The 31 Best Restaurants in Kolkata (Calcutta), India | Eater

"Situated in the bustling New Market area, Kasturi is packed most days. The kitchen serves Bangladesh’s Dhakai food, distinguished by robust flavors and the bold use of mustard and chiles. The menu features different kinds of bhorta (various ingredients spiced and mashed) and shile bata (spiced chicken or dried fish, ground into a paste on a grinding stone), Dhaka’s famed morog (cock) pulao, and a rich bhetki bhapa (thick slabs of sea bass slathered with a mustard-based marinade and baked in foil boxes). But the star dish is kochupata chingri, taro leaves and tiny prawns cooked together in pungent mustard paste and finished with lashings of sharp mustard oil." - Priyadarshini Chatterjee

Whenever i visit Kolkata, I always make sure to have a thali or a dish here. The ambiance is simple with people full most of the time. The menu has a wide range of items. My personal favourite is the prawns. Just love it. Basanti pulao with chicken curry/ kosha is also a must try. Do visit if you love authentic bengali food

At first, I was a bit skeptical about their food;mainly because I’ve been disappointed by many highly rated restaurants before. This place is quite old, and you can tell that from the interior. But to my surprise, everything I ordered turned out to be amazing! The food tasted like authentic, homemade Bengali dishes, full of flavor…My absolute favorite was the “Kochupata Chingri”perfectly cooked prawns with mustard paste and colocasia leaves. If you’re looking for genuine Bengali food and don’t mind a simple, no-frills setting, this place is definitely worth a visit .

We visited Kasturi for lunch, and overall it was an average experience — not too good, not too bad. We ordered the veg thali, kachupata chingri bhappa, and aar begun bori diye macher jhol. The veg thali was good, similar to what you get in other Bengali restaurants — nothing particularly special. However, the real highlight was the kachupata chingri. It tasted amazing and was definitely the star of the meal. I would strongly recommend that everyone visiting Kasturi should try this dish at least once. On the other hand, I personally didn’t like the aar macher jhol. The taste was below average and didn’t meet my expectations. One area for improvement is the staff behavior — they need to be more respectful and attentive to customers. Otherwise, it was a decent experience overall.

Kasturi is a famous bengali hotel of Marquis street. Interior and ambience was super. Food taste was good enough. I am very disappointed with the service. I went to this restaurant around 2:30 pm for my lunch and I had to wait for 40 minutes to get the food.

If you want yo have authentic Bengali food this place is highly recommended . Don’t miss Basanti pulav and mutton kosha if you are mutton lover.

I had ordered Chicken Dak Bungalow this afternoon from Kasturi Restaurant via Zomato, as an emergency meal after my home-cooked curry got burnt. I was genuinely disappointed by what I received. Despite paying ₹244, the quantity of gravy provided was shockingly low—barely enough for a few spoonfuls of rice. This is simply not acceptable from an established restaurant. Moreover, the hygiene of the dish was quite poor, which is extremely disappointing. The chicken pieces and taste were decent, but that does not make up for the unhygienic presentation and lack of value for money. A reputed outlet like Kasturi should uphold better quality standards—both in terms of quantity and hygiene. Sadly, this experience has made me hesitant to order again and I would not recommend based on this order.
