39 Best Indian Restaurants near Franklin Park

“Amazing“

“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!“

“Some of the most delicious indian food I have ever eaten. The paneer literally melts in your mouth- perfect texture and moisture. I ordered Paneer Tikka Masala, Palak Paneer, Garlic Naan and Plain Rice and honestly everything was incredible. 5 Stars for quality of food. Atmosphere is not that of an overly fancy restaurant, if thats what you're looking for. It was a quiet week day and service was good.“

“Every time we've visited Maharaj Indian Grill, whether dining in or carryout, the staff have been friendly and the food, well, very tasty! We'd recommend this restaurant to everybody.“

“Highly recommended, great experience and one of the best part was the had CHEESE BUTTER MASALA, which is one the favorite.“

“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.“

“Loved the ambiance here, it feels really cozy and welcoming. The staff are super friendly and helpful, which makes the experience even better. The food quality is top-notch and everything is served in a very hygienic way. Best part – the dishes have those real, authentic flavours that you don’t find everywhere. Definitely a place worth visiting again“

“Phenomenal! My tastebuds exploded with pure joy from the well balanced spices! Spices we’ve never had amazed my family! 1000% recommended! Kelly was an outstanding Server!!“

“This has to be the best Indian Restaurant i’ve had. The service and food was exceptional, thanks to Ricky. Everyone there was so polite and welcoming.“

“We were looking for a place to dine-in around the area. This place caught my eye! We are glad we ended up going here! Large variety of Indian themed pizzas! Loved them all! The beverage menu was great too! They got a Mexican ice-cream place over there too! Huge quantity and top customer service was served! We plan to visit back if we are in the area!“

“It is really good good with good quantity Very friendly staff and good at explaining their menu Must try“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I had an excellent experience at Tandoori Restaurant! The food was full of authentic Pakistani flavor — especially the biryani, tandoori chicken, and Irani chai. Everything tasted fresh and was perfectly cooked. The staff were polite, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed.

The restaurant was clean, cozy, and welcoming — you can tell they really care about quality and customer satisfaction. The prices are very reasonable for the portion sizes, and the presentation was great too.

Definitely one of the best spots in the area for real Pakistani cuisine. Highly recommend to anyone craving flavorful food and warm service!“

“I’m so glad my friend recommended Zaika! The food was absolutely amazing—delicious, authentic, and full of rich flavors. Their dal has a comforting, homely taste, and the thin chapatis are just perfect. The lamb and goat curry were both outstanding—tender, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. On top of that, the prices are surprisingly low for the quality and quantity of food they serve. It’s rare to find such authentic Indian cuisine at such an affordable price. Highly recommend!!!“

“So far I’ve eaten at Vasco’s twice with my coworker. The food is delicious. It is perfectly spiced, chicken is cooked to perfection and not dry. The garlic sauce is very tasty. It is very clean. The people working there are extremely nice and helpful. My coworker doesn’t know much about Indian food so she had a lot of questions. They were patient and answered all of the. The owner came to our table both times we were there to ask how things were. It is a place that you order at the counter and they bring it to your table. We are already planning our next visit.“

“The spinach dosas are very good.“

“Fantastic food Great service. I had called the restaurant about handicap accomodations. He kept a table that made me sit comfortably. Vinod owns the restaurant. He treats everyone with kindness. Will go again. Mrs.B?“

“It was our first time visiting this restaurant, and we went with some friends who were back in town and eager to revisit one of their old favorites. We’re so glad they introduced us to it.

We started with vegetable pakoras and samosas — the pakoras were decent, but the samosas really stood out. They were fresh, flavorful, and clearly made from scratch , definitely not the frozen kind.

For our mains, my husband had the Karahi Gosht and I ordered the Seekh Kabob, along with mango lassis to drink. Both dishes were excellent — full of flavor yet perfectly mild, which was a pleasant surprise since we both have a low spice tolerance.

