My first time eating a dosa, it was great! I love the crispy outside and fluffy inside with the different fillings. Everyone was super friendly. Order at the Kiosk (a little overwhelming, the menu is huge!) and they deliver to your table. Lots of to go orders. Plenty of parking right out front. read more

Please check your container if ordering the curry of the day as this is second time we were told on the phone north curry is vegetable korma and when husband ordered on kiosk and picked up and brought it home, it was Chana masala. Both are tasty but the miscommunication is not acceptable. And of course, checking what we are getting before we leave the restaurant helps address the issue there - no one is going to make the trip back to get the issue fixed. read more

I asked the manager on May 17 to give me a lager cup/bowl for sambhar so I could dip Idli in Sambhar . He refused . I asked him to refund money which he did. Never to eat I'm this place. read more

Chaotic! Most of the times the fresh juice is not available. If the sugarcane is available it tastes like raw paper.

This was one of my first times having authentic indian cuisine, and it certainly didn't disappoint. My dear friend are vegan, and this is one of their favorite spots. I can see why! Luckily, I had them order their favorite dishes. Everything was so delicious. From the various chutney flavors to the lentil soup, fry bread, and dosa, it was so very tasty. Do note that it is self-service. You order at a kiosk, get your own chutney, and drinks. They simply bring out your food (on paper plates). While the service left something to be desired, the food was great. read more

We tried their weekend breakfast buffet. Has South Indian breakfast items. Has good options and Sambar was very very good. Their medhu vadai was sour for some reason which was not good. Very good for the price. The place has good seating and it's overall clean. read more

Really enjoyed the authentic Indian street food and snacks available at Chaat n Dosa. I had the chole bature but other members of our party ordered the samosa chaat. Both were delicious. We also ordered the family sized dosa and found it hard to finish between 5 people. We tried 3 slices of cake - butterscotch, chocolate, and strawberry shortcake. They were good, but you could tell they had been sitting in the display case for a while. Not to worry though - Chaat n Dosa does offer cakes specially made for events and these look extremely impressive! read more

The food was very good. We went on a monday for their Chole Bhature special and it came out nice and fresh. It also came out pretty fast. Overall great experience and nice sitting areas!! read more

This is a great place in a small shopping center. There's plenty of shared parking in the parking lot. The staff were friendly and welcoming. They have a computer screen where you can place your orders when you walk up or you can place it with the employee who's in the front The seating area is all inside. The food is very tasty and seasoned well. The prices are reasonable and affordable. They have several vegan options to the vegetarian meals. I hope that you enjoy as much as I did. read more

Finally tried this spot out for lunch and would recommend stopping by. You order from a kiosk so if you're not familiar with Indian street food, you may feel overwhelmed by the menu. The prices are very reasonable and the food came out quickly. The restaurant itself is low frills and the food is authentic. There were a lot of people there and the staff was efficient and nice. I loved the samosa chaat. I also got a combo platter that I liked some parts of (paratha, daal, soup, and dessert were excellent) and didn't like other parts of (rice and curry were not to my liking). I would order something else next time like a dosa combo. The chai was unsweetened but otherwise balanced. read more

This place's food gave me great joy- lovely although the chutneys I ordered & paid extra for did not match the ones I got - mango pickle instead of onion chutney, but hey- it was still tasty. And authentic. Was wonderful to be able to order online & just pick it up. (You do kind of have to already be familiar a bit with Indian & this type of 'snack' food to order from here). Also, was frustrating that the ordering menu online for yelp was different than the ordering platform the store directly uses (larger more interesting!) The store platform required all my information- mailing address, etc.- for me to order online, which is ok for billing but....did not submit a card at that time. (And told me after confirming it received my order that I was agreeing to receiving promo contact from the seller- not thrilled about that either.) Appears that if you order in the store, you may need to pay debit or cash (can't totally confirm the details tho- I was starving when I picked up my food & read that in passing, with slight confusion). Did not include or offer any plasticware or napkins either for a sizeable to go order- guessing could have grabbed some on the way out. (In addition to other items, I bought 2 different curry meals which included rice & roti- also wonderful). All said, I'd definitely go back but would order & choose to dine in. Dining in ambiance is not more than a snack shop set up but just would be a nice change from taking out. Plus I spent way too much money by ordering at a distance Next time I'll slow down & take pics of the food I eat- we were ravenous and couldn't be slowed down for such things. read more

