The food is great and the prices are friendly. I come here at least once a week! I love this place.

Newly opened Indian restaurant in Wicker Park/Humboldt Park area. Indian Paradise has just won the spot of our go-to Indian restaurant in the neighborhood and I'm thrilled to have amazing Indian food nearby. There are so many dishes I want to try on the menu and we'll definitely be back but everything was delicious!! We ordered samosas, butter chicken, lamb masala, herb rice and garlic naan. The butter chicken was tender and the sauce flavorful and mildly spicy, perfect to eat with rice and naan. They recommended the herb rice and wow, it blew me away. It was the perfect accompaniment to the meal and the Garlic naan was the light, buttery and flaky. The lamb masala was a bit spicier but soooo good, love the seasoning. Everything was plated beautifully. The mango lassi was not too thick and tasted like real mango! We'll definitely be back! read more

I literally order from here multiple times in a month :) The vegetable samosa with the sauces are delicious. I've had the Paneer Tikka Masala & Bhindi Masala , while both good ...the paneer tikka masala has soo much flavor, although not much of a spicy dish. Please don't forget the garlic naan! It's affordable and delicious ... one of my favorite places. read more

Went here today with a friend. The food was fresh and tasted great! We had asked for the palak paneer to be made spicy and they did. If you like good Indian food and friendly staff this is definitely a place you should try! read more

New to town and decided to give this place a try because of the positive reviews. For starters, we ordered the keema samosa (non-veg) and gobi manchurian (veg). For entrees, the lamb roganjosh and lamb korma with turmeric rice (enough for 2ppl). We also tried the butter naan and paratha. Everything we ordered was delicious! This will definitely be our go-to Indian restaurant. Takeout seems to be the most popular option, but we chose to dine in. The restaurant looks great, the staff was very friendly, and the food was served hot. For out of town folks, I would say this place is a hidden gem. Definitely rivaled the of Indian food I love so much (from the Bay Area)! read more

Food was on point! It is clear that the chef took care and effort in preparing well balanced dishes. Highly recommend, you won't be disappointed! We had the following dishes - mango lassi (tastes fresh and not processed) - naan (thin and we'll flavored) - kofti maknahi (kofta was on point and the gravy was perfect) - gulab jamun (I hardly ever like this at restaurants, but it tasted home made and fresh at this restaurant) read more

New Indian place in the neighborhood is great! Friendly service, nice, new interior (and bathrooms), and delicious food. The roti and chicken tikka masala were excellent. I was surprised the entrees didn't come with rice, but after looking at the photos I took of the menu, there are separate sections for rice and breads. Luckily the roti paired very well with the chicken & sauce. Will definitely return! read more

I wish I could give this place 6 stars!!! I live right across the street and was so excited for a new place in the neighborhood and could not be more pleased with having Indian Paradise as part of our Wicker Park family. I've been a few times and have had the Butter Chicken, Tikka Masala, garlic naan, mango lassi, gobi manchurian, and chili manchurian. EVERYTHING IS DELICIOUS! Also the owner, Abu, is really cool, funny, and kind and goes out of his way to make sure everyone has a great experience, whether they're dining in or taking out. Welcome to the neighborhood, Indian Paradise!!! read more

I have tried so many Indian places everywhere and this is by FAR the best! Someone recommended this place in a social media group and said it was new, so I gave it a try! I was a bit leery of a new place, but they were 100% spot on. We ordered Paneer, Kadaci Chicken, Aloo Gobi, and Vegetable biryani rice and the chef knows what he/she is doing! The Vegetable Biryani rice is the hands down the best I have ever had!! They had the the most amazing spices and care that I was really impressed! My friends said the exact same thing and said it was really really good! I have eaten Indian food all through out the world and this is absolutely amazing! I am so glad it's nearby, but this is my favorite Indian in all of Chicago! YUP I said it- best place in Chicago! It's wayyyy better than Rooh - Michelin Star Restaurant with more Authentic experience for Indian food! I definitely want to go in person since this was only take out that I did.. I wished they used Metal Aluminum to-go boxes instead of plastic - But otherwise. BRAVO! BRAVO! 5+ Stars read more

