Dining in Chapel West
Chapel Street eats bigger than its size. Within a few walkable blocks you can find sushi and ramen, Tibetan dumplings, brick oven pizza, Indian fried chicken, a kosher bakery, a vegan kitchen, poke, Thai, Mexican, Middle Eastern, and a couple of bars worth settling into for the evening.
Almost all of it is independent and locally owned. Nothing is more than a few minutes from anything else, so you can browse by what you are in the mood for rather than by how far you are willing to walk.
