As an undergrad at Cal in the late 90s, Vik's was one of the "must visit" spots. At the time, it was about 10 years old - Vik's Chaat opened in 1989 as a small food counter in Vik's Market, which itself opened in 1987. Back then, it was in a warehouse. In 2009, Vik's moved to a bigger location in West Berkeley, complete with bright pink and orange painted walls on the outside.
