Outstanding food!! The staff were lovely, very attentive and polite, and its in a wonderful location. I would definitely go back, their prawn dishes were delicious!

Love this place. Great food, great service, and dog friendly. Went here on Sunday for my Birthday family meal. Never disappoints, from starters to the end! Try all starters/sharers as all amazing. Samosa Chat & Keema Pav my favourites. I had the Murg E-stew cooked to the heat you want. All other dishes amazing too. The whole team are lovely, even the chefs came out to sing Happy Birthday. Highly, highly recommend.

I was looking for a riverside Indian restaurant for dinner and I hit the right spot. 10 on 10 for food and hospitality shown by staff (Shivani and Vimalan). I must say that this place exceeded my expectations.

Went for bottomless brunch twice now and the amount of drinks are hit and miss depending on your server. But can't really complain too much as what you get for your money is really good value! The food is lovely!The tables outside come with a great view, but inside is lacking atmosphere (especially compared to the places that have been there before).

We travelled all the way from Bournemouth & it was our first visit , to this place hoped in & enjoyed a great meal & drinks . The staffs were friendly , very keen on assisting & anticipating .. had a friendly conversation , the outlet manager is a gem to this place took a great care of our taste buds & he exactly knew what to offer from The a Al carte menu ... a perfect place to enjoy a cozy meal & drinks sitting on the banks of Thames river (not to mention the ganga of London ?) will visit again to explore more on the menu , me being a chef myself it hardly happens that I like someone's cooking but this one needed special notation : the palak papri chaat & dahi k kebab were magnificent .. yet the portion size of mains needs to be a lil more considering the pricing But the overall experience matters the most & not the prices

First the location is brilliant... by the Kingston Riverside, with the option for outdoor seating and enjoy the river view ... watch people, listen to music by a live band on the riverside ... Second the food is awesome. For the veggies, there is a good choice of options. Finally the people simply make the experience memorable. Great service. Shoutout to Vimalan for his warmth and cheerful service, attention to details and taking care of us. Recommend the place. We look forward to going again!

Super delicious food in a fantastic Kingston riverside location! The staff were fantastic, so attentive and polite. We had starters and mains and there is a great selection of traditional food, all full of flavour! An excellent experience and will definitely be going back. Can never understand why people flock to the boring chain restaurants along the river front when Chakra is an option!Vegetarian options: Plenty of veggie options. Loads of lentil and paneer based choices.

Exquisite food, and excellent service from all the staff. Unfortunately my experience ended rather unpleasantly due to the manager shouting at his staff in front of the customers. It made us feel really uncomfortable.

Will start with positives. Friendly staff, food tasted good enough, presented very well, but was bought out extremely fast from moment of ordering. This may explain why all of it was cold. A disappointing visit if im truly honest. As i said the food did have great flavours. But was just about warm and considering how quickly it turned up id imagine was sitting waiting a while. More went into the presentation id say than anything else so dont be fooled by pretty looking display on plates that this will be as good as it looks. Staff were friendly but need training on how to serve and be with customers. Constantly at your table the second a dish looks to nearly be finished they are taking them off your table. I had to explain i was still eating one of my dishes as they tried to take it away. I must have been interrupted about 5 times during my date with my other half asking if everything was ok. Overpriced for what you get. Im a local to this place and had been meaning to try ut for some time. Safe to say i shall not be returning. There are far better options around

Staff were very friendly and a nice/clean venue but very overpriced for the portion sizes given. There is hardly any meat in the dishes mainly gravy, same with paneer, no salads or side dishes added within the prices. We have been to many Indian restaurants and usually after starters we can just about think about the mains. At chakra after the starters we were still very hungry, the platters barely was enough for 2 let alone more. Sorry but would not return or recommend it unless you’re happy to leave £300 lighter like we did and got McDonald’s on the way home!
What can I say perfection on a plate.. staff very friendly food perfect price very good. I would say great for an evening out with friends or as a couple. Great view as it's right by Kingston bridge.

Best place to enjoy your summer lunch and dinner. Delicious Indian food and very friendly staff and ambience. Nitish’s served us and food was very good and her service was quick and efficient.

Nice serve and food is delicious! The price is around £8-12 for each dish which is pretty nice in London!

My husbands birthday dinner out. Afghani chicken, lamb Rogan Joshi, shahl palak paneer, garlic naan and rice were so great. Vimalan was very sweet serving us. Recommend and will come again.
