Mezban House (Halal)

It’s a good Bengali restaurant in this neighborhood. I went there to have some authentic Chittagonian dish. Wasn’t totally disappointed with the flavors. Their service is very good and the server was friendly and welcoming. For the food, the Nola daal was decent but I felt like the kala bhuna was too dry. Given the price of their platter, I would suggest to reduce the price a little bit because the serving size doesn’t justify the price. Overall you can try out the restaurant for a good food.

The food was amazing—I haven't had food this delicious in ages! The chicken lollipop was crispy and packed with flavor, and the vorta platter was an explosion of flavors in every bite. The Mezban beef was super tender, and the spices in the Nola Dal Gost were just right. Everything tasted so fresh and well-prepared. Can't wait to go back!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I am a Chatgayya! We had an amazing experience at Mezban House on Corona Avenue! The Chatgyya Mezbani food was absolutely delicious—rich flavors, tender meat, and perfectly spiced dishes that reminded us of home. The service was excellent, and Rubel took great care of us with his friendly and attentive service. The atmosphere was cozy and authentic. If you love real Mezbani taste, this place is a must-visit. Highly recommend to anyone looking for great food and a true taste of Chattogram! Will definitely be coming back!

Best Bengali Food in New York City, Hands Down! Living abroad, it’s often hard to find Bengali food that truly captures the flavors and authenticity of back home, no matter where you go. But Mezbaan is a game-changer—it delivers that authentic Bangladeshi taste and takes you straight back home. I’ve been to Mezbaan five times already, sometimes with friends and other times with relatives, and every single visit has been a 10/10 experience. If you’re a fan of bhortha, their Bhortha Platter is a must-try! The flavors are spot on, and it’s a delight for anyone who loves traditional Bengali food. Their beef combos are another highlight. Whether it’s the Kalabhuna, Chui Jhaal, or the Chatgayya Mezbaan, these dishes are exceptional. Chui Jhaal and Chatgayya Mezbaan, in particular, are absolutely a must-try. And don’t miss their Roast Pulao—it’s delicious and pairs perfectly with their other offerings. The service is excellent as well, with staff who genuinely care about your experience. The location might not see much traffic, but don’t let that fool you. Mezbaan is a hidden gem worth visiting, and your support will help keep this incredible spot thriving.

Mezban House in Elmhurst is a culinary gem! The Beef Jhuri is a must-try—shredded beef infused with rich spices that will tantalize your taste buds. The Mezbani Beef is another standout, slow-cooked to perfection with unique flavors that linger delightfully. Their platters, served with fluffy white rice and lentils, offer a fulfilling meal. Don’t miss the Malai Jorda for dessert; it's a heavenly mix of sweet aromatic rice and creamy goodness, paired with delicious golap jamun. The service is impeccable, and with late-night hours and ample seating, it’s perfect for any outing. Street parking is a breeze. Highly recommend!

Age tader khawa Onnk moja chilo service oo Bali chilo. But last time geselam, khawa Onnk baje lagsee. Kalavhuna onnk shokto chilo, Nolar dal ee Boro ekta haddi chara r kisui painai. Overall for the food and poor service I’ve experienced I would not recommend them anymore. The waiter was like “ this time you didn’t like, come back next time, you might like? “ So what about I’m paying for this time??? Also other table was complaining about Kalavhuna as well so he had no choice but agreed with me.. They got fam now so they don’t care about the quality anymore. This was only my personal opinion. Do not mind if it hurt you anyway.

After a long time, today I ate a lot of interesting Bangladeshi food. Our dishes were mezban beef, chana dal, shrimp bharta, hilsa fish tail bharta, fried hilsa fish, malai jorda, hot hot tea.

Though we had reservations but the whole resturant were packed though both of the servers were helpful and tried to provide us the best service as they could! The quality of the food was top notch but if you are a chatgaiyya then you can tell the mezbani and the buter dal with nola they serve are not even close to real mezbani! And they were out of the most of the dessert so we had to leave without having dessert. However, despite of that we enjoyed our meal but they need to enhance their seating capacity soon! Good luck !
