Ambience is attractive. The restaurant is clean and well maintained. You can enjoy your food with a beautiful river view. We wanted to try their Aahare Bangali Aamish Thali but it was not available on weekends. So we ordered fresh lime soda, Kolkata style chicken Biryani, Mutton Kosha, Fried rice, non veg hakka noodles and Fried ice cream. Fresh lime soda was very bad and we hardly found any meat given in Mutton Kasha. It were 4 bones served with gravy. Other items were good. The fried ice cream was delicious. The price is a bit high but 2 people can easily eat one item ordered from the menu. Overall it is good.

Jalashree is one of the most beautiful restaurants in Hooghly District. It's a floating restaurant at Stand Ghat, Chandannagar. The air conditioner part is on a launch and free air part on a jetty. It's an amazing experience to spend time on the river. Good food, good ambience and good people. But, a little bit expensive.

Loved this place actually for the riverside ambience. I Prefered to sit outside for experiencing the environment and to spent time. And the food quality was okay whereas the prices were high compare to the food quality.

Amazing restaurant off Chandannagar Strand. Prices are a bit on the higher side. But the quality, quantity and ambience makes it worth every penny of it. Special mention to the ambience. While having food, you get an 180° view of the river. You can see the bank of Jagaddal on the other side. Great experience

The ambiance is the only attraction. This place needs a lot of improvements. Being a restaurant the primary focus must be on making the food taste really good. The food price is not justifying the taste. Overall it's a place you can visit once for the experience.

Atlast a evening time we visited the Riviére Habitat also known as Joloshree. This is the only fine dine floating restaurant on the river Ganges in Hooghly District. This sitting area has two parts. One indoor which is movable like luxury boat and another open air jetty. Ambiance was attractive. We had ordered Shami kebab, Crispy chilli garlic fish, Chicken burnt garlic fried rice, Fish in black pepper sause, hot garlic chicken and Darshan with ice-cream. All items were good to taste, worthy according to quantity and price. Staff's were professional and cordial. Overall good experience and recommend to all.

Tasty food , good ambience, nice location (by the river Ganges, unique experience. Good spot to celebrate anniversary/ birthday

Awesome experience… I went there with my wife on the eve of Christmas 2023. There was a little bit of rush during the afternoon. Although we got our table within 15-20min. We got table on the upper cabin. In one word the experience was awesome. Quality of food, service, ambiance everything is just perfect. One can get a feeling of flotel Kolkata hare. Price of food is a bit higher which is somewhat manageable for such a beautiful location.

Ambience is great. The view is excellent. Food is nice but a lot expensive according to the quantity which is why i have reduced one star. Another star is reduced for the ill habit of staff members which is they take away the dishes and glasses as soon as you have finished without waiting for the call. Otherwise a nice place to hang out if you want to enjoy a good view .

5/5- For the Ambience 5/5- For the service 5/5 - For the Food Deducting 1 star as I see there is a scope of improvement for the Veg menu, felt like it’s somewhat limited. Perfect place to hangout with Friends or Family, apt ambience for a Date as well.

The luxurious Joloshree floating restaurant in Chandannagar was inagurated by the Hon'ble Chief Minister of West Bengal, Mamata Banerjee. Historically the Ganga that flows by Chandannagar is witness to several battles, bloodshed and trading prowess of ancient Bengal. Planned and taken forward by the Department of Tourism, Government of West Bengal, the new Boat Restaurant, Joloshree, will thus remind of the rich cultural heritage of this area and of Bengal at large. It will be stationed at a jetty beside the historic Chandannagar Strand. A cultural collaboration and revival of the river in this region based on the idea of Heritage Cruise Tourism will add an advantage to this circuit. The restaurant boat is of 33 m length, 4.87 m in breadth and 1.40 m in depth. The engine is 160 P.S. with a speed of 6 knots. Around 48 persons can occupy the restaurant at a time and hence can be booked for small get togethers. We spent the New year Eve 2024 there. Let me tell you that it was an amazing experience. The service is very nice. And the food was good too but I think it's somewhat overpriced. The ambience of this place is just wow. Must go there.