We finished with the badami sheer, which was just the right level of sweetness and absolutely delicious.

Overall, the food, service, and ambiance were all fantastic. We’ll definitely be back.“

“This Lous was built on the concept of turning customers. Was there during lunch and it was at most 1/2,full. Sadly, it was almost impossible to have a conversation as the noise in the restaurant was ridiculous. Sooooo noisy people leave to hear themselves. This is a carry out only location...unless you bring megaphones for everyone to use at your table“

“Very laid back and low lit environment. Great place to have a nice conversation without any noise pollution. This place is 25+ years strong for a reason. The staff is very kind and considerate. They will help you load up your order into your car and this is also a great place to cater your next event.“

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

“Everything about JK is good!“

“Good food. Excellent Service. Enjoyed Prabhu's personal attention. Visit again soon, Recommend to my friends.“

“The food at Biryani point is absolutely delicious! Every dish is cooked with authentic flavors and the quality is outstanding. I especially loved the Mutton Fry– it’s a perfect combination of items that gives you a taste of everything, and each bite was flavorful and fresh. The service was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was welcoming. Definitely one of the best places for biryani and traditional dishes. Highly recommended!“

“Delicious food. Wonderful lunch menu. Thank you!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 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.“

“Does not make any sense that Dosa is a breakfast food but Dosa point doesn’t open until lunch time. I always crave it in the morning but waiting until 12:30 to have it for lunch is a buzz kill. Please consider changing the hours to open at a regular time like 10 am!“

“We celebrated a college graduation and had a wonderful meal including a great chocolate cake. Tamer, our waiter checked on us to make sure we had everything we needed. Very friendly. The food was hot and the grilled meat platter was tasty, took extras home. 😊“

“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!“

“Great Experience!!!! Decent sized portions at a decent price and the staff was very respectful and friendly!!!! I will definitely put it on my agenda to go back even if I have to make special 2 hour trips from my house a couple times per year for that experience!!!! For many years in the early 1990’s I worked at Moti Mahal on Belmont for the Sikand family and while I have never found any Restaurants Chicken Makani as good as ours was when cooked by Chef Nano but Trilokah put a different spin on their version with a sauce probably not as sweet but while watching ones sugar that is good and this version had so much meat and I Loved That in an era currently where many restaurants try to cheat you on meat and add extra vegetables - I actually got a dish better than what I had hoped for! Just Awesome!!!!“

“I had dinner with my friends and it was also my first time trying Indian food. Rice was refilled and the chicken was well cooked , also the sauce was delicious. I got the Tikka Masala chicken and also the Garlic Pita , you can deep the pita in the sauce.. delicious 🤤

I recommend this place 100%“

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

“Very delicious tacos, mango lassi, chicken spring rolls!“

“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!“

“Food is fire. Tasted the same as the one in chicago. Obviously a place like this isn't known for their service or dining experience. You go for the food. Their paratha rolls were just like the chicago location. Maybe less spicy, but jut as flavorful. I even had an edit on my order that they got right (which you really cant expect at a place like this).

I wouldn't recommend to dine in, and you likely need to understand what you are ordering ahead of time so you dont buy something they dont specialize (some things are better than others thats how it goes)“

“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.“

“Really good chicken tikka masala, I asked for naan, he said they didn't have it but they had roti??? I think that's the name. I said ok sure.
It is thinner than naan but really good. Great customer service. There is no dine in at all, only take out. Inside is ok, not much going on.
Will come back & will remember to ask to make it spicier. I didn't know you could choose the level of spicy.“

“love this place its like family for me now from day one! alhamdulillah may allah swt increase thr rizq tremendously!“

“A halal Indo Pak restaurant in Villa park area. We had dinner there and food is average. I felt the price is higher with the food quality and quantity. The restaurant has wide variety of menu and most were available. It’s a very good place for big groups and parties as well. Staffs were friendly
