When visiting Kalimpong, you simply cannot afford to miss dining in this astounding Bhutanese restaurant, which is one of the very BEST in this hill station. Right from the quality to the quantity everything that they serve here is unparalleled.👍🏻

Location: About 10mins walk from the main market, on the road towards Siliguri. Ambience: Simply decorated, large tables and floor tables, large windows overlooking the mountains. Service: Was quite prompt. However, the lady taking orders was not good in English so difficult to understand the dishes. Filtered drinking water available. Ordered: * Itshum (Bhutanese Red Rice): Rs 100. Slightly sticky rice, small grains, good to taste. * Langsha Juma (Beef Sausages): Rs 250. Sausages cut into small pieces and sautéed with onions tomatoes, mildly spicy, excellent taste. * Kewa Datshi (Potato with Cheese): Rs 120. Fabulous taste, slices of boiled potatoes simmered in a cheesy broth. Overall, highly recommended!

This place has a wonderful vibe. Love the food here. Ate to my heart's content. Amazing quality and quantity of food here. Out of the 3 days in Kalimpong, i ate here 4 times. They also play some videos of Bhutanese culture. So nice and soothing as well. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Best food in kalimpong en route to Gangtok from Baghdogra. Exactly midway on the highway. Limited menu options but good wholesome healthy food. Very lightly spiced so good for traveller's tummy. Note : Lunch is only buffet. No a la carte during lunch hours.

Read reviews about Za Khang, and went to try out the Bhutanese cuisine for the first time in my life. It's a nice, cosy place about few minutes walk from the Kalimpong main market chowk (next to the police station). It's usually not too crowded, especially if you are going in the evening. They serve a veg/non-veg buffet spread during the day, but I went for ala carte as it was already supper time. As the recommendation from the owner aunty, I ordered boiled rice with dried pork ema datshi. It was very flavorful and the umami of the dried pork in local cheese datshi was amazing. Pocket pinch is reasonable, so if you want to explore typical Bhutanese food in Kalimpong, then Za Khang is the place to go. 5/5

Superb Bhutanese food.... U should try all the items... It is a lunch buffet and you have variety of dishes Ema datshi,kewa datshi, gondo datshi are some i remember..;p dishes are made with cheese and are very light to the tummy. U get ala carte apart from the buffet . You can try thupka.. dry/ with soup

I have been to Bhutan and loved the food there. I was very excited to visit this place as I was expecting the same quality but I was disappointed. To my surprise, it was empty during lunch time. It's on the first floor, with a nice view of the valley. The seating is neat with decor inspired by Bhutanese culture. You only get Bhutanese food here so don't expect any Indian food. I wanted to try a lot of things, but they said they serve those only on weekends. The butter tea and the pork soup were very nice. But the main course of chicken Datshi was a downer, it was too sour and the flavor of the chillies was underwhelming. The egg Datshi was a little dry. What irked me was the coldness and indifference of the staff and the owner. A smile is not too much to ask for.

Great food at very reasonable prices. Excellent vibes and views. So try the salted butter tea as an appetiser - you won’t regret. Most pork and chicken dishes are good here, to go with red rice. A must place to visit if you’re looking for authentic Bhutanese food.

This is a eatery joint run by a bhutia family. Amazing food. Loved the simplicity. The buffet was very fulfilling with amazing taste. Decor is very pleasant with great mountain views from the window

My first time trying out Bhutanese cuisine. Glad I visited this place. They didn't have the buffet when I visited so ordered a la carte. Pork rice (forgot what it's called in Bhutanese) was amazing and bursting with flavour.ost of dishes sounded alien to me but the server was helpful and explained the dishes patiently to me. Next time I'm in Kalimpong, I will definitely go here for the buffet.

Enjoy the mouthwateing dishes of appetite.

I chose ZA KHANG for lunch, which offered a breathtaking view of Kanchenjunga from their rooftop dining space. The restaurant specialises in Bhutanese Cuisine. I tasted Sikam Ema Datshi (Dried Pork with Cheese) [which was hands-down the best Pork dish that I've ever tasted ❤️] accompanied by Khulu (Buckwheat Pancakes) and Ezey (Chilli Paste). It was such a satisfying experience!

