Craving dhaba style food in kolkata.
Azad hind is the place to be at 😍
Best items
- Tandoori Aloo
- Paneer Tikka
- Garlic Naan is really tasty
- kadhai Paneer
- Daal Tadka
Here try daal tadka over daal makhni, I pretty much like that more 🙌
The restaurant is divided into two parts, but the feel is order for food and have it in your car.
Tip - there's a paan wala right outside, after you have your food here, do have the meetha paan 😍

I ordered one butter naan and one rumali roti and one butter chicken . To my surprise the naan was too soft and the butter chicken was delicious too but yes i thought the salt was little less as i love more quantity of salt in my food. The chicken pieces were soft and juicy and was fresh . Overall its really good . And the delivery person was very fast enough to reach our place .

Review#800
An 800th review is indeed special and hence, penning the same for a very very special place - Azad Hind, Ballygunge!
This one definitely needs no introduction – you may hardly find a soul in whole of Kolkata who has not had their stuff at least once in their lifetime! It’s obviously the 1st outlet of the entire Azad Hind chain of restaurants in Kolkata – and by far the best!
Have had their stuff since childhood – and have always loved it! Their rolls – especially the veg paneer ones just rock! Their Paneer butter masala, dal makhani, aloo dum as well as their naans rock, not to forget their peas pulao and mix veg pulao!
After a span of more than 10 years, got to have their food – ordered a Dal Makhani as well as a Masala Kulcha for delivery – and was largely impressed that nothing has changed even after such a long period of time! Same taste, same fragrance, same punch! Wow!
Dal makhani was so simple, yet elegant – awesome in taste – went pretty well with the kulcha – which was generously stuffed with potatoes, paneer etc and well cooked! Kulcha was so huge – 1 is sufficient for 2 hungry souls! Dal quantity could have been better, but no regrets!
Nice to see that they did not overpower the dal with excess ghee / oil / chilies – just maintained an opt balance of the same throughout!
Food was prepared in no time – delivered to my place inside half an hour, although, this restaurant is a good 8 kms from my place!
By and large a perfect experience – pocket pinch is high but worth every penny!
Thanks Azad Hind for the memories!
really good for family and dhaba style dining serves till really late at night food quality and quantity is good and suited for the price
Mukka pyaaz and chicken tangadi kebab 🤤
I ordered Boneless Chicken Bharta. The item was nice.... I really enjoyed this dish.... But I don't like the environment in this place... So I suggest that you can order from your home.
Food here is just so good! I guess I never had a better butter tadka in my lifetime! Tastes heavenly! It was a miss that we went there on a veg day of the week! Can't wait to try out their no ln veg dishes!
If you want good food this is your place without any second thought! So delicious!
Ok so I ordered food online from AZAD HIND DHABA,,I think it was the best food I ordered till date,, I ordered RUMALI ROTI AND CHICKEN BHARTA,,they gave a pretty good amount of food that me and my friend both could have our lunch from that... Rumali roti was very soft and the chicken was just yum..
So I shall recommend this restaurant to everyone you can go or order food from this restaurant
Thank You ☺️
we had ordered mutton biryani, chicken tikka butter masala, chicken reshmi butter masala. they were awesome. chicken was very tasty and soft
I ordered Chicken Bharta and Romali Roti from Azad Hind Dhaba today. The quantity of bharta was good. The taste was good too.
I will order other dishes as well.
It's a very unpretentious joint, nothing great about the ambience though one wall has a framed painting by Hussain. The story goes that he was a regular here when in Kolkata and one day just painted on one wall, that has now been framed! The seasonal dishes of Sarson da saag and Makkai di roti were just delicious and so satisfying as was the Gobhi Mutter!☺️

Quality Food and the best punbaji cuisine
The owner was very appreciative and the staffs were highly trained
Azad Hind Dhaba Newly Opened next to Balwant singh dhaba location Bhowanipore
Great Ambience and Quality
Went there for lunch. Tried Special Mutton Biryani, chicken Biryani, butter nan, chicken tikka butter masala, mutton saag and lassi. Lassi was sweet and tasted lovely. Special biryani had three chunks of mutton and they use oil instead of dalda which is healthy. Mutton saag and tikka butter masala was both great to taste. Ambience could be better but service is lightening fast and staff are cordial. Pocket friendly too. All these for RS.1133 only.
