14 Best Indian Restaurants near Lake Zurich

“I was looking for an Indian food place nearby and The Masala Order popped up. It's in an industrial park and I couldn't picture it, but it's there! We got lucky that it was open when we wanted to eat. The owner/cook Steve is the nicest guy ever and boy can he make delicious chicken tikka. Good portion so I had lunch for the next day, too. What's even better is I can ride my bike there so if my car is busted or out of gas, I can still go. The sign outside says "The Lake Zurich Community Kitchen" so be aware of that. The mint chutney was watery, but maybe that's a regional thing. It was still very good. Will have to try other stuff. I highly recommend this place.“

“One of our new favorite places! We realized we didn't have a local Indian resturant in our regular rotation and decided to begin the hunt. Thankfully we found India Foodie Lounge and it was love at first sight. As long as they'll have us we'll be customers for life!“

“Had a fabulous meal at Flame India (Libertyville location) tonite. Had the chicken & cilantro samosa for appetizer & for my main dish butter chicken & chili cheese naan. Our server Peter was very nice & attentive. I cant wait to come back again!“

“Delicious food with great service. Never disappoint and taste is always good. Had catering also few times and taste/quantity was good. We are vegetarian so can't comment on NonVeg but as mentioned, All Veg options are great. The only 1 thing that needs to be corrected is Naan.Vegetarian options: Soya chap“

“Tasty choices of full plates and sampler bits. The spice blends are wonderful. We enjoyed the vegetarian items. The Saag with paneer was so fresh, yum. The beverages are refreshing: both nonalcoholic and ones with liquor.Vegetarian options: Plenty of choices“

“Must try Indian place in Arlington Heights! Highly recommend it. Chicken dum biryani, Gobi 65, tandoori chicken, chicken sukka (with parotta) and chicken noodles are my favorites! Kids favorite place to go on Thursdays for Dosa night. Best chutney I had around this place. Bring your own bottle, relax and enjoy the dish!“

“I'm a novice when it comes to Indian food. I have had some very bad Indian food. But this was excellent. So good. So flavorful. Excellent rice. The waiter recommended the chicken tiki masala and lamb Josh Rogan. Both were so delicious. It's BYOB. So bring your own wine. But definitely try it. Naan was excellent.“

“This place does an excellent job with Indian food; very, very worthwhile to venture here for some incredible food. The staff are friendly and always smiling, the food could impress Gordon Ramsay, and the restaurant itself is always kept in exceptional condition. The vegetable jalfraize sauce and lamb Tikka Masada are unmatched by other restaurants; experience a new favorite place to sit down with the fam at this restaurant. 11/10“

“My friend and I are always on the hunt for good Indian food and we know we’ll be back to ClayOven soon!We asked for 2 recommendations and our server did not disappoint. We had one chicken and one lamb dish, samosas, and enough garlic naan to kill us.The food was delicious, the staff friendly & helpful, and the restaurant clean & welcoming.“

“I got the chicken masala and butter chicken. The masala was very delicious! Seasoned perfectly and tasted so good. The butter chicken was in a sweet sauce and i personally wasn’t as big of a fan but if you like sweeter sauces instead of spicy it is great! Ali is very nice and assisted very well at helping me pick out some of his favorites. Definitely will be coming back!Kid-friendliness: Ali was very nice to a young boy that came in and was excited for his food. He’s a very nice man!“

“Asli Dilli da Khaana.If you Blind-tasted the menu, you would pay atleast double.Hands down the best Indian food there is!!I once went there about 10 years back. Been going back there ever since.No one makes a fresher Chaat than them.Veg Biryanis are pretty abysmal universally. But this place changed that. I go back just for it.The Butter Chicken and the Malai Kofta are stand outs..Worth the drive to Palatine. One of the few gatekeepers of Indian Cuisine.Vegetarian options: The Best Indian food by a long mile.“

“Paneer 65 was okay since lacked onion and capsicum. But biryani reminded me the quality and taste back home in India. Extremely soft meat, good quality rice, right amount spices and good raita. The waitress suggested to order mild since medium would be spicy for us. Only drawback is that they ask party of 2 in weird sofa and chair combo only. They need to relook at it. Coffee was okay. It wasnt filter coffee listed in menu but tasted normal instant coffee.“

“Came here to say for dosa night with my family. Had to wait in queue for nearly half an hour but was likely crowded because it was Valentine’s Day. Dosa was very good and staff kept checking in on us. Dosa took some time to come out but was delicious and small buffet included had good variety.“

“Hands down the best biriyani place ! I’ve tried in so many restaurants but always end up thinking this is the best. Consistently the taste has been amazing for more than 6 years. Try their biriyani (lamb and chicken dum biriyani) and curry leaf gobi. Absolutely delicious!“
