    If you are going for aesthetics, this place is not the one. But they serve delicious food at a very cheap rate. Their potions were okayish too. The place is kinda small and has gone old as well. It's pretty evident.

    Considering price , food quality is decent.. quantity a bit less but manageable.. only problem with managing staff , very rude and unethical behaviour.dont except that customer should listen to your excuse..more than that they told us that card machine not working ..u have to pay by card. This is really annoying. Last the ambience and maintenance part . Ambience is good but maintenance is at the last level. kitchen was damm dirty and washroom doesn't have water facility.... Overall very unsatisfactory experience .not recommended

    It is a good place for a hangout of 2-3 people. I went there because I heard that they serve combos for 149. But sadly they were not serving the combos. But all the dishes were of same price(149) except fish and it is enough for just 1person. The taste of the food was fine. Service was good. The place is quite cute. Maybe they can increase the quantity of the food. Otherwise a good place for a quick eat. We had hakka noodles(7/10), cashew and chilly fried rice (9/10), hot garlic chicken(a little spicy) (8/10), manchurian chicken(9/10).

    This place what we call love because whenever we need to celebrate anything with good food but we have short time in our hand and we afford only short celebration for that situation but memorable one we went here. It was third time when I by myself went there with my friends I didn't have that much of time due to my office schedule but I need to celebrate my boyfriends birthday with my friends because that was belated so any how I need to celebrate that I am so we went there once again together. They arranged the birthday cake to celebrate the birthday along with good food where we ordered started I think it was chicken drumstick then on main course chicken fried rice with chilli chicken and garlic chicken. Then we click some good pictures we made some funny memories and everything and some selfies. The ambience was so good as always but need a little improvement that's why I made 4 star out of 5 because over there we have to wait too long to get entered and the staffs are a little bit rude but okay not that much and if they add some music over there with good test not any one song played 4 to 5 Times continue but different good mood type songs then it will be better.

    We ordered cashew and chilli fried rice and premium chicken , though the rice was fine but the chicken wasn't upto the mark , there was no sign of chicken and was filled with flour and the outer coating was too much . I won't recommend to have the premium chicken .

    First and foremost this outlet has really hospitable people to give you the full comfort zone....those 2 table servers were really good to us.... they asked that "how was the food?" , " If there is any issue with food , we will change it."...We were really amazed with their behaviour.....now about the food... if I'm not wrong this restaurant is giving you the cheapest food with maintaining the quality....we ordered Drums of Shangdong which was finger licking good...then Honey and Sesame Prawn was sweet n spicy and quality of prawns was too fresh and soft....we took burnt garlic mixed rice in this we got a amazing aroma of garlic and paired with Hot Garlic Chicken which came with thin coated chicken and flavourful gravy. Price wise quantity was enough good. Planning to give treat or want to hangout with friends then please visit this place atleast once.

    A perfect place for hangout of 2-3 people.. they offer everything in 149 but the quantity is just enough for 1 person.. Dividing the dish will leave you with half full stomach. Some dishes are yumm and some are okay. Don't recommend it for big group hangouts, coz the seats are limited and the seats they provide are not durable.. BTW ambience wise amazing 👏😉 and if you wanna go out for a date with your gf, this place is totally for you😍

    Very poor quality of food. I think Street food is better than it. Vegetables were not boiled properly and chopped. Taste is awful .Then the ambience.. they should maintain the ambience and also should maintain cleanliness.

    Underdeveloped need to develop more. Price is not meeting facilities provided. Kindly consider these points 1. Proper menu card 2. Washroom 3. Basin 4. Should provide spoons as well as forks. 5. Competitive price.

    As per price the quantity is okay but the quality and taste is not acceptable. Even street side food is better than this and they used massive food color. Ambiance is also not up to the mark even though they didn't maintain proper hygiene.

    Budget friendly cafe. The food was tasty. Ambience wasn't bad. The 149 menu has a lot of items in it. Cafe is definitely worth visiting. 😋

  • 4/5 Ankita C. 2 years ago on Google
    This is a very small restaurant with only 21-24 covers. But this place is a bit trendy because of its name. The ambience is good. It is located in Ballygunge. For lunch, I ordered: • Taipai Fish • Drums of Hell • Schezwan Mixed Fried Rice • Honey and Sesame Chicken. A must try here is the Taipei Fish. It is so soft and crispy. Also, the chicken drums were crispy and juicy. The honey sesame chicken was too sweet and the fried rice wasn't that spicy as compared to schezwan spice. But there, washroom is too dirty with such a narrow passage. They don't even have a handwash near the washbasin. Overall, the food quality is good. But needs to improve more.

    The restaurant seriously need to change their managing stuffs. The quality of the food is quite good but the restaurant lacks proper maintenance. When we entered the restaurant all the tables and chairs were misplaced we had to tell their stuffs to turn the light on. No one was there to take the order in time or to take money when he finished. We had to come out after just having starters. I think the main attraction of the restaurant was the place with a clear roof. But we were not allowed to sit there because it had a table for 4 and we were only 2 people but there were not any customer present at that moment. Something is wrong with their stuffs and they need to change it asap or the restaurant will go down.

    For the price, the quantity and quality is amazing. The employees are also very polite. The interior design is such a subtle mixture of modern and daylight, with green plants, it gives a very cozy feeling off. All in all, a great place to enjoy food with family,friends, even colleagues.

    Food & services are very good. But after few minutes you will feel so suffocating as AC is not working. Should repair the AC fast.

  • 3/5 Pallabi R. 2 years ago on Google
    Food quantity small,, food is ok.. But no any candel is there like YouTuber's review.. Many dishes are not available there now. Overall good place..

  • 3/5 Suvadeep P. 1 year ago on Google
    I had a mixed experience at the budget-friendly restaurant with a good ambiance that you visited. While some of the starters tasted good, it's disappointing to hear that there wasn't much variety in flavors and that the Schezwan Chicken I ordered was the worst I've ever tasted.

  • 5/5 Bristi S. 1 year ago on Google
    Affordable,nice environment,taste was also good. But the the pieces of chilli chicken could be better.

    Very Tasty food in affordable price. We celebrated our birthday there, they were very helpful. Excellent service. Overall, I would love to visit again. They have a branch at New Town which is just as good as this one. I totally recommend this for a budget place to eat delicious food and hang out with friends.

    Its a worst place I had eaten literally. First of all the food it was served in a disposable thermocal plates, with a less quantity of food w.r.t the price , they didn't even served not a single spoon instead of which they served plastic forks. The maintenance was not good the A.C was not working, when we asked to sit inside they said that water was dropping inside because of rain. Neither had a proper menu card, with a cross marks on most of the dishes. Should atleast provide a decent washroom.

👍👍 Recently visited this place and trust me, it was worth every penny. The ambiance was great. We had Mutton Chello Kebab. The kebabs were very juicy and tender, I couldn't stop drooling! The egg yolk was runny and just perfect. The rice portion had a nice fresh smell and all together it was magical in...

😐 Simply come here for the atmosphere and history. Nothing should be eaten here. Cold coffee was a letdown. It was cold water that had been sweetened with a pinch of coffee. The fish kaviraji was satisfactory. Despite the fact that there is a no-smoking sign on the premises, I observed people smoking...
