Big Data, Please Recommend This Indian Restaurant

This spot comes highly recommended by Indian friends — authentic and awesome! 😋 The food is fragrant, the decor is thoughtful, and the space is spacious with both large round tables and smaller ones. They also offer a lunch buffet during the day! 🤩 Bang Bang Cauliflower – A signature recommendation! Cauliflower coated in batter, fried, and drenched in Bang Bang sauce — crispy outside, soft inside. Loved the sauce! 💰 $10 🍛 Two Curries – Both were delicious: Lamb Curry (💰 $16) – Tender, absorbs the curry well, no gamey taste. My favorite! Chicken Curry (💰 $14) – A bit drier but still tasty — safe choice if you’re not into lamb. 🫓 How to eat: Pair the curry with rice or dip bread in it. We ordered Butter Naan (💰 $3) — buttery, warm, and perfect for soaking up that curry. From questioning Indian “sauces” to fully embracing them ✨ 🌶️ Spice level: If you have a sensitive stomach like me, go with mild — still flavorful without the heat. (My friend tried medium last time and regretted it for two days 😅) 🍚 Biryani – Fragrant spiced rice — also really good! 🍸 Skip the Cutting Chai Martini — weird flavor, couldn’t get into it 🤢 👨‍🍳 Service was super attentive — when they saw we were running out of rice but still had curry left, they offered more. When we asked for leftovers to go, they even packed an extra box of rice — lunch for the next day sorted! 🍱 They also offer a lunch buffet — perfect for solo weekday meals or group weekend gatherings. 🚪 Imperial Kitchen Modern Indian Cuisine 📍 12337 Illinois Rte 59 Unit 127, Plainfield, IL 60585 #ChicagoEats #IndianFood #AuthenticIndian #ImperialKitchen #FoodieRecs #CurryLover
