" Sanja Chula has stolen my heart! The authentic flavors took me back to the bustling streets of India. I have tried many dishes and they were all equally delicious. Their tandoori momos are a must-try; I couldn't get enough. The staff is kind and attentive, making you feel right at home. I will definitely return, perhaps even make this my regular Indian food spot! " (*Curated Review*)

" I found myself at Sanja Chula on a random evening and the experience turned out well! Though it’s primarily a takeout spot, they offer quite the variety and the quality is consistently good. The tandoor items I had felt freshly made and flavorful. The garlic naan was delightful but could be thicker for my liking. Overall, a pleasant dining experience and I would recommend it to others. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Sanja Chula for the first time last week. The ambiance was simple, given it's a take-out place; however, the food was outstanding. I ordered the dal makhani and the taste was a perfect balance of spices and creaminess. I also tried the samosas which were crispy and well-stuffed. It was busy, so be prepared to wait a little, but definitely worth it. I came away very satisfied and intend to return for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" 100% recommend Sanja Chula for any Indian food lover! I just had their chicken curry and garlic naan, and both were bursting with flavor. The chef knows what they are doing; it tasted very much like traditional Indian fare that you find back home. I also appreciate their packaging for takeout; everything arrived hot and intact. I’m planning to bring friends next time so they can have the same amazing experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" Being a huge fan of Indian food, I was excited to try Sanja Chula after hearing so many positive comments. And let me tell you, it did not disappoint! The chole bhature was perfectly spiced and the bhature were fluffy and delicious. I also had their paneer butter masala, which was creamy and tasted like it came straight from a homestyle kitchen. The service was friendly, and even though the place is primarily for takeout, I was able to enjoy my meal at their upstairs area which had a cozy feel. Highly recommend stopping by!

" I had a mixed experience at Sanja Chula. While I really enjoyed the flavors in the dish I ordered, I felt the service could use some improvement, as we waited quite a while for our food. The atmosphere is that of a casual takeout place, which was fine, but I expected more from the overall dining experience. I'd be willing to give it another shot for the food alone. " (*Curated Review*)

" The experience at Sanja Chula was generally positive. The authenticity of flavors felt genuine, and while most items were good, a few, like their naan, could be improved. They were a bit too crispy for my liking. Regardless, I found the menu diverse and enticing, and there’s a great vibe of community in the place. I’ll continue to return given the consistent quality of the main dishes. " (*Curated Review*)
