Pakistani Restaurants near Oak Park, IL

“Wonderful food & service!“

“Highly recommend! Good food that 3 generations of Desi immigrants approve of, from those born in colonial India, to post partition Pakistanis, to American-Born little ones. Suits all palates.

All food was good but saag paneer in particular was the bomb. So was nihari (authentic!). Elachi chai was great , too. Very clean, down to the bathroom. Kind service.“

“Well this was my first experience in spinzer restaurant and I really enjoyed their food they have some very authentic signature dishes will visit again whenever will get a chance.“

“Stopped by Hot N' Spicy Chicago on Devon Ave for a late-night bite and was impressed. Grabbed the Chicken Chutney Roll—tender chicken wrapped in a soft paratha with a tangy chutney kick. Also tried the Masala Fries, which were crispy and packed with flavor. The staff was friendly, and the place had a cozy vibe. If you're in the area and craving a flavorful halal meal, this spot is worth checking out. Definitely coming back to try more of their menu.“

“Tried the authentic Hyderabadi Haleem at Tabaq Restaurant in Chicago, it was next level! Properly slow-cooked, rich, and packed with that real Hyderabad ka taste. The texture was smooth, meat perfectly blended, and the fried onions and lemon on top took it to another level. Masala balance was just perfect. If you’re craving true Hyderabad-style Haleem in Chicago close to downtown, this spot is a must try. Definitely going back again!“

I tried Tala gosht, allo Qeema, and Aaloo Palak.... everything was awesome. And he has a good list of vegi choices too. Definitely going back.“

“The BEST MUTTON BIRIYANI you can find in the greater Chicago area! I’ve tried so many restaurants, but none have matched this flavor and taste. It’s my go-to spot for mutton biryani.

However, the remaining dishes were always disappointing.“

“Mutton biryani is fantastic, among other favorites on a huge and extensive menu! Super efficient, family friendly, and gentle on the pocket too.“

“The food never disappoints. Been a customer for years!“

“I had a wonderful experience with Tahoora Sweets! The packaging was excellent, everything arrived fresh and beautifully presented. The taste was absolutely amazing—authentic and delicious. Shipping was smooth and right on time, and the overall quality exceeded my expectations.

I ordered laddoos for my daughter’s Nikah, and they were a big hit with everyone. I would highly recommend Tahoora Sweets, especially for anyone ordering from College Station, Texas.“

“We were staying in Downtown Chicago, and were craving some good halwa puri, nihari and some good Pakistani chai. This restaurant had it all. I honestly was hesitant to come here because we saw there was a couple of 1 star ratings but I am so glad I opened google and read the one star. People are so ignoring that they gave this business a 1 star because they didn’t want to pay for their yogurt. I would give this restaurant 6 star overall. The halwa puri was amazing, and the nihari tasted great! So glad we checked it out! Definitely a gem in the Chicago downtown!“

“I love Ghareeb Nawaz. I used to go all the time when I went to UIC, and it slaps every single time. I was craving butter chicken, so I ordered for “dine-in”, and they were so generous with the portions. The food came out super quickly too, and the guy behind the counter was really nice.

I also got a potato samosa, which was absolutely massive, and it paired so well with the white sauce. The mango lassi was creamy and refreshing, and it balanced out the meal perfectly. Honestly, the leftovers might’ve hit even harder; I reheated everything later and it was still just as good.

Comfort food, huge portions, fast service, and consistently delicious. I love Ghareeb.“

“Highly recommend trying out some North Indian dishes here. Their Bihari Kebab wrap is my personal favorite. Also their Dal with the garlic garnish is a must try. The service is fantastic with people smiling and ensuring we’re treated the best! Overall, a great place!“
