Cha Street Food is a restaurant inside the Tyson's Corner Mall. There's free parking in the garage nearby. The ambiance inside the restaurant is eclectic and aesthetic. You can tell that the owners truly care about the quality of branding and presentation. I've been here before and had a positive experience both times. The food is great, the masala fries and falooda are must try's. The fries are crispy and seasoned well and the falooda is sweet, rose-y/pistachio-y, and balanced well with textures. This time we also tried the chaat papri bowl (small). The chick peas were seasoned well with the sauces and paired well with the crispy chaat. I just wasn't a fan of the tomatoes. Overall, everything was reasonably priced for the quality and portions. I'd recommend coming here if you're looking for a Indian street snack or dessert. read more

The Lacha Paratha Burger and the Tawa Chicken are great additions to the already delicious menu. However, just keep doing what you guys found the niche for Pakistani street food ~ but don't over expand the menu into something that isn't. Like the introduction of so many rice bowls is probably not part of the same food niche. read more

The paneer wrap was delicious and a generous size. The space is colorful and inviting.

Got the 12.99 cha combo deal to-go for lunch and it was worth it. I liked both the smashburger and zinger burger equally. Ample amount of fries. read more

Food was good I was enjoying it but unfortunately there was a staple in my food (my food was not in a bag) so not sure how that happened. I would give this 3-4 stars but the staple really scared me, could've been a very very bad experience. Due to food safety I have to give this place 1 star I would probably go back for the house made chai but I probably would not feel comfortable buying food from there again. read more

Omg I was so excited to try this place, but the experience was disappointing. They were clearly understaffed for the crowd--we waited over 40 minutes and still didn't have our food. I even had to ask to be acknowledged while others were helped before me, including people who ordered after us. As a content creator, I try to give grace, but this wasn't it. If you go, definitely order at least an hour ahead. Can't even begin to tell you about the food still waiting on it. read more

I love coming here for brunch on the weekends. The food is great, and is consistent. The vibes of this place give Pakistan street food, with a nice aroma the moment you come in. The staff is excellent and very friendly! I ran into the host taking orders at a Costco and she was so delighted to be recognized, you could tell she was genuinely surprised. I usually get the omelette and paratha while the family gets halwa puri. The omelet and paratha come with a fried home fries type of potatoes, which I always finish. The halwa puri is super fresh and not swimming in oil as would be expected. Try the iced Kashmiri chai, it's a hit! read more

I've tried their food from the food truck years ago and wasn't terribly impressed. However, I felt like I should give the actual location a try. I like that they offered burger, roll or bowl. We chose the hot zinger crispy chicken in burger form, they asked if we wanted cheddar cheese for an additional cost. We opted for that, but it looked more like the plastic American cheese. The sandwich flavors were good, but the chicken was too thick and small for the bun size and hard to bite into. We were curious to try the dubai chocolate samosa, but didn't want to try anything else. Upon entering the cafe, there was a strong smell (dirty towels?) that hit us. The tables were also not regularly cleaned when customers left them dirty. There is a small partially closed off section for private parties, which needs to be by-passed when going to the bathroom. They offer high tea for a reasonable price $40 for vegetarian and $45 for non-vegetarian, comparable to tea shops that have high tea. They serve desi snacks/desserts. Would I return? maybe if I have a craving.... read more

So this review is alit different then my other reviews. I am planning on updating this review once I go back to try the food but I came here for the Dubai Chocolate Somas that I saw on Tic Tok and ngl this really should not have worked but it was honestly pretty solid! But mannnn the decor and vibe really is the high light of the place. They did a really good job and found a unique identity that really sets them apart from other places. the service I can't comment on because I we didn't get food but the order taker was fine. Once I try the food I will update this but just from the vibe and dessert I have to give it a 5! read more

I have had mixed experiences at this location. The sit down experience wasnt bad, the zinger and smash burger combo is great. The fries and tenders are average. The roof was dripping water onto our table every few minutes. The to go experience was underwhelming. The food took forever to come out and it seemed like they were short staffed on this Saturday night. The sandwich was cold for some reason. It also tasted bland. Very inconsistent taste compared to my initial sit down experience read more

This place was delicious - would highly recommend and will be back to try more! Food: We got the combo meal which was a great value. It came with the Zinger Chicken Sandwich, Beef smash burger, fries and choice of soda. Everything was a 10/10! Fries were super crispy and the two burgers were amazing and flavorful. Ambiance: Spacious and inviting with plenty of seating and parking. Service: Very friendly and nice. Great customer service! read more

