A large group of us (8) went to this spacious, welcomingvand very clean restaurant in their Mountain View location. Although they were quite busy, we were promptly seated. Water was served quickly and the staff was attentive -- in other words they had enough people to service their patrons. The food was excellent with creative fusion of various cuisines. The cajun paneer tikka that I got was very good with the Cajun spices expressing itself nicely. The more traditional dishes such as Rabadi patties reminded me of the food I used to eat frequently more than 30 years ago! All in all a great experience. read more

In the area for our dental appt, and wanted to try a new spot. Omgosh! The four of us (all vegetarians) have found our new favorite Mountain View restaurant! The restaurant is so pretty inside and so clean! Parking is easy, even on a busy Friday evening, we found parking easily. The restrooms are really clean and the service is really professional and water refills - they are really on it! Prices are very reasonable and the food is DELICIOUS!! we ordered a ton and can't wait to come back and order more things to try next time. Definitely recommend. read more

We absolutely love this place. The waitstaff are genuinely kind and attentive, and the vegetarian food is consistently delicious -- all at a very fair price. We make a point of trying new restaurants regularly, but we often leave wishing we'd just come here instead to enjoy our favorite dishes. This is our go-to, and it never disappoints. read more

Great service by all specially Sukhdeep!!! Lovely Thali, I recommend Bhel thali. Wonderful chai! read more

Good food but some unusual service to note. I did find it odd I was discouraged from ordering a November special, server said it's not good lol. Appreciate the heads up but why offer something if it's not good . Appreciate the honest though I ordered a drink, appetizer and entree and assumed it would arrive on that order. Nope,it was opposite with my entree arriving first and drink last and I had to ask where my drink was. read more

TLDR: Great spot for no frills vegetarian indian food; reliable taste, decent portion sizes but definitely rich/greasy. Came here back to back 2 nights in row - the first night we tried some of their seasonal specials and their bhel thaali. Their bhel thaali was great lot of options. I enjoyed the besan moringa chilla was great. The highlight for me is the chaat - I LOVED their pani puri. It's quite s spicy but so delicious!! Decent ambiance, and the service is quick. read more

Too delicious. My food has never made it long enough to get a picture of. Very clean.

My favorite Indian restaurant with so many delicious dishes to choose from. Bonus is that it's all vegetarian with a handful of vegan items. I believe this location is one of their newer openings. I'd say they're all consistently tasty but my favorites that I always get are the malai paneer, pani puri, and spicy Hakka noodles. Great place to go with a group so that you can try different dishes and the wait is short. I've been to many of their chains in various locations with no issue but not sure why this time we had a waitress who gave us a lot of attitude-- to the point my friend was too intimidated to order more food. It made our dining experience awkward whenever the waitress came back. Other than this one time, service tends to be decent. read more

Stopped by to try a variety of dishes, and overall it was a good experience. We ordered the snack combo, which included pani poori and sev poori. Both were fresh and delicious, though fairly similar in taste. Still, a great way to kick things off. We also tried the chili paneer and manchow soup, and both delivered. The chili paneer had good flavor, and the soup was comforting and tasty. The only miss for us was the chai, which was unfortunately pretty underwhelming compared to everything else. Service was prompt and efficient, which we always appreciate. Overall, a good spot with plenty more on the menu I'd like to explore. I'd definitely come back to try more dishes. read more

I didn't have many expectations for Chaat Bhavan. I was just looking for a quick lunch in the strip mall I happened to be in. The first thing I noticed was it was was fancier and more formal than I expected. I was just in workout clothes, so I felt a bit underdressed, but they didn't seem to care. The place was packed around 2 or 3 pm on a weekday, so service wasn't terribly fast. I saw a lot of people getting the thali, so I went for that too. It was a great decision. As with most thalis, the portion was massive, and it would probably feed two people. Unlike most other thalis, I love that it included a sampling of their desserts! It's vegetarian food, but it's so varied and filling, that meat eaters won't be disappointed. Prices weren't crazy considering the large portion, and there's plenty of parking since it's in a charmless strip mall. I'll definitely be back! read more

