This place is amongst the top 50 restaurants in India as voted by Conde Naste Travellers award. They are known for their traditional Bengali cuisine and is located at the address which Christens itself and have expanded to three more outlets. The entrance was inviting as it was housed in a Bungalow thus does not give you a restaurant feel- in a good way and feel warmer and relaxed. The traditional hand fans adorn the walls and there is a large one which hangs above the lobby. There was a buffet too, but the spread is too small to do justice to our tasting venture. Since we were a large group, we went for the Ala carte and ordered most of the dishes that were popular : Gondhoraj chicken – the gondhoraj lemon element was missing and it was just plain limp soft fried chicken strips with green chili batter. Next came the Prawn Cutlet which was good and I would say the mustard dip comes to the rescue, to the otherwise flat flavour. The fish Kabiraji was an interesting but was too oily to enjoy the dish. For the Mains, stuck to the regular, Kosha Mangsho – the mutton was well cooked but too bony and was on the saltier side. The Doi Murg did not seem to have any added yoghurt and the chicken was too chewy to enjoy! The Dab Chingri was the only dish that lived upto the expectation. The prawns were well cooked and the flavours were spot on with a hint of turmeric, curd and subtle tender coconut flavour, all in all a very well executed dish. The mains were accompanied with Chholar Dal – too sweet for my liking, Luchi and Radhabhallavi – Both of which were good but Luchi could have had a more flakier texture. The service was prompt and courteous although I guess they were not prepped for attending to ala carte tables as there were no cutleries provided even until the 3rd appetiser had come. The pricing was nominal which was roughly 950 including taxes.
This restaurant is located in 6 Ballygunge place itself. Hence, the name. The outer appearance gives you a traditional Bangaliyana look. This place is famous for its Bengali cuisine so starting from the outer appearance, foods, service, ambience, everything gives you bangaliyana feeling. After entering the restaurant, I felt as if I came into a Rajmahal. A total traditional Bengali ambience with a piece of Bengali music playing on the background. Beautiful decorations. Beautiful ambience. Loved the place so much. The staffs are so helpful and polite. They maintain proper hygiene. Their chair-table arrangements are mesmerizing. On the table, you will see there is a sanitizer and lemon-chilli served along with salt and beautifully decorated plates. Yes, the prices are a bit expensive but obviously, if you want awesome Bengali foods then the money is worth it. The foods are too good at quality-wise and quantity-wise. I went there on Christmas and they had Christmas special buffet. There are two floors in the restaurant. You can avail a buffet or a la carte, whichever you like. Their washroom is so beautifully decorated. The servicing is really good. In every way, I liked their restaurant so much. When it comes to having delicious Bengali foods, I would totally recommend you guys to visit here.Buffet : (Christmas Special)Drink: 1. Rose Syrup.Main Course: 2. Bokfuler Bora.3.

Visited this place few days back.. the authentic bengali cuisine is worth trying.. the quality and quantity were great.. the ambience was extremely cozy.. reasonable price..The staff were extremely courteous..
One of the most famous Bengali restaurants in Kolkata.This places serves Bengali cuisine at a very affordable rate.The ambience is pretty decent.The place can accommodate almost 50people at once.This place is almost like a fine dining restaurant but not that expensive.Coming to food,you can either opt for Ala-Carte or their famous thalis or for their buffet.I opted for the buffet.It was typical Bengali dinner,The buffet had:1)Luchi,Fulkopir Torkari,Aloo r Dum2)Bhetki maach er paturi(highly recommended)3)Gondhoraj Chicken(Starter)4)Potol Bhaja5)Steamed Rice6)Moong Daal7)Subz Pulao8)Mangshor Jhol(Mutton)9)Doi Murgir jhol 10)Chatni & Papad11)Misti Doi(Sweet Curd)12)Nolen Gur er Rosogolla.I would also recommend you to try out their ‘Gondhoraj Ghol’ which is not included in their buffet but it will imcrease you appetite to eat.Also,I’ll be back hear to try their thali & A-la-carte soon. 🙂
6 Ballygunge Place – 4/56 Ballygunge place was perhaps the best thing about my Kolkata stint (witnessing a match at Edens would have definitely topped it). Its the place to be – at least for a non-Bengali like me to appreciate and celebrate Bengali and Bangladeshi cuisine. After spending almost 10 mins thinking about what should we go for – A-la-carte or buffet, we took the hard decision of opting the former one. Justification? The top dishes which were suggested by different people and Zomato were missing in the buffet spread. Also, make sure you book a table beforehand because we had to wait for around 15 minutes before getting our table. Meanwhile, we gulped a few glasses of Thanda lemur sherbet. The setup of the place was really cool. Functioning as a restaurant converted from a bungalow (I am guessing that), it had elements that spelt vintage to us. It had a certain character in a similar manner the way Kolkata has it. Fried Fish – Trying a city’s famous street snack in an airconditioned space minus the hustle could have dwindled its joy but this dish transcended space. This spice-filled bread crumb coated crispy fish fillet i.e. Bhetki mach was an absolute joy. The mustard sauce dip elevated the entire experience. At the expense of missing out another dish, we repeated our order.Gondhoraj Chicken – Having no clue about this dish, we tried this on the waiter’s recommendation. And it was a complete surprise package. The shredded chicken oozed an outburst of flavours and the zing of the lime stood out for me. Please don’t skip it. Bhetki Paturi – It is a traditional preparation which involves wrapping a bhetki mach in banana leaf. The pungent taste of mustard worked beautifully here. We were suggested to try it with steamed rice. Though the combination was good, I felt it was comparatively dry to try it out with rice. Nevertheless, an amazing dish. Hongshoraaj – A mango drink with ginger and mint. Sounds interesting? Tastes amazing.Mishti Doi – Hands down the best Mishti Doi I have ever tried. And I believe it’s tough to beat this one.. . .In the end, the only regret I had was not having a big enough appetite to try out a couple of more dishes. Maybe next time. Maybe never. Good memories will keep fermenting in my mind until then.
One of my favourite places for dinner! This place serves authentic bengali food and the ambience goes nicely with the decor and the spread that this place offers. My all time favourite is mutton kosha and kishmis pulao. For starters I always go for dimer devil. Their aam pora shorbot and channar malpua are good too! A great place for family outing! Recommended surely.
