Must Try These Bengali Restaurants In Delhi

Bengali cuisine is a culinary style originating in Bengal, a region in the eastern part of the Indian subcontinent, which is now divided between Bangladesh and the Bangla state of India. Other regions, such as Tripura, and the Barak Valley region of Assam (in India) also have large native Bengali populations and share this cuisine. With an emphasis on fish, vegetables and lentils are served with rice as a staple diet.

1. Oh! CalcuttaOh! 

Oh! Calcutta has always been appealing. What we love about the buffet is the choice in main course. Elsewhere, you get so many starters that you have no space left for main course at all. Here the starters are limited - so you get to enjoy the curries most.

Hilsa Festival is the current promotion at their outlets and we got to try the best dishes they had on offer. The buffet has options from all courses as the bongs like it - bhaja, dal, posto, the meat, the sweets, the chutney. We loved the offerings as part of the special festival as well.
The start with Ilish Fish Fingers could have been a little better. The fish fingers were a little dry but with the accompaniment of kasundi, they were good to go. Mochar Ilish was the star dish - a preparation made with mocha and Ilish - the distinct taste of both the fish and the mocha made it a must have. Another dish we loved to the core was Aam Tel Ilish - the queen of fish marinated with the oil of pickle, cooked within a pumpkin leaf and served with a portion of rice cooked with same flavors - this one's another must have from the special menu. Ilish Bhaja comes with a fried piece and 2 portions of fish egg cutlets, alongwith the oil in which it was fried - this is how it is had traditionally and we loved the way of presenting - needless to say, there is nothing wrong that can go here.
You get a lot of variety in the curries section - Lal Lonkar Ilish - the fish cooked in a spicy, tangy curry made mainly using red chillies was a good one. Posto Narkel Ilish is a fav. among people who love the fish and it was made very well too - among all the curries this was our favorite. Fish Paturi is well made, but the presentation is different - we expected it to come wrapped in a banana leaf - but it came differently - although there was no compromise on the taste altogether.
Desserts have options from gurer payesh, bhapa sandesh and rosogulla to choose from among others.

2. Maa Tara, CR Park Market 2

Searching for Bengal vibes? Here it is. Maa Tara has always been one of my favourite. Amazing food. The quality of the food is well maintained. It is fresh and absolutely delicious. Delivery is on time always. The staff is polite. Recommended dishes- chicken kosha and rohu kalia.

3. Kolkata Biryani House, CR Park Market 1

Nice biriyani with the quintessential bengali touch at No.1 mkt CR Park. They serve decent portions too. They have grown over the last few years and the quality of food has go to do a lot with it. The eatery is well managed and is a favourite amongst bengali folks in CR Park and around. My favourite though are the rolls here. I find them the closest to the Kolkata variety and in my opinion the best in CR Park. Do try for some good lip smacking stuff. You wont be dissapointed.

4. Bijoli Grill

Name is lit "bijoli grill" a place where you can find the local benagli delicacies in the heart of the capital. The location is good but once you get inside the place you would find yourself in a early 80's canteen which would be a great place to come and dine in for all the benagli food lovers.. Ki khabo tales.....
Now let me speak about the menu all you see isn't true meaning everything isn't available there are items which are seasonal and there some items which are not reasonable by availability...
Food quality isn't good I have treated my self with authentic benagli dishes trust me they are taking the name down. Service is as good as a government office from "office office" but this is true some people are laid back.... Dada relax..
I couldn't try the thali but it seems that's the only thing for what people come here to savour untill I try the same I can't lie...

5. Hi Kolkata

Hi Kolkata royal ambience, polite and humble service staff and the culprit head.
While finding a place to eat Bengali seafood nearby got this option in zomato.
The ambience is superb and Royal. Value added by the extra ordinary service by the server. Amazing hospitality.
But you can't give your feedback here if you don't like any food item. You will be asked questions by the chef and in charge of the place like . Why u ordered and that to arrogantly.
Fish qaliya it was not at all eatable the gravy was not qaliya gravy and when we informed this to server then the mess happened with the 30 years experience 0% knowledge chef cum in charge.
