    Karachi Chatkhara is a newer Pakistani Restaurant that been open about 4 months in this area. It's right on Golf Road in a strip mall and very easy to get to with plenty of parking and no hassles like on Devon! It's a nice family run establishment with the food being halal freshly made daily and offering a huge variety of authentic Pakistani cuisine. Qiswa, her mom, dad and brother provide a nice clean peaceful dining experience. They even have a separate private prayer area too. We tried the Chicken Karahi and the Tandoori Chicken. Both were excellent! The Karahi was seasoned perfectly, not overly spiced, served hot with really fluffy naans. The tandoori chicken was boneless and burst with fresh flavors served with a very unique tasty homemade chutney. I like that the chicken had a nice char taste and was still moist and in bite size pieces. We ended our meal with piping hot chai and in-house made rubri kheer which was excellent. It wasn't overly sweet and had a very nice smooth and creamy texture. The food was so good that we ordered a carryout of puri halwa to have in the morning. The puri halwa was nicely packed and I like they put the chaana (garbanzo beans) and aloo bhujia (potato) separate as each has its own unique taste perfectly made! Karachi Chatkhara is a really nice place to have party events too as they also offer a separate banquet room and do catering. This is a perfect place to have a delicious tasty Pakistani meal in the Northwest suburbs and not have to drive all the way to Devon! Thank you Qiswa for making our dining experience memorable and delicious!

    My girlfriend and I happened to stumble upon Karachi Chatkhara while we were on a walk looking for a place to have dinner. They were holding a service for Ramadan and we went in to see if we were still allowed to dine in. Very soon upon entering, we were greeted with a warm, hospitable welcome where we were told they were currently only serving the buffet option for dinner (I think it runs for a couple hours before they go back to their regular menu options). We ended up giving it a shot and glad we did because it was a great opportunity to try many of the dishes they offer in the restaurant. Everything we had was very delicious and I would definitely return to eat here again. Looking around, you can see spaces of the restaurant preserved for religious prayer if needed. I personally enjoyed seeing that piece of culture and religion being preserved and valued.

The menu is pretty straightforward and service was pretty utilitarian as well. However, food did come out quickly. Unfortunately, the French toast came out at room temperature at best, and the syrup that was brought to the table before hand had already had a solidified top part. So it wasn't warm at all it in fact was cold. They're also very quick to clean tables and remove things from the table. In fact, my friend was still picking at her salad and they literally came by four times to try to take it away. I think this place is family owned small business type set up so it was great to see it busy and filled. I said service was utilitarian because I think we saw our waitress maybe twice all other things were done by the bus boys for refilling waters and coffees, etc.

They decorated it with hanging plants, some art, a fish tank. A slight haze of smoke. Desserts on display. I'd say the finest work of art here are the prepped skewers, waiting to be thrown on their charcoal grill. My gaze was fixed on the meat display as if I was Cookie Monster at Crumbl. I composed myself and took a seat. They have great hot and cold appetizers. They have breakfast! Check out their menu, I've included a pic. Lahmacun is a crunchy brick oven flatbread with ground meat. It feels so light, airy, and crunchy, you could eat the whole thing and later say "..um, I ate the whole thing". We ordered a few King Chef's mixed grill platters. It is a medley of filet morsels, chicken, lamb chops, shawarma, shish kebab, and many other things, along with bulgar and fries. Why are their fries so good? Okay, so I know we're just talking about lemonade, but their house made lemonade is so good. We also loved their tea. We went way overboard on desserts. We just kept pointing at sharable items like John Travolta to the Bee Gees. All of the desserts were delicious. For some reason, the simplest of them, rice pudding, won the dessert battle that day. They have plenty of intriguing items that will lure me back, and I'm looking forward to it!

There were ample hash browns cooked very nicely and the country fried steak was tender and well seasoned. It had a bit of a black pepper flavor. I also paid a bit extra for specialty pancakes because I am a huge fan of the red velvet pancakes. They are sweet and decadent but I can never pass up the opportunity. My daughter ordered the Açaí bowl which was a large portion and had ample ingredients with fruit and granola. It was nicely frozen and fresh. It was more than enough to fill her.

Parlor Donuts is probably the nicest donut shop I've ever been in. Nicely furnished , products displayed well and just a bright and cheery atmosphere. Besides donuts, they serve breakfast sandwiches and various coffee type drinks. The choices are numerous and if I hadn't been on the website the night before, it would have taken far longer for me to make a decision. I tried the Coconut cream filled and my wife, the Lemon Bar. They were delicious! I tried the Lemon Bar as well. A huge difference with these donuts are they are described as "Sweet Layered Donuts" and remind me of a "Kronut" which is basically a croissant dough made into a donut type creation. Flavors are abundant and creative like French Toast, Bourbon Caramel, Raspberry Pistachio and Peanut Butter Cup. Despite the nice environment and delicious donuts, I found them to be quite expensive so as a daily donut and bagel aficionado, Parlor would not be a regular stop. Also, there are no cake or more traditional donuts-only the spectacular ones! They are usually eaten with a knife and fork. The plastic utensils provided are not robust enough to use on these. I was surprised how large this donut chain is. There are several in my home state of Michigan and I believe they are currently in sixteen states with nearly a hundred locations nationally. Very good, creative treats in a very nice environment is a recipe for success.

They have plenty of parking outside the shop, but it does get busy when they get busy during peak times. The donuts are made fresh daily and you can taste the quality. You also can't go wrong with any of their fun drinks! Also if you come back often be sure to download the app for fun rewards and perks. I know I've been racking up my points every time I come by
