I have visited Chicago 3 times before for work, and I have tried to book a table in Thattu Chicago with no success. I called them last week to see if there's any opening for Sunday dinner and left a voicemail. To my surprise, they reached out t

I really loved it here! The staff was so kind and it truly cured some of the homesickness I had as Kerala food isn't so common to get :)

I was thrilled to hear that Thattu was finally a restaurant (had frequented their pop-ups many times). Have been a few times and have found the food to be delicious and consistent, delivered straight from the kitchen piping hot. Having been to Keral
Update after owner reply: Understood that it was peak
Update after owner reply: Understood that it was peak time. The issue is communication: no posted notice about reservations, and being turned away with no wait estimate or waitlist after we came via Yelp with a hungry kid. It isn't realistic t
Great spot! Very chill interior and bar setting.
Overall, I really appreciated that the curry was true to south indian style curry, specifically to Kerala. Personally, I could always use more spice with my dishes, but I did enjoy my dinner experience regardless. Our favorites were: prawns dish and
So as a malayalee myself, was expecting a lot.
Maybe should have gone in with more fine dining expectations but it's okay! Got the meen polichatthu - good but not my favorite one. Was super saucy rather than masala-y and fried fish. Sides were yummy. Beef and porotta was my least favorite -
Food was okay but felt overpriced.
They used to employ a no tipping business model as it's already reflected in the menu prices . But went a few weeks ago and not only did price go up, but also they switched back to a tipping model like every restaurant. Unfortunately, they didn&
Average experience overall.
The Appam was way too thick. The goat stew and chicken curry were pretty good

Loved the vibe and menu -- creative but still rooted in familiar South Indian flavors. The Kothu Porotta was the absolute standout for me: spicy, comforting, packed with flavor, and everything I wanted it to be. The Kadala Curry with appam was good -

My husband and I went to dinner at Thattu tonight to celebrate my birthday! We were so excited to try the menu and it did not disappoint in the slightest! The restaurant itself is a really nice space. It's light, there are cool pictures &
Unique cuisine; do not miss
What a superb meal! Keralite cuisine is distinct from what many have experienced of Indian fare. The dishes here were both authentic yet tastefully modern. As a side note, it is also readily apparent that the owners care for their employees (tips are

When people say Indian restaurant it usually doesn't mean
When people say Indian restaurant it usually doesn't mean this type of Indian restaurant. Most of the dishes usually are from the northern regions of India. Thattu on the other hand is a very rare find from the South. Moreover from Kerala itself. A
Tried Thattu recently, and had a great experience.
First loved how you order through the phone makes sense and wonder why more restaurants aren't doing this. The food was good, the porotta and short rib was exceptional. The one thing that was a challenge is the you can't get any extra bread or Appum

We came for lunch and I'm so very sad we were too full to order more. The food and hospitality absolutely live up to all the accolades we have read. Street parking, friendly greeting and easy to order in the QR code app. And even easier to add to y

Too much hype, too little substance
We went there really excited about trying out this place - we were disappointed, to say the least. The coffee was cold -- they did give us a fresh hot cup when we asked. The food is really average .. small bites, high prices. We were asked to move
Unique and Special Indian Cuisine
Unique dishes worth the trip to Avondale. You won't find a traditional Indian offer, which is what makes this place special and a treat.
I actually was disappointed in the restaurant.
It gets fantastic reviews but was underwhelmed. There is zero ambiance- in fact it reminds me of a cafeteria. The food was decent (thats why 3 stars instead of 2. Everything is ordered from your phone- which didn't work for us-- the one wait person

The food was excellent! My favorite were the prawns and the mussels. The mezcal drink had a nice spice. The yucca balls were bright and tasty. We also really liked the online tab and the no tip structure.

Food was ok.
There was a lot of warmth and heat in the dishes and not so much what I would consider flavor. The Kerala fried chicken bites were pretty good and definitely the standout. The kappa bonda fried yucca balls were OK--not a lot of flavor but the onion t
Great food, great service and vibe.
Location is a bit hard to get to but it's worth it. The chicken bites were spectacular. No idea how they got it that crisp without any greasiness at all. And the drinks are super inventive. I had this thing called a Monsoon with mango juice and lime

We went for a lunch date and it didn't quite feel like a date since you get your own silverware and cups, etc. but the food made up for the casual service. We started with crispy chicken bites which were made with dark meat so the exterior was crunch

overall: 3.
5 food: 4 ambience: 2.5 service: 1.5 this was recommended by a number of my Indian friends, and much like my fav spot in the city, Basant, it focuses on a specific cuisine that is not the standard American Indian fare. which i love and appreciate!

