"It feels like I am eating food not in America, but in India! Perfect Masala Dosa, perfect rice, perfect everything!!! I miss India so much, and this dishes are sending me back to my trip to Kerala"
"I have not done a review yet because I am new to this, and I wanted my first one to be one that I absolutely felt something about before writing a review. Udupi Palace mentions that some of its items are up to 70% less than in the area, something I found to be true only on one of my items the Mulligatawany Soup. This happens to be one of my favorite soups! I am used to looking in it and seeing a variety of ingredients in an appetizing mix with a beautiful aroma! This was a bowl of brown liquid soup with nothing noticeable in it other than broth and a few pieces of spice!
As I looked through most of the entrées, I was worried that so many of them were fried that they would not travel well. The masala dosa arrived lukewarm, and not much taste. I do not like leaving a negative review! Especially for my first one. However, I spent over a decade living blocks from Devon Avenue! Before I found the restaurant that I used to love, which moved, I spent five years or more trying many different Indian restaurants! Usually you end up with leftovers, the amount was slightly less than I am used to getting. In conclusion, I would not order from this restaurant again. I did not like sounding so harsh, but what good is a review if it is not completely honest!"

"A wonderful and healthy option that brings the taste of home. I would absolutely recommend it with a 10/10 rating. My only concern is with the packaging lid—it seems a bit weak and can get damaged during delivery, sometimes leading to spillage."
"I would rate this store poorly based on my experience with the food i received. The dhokla, kachori chaat, kadhi, and mirchi bhajiya were all cold, and both the fafda and jalebi were not fresh. Overall, I’m highly disappointed with the quality."

"Paneer Masala Sandwich and Paneer Toofani Sandwich were great as always. It was filled with Paneer and cheese which made it heavy and filling and it was full of flavors. Paneer Tikka Wrap had slightly less filling and could have been filled more but taste was it was pretty good and flavorful."
"The Paneer Kadai was rich, flavorful, and perfectly spiced — just like a proper Indian dhaba-style dish, with soft paneer soaking in that bold masala. But the real star was the Rabdi — thick, creamy, and beautifully sweet with hints of cardamom and saffron. It tasted just like home, pure comfort in every bite!"

"Excellent food. Ordered Chicken Biryani. Portion was enough for at least two meals. It arrived piping hot, and sealed well.
Unfortunately, I failed to request utensils. :(
Good thing I also order some garlic Naan to eat it the traditional way. :)"
"The Veg. Platter (Chef Recommended) is so good! Plenty to share, tasty, nice variety of delicious foods.
We love the Kasmari Naan. It is gently flavored, just a little sweet, but not so much that it can only sit at the dessert table. Kasmari Naan can sit at any table.
Everything was packed so well, I was expecting a few things to have spilled in the process, but everything was perfect and closed tight. It was warm, fresh, and wonderful.
I could say so much more, and all of it would be enthusiastically positive. We hope to order from this restaurant again in the future."

"I’ve ordered from Urban Turban by VeerGi multiple times, and this order was another great experience. The Chole Bhatura was excellent, with flavorful chole that had a rich, well-balanced spice profile and tasted freshly prepared. The bhaturas were soft, fluffy, and generously sized, making the portion more than satisfying.
The food arrived well packaged, and everything was still fresh when I opened it. I especially appreciated that the curry was packed securely with no spills or leaks. The quality and consistency have been impressive across multiple orders, which is one of the reasons I keep coming back.
The portions offer great value for the price, and the flavors feel authentic and comforting. It’s not always easy to find restaurants that consistently deliver both quality and quantity, but Urban Turban has done that for me. The ingredients tasted fresh, the food was filling, and the overall experience exceeded expectations.
Highly recommend the Chole Bhatura to anyone looking for a satisfying meal. Looking forward to ordering again soon!"
"Paneer Tikka Blaze is undercooked, hard and marination is still raw. Has no flavour and is terribly overpriced."

"Best biryani I've had in Chicago so far . The chilly chicken biryani was spicy and flavourful which was exactly what I was looking for. The paneer biryani had a unique taste. "
"The Rasmalai (3 pieces) was good, not great. But the other dishes were a huge improvement from the last time. The Chicken Roast will last for a long while because there was so much, and it was complex and delicious. The Tandoori Chicken (2 pieces) was succulent, and the Goat Dum Biryani was also delicious and, again, came packed to the brim. The Railway Station Onion Samosa (5pieces) are always great."

