    Dhaba Noodles
    Kendra M.

    My goal is to try 50 new Chicago restaurants in 2025! Restaurant: 34/50 Month tried: June Favorite dish: Dhaba Noodles; Chicken Korma Excellent food, experience, staff, drinks...10/10 recommend! Our server described their menu as "Indian-Midwest Fusion" aka Indian food with more bread and cheese. But every menu item was really unique and well executed. It's a pretty seasonal menu, so the things we ordered might not still be available, but the highlights were for sure the Manchurian Potatoes, Baos (eggplant and pork), Dhaba Noodles, and chicken korma. The chicken korma especially was really unique. We also had naan with a couple sauces and honestly I would happily have a meal of just naan and sauce. Topped it all off with their iconic ice cream sandwich. I've been dying to get back to Superkhana since the day we tried it. Honestly, my procrastination on writing my reviews may pay off, because I'm going to go make a reservation right now...

    Chocolate Pudding

    Really interesting fusion of Indian food which is always exciting to me. We had a palak paneer pizza that was really delicious. The highlight for me was the eggplant and cauliflower bao buns (the buns are made in house) which was really unique. I was not as impressed with dessert-- we got a chocolate pudding which tasted great but it felt like a defrosted frozen dessert. Vibes were great, service was excellent and friendly. I would come back and try more of the menu too.

    3.5 stars (brunch) The starters we shared were quite good: -fruit chaat ($9): seasonal fruit, mint syrup, kalonji candied cashews -French toast ($19): gahar halva, almond dukkah, gulab jamun syrup The fruit chaat was a nice way to start the meal. That drizzle of mint syrup made the fruit taste delightfully refreshing. I also loved the candied cashews for the extra crunch and flavor. For my entree, I opted for the dosa hash ($19). I think this is a vegetarian option because the hash is made up of cabbage, kari leaf, 2 sunny side up eggs + chili crisp. And potatoes. I'm sure of some potatoes. I mean, the dosa was cool, but the hash was pretty bland despite being topped with chili crisp. I had bites of the spicy beef hash and eggs ($19) and the big beefy sandwich ($16). Personally, I felt like the beef was too heavy to be a breakfast protein. Again, I like the fun fusion-y flavors, but I didn't love anything from our brunch spread. Honestly, I was hoping their brunch would include some or any of their calzones. Unfortunately, brunch is strictly brunch, so really my bad for thinking otherwise. Should I come back, I'd definitely stop by for their dinner menu.

    Pulled pork bao
    Gauri S.

    Highly recommend making reservations, the place was absolutely packed when we visited on a Saturday. Even with a reservation, we had to wait a few minutes before getting seated. We kicked things off with the pulled pork bao, which was bursting with flavor. The buns were soft and perfectly made. The drinks were on the stronger side, which we didn't mind at all. Next up was the much-hyped butter chicken calzone, and it absolutely lived up to the expectations--perfect for sharing between two. We were especially curious about the Maggi noodle Bolognese, and it turned out to be another standout dish with bold flavors and a generous amount of meat. Our friends tried the Palak Paneer pizza and really enjoyed it as well. For dessert, we had the Parle-G ice cream sandwich--kulfi lovers will appreciate this one. It's rich with pistachio flavor thanks to the toppings. A few of the dishes took longer to arrive as one of our orders was mistakenly sent to another table, but the staff made up for it by comping our desserts, which was a thoughtful gesture. All in all, it's a fantastic spot for Indian fusion cuisine, creative, flavorful, and well worth a visit.

    The butter chicken calzone was one of the best things I've ever had. Such a creative take on a calzone and a fun way to mix those things. The pizza was also really nice with the fusion of different cheeses and meats and Indian spices. Love the vibe of the place and if you are looking for a India fusion place, this is your spot

    Uttapam (Savory Griddle Cakes, Peas, Thai Chiles, Coconut Chutney, $15)
    Tabitha W.

    I walked by this place and was excited by the menu. We decided to make a point to go here for brunch. I had the French Toast (Gajar Halva, Almond Dukkah, Gulab Jamun Syrup, $19), and my husband had the Uttapam (Savory Griddle Cakes, Peas, Thai Chiles, Coconut Chutney, $15). I look forward to my next opportunity to try more of their menu.

    Superkhana ice cream sandwich
    Jill R.

