Good food experience. A must try
Service was nice Food was surprising for the most part , with the possibility to achieve a smooth balance with spices I was not fond of the desert which was not up to my taste The music was very loud. It was the aspect that downgraded my experience overall. Hard to hear the service explanations for food and to understand it as a consequence. Moreover musique did not serve the overall ambiance of the restaurant (Hispanic music for indienne is out of touch in my opinion) Thank you for the amazing experience !
Be the first to ReplyAn Upscale Indian Restaurant.
Indienne is housed in a 19th century printing warehouse in a converted timber-loft. The design of the restaurant embraces smooth warehouse floors, exposed ceilings, thick wooden beams, rose colored booths, a dramatic bar and a sign of fine dining.....tablecloths. This is a handsome facility. The Indienne serves up tasting menus for veggies, non-veggies, vegans as well as a la carte dining (all in a melange of French & Indian fare), a worldly wine inventory and an impressive cocktail program.......and the proud owner of a Michelin star. As a 1st timer to Indian food I selected a tasting menu which featured creative dishes such as Egg (Curry), Yogurt (Chat), Lamb (Burrah) and more. The food was exceptional, and so involving...and so artistically presented that I didn't know whether to just stare at it or eat it.......I ate it. This is an upscale Indian restaurant.

We enjoyed the most exquisite meal at Indienne. Every item presented to us was luscious. Service was impeccable from start to finish. The presentation of each item was so beautiful they were like works of art. We ordered the non-vegetarian tasting menu. The price was reasonable considering how much this included - six courses on top of which we added a special bread and the additional scallop course. The spicing was so tasty. We cook Indian food ourselves. This was non traditional and truly creative.

Extraordinary food and dining experience. Best Indian meal I have ever had . . . completely different than the typical curry or Indian place. This is fine dining at its best. Two tasting menus (one vegetarian and the other with meat / seafood). Service was graceful and impeccable. Presentation of each course was a work of art, but more importantly it tasted great. Be aware of the surcharges that will be added to your bill though. A number of extra fees and percentages are part of the total, so what was $240 for the two tasting menus turned into over $400 with tips and extras.
Be the first to ReplyMassive disappointment
I cannot tell you how disappointed I am still the day after we ate here for dinner. For three people ordering the vegetarian tasting menu and one alcoholic drink, the bill was over $500. I was expecting perfection for a restaurant of this caliber but I was angry from the moment we walked in. The hostess wouldn't seat us at our empty table until our friend arrived (he was 10 minutes late because of a work call). She told us to wait at the bar. We tried to order a Diet Coke but the bartender rudely told us that he had 14 drinks ahead of ours. Apparently it would have been time consuming for him to put soda in a glass. After we were seated we noticed something sticky on the tablecloth. The waiter said that they have been having issues with the linen service. After my husband insisted that we wanted a clean tablecloth, the waiter proclaimed that it would have to be ironed at the table. This was weird. He literally ironed on the table. I ordered a non-alcoholic drink and it was mostly ice with very little juice. We couldn't hear the explanation of each course. Though the dishes were visually pleasing, the flavors of each dish tasted like the one before. There was very little variation between courses. Since this is an Indian restaurant and we eat Indian food very often, we expected different spices, textures, etc. We were sorely disappointed. The portions were tiny and I went home hungry. After we paid our check we realized they never asked if we wanted coffee or tea. We ordered one tea which the manager gave us free. I was really looking forward to this dinner because we were entertaining a guest from out of town and we love Indian food. I would never recommend this place.
Be the first to ReplyGreat fine Indian dining. Bread/naan are awesome
Finally we have a decent Indian fine dining in town!! We all had 5-course meat tasting menu. Every dish was well presented and most of them tasted good. The butter chicken sauce was salty for all of us. The naan and bread were the highlight. We enjoyed the fresh bake and felt like we could find any better starch than theirs in town . The coconut dessert ๐จ was to die for.. The reason I didnโt give a full score because of the service and cocktails. Our waitress was very friendly but not everybody else. Most of them looked very serious without smiles. As for cocktail, I had Mumbai which tasted so light that I thought it was a virgin version. I donโt drink much and usually a half glass could get me dizzy already so if I feel the drink is light, it would be much lighter for most people. They allowed me to swap the drink and I got Delhi. Not sure if itโs because of my comment earlier or itโs their original recipe, this drink this time was extremely strong that I waited long time for the ice to melt and only could take a few sips at the end. If the drinks were more balanced, it would totally boost the dining experience.
Be the first to ReplySilly and Pretentious: The Food doesn't shine.
Everyone was raving about Indienne so my husband and I booked a reservation on our recent trip to Chicago. The hostess greeted us warmly. The space is cool and industrial the crowd was very attractive and initially it appeared to be a fun spot. The warmth ended here: We ordered the vegetarian tasting menu with the wine pairing. The staff is stiff and affected so formally trained that they present as low-talking, robotic-Stepford-Wife like. The have stiff smiles, and have memorized an extensive, detailed description of the beautiful artistically presented courses. If you interrupt or ask any questions including "could you please speak up a bit: I can't hear you" it derails their monologue. Ok: the most important aspect: the food. It was beautiful, picture perfect, works of art. Small bites delivered so quickly and efficiently with the long introduction that its military -like and overwhelming., Not gracious nor inviting. Every dish, except the soup, tasted the same. The bites were small, the bill wasn't. We were embarrassed to have spent so much on dinner. Thats not how you want to feel- it doesn't make you cool or in-the-know.. it makes you a sucker. Advice: Give Indienne a try as it's hot now. If you order wine pairing: split it . Its a lot, of wine and money. It's served very quick, assembly like, with long pretentious intro to each Again don't ask any interesting questions or ask for any repetition as the staff does not deviate from script. Also, you do not want to order 2 tasting menus. Order off the menu. The tastings were all too similar, more suited for photographing than eating. Maybe sit at the bar and have a drink and some sides. Once they train or have better-trained confident staff it might help create a more enjoyable dining experience.
Be the first to ReplyLovely, well executed avant-garde Indian food
Spectacular. We got the set menu and wine pairing. Everything was well plated, explained, timed - and they accommodate all kinds of diets. Would definitely go again for a fancy special occasion meal.
Be the first to ReplyExquisite Indian tasting menu in a relaxed setting
We love Indian food but had never had a tasting menu, so this place intrigued us. It did not disappoint. The atmosphere was quiet and relaxed. We were offered the Kulcha (bread) supplement and the Prawn supplement - we took both, but the Prawn supplement was the least interesting dish of the menu and we would skip next time. Every other item on the tasting menu was a revelation. I did not try the wine pairings, but they had a nice sparkling wine that I enjoyed. We did not try their gin cart, although the gins and mixers looked interesting. A highlight of the night was our waiter, who had traveled around India and provided context to the different dishes and their regional origins.

