Not my first time at Chandni Chowk, but this time we tried a few different things--Chhole Samosa, Papdi Chaat, Dahi Puri, and of course the live golgappe and chah (pretty sure they call it Matka Chai). The chhole were excellent--perfect color, perfect taste. Samosa was just okay. Papdi chaat was also fine, though I kept wishing they added a bhalla (vada) in there--it would take it to the next level. Dahi puri was okay too, but honestly I only wanted one or two of those... would've been great if the last golgappa at the live station could be a dahi one. The chai was disappointing this time--not the same as before. Ambiance and vibe are always fun here, and service was quick, which I appreciate. read more

I have been a fan of Aavash since he opened his first truck Momo Cook. It has been an honor watching his journey to now opening a restaurant featuring all his best dishes. The food quality has stayed consistent for over 6 years. He makes the most flavorful chowmein and the orange sauce he makes is the best it goes well with everything. Anytime aim craving momo or chowmein I think about his dishes. It was my first time trying the full menu. I enjoyed the BBQ chicken with rumali roti it was very smooth and savory. I had the dahi vada and lakhpati chaat and enjoy the lakhpati more because it has some crunch and more flavor. The chai was also good my husband ordered it twice and it was served in a cute tradition chai holder stand. I appreciated the amount of detail they paid attention to maintain the vibe of chandni chonk. His chowmein is not oily and has so much flavor just eating alone is a party for your taste buds. The ambience if the restaurant is super cute and authentic. You can see that they put a lot of time and energy into crafting their menu and decorating the restaurant. I am so happy that this great food is now available in Milpitas. read more

Chandni Chowk is a chain chaat place that serves high quality street food in the Bay. This location in Fremont is a food truck where you can get live pani puri (you get 8 with 1 order and can choose which of the 5 panis you'd like to try). We did have to wait in line for a bit for our order, but the samosa chaat was flavorful and delicious. The pani puris were also unique and fun to eat. This place is great for a quick snack and good vibes, and it's also next to to Deccan Morsels and Apni Mandi. read more

The atmosphere would make you feel like you're in India. My friends and I had their chhole kulche and golgappe. The service was super quick for chhole kulche but golgappe since it's live counter it's a little slow. The chhole kulche were piping hot which was awesome. It tasted great but wouldn't say it was authentic kulche. Golgappe were not bad. They had 5-6 flavors of paani, but in my opinion apni mandi has better golgappe. read more

The place gets 5 stars for its pani puri. 8 puris for 8.99 with four flavors. Def try their mint and khatta meetha water. The pomegranates and Kala khata water are so so flavored. The service is fast. I really like the concept of outside fire pits and wish they had a larger area with more fire pits. We tried their samosa chaat and it frankly sucked. We couldn't eat it and had to toss it in the trash. I have been here several times for the pani puri and will go again for only that. The Matka chai is also so so. I'd recommend getting chai from Chaiwalla instead. read more

Live pani puri with several options for the pani is their top sellers. You get a buzzer and at once 2-4 folks are served live. Great idea in an excellent location with good ambiance. The surrounding place is lively, gives you good Indian street food vibes. Chole kulche and dahi poori didn't impress as much as pani puri. Several revisits only for the live pani puri. read more

Food: They just add chilli sauce and a TON of oil to the top of the Cholay, these are not good. Their dahi vada was good. Service: Took cash from me, gave me no receipt and kept my change, when I asked for change they said they didn't have it and tried to give me parle G crackers?? You need to have a sign that says no change if you take cash, and receipts need to be provided, 0 understanding of liability and implied a desire to take advantage of the situation. I paid for the food, I asked for change, I let it go that they didn't have it and refused the biscuits and then they had the audacity to be rude to me. No thanks :) read more

TL;DR: - pass on the chai tea and try the momo dumplings next door instead. parking: - generous parking available wait time: - zero ambiance: - unique food truck experience that comes with several fireplaces and music. food: [Not Worth It] - chai tea: decided to try this since we wanted a hot beverage on a chilly evening night. Everyone else around us was ordering this so we thought it likely was good. It was not the case! It tasted very bland and thick-- after 2 sips I couldn't finish it. read more

