Black Pepper Lounge 1515 Butterfield Road, Aurora, IL 60502

"If you want to taste an authentic South Indian Kerala food, definitely the Black Pepper Lounge should be on your list. The food here is very tasty and fresh. In my 7 visits, my family and I tried various food items like pal appam, Kerala parotta, beef ularthiyathu, chicken fry, Idiyappam, chicken briyani, kadala curry, chicken and Veg stew. All are very tasty and yummy. Food I felt is always fresh. They take extra care to prepare fresh, so preparation may take some time. I usually place the order before I go. So Food will arrive in short time. The place is very neat and clean. It also has a bar."

"A good place for Kerala cuisine. The chicken and paratha weren't the best. Other food was quite decent. Service could have been faster"

"My family loves Indian food but never had food from this region which was quite different than we're use to, but it was all fantastic. I had eaten lunch there this afternoon and knew I had to bring my family back, so we came that very night! We ordered way too much food, trying a variety of things, ate too much, but loved everything we had. The staff was amazing, letting us know little historical details about the food and how it was served. Give it a try. You won't regret it and I know we'll be back to try evem more of their wonderful dishes!"

"Impressive experience! The cuisine here is top-notch, accompanied by excellent service. Eagerly anticipating my next visit. The flavors were delightful, especially for first-timers like us, as the staff guided us in selecting delicious dishes."

"I was amazed by food, atmosphere and service. I came with my friends and we tried a lot of meals and each was made to the perfection. Everything tasted so good and spices were so well balanced! Meals are made from scratch and you can taste the freshness and high quality. I think it's the best Indian restaurant from all I have tried in our west suburbs. Atmosphere and interior design is Europeanian, very polished, 5 star! This restaurant exceeded our expectations. We are definitely coming back for more! Highly recommend to try!"
