Experience the Tradition
THE DHABA @ CHARCOL
From woven charpais to slow-simmered curries, we serve not just food, but heritage. Taste the tradition. Feel the warmth. Live the story.

The DHABA Experience
Born from the soul of The Dhaba Experience, Charcol carries forward the legacy of roadside warmth and handcrafted flavor. Here, the charpai spirit meets charcoal finesse. Every dish is kissed by fire, rooted in tradition, and plated with purpose. It’s not just a kitchen — it’s a celebration of heritage, heat, and hospitality.
Located in the heart of Huntington Beach, Charcol Indian Kitchen is your go-to destination for savoring the bold, authentic tastes of India in a lively setting.
Nostalgic
Together, we create a journey that is both nostalgic and new: tradition at its core, innovation at its edges, and flavor that lingers long after the meal ends.
Rustic
At its core, the roadside experience is not just about eating — it’s about pausing, connecting, and feeling at home, no matter how far you are.
Authentic
From buttery dal and tandoori chicken to stuffed parathas, lassi, and chai, dhaba food celebrates warmth, generosity, and the joy of eating
