The best chaat in the east coast! We drove two hours to have the samosa chaat, sev dhahi bhala, veggie samosas and gulaab Jamun. The flavors of the chaat were excellent and all ingredients mixed to perfection. The owner Hina is fabulous and goes above and beyond to make sure we are helped. We also appreciate the variety of chaats. Thanks Chaat House!
Love this place. I got the curry chicken with rice and it’s delicious!
very friendly guy. I went here 15 years ago and just recently and am still very happy with the food. The guy who works there is very sociable and nice and gave us some extra food to try including desert and it was just a very fun experience overall. the chaat here has always been crunch and flavorful and made quickly and right in front of your eyes.
Amazing service and even better food! The samosa chaat is killer and they have tons of vegan, gluten free, and nut free options. Small but beautifully decorated space and reasonable prices. It’s just the best!
SCRUMPTIOUS. Will definitely be returning. I called ahead for their lunch special (non veg which was chicken Tika and another chicken dish I'm blanking on with rice and....I want to say a flour tortilla but I guess it was labeled as Naan bread....) and The samosa chaat. From the first bite, my tastebuds fell in love. The flavors were electrical. Value out of this world. Would recommend 10/10. My wallet remained in tact and that's always a big plus in my book; I consider this spot a STEAL. Between you and me, I do wish I got more meats in the lunch special but that being said, I'll come back and pay proper full price for a big portion. Or just come back for the chaats.
The best chat in all of Philadelphia. The staff was very friendly and suggested that I put the yougart and sauces in a cup where I could mix at home since I was ordering take out. Great suggestion. I savored every bite and crunch. Thanks Sir. I will always stop in for take out whenever I visit Philadelphia, because it is a must have!!!
A true gem in neighborhood. Dahi baray, chana chat is mouthwatering. I have been going here for 10 years. Owner is very nice guy- always greets us smile
