Roxana's - Merrillville

There was no one there when we arrived which made me anxious, but the food was phenomenal. The savory turnovers 3 with leeks and 3 with potatoes were unique and I loved the spice of the garlic yogurt sauce. My steamed lamb melted in my mouth and was fabulous, inundated with warm flavors. I also really enjoyed the brown rice with the carrots and raisins. The rice is lighter and more flavorful than most brown rices. The gyro was good, and was a typical gyro. The fries were obviously from potatoes and fried perfectly with a nice crunch but tender inside.

Great experience, a diamond in the rough! Great hospitality and great food! The green tea w/ cardamom had the perfect balance of taste and strength. The lentil soup was a bonus! Coming from NYC I have a high standard and man did this hit the spot! The ambiance was also quite calm, maybe a bit a soft Mediterranean music playing in the background would help (wouldn't hurt to explore? Highly recommended!

Great food and great service! You get alot of food for the price! The yogurt chicken is absolutely amazing! Everything we had was delicious! Will not disappoint!

Delicious food!! Lamb was great!! Hummus was great!! And make sure you try the rice with carrots and raisins!! That was amazing!! Also has a big selection of sandwiches and hamburgers and even tacos.!! Try the skewered meat dishes!!

I eat at Roxana's regularly. It is truly a gem, hidden in plain sight. The family who owns it is kind. Service is good, albeit slow at times. The food is delicious and the prices are totally reasonable. It's also a great place to eat on a no- or low-carb diet because you can skip the rice and bread and still feel totally satisfied eating the protein and vegetables. The lamb is INCREDIBLE! Get your spinach on the side if you order the lamb and spinach so you get more lamb. They have an all-you-can-eat buffet on Wednesdays.
