Modern Indian restaurant · Highland Park

"The North Shore is the backdrop for this Indian restaurant that takes a different spin on South Asian cuisine. There is wagyu beef, smoked brisket — even the lentils are smoked at Indus. But this isn’t barbecue, it’s clever cooking that isn’t regional. The pork belly vindaloo isn’t the sultry takeout dish you may expect. This is a hulking, tender slab of meat beautifully flavored. The lamb shank curry is also of note. Indus gives Highland Park flavors they’ve never experienced with ideas chefs in Chicago and Devon haven’t put together. This is from the owners of Bhoomi, a stall inside Washington Hall." - Ashok Selvam
