We were the first booking they received after
lockdown. The service was slow at first but then they picked up and the food was finger licking delicious. It was my mom’s bday and they made it perfect with a free champagne. Totally made our night. Definitely going back for the food!

It’s a very good restaurant that serves North Indian food with great ambience, nice interior and great service by the staff. I loved the Murgh Makhani & Lamb Rogan Josh of this place and also not to miss Murgh Tandoori which is very good. The price of this restaurant is on the bit higher side but it’s worthy... Bar is also there with this restaurant and valet parking is provided by the restaurant.

The best fine dining experience in Kolkata! Delicious food, especially the Raan and Zafrani Biryani. Debashish Basu served us with a very warm smile. The food portions were more than sufficient and the quantity and quality justified the prices. Finally, they charge very less tax, so, we were honestly very surprised. Will definitely visit again for the food and the staff. Note: The ambience is very romantic for a date!

This restaurant is located at the tip of sudder street just beside INDIAN MUSEUM. The ambiance was overall good. Food was great while the starters could have been better. It's also a bit overpriced and service wasn't upto the mark at all. Overall it's a great family restaurant if you are thinking to have some rich indian food.

It’s the best fine dine restaurant located in New market area and they serve delicious North Indian Cuisine, Mughlai Cuisine and Punjabi Cuisine. Ambiance is great. A great family restaurant, serving delicious kebabs, parathas, curries and biriyani. Food quality and quantity are good. The behavior of the staffs are also very good.

Been here for dinner on the occasion of Anirban's pre-birthday bash tonight i.e. 22-sep-2019.

The staff were very generous & courteous.
The ambience was really nice.
We had a pre-reserved table & thus the booking was promptly recognised.
We availed 2+2 on drink offer on zomato gold - and to my surprise they dint have any drink selectiom restrictions here. Any drink qualifies for the 2+2 offer (30ml for liquors)
The only bit is that the food is quite over-expensive!
One plate of biriyani cost us rs 725!
And the service could a be bit more prompt.

Other than these two, we had quite satisfactory time here at this restaurant.

Wevordered Irish whisky & awadhi chicken biriyani.
The photos are attached for reference.

Want to indulge in one of the best dal makhnis the city has to offer? Head to Zaranj. The meal consisting of a simple dal makhni , lachcha paratha and paneer is immensely satisfying and it qualifies as comfort food. The ambiance is also soothing and the staff is friendly.

This was our second visit to the legendary restaurant in new market area. We bought two coupons from nearbuy of three course non veg dinner of Rs 1199 each for four of us. For starters we had murgh nawabi, machli masala kabab. Mutton rogan josh and bhuna gosht zaranj along with butter nun, garlic nun and kulcha for mains. In desserts we tried kulfi with faloda and chocolate ice cream. Of all the items the rogan josh deserve special mention as it literally melts in the mouth. The staff were very courteous and helpful and the ambiance was really nice.

Now a days many new restaurants are opening in Kolkata but still some old great restaurants giving some competition to them. Yesterday I went to zaranj with my foody friends. Old charm still there. Lovely ambience and still serving great food. I had Subzee Kadhaiwala, Khumbh Hara Dhania, Maa ki dal, Navratan kofta and tandoori veg platter.All tasted delicious.

Zaranj is known for their Laccha Parathas in Kolkata.It was on my wish list for a long time and finally I paid a visit.The ambience is just fantastic.The interiors and seating arrangements gives vintage feeling to dine here.There is inhouse fountain which is quite appealing and which is what it makes it kinda exclusive place to dine at. Perfect for Wine & Dine.Ordered "Paneer Makhmali" in pair with "Lachha Parathas" which turned out to be a fantastic combination.In Breads Section I strongly recommend their lachha parathas.Quantity & Taste was A one.They serve food in silver coated utensils which again make it different from others.

Prices are very high.Service is good.

P.S. - Before Serving order they give complimentary Papads & Long cut Salads which was fine.