We went yesterday. Food quality is good but quantity is very low. Ambience and stuffs behaviour are praiseworthy. The ship doesn't move everytime, moving time is uncertain.

Okay so for me this was the best experience ever. If you live in kolkata . I'll really suggest you to once visit Joloshree which is in Chandannagar strand road. Visited last day and the foods were mouthwatering. You can also enjoy the view of river Ganga from it. They serve you the fresh foods instantly and the staffs are so good at their behaviour . Want to visit again ❤️ Must try the wok tossed sesame spanich fish as a starter ❤️

A lovely restaurant on the Ganges with not very many seats… so if u go late be ready for long wait … as they do first come first serve after u go there .. no reservations are taken .. the food is terrific and if next level good .. it’s fresh and very very tasty .. spice levels are high so pls be warned .. the prices are a bit high but it’s totally worth it.. since it’s in chandonnnager we can spend a day strolling around after lunch and make a day of it ..

This floating restaurant on the river Hooghly is a great eating option while you are travelling through Chandannagore or the adjacent locations  . The following is my  experience at the restaurant ( Rating in a Scale of 5, 5 being highest):- A. Location : At Rani ghat, The Strand, Chandannagar.

Overall experience : Very  Good (Rating 4.)

Set up and arrangement is really great.We spent an evening and enjoyed sunset from there . Menu caters quite wide range of food. We ordered snacks ,sorbets. Taste ,portions was good. Sitting arrangements are available inside with AC as well as outside with open air ambience .Both has its own unique attraction. So,the food with feeling of floating in water vessel adds a different vibe there. Only thing I felt is the hospitality could have been a little better considering the standard of the place and the price they are asking. One of the reasons may be peak cloud period in weekend evening.

Visited here for the first time, We had a great experience here. It's feels unique to have a dinner while floating over Ganga river. You can either seat inside the AC hall or you can have your food in the open section outside. The restaurant looks really awesome at night with all the lights. But in the day time you can see water through the glasses while having your lunch. The food was average nothing special, but you should try it mainly because of the unique experience.

Food quality & quantity is very good. Testy delicious chicken currey I love it. Clean and clam floating restaurant.

Overall the restaurant is better than any other in spite of atmosphere. As this is a floating resturant in the river Ganges. You won't find another one like this apart from Kolkata. Food is satisfactory but on the pricey side. Atmosphere is totally awesome. Price worthy. Although they don't sail in the Ganges right now as before. If you're thinking about coming with family please don't hesitate. Overall good experience and worth the money.

Great atmosphere. Great view of the Ganga river from Joloshree. My only issue was we had to stand for more than 1 hr in ticket line to get into the Floating Restaurant.

A wonderful experience. A must visit for the ambience and the experience of eating food over the Ganga on a boat which moves sometime with the water flow. Also the food is great too.

I got to know about this place through one of my relatives and wanted to visit with my family. On a fine Sunday afternoon we reached there, route is very simple I stay in Barrackpore so one can take a train from barrackpore to jagadal station, from there one can hire toto or auto to the ghat, finally need to cross the river Ganga with the help of steamer or ferry. On the port you can see the restaurant. Staff over there were so welcoming and well mannerned, they helped us settel down and were continuosly checking on us if we need anything or not and also were informing us about the disshes. Food was delicious but I wasn't lucky enough to enjoy the restaurant sail in the river but my relative was. Staffs informed us that they don't have any fixed timing to sail in the water but it is mandatory in a day. But anyways environment, food and staff behaviour was perfect. I would highly recommend this place for family outing as well date nights. Please do visit .

The food was good enough, but there's a lot of other places you can go to, to get good food, but the thing that is supposed to make this restaurant special and unique, aka letting the diners get a good view of the river Ganga, is completely neglected.. they have chairs with their backs facing, the frosted, dirty windows that are supposed to give you a view of the river. Their whole setup is an absolute waste. Now talking about one of the features, which is a compulsion in all restaurants, hygiene, is something that they don't have. In the waiting area, if you look up at the ceiling, you'll see tens if not hundreds of flies, sitting in clumps; and if that's not disturbing enough, we had flies sitting on our cutlery as well....