It really do serve authentic Bhutanese cuisine..you can also go for rooftop view or dine in the restaurant. Buffet will be the best option if trying for the first time.

5 star is lesser for this Restaurant. It is one of those restaurants which should not be missed if you visiting Kalimpong. Hospitality is Suparb. Ambience of rooftop restaurant with mountain view is just jaw dropping. All ingredients aka water even imported From Bhutan . Here food is not only served .. it got touch of enriched Bhutanese culture. I am thankful to Monika (the hostess helped us) for making our visit memorable for life time.

Fell in love woth the cozy Bhutanese restaurant. Came with a lot of recommendation from the locals and met upto all of the expectations. The staff is very warm and friendly and they explained the food to me well. Absolutely loved the Ema Datshi and the glass noodles. If you like spice, ask for the Chili pickles they are delicious. . I also tried dried beetroot leaves and they ar chewey but as you chew them they yield a lot of flavor. Very unique dining experience.

Seconding all of the previous positive reviews. The serene and lush green of rain-drenched hills is visible through the big windows.

The wanton soup here is must try! :)

You may have difficulty in finding it as one needs to first identify the building and then walk straight up to the fourth floor. But the food and the behaviour from the staff will make up for that. A must-visit when in Kalimpong.

Excellent atmosphere, excellent cuisine. True Bhutan at its finest.

Traditional restaurant

Very yummy food served within very short time, when we all 6 were so hungry after a hectic travel.

Good view of city...food is good as well

Wow view of city is awesome......nice place

Taste in every bite

Ok

Hated it

Nice place

Some of the best Chinese food I've had. Fantastic experience.

Its very neat and clean place view was great,we had pork noodle with soup and chicken chowmin its very delisious ..thanks to that little boy who surve food for us very gentle he was...overall its good..must visit dear readers.

Wonderful food, reasonable price quick execution. Overall a wonderful experiment. Only difficulty I faced was to find the place as it is in third floor of a building. Suggestion: look upward to find the place.

Very authentic hakka dishes. The food here is simply amazing and give me a sense of nostalgia since the taste is what I had when I was a kid growing up in a hakka family.

(Translated by Google) Restaurant with very rich food. A quiet and pleasant place, although the entrance is not very attractive. (Original) Restaurante con comida muy rica. Un local tranquilo y agradable, aunque la entrada no sea muy vistosa.

Food is good...good view of the city..pork dishes are great to have, try pork ribs its awesome, roasted pork was not that good overall a great place to have chinese dishes...washroom is very poor

Nice and cosy place with awesome sceneries of kalimpong city.best place to have pocket friendly authentic chinese dishes.

Small, cosy and comfortable place. Food is awesome. You should ask to use less oil. Very nice staff and owner. A real gem.

This is an absolutely amazing place. Small and comfortable with a friendly staff. We had Annie, the proprietor, suggest dishes for us, and I would suggest that rather than me telling you what to try there, try having them suggest what you should have, I'm sure you will be rewarded. Go visit, it will be worth your while

It's open.... Just had lunch there... The Chinese thali..... A must try...

Bhutanese food is really good in Zha Khang. This is a nice, clean and good restaurant. Too bad, we didn’t know they have rooftop, where the view of Kanhchanjunga would be majestic. The server was friendly and efficient. Excellent restaurant!

We ordered Veg Chowmein with Bhutanese sauce and Pork Stew. Exceptional food, great view and totally worth the consistently high rating the place has.

For someone who has been Living the food of Kolkata, Less Spicy and Less Masala might affect a Little Bit. The Food was well prepared, the Bhutan culture I guess has less masala to it which is why their skin is so good. I love Pork but dont think I could have gone for more of it here. Loved the Chicken, Red Rice and the rest of the Food in the Menu.