What a refreshing a change to Indian food scene in Charlotte. I really enjoyed my food here - chole Bhature was so tasty. That bhatura was soooooo good! Reminds me of eating one in India. Dahi puri was just okay - didn't like as much. We also tried vada sambhar and that was good. There was 2 types of Sambhar, and both were tasty. We then tried Dabeli - which was again just okay. Nothing great. Overall I liked the place - I would love to revisit and try some more items on the menu. read more

Buffet morning review 1. Vada is very small 2. Poori looks like taco chips with full of oil. One pori split to 6 saggy taco chips. 3. Idly is not soft 4. Sambar is not tasty Overrated for 9.99 but need to take of stomach on a weekend. Owner has deleted my review in a group chat and very rude on response read more

A popular Indian café in Charlotte's Ballantyne neighborhood, this vegetarian and vegan-friendly establishment serves up tons of spice (flavor) and tasty snacks. There is online ordering available and if you order on your phone, you'll receive 5% off your purchase. There's also a self-serve bar for chutneys and sauces. What I tried: MEDU VADA- Crispy fried donut made with lentil batter and mixed with spices. - Pairs perfectly with the coconut and ginger chutneys. IDLI - Steamed cakes made with rice and lentil batter, served with sambhar and chutneys. - Shines best when paired with the chutneys as the spread provides the flavor. MASALA DOSA - Dosa filled with mashed potatoes and spices. - Absolutely delicious. CHOLE BHATURE- Bhature is a fluffy, deep fried thin bread. Made with plain flour, fried and served with chickpea curry (chole). - MANDATORY - the buttery taste is KING. ALOO TIKKI CHAAT - Aloo Tikki is a snack made of boiled potatoes, peas, curry spices, and topped with garbanzo and tamarind chutney.- The yogurt in this dish gives it a slight sweetness which I loved. Also featured in Reel: Cone Dosa Coconut Chutney Madras Sambar Ginger Chutney read more

Passing through the area and my wife was in need of some comfort food. We stopped here to order take out. For us the place was perfect, reminded us of food from various family members back home.

This chaat N Dosa location is a place for real Dosas. I have tried their paneer masala dosa, which was soo delicious and the aloo ( potatoes) were soo yummy. Me and my kids loves it. Bhatura ( fried big round tortilla bread) is soo soft and melts right in your mouth. Samosa and medhu Vada was good and it taste better with green coconut chutney. My fav!! I love everything from this location and great customer service. Definitely go to ! read more

This is my authentic Indian street food restaurant. There are many that are like it, but this one is mine. I have been to many Indian street food restaurants and Chaat N Dosa is second to none of them. Recently, my wife and I ordered their family meal for 3 which comes with 9 items--3 chaats/snacks, 3 tiffins/dosas/combos/thali, and 3 desserts/drinks. Specifically, we tried Dabeli, Bhel Puri, Dahi Bhalla Papdi Chaat , North Indian Thali To Go, Malabar Parotta with Curry, Chole Bhature, Rasamalai, Gulab Jamun, and Mango Lassi. Every single one of these dishes blew me away. I would recommend them all. read more

When Tonya says I need to try a new Indian place, I know I need to prioritize trying it. Covid-19: you can order and pay online. The food was ready and waiting for us when we got there. We got their family meal for 3. This comes with 3 chaats, 3 Tiffins/Dosas/Thalis/Combos, and 3 desserts/drinks. I loved this option. 3 desserts was probably a little more than we needed, so I probably would have rather had more chaats. This was an insane amount of food. We only eat once a day, so my husband and I usually eat for 3 people between the two of us. The amount of food we got lasted us for 6 meals. It's definitely enough food for 5-6 people. I love leftovers, so no complaints here. We got Dabeli, Bhel Puri, Dahi Bhalla Papdi Chaat , North Indian Thali To Go, Malabar Parotta with Curry, Chole Bhature, Rasamalai, Gulab Jamun, and Mango Lassi. We tried several new to us dishes and my favorite new discoveries were Dabeli, Malabar Parotta, and Dahi Bhalla Papdi Chaat. I've had Bhel Puri and Chole Bhature before and loved them here too. Of the desserts, we loved the Mango Lasso and the Gulab Jamun which we have had before. The Rasamalai wasn't my favorite though. Their whole menu is vegetarian which is fine with me because while I'm not vegetarian, I always eat vegetarian at Indian restaurants. It's also street food focused which I love. I can't wait until the pandemic is over so I can come back with Tonya and order the entire menu. This place is now my favorite Indian restaurant! read more

