  2. Unlimited thali Net −1
    “We unknowingly ordered an unlimited thali, and no terms or restrictions were explained at the time of ordering.

  3. Chole bhature Net −2
    “Yesterday I brought chole bhature at night. Firstly in north Indian food there will be good taste of salt and spices . Than in chole bhature white grams should be used . Black grams used in street food otherwise they also don't use . Nature got cold too early . No salt no taste of spices . At least provide all the things which comes along with chole bhature. Only black grams , nature and onion ?”

Try Combos. Use the combo options if you want to sample several sweet, spicy and tangy chaat flavours without ordering each separately.

The Bottom Line

Chatori Gali in Al Barsha is a vegetarian Indian restaurant where you can combine street-food snacks with a proper North Indian meal. The strongest draw is jalebi: reviewers describe it as freshly made, hot, thin and crisp, and particularly good with rabri. Gol gappe, aloo tikki and palak chaat are other specifically praised choices, while dal makhani, paneer dishes and breads make the menu more substantial than a quick snack stop.

The setting is generally described as clean, comfortable and lively, with several diners praising friendly, quick service. It can work for family dining, although seating is said to be limited for larger groups. Combo options are useful if you want to try several sweet, spicy and tangy chaat flavours in one visit.

There is some inconsistency. A number of reviews mention prices feeling high for the portions, and complaints include cold or stale food and waits of more than 30 minutes. One review reported an undisclosed thali policy that prevented packing leftovers.

Several diners also reported unrequested drink charges, so check the bill carefully before paying. For a first visit, go for the jalebi with rabri and allow extra time at peak hours.
