Taj E Chaat - Burgoon

Consistently great tasting food that tastes fresh and flavourful!

Most meat ive ever gotten in a takeout bowl! Generous Naan portions too.

I was craving Indian food for lunch today, and found this place in central Fremont. I called in advance, and the restaurant seemed busy, but the gentleman was really polite and asked me to hold. He came back and took my order and told me that the order would be ready in about 20 25 minutes. I showed up a little early, and saw that they were preparing the order. The same gentleman offered to bring the order out to me when it was ready but that was not necessary. It was the gesture that counts. I paid for the order, and waited a bit longer and took the order home. The first things to note is that the order was so well packed, complete with saran wrap in case of any spills (there were none). I opened up the butter chicken, the aloo gobi, the garlic naan and rice... and began eating. The food was simply amazing. The chicken was tender, the garlic naan flavorful, the aloo gobi had a nice kick to it and paired with rice. It was perfect. When I left the chefs waved and said thank you. Who takes their time to do that these days? They do, and it just make the restaurant even more welcoming. I look forward to coming back again. Thank you again.

The service is fast and they have a few tables to eat. It is more of a hole in the wall place than fine dining. The food, however, was not flavorful. I read other reviews that said it was mild spicy, I expected not chilly pepper hot, but full of other flavors. We ordered Bhel Puri and Chana Bhatura. Both were well made, but very low on flavor of any kind. Even the salt was a little on the low side. They were also low on oil, so at least that was good. They provided very generous portion of bhel puri. However, the Chana Bhatura came with too little Chana. We asked for refills and got charged extra for that. The other problem was that they keep their front door open all the time. On a cold night, it was uncomfortable sitting there, but they said they couldn't close the door as they were cooking in the back. Overall, it might be a good choice to order take out or delivery when you are sick or recovering from sickness and want simple well cooked food with low oil and low spices.

Found huge cockroach in my order of Chhole Bhature. Place seems so unhygienic, never visiting again!
