Someone has cleared out the space and removed the signage and menu from outside. There is no mention of a closing, permanent or otherwise, on Chakra's website and social media.
Chakra, which opened in late 2023, served vegan and vegetarian Thai dishes ... as well as a Jain and Swaminarayan menu. They also offered gluten-free and low- or no-oil meals.
It was the kind of hidden gem that never got its due. Great food, sure ...though eating there often felt like pulling up a chair in someone's under-decorated apartment.
The same owners also run May Kaidee on the Lower East Side.
