Best Indian Restaurants in Downtown / Loop

Overall we loved the whole experience. Eat a bunch of small plates to create our own tasting experience. The biggest issue was the cocktail menu. We felt the descriptions over promised and under delivered. The cocktails were just “meh”.

Great experience going here! Loved the twist on all of the food and we really appreciated the diversity of the dishes. There were a few things that could be better. As an Indian person, chai is important. The flavor was there but it was too sweet! We’d love to see the chai unsweetened in the future so it can be customized. The biryani was also great but the texture and infusion of flavors could use some improvement! Other than that, service, ambiance and good were great!

The food was great, service was excellent too. But very irresponsible of the management to not post anything on their website that there will NOT be a Bollywood DJ night on Valentine’s Day when they specify that Friday’s and Saturday’s are DJ nights on their website. That is misleading information! We reserved a late table to experience the Bollywood music only to find out that they won’t do that on Valentine’s Day which was on a Friday! Also, the management needs to better prepare of train their front desk staff who attends calls and makes reservations. She was rude, she didn’t bother to get the entrance area cleaned by someone when I told her that the floor so slippery from all the snow and muck that people bring in. The restaurant needs to be more respectful and responsible to the customers who decide not to cancel their reservation when the weather is so bad.

As always this is our go to Indian in Chicago. Attentive staff and excellent food. Thank you!!

Awesome service, scrumptious food and nice ambience. This was our first time to India House and it did not disappoint us. We had Tava Paneer, Chicken Reshmi Kababa, Malai Kofta, Kadhai Lamb, Manchow soup, Hawkers noodles, cheese naan, garlic naan, gajar halwa, saffron cheese cake. We enjoyed it a lot and definitely will visit again.
