The Scene
Lunch hour office cliques and weary Mag Mile shoppers drift into this second-floor restaurant for a quick and inexpensive bite to eat. An inconspicuous entry makes the place easy to miss, but once inside, diners are… Read Full Editorial
My Review by John via GrubHub on 7/12/2014
Why can't I put no stars on this. Food wasn't flavorful. Very big let down.
Redemption of Shiva by Texas Tyke via Citysearch on 4/9/2011
I must have been an Indian in a previous life, as I really love this cuisine. Visited plenty of Indian restaurants on four continents and this one wasn't half bad for a US location.\r

Naans were a bit fluffy for my liking but the buffet…
pathetic service by jabster23 via Citysearch on 7/23/2010
Let me first confess, I am or rather was a regular to this restaurant. The owner Mrs. Anju Sharma knows me personally. Even after all this I was served stale pakoras, which were so darn stinky that even waiter held it 4 ft away from his…
Awesome food. Good price. Great Variety. by zjack via Citysearch on 6/7/2009
Undoubtedly, the best Indian Restaurant in Chicago Downtown area. Better than India House in terms of ambiance and good hosts :)
Lots of variety in curries and Naan (bread). Can order No Spicy, medium Spicy and very spicy food (many people…
Excellent Food! by xrajiv via Citysearch on 6/7/2009
Indian Garden is my favorite restaurant in downtown Chicago just because of the food quality and authentic taste. Ambiance and service is great but I don't get a chance to go there as often as I order-in. In fact having eaten in some of…
Not for the true Indian by Traveler01 via Citysearch on 3/23/2009
The restaurant was nicely decorated in Indian design but the food was lacking in Indian spices. Food was very bland. I asked waiter to make my food extra spicy and was told they could not do this. A true Indian restaurant would do with…
Good food and prices. Not great service by flowersbt1900 via Citysearch on 10/25/2008
I like their food so I go there when I am downtown. The service seems to be not very good when I am there so I am only giving 3-star. It is still worth eating there.
Great place by velvetgreen via Citysearch on 5/7/2008
It was a place with very good ambience and good service. The food reminded me of real indian dish. I've been there a couple of times before. We had a party on this place last month or so and it turned out to be excellent. The food was very…
service issues by linda B via Insider Pages on 4/14/2008
I used to love this place but have had some unfortunate experiences with the wait staff and will not be back. The food was generally good, but the last time I was there, the restaurant was not particularly busy but it took almost half an…
Great Food Excellent Ambiance by 6000 via Citysearch on 3/8/2008
This restaurant was recommended by the Manager at John Hancock tower and we are so pleased that I had to comeback and write something about it. The food is far far better than any other Indian restaurant I have visited in Chicago,and on…
Horrible service, poor value! by mfin via Citysearch on 2/16/2008
While the food is just ok, the worst thing regarding Indian Garden is their delivery and poor service. Worse, the restaurant is down to the level of cheating its customers. I order two entrees for around 15 dollars apiece (20 with tax…
Food's great, but... by medraj via Citysearch on 2/16/2008
... I wish the experience was better. Let's be frank... a restaurant needs to have good food AND courtesy.\r
My story: \r
I placed a phone order for take out. They said "no problem." Then I called back to confirm and a different person…
lousy service by vikram2101 via Citysearch on 7/3/2007
The ambiance is quite well done. That's the only thing that they have gotten right here at the Indian Garden.\r

The food is mediocre at best. Quite far from authentic Indian food. Klay Oven, located just a few miles away is way better…
Our favorite neighborhood restaurant by olivshin via Citysearch on 2/9/2007
Tasty food, and warm and relaxing ambience. Really nice waiters. A nice set of little dipping sauces. A cute view of the street. We've gone there about ten times now (with our families and friends, too), and I've only had a minor…
Go Elsewhere! by cityluv via Citysearch on 10/14/2006
The language challenged serving staff was very rude. They took a long time getting our food. The waitstaff looked very overworked. No one came by after the server very rudely dropped off our dinner. Me and my girlfriend were completely…
Indian Food by Monica R. via Judy's Book on 3/15/2006
This is a great place to get authentic Indian food in the city. This place has a really nice ambiance and an even better food. My advice: stick to their buffet. You will get a good assortment of food in that and everything is always fresh…
Indian Food by M. A. via Judy's Book on 2/19/2006
This is a good option if you are in the mood for some good, authentic Indian food. The restaurant is really nice and very well kept. The atmosphere is very nice and the service is wonderful here. They have a huge menu and everything on it…
Good Indian Buffet by Jean A. via Judy's Book on 12/14/2005
The buffet is pretty extensive and food is really fresh. During lunch hour, you get a lot of traffic from the medical staff and students from the nearby Northwestern Hospital. It is located on the second floor. Parking... either you…
Good food by cheenu s. via Judy's Book on 8/26/2005
Creativity and color distinguish Indian Garden from the rest of the ethnic pack. Chef Ganga Rawat substitutes corn oil for traditional fat and creates gravy-based dishes with vegetables and spices rather than oils. Unusual dishes from the…
Indian Food by roshan b. via Judy's Book on 7/26/2005
The Indian Garden Restraunt is one of the few places you can get a great tasting Indian meal downtown. They are at a great location, admist all the shopping and busniess centers. The food here is really great. What I like best about this…
