kasturi restaurant

honestly i had eaten at this place for more than 15 times.. but after i went for lunch today, the entiretasteof the food has changed... all the items ordered were either blant or tasteless... the hilsa fish we ordered tastes sweet and saltless... really a waste of money!! i had enquired them and they told that the chef was changed... really disappointed 😞

firstly the food is not at all authentic. thetastewere all blend , tastes worse than home cooked.even though i was dining for lunch the dal served was of previous day . the interiors were all dusty and had spider webs all over the walls. the waiter didn't even bothered to serve the food.

portion size is very less. doesn't justify the price. alsotasteus average at best.

the ambience was very good & quite peacefull place..
the place is also good for every type of occasion.....
they have varieties of bengoli food items specially fish items.....
the price quite affordable and it's worth with thetasteof food

bengali cuisines never tend to disappoint me. this place serves varieties of bengali food. i couldn't hold my excitement when we started the meal with the posto bora as starters. we ordered dhokar dalna ( which you must definitelytaste), bhetki paturi is steamed fish prepared with mustard wrapped in a banana left or kola pata which tasted purely ethnic and such good smell. how can one miss bhapa hilsha! but i felt this particular dish was average as it had more mustard and the gravy was a bit dry. mutton kosha was quite spicy and balanced thetastewith a rich flavour to offer, this dish one must definitely try. special mention goes to kasturi's signature dish which was made of kochu paat and prawn, it was appetizing. lastly, had choshir payesh and nolen gurer ice-cream. nolen gurer ice-cream is made of jaggery(gur), you can only imagine how tasty it could be! 😊 i loved the ice-cream the most, a perfect ending to a perfect meal.

apart from the food, the ambience and the staff can make you feel homely. i enjoyed all the 90s music they were playing.
one of the best evening! ❤

after digging out the delicacies many times in kolkata, we were delighted to find out kasturi in guwahati. that was the biggest mistake we made. a bengali cuisine, with anyone from bengal is making the outlet run. the result is that you would often pinch yourself to bleed only to realise that the food tasted horribly different from that of their main outlets in kolkata. my request to the management is to take firm actions regarding this as you can give your recipe but you cannot give yourtasteunless the cook is thoroughly trained with thetasteand heritage. the food we had on the eve of ashtami was also served cold, pale and stale intasteas if it was prepared many hours ago.

everytime i visit the place i found it better and this time in durga puja its like hmmmm yummmy what a food great intasteand quality....awasome bhetki paturi the best one....sorshe ilish ....kochi pathar mangso kasa....my only complain is with their quantity given please give more quantity so that we can enjoy more......loving it kasturi

i went here 3 times. every time i tasted different dishes. food is costly here but very delicious. they are served very well. you can get the besttasteof bengali food 🍲 here. must visit this place.

best place in guwahati to have dhakai bengali food. thetasteis 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 totaste*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.

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'.tastequality 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 mytastebuds 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 totastethe 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.

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) thetastewas 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.

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 ourtastebuds 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!!!

tucked away nicely in the hip gs road, this place offers bengali delicacies straight from the dhakai kitchen of bangladesh. you cannot miss the aroma andtasteof the small fish assortment that is prepared with great skills. they also have a spread of almost all the river fish delicacies, and will be spoilt with choice. we were a large group, and can definitely recommend hilsa, chitol and aar. whether you are a resident or a tourist, make sure you check this off your bucket list.
