Chaai and Chaatwala Reviews
Incredible and authentic chaat! My husband was born and raised in India and we have always said that we wished there was somewhere in Pittsburgh that just sold chaat and snack items. We were blown away by the pani puri and the Bombay sev sandwich. The restaurant gives you a proper Indian dhaba feel. Will definitely be back and will recommend to our friends!
I recently visit this place. I tried there sandwiches, smosa chaat, dahi puri, masala tea and fresh juice was flavorful delicious. This was my best experience in this restaurant. The staff is also too good and there nature is so friendly.
