Oldest restaurant in Chicago city. One of a kind chicken tikka masala, and best tandoori chicken, samosa, and curry in whole Chicagoland area. Sag (spinach) paneer (cheese), and made all in fat free oil. When you eat inside, you can see outside a nice view. i'm a customer for 10 years of this restaurant. I have gone to many restaurants, but this restaurant is the best by far. All of this in a very reasonable price. Cheapest priced food in all of Devon area.

• Pros: delcious food and service
• Cons: Only 61 people seating

In Short
This casual space has a modest, banquet-room feel, but the budget-conscious crowd doesn't mind. A popular and inexpensive lunch buffet offers old standbys like naan (flatbread), spiced lamb, lentils and veggie curries. Ordering off the menu is nearly as cheap. Any charcoal-flavored item from the tandoor oven is a good bet. Unusal alu mutter, a "mild" potato and pea concoction, hits the tongue like sweet citrus, but by the back of the throat it's lips-on-fire, nose-running hot.
