About this business
The cuisine served at Chola New York is eclectic, and comes from provinces all over India. With white walls, dark wood and fresh table linens, you can feast like an Indian prince. Try shrimp bhuna, chicken tikka, Bombay calamari or grilled tandoori dishes. Also popular is the naan (flat bread) and Uthappam (a vegetable pancake composed of rice and lentils). Many entrees are spicy, eye-opening and unusual. Half the menu is made up of vegetarian and vegan offerings, while the other half features a great deal of tasty seafood, ... read more

CLOSE DOWN – A person here left this review which i definately agree with. I dont know y i decided to go here, one reason i think was City search another was just me being dumb. Iv tried all the restaurants on this street including Chola and Ada. With tough competetion... 4 indian restaurants on the same street i expected them to have good food or service or quality of presentation; i mean at least something. None of these restaurants would qualify for being there. I believe they should get a new Management, chef or somethin... read more
"Never again" – I am indian myself and getting decent feedback about the place we decided to check it out. However, the food was average at best. Service was extremely poor and I had to stand at the door for 20 mins before being helped. On the whole the food was below average and not worth the price. It was all about how much "tip" we would leave... seriously it was such a rip off, its really not a recommended place for anyone. They put Indian hospitality to shame.
We love this place – We love Chola. I am very demanding about my food. We have never been disappointed. Never! We will highly recommend this place to everybody. Whenever we have taken our friends they always have been impressed by the service. There is some scope for improvement in service, but they are getting there.
Go if you have along time to wait – We went to dinner for my mom's b-day and received terrrible service. The seating was absolutely ridiculous, they tried to fit 5 adults on a tiny square table, when asked to move to a larger table we were not greeted with the the friendliest service. Appetizers were fairly decent, however had to wait almost an hour for our main course to arrive, when it did arrive it was cold! We spent over $250 on dinner and were truely dissapointed with the meal, we would not return.
Indian Food that is made from Heaven! – I am from Boston, and i visit my best friend in NY almost every month. And every time i come i insist to go to Chola. Its an indian food that is made from heaven! My favorites are: Chicken Tikka Masala, Samosa & Saag paneer. And all the dessert menu are great. I also tried the south indian coffee. I order it usually after having the best alcoholic drink in the world which called "Kamasutra"! Yes... it lets your body feel like you are in a Kamasutra movie. I tried both dinner and buffet... read more
Very disappointing – After seeing that this resaurant received a rating of 9.6, my family and I took my sister there for her birthday, however, the service was beyond terrible. A different waiter came to the table every five minutes so our food never came out in time, and we had to repeat things over and over since the original person who took our order was no longer waiting on us. We were rushed to get out even though we weren't even there for an hour, just so they could give the table away - meanwhile there were several un... read more
Tour India's culinary geography in an unassuming spot on 58th Street's Indian Row. – In Short "Eclectic Indian cuisine" is the tagline, and indeed, the extensive menu at Chola showcases dishes from all of India's culinary regions: dosas and idly from Madras, vindaloo from Goa, and a host of Punjabi, Bengali and other specialties. Each dish is elaborately described on the menu, making every meal an education. The large, dimly lit space is pleasant but fairly plain. The fixed-price lunch buffet offers an excellent opportunity ... read more
The Sunday Buffet is Supreme – And a great value. Based on the menu prices, the value of the buffet is made up before you even hit the buffet with the appetizers that are served to the table. The buffet food is very good, although most of the more inventive menu items are usually not available. Nevertheless, it tastes great. Even if you don't go for the buffet, it is an excellent experience -- just a much pricier one.
Great Meal and Service – I ate here after searching Citysearch's reviews, and everyone else was right! I was visiting from Colorado, and ate dinner here with my 8 year old twins (who tried Indian food for the first time and loved it). The food was phenomenal- perfectly seasoned, cooked to perfection. The wait staff was attentive without being overbearing, and our waiter gave thoughtful advice on dishes that would be suitable for the children. I wish Chola would open in my town! Will definitely return on my next visit.