Delicious food, friendly service. We had the keema samosas, garlic naan, lamb roganjosh with herbed rice and dal makhani. Absolutely recommend all but the lamb roganjosh was my favorite. (Forgot to take the photo before we dug in!) read more

Indian Paradise - 121. Dal Makhani, 161. Lamb Roganjosh Herb Rice and Garlic Naan - Indian Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Glad to have this place in the neighborhood! Everything was so good & it was interesting to see that they had some unique takes/flavors on common dishes, which was really refreshing! The eggplant and chickpeas were AMAZING. I have never had eggplant (which is one of my favorite things to order at Indian places) like their baingan bharta before. It was nice to have a bunch of rice sides to choose from as well and a ton of appetizers, including vegan ones. Everything was presented very pretty as well. The servers were all really nice and the portions were huge, we had 3 meals worth of leftovers. read more

Indian Paradise - A chicken curry (can't remember which one), baingan bharta (some of the best eggplant I've had!), chana masala (also amazing) - Indian Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

We got gobi Manchurian and malai kofta. The malai kofta gravy was ok, nothing special but the kofta ball was bland. The gobi Manchurian was also very ok. The naan we ordered was also slightly burnt. I was annoyed that the plain rice did not come with the curry and had to be ordered separately. read more

Great place. Excellent rogan Josh and other dishes per my partner who spent two summers in India. Delicious salt and mango lhassi. They were doing a lot of takeout orders so others must like it, too. read more

Several people on our neighborhood Facebook page were raving about this place. So we decided to check it out. It did NOT disappoint. This was the best Indian food that we've had since we moved to Chicago! Plus a very friendly and professional staff. We will definitely be back again and again. Just remember they are BYOB. read more

Indian Paradise - Chicken korma and butter chicken with garlic naan! - Indian Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Some of the best Indian around. Food always comes out hot, great flavor, attentive service. Great dine in (with a patio!) and take out. My go-to spot. read more

This is the best Indian spot in Chicago, without a doubt. I've had 15 different palak paneers in the city, this one is by far the best. The Chana Masala is also fire. We like medium spicy and it hits so perfect, every time. We live in the neighborhood and have been here 25 times since we moved 2 years ago. The Chicken Tikka Masala is also the best tikka masala i've ever had, the sauce is perfect. Turmeric rice is also a great side. The service and ambiance is also great. Would recommend this over anywhere. read more

So happy there is a good Indian spot in the neighborhood! With the prices of downtown spots like India house increasing in prices, Indian Paradise was a pleasant surprise. We pretty much loved all our dishes: Vegetable samosa, Gobi manchurian, Chana masala, mutter paneer, garlic naan, and chicken tikka masala. The chicken may have been a touch over cooked but still very tasty. Very happy with this place and definitely will be back read more

I had heard great things about Indian Paradise (Including a woman from SE Asian who told me it was her new favorite Indian place in Chicago), and it did not disappoint. I ordered takeout for lunch: Lamb curry, side of herb rice, side of garlic naan. The curry was excellent. Great flavor with a good amount of heat. The lamb was braised perfectly- not dry at all. The herb rice was good, but in retrospect, probably not worth spending the extra $7 for since the curry came with a side of white rice. The garlic naan was incredible-- clearly fresh off the grill. Prices look a little high, but portion size is also large-- I easily got 2 meals out of my order (with plenty of rice to spare). Overall it lived up to my very high expectations and I'm excited to make it a regular spot and try more things on the menu. read more

I ordered butter chicken, garlic naan, gobi Manchurian, mutton briyani and lassi. Food taste good, but gobi Manchurian taste more like orange chicken which is chewy. I wish Gobi Manchurian to be a little gravy. read more

Excellent food, very nice vegetarian friendly menu, pleasant atmosphere and lovely waitstaff. All good! Highly recommended.

excellent excellent food and service .... a must when u visit!!! Order the chicken Korma .... the onion naan is a must!!! read more

Food was delicious and the service was amazing! would recommend the chicken tikka masala and the black tea. Will definitely be back next time! read more

