Chawla's Cafe

Lots of options, all vegetarian. The tikka masala flavor was great! I was surprised by the garlic cilantro naan. The texture and how light and crispy the bread was and not too oily was a pleasant surprise. The rice was also a light long grained white rice 🍚 Newer restaurant so slower to serve food, at least for dinner

New kid on the block. And let me tell you an amazing one. Their curries are some of the best in the Seattle area. The Paneer dil bhar and Malai kofta were delicious. Their paneer is so soft which is a rarity at most places. Also worth trying is their amritsari kulcha and chana. Their naans are perfectly crisped. You can avoid their aloo paratha though. The prices are bit on the higher side but but they have complimentary masala tea and that compensates for everything. The service is quick. The ambience is relevant as it is a quick eat n go place. A must try for everyone who is a fan of Indian food. The only downside is they are a 100% vegetarian restaurant and I hope they start serving meat somewhere in the future

I visited Chawla’s Cafe and tried a few dishes. The chole bhature stood out with fluffy and soft bhature, but the chole itself was quite average, similar to what you’d make at home. The achari soya chaap was disappointing—lacking the achari flavor and not spicy or flavorful as recommended by the lady at the counter. The garlic butter naan was okay but became hard to chew once it cooled down. The smoky paneer tikka masala also missed the mark, as it didn’t have the smoky flavor the name promised, though it came with rice. Additionally, the service was slow, which added to the overall experience. The One and only thing which stood out was the green chutney they serve with chaap it was super flavourful.

We had Paneer Stuffed Kathi Roll and Achari Soya Chaap. The quality of both was really great. Being from Delhi, I used to miss having Soya Chaap a lot. But here the taste of Chaap was exactly the same as Delhi's chaap. The quantity was also good. They gave complementary fries with Kathi Roll. The quantity was so much that we couldn't finish whole food and had to take to-go. I would highly recommend this place 💯

Delicious, Chawla's is one of the best options for Indian food in Bellevue. Everything on the menu is good. Bahut achaa Khana.

Oh so yummy. Everything I ordered was fresh, tasty and hot. The spices and oil was just perfect. The staff is very polite. It has cafe kind of vibe with excellent food so if you are looking for a luxury kind of vibe, this is not the place. Also they take longer to cook, which was fine with me if the food was delicious. So if you are in a hurry this is not a place for you. Authentic vegetarian Indian food.

Best Indian food with a lot of vegetarian variety. I ordered their mushroom masala with garlic nan it was just yummm😋.I will definitely come next time with my family and friends. By their interior it was just average I think food is also average but when I ate the first bite it was just like I was eating in a 5 star indian hotel . Highly highly recommended. 👍

Barely edible. Instead of leftovers im thinking garbage disposal. I predict another restaurant takes over the spot on the corner in @ 18-24months

delicious food... naan was so fresh and hot just from oven. Service is good. Served very fast.

Such good food. Small establishment and everything is cooked to order. We ate it so fast there are no pictures. We're bookmarking this place for when we're in the area.

Ambience. B Service. A Food. A Price. A Found downtown Bellevue off main road. Lots of private parking space. Use to be the Racha Noodles / Jack in Box bldg. NOW it's Indian Cuisine. The lighting is very fluorescent bright and have Indian television and music playing. Must be very authentic as majority clientele and staff and cooks are Indian descent. Order at counter and grab a seat. They'll bring out to you. Cashier was friendly and helpful understanding menu. Make sure to double check the order before paying. You might get more than what you order. Everything is vegetarian. NO meat or TOFU. Ordered the Pannear Chili. Cooked to order. Very flavorful and nice spicy sauce with paneer and veggies and basmati rice beautifully fluffy. Also, has serve your complimentary hot Chai and water. Served in recyclable or take out containers. And plastic ware for utensils. I would eat here again. Delicious. I just wish they had more pictures of FOOD! I'm a FaN!

The disappointing thing is they have limited items available after 12. So pretty much it's just naans and rice and curries for dinner. If they want to consider maintaining business, they should have more options such as the parathas available in the evenings. Nothing impressive with the curries either. Will consider some changes if they want to sustain and maintain business.

We walked into this place as this place is new.The restaurant has its own parking in an area where parking is scarce. We ordered Paneer Hariyali Tikka and Dahi Batata Sev Puri. The Dahi Batata Sev Puri came first and was flavorful and had a good amount of filling in the puri. The Paneer Hariyali tikka was crispy in the outer layer and soft in the inside. They also had hot complimentary chai. The staff were extremely kind and friendly. Definitely want to swing by again and try more.

Newly opened restaurant. The food was very authentic Punjabi or North Indian food. They also serve Indo-Chinese and South Indian but we only ordered North Indian food. Will try the other cuisines next time. Service was great. Friendly and attentive staff.
