    If you are craving an authentic pakistani breakfast look no further because OMG Nafisa's Kitchen is it! The staff and owner are welcoming and kind, which added to our dining experience. This was our first time here but it will not be the last. We cannot wait to come back and try other items from their menu. I am dreaming about their Irani Chai while sharing this review.

    Butter Chicken
    Sami U.

    First time trying food from OMG Nafisa's Kitchen! Fast and friendly customer service! Standard clean ambiance of the restaurant. We got Samosas and Butter chicken for dinner - both were good.

    OMG Nafisa's Kitchen is off the beaten path from Devon and a hidden gem! We've eaten breakfast, lunch and carryout (dinner). All the food items are halal made with freshly ground spices and ingredients , generously portioned and taste delicious! Overall I'm giving them a solid 9.8! Definitely our new "Go To" Pakistani place. Salman the host is very nice, greeted us each time and served us quickly. Comfortable clean seating. You really can't go wrong with anything you order here. Ratings below: Puri Halwa 8 (puri's are large size) Shami chicken & beef 10 Goat biryani 9 Chicken puffs 7 Chicken biryani 9 Chicken tikka 10 Hara chicken 7 Chutneys 8 (light, fresh) Naan Irani chai is aromatic, creamy and is a delicious full flavor. Best way to end the meal! Generous portions 10 Freshly ground spices 10

    Chicken Frontier Rice
    Melissa L.

    I placed a pickup order from OMG Nafisa's Kitchen and tried the Chicken Frontier Rice (Indian spicy)--the portion was super generous, and the flavor definitely delivered! However, I was a little disappointed that the rice didn't have the bell peppers, onions, or veggies I was expecting. It felt like something was missing to really round it out. On the bright side, the garlic naan was absolutely to die for--buttery, garlicky, and fresh out of the oven. I could eat that on its own, no problem. Overall, great food and solid value, just wish the rice had come with the veggies as described. I'll definitely be back to try more!

    Food is solid - interesting mix of Pakistani/Indian food with Mexican/Desi options. Fries were super crispy and delicious. Butter chicken is flavorful with some heat. Naan is top notch! Service is sus. Had to get my own silverware. Drink/Mango Lassi took 45 minutes despite multiple reminders that we still wanted it. One of the dishes we ordered never came out. When we asked about it, the waitress first said she forgot and then said she thought we were kidding. Weird. Why not clarify if there's any confusion?!?! Ambiance is ok. Older furnishings. Sticky table cloths. Could use some updates. Really the service is extremely bad.

    Butter Chicken Taco (3 Taco)
    Madeleine A.

    Came here on a Saturday night to a quiet restaurant filled with what seemed like locals. The decorations of the restaurant were a bit corny with dad pun food posters but the service was very friendly. We saw this place on instagram & we were very interested in the butter chicken tacos! You do have to ask for the mexican menu as it doesn't come on the main so keep that in mind when looking for their fusion menu. The butter chicken taco was very cheesy, flavorful, & highly recommend the orange sauce to drench on top. The chef came to check on us after we finished the tacos. He was very interested on our thoughts & loved how passionate he was on getting his menu right as it seemed liked the restaurant was still finding its footing. The beef nihari was on the chefs special & we ordered the garlic naan. The naan was beautiful & the beef was well spiced. It was a new dish for me but it was very tender & loved trying the spice with the lemon & ginger. We ate everything & it was all under $40. Definitely a hole in the wall spot in Morton Grove but great spot to try. I get why OMG is included in the title

    Mutton Biryani
    Isra A.

    I've gotten to go orders twice from here after ordering online through their website. Each time it took at least 25 minutes to be ready (already kind of absurd). There is rarely people eating inside and the ambiance is alright but you can tell it's more of a spot to go. The service is okay too, it is a small family business. I hope they will take the following review as constructive feedback. Out of the 4 dishes i have ordered in total, 3 of them have been absolute disappointments. I have gotten the Mutton Biryani, Butter chicken, seekh kabob, and chicken frontier rice. The Mutton Biryani was the only good thing, although it had more meat than rice I really can't complain about that. The other 3 dishes were bad and nowhere near authentic. Honestly an embarrassment to even have these dishes on the menu. All 3 of them looked and tasted like someone had tried making them at home for the very first time. The butter chicken was at least 20% oil with no butter to be found? It tasted like an oily chicken salan. The seekh kabob were a paste instead of being made with ground beef and closer to shami kabob? I opened the box to find 5 small thick round kabobs and a 1/4 piece just chilling on the side. Honestly found it very hard to swallow these because they were so thick it felt like taking bites of paste. And finally the chicken frontier rice was barely flavored biryani rice mixed with dry boneless chicken pieces, a meh 4/10 at best. After the long waits you would think the food would be better but it's just not. The only saving grace at this place is the portions being generous (not that you'd want that for these dishes) and the prices being reasonable. I cannot recommend.