Authentic Bhutanese cuisine is offered here. If you are into good food with lovely view and pocket friendly restaurant then this is your must visit place in Kalimpong. You get variety of items with chicken, pork, beef Red rice if stocks are there Hand cut noodles Many tasty veg items where cheese and cottage cheese are the important ingredient used is offered here. All in all a full stomach with happy taste buds is gurantee. Go check it out for yourself.

One of the go to places in Kalimpong for dining out. We tried- Non Veg Mixed Thukpa Ngongow, Sikam Ema Datshi (Dried Pork with Cheese), Phaksa Pa(Stewed Pork) along with Khulu (Buckwheat Pancakes). Great Ambience, great food. must try!

Good place for bhutanese food, parking space available

Authentic Bhutanese food. Really tasty.. spicy.. cheesey.. lovely food..nice ambiance and pocket friendly buffet.

Not given buffet as promised exhausted food still charged full

Authentic Bhutanese Restaurant, but tastes are little bit dull. It must be acquired taste. Thukpa was really nice . And red chilli paste was spicey like fire.

Beautiful taste of Bhutan

Absolutely mouth watering Bhutanese dish..especially Sikampa which is basically a dried pork in selected spices. The ambience was soothing and they made special efforts to serve delicious veg dishes. Absolutely recommended restaurant in Kalimpong.

The ambience is just wow! The food is delicious😋

Its really great 👍

Lovely food and great service

My first experience of eating Bhutanese food was day Za Khang and trust me it's the best place to get a complete experience of what Bhutanese food is all about. The family serving at the restaurant is extremely warm and were kind enough to explain about each dish. They also have a buffet spread which is great for a newbie like me who has no idea about Bhutanese food. I tried everything veg and non veg and the food was fresh and excellent. The cusine is a delight for meat, cheese and butter lovers. Must try their Buffet!

average place

This is an amazing Bhutanese restaurant serving great food in the heart of Kalimpong. There's both regular table and chairs seating as well as seating on mattresses on the floor. When I visited on an evening in Mar 2020, they had a great buffet spread for just 299 which included red and white rice, chicken curry, pork stir fry, dry thukpa noodles as well as Bhutanese delicacies such as ema datsi etc. I would highly recommend every visitor to Kalimpong to try this!

Good food, great service and very warm and hospitable owners

A must go restaurant of Kalimpong, where you can find unlimited buffet in very reasonable rate. Pork, chicken, rice, noodles dishes are available here. Sitting arrangements are quite unique and you can have the view of majestic mountains from massive windows.

Great food..great ambiance.

Amazing food. Situated at the right place at kalimpong. You get parking at the location which is like a blessing. We had buffet and liked it very much. Will visit again if traveling to kalimpong.

Wonderful service , come here to enjoy authentic Bhutanese food , with friendly staff and , the only difficulty was no UPI or Card transaction but very accommodating staff

Buffet : v few options. V low quality pork, only pork fat. Made me sick. V low quality chicken and tasteless. Very hyped

Only go if you want Bhutan taste, not "taste".

Loved it

Super delicious food👍

Best place for Bhutanese cuisine in Kalimpong, West Bengal. 100/100

The restaurants is really nice for authentic Bhutanese cuisines. The staffs are really well behaved and the owners are also very welcoming. They are originally from Thimphu. We chatted for a while about Bhutan and believe me they are more than happy to share their knowledge about their culture. Thank you very much for hosting us🙏 We really had an amazing lunch in your restaurant😊

A buffet of veg and Non veg heavy proportions. Authentic feel. Acquired taste for some. Must try.

It's super bad... quantity is very less and quality is horrible..felt like puking on first tasting.

Za Khang is an authentic Bhutanese restaurant. It has a rooftop experience centre and that is beautiful with a Kanchenjunga view. The food is good. But the sides are really small in quantity and I would recommend two sides for one portion of rice. But the homemade cheese and an expert culinary skill makes this restaurant a gem of a place. A must visit if you are a foodie and are looking for authentic Bhutanese dishes. They also serve beef and pork.