Came here for a quick bite after my son's cricket practice. First of all it's definitely not quick. Place was full but nobody in line, still had to wait a good 20 mins for the food. Food was average. Not that flavorful and over powering lemon flavor. We ordered the chicken tikka wrap and burger. It was dripping in sauce. Wish the pieces of meat were cut to a smaller size to make it easier to eat. I was expecting something similar to Kati Roll Co, but it's nowhere near the taste. Paratha was heavy and not flaky. Overall I thought it was mediocre and expensive. I was shocked to see lemonade for $8.50! read more

Last weekend we found this street food Pakastani owned and run (at least the Manager and chef) location and the food is great. Gets a 5 star. However the owner/manager ( I assume the young lady we spoke about hosting events) needs to ensure that when customers don't wipe their mess up as they clear their tables, that someone is periodically doing that or when asked by a customer, will do so. As opposed to customers having to get napkins, wet them and clean the table. If we have to do so why are you asking for a gratuity? Also since everyone comes at lunch for the halwa, and it runs out by 1 pm, how about managing the kitchen so there is a constant flow of the most favorite item for brunch? I hope the restaurant stays open as it does serve good food, just needs to pay attention to cleanliness and food quantity to be around for a long time. read more

This was the first time I've had Pakistani food! Just WOW. I had the warm samosas and my boss had their version of a smash burger! Both were hands down delicious. The restaurant is super cute too! I highly recommend if you're in the Herndon, VA area. read more

The food is steadily been going down since they opened and you can see it from the amount of people in the restaurant from when it started. It is mediocre at best. Nihari is $18 with no rice or naan which i think is Ludicrous. Definitely won't be coming back here as I have used to in the past. Time to move on to a different restaurant. read more

Interesting new place with Pakistani food. I had a samosa which was outstanding. Also had a spicy ground beef bowl which was ok but not very spicy or hot. Big portions. My wife had chicken tikka bowl which was really good. It's lovely inside but I do wish they did not serve evening in paper bowls and plastic forks. Throwing away so much stuff after each meal is not great. We can do better read more

Nothing fancy, but the food is pretty fresh. I got the chicken bowl and I was delightfully surprised at how fresh the vegetables were and how tasty the chicken was. My wife got the warm samosa chaat, which was also delicious. It's communal seating with great decor. You order at the register and they call you when the food is ready. Beware, if you get a chai, they only make it with whole milk, there are no other milk options. read more

Got the shammi wrap/roll and the chipoté style tortilla is amazing, with the avocado and seasoning. For $13 after tax I was left hungry, but it did taste well. The place was pretty empty though, but the aesthetic was decent. read more

Despite the negative reviews, I actually really like the food and space. My favorite item is the chick peas that is served with the tikka bowl. I will say that they are a little over priced for the portions as a fast casual place and there have been some inconsistencies with items in the past. read more

Came here for team lunch. I had the beef bowl and it tasted great. Service was fast for the amount of people that attended. They had reserved a space for us and everything. This made out whole experience worth it and convenient. read more

Great atmosphere and seating. The smoothies are awesome, and the drinks are very unique. The food is bland and not as flavorful as you'd expect. Avoid the American style items like burgers and fries and go for more authentic foreign flares, which will give you a better taste. read more

The chicken strips were undercooked, and when I brought this to the cashier's attention, she was exceedingly argumentative and discourteous. The seating area was excessively untidy, with lettuce and food on the floor; the tables were sticky, and we were compelled to clean them ourselves. Additionally, the new pratha with zinger chicken was not prepared correctly on Friday. read more

Food was good but I wouldn't recommend dining in. The interior is beautifully done and definitely a photo worthy spot but when we went there were 2-3 families with young children that literally ran around the restaurant, grabbing handfuls and playing with the communal straws, jumping from seat to seat - it wasn't a very relaxing place to enjoy the delicious food they serve. The tables/chairs were also a bit dirty so we had to wipe down before sitting. Good food, but get it to go. read more

Tried this place for the first time last weekend and it wasn't bad. We had the keema and chicken tikka wrap, samosa chaat, and came back for two of the fired chicken bowls, keema burger and falooda. The food was not as flavorful as i thought it would be. My favorite was probably the samosa chaat and falooda, but I wouldn't come back. Nice atmosphere though for a cup of tea. read more

Good service , Tikki bowl so good and the fries have a nice sweet taste to it. I'd recommend the white garlic sauce

