NAPERVILLE & OAK BROOK TO WELCOME A NEW RESTAURANT
NAPERVILLE & OAK BROOK–Naansense, Chicago's beloved fast-casual Indian brand, is set to spice up the suburban culinary scene with the opening of its first suburban location in Naperville, followed by another in Oakbrook. This move comes on the heels of the brand's successful return to the Loop in the summer of 2022, marking a significant milestone in its growth trajectory.
Founded by Hiran Patel and Viral Patel, Naansense has been a long-time favorite for Loop lunch-goers, and the founders are thrilled to extend the brand's reach beyond the city limits. The first suburban location, situated at 1211 E. Ogden Road in Naperville, opened this week, with another location at 1715 W. 22nd Street in Oakbrook coming soon.

THE INSPIRATION
Expressing his enthusiasm for the brand's growth, Hiran Patel, one of the co-founders of Naansense, shared, "Naansense encapsulates the essence of our childhood, shaped by our Indian upbringing in '90s Chicago. It’s a fusion of both time-honored family recipes and contemporary interpretations of Indian cuisine. Our suburban locations will have a broader menu, introducing a variety beyond Naansense's previous offerings, and I can’t wait for everyone to try it."
THE MENU
The expanded menu at the suburban locations gave Chef Hiran the opportunity to share many of his culinary favorites beyond the wraps and bowls that Naansense has become known for in the Loop. Curry meals, kebab platters, thalis, shareables and more provide delicious options for both lunchtime and dinner enthusiasts. Additionally, the new suburban Naansense locations will be serving alcohol, a range of tasty Indian cocktails and classics like Kingfisher. Inspired by family traditions and contemporary tastes, Naansense's new offerings aim to capture the essence of Indian cuisine in a fresh and flavorful way.
Viral Patel, co-founder of Naansense, expressed the brand's excitement about the expansion, stating, "We're thrilled to be expanding to the suburbs. We have long fielded requests to bring Naansense outside of just the city, and it is exciting to have reached that point."
