If you've never had a thali, Pastries N Chaat is a great place to try one! They offer both vegetarian and non-vegetarian options, and it's honestly one of the best values around. Each tray comes loaded with a variety of curries, rice, bread, and sides so you get to taste a little bit of everything instead of committing to just one dish. It's the perfect sampler and a great way to explore different flavors in one meal. I also love their samosa chaat. It's messy in the best way possible, with crispy samosas, chutneys, yogurt, and crunchy toppings that bring all the textures together. Super flavorful and satisfying. The setup is casual and easy: you order at the counter, grab a table, and they bring the food out. The restaurant itself is clean and relaxed. Great option for dine in or takeout. read more

The pizza was OK. It was my first time there. I would recommend cutting the paneer into smaller pieces. The pizza did not have much flavor, TBH. I also had a side of samosas with tamarind sauce on the side. The tamarin sauce was very thick, almost like a jelly. I had never seen it like that before. I took a slice of dil khush to go. My first time trying it. Pretty good! read more

Highly recommend the thali and the Gobi 65 and the puri. The puri were fresh and not stale. The Samosa chat not so much. It was all tough bread, no potato in the Samosa and it was very hard. Even the toppings didn't soften it. This trip didn't have any jeera cookies, which are my favorites. And they do not have ice for the drinks. Your order at the counter and they have a flag and deliver the food to your table. They previously used to have a tablet that you can pick and choose your items. Huge deli case of pastries, highly recommend the pastries. read more

This is my go to Indian restaurant when I venture out by myself. It feels more like a cafe style with a chill vibe. I have not ordered one thing that I didn't enjoy. From the snacks, meals and sweets The service is on point. Since I came back from India I like to chit chat and know where each person is from and what they recommend eating... they are patient and answer all my questions. The last few times I went I saw the thali on display, they have a vegetarian and I believe a chicken one. I still have not ordered it... it looks delicious! Mainly I always get the pani puri and I honestly believe they make the most authentic one in town! read more

My good friend recommended this place. She's an Uber eats Driver and people order from here a lot.. I had to ask a lot of questions concerning the Pizza and I ended up with their tofu version! And that was delicious and they even will modify the spice if you prefer! I will definitely be coming back here! read more

EVERYTHING WAS GREAT. The food was soooooooooooooo delicious!!! Pritti was sweet and , also super helpful with recommendations and Zack was amazing with his service as well. We didnt get much but next time we come we going to bring friends. My suggestion is for you to do the same ; Nicki was polite and quick with running dishes, youve got to try the Gunter Goat Biryani. Its absolutely worth it! Sorry shouldve took pictures! read more

This place is one of my go to Indian restaurants ever since it opened a couple of years ago. The food is always hot, fresh, and on point. The service is always great with a chill ambiance. And the pricing is always great. Recently we got the chicken 65, samosa chaat, and the chicken kati roll. All were delicious. Another time, we also tried the chicken noodles which were really good! read more

I am addicted to the chai and chai means tea so it's not chai tea. It's just chai, Masala chai, it's very good. I love it. I get it sugar-free it's made with black tea and it keeps me going all day and I sleep nice and hard at night, I highly recommend it. read more

Would recommend and come back! Ordered the butter chicken and samosa chaat, and these were full of flavor and nicely balanced. However, this is from someone who greatly enjoys Indian cuisine and not familiar with authenticity. That said, the majority of customers were Southern Asians (it was absolutely packed on a Saturday evening) and that's always a great sign. We did have to wait 30mins for our dine-in food (were told 10mins when ordering), but this was possibly due to the large number of takeouts. Ordering: at contactless screen or through the cashier. Food: brought to the tables, however extra paper plates, utensils and drinks are all self serve. Parking: limited, since it is shared with multiple businesses, and tight so beware of poor drivers who don't know how to park well! I recommend traveling a little farther to the parking lot in front of the K-BBQ place. read more

