Chutneys Bellevue

We celebrated our anniversary here, looking for a cozy and intimate dinner spot, and it turned out to be perfect. We started the evening with drinks that set the mood beautifully. The ambiance was warm and inviting that is just right for a romantic night out. We ordered chicken momos and Drums of Heaven, both packed with flavor and cooked perfectly. The highlight was the matka biryani so beautifully presented that I forgot to take a picture because we were completely lost in the moment! It was rich, aromatic, and full of authentic Indian spices. What truly made the evening unforgettable was the exceptional service. The staff was attentive, kind, and consistently checked in to make sure everything was perfect. Their warmth and hospitality added such a special touch to our celebration. Than

Chutney’s in Bellevue totally hit the spot! My wife and I started with the Manchow Soup-just the right amount of spice and tang, super flavorful. Then came the Vegetarian Biryani, served in a handi sealed with naan to keep it hot and aromatic. It was absolutely delicious. Big shoutout to Hira, the Maitre D’, he was friendly, attentive, and clearly loves what he does. The whole staff made us feel right at home. Great food, great vibes, we will definitely be back!

My wife and I tried Chutney’s and the food was honestly delicious. The butter chicken was super creamy and the lamb biryani had great flavor and tender meat. I only wish they let you pick a spice level when ordering. Everything we had was on the higher end of the spicy scale. If you love a serious kick, then it will be perfect for you!

Shebab E Kabab was definitely not worth the $40 — the meat didn’t taste fresh and was quite bland. The Lasoni Gobi also seemed undercooked, as the flour tasted raw. However, the biryani, butter chicken, lamb, and roti were all very good. My favorite was the biryani! We were a family of six, and unfortunately the food did not come out at the same time. We were hoping to enjoy our dinner together. It was also extremely hot inside.you may want to adjust the temperature for guests’ comfort. That said, we absolutely loved our server, Sally — she was wonderful!

“Overpriced Hype, Underwhelming Taste.” I visited Chutneys last evening and honestly, I was quite disappointed with the overall experience. While the staff was friendly and attentive (service deserves 4/5), the food and drinks did not live up to the hype or pricing. Here’s my breakdown: • Kadak Chai – I specifically asked if they had good chai and ordered it with high expectations. Unfortunately, it was not good at all. Rating: 1/5 • Amritsari Fish (Starter) – Did not meet expectations; lacked taste and freshness. Rating: 0.5/5 • Palak Paneer – The gravy was decent, but the paneer was hard and chewy, which spoiled the dish. Rating: 2.5/5 • Mumbai Cha Kolhapuri Chicken – An average dish at best. Rating: 2.5/5 • Tandoori Roti – Extremely hard, almost painful to chew, and we had to leave it
