Customer Reviews
It is a heritage Bengali restaurant (pice hotels)in the city of joy. Freedom fighters like Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose used to come here for lunch, and famous writer Sarabindu Banerjee was a daily customer here in his student life. Tinny shot eating place with a feeling of nostalgia. We have to wait to get our seats at lunch time, a huge rush during lunch time. Service was very fast. Come to the food, we ordered a veg thali , a baul fish, a katla fish thali. Taste was like home cooked food, not so spicy and over powered. The food was served on banana leaf and was was served in clay cup. Quality of the food was good, fishes were fresh and large in size.
This hotel has emotion in every corner. Freedom fighter with many memories. We go last day arround 2 pm here the ambience as small restaurant. Seating place limited but organized. Now come to teast all of item good and mouth-watering must try We ordered 1. Sukto 2.Daal 3. Pabda macher jhal 4. Chicken curry
The food was yummy and tasty. Cannot deny the fact that the Bengali cuisine is the best food type healthy and tasty to consume. Mutton, the variety of Fish basically everything i tasted was mouth watering . The more I saw people ordering the more i wanted to eat but my tummy factor was important so could not grab them all. Do visit this place.
Too expensive.. Taste not as expected.. Only 1thing positive about the place is very good behavior of the staff, other than this nothing else..