I just LOVE this place! I have had their Chicken Tikka Masala in the past & it is sooo delicious! But my 3 favorite things on the menu are the Samosa Chat, Mango Lassi & their Coconut Ball Cookies. I ate everything too quickly to get pics But, let me tell you... the Samosa Chat is so delicious! With smashed lentils, seasoned to perfection, with a spice level of your choice. It has fresh yoghurt, red onions, and cilantro on top as well as crispy Samosa pastry. A perfect snack for some, but for me it's two filling meals that is just as good leftover cold as it is fresh & warm. And...it's only $5.00!! The mango lassi is fresh, tangy, & sweet & hits the spot. Lastly, the coconut balls - I mean...they're addictive. Light, chewy, just enough sweetness, YUM!! One of these days I'll bring them home & melt some chocolate to dip them in. But, not today. You have to try this place. It's just a little spot tucked away off Huebner in a little strip mall. Always service with a smile read more

Food and service were decent. We had the vegetable puff, which was a bit dry. No sauce provided for dipping. We also tried the chicken tikka which was good. My biggest complaint was the electric menu which is big and filled with helpful pictures, but also rotates through the options so quickly it gave me a headache trying to read. Having some physical menus available to peruse while waiting in line would be helpful. read more

Do yourself a favor and get food from here. If there's one thing you do today, let it be this. This is some of the BEST Indian food in San Antonio, the state of Texas, and probably the entire South. If you like butter chicken, get it from here. The meat was so unbelievably soft and tender, and the shorba was SO flavorful and had the perfect amount of spice. The rice is stupid soft and went perfectly with everything. I'm a biggg samosa chaat girlie and yall- this was IT. The meat we got was also super flavorful and not dry at ALL. Seating can be hard to get since everyone and their moms eat here (which is a sign in of itself of the quality), so getting it to go is the move. Eat here. Immediately. read more

New HALAL restaurant in town! Pastries N Chaat is an Indian Halal restaurant with many locations, the most recent of which opened in town! This place quite literally opened up maybe 2 weeks ago, and I'm so happy that they did! They have a wide variety to choose from & even offer combos to make things easier for you. According to my dad, their Chaat dishes are good too! For those who don't know, chaat are South Asian snacks, usually savory, which is what this place is known for (hence the name)! We got the Paneer Tikka Masala combo (comes w roti, rice and raita), Butter Chicken, Chili Gobi,Vijayawada Chicken Dum Biryani, & Bhel Puri. We loved everything that we got. A few notes however: -be sure to check spice levels when ordering! I'm used to eating spicy food but the chicken app on top of the Biryani was a bit too spicy for me. I'll probs just get regular chicken Dum Biryani next time! -Roti is BOMB! I usually don't have much to say about Rotis in general, but this one was a dream. Def recommend ordering some roti with your meal or getting the combo! -we went on one of the first opening days and they were a bit busy. They had a hard time completing our order over call, so it might be best to just go there and order. - Staff is extremely friendly!! They helped me out with recommendations & when it was time to come back in & pick up the food, they brought it out to my car instead! - speaking of which, even though they had more customers than planned for their soft opening, I still got my order in 20 mins! Thanks Pastries N Chaat for the hospitality and delicious food. I'll be back! read more

The husband and I are obsessed with Indian food but needing it to be delivered and to have the flavor we're looking for seemed to be a tall order. Not with Pastries N Chaat! So grateful for a place that offers up classic dishes and doesn't skimp on the spices and flavor. We ordered delivery tonight through Grubhub and it didn't disappoint! Butter Chicken combo with roti and curry only Lamb Kheema was our order and we couldn't believe the flavor! So pleased with our order and can't wait to order more! This has become our favorite go-to delivery for Indian food in SA!! read more

Great food, great people behind the counter! I highly recommend this place. If you are new to Indian food, look for items that say "great for children." Or grab a veg or non-veg Thali and try everything. read more

Their boneless chicken biryani is game changing! I loved the taste, felt like there is a secret ingredient, or maybe not! Big portion and tasty gravy/raita. I'm knocking off a star because the rice was greasy. I also ordered Dahi batata puri which was yummy as well. PnC will probably be my to go spot for biryani from now on.. read more

Wait a place where I can get fast Indian food AND cake??? Yes!! Everything I tried was delicious, some kind of spicy cauliflower, a veggie biryani with lentils, and did I mention cake? All different flavors available with layers of cream. The menu has something for everyone: meat dishes with chicken or goat, all the way to strict vegetarian dishes. They have the toast tab app so easy to order prior to arrival. Hours are a little different they close in between lunch and dinner. I also saw really affordable family packs on the menu around $50 for large portions of food for a party or office meeting. Very welcome addition to the medical center area. Don't miss this one. read more

This place is delicious! I ordered online and picked up in store. The whole process was very efficient. I ordered the chicken tikka masala, biryani rice and paratha.

