Taj - Kolkata (Calcutta)

We are order Mutton biriyani(130/ =1pec small mutton+1prc aloo...bt tasty...bt quantity ok...sufficient people....Ambience normal...a/c...Price is reasonable.....Settings arrangement 20 people....

The place is very unhygienic n shabby... The tables are sticky... Uncleand floor n glasses... But still I'm giving it a 3.5 only because of the staff behavior and for the awesome tasty biriyani they had served... Pocket pinch is also moderate... I will recommend for take away rather having the food there...

The hidden gem in rajabazar area Taj restaurant. Once you enter keshab sen st from rajabazar crossing towards Amherst st, after a few minutes of walk, it’ll come on your right side. Please DO NOT TAKE YOUR CAR (though 2 wheeler is fine), forget about hygiene (though I’ve never been sick while eating here from last 10+ years) and get in. You’ll find a true kolkata styled biryani. Though on a bad day, it tends to get a little spicy, but with long grains of rice and one big, soft, fatty meat piece and potato (might be avoided), hardly anything can go wrong. In the breakfast, they make a fantastic mutton korma also. Anyway, coming back to the biryani, I would suggest a full meal here (again, forget about hygiene) Start with a piece of chicken fry. 25 30 for a big drumstick marinated in some strange chicken 65 like masala and deep fried and served to your plate immediately doesn’t sound like a bad deal to me. The next item should be their special mutton biryani with one extra potato piece (because you’ll take your friend along right) followed by their chicken korma kassa and 1 tandoori roti each. Trust me, you won’t regret. I guess, you’re not expecting any fancy seating and service. They boast of an AC, but its mostly non working. Go there, I don’t think you’ll regret.

Most of the persons have no idea about the restaurant and the location. It is near to Rajabazar. You will get biriyani having good taste and quantity. No complaints about the rate. I the quality they give must deserve better rate. The chicken tandoori and Chaps are delicious too. You can't find such quality cheaper than this restaurant. If you have low budget and bulk quantity to order, Taj is a good choice. I took biriyani no of times to my home and a single plate is actually enough for me. Low budget plus good taste take this restaurant to a level.

Cheap nd good tasting nonveg food if u r looking for..This place is actually what u must try..The chiken chanp is what u should try itz really delicious..
