A Michelin starred Indian restaurant in Chicago is drawing attention after a review of the restaurant was posted by content creator Anushk Sharma on Instagram.

Sharma went to 'Indienne' in Chicago for his birthday and left raving reviews for the place. Indienne reimagines traditional Indian flavors with a contemporary approach, and elevates classic dishes into a sophisticated high-end tasting menu.

Sharma reviewed the vegetarian tasting menu that showcased seasonal ingredients and contemporary techniques. He was served numerous dishes including paneer kofta, dhokla, medu vada, yogurt chaat, pani puri, morel manti, mushroom galouti, assorted vegetarian kebabs, and multiple dessert courses.

Sharma was also taken aback by the hospitality he received, from freshly ironed table-clothes to a server folding hand-towels in the washroom.

The restaurant kicked things off with Dhokla with a twist. He remarked that the Dhokla had a consistency that was similar to Ghevar and it was paired with a chutney, something that shocked Sharma.

He paid high praise for numerous dishes including Mushroom Galouti kebab, Yogurt Chaat with strawberries and Medu Vada. He, however, was not a big fan of the Gol Gappa with jelly-like filling and the restaurant's "mediocre" Dal Makhani.

The $450 meal was "totally worth" the money, according to Sharma. Despite having mixed feelings about some of the experiments done by the restaurant, Sharma ranks the place as a must visit.
