    This is one of the few spots in Bay Area where you can get Bengali cuisine . Have been here 2 or 3 times . Food is good but I don't like their presentation . They use paper plates, bowls etc which I am not fond of . We have ordered Kolkata mutton biryani from here before and they served it on paper plates which killed my appetite to some extent. They have special buffet menu during jamai sosthi for which price was $25.99 and again I was not impressed by the presentation. Regarding taste, I am most fond of their mutton biryani and vegetable chop. Mishti doi and gurer Rosogolla were not as good as I had from some other places . The outside of the restaurant is also not appealing. It looks like you are getting inside some kinda grocery store. There isn't ample parking but to be fair I didn't have issues in finding one ever . The stars are all for food taste and the owner who is friendly. I would rather get a pick up order and have it in my home than sitting and having the food there.

    Jhal Muri

    I am glad we gave this place a try! This place looks average, but the food is far above average. It's really good. We ordered the veg puff, vegetable cutlet, jhal muri, mishti doi, panipuri/puchka and egg roll. Everything was great. Must try. The service was quick too, hardly 5 min wait. The place was not fancy but clean.

    Quick friendly service, great food and flavors. Their Manchurian is quite good - small portions but hits the mark. Like the ginger flavor on it. Simple ambiance - nothing fancy.

    A hole in the wall place if you are craving the Kolkata taste. Ambience was average - quiet for a Sunday morning with not too many people Service - counter service, but a bit slow. Had to request for my kokum sharbat twice. Food (3/5) - while good, I wasn't blown away. Fuchka was a bit spice for me but was what it was meant to be Cutlet - this one disappointed. The cutlet itself had no flavor till you used the mustard dip Bhugni - was nice but perhaps a side of green and tamarind chutneys would have helped Kokum sarbat- this one blew me away! Flavourful with enough sweetness. Order this!

    Updated review and they've improved significantly! They added a lot more options to their menu, including classic indo-chinese items, and the food is still incredibly tasty! This time my mom and I tried the jhal muri, egg puff, chicken egg roll, normal egg roll, paneer big belly sandwich, and the gobi manchurian. The jhal muri was classic and good way to start the meal! The egg puff was also very yummy and the pastry was flaky and fresh. The chicken egg roll is bomb as always and the paneer sandwich was also tasty. The gobi manchurian was so fresh and crispy, and they don't use food coloring! I noticed they also have mishti doi but didn't try it this time, look forward to coming back soon and trying more items!

    Food was okay! I didn't order chaat so I really can't comment on that. I ordered noodles, didn't realize it was thin ones not the Hakka noodles. Taste was good. Service was good. The guy answered all the questions. He was right about the sweet dish made by the owner. It was very yummy. It was like milk cake but different for sure.

    A hole in the wall that probably can go unnoticed unless you have intentions to eat one of the best ever Jhal Muri or Rassgulla (especially Nolen Gurer kind) . Parking can get pretty tight and you might have to resort to street parking at times. It was not very crowded at the time and we got ourselves settled on a table close to the counter. We were a group of 4 and ordered quite a few items to get a taste of the variety that they have to offer. We started with 2 orders of Jhal Muri and an order of Dahu Phuhcka , Calcutta egg roll and masala tea. Perfect starters that are well balanced in taste and are made with a blend of mustard oil (for Jhal Muri especially) that lends to its amazing and authentic taste. Probably the best Jhalmuri that we have had till date and that Mustard oil definitely made it taste great. For the dinner part we ordered kadhai paneer , goat curry and veg biryani with a few garlic naans. All items tasted good and well presented. Adding gold to glory was the Rassgulla that is an absolute recommendation if you happen to be around.

    Egg Puff
    Arvind S.