Zaranj is a premium restaurant which has passed the test of time and has emerged victoriously! The food, the ambience are both out of the world! The long queue maybe an issue but as we say It's worth the wait!

I had visited the restaurant with family on Sunday evening for dinner. This was probably the 50th time we were going there. So as usual We ordered for the dahi ke kebab, their speciality but then after a very long time it was not at all upto the mark and tasted very salty. So, at the end in the reviews I mentioned the same.
Now, the very next day which was a Monday, the restaurant/manager sent across the kebabs along with kaali dal, butter naan , papad , the dips and all right from new market area to salt lake at around 10pm. I was surprised to receive such a warm and excellent service and the effort put towards this. And this time it tasted so good, like always. The manager , Mr. Arup Chakraborty accompanied the order with a very polite letter as well.
Thank you so much for a being so hospitable and taking the review so seriously . I am sure such services will take you places. Kudos to the effort especially.😀

Dashabhuja - The Bengali Spread at Zaranj Official.

With the festive fever at its peak and the city is all soaked to enjoy every bit of Durga Puja, and food, is being an integral part of every festival, it's time to celebrate the grand occasion with some amazingly curated traditional Bengali foods.

Zaranj Official - the fabulous casual dining restaurant welcomes you to relish the Taste of Bengal - quite unique range of authentic Bengali cuisines with its distinctive taste of 'bangaliana' to celebrate the special days of the grand festival - Durga Puja from their dashabhuja spread in a great ambience.

Satiate your taste buds with these exquisite cuisines mixed with heart-warming spices, spiked with chillies to give a pleasant kick with pure ecstasy - the ultimate dream of every Bong.

IN FRAME - DASHABHUJA SPREAD

Every elaborate Bengali meals kick off with tastes of nostalgia from grandmom days - welcome chiller Aam Pora Sorbot (Smoky Mango Panna), the great smoky aroma of the roasted raw mangoes mixed with sugar and the sweet-tangy-spicy taste is so tempting. Another classic drink that Bengalis are obsessed about - 'Gondhoraj lebur sarbat' - ' Gonghoraj lime', the king of Bengal lime, its taste and aroma is superbly refreshing.

The Bengalis takes an excessive pride in their cuisine - the classic items on wedding feast, when it comes to traditional Bengali style deep fried puffed bread - Luchi beautifully paired with the 2 heavenly Bengali combinations - Aloo Dum and the sweetish flavoured lentils (Chana or Cholar Dal) perfumed with rich spices mixed with coconut - Narkel Diye Cholar Dal.

Another Bengali favourite - Koraishutir Kochuri or Peas Kachori deep fried puffed bread stuffed with mashed peas infused in spices, always warms up every winter occasions.

Fulkopi Roast with Makhana -

Another version of gobi musallam. Small pieces of cauliflower marinated with heartwarming spices and roasted in tandoor which comes with sticky gravy and brings a super delicious.flavor to the cauliflower.

Bhetki Polau -

A brilliant recipe. Tried this for the first time. Aromatic long grained basmati rice soaked with the flavours of rich whole spices and the and succulent pieces of bhetki cubes. Very delectable.

Daab Chingri -

The queen of Bengali signature delicacy of all special occasions. Prawn mixed with masalas cooked under tender Coconut along with spices and coconut flesh that brings the unique taste and served with a gorgeous presentation in green coconut.

Bhetki Macher Paturi -

The signature Bengali fish dish to which Bengalis can never say no. Square pieces of Bhetki fillets marinated in the paste of mustard wrapped in Banana leaf and steamed. The smoky flavour of the banana leaf sipped into the spices wrapped on the fish is just mesmerizing.

Chicken Dak Bungalow or Chicken Dak Bangla -

Have tasted something like this before. Another version of Mutton Dak Dak Bungalow that comes with its roots from the British era in India.One pot meal with very rustic texture and flavourful.