I have had Indian Paradise take out 10 or so times since they opened. Initially everything was delicious and fresh and I was thrilled to have a solid take out spot close by. However, as time has gone on, the entrees have become watered down and flavorless and the rice is always stale. So frustrating when a place is initially delicious but decides to cut corners. The tadka dal used to be rich, thick, and such a winner. Tonight, it was thin, grey, and unsavory. I would love to have this place as my go-to on busy nights but after tonight's meal, I will likely look elsewhere. SO DISAPPOINTED! read more

Incredible Indian Cuisine! The wife & I initially came over to this part of town to hit up HANDLEBAR again, but rolled the dice on Indian Paradise! Awesome food! read more

By far the best authentic Indian food in the Chicago area. Veggie dishes, lamb, chicken are all amazing. You will be coming back here for your Indian fix after you try this place. We are lucky to live close enough to the restaurant we can walk in. If you chose to eat in you have BYOB to look forward to as well! The service and staff are extremely warm and hospitable. Your journey for great Indian food is over. You'll enjoy whatever you order...(and try a rice dish, herbed rice is amazing) read more

Great service and delicious food!! They just opened and we highly recommend Indian Paradise. read more

Indian Paradise - Chicken tiki masala, Lamb Curry, naan - Indian Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I got chicken tikka masala delivered...Note that it does come w plain basmati rice! I also got the herb rice which was delicious too but I actually preferred the plain :). I got the garlic naan as well. Everything was delicious. The chicken tikka was flavorful without being too heavy. I personally could've handled a little more spice but I think was perfectly flavored for most that cant handle the heat. It was reasonably priced and delicious ! I will definitely order again and hope to visit in person some time ! read more

Very good food and service with generous portions. Pleasant atmosphere. Try it! Keema Samosa Paradise Chicken read more

Really yummy Indian restaurant. Great for takeout, especially if you're in the neighborhood.

Amazing experience! The best service and experience! The food was amazing as well....100% recommend

Food is full of flavor and consistently good.

Not sure how they got decent reviews. I'm a professional chef and this is not good Indian food whatsoever!!

Wow, I couldn't be happier that this place opened up so close by! We ordered take out today and we were blown away. We had the gobi manchurian (excellent flavor, crispy, low spice level), vegetarian samosas (delicious), naan (classic), malai kofta (outrageous spices, A+), and chicken tikka masala (excellent). We also had some mango lassi which was great. Overall, this is the best Indian food I've had in the several years that I've lived in chicago. PLEASE SUPPORT THIS PLACE SO IT SUCCEEDS!! read more

Fantastic food and great service. Fun to do in a group. The presentation is really lovely and the price is good.

This is the best Indian food I've had. The vegetable samosas were incredible along with the sauce it came with. The garlic naan tasted homemade and the tikka masala sauce was so creamy. Not to mention the service from Abu was unbeatable!! 10/10 will be visiting this restaurant regularly!! read more

I'm Indian so believe me when I say... the food was DELICIOUS!! I ordered Salmon Tikka Masala to go and it was probably one of the best gravies I've ever tested. They were not stingy with the meat pieces and it was so thick/creamy!! Can't wait to eat inside the restaurant and try other dishes. Also, the staff is very very nice and friendly. read more

Grabbed take out on a Sunday night and was very impressed. Was very affordable as we got two apps, two entrees, rice and naan for under $60 and have leftovers for at least two meals. Samosas we're excellent and the green chutney is fantastic. We had the lamb vindaloo and chicken curry and both were tasty. Menu is huge so looking forward to trying new things. Great addition to the neighborhood! read more

Beat Indian food in the neighborhood! Everything was so flavorful and fresh- will definitely eat here again. I'm also excited I'm in their delivery zone! read more

This place is my favorite! We have tried a ton of things: chicken 65, chicken pakora, chicken Manchurian, salmon Tikka masala, salmon paradise, veggie vindaloo, kofta makhani, dal makhani, baigan bharta, naan, onion pakora, samosa, etc. The Tikka masala sauce should be regulated by the government it is so addictive. It's the best I've ever had. The quality of the proteins are excellent. The dishes are complex and herbaceous and spicy and dreamy. You should eat here. read more

I visited the restaurant and ordered garlic naan and paneer butter masala it reminded me of my good old day in India food was awesome and the interaction with the staff was cooperative the one from staff suggested me to have this dish thanks to her. read more