We ordered at night..it was pretty late but felt like having something..instead of momos or pizzas this time we ordered Chicken Tandoori and 1 Masala Kulcha...delivery was prompt, packaging was good too moreover the food was very tasty healthy..Chicken Tandoori was perfectly done neither overdone nor rare...served with Lachcha onion and curd n pudina dip...the kulcha was baked..the filling was perfect too..it was butter brushed but not at all greasy...am very happy..will order again and again..will try their Chicken Bharta Butter Chicken Dal Makhani etc. Recommended 👍
This place is awesome..we went there at midnight..very reasonable price with tasty food..the good thing is they do not put food colour in there kebab..and kebab are very tasty and tender...as well as bharta ...must go...
It is a very well-known place for their rolls. I have been visiting this place for years. I used to pick up roll while coming from tutions.I come here often for their rolls and I got Paneer roll and cheese roll. Both the rolls are good. Cheese momo is the one I really liked out of the two. I have tried their rolls many times they have always been really delicious.The place has some items that are quite affordable while other most of the items are quite expensive.Servers are helpful. Food was served quickly.
Recently visited Azad Hind Dhaba. Nice environment with tasty food.. Tasted Chicken fired rice , chili chicken, tandoori roti, Chicken kosha . It's good for outing with friends and family..
It's a place to be, probably as old as Kolkatas history good Punjabi delicacies at quite reasonable prices. Nice experience with quick efficient services.
The food quality ,quantity and the taste is good...but the chicken kebabs are too hard to chew... its not at all soft.. rest everything is fine.
I ordered butter chicken and butter naan . The taste was amazing. They don't give any discount but the price of dishes are worth it. Foods are amazing♥️
Well..to start with..the restaurant has this "ghar waali feeling" with staffs greeting and an old interior...i loved their food taste and quantity...we ordered tandoori aloo(baby potatoes and veges in a skewer), peas pulao, mutton liver korma..
1 plate of each was really enough for 2people..
Good experience..will visit again
A good place for some Punjabi cuisine as you can figure out from the name itself... We had butter chicken, murg kali mirch, butter naan, roti, zeera rice.. Everything was super delicious, portionwise also good...
Thought I am a vegetarian, still The best roll I ever had was here..
Every time I visit my friend's place which is quite close to this restaurant, i demand him to take me here.
I lovee this place. The ambiance is like a typical dhaba. Must try the tandoori,kebabs and something i tried very recently and lovedd- fish tandoori.
If one wants to have good Indian food this the right place with a reasonable budget. You have both dine in and takeaway options. Varieties of rolls are availble there. It is quiet famous for its rolls. In main course i liked chicken kadai, chicken tikka masala, egg tarka and rumali roti. The rotis are really soft. The sides are quiet spicy and hot. Chicken bharta comes in white gravy and is less spicy. They keep good range of kebabs. Even the chicken tikka masala is first made into kebabs and then put into red gravy. The food is quiet tasty there.
THANKS ANNA..It's been years since I came here but you still recognized me. Thanks for you made me feel I have been a good human. Thanks for you made me feel proud of myself. Thanks for the selfless service.
Azad Hind Dhaba Ballygunj circular road. Fabulous food. I ordered chicken korma with rice and dahi. Surprising chicken korma here is served with a boiled eggs and potato. A complete meal in itself. Dahi had the perfect sourness in it. And again thanks to Anna. His hospitality makes it one of the must visits when ever am in Kolkata.
Though this place doesn't need any review... Everyone in the city has a nostalgia with this place... The food is as delicious as always... The ambience is as lively as always... The queues are long as always.. the ambience outside is more lovely...
### kababs and biryani is a must try.. along with kulfi..
Order done by zomato & thanks for it's superfast delivery .... Chicken bharta and shahi panner.. The quantity given was perfect for 2 persons...taste was good for late n8 dinner with tandoori rooti....
STP! Straight to the point!
The curry’s that we ordered were good in taste, but didn’t really make it quantity-wise. But the Mutton Biryani was truly satisfying and made me feel good about this oldie concept restaurant. 4*
Went before half an hour.One of the last night craving place.We ordered steamed rice,tandoori roti,yellow dal,egg bhurji,mutton liver massla,mutton kassa,green salad and at the end we finished up with kulfi.As compare to pricinv food quality and quantity both are good....