    Been here twice, a year apart. Found it for the first time while coming back from Sierra Vista. A new chaat shop is always exciting lol. Haven't seen a Calcutta based restaurant in the South Bat before so it definitely adds a different profile. I did look through a few of the reviews before ordering my food. - Veg Cutlet: Crispy, authentic, and delicious. As others have pointed out, it has beetroot, and they separates it from what you might get in other places. I love my Curlet with beetroot. Wish it was a little bigger for the 8 dollar price and because it tastes really good. - Egg Puff: I ordered it purely because it had an interesting shape (in picture) when compared to the chicken/paneer/veg. It was because there was a whole egg inside. That is authentic too. Not all places make it this way. Flaky and nicely made but a tad bland in terms of masala, I'd have liked some more. - Kolkata style Chicken Biryani: I would like to say I knew what to expect because I've had the Bengali style Chicken Biryani before. Actually I've had the Bangladeshi style. It's sort of mild in terms of its spice but it does have the flavor profile of the dum biryani cooked in chicken which I like. The basmati rice and saffron flavor also shines through. I am generally not the biggest dum Biryani chicken because it is usually not cooked properly but I must say the chicken was fantastic in this, very well cooked. It had a potato with skin which added to the dish. Portion was huge, I could only finish half of it in person. Might not be to everyone's liking, but I'd order again. I wish they had added caramelized onions instead of raw onions though. - Paneer Big Belly Sandwich: This to me was very ok, could've done with more flavor/sauce/spice according to me and was bland. It is probably authentic as well though, I am not sure. - Ghughni Pav - Nice Ghughni. I've had Ghughni, in its name once before (actually from a chef who's from Orissa) and this Ghughni was good for sure. The peas was well cooked and blended. Towards the mild side. - Calcutta Street King Egg Roll: This was a dish I was slightly disappointed with probably because it had too many veggies for me. It's actually a Paratha coated with egg rather than with eggs/egg pieces inside. So I'd prefer more eggs here. Also a little too strong on the mustard flavor for me. Might be authentic, but I was not the biggest fan. There are dishes that I really liked so I would personally stick to them from next time. There is a mustard flavor in a lot of dishes (also mustard sauce on the side in some) so if you don't like mustard maybe you can ask them to keep it a little lower profile, without removing the authenticity of the dish. 4 stars overall given my liking for most of the dishes that I had. They are definitely pocket friendly overall! It's a bakery with a grocery store/halal meal shop next door so maybe ambiance is not something they care about, which is fair. But they have a decent amount of space and restaurant style dishes so maybe they could consider investing in more of a restaurant feel and proper plates. Food is currently served in paper plates and cutlery and napkins are self serve. Food comes out pretty quickly and definitely felt fresh! Owner was pretty friendly with us and proud of the food they serve.

    Misti doi

    I'm happy to share that we finally found authentic bengali food in the Bay Area. The spices, the aromas, and the flavors of almost everything we tried were authentic and true to my husband's bengali roots. The phuchka pani was salty and tart just like it should be, and the alu filling was great. It was a great chaat experience. The vegetable chop was delicious and full of beetroots, and the flavor was impeccable! It was served with kashundi and ketchup. The salad it came with was a nice touch. The jhal muri was amazing with a strong hint of mustard oil. It was just perfect! The shingara was nice as well. My husband wanted it to be a bit more salty, but I loved the texture and the filling. We took chicken biryani and misti doi to-go, and they were both amazing! Chicken biryani had a drum and a thigh with a medium-sized potato. It came with mildly salted raita. It wasn't spicy at all, and there were strong hints of kewra in every bite. We enjoyed our biryani and misti doi as it was very different and flavorful. The alu puff was tasty, too! It had nice stuffing and reminded me of my college days in India. The chicken puff, however, was very disappointing with practically no filling inside and flavorless entirely but still a nice snack if you're someone like me who likes to eat puffs with ketchup. We'll be back to try their other dishes and can't wait to tey their fish fry. This is a local restaurant, and the chef is very clearly inclined towards serving authentic bengali food. The flavors are amazing, and I wish them good luck. Can't wait to see this place grow :)

    Puffs! (1 chicken & 1 veg)
    Kathleen L.

    This review is based on the two pastries I got. My boyfriend and I were craving a snack and Calcutta Chaat & Bakery popped up on my Yelp. We came in and just ordered two puffs (Chicken & Veggie). The pastries were buttery and flaky! We actually loved the veggie one a lot more than the chicken. We're not vegetarian, but the veggie one had so much more flavor! I'd like to try more snacks from here.

    Fish fry and street Hakka noodles are quite authentic. Mutton chop and Calcutta roll are very good as well.

First off, the place is super cute but also kind of overwhelming in the best way. There are literally walls of bread and pastries everywhere, and so many options that I didn't even know where to start. I went in planning to spend just a few bucks on Señorita bread and somehow walked out $20 deep with a whole box of stuff. I ended up trying turon, a puto sampler, a bunch of different donuts, and of course the Ube Señorita bread. Honestly, everything was so good. Like fresh fresh. The bread was still warm in my hands, which made it even better. The staff didn't really speak much English, but it honestly wasn't an issue at all. They were super patient and helpful, and still managed to explain what everything was so I could try new things. At the end, I just told one of the ladies I had $20 and wanted to try a variety, and she literally put together a whole selection for me. That was probably my favorite part. The line was kind of long, but it makes sense because the food is clearly worth it. If anything, it just reassured me I was in the right place. Overall, if you're even thinking about trying Señorita bread or just want to explore Filipino pastries, this spot is 100 percent worth it. Just be prepared to go in for one thing and walk out with way more.

Sure enough I was able to get 4 pineapple buns plus I thought I try their bbq pork buns. The pineapple buns were soft and the topping wasn't as flaky as the Hong Kong pineapple buns. The sweetness level and bun were light whereas the Hong Kong is much sweeter and slightly heavier. I say their pineapple bun is decent and their bbq pork bun is smaller than the Hong Kong version.
