As you enter, you have to wait for your turn at the counter to place your order, once you placed your order and paid, you’ll get a number which will be called out when your food is ready for pick up , so do not expect any service, we tried the dahi puri, pani puri, sev puri, papdi chaat and falooda, out of all this the pani puri was a flop, the papdi chaat didn’t have any potato, but had something similar to smashed idli in it, falooda was ok.

Bollywood themed Indian snacking place on Elden street. You will find plenty of parking outside and the place is also friendly for wheelchair or stroller entrance. The staff is very friendly and they serve you with smile. They are kids friendly too. They have self service where they call your bill token number and you have to collect your food from counter. The whole place has a 90s Bollywood theme. Every table top is laminated with 90s Bollywood movie posters. You will find more of the North Indian snacks here. We tried masala chai which was tasty full of cardamom taste with bread pakoda. The bread pakoda looked like they have refried it but it tasted as exactly as Indian food stalls sell. We also tried their dabheli but can feel it was so so not that tasty. It only has masala potatoes in it no crunch. The chutney’s server was also so watery. So would not suggest to try their dabheli but you can try other things. There chole bhature looks amazing so probably we will try it next time. They have small juice center too inside. You can get fresh fruit juices here and tasty tasty falooda also and if you are bored go try their game room. Check it out soon

We have gone multiple times to Chaatwala since it opened last year and the food and service has been consistently of a very high quality. Jai always makes it feel like we are visiting the home of a friend, who is an excellent chef.I am originally from Bombay, so all of the chaat served in this restaurant is soul food for me and reminds me of home. The pani puri is to die for.Vegetarian options: All vegetarian menuParking: Free lotKid-friendliness: Very kid friendly

Great food! Friendly staff! I travel all over and try to explore veg food this is one of the best Indian street food place hands down! The atmosphere is casual yet welcoming with board games and ping pong to stay busy with while the food is getting ready! I'd recommend to anyone looking for great street food with AUTHENTIC Indian taste!Vegetarian options: Great all veg options! My personal favorite is Chole Bhature (Indian Spicy) and All chaat items!Parking: Plenty of parking on side building

A fast food cafeteria style southern Indian restaurant with paper plates and plastic utensils. I can not recommend it as it wasn't my taste.
