Chaat Paradise Indian Vegetarian

We ordered Bhel and Dabeli, but the portion sizes were quite small considering the price—$9 for a small serving of Dabeli feels excessive. Additionally, the food did not have much flavor.

Great place to come, but u must try to be here between normal hours when the good chefs are. Usually up to about 2 then again inside dinner after 430

This was my first order from this restaurant, and I also appreciated my previous experience. I ordered Aloo Tikki with Channa Chaat, but instead received Ravaa Vada with Chole. I also ordered Makki di Roti, but it was the toughest one I have ever had. However, the Kashmiri Dum Aloo was exceptional—truly on a different level, and I struggle to find words to describe it. I don’t usually write restaurant reviews, but I felt compelled to share my thoughts this time. I hope they take this feedback to heart and work on improving the quality and taste of their food.

I also wondered if we could cancel our Samosa order and substitute it with Bhel Puri instead. Was it made fresh for us? The taste certainly didn’t seem like it. To add to our surprise, we were asked to add sugar to our tea before it was served! They handed us a sugar pack in a to-go cup, which was quite bizarre. We’ve never had this experience at any restaurant in the Bay Area.

I am giving it 5 stars for its ambience and service. The food was pretty good too. Paani Poori came with 4 types of toppings and 2 types of chutney which was very exciting. Chaat Basket was a unique treat; puris shaped like small bowls and filled with yummy toppings. Idli Manchurian was alright and tasted as a Manchurian should. If you are a big fan of Idli then do try it. The prices are average too considering it?s in Mountain View.