An all time favourite. Ordered Paneer Tikka butter masala with Roomali roti, Masala Kulcha And sikoras of hot tea. Enjoyed everything. The only complaints that missi roti was not available.
Some good north Indian food is what you can definitely expect from this joint. I personally love the texture of their dal makhani and the perfection of the tandoori chicken. Pocket friendly and good food is what you can definitely expect from this place.
The food was exceptionally tasty. A big thumbs up for that !
Just I mentioned to give vinegar onions and it was not there.
I like the attitude of personnel engaged by zomato
One of the best places for a foodie to visit, when the time is not on your side😂. Irrespective of the time on the clock, you’re guaranteed of best services. Super soft rotis and privacy is the best part of the meal. Rest is immaterial....Just visit there and you’ll know💕💕
Dal tadka and chicken reshmi butter masala was awesome. But aloo do pyaza was not upto the mark, just average.
The food was good but cleaning is out of place and stuffs were not very energetic, though we visited around 1 am at night.
A good dhaba to visit if it's after 12 at night and you are near the area.
Went for a late night dinner, and let me tell you it lives up to its reputation. It was very crowded even at midnight, and we had to wait a while but the food was to die for. The chicken tikka butter masala and the chicken bharta were the star of the show. The kulcha and biryani were not too bad either. Overall I would recommend it to any indian food lovers.
Visited on Sunday evening. Luckily I got an available parking spot. You have to park your car in front of the dhaba. Tried Tandoori chicken, tea and lassi. Good service. All the items being served in the car. Food quality is also nice. Will again visit to try out some other food items.
Azad Hind Dhaba is a popular roadside eatery in Ballygunge, Kolkata. It is known for its affordable and delicious North Indian food, especially its curries, tandoori dishes, and kebabs. The dhaba is also a popular hangout spot for locals and tourists alike.
Azad hind dhaba, one of the beat dhaba famous in kolkata for food and a painting by M F HUSSAIN “ gaj gamini 96-99”.
The food of azad hind dhaba is very good and economical. Best for non veg, even i dont go for non veg but my friends always prefer this.
Approx budget for 3 persons is 1000 bucks.

Earlier the food quality was much better than what they are currently serving.
Their signature dishes have lost the touch.
Was disappointed 😞
This is not an upbeat place. Decades old and has a legacy. This is one of their two outlets around this section of the city
Food is amazing. Especially the non veg food. Portion size is good and so is the price.
Has an AC area but only family or couples are allowed if accompanied by female guests.
If you are looking for proper dhaba food then Azad Hind Dhaba is the the place for you. It has varieties of option with reasonable pricing. You might have to wait little extra for your order if the footfall is too much during weekends or festive period for dine-in or if you have a 4 wheeler then you can park and eat in it aswell. Atmosphere is descent enough for just eating !!
We have visited 2nd Oct'2023 Azad Hind Dhaba , Ballygunge Circular road . Indian Dishes Like Dal Makhni , Chicken Bharta , Paneer Butter Masala were delicious . Food - out of 5 Azad Hind should get 4.5 . Only thing need to improve the Interior Decor and Hygienic services . Specially the Toilets / Washroom etc . Car parking is available and staff behaviour are very good.
Back in the pre-zomato, pre-swiggy days, this was THE original place for the late night hungry. A true place that lights up the quiet side of Ballygunge that's half military and half civilian. Excellent kitchen and service of the highest order. It strikes the perfect balance between the authentic Punjabi ambience and the cosmopolitan atmosphere.
I loved the delicious food which we had ordered. Soft and tender butter naan, butter chicken & tarka with onion salad. I would love to visit this Dhaba again with my friends and family.
The food was plain (though we did ask for completely nonspicy taste), but the tandoori rotis were fresh, crisp and absolutely amazing.
They have a surprise mocktail bar too that turned out our mint flavoured choices to perfection.
Its a good place to have a dhaba food. Best Indian food. North indian food. Its in ballygunj circular road and its always full with people. The best thing is that people have food in there car have a big adda. The food quality and quantity is good but its back draw is that most of yhe time they dnt have half of their menu. And the food is bit spicy if you dnt have like spicy food you must say them before hand at the time of placing the order not to give chili not to make it spicy. The food is good.
The food quality and quantity is up to the mark. The taste is very good, specially mutton do peyaza and palak fry. Mutton biriyani has an exceptional taste. I would recommend everyone to visit.
