Cheeni Indian Food Emporium
Phone: (919) 377-2200
A call back to Chef Preeti Waas's earlier days of Cheeni, this lunchtime spot offers "menu of street-style classics & Indian-ish cult favorites." Located in Hub RTP, Cheeni Indian Food Emporium is a go to spot for items like samosas, street style toast, chicken naanza and more. Currently, Cheeni's RTP location is only open for lunch. But keep an eye out, because they have big plans for more offerings later this year.

An afternoon with my girls celebrating galentine at this place. It’s new and the decor is just outstanding. I tried the chicken roll and the chole bhature. Must must must have. The staff was just awesome .. very friendly and took the best pics ever. Made our celebration today even better. Will definitely go again. Preeti the owner and chef was there and it was an absolutely amazing experience

Recently went there with my coworkers on a team lunch. Loved the service, food and ambiance. The server explained all the specials many times to my big group of 15 people. Its a great spot to grab some quick lunch in the RTP area. Hope they will expand their menu and add some more variety!

If you haven’t had the pleasure of experiencing Preeti Waas’ cooking, please do yourself a favor and make a reservation now! This is her newest location and the food and drinks are as spectacular as her other restaurant! And this location is super convenient to Cary and Raleigh! I highly recommend it!

Delicious food, great service, great atmosphere especially with the huge outside area to hang out afterwards.
Cheesy toast appetizer - bread was perfectly crispy, cheese was delicious with melty goodness with a great spice level. At first bite I wasn't sure... then I housed the whole thing and wanted more.
Chicken Naanza - really good. Great sauce, naan held up well, great chicken.
Rice bowl - yum. Great variety of flavors. This one will be my go-to on return trips. So good. -
Absolutely fabulous! The flavors were so warm - not too subtle, but also not overwhelming. We had the paneer naanza (very tasty), samosa chaat (amazing mix of flavors) and chicken rice bowl (can't express enough how much we liked the way this chicken was cooked/spiced).
Service was very attentive.
Looking forward to going back to see their full dinner menu!
