Roti and Chai is a famous restaurant in South Africa. ROTI & CHAI brings to you the authentic taste of Indian street food. The Roti and Chai Story is of humble beginnings, with just the tastiest tandoori chicken, created in his grandmother’s kitchen with his two daughters and a dream.

They are humbled and grateful to serve you, as a goal is only realized through its people. You are why they fire their Tandoors, which ignites their passion to bring you the tastiest wraps on the planet. India’s street food popularity has risen immensely, but they have something different. It’s real. It’s honest. It’s simple.

They’re bringing you the ultimate taste of India through their unique menu of Tandoor Wraps, Tandoor Chicken, Lamb, Veg, and seafood, and a selection of traditional Indian drinks. ‘CHAI CHAI’ they hear you say!

It’s just as you would find on the bustling streets of Mumbai, Delhi, and Calcutta. In this day and age, where Indian food has been reformed to the most sophisticated level, it has somehow lost its essence and authenticity.

They bring a straightforward and honest plate of food to their guests, inspired by age-old traditions and simplicity, food that will touch your heart and soul and that they believe is limitless. At Roti & Chai, they are not just cooking but redefining Indian Street Food.
