Chaula's Indian Cafe Lewes

We had a delicious meal on a damp autumn Thursday evening. The Bombay potato was so delicious unlike any I have ever eaten before, full of sauce and flavour. The Dhal was so good, too. I ate these two dishes with coconut rice which was perfect. I look forward to returning.

We went for dinner very recently twice within a week. This is an authentic genuine Indian restaurant. This is so very different from the many Bangladeshi restaurants pretending to serve Indian food. This is a proper Indian restaurant serving delicious dishes. Our experience was simply wonderful from non veg platters starters to the many main courses and desserts. The chef Tarun knows his business and the service was great. I would highly recommend this restaurant to one and all. A great pity we live a few hundred miles away but hope to visit again in the not too distant future.

Excellent food and service. Relaxing ambience and a good place for a meal and to talk to your companions

In our recent visit to this restaurant in Lewes, our intention was to enjoy some drinks and starters. However, during our time there, we encountered a rather surprising and disappointing incident. A lady, who we assumed either owned or managed the establishment, approached us and requested that we leave. Her reason was that the restaurant did not solely serve starters. What made this encounter particularly perplexing was the fact that the restaurant was completely empty at the time, with no other patrons present except for us. This led to a sense of disbelief and astonishment regarding the situation. Our disappointment stems from the treatment we received and the apparent lack of courtesy exhibited by many Indian restaurants in the Lewes and Brighton area. It's disheartening to encounter such rude behavior, especially when customers were willing to patronize their establishment. This experience highlights the importance of hospitality and customer service in the restaurant industry, and it's unfortunate that it fell short in this particular instance.

We had a great experience at Chaula's this evening! We were seated promptly, served promptly, and checked on regularly. The waitstaff were polite and attentive. The food was delicious, with generous portions and great flavor! Absolutely no complaints.
