Thumka Indian Grill - Hoffman Estates

The owners were great and the food was authentic and even better. I felt like I knew the guys just meeting them once. Managers and owners that take a liking to speak to their customers are passionate about what they are doing. Drove out from Woodstock for the meal and wasn't dissapointed. I see some complaining about ambience and pricing. Don't get that...prices were around 10 dollars a meal. When did that get pricy for people in Algonquin for home cooked food? Don't think they are interior designers either. Good food for sure.

Amazing food and service. One of the best indian restaurants I have been to in US. Very good chicken tikka masala.The staff is friendly and quality of food is great since the first day.

We visited for the first time and enjoyed the lunch buffet, which was fantastic—everything was fresh and delicious! The restaurant has a charming atmosphere, making it warm and inviting. The staff was friendly and attentive. It can be a bit tricky to locate since it's tucked away in a shopping center and isn't visible from the parking lot, but once you go inside, you'll find it easily. It's a hidden gem that's definitely worth seeking out. We might have discovered our new favorite place for Indian cuisine! We can't wait to come back for dinner!

I’m not sure why this place isn't more popular, as it truly offers an authentic taste of India that can satisfy your cravings without needing to return to your hometown. The chef has a remarkable talent for capturing intense aromas, and the scent of the food is simply captivating. While many other restaurants tend to have similar menus, this one stands out as truly unique. By the way, I absolutely love the Kathiawadi thali here!

You can't go wrong with the lunch buffet—it's fantastic! On Wednesday nights, you can enjoy an all-you-can-eat experience. The ambiance is lovely, and the location is great too.
