“Butter chicken masala fries absolutely the best, very friendly and hospitable staff. Most definitely will come back here again”
“Stopped in before a concert and had a great meal! Everything came out fresh, hot and so nicely seasoned. Staff was friendly and attentive- chatting up guests or cleaning. The dining room is also really nice! Would make a trip just to come here again.”
“🙌🏾This is hands down one of my favorite spots — and this was not my first visit. 👀I’ve been here at least five times, and they’ve been consistent every single time. My go-to order is the butter chicken, garlic naan, and basmati rice, and it never misses. The butter chicken is rich, flavorful, and cooked exactly how it should be. I’ve tried it mild, hot, and extra hot, and all three were done right. One thing I really appreciate is that they give you a comment section to customize your food in general. It’s helpful if you need to make small adjustments or request something specific with your order. I’ve also tried the lassi (both mango and strawberry), which is always refreshing, and their potato bread, which is lovely. It comes with a dipping sauce and is definitely worth trying if you want something different from naan. I usually spend around $30–$35 when I’m eating by myself, and it’s always worth it. If I’m keeping it simple, the least I’ve spent is around $25, but the portions and quality justify the price every time. I drive 20–30 minutes to come here even though there are other Indian restaurants closer to me. I’ve tried a lot of butter chicken in the area, and none of them compare. Samosa King set the standard for me. The ambiance is great, both inside and outside, and the overall experience is always solid. Great food, great vibes, and consistent quality. Highly recommend. I’ll definitely keep coming back.”
“I have loved Samosa King on Oak Park Ave ( now Kathi King) since they started here. I was not surprised to find out this newer location on 183rd is just as good. The curries are savory and rich. I love the chicken tikka masala, butter chicken, pav bhaji ( ultimate favorite), and the garlic naan. The chicken 65 is great too and I'm sure everything else is as well. I'm really lucky I do not live far from here !I am grateful I get to indulge in such amazing food so close to home. The service is friendly too. 💕”
“Went here with my dad. Had a great experience. Great service !!! Food was amazing. Had the Paneer and butter chicken (both were delish!!!)”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I tried this newly opened Indian restaurant and WOW, every single dish was fresh, flavorful, and made to order. You can tell care and pride go into the food. 👉🏽 Must-order items: • Butter chicken (rich, perfectly spiced, and comforting) • Kadhai chicken (bold, savory, and packed with flavor) • Butter chicken fries (dangerously good 😮💨) • Garlic naan (warm, soft, and addictive) • Mango lassi (creamy, refreshing, and the perfect balance) • And DO NOT skip dessert 🍮 Everything was well-seasoned, hot, and absolutely delicious. The ordering process is simple: order and pay at the counter, grab a seat, and your food is brought out to you. The owner is incredibly passionate and patient, which made the experience even better. You can truly feel the love behind this place! I’ll definitely be back and will be recommending this restaurant to everyone!! Wishing this business nothing but success b/c they deserve it! 🙌🏽✨”
“Guy was friendly and informative. It was my first time having Indian food, and he was pretty patient. I had Chicken Curry, and Chicken Samosa, and tried my friend's Lamb Vindaloo. Good food, I had medium spice, and that was all under my tolerance level (I'm a hot sauce on everything guy). Plenty of food, probably the most I have eaten at one time in a while. Would go back for sure!”
“Absolutely the best butter chicken!! Try this place and you’ll be hooked!”
“The butter chicken is hit or miss. But when it hits, it hits. The employees are so nice!”
“Nice mixes of spices and flavors. We really like the environmentally, friendly tableware and packaging. Nice atmosphere on the inside from the old Thai restaurant that was once here. It feels more modern than many Indian restaurants. If you order spicy, expected it to be on the hot side!”