Fantastic quality food and flavors, will absolutely order from here again. Wow! "
"This order was all really really bad; especially considering for the price of each dish. The Chicken Tikka Masala was way too heavy with the cream and you only get a pint for the hefty price tag. The side of Makhani sauce *12oz was filled only about halfway in the container and tasted pretty much like cream of tomato soup. When you're craving Indian food and end up paying over $50 for subpar food, super disappointing."

the pizzas are also very good in general (the samosas take the cake, but the pizzas are still awesome sauce) i got the Firecracker Pizza🔥 and it's less flavorful than the samosas (or rather the sauces), but still amazing and pretty sweet and the size i ordered came with ranch which helps with the flavor difference!!"

I think i may order something different from there tonight. The keema samosas I had never had before! Would absolutely get again."
"I bought the $12 butter chicken meal, and decided to add na'an on for a little over $2. For the entire meal, it was filling, and the butter chicken had great flavor. There was a good amount of rice. However, I will say that the value of the na'an is not there. For over $2, it is about the size of my hand. Usually, you expect to get na'an that is thinner and way larger. This one does not have much flavor and it is a bit dry. I believe the na'an is not worth it, and think they could make it larger. The butter chicken itself is a smaller container, but for the price getting it delivered it is fair. I would come back again to try something new!"

"Delicious food! Vegetable Samosas were large and crispy. The Chicken Tikka Masala and Saag Gosht were super flavorful, and the Onion Kulcha was a great vehicle for the entrees. Will definitely be a new favorite spot of mine. "
"Chicken tikka masala is tender and flavorful. Good ratio of sauce to chicken. Doesn't skimp on the meat like other places I've ordered from. Vegetable curry was also tasty and a good portion. Both came with rice. Garlic naan is pretty standard."

"Very good spot, will be our new be go-to for Indian! Vegetable Samosas came in 2 per order, accidentally ordered three. I wish they weren't as salty but still tasted good. We got medium spice chicken Tikka masala (good level of spice that grows as you eat and flavorful sauce, more than just that tomato taste some spots have) butter chicken was incredibly creamy and also cooked well, got spicy and could've gotten a level up. chicken biryani was also flavorful and the lemon wedge helps brighten up the flavor. also tried garlic naan (would order again, solid garlic taste) and the tandoori roti is good for eating with."
"The lamb Korma was good. There were only 4 pieces of lamb chunks in mine. Ordered it with Mild spice and it was VERY spicy. Thought it was going to be mild and couldn't finish it, due to the heat.
My mom, who also had the same as me, agreed on the spice level and also, did not eat it.
We ordered extra rice and it comes in a take out box enough for 2-4 to share. We ordered 2 extra sides of rice and it was wayyy too much. We called to ask the size of extra rice and was told "medium size" More like extra large. But we love the rice, so happy we have tons leftover. Overall, good place. Flavors were good, meat was tender. The GARLIC NAAN. Is FIRE!!! So freaking good.
It's good for at home delivery when we cant get to our go to places, Red Tomatoes or Indian Bistro.
Will order again. Thank you.

"Been eating here for a while, most of the dishes I've had were great, especially the chicken boti and the veggie biryani, watch out for bones in some dishes. The prices have definitely gone up, and portions have always been pretty good. Overall a little expensive, but a few people should be happy and full and/or last you a few good meals."
"Terrible food. The Sabri Nihari meat quality was so bad and the flavor wasn't good. Chicken Seekh Kabob was drier than tires, I threw it out. The Haleem didn't taste good and was very watery. Very very disappointing. Don't waste your money here. You'll pay for food you will have to throw out."

"I used to eat at this authentic Indian restaurant when I was living in Japan and I thought it was the best place ever. That was until I had Rangoli! Rangoli is so damn good! The rice is perfect EVERYTIME! The sauce is spot on with flavor EVERYTIME! The NAAAAAAANNNNN!!! OMG! My mouth is watering just thinking about it! I get Rangoli almost every night! And I'm about to get it again right now! So should you! "
"I order here all the time and have never had an issue. But when I ordered Butter Chicken I got 4 medium size pieces of chicken. Normally it's much more than that. And for $17.50 it felt like a bit of a rip off. Other than that the flavor was great as always."

Everything arrived neatly packaged, the portions were satisfying, and the food quality was excellent. This has been one of my favorite meals recently, and I’ll definitely be ordering from here again. Highly recommended!"

"This was such a great experience! The Paneer Makhani (Butter Paneer) had lots of paneer, not just sauce. They also wrote us a kind note and gave us a free dessert and side of rice. It's a smidge pricey, but I'll totally reorder! Plus, everything was very carefully packed, included the Mango Lassi, which didn't spill at all. Thanks!"
"This place is AMAZING. Best samosas I've had - so crispy & perfectly seasoned. The green chutney could be spicier & better seasoned but thats my only note. The korma is 1 million/10, the chilli masala is also excellent (ordered it extra spicy & it delivered). Garlic naan is soft, chewy & delicious. Highly recommend!"
