chaat house

was at seattle for a day trip and we got to thisplacewhy else? we had a pucca vegetarian with us.

the cuisine is north indian and so was the thali. the butter paneer was very tasty. all in all a very good experience.

this is a greatplacefor indian chat snacks and indian food. the quantity is huge. parathas are of diameter of more than a 1 feet. one person may not be able to finish one whole paratha unless they were hungry for the last 2 days. parking area is good and surroundings are beautiful.

service is so rude and unprofessional they need to just close down i do not recommend thisplacego anywhere else but not here

i tried thisplaceduring lunch time and i must say that this is bestplacein bellevue for indian food . taste is great , price is nominal , and quantity is also good .
recommended for people who looking for pure indian taste .
love the parantha thalli 😊

i think the ratings here do not reflect what chat house has to offer and specially to us .. who live far away .. in aplacedeprived of indian street food :)
so, it was a trip like we always do in a few months .. of roaming around here and there exploring a city and some time dedicated to indian groceries shopping ..
surprisingly, we made 2 trips to the market complex in 2 days, to the grocery store adjacent to chat house.. and both the times we dined here ..

the first time .. a lot of things .. the second a few .. but got a few things parcelled for our friends in spokane and a few sweets as well.

here is how -

samosa - loved them, i like to compare apples to apples, thus wouldn't like my comparison to move to india and how great samosas are there and what not .. they were lovely in their capacity and presented as well.

mango lassi - lassi is a sweetened yogurt drink in india, mango flavour and it is mango lassi .. well it was nice as well :)

the gobhi parantha - must confess, i was impressed by the sheer size of it .. and then when it tasted quite good.. i became mighty impressed by the might of it .. :d

the noodles (veg) - not as good as we had in portland at a lump sum similarplacebut yeah not bad either.

chole bhature - chole = chickpeas .. bhature = (health conscious please do not read) - deep fried bread of sorts .. had a bite and the chole were very good .. bhature just alright.

the other thing which was so good was the besan laddoo (gram flour sweet),  loves them and did she sing praises every time she had a bite .. couldn't be more pleased with that :)
no qualms about the service and all .. given how crowded it was ..

all in all, we loved every bit of our time here and every bite of the food from here .. 4.5 stars nothing less

i have been to chaat house about 5-6 times in the since they opened. definitely a refreshing addition for having some good north indian chaat option in bellevue. 
this is a vegetarian restaurant, and the best part is their menu - which is a mix of regular chaat items and some filling items like the parathas and thaalis. so depending on how hungry you are , there are options to pick up. pav baaji has been so far best compared to the other chaat options we have in bellevue area. they also provide sugar cane juice, wow this is the onlyplacein bellevue i have to go for getting sugar cane juice. yet another sweet shop for buying indian sweets and savories. 
if you are visiting here in the evening at a peak time like 7-8 pm expect some wait time, as it gets  packed with lot of people.  
they have made a very refreshing ambiance with bright lights and colors with pretty active service, to ensure faster service time even when it is packed.  overall aplaceto visit again when my taste buds crave for some chat.