Found this amazing gol gappa/ pani puri place that satisfies my delhi craving after 8 years of search!! Love their short and sweet menu and fantastic dance songs blaring out of a food truck near apna bazar indian store in fremont. The staff is friendly and the line is always long :) They have live paani puri counter where u can choose from 4-5 different flavors of dipping water - so cool!! I just loved the "khatta meetha". Another highlight for me was the banta soda or kanchhe wali bottal if u all remember from school days back home in india. The masala and the tastte was so refreshing and nostalgic. Mazaaaa!! Slightly more expensive for the price i would want to pay at a food truck but worth it for gol gappa and banta $6. Chk out menu pic below. Dahi sev puri was average - good quality ingredients but very soggy and over loaded. read more

Colorful food truck (as in North India) and they play bollywood music to set the vibe. We tried the golgappas with spicy water (they have 5 kids of water to choose from). Also Dahi poori chaat. The Dahi poori chat was great but we have had better at other places. This place has lot of potential. Expect long lines so if you want to avoid crowd, go when they open (4pm). Strictly vegetarian menu. There is a momo truck next to eat if you want meat based options. read more

Interesting food truck in this tiny parking lot. I tried the pani puri and they scoop it for you live one at a time. But you have to eat it right away before you can get the next one. I was a little shocked at this because I'm so used to just getting food at once but I had no choice so I ate some pani puris (like 4?) in a row. They were a bit spicy but I liked the tangy flavors overall. I liked them all! It's a bit messy though so you will probably spill a lot in your little bowl. I would come back again. read more

Where to begin. This spot just hits different. It's nostalgic on wheels. Its one of the few places in the bay that serve live pani puri. And they have multiple flavors. The service is comparatively fast, based on the amount of people that crowd up this spot. Also, there is always Indian music playing which makes you wanna dance :D Apart from the pani puri, which is very good, I have also tried some of the other chaats here which are very tasty as well. The food along with the ambiance here makes me wanna drive 45 mins to reach here :) read more

One of the best Indian food trucks in Fremont. They serve tasty chai in clay cups (disposable) making it feel super authentic. My favorite item from their menu is chole with is serviced with chapati/roti but I like to get an extra one. If you're a fan of spicy food then you'll love the food. The food truck is located across from Fremont Apni Mandi. The parking might be a challenge but not impossible. On the weekends this location gets super busy making it a fun place to visit. Would definitely recommend. read more

Had a great time enjoying food truck style desi food with my family! The bollywood music and dhaba style "tables" makes it feel like you're in india! The food, though on the pricier side, was really good! We got some dahi puri, chole kulcha, and thumbs up from the first truck and got hakka noodles, momos, and schezwan potatoes from the second. The highlights for me were definitely the schezwan potatoes and hakka noodles, so good! Also ended the night with paan from Apna Bazaar, definitely recommend for a fun evening out with friends and/or family! read more

Came here late evening for dinner. It's food truck trying to give you India feels for having pani puri outside. The Togo service was quick but the wait for pani puri stall was crazy long. Very loud music playing in background can get annoying real quick and is uncalled for. I got the chole bature and samosa chole for to go. Both were decent tasting and can recommend. Samosas filling was bit hot. Pani puri is bit hyped and flavors are okay. Overall pricy place and you get 10 puris for pani puri. Not sure if I'll visit again but for one time it's okay. read more

Updating my review based on owners feedback. I do review small business and give my authentic review. If I like it or i do not, then it reflects on my review. I take my Elite status seriously too. New version: Pros - What caught my eye is how lively and vibrant the scene looked. It felt like I was transported back to India. Perfect street style vibes, live bands performing music on some days, vibrant colors, hustle bustle and warmth from the colorful fire pits. - Desi food, peppy music and surrounded by fellow snack food lovers. - Ample parking - Absolutely visit if you are feeling homesick or missing India. - My niece and I were dancing happily to the beats of the music and enjoyed our visit here. - Lot of street food snack options at this food truck. Chai is being raved about. Cons - I have only tried pani puri here and not satisfied with the taste, freshness or the flavors of pani. I only liked the mint water. The filling was less and lacked flavor. 8.99$ for 1 plate of pani puri is on the pricy side. I have had better and tastier live pani puri for lesser price in Fremont area. I have not tired other dishes so I cannot comment on them. Old version: Not sure whats the hype about this place but the pani puri my family and I had last night was a joke. Only the mint water was decent rest all were not tasty. Vibe is great. Music, fire pits, colorful arena. read more

