As a Bengali, it’s difficult for me to express the joy at being able to partake in authentic, high quality Bengali cuisine in the US. Truly a memorable experience. The portions were very generous and great value for the price. The decor, presentation, and ambiance was excellent. We came for restaurant week and they ensured that they honored the spirit of it with all menu options mostly on offer. Looking at the regular menu I can certainly see myself coming back soon!!

I ordered the Butter Chicken curry and it was absolutely delicious! I had never tried Indian food before, but this restaurant made me fall in love with it. The staff were amazing — especially Zara and Wilmar. They were so kind and friendly, and made the experience even better. I’ll definitely come back if I get the chance

Had a great time here. Service was very nice and attentive, and the ambiance is cozy if a bit loud. The beguni was quite tasty, and the chicken biryani was great. The side of dal makhani was also very good and overall we loved everything we ordered. The only thing that missed was the mango rasmalai, since it had a bit too much of artificial mango flavour to it. Would come again and recommend it for gluten free and veggie options as well!

It is a beautiful restaurant with beautiful Indian decoration on the the walls. The ambience and food represent the beautiful Indian culture. Their food is amazing and absolutely delicious comfort food! When you dine in there, you will understand my point! I believe their price is fair comparing to other places in Brooklyn. Go and try. You will not regret!

The restaurant offers authentic Bengali cuisine with a distinct sweet undertone in most dishes. The flavors are well-balanced and tasty, truly capturing the essence of traditional Bengali food. However, the pricing is quite steep—for instance, the vegetarian thali we had was $38. While expensive, the quality of food was good. A reservation is required if you’re visiting for dinner, but since we went for brunch, we managed to get seats, though we had already made a reservation. A pleasant surprise was the complimentary dessert, which was a nice touch. Overall, it’s a good spot for Bengali flavors if you don’t mind the high prices

Absolutely delicious food with the true taste of Kolkata! Every dish is bursting with authentic Bengali flavors — from the perfectly spiced curries to the mouthwatering mishti. It genuinely feels like a comforting home-cooked meal from back in Kolkata. Highly recommend to anyone craving real Bengali cuisine!

Excellent service and even better food. The main chicken dish was wonderful. I found the goat a little dry, I would probably skip that dish next time. The chilli Gobi was out of this world. Very spicy, but worth it.
