The lamb seekh was moist and flavourful, the malai tikka was tender and yummy and the Shrimp kolivada was just excellent. Lamb Kheema with pav - unexpected looking with a white yoghurty looking topping. But it was yummy and went really well with the soft pav. Butter chicken - I try atay away from butter chicken and chicken tikka masala in most places but reciews seem to rave about it so gave it a shot. Took me back to bombay at my facorite mughlai restaurant that made the bombest butter chicken. Also the garlic naan was also really good. Chicken biryani - Flavourful with tender chicken.

We got a table right away and ordered a vegetable samosa, something we love. It came out right away and it was so delicious. They were brought out with some sauces that elevated your plate. The samosa was a bit spicy but the many flavors paired so well together. For dinner I got the chicken tikka masala and my boyfriend got the butter chicken. We added the garlic naan and rice to our plate. The chicken tikka masala was very delicious. You can taste all the different spices in the dish. I love garlic and the garlic naan did not disappoint. It has such a great garlic taste and it was perfect for dipping in here masala sauce. The butter chicken was so buttery. It tasted very similarly to the chicken tikka masala though. Not pictured was our mango lassi. My boyfriend ordered it for us and in was pleasantly surprised. It's like a mango yogurt drink. It has a velvety texture and it was very flavorful. I would definitely get it again. Ultimately, I'd love to come back and try other items in the menu.

Interestingly, the waitress wanted us about the "spice" level and then everything came down all watered down. The curry tasted more like a mellow Thai peanut curry and I have no idea what they did to the lamb sauce because it was just a flavorful, spiceless sauce. I am so disappointed that we paid to have our food come out modified because someone in the restaurant decided we couldn't handle the heat when we explicitly said we wanted it spicy. Oh, and when I told the waitress none of the food was spicy she just laughed...

The second you want in, you're immediately greeted and given the option to sit at a traditional Indian seat, booth, or table. I love how authentic the ambiance looked right off the bat, and you can tell it was well kept. We got the Maharaj Mix Grill for 2, and it was a ton of food for two people. The butter chicken and naan paired so well together, and it tasted even better with the rice. Additionally, the grilled meats were cooked to perfection and seasoned so well! I loved how flavorful the chicken and lamb were that I couldn't stop eating it. There was so much food that we had to take the rest to-go. The service was not bad. They made sure to fill our waters when they got empty and brought out the food very quick. The only con was that the waitress seemed very monotone and didn't really seem interested in serving us. Not a big deal though! Definitely try out this gem in downtown Chicago. You won't leave hungry!

The A/C was delightful and were were seated right away. It got really busy by the time we left. I think it may be the best palak paneer I have ever had. I judge Indian food based on saag or palak paneer and this was a winner. We also enjoyed a tray of grilled meats. They were all really good but the chicken was a bit dry. The dahl was spot on. I am not a fan of basmati rice. THIS basmati rice was so so good. It was longish and kinky and didn't have a heavy flavor. The onion kulcha was a bit busy with lentils? in the middle. It was good but I prefer just onions. Both the naan and kulcha were baked perfectly. Warning: portions are huge!! This is great if you live there as it could have been our next three meals with leftovers. Made for a nice breakfast the next day in our hotel tho! If we lived in Chicago- this would be our regular place.

The menu online looked promising, but when ordering through their website or UberEats, the options were pretty limited. I went with the goat biryani. It arrived really fast to my hotel and I dug right in. Opening it up, the container was packed to the max so definitely not stingy with portions. I loved that it had potatoes and a ton of meat. Taste wise, I'd say it wasn't the best Bangladeshi goat biryani I've had, but it wasn't bad either. It was okay. Obviously it doesn't compare to the motherland or New York or other big metro areas, but I'm still happy there's at least one Bangladeshi spot in Chicago. I just hope they add more items to the delivery menu at some point.

I'm sure those will go fast. Very large space with open seating to find a place to sit and enjoy. Very inviting and welcoming. Big bar at the entrance. Elegant and chill overall feeling. Not a basic cafe, an elevated feeling.

The Bhoomi Burger far exceeded all expectations! Believe it or not, the only thing this nitpicker…read morecan find fault with is that the burger was a little messy to eat - but that's to be expected. More on that later. I find most fast-casual burger places make something decent, and some make hockey pucks. Meanwhile, this one is leaps and bounds above the rest. The lamb patty on its own was not only soft and well-seasoned, but also brimming with flavor. Then I took a bite of the whole thing and temporarily bounced up to food heaven. The herbaceous, savory, and earthy notes of their chimmichutney took the burger to another level. The veggies added some additional freshness, with the avocado and mayo contributing even more savory notes. Big bonus points for a fresh bun, too! On messiness: The container was small enough that I could barely slide my hands in to grab the burger. This, combined with the somewhat slippery chimmichutney, meant that keeping the burger together was a difficult and losing battle. No worries - less chimmichutney would mean less flavor, and I have no issues eating anything (burgers included) with a fork. Simply, I'd hope Bhoomi Modern Indian Grill considers larger containers for these... otherwise, don't upset the balance! Finally, credit to the service for being kind, friendly, and giving me something hot and fresh after about five minutes! Thus, Bhoomi Burger quickly earned a spot on my favorites. The whole experience was all-around fantastic, and I can't wait to bring all my friends here.

My favorite was actually the saag paneer (spinach cheese) dish. It goes really well with the papadum. I also really liked the daal makhani. They had tandoori chicken, chicken korma and chicken tikka masala. The sauces were really good but the tandoori chicken was a bit dry. They come out with fresh buttered naan once a few minutes after you get your table. There were plenty of seats and it was clean inside. I remember it being pretty quiet. I was surprised it wasn't super populated when we went around 1pm on a Sunday, which was great. I'd definitely come back here, it's a great price and great variety of food for their weekend lunch buffet. I left feeling super full and happy.

The butter chicken was really good, and I appreciated that it wasn't one of those dishes where you get way more sauce than actual chicken; the ratio was right.

I also tried the onion bhaji since it was on sale and I'm glad I did. no regrets at all.

She got the Taco Trio app which had three pieces of tacos filled with curried lamb, kerala Barbacoa and vindaloo chicken, all topped with cilantro and onions. A great dish for trying different kinds of their curry. The taco shell was not fried so it would not be too greasy. I got the Lamb Shank Vindaloo entree. The shank was medium sized, served over a rich, slightly spicy curry. My server told me the dish was already very spicy so I asked for mild. It turned out to be much less spicy than I expected so it was deserve trying even if you do not eat much spicy food. It was served with basmati rice. We also shared the Ghee Roasted Cauliflower. It was a whole cauliflower par-boiled then roasted. Topped with cheese and served with yogurt and mint chutney. The cauliflower had a distinct taste from cumin and turmeric, while the yogurt+chutney gave it some freshness and heat. Overall very interesting. However, the cauliflower could be boiled for less time so it could maintain some crispness.
