Vijay's Chawalla

Vijay's Chawalla is a culinary gem that caters to the vegetarian palate with its delectable offerings and warm Gujarati hospitality. As a vegetarian, I was delighted to discover this haven of vegetarian cuisine, and my recent dining experience left me thoroughly impressed. The restaurant boasts a charming and inviting atmosphere, creating a comfortable and relaxed dining environment. The decor is tasteful, reflecting the rich cultural heritage of Gujarat, and the attentive staff, predominantly Gujarati, exuded warmth and professionalism. The highlight of my visit was undoubtedly the Gujarati Thali—an exquisite feast that showcased the diverse flavors and culinary traditions of Gujarat. The thali consisted of an array of delicacies served in small bowls, allowing me to savor a variety of flavors in one meal. Each dish was prepared with finesse, using fresh and high-quality ingredients that elevated the dining experience. From the moment the thali was presented, I was captivated by the vibrant colors and enticing aromas. Also side dishes , Dhokla, crispy Fafda, and fluffy Khandvi were among the starters that delighted my taste buds with their unique textures and delightful flavors. The main course offered an assortment of dishes such as the aromatic Gujarati Kadhi, comforting Undhiyu, and flavorful Gujarati Dal. The perfectly cooked Basmati rice and soft Rotis complemented the flavors beautifully. What truly stood out was the impeccable balance of spices in every dish, allowing each ingredient to shine and creating a harmonious blend of flavors. The chefs at Vijay's Chawalla have undoubtedly mastered the art of Gujarati cuisine, leaving no room for disappointment. To conclude the meal, the restaurant offered a delightful assortment of traditional Gujarati desserts. The melt-in-your-mouth Mohanthal and the sweet and sticky Jalebi were absolute delights, providing a sweet ending to a memorable dining experience. In summary, Vijay's Chawalla is a haven for vegetarian food enthusiasts, offering a Gujarati culinary journey that is second to none. The delightful Gujarati Thali, combined with the warm and attentive service, makes for an unforgettable dining experience. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone seeking an authentic taste of Gujarat in a welcoming and vibrant setting.

Every so often I eat here or order for delivery. Delicious, authentic Gujarati food which plenty of dishes that can be veganised. The channa masala is amazing. I agree with some reviews stating that the spice level is low, but I'm not sure this is a fair criticism (I believe food from this region is generally less spicy). I often order the deluxe thali (pictured is less than half of what comes) - they veganise it by replacing the gulab jamun with jalebi, and raita with dhokla. I strongly recommend this place.

This place is modest looking with your basic chair and table line up. Always a queue every time I come, this must be a good sign. Food we ordered was chillie mogo chips, dosa with sambhar and the chole bhatura. It was a delicious meal the food had a lot of flavour. And to end masala tea which is overwhelming spicy I think a few too many black peppers, we just added some sugar and it was fine. Cutlery was clean and seating was clean. I have come previously and will continue to come.

Visited the restaurant in many years, and the food was amazing, despite lock down there was enough items on the menu to choose from. The service was fantastic with tabek given fairly quickly and starter order taken without much wait. The food arrived quickly as well. We really enjoyed all the food we had ordered but the highlight was papdi chaat, bhajiya and chilly chips and chilly fried idli. The masala uttapa was also great. Definitely worth a visit if your in the green st area. The place has been around for years and food has always been great.

Great restaurant serving South Indian and Gujarati food. The food was great and they have a great variety. Do try their "Today's special" which changes everyday. I think the service could be more attentive and the waiters definitely need to have a smile on their faces. They have a counter where you can buy Gujarati snacks and different types of chaats. Wheelchair accessible and they also have restrooms.
