Chutes Restaurant has changed ownership over the years--it is now an Indian restaurant (that also serves fare like ribeye steaks, likely to cater to the meat-and-potatoes clientele).

Get the word out--Douglas is so fortunate to have this...

The chai is authentic and SO delicious with rich flavors of ginger and cardamom, and the mango lassi creamy and tangy, like a party in my mouth. As for the atmosphere— I grew up here and even waited tables in the restaurant 20 years ago, so it feels very homey to me. :) Service was super friendly...
