A polished, high-ceilinged space near Marble Arch evoking the colonial clubs of Calcutta with rattan furniture and ceiling fans, offering a distinct seafood-heavy menu that departs from standard curry house fare.
Ordering Strategy
Focus on the unique Calcutta appetizers (croquettes, cutlets) and seafood dishes rather than generic staples. Be prepared for strong mustard (kasundi) flavors.
What to order
Banana Flower Croquettes
Critics highlight their "delightful crunch" and "real meatiness," noting the clever blend of banana florets, coconut, and cinnamon served with a delicate mint-kasundi dip.
Kosha Mangsho (Lamb Curry)
This bone-in lamb curry is lauded for its "deep, marrow-enriched flavour" and the way mustard oil is used to enhance the dish's "gentle heat."
Prawn (Chingri) Cutlet
A "chunky breadcrumbed prawn dish" whose warming spices are piqued by a punchy mustard dip, representing the unique historical influences of Kolkata cuisine.
Mango Bhapa Doi
A Kolkata "classic" dessert that reviewers insist "deserves a place in anyone’s order" for its refreshing "twinging tartness of curd."