Mutton Kasha -

One of the quintessential Bengali dishes. Your own favourite bowl of mutton curry that will always make you crave for more with its amazingly aromatic rich flavours.

Finally, the meal ended on sweet note with sticky Chutney studded with raisins, dates and aam shotto - heavenly taste.

Thanks a lot, Zaranj Official Team for your gracious hospitality.

Went there on Saptami night with my parent. The place has quite calm vibes which was much needed after a busy day of pandal hopping. Their hospitality is also unparalleled. Coming to the food, we were quite spoilt for choices in the kebab section so they suggested we try their Murgh Nawabi kabab which was hands down delish. I surely felt they could have been a been more generous on their portion sizes. For main course we ordered the basic mix fried rice and chilli chicken which were again very exquisite. But my complaint regarding their quantity remains. So Saptami night ended well at Zaranj. I will definitely recommend this place to all.

Durga Pujo is not about pandal hopping only... We, Bengalis can't think of a celebration without food...
On the auspicious day of Choturthi me, along with my foodie mates visited Zaranj and had awesome lunch there... It was authentic bengali food... But the best think I liked was that Phoolkopir Daak Bungalow.... This was very innovative...

And not just the food, I loved the ambiance too... Just go and visit their pujo special menu : dashabhuja...

Now if you ask me to give it a rating, I'll give 5/5...

The team of Zaranj is trying to uphold the taste of our very own bengali cuisine by serving some amazing yet known dishes which are being prepared every now & then in our daily households, & I must say they are successful in doing so. My personal picks were the CHICKEN DAKBUNGLOW, BHETKI POLAO,DAAB CHINGRI, KORAISHUTIR KOCHURI. But other dishes also didn't lag behind that much.
If you are near Park Street area visit this place during this puja and treat yourself with some mouthwatering bengali delicacies worth remembering.

Till then you don't have to eat less; you just have to eat right!

P.S.: Went there for the bloggers meet with Team Panchphoron & Am2pmfood.

Durga puja and bengali food goes hand by hand.We can’t think any festival without food.365 days of ab year we feed our appetite with chinese continental italian cuisine but yes in this 5days of durga puja we give special attention to Bengali cuisine.Bengali cuisine defines our culture the most.There are many outlets in Kolkata who can give our tastebud a rich taste of Bengali cuisine,Zaranj is one of them.Zaranj is one of my favourite.
Today,again I keep my steps to Zaranj to start my puja hopping.They are all set with a beautiful cozy ambience,decorated with flowers and mild ambience.So without giving soo much introduction lets have a look to their special delicacies which are my favourite and yes a must try.

Aam pora shorbot:- Light green coloured nicely flavoured welcome drink which is perfect to start a grand lunch.
Lebur shorbot:- Bengali’s gandhoraj lebu is all time favourite.And yes famous for starting any lunch.Fresh lime juice mixed with chilled water sweet and pudina.
Bhetki polau:- One of the unique polao,chunky fish cubes with mild flavour of spices.
Panner biriyani:-Perfect for any vegetarian person who loves biriyani.Large cubes of fried panner with perfect biriyani rice.
Daab chingri and daab paneer:- Both the dishes are perfect to accompany a bengali pulao or steam rice.
Chicken dakbunglow:-Spicy rich chichen gravy served with egg and topped with barista.
Mutton kasa:- Authentic mutton kasa can go well with polau.and bengali luchi.
Karaisutir kachuri,alo mushroom dum,Echor dalna,Cholar daal this all are also my favourite one in these puja days.
Thanks to am2pmfood and Panchphoron for the invitation.

