   Indus Progressive Indian is a fantastic lunch spot on a chilly Chicago afternoon or any time of the day. The Chetinaad Chicken Dosa was crisp and flavorful, the India-style Fried Chicken perfectly spiced, and the Delhi-style Coffee Shake and Masala Tea warm and indulgent. Service was attentive, the ambience modern yet cozy, and everything spotless. The heavy red curtain at the entrance feels unwelcoming—replacing it would improve the first impression. Otherwise, an excellent experience worth revisiting!

   We had a fantastic Valentine’s Day dinner! We didn’t realize it was a set Valentine’s Day menu, but we loved trying all the various courses. The Gobi Mussallam and crème brûlée were outstanding and we loved the Daal Indus and Palak Panner. Our server Mary was delightful and knowledgable about the menu. The restaurant is so pretty and we had a great time! The owners are extremely warm and welcoming.

   We tried Indus's innovative yet authentic Indian brunch options, and everything we tried was fresh and delectable. It is a lovely way to spend a cold Sunday morning, enjoying the warmth of a flavorful meal.

   The menu offered an exploration into Indian brunch and flavors along with a couple more American options with a touch of India. The owners were both present and an absolute delight as they welcomed guests with open arms and explanations when inquires came in... Our server was darling, yet, needed a bit more training to be able to provide answers to questions and some follow through on requests That being said, he could not have been more kind and was working hard We look forward to coming back very soon

   Great food. We went to brunch. We tried the masala dosa, biryani, uttapam, and shashuka. All delicious! The owners were friendly and came by every table. They were gracious and engaging in sharing the story of the restaurant and menu. Their love of the Highland Park community was evident. Great place- we will be back.
