It was good visit to Nikki’s chaat cafe they had good service and good team And food was so great ❣️❣️

Pleasantly surprised. One of the best Indian restaurants I’ve had. The chaat appy was a flavor explosion on your taste buds. Reminded me of eating street carts in punjab. The chicken tikka was cooked to perfection. The Daal Makhni was if my own mother cooked it. The tandoori fish I will put up with the best that I have had in the entire San Francisco Bay Area. Topped it with that Indian coffee. This was truly a chef’s kiss meal. I would highly recommend.

The place is spotless and beautifully designed, creating a pleasant atmosphere enhanced by a welcoming scent from the moment you step inside. The manager and waitstaff were incredibly welcoming, attentive, and friendly. The food was an absolute delight. I will definitely be coming back to enjoy this wonderful environment and its high-quality food again.

Amazing food! Lamb Curry and Butter Chicken were the best! I've been to a lot of Indian restaurants and this one really got the Naan perfect! This and crispy, with the aroma of the tandoor. I highly recommend it!

We came after a long day of snow tubing and skiiing. We had half hour before closing but no pressure from Rajat. He was very kind, courteous and very understanding. They had buffet for New Year Eve. Food had a surprisingly good variety, and very good taste, which worked out for us as well as for my special needs GF kid. He was very happy with the sweet hospitality as well. It was nice meeting Rajat, thank you for having us.

This is an excellent restaurant in South Lake Tahoe. The food is authentic, flavorful, and refreshingly simple. Service is fast and attentive even during peak hours, and the warmth and hospitality truly stand out. Convenient location with ample parking. Pricing is reasonable given the quality of food, location and service. Remember, this is lake Tahoe where it's hard to find authentic Indian food. Whenever I'm here and craving Indian food, this is my go-to place. They will treat every customer very well and make adjustments to their food as desired. A must-visit for anyone looking for authentic Indian cuisine in South Lake Tahoe.

We had a wonderful dining experience here! The pander chilli, korma, and dal makhni were absolutely delicious — each dish was full of flavor and cooked to perfection. The taste was rich and satisfying, making it a memorable meal. The ambiance of the restaurant was equally impressive: warm, inviting, and perfect for enjoying good food with friends or family. The combination of tasty dishes and a pleasant atmosphere made the visit truly enjoyable. Highly recommended for anyone looking for authentic Vegetarian flavors and a great dining environment! Reasonable price with more quantity.

The onion pakoras are excellent! We ordered more to take home 😋. Also really appreciated their willingness to accommodate our dietary restrictions — my mom can’t eat spicy and they made the spice level perfect for her. Also they kindly used ghee to do the tarkaa on the dal because my dad can’t eat oil… The 5 star rating I’ve given is because my mom said she felt this was a 5 star experience. She is an excellent cook herself, so that’s saying a lot!

Great value for the price! I've ordered paneer and expected to get 3-4 cubes well hidden in a cup of sauce, as I'm used to from other places. But the cup was full of paneer, with a reasonable amount of sauce. Levels of spicy 0-5, with medium being really medium. Good selection of naan - 6 or 7 varieties. Fast service, friendly staff. Will definitely come back for more paneer.

I feel so grateful to have discovered this treasure! This is my go-to Indian restaurant in Lake Tahoe, and I'm utterly captivated by their amazing Chicken Madras. The staff has been remarkably kind and helpful. I'll always come back to this gem!

The perfect place for some good food. The service was 5-star. This being a small place in Tahoe with handful of staff (atleast when we went), it was managed very well. Our order - tal tadka, butter chicken, chilli garlic naan, tandoori roti and rice.

I recently visited this Indian restaurant and was pleasantly surprised. The ambience is decent — clean, comfortable, and welcoming, though not overly fancy. What truly stands out is the food; every dish was bursting with authentic flavor and perfectly spiced. The service was also attentive and friendly, making the overall experience enjoyable. While I noticed a few negative reviews online, I honestly think they don’t do justice to the quality of the food served here. If you’re looking for delicious Indian cuisine and good service, this place is definitely worth a visit. P.S: There is an 18% additional charge for dine-ins. But still it’s worth it. You choose what would you like 🙂

I wanted to share a positive experience I had at an Indian restaurant recently. I arrived almost at their closing time, and I was pleasantly surprised that they were still able to accommodate me. The food was incredibly tasty, which was especially welcome after a long drive. I ordered the garlic naan and the madras chicken curry, and I can confirm that the food quality was very good. Finally don’t miss the masala chai. Beyond the delicious meal, the restaurant is also in a perfect location, making it very convenient. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great Indian meal and I certainly plan to go again soon.

-Lacked Authenticity -Over priced -Too bland -unbalanced flavor This doesn’t taste like real Indian food. More like a watered-down version. Spent $178 for the worst indian food of my life ! Everything was bland no taste meat was raw/undercooked. Only the pakora was good not the best but still better than everything i order 10+ item seriously!! Never ever going back to this restaurant

The food tasted stale, wasn’t fresh for sure. We ordered fish curry, lamb curry, butter chicken and malai kofta and they all looked the same and I being Indian know that none of the curries looked the way they are supposed to. Chicken tikka had such tiny pieces of chicken like the size of chicken in salad. We paid $180+ and regretted it. They are over pricey as compared to the quality of the food. Poor service, only one person taking orders and wasn’t kind either. Never going back there.

We went there in a group. very dissatisfied with the service and food. Pappadom was raw, foods were tasteless. The owner even dare to take back water and left us with empty glasses because one of the kids spill some water in the table. Made us feel embarrassing and disrespectful. Never ever had such experience eating out. On top of that they charged 18% service tax for the worst customer service. Red flag and not recommended at all.

Service was really poor. The food wasn’t good. We know how difficult is working in the mountains but their attitude was not like a business man. They were totally money minded people. They must make their customer happy for getting service charge but took $18 service charge unknowingly. I don’t recommend 100% this restaurant.

during the Lake Tahoe visit.we went there for dinner.we ordered curries biryani and naan.biryani was tasteless.curry was okay. but service was very worse than food.especially the lady owner got mad often and rude. and the horrible thing they forced to pay 18% service charged for this kind of shitty service. I saw they charged all the costumers 18% service charges. I have regretted why I went there.

Josh Silva

***BEWARE 18% SERVICE CHARGE*** This is absolutely ridiculous that a service charge is mandatory with eating. Already the food is VERY high price for the food you get. This food is naturally very cheap but inflated 10 times the amount. The service charge would make us never go to this restaurant. People just want to enjoy family time in a nice setting without being scammed by an 18% charge. America is the land of choice and never forced charge. Tips are getting out of hand and SHOULD never be forced. The customer should always have a choice. Please remember that Nikki Chat. You have lost multiple customers because of this and we will be sure to spread the word to everyone not to come and support your business when you have business practices like this. For all interested in coming here go to the Himalyian Restaurant down the road. Food quality is amazing with no service charge. Please remove this service charge if you want customers.

The food was not at all fresh, thus I would not suggest this to anyone. I came here for tea and samosas, but they both smelt strange and weren't fresh. Being Indian definitely can identify samosas cooked in old oil and even though aloo tiki was not fresh at all. Service was quite unpleasant and they charge 18% on dine in orders.

I got sick after eating here and was served expired soda. They never answered when I tried to reach out. What’s even more suspicious — check their 5-star reviews. Many are from accounts with nearly identical names, and I even saw one with the name of a receptionist from our receipt. Really? Looks like an attempt to bury 1-star reviews. We’ve gone to the health department and filed a formal complaint. Honestly, you’re better off staying hungry than eating here.