This place has more or less become our Friday go to spot. It has a very casual dining feel with a varied menu featuring a lot of variety of dosas and chat items. You can't really go wrong with any of the dosa items. Service is quick as well. I haven't really cared much for the chat , it's kinda okay but pales in comparison with the southern fare! My daughter loves the vada pao! The owner is a really welcoming and kind person and we are happy to be regular patrons here! read more

Masala dosa fantastic!! Curries & all perfect Such low prices!!!!!! How do they do it? read more

A vegetarian spot with South Indian treats. It is open for indoor dining, and several other parties were there. I got a dosa and idli combo with a dessert, and a fried bread over chickpeas. I ordered a poori, but honestly it seemed more like a bhatura (the former is whole wheat and tends to be smaller, while the latter is a larger white bread). I underestimated the size of all of this, probably because the price was quite nice. I ended up with a substantial dosa (with a small bit of filling) and an absolutely huge bread that I couldn't quite finish, a sad an unusual event for me. I'd order differently if I had another shot at it, but I'd definitely go back. For the uninitiated, I'd definitely recommend a Thali, which is basically a sampler platter. They had a lot of delicious-looking things. read more

Came here on a whim after my friend and I left the movie theater on Rea Road. Found it on Yelp and the reviews were good so why not? Overall the food was good, service was ok. Very popular spot, they had a steady flow of customers. Order food on a kiosk and wait for your order to be up. The challenge for me was being unfamiliar with Indian food and not having someone readily available to ask questions. When we were able to find someone there was little enthusiasm on their part to interact with us. We ended up ordering a variety of items to try between us since they were reasonably priced below $10. The reason I gave 3 stars is for cleanliness. The tray that our food came out on did not appear completely clean although it had been wiped down. We moved tables because the first table looked like the last customers had a field day and left all of their food under the table. The rest of the restaurant definitely needed to be swept. I was unsure if we came at a bad time but we were there over an hour and no efforts to sweep. Again, food was good, prices were great but the bland customer service and upkeep is why I will not be back. read more

We went to this restaurant for the 2nd time this past weekend. We never really know what we are ordering, but it doesn't matter because it is ALL DELICIOUS! The thing in the bowl was Samosa Chaat, and may be the best Indian food I have ever had! Some things I love about Indian food is you can mix the different dishes different ways and get a delightfully different flavorful spoonful with every bite! And the spices just make you feel good! You should check this place out! read more

Chaat N Dosa - Vegetarian Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

I do have to say, the menu is pretty long and no information about the food description. The place is easy to find. Easy to order using a kiosk. The person who brings th food out is the person who can take cash orders. Food came out quickly. The place seemed authentic because I saw many families from the region enjoying the food. Since I didn't understand the menu, I tried to order things which seemed easy and simple to understand. The restaurant is 100% vegetarian. I feel like ti truly understand the importance and concept of this street food restaurant, you need someone from the region to help you along. I feel a customer like myself lack the knowledge to truly appreciate the cuisine and the experience. read more

Chaat N Dosa - Vegetarian Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

This place is so unique and the prices are ridiculously great for the amount of delicious food. We placed a large order to sample pretty much the whole menu and we were surprised by how heavy and filling the dishes were. This wasn't the typical curry with a whole lot of rice: rather, the dishes were filled to the brim with vegetables, lentils, chickpeas, puffed rice, and delicious sauces. My favorite dish was the Bombay Chinese Bhel. Very flavorful and addicting. One note: nearly everything was too spicy for me. But I desperately wanted to eat every single bite so I pushed through, lol. I recommend requesting less heat if your palate is sensitive like mine. read more

