Best Bengali food outside Kolkata
Even in a mall setting, the food is authentic. The Mutton Kosha and Doi Maach are outstanding. The mishti doi is a perfect ending.

Authentic Bengali flavors
The Kosha Mangsho and Bhetki Paturi are excellent. The Aloo Posto brought back childhood memories. Great place for Bengali food lovers.
Great Kolkata institution
The Mutton Chop and Chicken Cutlet are legendary. The beer is cold and the atmosphere is lively. A must-visit in Kolkata.
