wow i am yearning for the day i can come back and try more from this menu! this place is always booked and busy so my brother and i made a visit first thing they opened for lunch. our server was amazing and his recommendation for the kale pakora chaat for an app and the bhapa doi for dessert were 10/10. a party of 2 is not enough people to fully explore the menu. we were so stuffed after sharing an app, 2 entrees, and a dessert. i am so excited to come back. it’s so cute...read full review

We had the Tamarind cola, Masala coke, Pav Bhaji and Bihari kebab at Chai Pani in Union Market. Everything was amazing. The Pav Bhaji was one of the best I’ve ever had. The Bihari Kebab was delicious, but it was not quite Bihari enough for me. The ambience and service were both excellent.

Chai Pani DC is a vibrant and lively restaurant that offers a taste of authentic Indian cuisine in a beautiful and intentionally designed space. The decor is vibrant, and the atmosphere is pleasant, with a slightly loud but fun vibe, making it a great spot for drinks and bites. The menu features a nice variety of different items to share, with the butter chicken being a standout dish. While some of the hot dishes could have been served piping hot, the overall quality of the food is praised, and the restaurant is seen as a wonderful addition to the DC dining scene, especially for those looking for a fun and cultural dining experience.
