Indian Cuisine - Portage

Hello readers. As Indian I always search for Indian cuisine where I go and recently I moved to Kalamazoo and found this restaurant. If you're looking for Halal Chicken, that's the right place. Let's go to our dishes, believe me, I have tried and half the dishes made available/included in their menu, but have no pictures of all. The rate per court after my visits. P.s they ask for ur spice level so my is also medium spice level or if rate of 10 that it 8 1) veg samosa (3.5/5) it is good and okish if you have a samosa fan 2) Veg hakka noodles (3.8/5) It's one of those dishes I like from here. U will get the feeling of eating the same as when you eat in India. 3) Bombay Chicken biryani (4.2/5) Sharkling from Mumbai I loved this because it is exactly the same thing I have in my hometown except to put the egg. It is delicious and the chicken pieces are also fresh and delicate, they have added large masalas for this special dish. 4) Fire masala dosa (4.5/5) If you love too much spicy, this is suitable for you. Very sharp and brilliant. This dish is only for spicy food lovers. 5) Chole bhature (5/5) (highly recommended) if you love this dish, it is the best here. Not an **** feature fan, but it feels like you're eating in old Gully from Chandni-Chowk from delhi 6) Dal makhani (3.5/5) Again one of the best dishes from the main course for which you can choose. It is really delicious and with garlic naan it is simply scrumbling. 7) Hariyali Chicken (4/5) if you have a white meat chicken person, that is then best. One of the most important courses I would recommend to others. 8) Chicken chettinadu (5/5) before I came here, I had not tasted this dish and a very recommended one from my side. Simply brilliant and delicious in taste. One day I also came to the buffet and all the items were tasteful and buffet is available only on weekends The service was fast and the staff is friendly. Overall, it is good and has to visit here. Bones

I tried Hillside Indian Cuisine for the first time tonight and I have to say it was absolutely DELICIOUS. I’ve lived in NYC the past 10 years so as you can imagine I have my favorite places there and let me tell you, this restaurant is right on par with them! So glad my friends who own Retroflection Vintage Shop a few doors down recommend it. So GOOD! I had the chicken curry, vegetable samosas, and garlic naan. If you’re looking for amazing Indian food, this is the spot!

The Boneless Chicken Biryani was perfectly cooked using traditional slow steaming methods, and the Goat Biryani, my favorite, was also done to perfection. The quality of the goat meat was exceptionally delicious. The Mixed Kebabs Grill was superb, and the portion sizes were generous. The Malabar Paratha paired wonderfully with the Goat Sukka, which is another favorite of mine. They even offered us Gulab Jamun as a complimentary dessert. The Seekh Lamb Kabob was very flavorful, and the Chicken Pepper Fry was fantastic. You must try the goat dishes; they use top-quality goat meat, and their marination technique keeps the meat moist and tender. They prepare Biryani using traditional slow cooking methods, unlike other restaurants that simply serve fried rice as Biryani. If I ever have the chance, I would love to come back for dinner again.

I order from here a few times each month. The Mango Lassi is absolutely delicious! I usually go for the Chicken Korma, Butter Chicken, and Lamb Saag. My husband and mother also love the food here, and I’ve had some of my coworkers try it as well. So far, everyone has enjoyed their meals. I highly recommend dining at Hillside, even if you're not familiar with Indian cuisine. If you're uncertain about the spices, the dishes I've mentioned are mild and very flavorful.

This review is a bit difficult to write because the food was truly excellent, likely some of the best Indian cuisine I've ever had. However, the waiting time was excessive. I understand the restaurant had just opened for dinner and was handling many online orders, but it took nearly an hour, if not longer, for us to receive our meals. Several other customers left due to the long wait. I arrived quite hungry, which didn’t help the situation. I live in G/R, so I’m not sure when I’ll return, but if I'm in the area, I will definitely give it another try and update my review afterward. Again, the food was delicious, so I’m giving the food a solid 5 stars.