Very rarely does a place get 5 stars, in my opinion, but Thattu is such a place. Opened up by a friendly couple, one of the partners is the chef and can be seen serving and picking up plates; arrogance is not something you will find here, not in thei

Low-Key, Good Setting, Excellent Value
Thattu is a keeper -- so say two couples having enjoyed a very pleasant dinner. Sharing the small plates meant tastes all around the varied menu -- exploration encouraged -- and the value is excellent. We'd recently enjoyed a highly stimulating trip
Excellent Indian cuisine!
Great Kerala cuisine! There’s some serious depth to each dish being served and upon leaving I immediately made my next reservation. We tried multiple curries, the beet pastry puff along with a couple desserts and everything was incredibly flavorful
Regional Indian charmer
It took months to get this reservation! We finally got in by accepting a 5:30 pm time slot. When I mentioned this, we were told that lunch reservations (served Friday-Sunday) are easier to get. Thattu is in a repurposed industrial space west of th
Fantastic Kerala restaurant in Chicago
Fantastic atmosphere and amazing food. The Kerala chicken bites are my favorite menu item, but the "chaater tots" made with chaat masala were a revelation. I can't wait to go back and try some of the other dishes. This place and its lovely

New South Indian restaurant in Chicago
Great place! Great atmosphere! Food was delicious. Portion size it small though. But I quite liked the fact that service charge is included and we didn’t need to worry about that. Definitely will go back

Les acheteurs peuvent prendre des décisions éclairées grâce aux évaluations automatisées des vendeurs, qui reflètent les transactions passées et la fiabilité.
Chaque annonce sur AppointmentTrader vous montre quel utilisateur l’a soumise et fournit également un historique de cet utilisateur qui indique son niveau d’expérience ainsi que le pourcentage de ses transactions ayant abouti à un remboursement.
Si aucune annonce ne correspond à votre emploi du temps, vous pouvez faire une offre sur votre créneau préféré.
Disons que Peter passe une excellente matinée et décide d’emmener ses trois amis à Thattu Chicago à 18h le même jour.
Il consulte le site du restaurant et constate qu’aucune réservation n’est disponible. Il regarde alors la page Thattu Chicago sur AppointmentTrader, mais ne trouve aucune annonce d’utilisateur non plus.
C’est là que le système d’enchères communautaire entre en jeu.
Peter peut placer une enchère sur AppointmentTrader, qui servira de récompense à tout membre de la communauté choisissant d’aider à trouver une réservation. AT avertit alors les utilisateurs expérimentés qui pourraient être en mesure d’aider.
Processus étapes par étapes
1.) Définir une récompense (enchère)
* AppointmentTrader utilise des données historiques pour recommander un montant de récompense raisonnable pour obtenir une réservation – disons 100 $.
* Peter souhaite vraiment y aller, alors il augmente l’enchère (ou récompense) à 200 $.
* À ce stade, la réservation n’existe pas encore.
2.) Un membre de la communauté prend l’enchère
* MaternalRecord73, un utilisateur expérimenté d’AT, a un historique solide de réservations réussies et peu de demandes de remboursement, il reçoit une notification concernant l’enchère de 200 $ de Peter.
* MaternalRecord73 accepte l’enchère, ce qui signifie qu’il va maintenant tenter d’obtenir la réservation.
* Peter peut désormais poser toutes ses questions à MaternalRecord73 pendant que ce dernier travaille sur sa demande.
3.) Trouver la réservation
* MaternalRecord73 utilise maintenant ses relations chez Thattu Chicago pour obtenir la table.
* S’il parvient à avoir la table de 18h pour quatre personnes, Peter reçoit une confirmation lui indiquant que la réservation est sécurisée.
* Si MaternalRecord73 n’arrive pas à obtenir la réservation, l’enchère est remise en jeu pour qu’un autre utilisateur puisse tenter sa chance.
4.) Paiement & Protection
* Une fois la réservation sécurisée, MaternalRecord73 reçoit la récompense de 200 $ qui est créditée sur le solde AT de MaternalRecord73, où les utilisateurs gèrent leurs fonds et peuvent retirer leur argent via les options disponibles comme virement bancaire, PayPal ou Zelle.
* Peter peut alors profiter du dîner avec ses amis à Thattu Chicago !
* Comme pour toutes les transactions sur AT, les litiges et les frais d’absence sont gérés via le système communautaire de résolution de la plateforme. Les utilisateurs ayant un bon historique sont incités à honorer les enchères, et les membres de la communauté peuvent signaler les problèmes pour maintenir la confiance sur la marketplace.
