    Lahori Fish Fry
    Chris M.

    Kababish is such a hidden gem - one of my favorite restaurants in Chicago! Every time I've been here, the food has been top-notch. They're not afraid to use spices, which is exactly what I want out of a restaurant. The first time I came here, I got the chili chicken and fish fry and I've gotten those two dishes every time I go since. Yes, that does mean there are many menu items that I have yet to try but I just can't go here without getting those two! Other notable items are the chicken patty and vegetables (not sure the exact name but it was super tasty). Big fan of the atmosphere here - very casual, almost like you're eating in someone's home. It's a tiny building in the middle of a parking lot that you would never guess has some of the best South Asian food in Chicago. Service is solid too, just be prepared to wait a little bit during prime meal time. Might want to order a cup of chai to enjoy while you wait!

    Chicken Biryani

    Delicious chicken biryani (available sun, mon, tues). Massive portion and the real deal. Can't wait to go back and try more dishes

    Massive portion of spiced rice and meat dishes for cheap. Pros: Massive portion, heavy flavor. Cons: Bones in the goat dishes. Just grabbed to go dinner. Staff are friendly and efficient, food is super flavorful and the portions are massive. Got two dishes one spiced chicken and one goat. I love goat meat and this was great with a low spice level but the little bones I kept biting really hurt so I wouldn't go for this again. The chicken however was great flavor and spice without bones and was good cold the next day. Total price per dish $14 Rating 8/10

    Baklava

    Excellent chicken biryani 10/10 with a side of onions, jalapeños and lime, plus a great selection of other grilled meats or wraps on the menu! The portion size is huge. If you're a fan of baklava they've got it too. I've been eating baklava all my life and I'm picky- so I'd say the baklava is good enough, but it didn't blow my mind. The overall experience at Kababish is great. The staff is friendly, and the service is fast. No frills joint with family-style, home-cooked-style, authentic food. Highly recommended if you're in the area. Also a bonus that there's plenty of easy parking in their own parking lot.

    Staff is super nice and knowledgeable. The Goat Pulao and Chicken BBQ Boti were our favorites. The chai and gajar ka halwa was also delicious. Butter chicken was ok and the portion could be bigger.

    Chili Chicken, spinach and potatoes and dal.

    Great quality Pakistani food in a setting that's a bit of a dive and not as clean as I would like. You walk in and order with the cook, who was very helpful in explaining the dishes. They basically have stews, biryani and bbq meats, which they make on their flat top grill. I like that they have daily specials, wherein they rotate in and out the different stews and dahls. We sat on the patio, which could use a deep cleaning. The food was great, spicy, flavorful, fresh and delicious. There's a definite homemade quality to the food here, and I appreciate the expertise. I'll most definitely be back.

    Easily one of the most hole-in-the-wall spots in Chicago, with flavors to match. Came here on a whim and have zero regrets. The chili chicken rice is insane- flavorful, SPICY, and the biggest heaping portion I've ever seen. Grill items need a good 25-35 minutes, but if you're not in a hurry, it's definitely worth the wait! Spent around $30 for two items that ended up being closer to 4 servings. Intimate setting inside and the regular patrons clearly felt at home with the owner. It was lively and homey, so much so I almost felt like I was intruding on a private dinner (but in a good way). Decent sized parking lot right in front, which is always a win in my books. Only drawback is that most of the rice dishes are only available once a week (check the menu in advance!), so we would have to come back on separate days to try some of the items we were eyeing.

The mixed grill was good - felt the red chili on the chicken tikka was too strong. It was also overpriced for the offering. Highway chicken karhai was delicious well balanced, very tasty. Ambiance was okay. Service was okay. Felt the price was a bit high for what we had . $120 for the aforementioned three dishes, naan plus tip/tax.

    Heard good about this place so we decided to go here. So we wanted to give it a try but we are…read moreutterly disappointed. Place is packed and it was extremely loud.... We ordered a lot of food including goat biryani, chicken Kashmiri and highway goat Karahi. To our surprise goat Karahi was really skimpy quantity and when we started eating it almost90% of the goat pieces were all bones with very little flesh remain it. Together with the skimpy quantity and all boney pieces we were very disappointed. Chicken Kashmiri was of pretty good taste. We ordered a card different naans and some were left uncooked. Goat biryani was simply terrible and very very mediocre to bad taste. We also ordered a chicken kabob and they were so undercooked that we had to call them and we asked about it. They said they would replace it but we were not interested because we were so disappointed. Overall we are very disappointed Go try other options of similar food all around Devon Ave. Bundoo Khan is way overrated and we will not be going there again.
