" ROOP Chicago has nailed the upscale Indian dining experience! From the moment we stepped in, the decor and lighting set a perfect mood for our dinner. We indulged in various dishes, and they were all well-presented. The lamb shank was divine, succulent and packed with flavor. The only downside was that the dessert didn't quite match up. A bit pricy, but if you're looking for a chic night out, this is the place to be! " (*Curated Review*)

" I absolutely loved my dining experience at ROOP! The ambiance is enchanting, with stunning decor and soft lighting that creates a cozy atmosphere. The dishes are unique; I was blown away by the presentation and flavor of the jackfruit cutlet. For mains, I tried the garlic naan alongside butter chicken, which was delicious, although the sauce could have been spiced up a bit. Overall, I'd return for the creativity and experience rather than traditional flavors. " (*Curated Review*)

" ROOP is definitely a treat for those hoping to enjoy modern Indian cuisine, but authenticity is somewhat debatable. While the ambiance is upscale and inviting, the dishes can sometimes feel less Indian and more fusion-inspired. I particularly loved the dessert selection, with the saffron cheesecake being my absolute favorite! Not sure if I'd choose this place for a casual meal, but for special occasions, it could be perfect. " (*Curated Review*)

" ROOP Chicago exceeded my expectations with their innovative approach to Indian food. Each plate tells a story, with beautiful presentation and divine flavors that linger long after a meal. The lamb dish was exquisite, paired beautifully with saffron rice. Though portions are not the largest, they are enough to celebrate the richness of each dish. A great place for food lovers on special occasions! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had been looking forward to ROOP for a while and was thrilled to finally visit. The atmosphere is lovely! Our server was engaging and helped make our selections. The food was all visually stunning, but I desire more depth in the flavors. The butter chicken was nice enough, yet lacked the robust flavor profile I yearned for. It’s a nice place overall, and I’d love to see more exciting flavors from the kitchen! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a mixed experience at ROOP. The staff were friendly and attentive, which was a highlight. However, when it came to the food, I was hoping for more spice and authenticity. The butter chicken was good but didn't have that rich, spiced base I crave. The portions were small for the price, so I left a little hungry. I might return, but I'll pick my dishes more carefully next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful experience! The restaurant's setting is gorgeous and the staff is very hospitable. Their cocktails were very well crafted, my favorite being the Pistachio Paradise! The dishes were beautiful and thoughtfully made, especially the dahi ke kebab. While I felt some flavors were toned down, everything was balanced well. Overall, I would recommend this place to others! " (*Curated Review*)
