This is a must visit if you're in the area... or even if you travel here. My first time visit blew me away with the warm, inviting interior, and charming owner. He explained everything to us and we selected a samosa chat, a favorite of mine, and my dining companion ordered the lava chicken. The owner explained the dish to us and convinced us it was a must have. Must have? Yes... MUST HAVE!!! It's a sweet and deliciously spiced dish that Is pretty mild given the explosively fiery name. Delicious texture to the chicken with a light crunchy, not breaded, and the sauce? OMG!!! Travel here from Arizona if need be. The mango lassi was spot on delicious but the lavender smooth? It's from another world that is full of peace and happiness. Seriously... no exaggeration. Come and experience. read more

Very hit or miss. Visited for the first time with my Indian husband. Lava chicken - fantastic Garlic naan - delicious Tandoori Chicken breast - pretty good. But no knives were available to cut it in half for easier eating with all of the American additives (lettuce tomato etc) Butter chicken loaded fries - very disappointing. Clearly frozen fries with lackluster butter chicken. Good serving size for $9 but better quality in a smaller portion would be a better combination Counter service. That's fine. Although I asked for no onions on the lava chicken and got them anyway. But they did fine around later and asked how things were But surroundings are pretty shabby. Better option for carry out I'd think. read more

First time coming here and it was amazing! I got the chicken tikka mascara and it was delicious! The service as above and beyond. They explained the menus and the dishes and made some suggestions. I also had the Lychee Lassi drink and it helped cut the spice nicely. 10 out of 10! Highly recommend! read more

Burger Naan - Chicken takki masala - Burgers Near Me - DeKalb, Illinois

Burger Naan is my favorite Indian fusion food. I have been in multiple times and tried various items on the menu. The owner goes over the whole menu and suggests what are favorites. You can either eat there or take it to go either way you wont be disappointed. I will definitely be back to try more of the amazing food. My favorite items on the menu that are traditional is the butter chicken, chicken tikki marsala, Lava chicken, and chicken biriyani. My favorite infusions are butter chicken mac and cheese, the Gyro, butter chicken quesodilla. I really enjoy all the flavors. The Lassi drinks are really good too. read more

Checked out this kind of new restaurant in DeKalb. It isn't a typical burger restaurant because it has Indian flavors too. Burger Naan is like some kind of American and Indian fusion cuisine. Get food that looks a lot like fast food but is much better tasting and fresher. The prices aren't that bad and you still get a lot. Basically this is one of the few places in town to get Indian cuisine. It's more of a place for classic items like biryani and chana masala than it is burgers to be honest. There are a lot of fusion sandwiches though. Basically authentic flavors that are hand held. This is their idea of the street food style. It's about $7 for the Samosa Burger. This is like a burger except it has a samosa patty, and is topped with green chutney, lettuce, onions, tamarind sauce, and tomatoes. Add a few more bucks to make it a combo. This adds a drink and fries. For sure it's one of the few places around here to get Indian cuisine. It's pretty authentic Indian cuisine as well as far as flavors. There's burgers as well as plenty of things for vegans and vegetarians. read more

Very good. I ordered the Paneer Tikka Quesadilla which I found delicious. Next time I'll ask for a side of Sour Cream or yogurt they use for dipping. Would be a nice contrast with it I think. My husband enjoyed the Butter Chicken Burrito which he also really enjoyed. Clean, owners are very friendly. Will go back for sure. read more

I ordered a butter chicken with two regular naans to go. The staff are so nice and the serving was so fast. The butter chicken tasted ok, but was too sweet compared to other restaurants that I've tried. Might be a good option for fast to-go Indian food. read more

Food was delicious and plentiful. Owner took the time to explain the whole menu. Smoothies were awesome as well, Will definitely be back!

Visited for the first time, amd will definitely return. The owner, Nasar, was extremely cordial, explained the menu in detail, and made several recommendations. Have always wanted to try butter chicken, and it did not dissapoint, along with the garlic naan. Nasar even brought us extra naan when he noticed we still had extra sauce left over. Can't wait to come back and try something new!!! read more

Wow! Everything we had here was amazing. It is a walk up counter where you can order and owners and staff were all amazing. I was with my family of 3 and we couldn't decide, so we each got to choose an item as we planned all sharing it family style anyways and we were blown away. The portions are nice, the flavors definitely met my standards. It was filled with herbs, spices, tartness, saltiness and sweetness. I ate the garlic Naan with everything. It wasn't busy when we arrived, but it's a smaller restaurant with plenty of seating. Well maintained, clean and nice ambiance that played great music in the background. There's so many other items on the menu that we would like to try. We will probably be in the area more often and will plan on returning to try others. Great addition to the Dekalb area! read more

