" I recently visited Chulo for the first time based on a friend's recommendation, and boy, was I impressed! The khaja set was a fantastic introduction to their offerings, with a delightful array of flavors. While some dishes had a tad more heat than I expected, it was balanced well, and I enjoyed every bite. The atmosphere was lively, especially with the live music enhancing the evening. Service was pretty prompt, with our waitress being cheerful and helpful with our choices. I will definitely return and explore more of their menu! " (*Curated Review*)

Overall, a fantastic spot for anyone craving genuine South Asian food. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Chulo recently and I can safely say I am now a regular! Everything we ordered was seasoned well and really gratifying to eat. The curries were flavorful, welcomely complex, and nicely complemented by their rice and naan. The space is adorned with neat art, reflective of Nepali culture, which adds to its charm. There's always a lively atmosphere. Highly recommend this gem to anyone exploring eastern delights! " (*Curated Review*)

" Chulo Restaurant is an absolute delight! The moment you step in, you're greeted by the heavenly aroma of spices that instantly transports you to Nepal. I ordered the chicken tikka and the vegetable chowmein, and they were impeccable! The flavors were bold and fresh. The service was friendly and attentive without being overbearing. Plus, their Himalayan mojito is a must-try! This place is my new favorite spot, and I can't wait to come back for their live music nights! " (*Curated Review*)

" A great restaurant offering a blend of authentic recipes from Nepal and India. I loved their malai kofta—it was creamy and rich! The momos here are top-notch too. However, I found the portion sizes a bit on the smaller side compared to other places. Nevertheless, the food makes up for it! The atmosphere is vibrant, with beautiful decor and friendly service. I will be back to sample more items from their menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had heard a lot about Chulo from friends, and it fully lived up to the hype! I ordered their signature momos and the mixed thali. The meat was exceptionally tender, and the sauces that accompanied everything were bursting with flavor. The ambiance was upbeat with pleasant music creating the perfect dining vibe. Staff was friendly and helpful, recommending some excellent choices. I will definitely return to try more dishes soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've become a fan of Chulo! The variety of veg and non-veg offerings make it a perfect choice for companions with differing tastes. I had a rich paneer curry along with the sweet and spicy ginger drink, and they both delighted my palate! The seating arrangement is comfortable, and the decor gives it a welcoming feel. Looking forward to trying more dishes each time I visit! " (*Curated Review*)
