"Went on a weekday and it was nice and quiet. The atmosphere felt warm and inviting. I came specifically for Kashmiri tea and it exceeded my expectations. The service was quick and the chai tasted incredible. The price is around five dollars, higher than a few other spots, yet absolutely worth it. I plan to return and try more from the menu."

"Update - October 5th, 2025 We ended up at Chai Ho Jai again today. I think I am getting addicted to this place! 😊 Just could not wait to dive into desi keema omelette with gluten-free roti. Freshly prepared served hot! This time we tried Mumbai cutting chai pot, ginger added to karak chai- awesome! Added another pic today. Thank you to all the staff! —————————— Wow, what a find! One of the VERY FEW DESI places where they serve Gluten Free roti’s upon request with their omelette, rolls, paninis etc. We had a regular lachha paratha that comes with malai and honey, and desi keema omelette with gluten free roti… and chai teapot! We ate to our hearts delight… and initially we were thinking about quick in and out with chai only! 😊 Will definitely visit again and recommend. Come early for brunch, you will not regret it. Waiting for them to open up in Lombard. Thank you Bilal for everything."

"Good tasty food. Tried their Halwa Puri and Karak Chai. You get 2 giant Puris, Alloo Bhaji, Channa, Pickle and Halwa. Food portions are decent. Food is tasty, Halwa is on the sweeter side. Tea is delicious. Haven't tried any other menu items and are in the bucket list. Will definitely recommend to try at least once. Update : Tried the following items on our second visit. Chicken Club Sandwich and Pink tea were Average. Crisp potato served with sandwiche were good."

"Chai Ho Jai is such a gem! The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the chai is absolutely perfect—flavorful, fresh, and made with real care. What made my visit even better was the service. Mani and Ganesh were incredible—friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. They made me feel right at home and added a personal touch that took the whole experience to another level. Can’t recommend this spot enough!"

"Food was excellent! I got the brunch Halwa Pura set as well as the Mumbia Cutting to drink. Everything was delicious and I didn't have to wait long for food. I wish I lived nearby - I'd love to come back and try more of the menu."
