" My overall experience at Chai Samosa was a mixed bag. While the samosas and roadside snacks tasted authentic and were well-prepared, the service felt disorganized. I waited quite a while for my order, and several diners around me seemed frustrated as well. The place has a lively atmosphere that I really enjoyed, and I appreciate the efforts of the staff. They need a little more coordination, and then I think they could hit their stride. Worth trying again! " (*Curated Review*)

" Chai Samosa stood out for me not just for its food but for the cultural experience it provides. I ordered a delicious platter that included a variety of their street snacks. The refreshing flavors of the dahi puri and the crunch of the pakoras gave me a taste of India that was immensely satisfying. My only concern was the seating arrangements, as it was quite cramped. Overall, a worthy stop for anyone looking to savor some great Indian dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had my doubts initially, but Chai Samosa truly delivers on authentic Indian flavors! The sitafal rabdi was melt-in-your-mouth delicious, while the dahi puri was refreshing and well-balanced in spices. It's pretty evident the team takes pride in their food as everything tasted fresh. However, the seating area could use more attention as it was quite cramped and messy when I visited. Service took longer than expected, but the taste made up for it. A must-try for anyone craving Indian snacks! " (*Curated Review*)

" Chai Samosa is an embodiment of Indian culinary culture right here in Franklin. The rich flavors from their dishes take me back to my hometown. The chicken biryani I ordered was delicious, but I was slightly taken aback by how little chicken was served compared to the amount of rice. I also loved their sweets; the rabdi is a must-try! The service was amiable but could be better in speed. Overall, this restaurant feels like home to me. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently dropped by Chai Samosa while out grocery shopping, and I have to say, the experience was a bit of a rollercoaster. The food tasted fantastic—particularly the veg Hakka noodles which were flavorful and well-made. However, the service was a bit chaotic—my order took longer than expected, and there was a mix-up with one of the dishes. Nevertheless, the atmosphere was vibrant and colorful, which somewhat made up for the delays. I think if they can work out the service issues, they’ll create a truly amazing spot for Indian food lovers! " (*Curated Review*)

" Chai Samosa comes highly recommended, and I can see why! The street food vibe is strong in this cozy dining area. I loved their mutton biryani—very flavorful, although I wished for more meat in the dish. The portion sizes left me satisfied. The atmosphere feels inviting, but it can get crowded, especially during weekends. The staff is attentive but just slightly slow during rush hours. Still, I can’t wait for my next visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're craving authentic Indian street food, Chai Samosa is your go-to spot. The samosas are crispy, bursting with flavor, and the spiced tea is just perfect. I always leave satisfied, and the prices are reasonable, which is a plus! I wish they could improve the tidiness of the dining area, though. It sometimes feels a bit congested, but that's probably because it's popular among foodies. I can’t wait to return to try their desserts next time! " (*Curated Review*)
