The food was delicious and so different - not the same old you taste everywhere Indian. Our server was so knowledgeable and her recommendations were right on spot. If you want to taste Indian food again for it's flavor, freshness and love then come here!!

We were searching for an Indian fusion restaurant in Chicago and this place showed up 🔝 on top of the list. After dining here I realized why this place is rated so high. Dhanteraz Indian Fusion location is right in the residential neighborhood where there are several boutique businesses. Street parking might be difficult to find on a busy day. Restaurant ambience is trendy and gives us the vibe of cozy hangout place for nearby residents. The service was top notch and the waitress gave us suggestions about menu choices and prepared us well about the spice level. My favorite dishes are the Chili 🌶️ Paneer, Chili 🌶️ Gobi, Lamb 🐑 Rogan Ghosh, Pakoda. I felt the Chef 🧑‍🍳 has mastered these dish’s recipes and gave his signature touch. We also tried Chicken Tikka Masala Pasta 🍝, Chicken Chettinad, Veg Biryani, Malai Kofta, Garlic Naan, jackfruit ice cream 🍨, cake which were ok. Entrees portions are a little smaller when compared to other restaurants. I wish there were more fusion menu options and/or authentic Indian regional cuisine menu options. Chef 🧑‍🍳 Abu took time to check on us and inquired about the food taste and service. I would recommend this place to anyone who would like to try Indian food.

We found Dhanteraz very last minute and wow, what a find! Great combination of delicious food, cute ambiance, and friendly service. First time trying Chicken Korma and it did not disappoint. Tikka Masala was also excellent. The naan was piping hot and wonderfully flaky. Roscoe Village is lucky to have this place!

Excellent service. All the workers were nice and attentive. The food was very flavorful, and the spice levels we ordered were accurate with every dish. The lamb bhiryani was the star, very well seasoned. Would easily come back to try more!

Amazing food and service! Our server was the sweetest and gave us great recommendations. Chef came out to greet us as well and told us about upcoming specials. Dhanteraz biryani is awesome, some of the best we have had. Overall a great experience. We will be back.

Fantastic night out, with incredible food and lovely staff. We tried the Gobi Manchurian, Lamb Biryani, Butter Chicken, and Garlic Naan and loved it all. We chose mild spice for all and still thought it was flavorful. We’ll definitely be back :)

This new hidden gem in Roscoe Village is a must!! We drove down from the suburbs on a recommendation, and we were not disappointed!! We tried the Onion Pakoras, Chicken Tikka Masala and Aloo Gobi. It came with A big bowl of Rice.
