Food: All of the food we ordered was superb! Spice levels were perfect for the kids although adults could tolerate more. But great flavor and taste and decent portions! Service: Our host Bharat was awesome, very kind, friendly and patient. Great service! Thank you! Ambience: Hole in the wall restaurant. Vibrant desi decor! Bollywood and desi street vibes! Nice music! Restrooms: Very clean and well maintained. Decor is great too! Parking: No problems at all. Reserved parking within the lot. All in all highly recommend! Will come again! :)

Aaloo Tikki Chaat

Went to satisfy a pain puri craving and this place doesn't disappoint. I vote this as the best pani puri place with a live counter and five flavors of water. The place is exceptionally clean and serves authentic Delhi type chaats and other dishes. I have been to both their restaurants. Here and the food truck in Fremont. See you next time I have an urge for authentic dilli style pani puri. Must mention the friendly staff who also recommended the gulab jamun cheesecake , unfortunately we had our plates and stomachs full.

I'd been craving pani puri for months - and I don't trust myself to make it. So this was a fun experience, with a live pani puri experience that mirrors what you'd find in India, standing around a card while trying different flavors (I loved the sweeter flavors). The rest of the meal was also good. I left feeling satisfied and got a wonderful experience. The decor in the place is particularly great; it's one of the best designed Indian spots I've seen.

Enough parking available Wish the parking lot was better lit Went on a weekend. Got the pani puri.. it's 8 pieces in a plate and 5 flavors. So I picked all 5 and repeated the ones I liked Also ordered the veg momo and veg triple schezwan. The chai was fantastic! The ambience of the place is so authentic. Feels like you are back in the streets of Chandni Chowk. They even played old commercials on the tv! You can order at your table but You pay at the counter.

Chole Bhature

Not quite sure what happened between visit one and two. We had some amazing food on visit one, but the second time around it was just alright. Outside of the dahi vada, the other chaat was mediocre. The papdi chat was peculiar, it had too much papdi/puri but not enough yogurt and nothing else other than chatnis. The Dahi puri was underseasoned, the chicken was swimming in butter, not a bad thing, but it was lukewarm at best. The roomali roti it came with was just alright. Perhaps we stick to the two things that we enjoyed, the dahi vada and the cholay bhature (from visit one) and assume that other dishes will be a hit or a miss.

Samosa chat and egg triple schezwan
Deepa S.

They have great Chaat options along with a live counter. I really liked their decor and the old Delhi ambience Coming to the food , this was my second visit to this place and I must say my favorite has been their aslaam chicken . It is finger licking good.. I tried their Indo Chinese options like chicken lollipop , schezwan fried rice and noodles which was also great and spicy to my liking. Our server was very polite and welcoming and food arrived on time . We were seated immediately since we arrived early to avoid the dinner rush on a Friday .

Super lively decor! Been dying to try pano park and it was quite the experience. They had 4 different flavors the day that we came: mint, really spicy, mango , and I forgot. Overall mango was refreshing. Will come back to try pineapple.

Triple schezwan with Manchuriian sauce
Prem D.

Great nostalgic place to have food and they are open late. Lafayette location is lot better than fremont one, great ambiance bringing nostalgic memories. Good service too, we went for live pani poori better than Fremont place, triple schezwan and sauce a fan favorite, proved right and pao bhaji all were tasty and just right. If you get hungry late night, place to go.

Pav Bhaji
Meghna N.

Veg / vegan review : 1. Pav bhaji (3.5/5): Asked for no butter on the pav and gravy, they did probably add a little to the pav but it's mostly vegan otherwise (got butter that would've gone on the gravy separately). It's also very greasy 2. Aalo tikki (3/5): its was all right but this is vegan. It's fully fried so greasy Despite not liking the food too much, it's very very greasy :( I really liked the service! They changed the aalo tikki chaat to the aalo tikki 2 pieces as I don't have dahi and they didn't complain and so happily did this. 't complain!

Paneer tikka
Katie K.

We did pickup order and it was fairly quick food prep. They're open till pretty late especially for a South Bay spot. The aloo tikki chaat was alright. My only complaint was that the chutneys weren't super uniformly spread and each bite ended up tasting very different. The chinese seekh kebab was alright. It was kinda of too salty and the meat quality wasn't too great. It was also dry and tough. The worst offender was the rumali roti. It was too oily and according to Saurav not thin enough to be called rumali The mumtaz chicken was quite good. It was malai-like sauce with grilled chicken. The chicken was a bit dry but I did like the smokey char on it from the grilling. The veg momo was pretty chill. It kind of reminded me of Korean dumplings (in a good way)

Restaurants checkout desk.

Tried Chandni Chowk for the first time and it was a hit for us especially the gol Guppas since I'm from Delhi. The variety of water it very enticing but I had my two favorites which were mint and khata meetha. My son enjoyed the chicken tikka masala. The naans were very delicious and melted in the mouth. The samosa chaat was okay. Could have been better. But overall a good place to enjoy desi food. Definitely will go back for gol guppas. Friendly service and cute decor with dilli feel to it.