I highly recommend trying out the restaurant! read more

I was really disappointed with my visit to Pastries N Chaat. I ordered from UberEats, planning to pick up and go hang out at a friend's house. The app said my order would be ready by 6:15. I arrived at PnC at 6:00pm and let them know I was there. I sat down in their spacious dining area and couldn't help but notice how messy the place was. The trash was overflowing (a guy later came out and pressed it down with his hands instead of changing the bag), and the floors beneath the tables were littered with food scraps. Looking at the menus hanging from the wall, you can order family-size combos of their entrees. It looks like a pretty good deal for a family looking to enjoy Indian cuisine. They also have a nice offering of layered cakes, though the display case they were in was pretty scary. After 15 minutes of waiting, the woman working the counter came to tell me that my chicken dum (bone-in chicken) biryani would take another 20-25 minutes if they started making it now, but that the boneless would only take 10 minutes. I opted for the boneless biryani and called my friend to tell them I would be really late. What annoyed me was that as I was sitting there waiting, the notification on my UberEats order said my order was ready for pickup. Hardly. I had been here for now 20 minutes already, and they hadn't even started my entrees. Just something to be mindful of if you plan to order on an app. It took another 30 minutes to get my food. I texted the friend to tell her I'd see her another time. The chicken biryani that I waited for had 5 pieces of chicken in it and an obscene amount of rice to cover up the fact that I had a thigh and a half of meat. The flavor itself was mildly spicy, but nothing that blew me away. Tarka (the Indian Chipotle) has better biryani, which made me sad to think. The raita that comes with the meal looked curdled. It was unlike anything I'd ever seen before with raita. It tasted that way, too. Though previous reviews had me excited to try the roti, I found it was way too oily, dense, and cold for me to enjoy it. The mango lassi I ordered tasted good, but it was tepid and not cold as it should be. It also seemed to be watered down, but the flavor didn't reflect that. The shrimp 65- shrimp in a spicy red sauce- wasn't cooked through. Undercooked shrimp has an almost gummy texture and this was barely reaching that point. I stopped eating it immediately. At this point in my meal, the place was packed with families. I waited to get someone's attention to tell them about my issues. Still, there really wasn't a point in waiting any longer because it was a busy Friday night. I think I visited on a bad day, but I don't know that I'll return between the lack of cleanliness, the lengthy wait, and the underwhelming food. read more

This place is pretty good for what it is. Quick, fast casual Indian restaurant. Pav bhaji was great, not spicy, not bland. The bread was nice and soft. The samosa chat could've used more yogurt and chutney. The ras malai cake was good overall but I could barely taste that it's ras malai. The veg puff was good! Super crispy. The mango lassi was also good, not too sweet and not too sour read more

Very flavorful and yummy food-- we enjoyed the chicken tikka masala and butter chicken. The mango lassi was thick and refreshing. The biryani rice was my favorite part! I favored the mango cake over all of the pastries I bought (gulab jamun was good too!) Overall and very nice and friendly place with courteous servers. There was a hand washing station near the dining area so you can wash your hands without going into the restroom. The utensils and plates were also disposable and there was a water dispenser for the customers to use. read more