Went to this restaurant three days ago. I have heard a lot about this place, but I feel it is kind of overhyped. I tried their batata Sari, which was OK then tried the Rajma, which was not that flavorful was decent then had their chili cheese none which was good really like that the service was good as well. The food is decent and I'm not sure if I would want to go there again. I can go there to try this sizzlers to just give it a try. read more

Chaat Bhavan is one of those places that delivers **exactly what you're craving** when you want flavorful, fast, no-frills Indian food--with a touch of ambiance that feels more elevated than your typical casual joint. First off, the **atmosphere is surprisingly nice**--bright, clean, and lively without being chaotic. It works equally well for a casual dinner or a spicy lunch break with coworkers. The **menu is stacked** with all the classics (yes, the chaat selection is deep) and some regional gems you don't always see. We ordered a mix--some chaats, a curry, and a dosa--and everything came out **fast** and **hot**, which is always a win in my book. The food? **Delicious.** Bold, satisfying, and **definitely on the spicier side**, even when you ask for "medium." Not for the faint of heart, but if you're into heat, you'll love it. Just maybe don't wear white. Portions are **medium-sized**--enough to fill you up but not leave you in a food coma. Which, honestly, is perfect when you're trying to sample a few things without going overboard. All in all, Chaat Bhavan brings **quick service, great flavor, and just enough atmosphere** to make it more than your average chaat stop. I'll definitely be back--with extra napkins and a lassi. read more

This restaurant is a family favorite and is always busy when we go. It is always packed with Indians, which is a great sign because it means the food is authentic. Their menu offers quite an extensive list of food options. You can enjoy Chaat varieties, indo-chinese, tandoori dishes, and traditional Indian foods. There is something for everyone. Take your time going over the menu so you don't miss anything. The restaurant only offers vegetarian dishes and there are plenty of them. Some of the dishes we have tried are: - samosa chaat - sprouts bhel - dahi papdi chaat - Hakka noodles - mixed pakoras - tandoori paneer - masala bhindi - makki di roti & saag - baigan bharta - daal makhani - tadka dal Everything has always been amazing and we have never been disappointed. We like the fusion food just as well as the traditional dishes. Nothing is too spicy, so all palates are accommodated. The staff is very nice in accommodating large groups. They'll work with you on the space and set-up you want. They will do everything to make sure your dinner goes well and you are a happy customer. I highly recommend this place. read more

Sukumar was our server, an energetic and pleasant person, who served us the thali and paratha as per our order and expectations. For two persons, it was a lot of good Indian food, as authentic as it can get in the Bay Area. All vegetarian, tasty and not very heavy, neither in spices nor in oil. Another aspect of this restaurant is cleanliness and good. service. Thumbs up to Sukuma!! read more

Had to stop going for a while... belly is out of control! Spinach and roti. Purri and really everything

Excellent food, excellent service!! Had their special thali and loved every item in there.

Excellent service , great tasting food. Our server, Yuvraj, was super attentive and friendly. He made sure we had everything on time. We had the Palak panner Kebab which was not remarkable: however, the Bhel Thali was excellent! It was so good that my husband and I decided to come here once a week. read more

I had the hakka noodles for lunch from a work delivery service, they were pretty good. Noodles were very tasty but would have been better if there was more vegetables, it was like 80-90% noodles. Portion size was generous, enough for leftovers. The menu has lots of vegan options and is well labelled. read more

First time here and we'll certainly be back! We came on a Friday evening and the restaurant was bustling. We were kindly greeted and seated at a 2-top in the attractive dining area. There were so many dishes to choose from, but we settled on three to share: pani poori, chaat samosa, and Makki Di Roti & Saag. All were flavorful and delicious. To drink I tried the chass, a refreshing buttermilk drink. Portions were generous and prices fair. We look forward to trying more dishes! read more

I decided to try something new off the January Specials list, and it was pretty good. However the dumplings felt more like kofta, and there was a lot of leftover curry which I ended up ordering garlic naan to eat with it.
