Mantra by Indian Garden

“This place hits 10/10 every time.”

This place hits 10/10 every time! Started with a jalapeño margarita then got the butter chicken and tikka masala, garlic naan, biryani, samosas, iced mango and chocolate desert amongst family and all were fantastic. The star of the show however, is the Adraki Chaamp grilled lamb chops 🔥 my absolute favorite and I’m very selective with lamb cuz it usually tastes gamey. The staff is superb and ambience is especially great if you sit in the back but anywhere is fine. Desert pictured was a new item and not sure of the name but a must try.

“Our first time at Mantra and very close to O’Hare.”

Our first time at Mantra and very close to O’Hare. Excellent service and the servers are very accommodating. Everything is freshly cooked. The ambiance is very relaxing and well maintained and their display of arts. The food was amazing too and delicious. It was just us two and the quantity of food is plenty. Highly recommend to try if you are in the area. Was a busy night and we got seated but would advise making reservations!

Great ambience. Very decent food. We ordered Keravali Prawns, chicken 65, tandoori platter, Kadai chicken and garlic naan. Food was pretty tasty. Only thing the wine was hot 😉. Ambience was really good and creates a nice feeling

“Excellent food, atmosphere and service.”

Excellent food, atmosphere and service. Manas was our server. Very attentive!!!! Chef came around and made sure our food was made to our liking. Even the Restaurant manager made rounds to ensure everyone was happy. We love this place and will come back. Mocktails were great, mango lassi, pakora, curries, fried bhindi/okra, daal, rice, naan and falooda.

Mantra by Indian Garden in Chicago is a vibrant spot that beautifully blends modern style with authentic Indian flavors. The food is outstanding- rich, aromatic, and perfectly spiced. They offer both à la carte and buffet options, ideal for any appetite. The ambience is elegant yet cozy, making it perfect for family dinners, date nights, or group celebrations. They also have Tesla chargers.

“From the minute you walk into the door you are transported into another place.”

From the minute you walk into the door you are transported into another place. Not In Schiller Park, IL. The food is amazing, wait staff kind and helpful since it was our first time there we had some questions. I got the buttered chicken, that is my Indian go to food. Omg the garlic naan is some of the best that I have ever had. I got the lemonade with I believe lavender, that was very tasty too. We definitely will be back!

“Had a late lunch here while on a business trip.”

Had a late lunch here while on a business trip. I tried the saag paneer and garlic naan—the food was of great quality. The highlight of the restaurant, though, was the interior décor. It’s beautifully Indian-themed, especially the lush green space they’ve created inside.