    Samosas

    I had the chicken tikka with biryani and samosas. The samosas came in an order of 4. The pastry shell looks a bit thick and hard. The inside was a bit dense, tasted powdery texture of mash potatoes with peas(?) with spices. I was disappointed at the samosas and cannot finish 1 piece. The chicken tikka was very soft, fall of the bone, overcooked and burnt. Flavors are good. Biryani was decent. Flavor and texture of the rice is good.

    All around solid spot for Indian fare - whether it's inside their restaurant or at the Park Ridge…read moreFarmer's Market (where we first found out about Thalaiva's). We've dined in once but typically order takeout. The inside of the restaurant is fairly large in their new location, so we were able to walk in on a weekend day for lunch. Service is good enough - nothing special. Most times we're put on hold when we call but they are kind and accommodating. They have always been consistent with quality and time quoted for pick-ups, which we really appreciate. Our go-to is always a Chicken Dosa and we mix between Spicy Butter Chicken or their Chicken Pepper Fry. Sometimes all three ;) Their chicken dosa just hits the spot every time. Crispy, packed, and flavorful. We pop it in the air fryer to add extra crisp and works like a charm. We also warm up a side of cauliflower rice and it's perfect. Makes great leftovers too. It is on the higher end but quality is noticed and they hook it up with chicken in each dish.

I ordered chicken lollipop and vada sambhar(not pictured), husband ordered a chicken kothhu parotta and we ordered a veg thali for mom. The lollipop was pretty good, flavourful and tasted just like what we get back in India, the Kotthu Parotta was decent, I felt it lacked a little kick that usually comes from a certain type of chicken curry that's added while preparing the dish. The thali had some good stuff and some okay-ish. Some of the items in the thaali were cold and being one of the first few consumers that day I expected everything to be piping hot. The vada was amazing crispy on the outside soft on the inside in short absolute yummmm!! And we washed it all down with a cool glass of Mango Lassi that was the perfect finisher! The highlights for the day were the chicken lollipop and the vada sambhar!

Our order (lamb briyani, chicken tikka masala, plain naan) today was a real letdown, especially considering the price ($60 total), which made the experience all the more disappointing. The lamb briyani was soggy and lacked the usual flavor. The rice served with it didn't look like the basmati we've gotten before. Instead, it looked like some overcooked short-grain rice that appeared broken and tasteless. Normally, the rice would be a fragrant, flavorful complement to the dish, but today it was just plain and unseasoned. The lamb itself was underwhelming and lacked the rich, savory flavor. Chicken tikka masala was too sweet and lacked the usual depth of flavor. The chicken was dry and unappetizing. There was no balance of spice or seasoning, making the whole dish feel off and not satisfying. The only consistent item in the order was the naan, and sadly the only positive thing I can say. It's frustrating because this place has been a good option in the area in the past, but today's meal just didn't measure up. For the price point, we expected much more, and based on this experience, we won't be coming back.

Since we hadn't been here, we decided to check it out. This restaurant is located off Dempster St. in a small plaza. They serve a variety of dosas and Indian street food dishes. They also offer Indian desserts, Indian beverages, Boba teas, and Yemeni Adani Tea. The pricing is reasonable. We ordered a Ghee Roasted Dosa, and extra spicy Mysore Masala Dosa, a Spring Dosa, Mumbai Pav Bhaji, and two Adani teas. The food was served promptly. The food is served in sturdy disposable food trays along with plastic ware and hot beverages are served in coffee shop like to-go, small size (paper) coffee cups. The tea was scalding hot as it was freshly prepared. I had to let it cool off. The plastic lid of the cup was tightly fitted and given how hot the cup was, it was hard to take the plastic lid off. The lid was hot along with the cup. They had the hot cup sleeves but they were too big for their small tea cups. The tea was nice. All the dosas were tasty. We liked them. They had decent flavor and texture. They were a bit thicker than the dosas from other south Indian restaurants we have eaten at. That wasn't a problem to us. The spice level for my dosa was good. The accompaniments with the dosas of sambar, coconut chutney, and tomato chutney, for dosa dipping purposes, were nice. We really liked the coconut chutney (w/ cashews) and tomato chutney (w/ peanuts). They were flavorful. The sambar had a nice flavor (from spices & veggies) but texture wise it could've been better. It needed to be a bit thicker. The Pav Bhaji (bread with mixed veggies in a gravy) had a decent taste but it needed to be thick with some body from the usual veggies in it. The Pav (Indian bread) for the Bhaji was really good. Our experience was nice. The service was decent. We were the first customers after they opened at 12:30 pm but a short time later, the restaurant got busy. If I am in the area again, I would go back. Overall, 3.5 stars.