When you make a reservation, you have to choose between the vegetarian ($95) and non-vegetarian ($105) 7-course tasting meals. We chose the one with meat, having seen photos of their lamb chop. Youโre also asked to decide whether to have the wine pairing. We chose not to. On arrival at 6:30 pm on a weekday, we found a big room with tables widely spaced apart, a couple alcoves in back for private parties, perhaps, and a long bar along the east wall. The restaurant was about ยฝ full and there was only one patron at the bar. The tables filled up as the evening progressed, the bar didnโt. The noise level, consequently, was a low hum so it was easy to converse. We were greeted cordially and seated. We got paper menus so weโd know what we were eating. We were asked if we wanted a supplemental lobster course ($28) and/or a chili-cheese kulcha ($8) with our chicken tikka. We said yes to both. We ordered drinks. Then we sat back and relaxed. The cocktail, a delicious take on a Negroni, soon came, followed in due course by a parade of dishes, cunningly plated, bursting with flavors and artfully spiced: Indian ingredients married to French techniques. The marriage was extremely successful. Out of 8 dishes, the only one that did not wow us was the chicken terrine topped with spring truffle slices with amul cheese sauce poured around it. It was a bit dry. Everything else we ate was outstandingly good. The Black Dairy Dal that accompanied the lamb chop was a revelation: smoky and almost a sauce. Itโs easy to get a bit jaded with so many fancy multi-course tasting dinners out there. But this one was exceptional and worth every penny. The chef is working on a new one debuting in the next week or so, they told us. We will look forward to trying it. Service was impeccable. The meal was well-paced, lasting about 2 hours. Indienne was recently added to the Chicago Michelin Guide; I predict it will soon have a Michelin star. One caveat: thereโs a half-flight of stairs to the door. We did not spot a handicapped-accessible entrance. If itโs needed, call to find out first.
