I’ve been living nearby for almost two years but never visited before. I finally went today on New Year’s Day, and I’m so glad I did. I don't know the name of that girl who was on counter , her customs service was excellent—very polite and welcoming. The chai was delicious with a perfect strong flavor. Maybe now this will become my daily spot! ☕😊

I really love their Bombay Sandwich. My go to place for quick chai on the go. Safiya at the counter makes the experience amazing every time I visit. She definitely deserves a raise.

We discovered this restaurant through a nearby Google search after dropping our son off at his soccer game. It was just a 15-minute walk, and absolutely worth the trip — the service was excellent. We had never tried Indian-style tea or coffee before, and our server, Safiya, was incredibly friendly and helpful. Noticing we were unfamiliar with the menu, she kindly offered us samples to help us decide. We tasted Karak Chai, Pink Chai, and Karak Coffee. My favorite was the Karak Chai — it had a rich aroma and bold flavor, and I especially appreciated the non-sweet version. In the end, we ordered the non-sweet Karak Chai and a Dirty Chai, which is a blend of coffee and Karak Chai. We also tried the Aloo Paratha, which was delicious — the potato filling had a nice spicy kick and paired perfectly with the roti. Highly recommend for anyone curious about Indian beverages or looking for warm, attentive service.
