Jagabandhu Hotel

Restaurant

👍👍 Very old building serving authentic Odia food. The mutton was very nice, with very well cooked pieces and tasty jhol. The building smelled of old grandparents homes, and was nostalgic. People often mention hotel, good, square, left, curry, taste,

    An old hotel inside famous ancient city of cuttack. Located behind a huge building so finding it might be tricky for someone traveling for the very first time. So if you are traveling from SB women's college towards Buxi Bazar square,then turn left from the square and after going 30-50 meters,you will see the board. Same time if you are traveling from barabati stadium,then take a right from cantonment square,continue and it meets the samaj office square and keep left to reach Buxi bazar square. If coming from college square,come straight on nuapatana road till tanishq showroom, then turn left to mastan road,continue left till you cross amareswar temole and after that 20-30 meters on the left is the hotel signboard. The biggest landmark would be Buxi bazar square,amareswar temple or fire station, Buxi bazar.There are others roads but bit confusing. Good thing is they put a neon light signboard that glows,easy to see in dark. Go straight through the board,a big building on the left,after building turn left and the hotel is there. Make sure to use your horn because only 1 bike can pass through the narrow road. Taking about the hotel,old style,old furniture,like the 70-80 era style hotel. But inside clean. Proceed straight to order counter to order or sit down on the wooden chair table. Food,decent food at affordable prices with decent taste. Not burning hole in your pocket. In Rs 50 you can get 1 plate curry and some rotis or even less. Give thus place a try if you want decent food at budget prices. But Dalda is used heavily in dishes which is obvious considering the price. Simple way to know, buyy any dish from any restaurant,especially those have little gravy,not dry like mix vegetables,chili gobi etc. Keep these in fridge overnight. If Dalda is used,next day when you take out,you will see thick layers around the dish. The little gravy has turned like wax because of Dalda

    Mutton curry is bland. Not like homestyle. It tasted more like in Dal or Stew. No potato in Curry. Didn't feel like having authentic odia mutton curry. Fish items are good.

    Go for Fish dishes you won't regret. Mutton curry was good but meat quality not upto mark, felt like old goat or female goat. Overall value for money place.

    The food and service is very good. I have dinner here almost everyday. Price is also reasonable. For students, who want to save some money on dinner and want good taste should visit this hotel once.

    Very old & famous place in Cuttack. Though they have old people to serve but their energy is not less than youngsters. Delicious, fast and reasonable price. Once you must visit the place if you are in Cuttack.

    One of the oldest Odia joint. If you are looking for some genuine home made type preparation at a reasonable rate, this is the place. Nothing fancy, but they are clean and hygienic. They provide good and fresh stuffs. 👍

    Tasty home style food. Too much crowd. You have to stay behind the chair to capture a seat. Need to check for the hygiene as well.

  • 4/5 A Free S. 2 years ago on Google
    They can improve the food quality a bit . I personally feel all the items taste a bit sweet and by the year the quality of food has been degraded. So i hope they consider about it in some near future.

👍 Modern cafe style restaurant with a nice ambience. Burgers looked great on the pic in the menu, but in reality it was not the same. Taste was ok ok. I would rate this place for the ambience only. It looks like there is live music as well. I'm sure, it will be lively then.

😠 Some people told me that it is one of the good place for biryani at Cuttack but I experienced very bad quality of food here . Waiters behaviour is also very poor . You will get a very bad smell inside the dining. You will just waste of your money and time both if you are trying to visit this place.
