Quiet restaurant when we went on a Friday night - a few other diners and regular take out/delivery. Makes it easy to get in and parking on metered side streets go free early. It's table service and we went with trying their chicken seekh kabob and palak paneer along with jeera (cumin) rice and a paratha naan (naan that has been pan fried) to try. The chicken seekh kabob is well sized and good pieces of garlic in the mix (not raw). The palak was richer than we've had it elsewhere. The paratha naan fills a space that is neither of its namesakes. Will cost a little more than other counter service options nearby, less disposable ware with family style dining, and number of staff available to take care of you. read more

If you visit this restaurant, the Mixed Kabob Platter is a non-negotiable order. Unlike many places where the meat can arrive dry or over-charred, the kabobs here are masterfully executed.     *    Chicken Tikka: The yogurt marinade is deeply infused with cumin and Kashmiri chili, resulting in incredibly tender pieces.     *    Seekh Kabobs: These are the highlight. The ground lamb is seasoned with fresh cilantro, mint, and green chilies, then flame-grilled until it has that perfect "melt-in-your-mouth" texture.     *    The Presentation: It arrives on a sizzling bed of caramelized onions and peppers, served with a side of buttery garlic naan and a refreshing mint chutney that cuts right through the richness. read more

Such great food, great portions, very friendly staff, fair prices. This is a hidden gem on Devon

Naan on Devon & GRILL - Menu - Indian Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I just saw I posted a review and said I wouldn't order from here again. Here, I am years later with the same issue. I have spent well over $100 here over 2 days. White rice has always come with every Indian dish I've had over the years. Here if you order chicken do NOT expect anything else. I'm glad I decided to post a review, and saw my last one. It's a "never again" for me because there are too many other options. I think it would be better if the online menu says don't come with rice and the. I can decide to order it or pick another restaurant. read more

The food and service was excellent. Highly recommend this place! Our server was patient and nice. We tried a variety of foods, and everything was delicious. read more

My boyfriend and I were very please with the food , the service and The area. We will definitely return to try more of the items on the menu. Very delicious and the staff were very kind . Look forward to trying their Friday Buffet Special!! Thank you all . read more

Basic looking locally owned Indian restaurant but the food isn't basic. It sure is easy to find Indian food in Rogers Park, and if you're looking for authentic stuff, you can get it from here. Naan On Devon is a little place visited mostly by Indians. Meaning, if they like it then it must be good. The entrees are just that and don't include naan or rice, but the prices are okay. About as authentic of Indian as you can get. It has that pungent Indian food smell as you come in. That better be the food I smell. Anyway, we got some authentic cuisine. The menu is full of lots of stuff. Chana Masala is her favorite so she got it. It's about $11 for entrees, which is a pretty typical price for Indian food it seems so I won't complain a whole lot about prices. The one I got was the Mix Sabzi. It's another vegetarian item. This is basically mixed vegetables. Both the entrees were good. The problem was they were only the main part and nothing else came with these. It didn't include naan. There was no rice. It's a couple bucks extra to get bread. Then a couple more for rice. Good as far as what we got. It would have been better to include naan or rice with it. These are typically eaten with entrees so it's kind of fucked up to not include these. read more

Naan on Devon was a delightful experience. The service was quick and friendly, and even with our group of 12, the food arrived promptly. Our server was very helpful with recommendations and pairings. The food tasted fantastic, especially the desserts and paan. Prices were also very reasonable. read more

I come here regularly. We eat chapati at home, and rather than making them at home, I order and get a whole bunch from here. I've tried many places but this place's chapatis are perfect. And even after freezing them, they're so good. And the perfect size! And the perfect thickness! I love the rest of their food too, especially the seekh and chapli kababs. Actually, everyone at home (even the picky eaters) love the kababs. I'll also get nihari, haleem, and every now and then, biryani. I order everything ahead of time, but when I get there, there are at least 3 to 4 items I wish I had ordered! I haven't eaten here -- we haven't eaten on Devon since the Pandemic -- so I can't comment on the tableside service, but whoever attends to me is always kind, polite, and prompt. And if I need to wait, they're very good at giving me a good estimate of how long. Oh, and I drive in from the north 'burbs, so this place has to be amazing to make that drive for food! read more

Great service; there was no waiting and as soon as we walked in. Our waiter was very attentive and the food was delicious. Definitely would come here again. read more

Food is amazing, seasoned perfectly, staff was very nice and welcoming. I will definitely come back

Lamb biriyani was phenomenal, the lamb was the most tender I have ever had. The rice was done just right, the service was fast.