I was driving in Med Center area and was actually looking for a bakery to cure my sweet tooth. The other bakery in the same plaza was not open so I peered around the corner and found Pastries N Chaat. I've had Indian desserts before but had not known they made pastries. As soon as I stepped inside, I saw many Indian nationals and knew this was seriously authentic. The cakes were beautifully decorated and just calling out to me then I saw the plethora of Indian foods from the puff pastries in front of me to the extensive menu selections available. I had never had Indian pizza before and was intrigued briefly since it was Pi Day today. I got the mango cake, double chocolate cake, rasmalai cake made of cottage cheese, and eggless black forest cake. I gave away the mango and double chocolate cakes so I didn't get to taste those but I had a bite of rasmalai and eggless black forest cake. Both are light and delicious. I didn't miss the eggs! I ordered 1 vegetarian puff and 1 chicken puff. The vegetarian puff was very flavorful like a samosa and didn't need the sauces. My husband had the chicken puff with the tamarind and green spicy sauce and like them. Even though dinner was waiting at home, I had to get the chicken tikka masala with the rice and roti. It's been a while since I've had this. We've been to Indian food buffets which are ok. My former manager in Manila was from India and his wife cooked authentic Indian food so I've had the best of the best. I was pretty full from drinking the mango lassi that I could only eat a couple of bites of the chicken tikka masala. Such great flavor! Looking forward to eating the leftover tomorrow! Definitely tastes homemade! Prices are extremely reasonable. They have been open only a few months. It surprised me to realize that this is a chain in Arizona, Florida, North Carolina and Texas. San Antonio is its only location so far. Bummed that they do not have outdoor seating but we'll surely be back. read more

This place is really clean, you can tell they take pride in their shop. I ordered mango lassi, rasmalai cake and papdi chaat from them. I'm from Houston, a huge food hub especially with Pakistani and Indian cuisine. Their lassi was out of this world, you can taste the kick of elaichi/green cardamom and the freshness of the mango. The cake is moist and definitely tastes like rasmalai. It's pretty impressive. There was no artificial taste coming through. The chaat was some solid chaat too. Each chutney was fresh, you could taste the layers of thought in each bite. The cholay (chickpeas), chutneys, and the papdi. Looking forward to order some of the classics next time. read more

Ordered food for delivery & I am a super happy customer. We had the: - dahi paapdi chaat 10/10 - chicken tikka masala 10/10 - gulab jamun 7/10 - paratha 9/10 - masala egg puff 10/10 Everything arrived still crisp and fresh! It's so difficult for me to vibe with paapdi chaats in TX, many in Dallas have disappointed. My favorite one is all the way in Alexandria, Maryland but I was really craving for some in SATX. Super yummy! I reckon a close tie to my fav. The curry was balanced and beautifully rich/creamy. Super deep in flavor and color. This is truly one of the most memorable Indian foods we've gotten. Hoping to try new items next time! read more

Finally! Casual Indian street food in San Antonio! This place is amazing. Just from the menu I was so excited to go and I was not let down! Each item I tried was flavorful and exactly as I imagined. The menu equally caters to vegetarians and omnivores, with vegans in mind as well. Prices are extremely reasonable and portion is very good. The service there is friendly and the cashier even came over to make sure I got my entire order. Mild and medium are very good spice levels. Even with most of the food being mild the spice was perfect. The restaurant was not too busy at lunch but got full. They do delivery, curbside, and contact-less ordering. They have yummy pastries and cakes(including eggless!) I didn't get to try the fusion pizza this time but I will be back very soon to do so! read more

Desperately needed food after all the snow this week, and this restaurant was a great choice! Ordered 3 items over the phone and it was ready in ~20-25 minutes. I tried the paneer Tikka pizza, chicken biryani, chicken 65, and also a vegetable pastry they had at the front counter. It was all soooo good! Total was around $37-38 for all the food after tax I think. Everything had a great flavor, and the vegetable pastry was flaky and delicious! I also saw that they had dessert (mango cakes, etc) at the front that looked really good, but I did not try any this time. Love having a new Indian option in San Antonio! read more

The food didn't taste that bad. Some of it was flavorful, some of it was not. I was a bit disappointed though especially with the chicken tikka pizza. The picture that the restaurant shows looked completely different than what we actually got. The cheese was very burnt and there wasn't much chicken on it. There was also not enough sauce. It didn't really taste like chicken tikka nor look like it either. I would not recommend the pizza. read more

Ordered the Andhra Chicken curry combo that comes with a portion of flavored rice, the curry, roti and raita. I Put in the special instruction to make it spicy. If you are a spice lover like me this combo is definitely what you want to order. Although the essence of whole spices in the curry could have been a bit more subtle, overall the taste was good. The curry will surely tickle your taste buds with its spice but the mildly flavored rice and the raita reduces the heat. The packaging of the delivery was good as well. Overall, a very good experience and would eat here again! read more
