Kama symbolizes aesthetic pleasure of the senses – touch, smell, flavor, vision and sound. Food is our most intimate connection to nature and a source of everlasting memories.
We bring the fresh, bold and authentic flavors of Indian cuisine made from scratch to La Grange and surrounding suburbs. Our menu highlights cuisine from various regions of India and its fusion with American favorites. We offer over 10 distinct sauces and chutneys made with our proprietary fresh ground spice blends and fresh ingredients all made from scratch. We use a charcoal Tandoori grill to cook all meats and bake fresh bread to order. Modern, vibrant, contemporary and chic are the words used to describe Kama’s dining room. A perfect place to bring friends and family, impress a date and out of town guest.

We have been regulars at Kama Bistro for many years and have always had a consistently great experience. Of all the Indian restaurants in Chicago, Kama goes above in beyond in serving the freshest and most delicious food. The desserts and chai are amazing. I would recommend Kama to anyone who is looking for a hidden gem of ethnic cuisine in the Western suburbs!

Celebrated a birthday there. Not everyone in our party were fond of Indian cuisine (from past experience at other restaurants) but it was the Birthday girls choice. We were surprised to find the menu items extremely delicious by all the diners at our table. The portions were large, two people could share one entree. Our server was, and other personnel, very helpful, courteous and attentive.

Husband and I went for a early dinner. Had received a coupon for a free Tikka Masala which we both love. Our server Malak explained options. Was very informative and pleasant. Started with a cocktail and Papadam with chutney appetizer. Fresh and tasty. We upgraded to Lamb Tikka Masala with Naan. Spiciness options are great. We had mild to medium. Totally delicious. No room for dessert this time. Happy to see how busy Kama was on a Friday. Great restaurant in LaGrange.

Ghee Roasted Cauliflowers were cold. Paneer Molly Sauce curry was dry because very little gravy. Dal Makhni did not taste fresh. Probably store bought dal makhni. Spice levels are not as what they say. We ordered medium, but everything was mild. Our water glasses were dirty. We had to ask for new glasses.

We enjoyed our food and the ambiance at Kama! Kama- please tilt the food warming light at the hostess stand so that it does not absolutely blind everyone walking in the door or standing in the vicinity. Also, our waitress was great, but another waiter kept stopping by our table to recommend items, ask about our food, etc. He stopped by 3 or 4 times without purpose and it was really disruptive to our conversation. We did not need an additional server as our waitress did a great job.

Did not get waited on for over 15 minutes from the time we were seated. Four of us in the party and only given three menus. Had to get up and go speak to Manager who walked away as I stood next to her to ask about getting some service. Then walked over to speak to hostess who avoided eye contact until I literally stood in front of her. She asked if she could help and I informed her of 15+ minute wait. She said she would send someone over to take our order. The other hostess then came to our table and asked what the issue was??? I explained that we had been seated over 15 minutes ago and had not had anyone wait on our table. I noted that the table next to use was seated after us, waited on, and was already eating an appetizer. She said that some personnel were arriving late to work and she would send someone over. Food arrived to table and halibut curry was extra salty and other entree was cold and tasteless. Shame as we bragged about how good the food was to our guests from out of town. Very big disappointment.

We took my parents for their 57th anniversary. They live out of state & always request to eat here when they visit. Kama never disappoints. Their food and drinks are top notch. And they seem to be running even better than ever—lots of new wait staff made things run noticeably smoothly and efficiently. Most importantly the food is fresh and delicious—it’s always hard to decide what to order bc we want everything! They brought a complimentary anniversary dessert for my parents which they thoroughly enjoyed. Overall a lovely experience and the best Indian food in the Chicago area.

Food as always was great. Vegetables were fresh but I don't prefer big pieces of them in a curry because it does not mingle well with spices and curries. While the server was trying to keep up with everything she had, it certainly affected lever of service was provided to us. Missed opportunity for restaurant - My drink was not replaced even though I was interested in getting another. Naan was out before the main course was out. I asked her to take the naan back and bring fresh one when the main course comes in. She brought in same naan back and it was cold. I will be back again at some point but I hope you guys can improve on these things.

It was chaotic when we arrived. The staff didn’t seem very organized. Even though we had a reservation, we were sat in the smallest corner by the kitchen. The tables were so close, that I was hit in the head by a serving tray and then by a guest. My purse was knocked off my chair 3 times and the service was spotty. We waited 30+ min for water. Disappointing. But the food itself was good. Our waitress was friendly but overwhelmed. Felt sorry for her.

Arriving at 5pm on a Sunday before the dinner rush I would have expected faster service. It took forever just to get our drinks delivered. Appetizers took forever as well. It seems like not enough wait staff to cover all the tables. My sea bass was smothered in an oil and way too much pepper. When the waitress asked how everything was, I told her about the sea bass and she was adamant that it was not in an oil, but later said it might have been an olive oil. Anyways, don't ask me if you don't want to know. I'm not looking for a free entree, but was disappointed because I paid $46 and had to stop eating it because my stomach was getting upset. Expensive, not the most attentive service because waitress stretched too thin and no free refills on soda. Noisy and vents blow too much cold air. I won't be back anytime soon.