I've been wanting to try Burger Naan since it opened, and I'm so glad I finally got it tonight. Burger Naan is an Indian fusion restaurant specializing in classic Indian dishes like butter chicken and tikka masala and fusion foods like the tandoori chicken sandwich and gyro naan. Tonight, we got the poutine, butter chicken sandwich, and beef seekh kabob. We also tried the strawberry bubble drink and mango lassi. Poutine: 7/10 crispy fries, rich gravy, and cheese curds. The poutine was pretty good, but I would skip this next time to try the butter chicken mac and cheese or wings. Butter chicken sandwich: 8/10 really crispy chicken, delicious sauce, soft and soft bun. I wish that the chicken was a bit thicker and there was a stronger butter chicken flavor, but good overall. Beef seekh kabob: 8/10 the flavor of the beef and rice was delicious, but it was all slightly dry. The sauce served on the side definitely helped though. On top of the great food, they also have EXCELLENT service. The owner took our order and was so kind and patient. While we were eating a family came in and we heard him explain every dish on the menu to them. A little bit after, another customer came in and asked if they had non dairy options for their bubble drinks. The owner said they didn't but asked what she preferred so he could keep it in the restaurant for her the next time she came in. The owner and his family are so kind, and I can't wait to come back to try some of the other menu options. read more

I wanted to like this place because I love Indian food and for the sake of the people of Dekalb I want there to be good Indian food here. This was close but not quite it... I got the chana masala with garlic naan. I think it would be more accurate to call the chana masala "chana butter masala". I guess it may be technically correct to call their version just "chana masala" (I mean, it had chana and masala) but every dish with this name that I've ever tried has been chickpeas in a tangy tomato-based gravy with little to no cream. Theirs came swimming in the same creamy sauce used for butter chicken or butter paneer. The etymology is not my actual issue with the dish - it may not have been what I was expecting, but for what it was, it had the right flavours, and I love saucy curries. It just had way too much butter! I know it's common to drizzle a little butter/ghee over the gravy to finish, but this was like spoonfuls of butter plopped onto this dish - the resulting layer on top was thick enough that until I mixed it together, when I tried to dip my naan in the gravy, it just came out with butter. I really thought I had eaten Indian food that was too oily before, but this was another level. It would've been so good if they didn't saturate it with butter! Garlic naan (one portion is actually 2 smallish pieces) was very good. Pillowy and soft with a little char and lots of fresh garlic (not overkill, though) and cilantro, not too buttery... no complaints. The rose milk lassi was fine, but it was another case where the name was misleading. I don't think this was actually a yogurt-based lassi, just flavoured milk. I didn't care for the artificial bright pink colour, but the taste was like any standard rose-flavoured milk. The fruit jellies were actually very good and had a tropical taste that complemented the rose well. The owners were very nice and I got the sense that they are passionate about the business. The atmosphere was cozy, but using a plastic takeout container for the curry detracts from that homey feeling. There were things about the food I liked, but I just wouldn't order a curry here again if they don't cut back on the butter. If you order here, maybe you could request no extra butter added? read more

It is newly open in Dekalb. Next to the Egyptian theater it was a big fuss at first because we all needed Indian fusion with American all in one places. I had the butter chicken it was ok but not what I expected the sauce had no taste pretty bland. I order the beef kabobs the rice or try dry but plenty of it. What I truly enjoy is as t h chicken wings it was the best I ever had. The fusion flavor was like barbecue tangy truly very delicious I give them 10 stars for it I will return to try the huge naan burgers Come and try this new restaurant It was very delicious read more

I have to start off by saying I loved everything about this place! The very hospitable owner and head chef greeted me at the counter and explained his four different, creative menus which were all filled with delicious items! I ended up getting the butter chicken burrito, which was flavorful and unique, something I've never seen before! I ordered a side of fried mushrooms as well and it was very tasty. The next time I'm in town I'll definitely try their other items read more

How do I start this review... First off, the atmosphere in this restaurant is absolutely astounding absolutely bamboozeling. Secondly, the owner is like a father to me atp, when I needed him the most, he was there. Lastly, the food is basically like entering heaven itself, like getting tucked in tightly and getting a goodnights kiss on the head. 10/10 would come everyday if I could :) We are Burger Naan read more

The staff is amazing and so kind! :) The chicken biryani is the best. I think this is a good start for folks who are intimated by trying new foods. I have friends who have never had Indian/South Asian food and the pairing of Indian flavors with familiar vehicles eased them into the world of flavor. lol. read more

I went after my MRI. Really good place, I wish they had it in Rockford too! I ordered chicken tikka burrito ($9) and garlic naan ($2-3). Burrito was more than enough to fill me up and the garlic naan smelled so good I had to take a bite first! Nice casual in dining. read more

Food is always super tasty! The service is timely as well, and the staff is super nice! The interior is always super well kept and clean.