This place is not beginner friendly but I promise it is well worth learning how it works because it's the best chaat and dosa I've had in Charlotte thus far. The main thing to consider is that this place relies on it's patrons being independent and understanding that it's a fairly self-serve type of place. This is not a place to expect any white-glove serving. 1. If you're unfamiliar with what chaat and dosa are... Please look at the menu before going and do your Google searches prior. Choose 2-5 items for 2 people. 2. There are 2 places to order at the main counter. Left kiosk has been self-serve with card only. The right kiosk switches between self-serve and someone taking your order. It depends on how busy they are. 3. The self-serve kiosks are fairly easy to use but be mindful and refer to step 1 so you don't take up a lot of time ordering at only 1 of 2 kiosks. 4. Once you order, grab a table and grab some chutneys, cutlery, napkins, water, from the long wall. It's all self-serve. 5. Listen for your name to be called. Items will be called out as they're prepared and will likely not all come out at once. Don't be shy telling a server if you haven't received everything yet. They've got a ton of things in motion in the back kitchen. Our go-to order: Paneer Tikka masala Dosa Samosas Chole batura or thali Pani puri Mango lassi (All under $50 and we are stuffed) I know this isn't so much a review as a "how to enjoy chaat n dosa" instructions... But I just don't want people to misjudge this place due to their own preconceived notions of how a restaurant "should" run. The model works for them and the food is unmatched in Charlotte... So... Support this small business so we can enjoy chaat and dosa for many years to come!! Also... If you're still nervous to go... Hit me up and we'll go together. I won't turn down a chance to go. I'll teach you so more people can fall in love with this place. read more

This review is for everyone like me who loves Indian curries but is not well versed on Indian street food. Every time I come here, I have no idea what I'm ordering but am always pleased with whatever I get. Seriously. It's all delicious and very flavorful. Ambiance is nothing fancy, but it's clean and to the point. I recommend eating in an not ordering to go unless you live pretty close (though I have ordered to go and it was still great. The food is just its very best fresh out). Service is typically quick. But there's limited interaction with a host or server. I'm OK with that but some may not be. It sort of feels like a cafeteria setup. You order from a kiosk and the food is brought to you as it's made. The food is well priced, especially if you're looking for a quick but filling lunch or dinner for multiple people. A $9 thali could easily fill you up or you could share a curry combo with someone. Some of my faves include dahl puri (this dish is chilled/not hot), parotta with curry, potato bhajii, samosa chaat and aloo tikki chaat. Definitely worth a try if you're up for something different. read more

The food was not as good or as authentic . I would not recommend this for authentic Indian food

Chaat has great reviews and I love Indian food so I made the trip over to check out the menu on a Saturday afternoon and they were very busy with call in orders and dine in customers.  I ordered the samosas, poori channa(chick peas), and bhaji(potatoes).  I wasn't a big fan of the samosa but I enjoyed both curries and although I was told the channa wasn't spicy it did still have a kick.  The poori was hot and delicious and each curry came with 2 pieces which was more than enough.  Looking forward to visiting again. read more

Drove 45 min to this place because we wanted to eat chaats. Highlights for me- 1. They have "MASALA PURI"!!!!! Masala Puri is a people's favorite street Chaat in Bangalore and I haven't seen any restaurant serving it so far. The taste was not exactly what I expected but none the less it was nostalgic! Took me back to Bangalore. 10 points for just this. 2. The prices are pretty reasonable. Small portions, affordable rates. I love this concept because it let's you try more dishes on the menu and won't end up eating just one thing because of the heaping quantity. 3. My husband and I tried bhel Puri, masala Puri, dahi batata sev Puri , dabeli, Mysore bonda and custard apple milkshake. Everything we ordered was great except Mysore bonda which is supposed to be fluffy and light but this was too dense. The chutney was definitely not fresh. Either made the previous day or the summer heat made it smell funky. Came from the refrigerator straight. Overall a great place for you Chaat and Dosa cravings. We didn't try Dosa but definitely looked appetizing. Will definitely go back to try. read more

Amazing food!!!!!! I mean truly delicious!! So flavorful. Always very busy. Seems very authentic

Hands down best consistent Indian snacks fast and friendly service. All menu items are good

Have eaten here a few times when I've been in the area. Sometimes the dosa can start falling apart a little, but they are very good. The samosas are regular samosas, decent enough. The upma is regular upma, decent enough. The mango lassi is good. I had dahi vada and uthappam here a while ago, but don't remember what they tasted like. read more

Love. However it's not easy to order. I need more descriptions, more pictures. I am always asking what things are. Make me use more diverse

Chickoo shakes! Count me in. Tasty chaat too. Sadly, they forgot the masala for my dosa.
