Brand overview
CHA Street Food began as a dream and has grown into a movement celebrating the rich tapestry of South Asian street cuisine. With a mission to share authentic flavors, foster community connections, and create memorable dining experiences, the brand has established thriving locations in Tysons Corner and Sterling, VA. The restaurant brings the vibrant flavors of South Asian street food to life, serving up chaat, wraps, rice bowls, sandwiches, and indulgent milkshakes. Inspired by travels to Pakistan, CHA blends authentic cuisine, music, and community into a nostalgic, flavor-packed experience that also offers catering and a High Tea service.
