Sabri Nihari

Devon Avenue has plenty of South Asian restaurants, and one of our favorites is this Pakistani spot that’s been a Rogers Park staple since 1996. This brightly lit, sit-down restaurant is large, with plenty of tables, so it’s a great spot for large groups—perfect for sharing their hefty servings. The crispy vegetable pakora are fantastic starters but then make sure to order some of their grilled and stewed meats. We like the smoky, barbecued chicken boti, the spicy karahi chicken, and their sabri nihari which has a rich, flavorful gravy and incredibly tender beef.