Dahi Puri Chat
Kelly S.

Live Pani Puri! Finally got to try Pani Puri! Prices are okay. You get 7 in each order. * We ordered: - Live Pani Puri: 5 different broths to try from. So good! There's some that are sweet, some that are spicy, and some that are a mix. - Dahi Puri Chat: filled with chickpeas, potato, soup, some other yummy stuff, & topped with a cherry I do prefer the normal Pani Puri Pros: - Food came out quickly - lots of seating & parking - open late! - Bollywood themed interior, ambiance is good

Chandni chowk is an indian street style chaat place open late with flavorful food and great decorations. There's plenty of parking and indoor seating. The food is authentic and the portions are great for the price. We ordered the aloo tikki chaat, honey chili potatoes and dahi puri for 4 people and it was very filling. The servers brought the food out quick. We also got an order of pani puri - it was 8 puris at the stand and there were 5 pani flavors to choose from. This is a great place to visit with your family when craving street food. I'd definitely come back!

FINALLY got to try and it did not disappoint. I'm not Indian, but all the other customers were, so…read moreI immediately knew it was gonna be good. WHAT AYCE Indian food from northern and southern India: chicken, fish, lamb, vegan, appetizers, desserts (plural!). Delicious! We tried stuff that we might never order in a regular Indian restaurant. COST $25 weekdays $28 weekends is VERY REASONABLE to me for a place that has no limit on what you can consume. We went on a Friday night, no time limit for us, but if they are super crowded I can see how they might put a time limit. FOOD 10/10 I wish I took a picture of the buffet line but I didn't want to be weird. There were so many choices, and several dessert items too, including soft serve ice cream, this place is a gem. Everything was awesome! They now have a breakfast buffet too, next time I'm back in the area I'd love to try that!

Accidental find, Benihana's apparently bellied up at some point. Voila new location for "Indian…read moreSizzler". Not many renovations as you enter half the old bar seating area is the area in which their buffet is displayed. Alot of display's of happy hour promotions, catering, pricing which none reflected on aspect of the business or the other (website). Friday afternoon is apparently considered a weekend buffet even though there are many business's around for a quick biz lunch. So we were charged the 'weekend buffet' pricing per person. Around $28. The buffet is on the massive side. Northern, Southern and probably a couple other regions of Indian food. It's rare I get a Indian buffet with so many options. Was happy sambar was available, medu vada, idli's. But also tried out some dishes never heard of. Upon seating we were brought both naan and dosa. Coconut and tamarind chutney was a nice surprise also. Chicken option and fish were done well. I can't remember exactly what recipe as tried a lil taste of many, but the point is they cook their meat and fish well with great flavor balance. There were a handful of goat options also. Never had a chickpea salad like they offered nor bitter gourd pickle! Loved that chickpea salad. As for the bitter gourd pickle, it was a good pickle recipe but if familiar with bitter gourd, it was 'unique'. Too full for dessert but it does exist. It's on the keeper list.

We didn't feel like cooking and I had passed this place a couple times on my way to Mission College…read more So we went online and placed a carryout order for veg and non-veg thalis. Strangely, although I had given my phone number, I never got a text message that my order was ready for pick up. However, they had estimated the time and so I left and arrived and they were just packing my order. They took the time to ask if I wanted the veggie dishes packed in a separate bag from the non-veg which I found to be very thoughtful. If you do choose to dine in, the space is simple and unprepossessing. There are some booths along the wall and tables in the room and a nice stencil of peacocks. If you care to do so, you can walk over to the counter and look into the kitchen I came home and found that all our food was hot to piping hot, still which is good. Oh! The karela was delicious. I have seen some people complain in their reviews that the non-veg thali did not have enough meat, particularly lamb. I was happy with the quantity of chicken and mutton in my order. We even had enough for leftovers for the following day. If you are a member of one of these frequent flyer dining programs, then you may find you also receive some additional points for your custom. I did!

Not worth the visit. Meager portions in play-set utensils…read more The service is humble and slow. The mango lassi was decent, rest all was just cooked spices. The vegetarian meal had no vegetables and the bones had barely any meat on them. We were group of 6, and none of us were satisfied from their meal and we each paid about $25 for our food. One guy received his meal after all 5 were done and believe us we all tried to wait for his meal. Not worth the time and money. I will never go back and wouldn't recommend anyone. The flavors might cater to some but not my kind of meal.

In $37, we got: - freshly squeezed orange juice - 5/5 - they are doing it live in front of your eyes - amazing! - pune chai - 5/5 - it already has the sugar added. It did remind of the chais i used to share with my daadima back in pune - masala vada pav - 3.5/5 - looked amazing but lacked flavor in the vada. Not bad but not the best i've had - amul pav bhaji - 4/5 - huge portion size and not too spicy. Kid friendly and no nuts makes it a desirable option for families The service was top notch and loved the clean premises. Clean restrooms too! Definitely coming back for more :)
