29 Best Indian Restaurants near Oakbrook Terrace

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

“Lou's still has the best pan pizza and service is always good!! The place is very loud, however; so even with a party of only 4 in a corner booth in the main dining room (which I highly recommend vs the back room), it was often hard to hear what our companions were saying.“

“Amazing food and it tasted awesome .. Would love to visit again .. Staff were very helpful and ambiance was excellent .. 5 stars !!“

“Wonderful, classy yet casual experience! Delicious!!!“

“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.“

“This is one of the best Indian restaurants I have been to. So far out of all the ones in Chicago area I have tried- which have been many, this is the best one. I have been to many Indian restaurants across the country and it is hard to find true, authentic flavors and this place hit the spot. The chicken biryani was flavorful, samosa chaat bursting with flavors, mango lassi was refreshing, and the naan was fluffy and fresh. Will definitely be returning.“

“All the dosa's are fabulous, chicken corn soup is absolutely delicious. the mixed grill, roast mutton, chicken samosas all outstanding.“

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

“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.“

“Nina's was an excellent value, and tasty - a place I will return to or order from in the future for Indian food. I've been enjoying indian food since I was a child in the 70's, and recently my elder greek aunt mentioned she knew about Nina's and wanted to try it. She's in her early 90's and I knew she had concern for flavors and overly hot spices, so I was initially anxious - yet the menu had many clear options and while I can tolerate medium heat in dishes, I was able to discern helpfully which dishes were significantly spiced and also find out if the spice was hot, or simply aromatic in descriptions - she tried the Goat Biryani and requested it not over-spiced. Portions were excellent, both for her dish and the Chicken Tikka Masala which my wife and I requested, which we stated we liked spice for. They accomplished our dishes well all around and accompanied with delicious crisp veg samosas filled with the usual lovely and tender filling - dipping sauces, garlic naan, and complimentry basmati rice with our tikka dishes. The little gulab jamuun donut balls in sweet sauce was a perfect desert at the end.

My aunt's goat biryani was very pleasantly spiced, not hot but still a nice medley of spice that accompanied the large and tasty pieces of goat - which really pleased my greek aunt and though she ate as much as she could, she still sent half of it home with me and my wife AND took some of it home with herself as left overs! As a standby, we orderded normal chai with cream and sugar and it was excellent, but they have a full bar and selections of indian beers and other beverages, as well as western sodas.

The ambiance as some have mentioned may need a little work, but it was nice tables inside, many two tops, but also enough to handle medium parties as well without rearrangement. Quiet inside, we could hear ourself talk and enjoy the gathering - and though some might feel an indian restaruant needs something like lowly played pleasant music -by and large Nina's cooking did the speaking and it would call us back.“

“This is hands down my absolute favorite restaurant in the entire area! The secret to their incredible success is Chef Pramod—his talent and execution are unmatched.
​The Indian fusion menu is brilliant from start to finish. You absolutely must try their fusion drinks; my personal favorites are the Mango Mastani, the Paan drink, and the Guava Rum Punch.
​For food, start with the Bao (both the paneer and fried chicken options are incredible) and the Street Noodles. For the main course, their Thali is a must-try, offering a perfect variety, and you cannot leave without ordering the Lamb Biryani—the baby goat meat is unbelievably tender and packed with flavor.
​Save room for dessert! The Sticky Date Pudding with ice cream is phenomenal, and their Mango and Pistachio Kulfis are the perfect authentic finish. Every single dish is a hit. Highly, highly recommended!“

“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.“

“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!“

“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!!!!!!!!!!!“

“delicious ♡♡♡♡ loved it all!“

“I recently visited Belly Delhi and had lunch there. Being a Tuesday I had to have veg and I must day it did not dissapoint me. Vihaan was very cordial in making me feel comfortable and at the same time he suggested to start with Masala papad which was indeed great. I ordered Schezwan Chilly Fries and Kathal (Jackfruit) Veg biryani which was really delicious. At the end I had Nimbu shikanji (LIme soda ) which was also perfect! Overall I highly recommend this place and do look for Vihaan who really takes care of guests very well.“

“Enjoyed a great meal with tasty food. Service was efficient and well-managed. Staff were welcoming and attentive. Prices were fair and reasonable.“

“Total hole in the wall with amazing food. I was drawn by the potato vadas, which I’d never had - they are like a small samosa only with vada (lentil) dough. We also had mutter paneer and mutton biryani - all delicious. And very friendly service.“

“Awesome Food great service!“

“It was my first time here and the food and service was amazing, will definitely be back“

“The chicken shwarma tacos and spicy beef were outstanding“

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

“Awsome staff. Especially the women that greet you. Took time to explain how dining works. Even offered a tour of the juice bar and homemade bakery including baklava. Food is some of the best middleeastern /indian eats I have ever had in my life..Very clean and plenty of free parking.“

“Great food ! Their Sambar and Puliserry are hundred percent authentic! Apart from the above, their vegetarian thorans are a treat ! I had chance and still enjoying their Koorkai thoran after years .“

“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.“

“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.“

“You go for the food not for the atmosphere. The plates are served fresh and hot and best eaten on the tables provided in the restaurant. They do travel well though. Lots of choices. Portion sizes are not gigantic except for the vegetarian one we got which was rice. Was huge. Great place for a quick lunch or dinner.“

“Absolutely delicious karahi and nihari! The taste was rich, flavorful, and perfectly spiced. The meat was tender, and the portion size was satisfying. Definitely one of the better nihari experiences highly recommended for anyone who loves authentic Pakistani flavors!“
