“I was always a big fan of siri since it's near and I get to eat south Indian food, but when I ordered yesterday 1. I asked for extra chatni and they gave me very little 2. Very disappointed the idli was not cooked properly. Upon addressing that they did make me a new batch which turned out undercooked too. When I addressed that again the lady who served us didn't apologize or didn't give any solution she was like, "may be it's too hot that's the reason it's crumbling" . I'm sorry!!! I am a South Indian who has love for idli and she saying that is not acceptable at all. When i said i know how idli tastes like, she just walked away to the kitchen without saying anything. She came back and said nothing, took my plate and got a third set which i have photographed. Surprise surprise undercooked again . I used to love going to this restaurant, but today they lost a very loyal customer. Not happy.”
“Really good food. Staff was really kind. i would recommend.”
“I have loved dining at Siri for quite some time, but I recently hired them for live catering for my event, and they completely blew me away! We had a live dosa center and a live chaat center, and their team did a truly fantastic job. I also have to give a special shoutout to the owner for saving the day. Just two days before the event, we hit a major hiccup when our venue informed us that vendors couldn't bring their own propane gas for liability reasons. I panicked, but when I called the restaurant, the owner was incredibly accommodating. He went completely out of his way to figure out how to make it work using the venue's existing gas range. Even though it wasn't his usual or ideal setup, he just made it happen flawlessly and without any complaints. I am so grateful for his flexibility and dedication! Despite that last-minute hurdle, the execution was perfect. The quality of the dosas was absolutely amazing, and the chaat was just as great. What really stood out to me was their service. The way the food was served was perfect, and they genuinely took wonderful care of all our guests. Even with a hungry crowd, their speed and efficiency were top-notch, ensuring no one was left waiting long. To top it all off, they are extremely reasonably priced for the incredible quality and service they provide. I can't say enough good things about this place. I would highly recommend Siri's catering to anyone—friends, family, or anyone looking to elevate their event. Thank you, Siri, for making our gathering so special!”
“The food was good, and especially Vijayawada was really good and also hyd chicken 65 is also really good , main thing I loved here is Apollo fish”
“Decent food which is tasty. Must try the vijayawada chicken. It has good customer service.”
“We've been to a few Indian restaurants during our Chicago trip but we keep coming back here for more. The most authentic, hygienic and amazing South Indian food in Chicago... easily...”
“It’s a neighbourhood Indian restaurant. Good taste you should try the dosa and Biriyani that is the best here.”
“Siri Indian Restaurant is an absolute must-visit for authentic South Indian and Andhra flavors! The Mysore Bonda was perfectly crispy and spiced, while the Vijayawada Chicken Biryani was rich, aromatic, and the real deal. The dosas stole the show — the Buttermilk Dosa was refreshingly tangy and the Benne Dosa was buttery, crispy perfection. The dine-in experience was warm, welcoming, and full of homestyle authenticity in every bite. Highly recommend — we are already planning our next visit! 🙌🍛”