Another classic example how a fantastic initiative is lagging behind because we don't care to keep our ganges clean...the shame is ours. Otherwise the floating restaurant experience is great, staff behaviour is amazing. But when you have a nice window side table and want to enjoy the amazing river view you see plastic bottles, shampoo sachets swimming by!!! We tried the cream of chicken soup which was great, the fried fish with spinach and sesame was not.I wanted a chicken roulade which was not available so had a baked fish with mama rosa sauce instead..which tasted just like lemon butter sauce so am not sure if they added one instead of the other.But quality of bekti fish was really nice. We paid INR1100 for three dishes. They have an extensive menu with chinese, Indian and continental fare. You first need to buy tickets from a makeshift counter which opens at 12noon for 50 bucks and this is adjusted with the bill if you choose to eat here. Ideal for a winter lunch, prime location so you can view the church, museum, walk along grand strand within 5 to 10 minutes from the restaurant.

Amidst the bank of the Hooghly river, this floating restaurant is one of its kind. One of the most noticeable aspects of this place is the sublime view of the river from the restaurant itself. Now coming to the food, really loved each and every dish I've had, especially the Ceaser Salad and the Mac N Cheese. The quantity as per the price point is absolutely worth. Hence, it's highly recommended to come here and experience the vibe.

The restaurant has been shifted 50mtrs from where it was before. Now, it has a dedicated ghat. On the weekends you might have to wait for 30 minutes. The food is tasty but costs too much. For a couple, 1200 is approx cost to fill your tummy. The ambience is the best thing here. The evening time is the most mesmerizing lighting.

It's a nice place. Especially the hospitality is great. Price is on higher side. Food quality is good. Variety of choice available.

It gives a different feel altogether to dine on the flowing water of ganga. Ambience is very classy and best in class in the locality. They have quite a lot of a unique dishes to offer, and whatever items I have tried have turned out to be just delicious.

Fantastic food, great ambience and hospitality. Loved every bit of it. Staff were nice and courteous. Quality and quantity of food need special mention. Overall, a definite visit.

A floating restaurant in Chandanagar, Rani Ghat. Food is good.

The location and the atmosphere is very good. One can enjoy the food in fresh gangetic breeze and the river view, there are enough ceiling fan in outside sitting area too so one can opt for outside sitting in summer too. There is option for indoor sitting too which is well decorated and air conditioned. Indoor sitting area is two storey one, it is a fixed boat like structure, having a anchor and ropes . The entry point is nice one, it is small bridge and fully illuminated. Outside sitting area is decorated with car tires and the napkin tray is unique one . Food quality could have been better. The quantity was good. Mutton biryani, and fried rice was very oily. No option for special biriyani so it is not shareable but quantity of rice was very large quantity. Seat booking needed for weekend visit.

This place is situated just opposite of Chandannagar Police Station. You can easily reach here. The view of the river flowing while dining is just wonderful. We had Lahori Murgh Tikka & Cajun Spiced Fish Fingers as starters. And for the main course we had Basanti Pulao, Mahi Tikka Butter Masala & Kadai Murgh. The food was really delicious and the ambience just added up to make it more memorable.

A floating restaurant on the banks of river Hooghly (Ganga). Very good ambience. Service is delayed. The taste of the food needs to improve.

