“Best chole bhature I've had outside of Delhi. The recipe is clearly something special — you can taste the difference. Late hours are a lifesaver after a long work night.”

OUR STORY
FromGajraulatotheBay
Our grandfather perfected his chole bhature in Gajraula, a small town in Uttar Pradesh. The recipe — 28 spices, slow-cooked overnight — was never written down. It lived in his hands.
Cousins Avi Bains and Ranjeet Singh brought that recipe to Mountain View in February 2025. Every bowl of chole bhature served here is that same recipe, made the same way.
“The tandoor never sleeps. Neither do we.”
THE SECRET IS NO SECRET
28 Spices. One Recipe.
Grandfather's chole masala from Gajraula — same method, same spices. We won't share the quantities. “The recipe was never written down. It lived in his hands.”

Chole Bhature

“Seekh kebab at 1 AM hits different. Mountain View desperately needed this. The tandoor gives everything a smokiness you just can't replicate.”

“As someone with gluten intolerance, finding a North Indian place where ALL gravies are gluten-free is incredible. Finally can eat dal makhani without worry!”
Ananya R.3 weeks ago
“The NASA discount is a great touch — shows they know their community. Food is authentic, portions generous, and the garlic naan fresh from the tandoor is unreal.”

“Student meal plan is the best deal in Mountain View. Two meals a day, proper homestyle food, delivered. This is exactly what students here needed.”

“Solid North Indian food open past midnight in downtown MV. The soya chaap is surprisingly good — marinated well, great char from the tandoor. Will be back.”

“Replaced Bay Biryanis and honestly upgraded the spot entirely. The chole gravy has so much depth — you can tell it's a recipe that's been perfected over generations.”
R.K.Feb 2025
“Jain-friendly chole bhature! No onion, no garlic, and it still tastes incredible. Avi and Ranjeet really thought about every kind of customer. Rare to see that.”
Neha M.Mar 2025
“I work late shifts in the Bay and this is genuinely the only good food option past midnight downtown. Dal makhani, butter naan, done. Perfect every time.”
Kevin W.Mar 2025
“Halal meat confirmed, Jain options available, gluten-free gravies — this place is genuinely inclusive. The food itself is excellent. Tandoori chicken legs are a must.”
Fatima A.Feb 2025
“Cozy 20-seat spot but most people get takeaway anyway. The achari soya chaap was a revelation — I had no idea soya could taste this good. Great value too.”
Rohan P.Apr 2025
“My go-to when I leave the office late. The butter chicken here is better than places charging twice the price. The sirka onions they serve alongside are a lovely touch.”
