kasturi restaurant

best place in guwahati to have dhakai bengali food. the taste is as same as their outlets in kolkata. though the serving style is a little different. in kolkata they dont have menu cards instead they bring the food in tray and u can choose anything which tempts you. here they have names in menu card. i would suggest everyone who visits here to taste *kochu chingri* and *bhetki paturi* with yellow pulao. these are my all time fav dishes from this place and i am sure every1 else will love it.

well a nice place to visit for authentic bengali cuisine. went there for a family celebration and found out that most of the recommended dishes like kochu pata chingri and bhetki bhappa were quite remarkable, but some other dishes like prawn malai curry and dhakai bhuna chicken failed to impress and were way off the mark. so overall i recommend the place if u are an avid fan of bengali fish dishes. a special mention to the nolen gurer ice-cream, that was quite a treat.

must visit once very much awsm place for bengali foods specially. and must visit once with family friends
special desert item is nalen gurer ice cream 😊

if you love bengali food, you should visit this place at guwahati at least once. simple ambience, good menu. some real innovative dishes. one should try the 'kochu pata chingri'. taste quality is good, service is also al right. overall a nice relaxing place for a bengali lunch or dinner.

the food is too over priced...that's the only part in the restaurant which we did not like much. everything else do motivates you to come back again. we ordered lotha sutki,mochha ghonto,steamed rice,roti,steamed prawn in kochu pata. the menu really stands for what the restaurant is marketed for so as a bengali...it gave my taste buds a real rush but the price compels you to think twice.

for a brand like kasturi, quality should be the 1st criteria and it should not depend upon quantity. been to this place numerous occasions, wanted to taste the lovely dhakai cuisine once again. so visited today on the occasion of bengali new year and to my surprise, the food is actually horrendous. mutton is stiff like rock, dal is more liquidy than water and sutki was not washed properly. it's not their original taste, due to huge rush surprisingly their quality has fallen....which is very weird.....if they want to stay true to their brand name, they have to stop such bad practice.

service is poor. rest is good. food is average. but the food quantity is low. and also lack of items in dessert portion. never expected that in such a big restaurant! 😂😂

because when you are born bong, you just cannot escape the delicious offerings even if it served in home everyday... saturday afternoon at kasturi to try the dhakai food. trust me or not, it was gastronomical delight. the menu looks quite good with variations in fish and chicken dishes. but, since, i turned off my experimental mode, i decided to order simple food, because hey, i was hungry. sonar moong dal with peas (yellow dal with peas)and jhuri aloo(potato crispy fry) bhaja to begin with. there it was, nothing less than just mouth watering. next up, paneer rosha (cottage cheese in gravy) the taste was good, though i felt the size of paneer was too small. since i'm on vacation, i ditched my saturday and ordered dhone murgi (coriander chicken). now, this was certainly going to be my favourite here, i'm definitely going to order it again next time. fish was tried by mom so no comment on that. the only thing told by her was that it was undercooked, seasoning was not proper. i ended up the course with kheer doi (sweetened curd) and gulab jamun. for few seconds, i was hypnotised by the curd. it was amazing. okay, that was the food part. dig in and try the bengali cuisine here.... its worth trying and yeah will not make a hole in your pocket for like 101% sure. the ambience was good.... its spacious and i like the view from where i sat. you get a glimpse of the city. the service is definitely gets a thumbs up but the only thing that made me sad was music. it was horrible with falguni phatak's songs, replace with nice hindi old songs or say rabindra sangeet for that matter. kasturi gets 3.5 from my side, it could have been a 4 if and only if falguni had not ruined it! book your sunday table here and relish the bong fiesta.

went there for lunch with my cousins today and i really loved the food. having stayed in kolkata for 3 years, i know how bengali food tastes like, and i didn't have much expectation here in guwahati, but to my surprise, the food here bought back old memories. i ordered the medium thali and the mutton kassa was really good. it was as authentic as it can get, same goes for the fish, also for dessert i had nolen gurer ice cream which was also very good. i don't have anything to complain about regarding food and the service but i experienced frequent power cuts which was a bit of a bummer, hence i'm giving it 4.5

it was such a delight to visit this place for the first time with my family... location is perfect for a family restaurant with a calm interior amidst busy exteriors... parking is in the basement. the interior designing is very bright and sparkling... ambience is perfect...
we ordered steamed rice, dhakai dal fry, mutton do pyaza, chicken daak bunglow, chicken sheel-e-bata, hilsha bhapa, prawn curry and gulab jamun...
each and every dish was cooked to near perfection which left our taste buds wanting for more... such was the delight that we even fixed our next visit to this place... a big yes for those who are still waiting to be served by this restaurant!!!

very nice place for bengali cuisine. recommended try the fish items, their super delicious dal. avoid the chicken dishes, not needed really coz the fish and also dal will be a wholesome and satisfactory meal

food is excellent. mutton and fish dishes are just too awesome. it will make one fall in love with bengali food. a good family restaurant. service is excellent. prices are in budget. good ambience.

nice restaurant serving bengali cuisine ... a bit on the higher side .. the ambiance is good and its nice to go out with family or friends .. the service is okay okay one can try various type of fishes in bengali style ... nice for lunch/dinner.

this might well be the perfect place to enjoy a sumptuous bengali meal. we ordered rice, mutton kosha, ilish maacher matha diye kochu (taro cooked with hiksa head), rohu kalia and jhuri aloo bhaja. all the dishes were lip smacking tasty. however, the price is a bit on the higher side. visit if you want to devour some authentic bengali cuisine.

extremely delicious food..it was first time when i got the aroma and flavour of bengali dishes especially kochu pata chingri vapa and vetki paturi were mouth watering. moreover the ambience was good and the staff were cordial.
