This is a great gem of an Indian restaurant in Chicago and surprisngly its not located in Rogers Park or off Devon Ave!
Nestled in the Ravenswood neighborhood, this restaurant serves up authentic Indian cuisine and also a bit of Indian-Asian fusion. The chicken and lamb biryani over here is a must have and one of my favorite Biryanis in the Chicagoland area. Get it regular spicy if you're not a wuss! Its the best way to enjoy it and not really that spicy.
One of my other favorites here is the Chicken Madras which seems similar to a Butter Chicken visually but what makes it special is the addition of coconut cream which adds a very subtle coconut taste to this beautiful aromatic, bright and saucy chicken dish.
The portions here are great. We were 3 people and 2 dishes were more than enough but definitely make sure to order plenty of garlic naan for the saucy dishes!
The interior of the restaurant is quaint, cozy and has warm inviting colors and Indian decor. The service here is very good as well.
Overall you MUST try this restaurant. Theres a reason why when you walk in you'll see tens of different orders lined up on tables ready to be picked up! People love this place!
I'm not a huge fan of Indian cuisine, but I really do like the food here. Most staff are quite friendly and the service is quick. The lunch buffet is well-stocked with great choices and flavors, as well.
Indian Clay pot is my favorite Indian food in the city. They have an amazing menu with a gargantuan span of spectacular and flavorful options. I have not had a dish here that I have not loved and every friend I have shared food with here has felt the same.
The flavors here rich and deep. They have a variety of spice levels for food and many kinds of naan to choose from. I usually start with one of their varieties of samosa but they have lots of appetizer options. The herb paneer and mushroom masala was great but tried a bite of my friends lamb tikka masala and honestly it was the best dish at the table. I am eager to try more dishes.
I will continue to come back and also when I ordered for delivery in the past, the food was still great. I highly recommend this place and hope you love it as much as I have.
Indian here - this is good Indian food in Chicago. You get what you expect. Decent food, excellent service. Price is okay for the US - atrocious compared to India. Good choice if you miss home or want to try Indian food for the first time. North Indian selection only, but staff told me that the chef is South Indian (?). Great overall.
The food at this restaurant was really, really good! The Garlic Naan, Chicken 65 and Kadhai shrimp were awesome . The dishes are perfect blend of spices, creating a flavorful and perfectly seasoned. We loved it a lot, and it's a great place to go if you want yummy food with good portions. Highly recommended! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Indian Clay Pot is UNREAL. I’ve had a wide variety of their vegetarian options, since everything I’ve had has been delicious. They really keep me coming back for more! The paneer curry, daal, chana masala, and samosas are among my faves. The naan is usually pretty good, but I have ordered it for delivery and had it come a bit dry. Despite the texture, the naan is a great way to carry the flavors, textures, and delicious spices to your mouth. The onion naan is pretty sweet, while the garlic one is pretty neutral. The rice is also great and saves well - I usually get a meal or two with rice and naan and it lasts like 3 meals for me. I usually get it delivery, which is organized and really remarkably fresh. I’ve also eaten in, which was lovely! The food came out as it was ready, which is a great perk. Ive eaten a lot of Indian food and this is my fave spot in chicago. Check it out - you won’t regret it.
Im giving this restaurant 5 stars because food was truly tasty and everything was delicious!
Just know it’s expensive and about 90% of the menu is a dish sold separately. Nothing comes with your entree. So any rice, naan/Roti, even the sauces is an additional cost and must be ordered separately.
Every restaurant is different and this is how they do things, so just be ready to spend between $50 and $100 on 2 people depending what you order.
We spent close to 100 including tip. Food was delicious, but we won’t see this spot again unless it’s a VERY special occasion.
Really great Indian food! It wasn't as spicy as I expected unfortunately, so you might need to ask for it to be spicier(if that's what you want). Otherwise the flavors were incredible. We had the chicken 65, chili cauliflower, garlic naan and lamb vindaloo. Each were delicious in their own way: if I had to choose one I definitely would've gotten the lamb vindaloo again... Just with a bit more spice!
Food comes out super fast here and service is great so you won't need to worry about waiting too long!
I ordered takeout from here, hoping to find my new go-to Indian place and I was super impressed with this place. The butter chicken I ordered was flavorful and the samosas were the best I’ve had in a long time. Will order from here again and try another dish!

This placed served good food, chicken biryani tasted good. We've tried so many biryanis from Devon and I would say this one has the best. Made our chicken Tikka spicy like we wanted. Great customer service, good music. Don't ask for spicy if you can't handle it.
What an awesome place. Don't be mistaken by the look of the outside right now. It's definitely open but expanding. Entrance is at the corner of Ravenswood and Irving.
The food is so delicious and they have some really unique options.
Really delicious food and great service! We have eaten here and gotten take out and the quality of food has been great both times. The service is quick and polite, and we usually receive our food within 15 minutes of ordering. We recommend the aloo gobi and palak paneer. The entrees might be a little expensive if you buy several, but the food has always been really delicious.
Weather you love Indian cuisine or not, this place will sure leave you satisfied. I’ve turned many of my “picky eater” friends onto Indian cuisine from trying this restaurant. Pictured here is the tandori chicken with a side of vegetable samosas. The red sauce tends to be a little more sweet/spicy where the green sauce is more spicy and not so sweet. But if you enjoy spicy food then you can’t go wrong with either 😊 definitely would give this place a shoot 👍😊
Great new Indian place! I loved that the curries weren’t greasy like some places can be. Also, the Dosa was the best I’ve had. Nice and crispy! Our curries were pretty mild, so I will ask for some more spice next time we visit.
This is my favorite restaurant. The typical order we get is Veggie Samosas and Butter Paneer Masala with Garlic Naan. However, everything that we've tried there has been terrific.
The atmosphere there is extremely homey, especially being BYOB...LOVE grabbing a nice bottle wine to accompany the meal! Or if you just want to order to go and enjoy at home, then you're sure to be happily filled.
The chicken biryani is one of the best in the Chicago area. It's close to the Hyderabad biryani style. I have had several biryani from the Devon area but still this one is the best.
I absolutely love this place - everyone there is so nice and the food is delicious! Portions are generous and the prices are totally reasonable plus I always have enough left over to bring plenty home with me. AND they're open until 10pm on week nights!