Bought a Groupon and owner refused to accept it. Why put yourself on Groupon if you're not going to accept it? I got questioned about how much I paid for it. If I paid $40 or more for the $50 Groupon, then they would take it. I wanted to try out somewhere new, but not with service like that. read more

I haven't had their food yet, but I did have their gluqund paan (fresh beetle leaf filled with ingredients that help you digest heavy and rich foods). I've had many from Pakistan and this brought me back there instantly. We've had many on Devon over the last 20 years and Hands down- This is THE best paan you're going to find on the street! read more

Good Hyderabadi on Devon: Recommendations: Chicken 65 Dahi bade Tomato cut Ghavar ki palli (beans with meat) Kati daal is ok Will be back for more! read more

I am definitly going back, and I believe I will upgrade them to a (5) five. The place is a few doors down from Great Billiard Entertainment Bar: Carey's on Devon. Cool that They let you bring in Food from outside. So I thought I would try many of the restaurants on the Block. I was glad I chose this place. read more

Very good Hyderabadi food. Ambience is so-so and service is quick but the food tastes like authentic Hyderabadi food. Hyderabadis will love it. If you are tish tosh and expect great service ambience go someplace else. This place is only for Hyderabadi foodies. read more

Hit the spot, hot and fresh. I ordered delivery. The Chicken Tikka, cooked in a clay oven, was flavorful and tender and the garlic naan went perfectly with it. I enjoyed my Mango Lassi as well. It was very sweet but the perfect finish to the slightly spicy meal. The food was very well packaged as well, maintaining heat and texture of the food. Will order again! read more

Best pan in the galaxy. Real talk. I went in and told the guy I needed some good pan for my mother in law. He laughed and recommended the "Special Sweet Pan." I asked him what made it special, and he told me just to try it. Okay, Bismillah. I did. Allahu Akbar. It took me to the moon. He added dates, almonds, and other deliciousness in this pan that literally had me praying for more. Congrats to the owners. This is a product to take pride in. Can't wait to visit again and again. MashAllah. read more

I had high hopes for this place. I ordered the goat. Had to pay extra for rice. The goat was bones and fat. The samosas were ok. Paid $45 and felt cheated. read more

The food quantity does not justify the high prices. There was barely any meat in the butter chicken and briyani. The briyani dish was filled with a lot of bones. This restaurant is filthy. The table cloth had stains that appear to have been there for a long time. The menu that was handed out was simply disgusting. The bathroom is a joke. It's like this place is afraid to clean as they have no sense of hygiene standards. read more

okay 1. I know I'm white. but god damn this chicken tikka masala is hot AF. I ASKED FOR MILD. my mouth is dying. i can't taste a thing. food ruined. don't at me. i cannot do pepper spicy. gimme some wasabi, I'm fine. but fuck this is too much 2. who charges extra for rice?! i paid $14 for a tiny ramaken of tikka masala and THEN they tell me I have to pay $4 extra for a giant thing of rice! next time I'll get the sauce from Trader Joe's and cook it myself. garlic naan was good though. read more

Normally "Hyderabad House" would be my choice in Devon but ended up here as we forgot to carry cash. This place is not a fancy one but hole in wall kind like most of the places in the vicinity.The place is not huge but can accommodate around 40 people. We ordered garlic naan but ended up getting a normal one with 5-6 garlic pieces on it .Mutton kurma was good and its not really spicy so most of the foreigners would like it.Chicken biryani was good and Mutton biryani was little wet but the pieces were well cooked. Pros: Food is good. Price is nominal Cons: Seems the credit machine have issues. Service is good but can get better. Little odor for while at the entrance. Not too bad place to try if you like exploring. read more

Great authentic Hyderabadi food I highly recommend this restaurant. Reasonable prices as well .

