    The food is always flavorful and delicious. The owner is so friendly and helpful. Easy to enjoy a meal on my own or with others. It did not disappoint. Thank you!!

    Chicken Biryani lunch special
    Georgy D.

    This was my second time to Makki Grill in Palatine. The first time I had a gyro platter and it was ok. Probably 2.5 stars. This time I grabbed the Chicken "Biryani" lunch special. I put Biryani in quotes only because traditionally the meat and rice are supposed to be layered and made together. This was not the case here. Flavor wise it was ok, maybe 2.8/5. For $11 plus tax I thought the portion size was lacking. I would have expected a little bit more chicken and rice. Taking all this into account, food, flavor and cost I'd give it a 2.7 rounded up to 3 stars. It's ok in a pinch but definitely better options for both Gyros and Indian food nearby in terms of flavor and value. Hope they take this feedback seriously. Really focus on what kind of restaurant they want to be, either a few, stellar, fresh dishes or an assortment of mediocre lunch time takeaways.

    No frills just good food! First time at the Indian Bistro. It's the favorite restaurant for…read moresomeone we knew that lived in Arlington Heights. High prise I thought and I think I've gotten the love for Indian Bistro too! There's several tables available for dine in, but I think it's more a takeaway place. They had a table reserved for 8 in the corner by the front and apparently we were the honored party as we had the opportunity to dine there as we needed two tables. It's the best seat I thought since they literally handed the food to me over the counter once it was plated. The staff is super friendly and they made sure that our food was absolutely piping hot upon service. The value is solid. We had the chicken 65, butter chicken, and hakka noodles. While I thought the hakka noodles were a tad on the softer side the flavor was awesome. Butter chicken was rich and flavorful and the chicken 65 was my fav, reminded me of a similar Chinese dish. I'll definitely come back to try more of the menu.

    Ordered for pick-up via Uber Eats. I was very disappointed in the amount of rice that and the lack…read moreof chicken that came with the chicken tikka masala. For how much they charge, I would've expected a lot more. Other Indian restaurants typically give a lot more rice. The flavor was good but the chicken sort of tasted rubbery. My husband liked the chicken 65 and we both liked the roti. Most likely won't order from here again but glad we tried.

    Try FOI, you'll be happy you did! The food is fabulously fresh & assuredly authentic. (Confirmed by…read moretwo people: One who spent half-a-year in India; the other whom spent over a year in southeast Asia.) We've tried a variety of menu offerings & are looking forward to continue exploring & enjoying these blissful renderings of this cuisine. If you're new to this type of food I do recommend by opting for "mild" spice level to begin with. Then turn up the heat if you find something you like. Also starting with simpler items like buttered chicken, chicken fried rice, aloo gobi masala, garlic cheese naan, lamb rogan josh, samosas, shahi chicken korma or peas pulav might be good dishes to whet your palate. Again, start with "mild" spices then turn up the heat as you find dishes you prefer. This is an enticingly elevated win-win for small business expertise in general as well as Cary-area snackers & bon vivants. Bon appetit!

We're talking about a carryout or delivery only restaurant, it is not a dine-in place and thats fine by me. You can tell just by the aromas that the place scores in authenticism. Their menu is full if veg, non-veg snacks, entrees, both classic and Indo-Chinese On our first visit, we just ordered a few chicken dum biryanis and lamb rogan josh . Good marks. Decent basmati rice, tender chicken, fragrant, though I do not think this is cuisine of the northern region. Lamb rogan josh had that vibrant red color with a south Indian flair. I am so happy that they don't tone the spice levels down. FOI is a winner in my book. I have heard that other dishes are also worth trying. I have a feeling we won't be running to Schaumburg, Naperville, or Chicago quite as much.
