    One of the best place for a pocket friendly budget food in Howrah. This place literally makes food worth value for money. The staffs here are very informative and polite and friendly. The quantity of food is also sufficient. The taste is good without any doubt. You will find a bit queue while getting the table on weekends. We ordered Chicken Tandoori Full which tasted good with generous amount of chicken in it. And in main course, Mixed Fried rice, Egg Chicken Fried Rice, Mixed Noodles, Hongkong Chicken and Chicken Manchurian all of them tasted finger licking which was so good at that price. Moreover, a must try when budget is a bit low but a satisfying meal.

    The price, taste and quantity all are good. I don't think there is any restaurant in this area that can give food at this price. Ambiance is not too good. In one line this restaurant is not good for selfies which is also an important part. But quality I believe you will not be disappointed. Value for money

  • 4/5 sandhya p. 2 years ago on Google
    Tasty food available in reasonable price But little bit sanitation problem

  • 2/5 Kalyan P. 2 years ago on Google
    - Little bit costly than quality. - Too much spicy like street food. - No special grade raw material. - Low light so that you cannot point out dirt present in food utensils served. - Very Narrow stair. Resturent in mezzanine. - You have to pay tips to waiter. Else your next resturent order will be delayed. + good merrymaking place for romance.

    Tasty food at affordable price

  • 3/5 Somnath S. 3 years ago on Google
    Well known and old resturant in good location at Danesh sk. Lane more. Neat and clean resturant. Food quality of medium standard. I ordered mix fried rice, but requires magnified glass to found chiken and prwan. Chili fish tastes good. Overall there is much scope for improvement in food quality and quantity.

    Worst place every food is extremely bad only the room is okay and I think they were serving the left over food to the costomers. If u found any place worser than this then you change my name. If you don't believe go there to check it and waste your money

  • 4/5 Sneha M. 3 years ago on Google
    This is a really good and pocket friendly place of you want to have lunch/dinner. Food here is really tasty and up to the mark. However after lockdown period they have compensated on the quantity and quality of the food but that is almost negligible. So do visit the place if you want a nice cozy place with good food

  • 3/5 Divyangshu M. 2 years ago on Google
    It's a nice and affordable restaurant for a dine out with friends and family for any casual occasions, the food taste and quality Is good, service is appreciable!! I have visited here several time but one dish chicken lollipop disappointed me a lot it had no chicken just corn flour and not juicy at all other than that rest all dishes are almost OK!!

    1) people of the restaurant are very polite and good behavior, they have always a smile on their face. 2) good parking space 3) good place with family 4) Food quality is 3 out of 5. 6) a little space problem if you go with 6 people

  • 4/5 Rishi kant V. 1 year ago on Google
    We ordered there 2 fried rice, 2paneer chilli, and 4 chicken biryani. Taste was really delicious and scrumptious. Behaviour of staffs was also awesome, better than many places. Everything was good. In this area this restaurant is one of the best in budget.

  • 4/5 Jehan Nozer T. 1 year ago on Google
    So me and my friends dropped by here to try the food as it was his last day in Kolkata. It was strongly recommended by our firend and the priority was it should not be so far from IIEST, Shibpur. Venue/Ambiance 3/5 the décor is okay, nice plaster of paris statues.... needs to be a bit more clean... I would say. Main course: 5/5 Schezwan Chicken Veg Manchurian Handi paneer Chicken Tikka Masala Veg Fried Rice Butter Naan Butter Roti So we all agreed that the food was good and definately above par from the rest of the places we visited in Howrah. The dishes had all the right ingredients ... kasturi methi in the Chic. Tikka Masala etc. ..... The only issue is the pieces didnt feel like it was made in a Tandoor and the same was felt in the Paneer ... In paneer the pieces are very large .... Overall great food. The servers were very nice, polite and service is great. So Overall really nice place and definately returning for more.

  • 4/5 Ranjit D. 1 year ago on Google
    It is located in the prime location at Danesh Sheik Lane Bus stop, Howrah on Andul Road. All types of foods are available here from morning to night. Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner. Food quality is moderate, resturant atmosphere is well. It is a family restaurant. Bachelors also can hang out. There is no bar and availability of hot drinks.

  • 5/5 Sumon P. 1 year ago on Google
    Visited with family in 18th Dec. Food quality is awesome, price is also reasonable. Service was quick and staff behaviour was also good. Washroom could have been better but overall a good experience and whoever visiting Botanical garden can try this restaurant

  • 1/5 RONY'S LIFE L. 1 year ago on Google
    Extremely rough behavior with customers! They're so unprofessional I'm also a hotelier that's why I'm saying it they don't even know how to talk to customers and don't know how to talk to a girl.. Food was okay not so impressive but service is everything they need to be trained!!

  • 2/5 RAJAN M. 5 months ago on Google
    First of all it's too congested, space is too small. And briyani was not good. They have added more coconut oil and some smells. Only paneer was good. Even the staff is not responding properly after serving the food.

  • 4/5 Sankar Chakraborty (. 7 months ago on Google
    Visited this small but beautiful two storied resturant after visiting the botanic garden of India. This restuarant located exactly at the centre point of Danesh Seikh Lane bus stand. We tried Penguin special mixed fried rice and a gravy chicken item as side dish. The penguin special rice was full of prawns, chicken, mushroom and eggs. Also the chicken gravy items were so delicious contains 8 equal pieces of tender and juicy chicken. The most important part was the behaviour of the staffs who were too good in nature. If you visit this location, then you may try this place.

  • 4/5 Surajit Ghosh D. 3 years ago on Google

    One of the oldest budget restaurants in Howrah, Danesh Sheikh Lane. The food quality and the taste is good. Though with the passing time it is not coping up, but I would definitely reccommend it the modern gen x. You must try the Chicken Do Piazza.. The Polao and Navaratna korma and Mutton items are really good.
