45 Best Indian Restaurants near Villa Park

“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. 😊“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 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.“

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

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
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!“

“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!“

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

“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.“

“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.“

“The food and service was great! I had no idea the location moved, so I was a little confused at first when I pulled up to spice mart, but it’s right next to the spice mart. The butter chicken, garlic naan, and chicken Manchurian were divine! I have not found good chicken Manchurian in a WHILE! Definitely will come back! Just was confused that it was dead quiet when we walked in so we had to request they turn music on, which was a little odd. But the owner let us know that the person who runs the music wasn’t on staff that day which was why it was quiet and he tried to fix it which I appreciated so much.“

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

“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!

“The food is amazing, the drinks are inventive and delicious and the service is always polite, prompt and friendly. 😋“

“This is the absolute BEST Indian cuisine in the Midwest. They’ve been in business for 30 years, and you can taste it in the flavors of their recipes. My husband and I are regulars here…the consistency of quality and taste, along with great attention to detail and customer service keeps us going back often!“

“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.“

“Awesome food, the staff was very kind and considerate of dietary restrictions (allergies), and the service was great as well. Highly recommend the paneer tikka kebab, which was suggested to me by the staff!

Vegetarian options: Many vegetarian options at this restaurant, an entire section of the menu is devoted to vegetarian food. I personally had paper dosa and paneer tikka, both of which are vegetarian.

Dietary restrictions: I have nut and sesame allergies, and the staff was very considerate of these issues.“

“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 .“

“This is by far the best Indian restaurant with the best food and service I’ve ever been to. I am a loyal customer and I live near Devon’s India town. We have had many dishes off of the menu and every one of them was absolutely top notch. What’s even better is that they are extremely fair priced and always treat us like welcome guests in their home. Try this place. You won’t regret it.“

“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.“

“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!!!!!!!!!!!“

“The staff was wonderful - super nice, attentive, helpful...an excellent experience. It was relatively quiet when we went (Wednesday lunch), so there was no wait. Deep dish does take about 30 minutes, so be prepared for a bit of a wait, but they have appetizers, salads, and other items that you can order while you wait. The Margherita Pesto pizza was delicious, as was the Classic sausage.“

“The spinach dosas are very good.“

“delicious ♡♡♡♡ loved it all!“

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

“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.“

“The food is fresh and tasty.“

“The food is simply delicious, best Rogan Josh that I have tasted so far and I have had it all over the US and around the world. Large menu with variety of choices in veg and non-veg dishes, excellent service, and loved the ambiance and the way the restaurant is furnished. Must try the non-veg thali!“

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

“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“

“Awesome Food great service!“

“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 tried the Natukodi Curry with Paratha (weekend special) was delicious. Also had Mutton Fry, Paneer Biryani, and their Mirchi Bajji all fresh and tasty. Portions are good, regular size can easily serve two, they also have single if you are light eater. Staff is friendly and the food is great overall.

I would have given 5 stars, but sometimes the biryanis aren’t as fresh. If they were more consistent, this would definitely be a 5 star place“

“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!“

“Excellent taste!“

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

“The food is fresh and tasty.“

“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 .“

“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)“

“Sonya is wonderful. Come in for good food and cheap beer!!“

“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.“

“Everything was so delicious and yummy. My wife and I went to kolachi from wisconsin just to eat the best briyani and haleem. As always, I have the best experience.“