    We had an incredible and unique dining experience at Superkhana. It started off great because it was incredibly easy to park in front of the restaurant. When we entered, it was packed with people and we were seated in the back where we could see the kitchen staff preparing all the foods. Everything looked clean and pristine, with the plates artistically stacked and all the food beautifully plated. We had incredible service from the wait staff. Everything came out quickly but it was perfectly spaced. I had a non-alcoholic chamomile lemonade made with Topo Chico that I absolutely loved. My husband had an old-fashioned made with Mezcal and our friend had a beautiful looking purple drink called Stardrop that was made with rum and plum liqueur. We started off our meal with the eggplant bao appetizer, which was just delicious with an aioli sauce . We also had the little gem salad with kohlrabi. The dressing definitely had some kick to it and it was one of my favorite things on the menu. We were really fortunate in that the restaurant brought us the Manchurian potato appetizer on the house. These potatoes were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside with another delicious aioli sauce. For our main dish, we shared the palak paneer calzone that we split between the four of us. (one of the staff expertly cut it for us so we each had an even amount) This calzone was an interesting blend of paneer with the classic calzone doughy outside. We also had the margarita pizza which to be honest looked just like any classic margarita pizza but the spices made it extra special. We ended our meal with the Superkhana ice cream sandwiches. The portion size was small but packed with flavor and the cardamom ice cream was definitely exceptional. Superkhana was an interesting blend of modern Indian spices with classic foods like pizza and calzones. We are looking forward to coming back here again and trying all the other things on the menu. This is definitely a great dining experience for the culinarily adventurous. Great atmosphere, outstanding service, and an overall fun and unique dining experience.

    Ice cream sandwich
    Emily S.

    We tried 3 dishes: Brussels sprout salad, potatoes, and the butter chicken calzone. Also had the chai and dessert! We thought the first two were stand outs but the calzone was pretty bland Wonderful service, very helpful with the menu! Beautiful restaurant, very hip.

    Full five stars and I don't say that lightly. Lovely happy hour menu both for drinks and amazing Indian "calzones". Entrees are better than they need to be even for a Bib Gourmand. The "bolognese" and pork were killer. Family friendly for our toddler too! Will be back.

    Butter chicken calzone
    Yemna K.

    As a South Asian, I love fusion foods. The menu is small but creative. The decor is fun and colorful and the staff is excellent. I highly recommend this place for drinks, desserts, and ambiance but not the food. I expected more spice and flavor. We ordered the potatoes, kadu noodles and the butter chicken calzone and the parle g ice cream sandwiches. The noodles were absolutely bland and though the calzone shell was perfect (fluffy, crunchy) the butter chicken was awful. It tasted purely of garam masala without being mixed. The ice cream sandwich was delicious! Candied pistachios with kulfi ice cream, it made up for the rest of the meal. Ultimately, disappointing. The flavors just aren't there for me. Though, I would return for drinks and desserts.

    Manchurian potatoes
    Ankita S.

    I can say without a doubt and without needing to give it another thought that this is one of the best meals I have ever had! I don't even remember how I found this place, but I am so glad I did. My husband and I did date night here while we were in Chicago for a couple weeks. Reservations were easy to make (and highly recommended). From the outside, it looks like such a little unassuming place. When we entered, we were greeted immediately by the hostess who was super sweet and seated us immediately. The decor inside was gorgeous - we loved the colors and the pink light accents on the ceiling. We were seated in the corner of the booth which was super comfy and was a cozy little spot. Louis (unsure if I spelled that correctly), was our waiter and took excellent care of us. My husband got their special Old Fashioned and I got the Watermelon Salad. My husband enjoyed his drink a lot and I was super pleasantly surprised by my drink - I was curious about the cumin tequila, but I'm happy to say it is much tastier than it sounds! The cumin was definitely noticeable but in a good way. I loved my drink, very unique, and something I would get again. For our dinner, we split the palak paneer pizza, the Manchurian potatoes, and two pieces of the eggplant bao. We also got an individual side of the chile crisp from the spicy bowls. OH. MY. GOD. It was all amazing! The potatoes were SO CRISPY. We asked how they made them this crispy and it's apparently a three-day process! In addition to the texture, the flavor was similarly perfect. It went so well with the chile crisp as well! The pizza was delicious! There's no actual paneer in the pizza, but there is plenty of spinach and crispy shallots. I was a little skeptical about the pizza, but rest assured: we swiftly finished the entire pizza. The showstopper in my opinion, though, was the eggplant bao. As a vegetarian, I rarely ever get to have baos, so I jumped on this opportunity. It was divine! The eggplant was cooked great, the flavor was great, and the addition of cauliflower was top notch. The bao was soft and fluffy. I need more of this in my life. My husband ended the meal with a hot chai - he had wanted it with whole milk, but they had run out, so he got the oat milk instead. It was also great! It came with two Parle-G biscuits, which is SO OG! Dipping the biscuit in the chai brought me straight back to India and my parents' home. I will be talking about this meal to whoever will listen for months to come! They have a very well deserved Michelin Bib Gourmand award.

