Although the Tandoor Hut is located inside the strip mall that time forgot, it's pretty awesome. Just be prepared:
- It's kind of crusty on the inside, and it's cafeteria-style, sneeze guards and all
- If you're an Indian food novice, it's a little intimidating
But it's so good. The staff was really helpful when we were trying to decide on what to order. You can get free samples to taste stuff! And the best part is, they totally trusted us enough to pay for dinner after we ate. It gave me warm fuzzies.
The highlights of the meal for me were the naan and the chili chicken. The naan came on a huge plate all warm, buttery, and awesome. The chili chicken was chunks of chicken fried with some peppers and then totally covered in red pepper flakes. So hot, so good, but not for the faint of stomach.
This b has an iron stomach, so I am in love.
For quite some time I have been looking for a place that serves some authentic indian food in the west suburbs, and came across this place. So far this is my favorite place for authentic south Indian food. They serve both north and south indian cuisines but most of it is south Indian which is fantastic, because I feel most of the restaurants in the USA serve only north indian cuisine with the same old Tikka masala or butter chicken. It's a cafeteria style restaurant and not regular buffet style restaurant. I like this concept because it makes me not overwhelmed looking at the options and I also feel it gives the chance for the restaurant to prepare fresh food as needed. I have been here couple of times now mostly for takeout and I would definitely go again. Although I like most of their non-vegeterian dishes, I would highly recommend Chicken Biryani, Chicken 65, chapati and Madras chicken curry and few other chicken curries as well.