Price too high... Atmosphere is nice but according to price it's not that much justified. Title: Floating Delight: A Unique Experience at the River Floating Restaurant, offers a unique dining experience that combines picturesque surroundings with delicious cuisine. While it presents a novel concept, my visit left me with mixed feelings, resulting in an average review. The setting of the floating restaurant is undeniably captivating. Gliding gently on the river's surface, it provides scenic views of the surrounding landscape. The tranquil waters and gentle breeze create a pleasant ambiance that adds to the dining experience. The menu at the restaurant offers a decent variety of dishes, showcasing local flavors and international cuisine. The quality of the food was generally satisfactory, with some dishes standing out more than others. However, the prices seemed slightly inflated considering the overall dining experience. Service at the floating restaurant was a mixed bag. While the staff was friendly and attentive, the waiting times for both taking orders and receiving food were longer than expected. Additionally, some aspects of the restaurant's infrastructure, such as seating arrangements and table cleanliness, could benefit from improvement. The novelty of dining on a floating restaurant is undoubtedly an appealing aspect. However, it's important to manage expectations, as the experience may be hindered by factors like weather conditions or crowdedness during peak hours. In summary, the river floating restaurant offers a unique dining experience with scenic views and satisfactory food. However, there is room for improvement in terms of service efficiency and overall value for money. If you're seeking an unusual dining experience and are willing to overlook some drawbacks, it's worth giving it a try.

I heard about the place long back but recently visited there all of a sudden. I just loved the ambience and due to festive season it was well decorated. I had my all time favorite 🐟 (fish and chips) 🍟 with Cold coffee and a Mojito.. Price is on the higher side I must say, but fish and chips taste was good, the fish was fresh. But I was disappointed with my coffee. It was bland. The service was nice 👌. Another disheartening thing is that it doesn't have a fixed timing to float around. I feel they should have a fixed timing to float around. As i am paying the same amount and not getting to enjoy a ride whereas some other person is getting an exclusive experience. Authority should look into this matter.

Located very near to the Chandanagore ferry ghat and The Strand, the ambience of the restaurant is excellent. As we went there after attending an invitation in the afternoon, we only had freshly brewed coffee which was served with some delicious cookies. The ambience of the restaurant is excellent and with a good view of ganges. It is a must visit place for romantic couples especially in the evenings. We would definitely taste other available items next time we visit the restaurant and provide review of the same.

Awesome ambience on that river Ganges..... warm reception.... tasty foods...Fish orly awesome..and mouthwatering

Floating restaurant 😁, nestled on the banks of the Ganges(Hooghly river) . It specialises in Bengali and Chinese cousins. The decor is elegant along with calming and peaceful ambience 😇☺️ . The interior decoration is modern and the system of menu card viewing is very unique (digital menu card) . It feels unique to have a meal while floating over river Ganges , you can either sit inside of the AC hall or you can have your food in the open section outside. I sat inside the AC hall and enjoyed my meal (yummy veg hakka noodles along with Shanghai style fish 😋😋) and also enjoyed the water side view through the glasses while eating 😍😍 . The food was good in taste but nothing so special but you should try at least once for the unique experience 😁

All Ok. But waiting time is so so so so so so sooooo long 🥴

Visited this restaurant many a times ...the taste and quality of the food are quite recommended. Fish Orly (highly recommended) Aampora sorbet,gondoraj mangsho,basanti pulao,kancha lonka murgi,prawn curry ,fried icecream,pudding .

Food and ambience is excellent, behavior of the stuffs are also very polite. Overall it is a nice experience.

The dishes were delicious, the atmosphere was fantastic, and Miss Nomita's hospitality was the icing on the cake. We truly enjoyed our lunch there. I highly recommend trying the kasundi mahi tikka—thanks again to Nomita for suggesting it to us!

It was wonderful experience... The food is really good

Located just beside Chandannagar Ferry Ghat , Joloshree is a houseboat restaurant on Hoogly river. The ambience is awesome, service is quick , the quality & quantity of the items are very good & sufficient respectively. ✓ Schezwan Chicken (9/10) ✓ Chicken Hakka Noodles (8/10) ✓ Chilli Chicken (8/10) ✓ Brownie with Ice Cream (10/10) The pricing is reasonable to an extent. There is an entry fee of 50/- , which gets adjusted with the final bill. Overall a good place to visit.

Absolutely amazing experience,,, undoubtedly it is best floating restaurant not only in hooghly also in Kolkata

Food quality and quantity was good, but service was bad. Took a lot of time to get the food and the wait time is above than normal. Try to sit on the lower deck
