This must have been under a new ownership/management or something. The entire staff is different from what I have been used to seeing. I have been to this place multiple times and it’s been a while since the previous visit. Last time I visited I remember the projector screen was working and they played nice songs. This time around the interior was out of its place. The quality and quantity of food has changed drastically where the portions are way less compared to my last visit. We had ordered the standard mail kofta, paneer tika masala, veg biryani, naan, plain dosa and maysur dosa. Out of all only the dosas were cooked properly but the sambhar was so bad that it was not worth it. The two veg dishes were identical in taste. It was only made with heavy whipping cream. It felt like eating paneer cubes drenched in cream. There are far better restaurants in the area where the taste and quality of food is much better and you get what you pay for. This place is not cheap either. This place needs some serious changes.

The special medley Biriyani was Divine Food was amazing,right amount of spices . Quantity was good. Good response for phone calls. Tastes just like how food tastes in South India. I did pick up order, so I couldn’t see the interior of the restaurant. Would visit again for sure.

The customer service was good. Place is nice and clean in compare to other restaurant. I gave only two star because the food is not good at all. Dosa doesn’t taste good, i tried dosa at so many places and this is the worst dosa i ever ate. The chutney has some kind of different taste and didn’t taste like south Indian chutney at all. Menduvada was okay. My friends tried chicken 65 but they didn’t like it as well. Overall, good customer service but not good food. They need to do better with their food quality.

Had Onam sadhya from here. The buffet was excellent and they even served non-veg dishes for those that can’t do without meat. The hosts were very welcoming and the servers were diligently clearing up used plates and cutlery. Though the place had some Italian decor on the walls and around the restaurant, the Kerala tradition was kept alive through very entertaining malayali songs on a large flatscreen tv.

We had the chicken tikka masala and the butter chicken with my wife. Both dishes were delicious. The chicken was amazing. It was juicy and not dry at all. This was my first time eating at this place and I am in love with it. I have been to lots of different Indian places around the Chicago area but this has got to be one of my favorites so far. The staff was very friendly and accommodating even during this covid pandemic that we have going on. The inside was also lovely with nice comfortable seating and lively Indian music videos playing on the projector. Will definitely come back many times!

Lunch buffet can’t be beat at $9.99. The food is fresh and replaced often. There are different options of food, but it is mainly South Indian cuisine. Food options include tandoori chicken, naan, butter chicken, veg/non-veg biriyani, fish curry, white kerala style rice, etc. The chili chicken, chili fish, samosas, and chicken biryani are excellent. Everything on the menu is freshly made and very flavorful. Staff is very friendly and welcoming. Seating is ample. There is a sectioned off party room in the rear. There is also a full bar in the restaurant. Parking is available in the rear of the building. Service was excellent. I would definitely recommend coming here.

Buffet is garbage not good food at all.. They are a new place they should spend a little extra and added some quality to the food. The chicken isn’t even soft all the curries are watered down and taste is just very basic. The food is equivalent to just buying Shan Masala from the store and making it at home. This place is basically the CiCi’s of Indian restaurants. Ps, they use halal meat from Sysco. It’s not Zabiha Halal.