Surprised as to how I had never visited this place before! Very courteous staff, beautiful ambience, delightful food and good company made this visit a memorable one for me. The dahi ke kebab was a sumptuous starter, veg au gratin was delicious but the best of all the delicacies was definitely Laccha Paratha. After ages, I finally had laccha paratha as to how it should be i.e, crisp, thick and heavy! Surely worth a visit again👍

Located near Indian Museum. The SOI and Zaranj located in the same place. This place was amazing. I have visited here few weeks ago. Ambience was extremely good, well decorated, staffs were very polite, always tell you there signature dishes and suggest you the best dishes on your demand. I think this place is little bit crowded on weekend. So I suggest better to go there on weekdays so that you can be able to see the decoration and feel the ambience.

A reputed name among the old restaurants in Kolkata, Zaranj began serving in 1991 and holds a special place in Kolkata’s heart from then on. It is famous for its Chinese cuisine but serves yummy North Indian food as well. People look forward to its ambience. The well trained servers and other members are humble enough to make you feel important.

At the snout of Sudder street connecting the Jawaharlal Nehru road sits this amazing restaurant. Fine dining. The prominence somewhat obscured by the pavement covered with dirty plastics of hawkers(oh! What will happen to this City of Joy). The ambience is quite Victorian with comfortable sitting. Dim lights and sets of 4-8. There is a fountain running and one has to mind the steps . It's multi stepped. There is fresh room inside. The stewards are old, well behaved and experienced, helping out in choosing the best dish. The food is delectable, hot and classical nawabi. Don't order at one go. The portion sizings are sumptuous and please order the bread - one at a time . They serve hot mouth watering dishes . Delightful overall experience. It may feel stiff on the pocket but it's not. Prefer a lunch out , as parking becomes cool and one can over eat to skip the dinner !!! Have fun guys . Right next to the Indian National Museum. Plan a visit there and eat lunch here . Happy times ......

Located near Indian Museum, Zaranj offers fine-dining North Indian cuisine. The ambience and atmosphere is wonderful — one of the best in the city, in my opinion. The food was up to the mark. The kebabs are especially worth mentioning, they were soft and grilled to perfection. Loved the naan, biriyani and the side dishes too. Staff were very helpful and courteous. The food presentation was pretty great as well. The price is a bit on the higher side, but the taste of the food quite compensated for it. Pocket pinch is about INR 2,500 for two people. A definite recommend if you are looking to try North Indian cuisine in a fine dining restaurant.

Superb Ambience. Courteous and helpful staffs. We ordered one murg biriyani and first we thought food was bit expensive but, then they provided green salad, raita, papad and gravy along with that biriyani so that was worthy. Biriyani was tasty as well and place was hygienic.Will go there again

I went to Zaranj with my friends and to our surprise we found Zaranj amazing. The ambience was so good with soothing music playing in the background. Each and every food was so well cooked and delicious. The quality and quantity of the food totally complements the price. There is valet parking available so no need to be worried about parking.

One of best restaurants in Calcutta- I have been visiting since early 90 s - food quality and service consistently excellent - my favourite is their lamb tilla kebab - miss the silver cutlery and plates though.

The restaurant is just adjacent to India meusem at the end of sudder street towards park street. If you are coming from Esplanade don't take the fly way you have to take a side road. The restaurant serves Asian food the ambience is good. The food quality and taste is truly authentic. I used to work near by and visit the restaurant often for lunch.

Excellent place for fine dining. A little costly...but excellent food, service and ambience. Has an old world charm to it. Beware of the steps leading to the washroom though...unmindfully one might miss those...

Located at No. 26, Jawaharlal Nehru Rd, Near Indian Museum, Fire Brigade Head Quarter, New Market Area, Dharmatala, Taltala, Kolkata, West Bengal 700016, Zaranj was one of the most coveted destinations for North Western Frontier Cuisine. It continues to do regular business on signature platters of paneer tikka and machhli chaman. Try the Zaranji raan (rum-spiked whole roasted leg) and machhli Begum Bahar (bekti cooked in a tomato gravy flavoured with carom seeds), Hyderabadi gosht biryani and the sesame-studded murgh til tikka. This is not the place for the pocket conscious; prices are steep in comparison to most standalone restaurants in the city.