This was a very nice place with authentic flavors. I give it 5 stars for the food and flavors. The mirchi fries were unique and tasty, the spicy zinger burger was delicious and the paprika chaat was very good. I always order this if I see it in the menu but it's usually not good so I had happy when this spot was similar to the authentic flavor. The decor was cute with plenty of seating. We ordered and were given a buzzer when the food was ready which took about 15 minutes. read more

I ordered for takeout and got the cha special with the zinger chicken and a smash burger (served with fries and a salaam cola). It was delicious and for an incredible value. I also loved that its halal! One thing i'll keep in mind for the burger though is to always go well done. Also, if your a fan of Karak Chai, this is a great spot for that! Iced or hot! Will definitely be going back for more. read more

Amazing place! Unique fusion food you must try it! The Paneer burger is amazing I have had it soo many times now! Love all the shakes, food is out of this world. Really can't understand how anyone could give this place less than 5 stars. Ambiance is nice and service is great too! Will be back for sure! read more

Tried a few times to check the menu. But consistently everything is SALTY. The spicyness aside, the salt is just too much, just makes it taste bitter. You all need to rework your "mayo" sauce, flavorful but salty and ruins the burgers / sandwhiches. Ambiance is great. read more

Cha Street Food - a tray of french fries, a bowl of coleslaw, and a bowl of salad - Indian Near Me - Sterling, Virginia

The place looks nice, and I like the design. The prices are a bit high but not extreme. I ordered the Hot Zinger Chicken Burger, which the server rated as 6 out of 10 on the heat scale, along with a Mango Milkshake and Spicy Mayo Fries. The food took about 10 minutes to prepare, which was great. For the Hot Zinger Chicken Burger, I'd rate it 7.2 out of 10. The buns were good, and the chicken was prepared in-house, which is a plus. However, it was slightly undercooked. The spice level was spot on, but there wasn't much else besides cheese and spicy mayo. The Spicy Mayo Fries were good, earning an 6 out of 10. They had great flavor, though I was disappointed that the jalapeños weren't fresh. The Mango Milkshake, unfortunately, didn't impress me much. I'd give it a 4 out of 10. Overall, the experience wasn't bad, and I might visit again. I'd rate the overall experience 5.4 out of 10. read more

Love it! Ambiance is the best part about this restaurant! Food is like amaze-ball! But they give buzzers so you know when your food is ready. Service was amazing. Overall, this place was amazing there's a video tells about, but the light design is so good. Also, also there's a whole bunch of other videos. read more

0 stars for food and 0 for customer service. We picked up samosa chat for iftari at 4pm and by the time we sat down to eat the samosas were smelling and the chaat had a sour taste to it because of most likely old chutney or something. When we called to complain about it the store manager implied that some how we are lying, and the immediate push back was "you bought it at 4 and ate at 7, so your fault" and "we have not heard any complaints about this yet". Simply acknowledging would have been enough but they want us to send an email with the details about our order and why we think the food went bad. Stay away from Sterling location until they get their process in order. See pics for proof :) read more

Prices are a little high. Got a regular samosa and a chicken tikka wrap. Both were hot, fresh, and tasty, however they were VERY greasy. Service was friendly and attentive.

First of all this is second time I ordered food for Cary out I'm so disappointed I ordered Paratha it was so hard that I couldn't even break it and it's was soooo hard like a rock I think they heat it up in the microwave Paratha size was very small compared to the price. Shami Kabab has no taste. They are very expensive though. Food portions are very small and no taste. Last time I ordered Chart it was soooo spicy that I had to throw it away couldn't eat at all. I'm not satisfied with the quality of food read more

Tried this place on a whim and it was delicious! We had the spicy mayo fries, chicken tikka roll and paneer roll. Everything was fresh and so good. We also ordered Mint lemonade and mango lemonade--both good, but we both preferred the mint--super fresh and not overly sweet. Can't wait to come back for high tea. read more

Yes. Four stars this time. I had the Hot Zinger Burger which is actually Chicken. Popeyes ain't got nothin' on this sandwich. Crunchy, juicy, and oh so delicious. Not TOO spicy. Just the right amount of heat. I added a slice of cheese which may or may not have been superfluous. Oh . . . It is a pretty messy sandwich. Just the way I like them! Paired it with loaded fries, a samosa, and Kashmiri Chai with extra nuts. Yes, it's the second time I've been here in a week. No, I am not ashamed. If you haven't had Pakistani street food, get here as soon as possible. You won't regret it. As before, ambiance is a hit kitschy, but fun. It's order and pick up at the counter, so not much to say about service. Bit the food speaks for itself. And the portions are large. read more