The food was delicious and the owner was very accomodating and friendly! Palak paneer was not too spicy at all - yay! Samosas were a bit spicy, but the tamarind chutney cooled them off nicely. Lassis were delightful. There's something for everyone here. Will definitely be back! read more

They prices always different from home website prices they need to fix the prices & improve customer service

We had five different entrees: naan burger, samosa burger, falafel burrito, chicken biryani, and butter chicken burrito. My wife also got poutine. The food was all really good. In fact, my wife said it's the best poutine she's ever had. The atmosphere was very nice. The restaurant is bright and clean. The planters with culinary herbs and decorative plants are a really nice touch. We were there in the middle of the afternoon, so it was not very busy. The owner-chef brought out our food, and was able to chat for a little bit. He was very friendly and obviously really loves his restaurant. The kids are already planning what to get next time we go! read more

Fresh food with a nice mixed menu. Fried cauliflower is fantastic. Clean, quiet restaurant with friendly service.

I initially heard about this place during Corn Fest but they weren't open yet and it's been on my mind ever since. We came early on a Saturday night and it was pretty busy for 5pm. The service was very friendly but a bit slow. I tried the mango lassi which was very light and refreshing. I also ordered the butter chicken mac & cheese which was SO good! It wasn't very spicy but still full of flavor and the cheese pill was immaculate. The prices are very reasonable too. read more

Very friendly server. A lot of tasty food. Fair prices. Went before a show at the Egyptian. Definitely will go back!

I haven't had Indian and American fusion before, but it's incredible here! I got the tikka chicken burrito, and it was fantastic. The portions came out just right to be filling, and they give you a side of the curry to dip the burrito in--definitely takes it up a notch. It was simple, but simply delicious. It was around $10 for the burger, which was brought up to around $13-14 for the combo (soda and fries), but I felt it was adequately priced. read more

My fiancé and I were so excited to hear we were getting a new Indian restaurant! Mostly known for their street food fusion, they also carry traditional Indian food such as samosa, chicken biryani and butter chicken to name a few. We've never had Indian food before so we were very excited to try this restaurant! They just opened so the service is a little on the busy side, but the wait is so worth it! The staff working there are very nice and we were offered a sample of their mango lassi. Wow! This drink was so delicious! I've never had it before but this is going to be something I order every time I come here! It's like a mango flavored yogurt beverage. It's so creamy, rich in that mango flavor and it doesn't taste overly sweet at all! We had ordered the butter chicken with the regular flavor naan on the side. It also comes in either butter or garlic! But this butter chicken was phenomenal! It tasted so fresh and delicious with that nice blend of spices and tomato flavor curry. It was so good that we wolfed this food up and we had planned to save a bit for lunch the next day. It was that delicious! We also ordered their veggie samosa and this was also very good! A hard, crunchy outer shell with a very soft, savory stuffing. The textures were on point and adding the dipping sauce on the side also gives it a nice spice kick! Overall, this was an incredibly delicious meal that we can't wait to try more of! read more

Overall good experience. This was actually second time. Clean, quiet and nice restaurant. Owner is very helpful and friendly. Previously had the tandoor chicken burrito and the butter chicken plate - both fantastic. This time I had the falafel - which was okay, but not spectacular. Looking forward to something different next time. Worth a try! read more

I am here traveling on a business trip. I came here with coworkers where we treated exceptionally by the staff. They explained the end to us very well. And gave us a dessert "on the house". I had the gyro naan. The meat was the best I have had and I really enjoyed the sauce. The naan was amazing as well. I ordered fries on the side which were also crisp and tasty. A coworker bought us all samosas and that was the highlight of my night. It was delicious and came with a sweet & spicy sauce that I will be dreaming about for days. The dessert "on the house" was the mango Lassi. I enjoyed this beverage quite a lot! Overall, I'm disappointed we live 4 hours away. I will be thinking about this meal for several months. SO DELICIOUS! read more

Only an extra star for my 1st visit when a woman was in the kitchen. I ordered poutine. Instead of cheese curds, I received melted mozzarella cheese in my fries. Called, talked to the manager, who was rude, condesending and combative. I remained civil, yet firm that what I requested, I did not receive and would not be talked to in such a way. If I could rate this a -0, I would have. My 2nd visit was the poutine and some other food to-go. No, I would not recommend this place, ever! read more

The Butter Chicken Burrito is the perfect lunch, prepared by the sweetest people on earth. My go-to lunch

We tried this place on a recommendation and it did not disappoint! The food was amazing. We tried the paneer tikka masala and the paneer fries as well as wings, a chicken sandwich and poutine! Everything was so delicious. The owner and staff are a delight. Customer service we top notch. The owner even gave us mango lassi to try! It was so tasty and he educated us on how it's made. We "bonded" over him being from Canada and us just having visited. Street fusion is the way to go, we were also told more items will be hitting the menu soon! So excited for this place & its success. read more