The food was TERRIBLE. I am Indian and have Waterbury Indian food all my life. This was the worst and I do not exaggerate WORST food ever. The nans were like papad and the curry had uncooked spices and had so much spice they only burnt your throat. I know they would never give a refund so I won't even call them but if this was an American restaurant I would have called for a credit back. read more

Real casual mood and a good curry to read Irvine Welsh to. Or whatever you like to read.

I found this place on accident and love it. It's VERY small and easy to overlook. If you are seeking an authentic experience, this is the place to go. Nothing is fancy...at all. The menu is written with a marker on a poster board. I've never been to India or Pakistan, but I honestly thought I was there when I walked in. There is no fluff in this place. The portions are huge and it's rather cheap. The last time I went there, I had the biryani plate for $4.00. The plate came with basmati rice, naan, with biryani. The do have several combination plates and specials. But, as cheap as they are, they really don't need a special. They are open later than most of the other restaurants on Devon and worth making stop. Just look hard because it's easy to overlook. read more

They have severely decreased the portion size of Chicken 65, they probably give 60% of what they served before.It makes me sad that they give so much less now because $8 is not worth it for the amount the give you. They also boosted the prices on the platter by $2. One thing to note about the platter is that it's inconsistent. For example, you'll get two pieces of kabob one week, but the next week it will be replaced by chicken. The food is still delicious and still one of my favorites on Devon. But now, I think I'll factor in other options. Besides this, you can read my previous reviews for more information. read more

Wanted Indian food so we thought, why not hit up Devon?? We thought we would go up there (30 min drive from Little Italy), be spontaneous, not rely on Yelp and just choose a restaurant. Well, after convincing each other that we should not trust ourselves in an unfamiliar neighborhood we both pulled up our Yelp, as usual. Anyways, this place had 4 stars and we also wanted something hole in the wall so we came here. This place was very good. We ordered: Curry lamb- Very tasty Haleem- It was a Sunday special. We didn't know what the heck it was but being the adventurous eater I am, I ordered it and loved it! Lamb chops- Very tender and it went great with the raw onions and naan. Biriyani Lamb- huge portion. Naan- Warm and huge. Yes, a lot of lamb tonight. Last but not least, will definitely return. read more

Ordered a family tray of chicken biryani. Flavor was fair but the chicken was mostly bones and the rice seemed a little hard, probably undercooked. Flavor - 5/10 Customer service - 6/10 Environment - 4/10 Value - Worth the price as $20 can feed multiple people. read more

Pros Hyderabadi Biryani (Veggie) was great! Got the food delivered for free along with groceries through Quicklly.com Cons None read more

Order food which tasted good. But only had 5 pieces of chicken in the chicken tiki masala and butter chicken. Also didn't come with rice. Very dissatisfied with custom service too. read more

Not happy. I paid $11 for a medium sized curry that didn't even include rice. Palak paneer tasted like puree of canned spinach. Service was sub par. Will not eat there anymore. read more

Service here was terrible. Food was not good at all and the haleem is a JOKE. I don't what it was but it's definitely not haleem. Don't waste your money here. read more

They use to make good food but Now the taste is getting worse,I ordered food for my daughters birthday party and the Haleem was so salty that nobody ate,then got dahi vada it taste like nothing completely tasteless,never ordering food again read more

I had a horrible experience. I went with my daughters for a cultural experience and we were treated horribly. There were no woman eating there all men. They did not serve us water and eveyone else that came in after us received a jug of water and were served before us. Do not go here if you are female or not their ethnicity. You will be treated unfairly!!! Too bad, we were hungry. We got up and left after watching eveyone else being served that came in after us. Luckily we found a better place down the street. read more
