About this spot
Alexander's on Devon Avenue delivers the authentic, spice-forward flavors of Little India without the tourist traps found elsewhere in Chicago. Expect a bustling atmosphere where you can order classic dishes like butter chicken or tandoori chicken directly from the kitchen counter. The menu changes frequently based on what local suppliers bring in, so don't be surprised if your favorite dish is sold out by dinner rush.
π‘ Tips before you go
- Ask for extra naan bread immediately to soak up rich curries and balance spicy heat.
- Order off the specials board to try regional dishes that aren't listed on the standard menu.
- Bring cash as some street-side vendors in the neighborhood may not accept cards.
