Known in the Chicago area as the some of the best Indian cuisine in town, Kritunga was started by a group of four in 2022 with a vision to bring the taste of authentic flavors from India to the region. Named from a shortened form for Krishna and Thungabhadra, there is a restaurant in Hyderabad with the same name, and there they serve dishes which are famous in the region between Krishna and Thungabhadra rivers.
“Amazing food. Seems like all the spices and flavors are made fresh in-house and all the food is unlike any Indian restaurant I've ever been to,” a yelp reviewer noted. With handpicked spices, farm-fresh ingredients sourced from local farmers markets, and a chef with over 20 years’ experience in the finest Indian restaurants, patrons can be sure they are getting only the freshest and highest-quality ingredients, no matter the time of year.
Menu & Design
Offering a variety of traditional Indian cuisine, Kritunga provides a meat and vegetarian menu, catering to the diverse preferences of its clientele. The meat dishes include chicken dhania, goat sukka, and masala fish fry. Vegetarian options include kadai paneer, made from fresh homemade cottage cheese cubes cooked with mild spices, and the classic mixed vegetable curry.
The interior embodies traditional Indian design style, with the crimson booths, burnt orange walls, and classically designed wallpaper with symbols of the home country. A mix of track lighting and hanging pendants help maintain the ethnic atmosphere, and the modern vibe and uncluttered décor style allows the food to be the focal point of the dining experience.
