Had a great experience at The Yellow Chilli, Plano, TX. They were clearly short-staffed the day we visited, but despite that, the team really took good care of us. Service never felt ignored, and we appreciated the effort.

A special shoutout to Aman, who was attentive, polite, and made sure we were comfortable throughout the meal.

The food was absolutely amazing the butter chicken was rich and flavorful, the lamb chops were perfectly cooked and tender, and the Champaran goat was outstanding with authentic, bold spices. Every dish was well presented and full of taste.
They made my mom’s b’day memorable.

Definitely coming back again!

Our server Anthony was great here. The ambiance of restaurant is good. We tried the nalli rogan josh, kababs, daal and onion chilly naan. Everything tasted perfect, kebabs were juicy and mutton was thoroughly cooked. Loved our vist

We visited Yellow Chili to celebrate a special day. We didn’t have reservations, so we arrived a bit early around 6:50 PM. The restaurant wasn’t too busy at that time, and the staff was able to seat us right away.

The food was excellent—especially the Lamb Chops starter, which was cooked perfectly and full of flavor. We ordered a mix of mocktails, cocktails, as well as both vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes. The mocktails were refreshing and really well made. However, the cocktails (we tried bourbon and Buffalo Trace options) were just okay, and I wouldn’t personally recommend them.

Overall, we had a great dining experience and enjoyed our evening. One area the restaurant could improve on is general upkeep—the floors and parts of the interior could use regular maintenance, as they didn’t seem to be in the best shape.

Still, the food and service made it a nice place to celebrate.

Absolutely loved the flavors here! Definitely try nawabi paneer sangam, amritsari machhi and shahi tukda! Way too good. My friends loved meen moileec thats the fish with coconut curry! Definitely give it a try! Very few restaurants in DFW that serve food with normal spices but heavy on flavors!

I would not recommend this place if you’re looking for authentic Indian flavors. The food does not reflect true Indian taste and, in my opinion, does not live up to the standards associated with Sanjeev Kapoor’s name. The paneer appetizers were completely flavorless, and while the chicken curry was slightly better, it still wasn’t impressive. Overall, the experience was disappointing and definitely not worth the price.

Food was amazing. Every dish I ordered had its unique flavor. Tried goat biriyani, murgh suveedar, pyazz mirchroty and murgh angarbegie. My server was Alex and he’s so pleasant and helpful. He recommended these dishes for me when I asked his help. Tried few bites of everything since I wanted try at least 2 different desserts. Amen was the other server who helped me to pick desserts. He’s great and explained me about some other dishes that I should try next. Definitely coming back. Please keep the good quality. If you haven’t tried this place , you should. This is a totally different experience. God bless you all

My babe and I truly enjoyed the food, service AND ambiance! We came for lunch and had the butter chicken and curry goat with naan. Everything was very flavorful and sooo good! Our server Alex was very attentive and helpful with the menu. We will absolutely return and bring some friends. 10/10 recommend!

Aman was amazing! He was attentive and informative, and the food was incredible. Perfect for someone who is a little wimpy when it comes to spice. But the flavors were incredible, and the service was speedy! Please get the Kesari Kulfi with Rabdi for desert. It’s a buttery saffron ice cream. So delicious. Will definitely be back!

We recently visited The Yellow Chili in Plano for the first time, and overall, we had a really good experience — especially when it came to the food. Everything we ordered was flavorful, beautifully presented, and clearly made with care. I can see why so many people recommend this place, and I’d absolutely go back again for the dishes alone.

The restaurant itself is a bit smaller inside than I expected from the outside, but once we were seated, I was impressed by how elegant and welcoming it looked. The décor is stylish yet comfortable, and the lighting and atmosphere make it feel warm and inviting. It’s definitely one of those places that feels perfect for both a casual dinner and a special night out.

Now, onto the food — we ordered two main dishes: the Butter Chicken and another one that had a coconut-based sauce (I wish I could remember the name!). Both were delicious, rich, and full of complex flavors. The butter chicken was creamy and perfectly spiced without being overpowering, and the coconut dish had this subtle sweetness that balanced everything beautifully. The portion sizes were generous too, which was a nice surprise.

Where the experience fell short, unfortunately, was the service. We mentioned to our waitress that it was our first time visiting and that we weren’t too familiar with Indian cuisine, hoping she might offer a few recommendations or explain some of the options. Instead, she just looked at us as if we were joking and didn’t offer any suggestions at all. It was a little awkward, and it made us feel like we were bothering her just by asking.

Because of that, we ended up just ordering a couple of main dishes instead of exploring appetizers or other menu items — which was disappointing, since we genuinely wanted to learn more about the cuisine. I think a little friendliness or guidance would have gone a long way in making the experience more welcoming.

Despite that, I can’t say enough good things about the food itself. Every bite was delicious, and it’s clear that the kitchen knows what they’re doing. If the service had matched the quality of the food and the atmosphere, this would have been an easy five-star review.

Overall, I’d still recommend The Yellow Chili to anyone who loves flavorful, authentic Indian food. Just be prepared that the service might not be as warm or attentive as you’d hope — but the food is definitely worth the visit.
