Indian Grill Restaurant

Traditional Indian cuisine prepared with the utmost care

  • Dine-In
  • Carry-Out
  • Catering

Under Chef Owner Shri Tikka Ram Sharma, Indian Grill brings to your table an irreplaceable experience with Indian cuisine. Each dish is prepared with the utmost care using traditional Indian recipes.

Indian tandoori dishes take their name from a giant, charcoal-fired clay oven--the tandoor. Foods are lowered into the tandoor to cook quickly under intense heat, with results that combine the best of roasting and grilling. Most tandoori foods are marinated in spiced yogurt. You'll find the tandoori dishes wonderfully tender and flavorful, their mild spiciness perfectly contrasted with spicy and sweet chutnies.

Our curry dishes are prepared from classic Indian spices carefully blended and prepared by our head chef.

Editorial Review for Indian Grill Restaurant – by

In Short
Simple white tablecloths and square tables line the rectangular dining room of this friendly Northside Indian restaurant. Diners take advantage of the spot's tandoori oven, ordering sizzling plates of chicken marinated in yogurt and spices, prawns or piping hot naan. Vegetarian dishes include the channa masala, or chickpeas with tomatoes and spices, aloo sag with potatoes and spinach or dal makhani, a spicy lentil dish in a tomato cream sauce.

I think this is the best indian restaurant in the city including on Devon. I am indinan and have eaten in many indian restaurants. The chicken dishes are nicely done and the chicken is not overcooked like in many indian restaurants. It's moist and juicy. We order from this place often and I can't wait every time.

Sorry to disagree with some of the other Reviewers, but we thought this Indian restaurant was subpar at best. Somosa appetizer was admittedly the high point of our meal, but went downhill quickly. The Vegetarian Combo Entree ("Vegetable Bhojan") priced at $14.99 should really be an appetizer as the portion sizes were extremely small. Major dissappointment was the Mutter Paneer - peas tasted right out of the can. The garbonza beans also had a 'canned' off taste, and eggplant dish (Baigan Bharta) was just so-so. As for the meat Combo Entree ("Indian Grill Special) overpriced at $19.99, while portions were ok, we found the chicken a bit off (as others have commented), the roggan josh average, with only our lentil-based Dal Makhani a dish up to par. Inexcusably, half our Naan was burned and the accompanying Rice was bland and clumpy. All in all, we thought the food was overpriced, portions under-sized, and taste well below average. Howver, we would agree with others, that the Service was excellent and friendly. But, while good food can make up for bad service, the reverse is not the case. If you're looking for good Indian Food in the Lincoln Park neighborhood, we highly recommend Radhuni, 3227 N. Clark. (like Indian Grill, its also BYOB).

Pros: Samosa; and Service

Cons: The Food, especially Mutter Paneer, any chicken dish; Veggie Combo, the Prices.
