Chaska - Reviews

This is my new favorite spot in SF! I requested my curry to be super spicy, and they absolutely delivered. Even though I may not look South Asian, I can handle the heat. It's a relief to find a place that believes me when I ask for no "Gora spice. " I'm so glad I discovered this gem; the food was incredibly flavorful. 10/10!

My family and I had a very delicious dinner. We all ordered different plates: lamb curry, chicken curry, chicken tikka masala, and tandoori chicken. Each dish came with generous servings of naan, basmati rice, chana masala, and gulab jamun. Everything was out of this world delicious, with just the right amount of heat – not too spicy, but so good! The service was excellent, and the wait staff were super friendly. Highly recommend!

This is a nice little spot that conveniently stays open later than most restaurants. My experience was positive; the food was good and the service very nice. I particularly enjoyed their onion naan, which was delicious!

I've visited this restaurant a few times and absolutely love it! It's operated by a nice family, and the food is so good, truly feeling "homemade" in the best way. The decor & music are also fun for dine-in.

My experience at Chaska was fantastic! They have the best Tandoori Chicken. I was also impressed with their recently introduced Beef seekh kebab, which is incredibly yummy. Even though there are many other Indian restaurants in Richmond, we always choose Chaska when we crave Indian dishes.

My experience at Chaska Restaurant was centered around their truly delicious paneer naan. It was described as soft, fluffy, and generously stuffed with flavorful, spiced paneer. The combination of buttery naan and rich paneer created a delicious and indulgent treat that paired perfectly with their curries. I'd say it's a must-try for paneer lovers and anyone looking to elevate their Indian meal!

I visited "Chaska" on Sunday, February 9th, during my trip to San Francisco, CA, and was very disappointed with the service. The staff was inattentive, and it took over 40 minutes just to place an order. When our food finally arrived, it was not the entire order. As we are Indian, we usually order extra chapati with our meals. We ended up having dinner in 3-4 installments, with gaps of over 10 minutes between each service for just the chapati. It seems they don't have enough staff to prepare food. The receptionist left the counter for 20 minutes, and no one was there to attend to us until she finally came out with some of our ordered food. When we asked her about the delay, she said she is a student and doesn't know about the hospitality sector. We also requested to speak with a manager. The manager came with a high attitude, perhaps she never took hospitality classes, and used words like, "We took notice of your complaint, you should leave out now. " While the food was decent, the poor service completely ruined our experience. I hope they improve, but for now, I wouldn’t recommend this place.

My new favorite Indian spot in the Bay! The dishes are incredibly rich and flavorful, and the prices are great for the city. The Tikka masala was insane. They shared insights into their cooking process, like marinating dishes the night before, and you can truly feel the love that goes into the place. The staff was also very friendly.

If I could give 1000/5, I would! My experience at this restaurant was exceptional. The nicest people ever served us, and the food was very, very good. We particularly enjoyed the Tandoori platter and the Lamb Curry Thali. Seriously, if you're on Geary and don't come here, what are you even doing with your life, dude? The people were truly the nicest.

My experience at the restaurant was fantastic! I ordered the chicken leg and paneer naan, and the chef made everything absolutely delicious. The samosa chaat was also yummy. I love how they cook here and will definitely keep on coming back. 👍
