had. Every single dish we tried was incredible — the butter chicken was rich and flavorful, the naan was perfectly soft and warm, and the veggie samosas had the perfect crunch with a beautifully spiced filling. I’m still dreaming about the Dahi puri, which was an explosion of textures and flavors, and the chicken 65 roll might be the best I’ve ever had. The seasoning on everything was spot on — bold, aromatic, and just the right amount of heat. The service was attentive and thoughtful, and we felt genuinely cared for from the moment we walked in. A special shoutout to the owner Bella, who was such a delight to talk to — her passion for great food and hospitality really shines through. If you’re anywhere near Villa Park, run — don’t walk — to Hyderabad House. This place is a must-try for anyone who loves authentic Indian/Pakistani cuisine done right.“

“The best Indian food I ever had at US. The chicken biriyani was just above average (definitely tastes different than any other Indian restaurant), but the Masala Dosa was mind-blowing.
Price reasonable. We will again if we go again. Above all, all of their food is halal.“

“Absolutely loved the dosa and idli here! The dosa was perfectly crisp, and the idlis were soft and fluffy. The chutneys and sambar were so flavorful and satisfying. The owner was incredibly kind and welcoming, and the place is spotless. Highly recommend for authentic South Indian comfort food served with a smile!“

“Dined in with my family of 4 and the atmosphere felt cozy and welcoming. But the best part was the food!!! Very hearty, delicious, and flavorful!! We had the platter, with garlic naan, and butter chicken. All super good. I also enjoyed a Mango Lassi, it felt just right not too fattening but with a very light hearty and flavorful taste! THANK YOU“

“I had my son’s birthday party at Tandoori this weekend. It was the best choice to host my 45 guests at this restaurant. I ll tell you why.

1. I had decided to do the decor myself. The manager, Sahir was really, really kind to let me come a day before to put up all the decor stuff. He was very cooperative, and the staff present around was nice too. I was very conscious, given it was my son’s first bday, and my first time ever to do decor. But it turned out so good, and i must give credit to the manager who made it easier for me. I could never do it the same day the party was.
2. Our server, Rania, she did an amazing job. She helped with deciding the menu, she served everything in a perfect manner, time wise, arrangement wise. She was super easy to talk to. She helped with the cake as well. Rania, thank you.
3. Food… second to none. We had butter chicken, and mix platters. Everything was so so so delicious. Cooked to perfection. Our guests loved the food. From salad and hummus to bbq and gravy, everything was super yummy.

The restaurant made my son’s event memorable for life. I can’t thank them enough.“

“very nice people. immaculate. modern decor. astonishing food. many dishes. extremely authentic. completely delicious. perfectly fresh. Everything made from scratch. highly, highly recommended!“

“shahi biryani-bolingbrook. no mirchi no namak , ordered today goat biryani family pack and kadai chicken. it looks there is difference in glendale heights and bolingbrook. biryani should be little more spicy but it was not.“

“The food here is amazing! I had the chicken tikka wrap, fries, and chai, and everything was absolutely delicious. The portions were generous, the prices were fair, and the quality was top-notch. Highly recommend this place!
Will definitely be back!“

“I took a good surprise by choosing to eat from Ghareeb Nawaz. The guy that helped me at the register was really kind and took the time to help me choose my food. And the best of all was the food, cooked to perfection, rice tasty. Accompanied with lamb and vegetables. A must-try of the region.“

“Delicious, fresh, and fast! Lots of vegetarian/ vegan options and fantastic value!“

“We had brunch at Shahi and it was a get together of almost 75 ladies. the quality of food , taste and service was out of this world. just the Chinese noodles were extra spicy but rest was 5/5. I love the decor, taste and hospitality since the owner Rahila Al Karim took over.“

“Excellent food, specially Halwa Puri.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Outstanding experience at Shahi Nihari & Chopsticks!

We recently hosted our team outing for around 50 people, and everything—from parking accessibility to private dining arrangements—was extremely well managed and stress-free.

The food was absolutely amazing. Our menu included nihari, chicken tikka boti, veg Hakka noodles, garlic chicken in sauce, chicken biryani, along with tea and accompaniments, and every single dish was flavorful, fresh, and perfectly prepared. The variety worked beautifully for a mixed crowd, and the quality was consistent across all items.

The staff was courteous, attentive, and very accommodating for a group of our size, which made the entire experience smooth and enjoyable. The private dining setup was ideal for team bonding and conversations.

Overall, everything was perfect—great food, great service, and a great atmosphere. Highly recommended for team dinners, group events, or family gatherings. We’ll definitely be coming back!“