    Superkhana International is easily one of the most creative and exciting brunch spots in Chicago. Their menu brings bold Indian flavors with a modern, playful twist, and everything I've tried has been delicious, well-balanced, and packed with depth. On top of that, the service is absolutely amazing--the staff is warm, attentive, and always happy to make recommendations. What I Absolutely Love: Bombay Sandwich - My absolute favorite! This is a perfectly toasted, flavor-packed sandwich with all the classic street food vibes--crispy, spicy, tangy, and just ridiculously good. Bun Omelette - Comfort food at its finest. A soft, buttery bun paired with a perfectly spiced Indian-style omelet, this dish is simple yet incredibly satisfying. Poha - Light, fragrant, and beautifully spiced, this flattened rice dish is a brunch must-try. Drinks That Elevate the Meal: Mango Lassi - Thick, creamy, and so refreshing! It has just the right balance of sweetness and tanginess--one of the best I've had! Chai - Incredibly aromatic and perfectly spiced! A comforting, authentic cup that pairs beautifully with any dish. Why I Love Superkhana for Brunch: Creative yet authentic flavors that feel fresh and exciting Perfectly balanced dishes--bold but never overpowering A fun, welcoming atmosphere that makes you want to stay awhile Incredible service--friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive Great mix of classic Indian flavors with playful, modern touches If you're looking for a brunch that's different from the usual pancakes and eggs, Superkhana International is a must-visit. I'll keep coming back for the Bombay Sandwich, Bun Omelette, and Mango Lassi, but honestly, everything here is worth trying!

    The pasta - lamb and beef - too rich
    Genna G.

    Loved the atmosphere- a lively, artsy restaurant with a great energy. Our waitress was fantastic and the service was great ( once we were actually seated ). This Indian fusion place was really unique . We ordered the potatoes which were an Indian take on the Spanish dish of patatas bravas ( good). We also had the butter chicken calzone ( good). The butter lettuce leaf salad was just ok . We also had the lamb and beef pasta ( pretty good however a little too rich ). We ended our meal with the pistachio ice cream sandwiches which were excellent. It' was a pretty heavy meal and when I return next time, I'm going to be in search of balancing and the meal better with healthier/ lighter options . Overall, very good. Tip- Go with a group to this restaurant so that you can share more items - lots of interesting menu options to choose from. Recommend.

Business picked up a little over the next hour, but generally speaking it seems Thursdays are slow. The restaurant is beautiful. There were two people working out front. They were kind, but not overly ebullient. When ordering we asked if one serving of rice would be enough for two. She suggested we order two servings. We didn't need two servings. One bowl of the Basmati Rice was plenty for two...at least these two. I decided I wanted to try something different. We have had Momo before, but nothing like Chicken Momo Chili Fry (steamed dumplings of minced chicken seasoned with nepalese spices and herbs | fried | sauteed with green chili, bell peppers, onions, ginger and spicy garlic-chili paste). What an amazing dish! I'm not a huge fan of super spicy food, but the Chicken Momo Chili Fry was outstanding. The spiciness was spicy flavor, not just heat. They were delicious. And the veggies (green peppers and onions) were so tender and flavorful. If you are a fan of spicy then you need to try this dish. You will not be disappointed. Keeping with the 'trying new things' theme, I ordered Gorkhali Khasi (chunks of bone-in goat meat stewed in flavourful nepalese spices | a delicious spice forward sauce with tomatoes, onions and nepalese spices) with a side of Basmati Rice. The dish was very tasty, but the bone-in goat was a lot of work. Once off the bone (though I still ended up with bones in my mouth, which was nerve wracking) some of the pieces were tender and delicious. Other pieces were a bit gristly. Since the flavor was great, when we return I will likely order this dish with chicken. Mark ordered Chicken Tikka Masala (spice-marinated diced boneless white meat chicken cooked to perfection in tandoor | simmered in rich creamy tomato sauce). He raved about it! When he was finished it looked as if he has licked his bowl. In fact, he used some naan (we ordered Garlic Naan) to get every last drop of the sauce out of the bowl. The Garlic Naan was good, but I must have been full. I didn't finish one piece. There were four in a serving. I had to take a picture of the silver and gold wear. So very fancy, but a bit over the top. The plates were beautiful and were warm when they were brought to the table. We had a delightful meal. Oh... don't know if it is always like this, but we were there well over an hour. There was no rush whatsoever. Next time we are in town staying at City Suites, we will definitely return to Cumin!