I think one of the best things about the Bay Area is the multitude of authentic or near-authentic foods and experiences of different cultures. My boyfriend and I randomly stumbled upon this gem of a place in while visiting Apni Mandi, a huge 24-hour Indian grocery store. We noticed the lively and warm energy and checked it out. We ordered matka chai and a set of pani puri (8 in each set). The chai was so comforting - creamy, sweet, and spiced. The pani puri experience was fun and delicious. The outer shell is crispy, filled with potato, and then dipped into pani puri water. There were 5 pani puri waters. The pineapple one was unique and delicious. The staff were nice The area was clean. My favorite was the firepits. I didn't see any restrooms but it seems to be more of a quick hangout spot. I highly recommend :) read more

Amazing experience that took me way back in time. Loved the vibe, the setup the entire atmosphere and the very specially decorated/painted truck just made everything perfect. We ordered quite a few rounds of Live Pani Puri and topped that up with cutting chai. All but for the Pomegranate water for the Pani Puri were a hit and tasted pretty authentic (as much as it could get :) ). Wait times can be a bit crazy on weekends though weekdays would not turn out to be that bad if you have made it early in the evening to the truck. Would love to go back and try the other options they got on the truck for sure. read more

Took me back to india. Such a cool experience eating pani puri served individually that you're transported to Panjab. I really enjoyed tons of flavors of pani puri water. Samosa chat was great! I do think the chai could be a little sweeter/tastier - but it's hard to make chai to fit everyone's taste/ preferences so that's expected. Service was fast, and the seating takes you back to dhabas in panjab. I love the fun atmosphere in the evening, it's such a vibe with fun music! read more

It's not just a place you go eat Indian street food at, it's a vibe, an emotion. And if you've had a rough day it can also be a refuge, where you can let the 90s Bollywood music take you back to the happy days of your childhood. 5 stars for the Pani Puri because you get 8 pieces instead of 6 like at other places. That means you can try all 5 flavors and then use the remaining 3 puris to go seconds or thirds on your fave flavor . Dahi Sev Puri also comes with 8 puris stuffed to the hilt with potatoes, yogurt, Sev and their very tasty chutneys. 7 stars for the ambience they have created with the fire pits, the oil drums and the amazing music. The servers are all very nice and polite too. They are open till midnight all 7 days, so don't wait too long to go experience this place. read more

Go for the ambiance.. it transports you back to your Indian street food experience. We had a plate of pani puri with a variety of flavors !! Kala ghatta, ghatta meetta and pine apple were team favorites. The dahi puri was colorful and full of dahi.. a bit overwhelming. All in all I'd come back. But please be more mindful of the establishment and don't steal their tea cups! read more

Came to Chandni Chowk on a Saturday evening following some recommendation on Instagram. I'm glad I did not drive all the way just for this, met up with a friend so that made up for the drive. The food is pricey and I did not find it as unique as described in many Instagram blogs. The matka chai was the worst purchase, the flavor of the chai was alright but you could feel the matka taste, and maybe my specific matka was not baked all the way so I could feel the clay. The pani puri was more or less same as anywhere else but they are pricier though they give 8 it's better to split between two. The dahi papdi chat was the best of the three items we had and was a little bit on the sweeter side. Service was great we were with a toddler and the gentleman at the pani puri counter entertained her with some dry puris, kudos on that. Ambiance was indeed great, am sure it gets better as the sun goes down. Music was punchy and ample space to stand around. Parking is a bit tough as you have to park across the street in the lot shared with Apna Bazaar and that's always busy. read more

Funky food truck with Bollywood music playing in the background! The vibe is one of eating street food in India. Have to get tokens and wait for the buzzer for both food and panipuri. Food came very quickly despite the crowd but the pani puri buzzer took a long while to ring. We got the samosa chat, chole kulche and cutting chai. Both food items were good, the chole itself was very tasty, although the kulcha had a slight aftertaste to it, but eating it with the chole, yogurt and pickle hit the spot. Definitely needs to be eaten in front of the truck though, likely won't be as good if packaged. There's a few drums which people can use as ad hoc tables. Standing space only. The cutting chai was tasty although pricey, matka chai is also available, at a higher price. Panipuri has 5 different waters one can choose from for each puri. The pomegranate and pineapple were not for us, tasted odd. The mint, khattha meetha and kala kattha were ok, nothing exceptional. They put aloo masala in the puris before dunking it in the water, so for folks looking for the style of pani puri where hot chole and chutneys are available for inside the puris, this is not the place for that. The food above was enough for two people, there is momo truck next to it which was tempting but we were full. Parked in the lot in the opposite street where there are other stores. read more
