Basically, there was nowhere to sit. The reviews are always great but when you walk in there it was basically like a gas station which is actually is. Samosas were cold and food was mediocre

Authentic Punjabi food, we have tried their butter chicken, kulche, paneer pakora, veggie burger, and shahi paneer. Paneer pakora takes you back in Punjab! Shahi paneer reminds you of paneer served in weddings in Punjab. This veggie butter chicken is one of the best dishes!!!

I never write negative comments usually. But my experience was made me to write here. Service was ok. Last time order food was spoiled, smells terrible and tastes even worse. If you complain, even she replies with rude words and insults you.I will not suggest this place.

I went there with the online order stating it is ready @ 12 to know that the owner and the chef are not going to be there till 12:15 to start making the order. The food including Pani Puri wasn't great but was okay. I would definitely recommend Chaatwala over this place.

Excellent pani puri and when available superb bread pakoda. Place can definitely be cleaner and also a little more hygienic food handling (gloves) would be great

Look... I'm not going to lie. Maybe I'm into "Americanized" Indian Food but the food is unappetizing to say the least. The wait time for the food was over 30 min just for Butter Chicken, Palek Paneer and Samosas. I'd avoid this place if you want tasty Indian Food. If you want "authentic" food that'll give you a stomach ache, go for it!

Great place to have delicious panipuri! The owner and the staff are friendly and provide excellent service.

Finally a place in DMV area that gives authentic Delhi food. We had the Pani Puri, Delhi style Matar kulcha and Aloo Parathas and everything reminded me of India. The owner is from New Delhi and she prepares all the food herself. Must try if you are looking for some authentic Indian flavors.

I honestly didn't have high expectations, as I knew the puchka would tasted nothing like what I have had in India a million times, but somehow it even beat my lowest expectations. I have had some pretty bad puchka in the US, because most restaurants don't cater to chaat, but have some chaat items on the menu and that usually satisfies the craving..but for a place that caters to chaat..the experience was pretty dismal. How does a place that caters to chaat cut corners and use hashbrown potatoes for the filling?? The paani still has left a bad taste in my mouth..tasted like a premade concoction with some spices thrown in. Not going back.

I was blown away by the pani puri! The ambience is a bit weird because it's part of a grocery store but management has done its best to make the restaurant portion colorful and festive. The pani puri was absolutely delicious and I loved the experience of eating it at the little stall.
We went for golguppa. While the food wasn’t as bad but I have to say the manager an elderly Indian Lady refused to let me taste the potato filling. Being from india we require to taste the potato filling to know if it’s what we want. And FYI I make better golguppa! Don’t call yourself a chaat place if you don’t let people enjoy the essence of it!

Aunty makes the best food. Paani puri and chilly paneer amazing

Great quality and service, Butter Chicken and Manchurian are one of the best dishes. The paneer tikka wrap, palak paneer and paneer pakora are one of the best in town. Authentic Punjabi Flavors!! Can never go wrong with this place!!

We ordered Aloo Paratha, Chole Bhatura and Vada Pav and all the dishes were delicious. The owner was humble and offered us to try Pani Puri which was one of the best in the DMV area :)

This place is incredible! Popped in here one day because the chipotle next door was full, and I have never switched back since! Really amazing and authentic Indian street food. The wraps are phenomenal and the owners are the newest people.
