My wife and I love Chakra and the food is always great. Last Saturday, however, we had service problems. We waited so long after our meal that we had to skip desert and head home to relieve the babysitter. Not what we expected after a $200 dinner for two.
Chakra. Nice experience – went early on Friday night to dinner with my husband. We are normally disappointed with many of the restaurants in Jersey. We started with the grilled octopus on a bed of white bean puree - it was amazing. If you have ever eaten octopus you know cooking time is everything. A minute too long and it is rubbery. This was just right. My husband had the 40 day steak from Colorado- it tasted like real meat and was cooked exactly to order. I had the crab cake entree and was delighted by all delicate flavor... read more
Not so great – the drinks were good, but pricey. $12 for a rather small martini. As soon as we sat we told our server that it was really cold because we were right under the vent. It didn't seem to matter. The sushi my friend ordered was ok, but the rice was kind of hard, and there was hardly any avocado in it. I'm not cheap but for $14 dollars a sushi roll should at least be fresh. My fish was good and I enjoyed it, however my friend ordered lamb medium and it came out rare. we asked several more times about the temperature... read more
My favorite Place – Chakra is one of the nicest restaurants in NJ; the lounge in beatiful andcomfortable, with the best drink prices in town. The food is superb and the decor is breathtaking. You will not be disapointed
Great Food, Great Wine – Went for the first time a couple weeks ago for their $20 3 course early dinner which was great (appetizer, entree and dessert - all beautifully prepared and presented. Was impressed, so we returned to give the regular menu a try - to be brief, it was spectacular start to finish -- we spent most of the time saying "here, you have to try this...no here, try this." Great food in a very unusual setting - a fun departure from our usual NJ haunts. And for the wine lovers out there, they had an extensive an... read more
Deliciously Different – If I had read some of these old posts before I went, I probably would have passed it up. We're glad we didn't. As soon as we stepped inside, we knew we were in for a treat. My wife said Wow and if you know my wife, she's not easily impressed. Between the lighting and the decor, plus the size of the dining room, it was definately unique. I hate to feel like other tables are right on top of me. I didn't there. Service was good. Our waiter seemed more informed than we usually expect. We couldn't find a c... read more
IF YOU KNOW AND ENJOY FOOD-STAY AWAY FROM CHAKRA – In one word Chakra is terrible. Some of the worst food I have ever eaten anywhere. I am up right now, on a Sunday morning, after brushing my teeth several times and drinking lots of water, and still cannot get the horrendous taste out of my mouth. The place is very lovely to look at but it's also very loud and the service is terrible. After we found a hair in our steak tartare our waitress didn't even apologize. A gentleman came out of the kitchen, apologized and told us he ... read more
Never Again – After reading a review in Bergen Magazine (and passing it on Rt. 4 everyday) we had to give it a try. We were welcomed by valet parking and entered the restaurant. It was Friday night at 7:30pm and there was no wait. Perhaps b/c the restaurant was not even 1/2 filled to capacity (try going to Houstons on a Friday night around that time). We were seated promptly and we had no immediate complaints with our waiter - BUT - the food was terrible. We started with the Boston Salad [$7] which was fine. My husband order... read more
BE WARNED of Chakra.... – went with a group of 8 saturday night. the service was HORRIBLE. the waiter didn't write anything down and half the food/drinks came out ok and the other half we had to ask again about. The food was very bland and barely had any taste at all. TGI Fridays had way better food. Even the dessert was bad b/c it seems like they just dumped a bag of sugar into each dessert. The bill came to $500 for 8 people with apps, entrees and drinks. My $500 would have been much better spent across the street at the R... read more
