Iqra’s service was truly lovely, friendly, attentive, and with such a genuine smile. She made the visit feel personal and enjoyable, and it’s small touches like that which make you want to return. Thank you for the great experience.

🌟 5-Star Experience at Chaiiwala – Thanks to Shaista Nehal! 🌟 I had an absolutely amazing experience at Chaiiwala, and a big part of that was thanks to Shaista . From the moment I walked in, she gave a warm and welcoming greeting that instantly made me feel comfortable. The customer service was exceptional — Shaista was full of positive energy, incredibly friendly, and highly attentive throughout my visit. She offered great recommendations from the menu, and every suggestion turned out to be spot on. The food was flavourful, and beautifully presented. The hygiene standards were clearly maintained at a high level, which added to the overall pleasant dining experience. Shaista truly goes above and beyond — her enthusiastic attitude and professionalism make her a standout team member. She’s a real asset to Chaiiwala and turned a simple visit into a memorable one.
