Tasted Butter Masala Dosa from Raj for the first time ……   as a take away, and was absolutely floored by the tasty Dosa. I also liked their way of packing, which helps in keeping a dosa retain its length and shape for quite some time which is a difficult thing to achieve.Looking forward to ordering other items :)

One of the oldest South Indian restaurants in the city, Raj has been there since forever and is my favourite place to hop into whenever my mom refuses to do her chores and make us dinner. Everything ranging from Masala Dosa, Idly , Pizza are impeccable in taste. The only dish that brought in disappointment with itself is Idly Sizzler which is nothing what they say it is. Apart from that the Napotelia Pizza is one of the best pizzas and would give some good pizza joints a run for it's money. If you are looking to have great food as well as not burn a big hole in the pocket, this is the place to be.

One of the oldest South Indian Restaurants of South kolkata and one of my best for south indian food. I am a regular visitor here. Try the south indian meals which they serve at specific timings. Today i visited for breakfast and tried the sizzler idly and it was awesome. Always ask for special chutney with south indian food. The USP of this restaurant is they serve you unlimited coconut chutney and Sambhar ( Jain also available) before your order comes so you dont have to seat idle. Very hygienic and service is very fast. They also have some continental food in their menu which is worth a try.

Raj Restaurant on Manohar Pukur Road is the best south indian food destination in town. Every item has its own original taste value. I have been to this place for more than 100 times but I have been never served stale or cold stuff. Steaming hot Idly and just out of pan Bada always always. The unrestricted serving of thick coconut chutney and hot Sambar is a thing to recognise. The waiter keeps a tab on your chutney and sambar bowl and fills it upto the brim immediately. The size the quality the hospitality the cleanliness every thing reminds you to visit again and again.

Perfect place for a south Indian meal. Serves almost all types of southern foods along with some chats. Ordered masala dosa and two types of chats. Papri chat and aloo tikki chat. The food is very good and the chats were mouth watering. The place is quite hygienic and the staffs were also very nice and attentive. They also have combos with dosa, vada or idly and coffee. The price is also reasonable.

My go to restaurant for my morning breakfast. I’m a fan of this place. And I love all the different types of dosa that they make. Whether you visit the restaurant or you order home, you’ll be delightful always to have their food.
If I’m Kolkata someone knows South Indian food like we get in South India then it has to be Raj Restaurant.

I would recommend all to visit the place.

This restaurant is located in Monohor Pukur Road,Hazra-just in backside of Hazra-Ballygunge,Hazra-Tollygunge Autostand.
Though the restaurant may look like crowdy from outside,but it is actually spacious enough.
They serve South Indian food and we took one sada dosa,one mashala dosa,one plate fried idli and two lassi(salted). Total it took Rs.495.
The service was quick and the staff were good.
Dosa size is one of the largest dosa in the city and they tasty and crispy too. I had tried fried idli for the first time anywhere and it was good.
Only bad thing was the lassi,it was too salted.

Especially enjoyed the pizza here. The best thing about the pizza is that it is made from 100% fresh ingredients and tastes refreshing.

Sometimes the dosa batter here is a little fermented what if you come here early in the morning may be that dosa will be better.

I've also tried the Thali and it is also very delicious especially the Sambhar.

I will be near many many times and would recommend everybody to visit this place

What better way to start your lazy Sunday mornings, than with this special coffee at Hotel Homely Raj or Raj restaurant as it is popularly known in the Locality. Known for it famous dosas and other south Indian delicacies, this place is usually crowded during the breakfast hours.
Considering the sizes of the dosas, i'd say get 1 dosa for two people, if you do not want to start your day with a really heavy stomach. I visited with my family and got the cheese masala dosa, plain masala dosa and the puri. But highlight of the breakfast was this coffe at the end. It is advertised in their indoor screen as "Dancing Coffee" because u can see the swirling milk interact with the dark coffee beneath. But beware, it is twice the normal shot of a coffee. So it is better split between two people. And look out for the milk foam on the top, scoop it up and try to taste with your tongue.

P.S. it was my papa's recommendation. I didn't expect this to be such a good experience.

Brought home delivery via an app delivery service. So I can only comment about the food packaging & quality.
I ordered 2 plates of idli and 1 plate of Sada vada. Each plate has 2 pieces. Each plate was packed wonderfully in a segmented tray with compartments for idli/vada, sambar and white chutney. I was impressed by their packaging.
Coming to the quality, it was top notch. The quantity of each item was also good.

I have been going to this eatery ever since I was little with mom Sakuntala Ray Chaudhuri. The paper masala dosa and filter coffee are our favourites but we have also tried their onion uttapams, cheese sada dosas, idlis and vadas.
The place is always full as their coconut chutney and sambhar is legendary. It's nothing to write home about, just tables and chairs in a big room with bustling servers weaving through them but the food is authentic South Indian.
Only recently did we order in from here and tried out the lemon rice. Fragrant yellow rice was served with pickles and burnt chillies (that's a fab accompaniment) and I personally loved it.

One of the oldest and best South indian restaurants of kolkata. Been visiting this place since I was a kid :P

The ambience is very old school and the staffs are courteous and friendly. The food ofcourse is authentic South indian style. We had ordered a Sunday special South indian thali, Masala Dosas and a 4 cheese pizza (yes they have options for pizza too). The South indian thali ( recommended) came with an array of different vegetable curries , dal, sambhar,rasam as well as ghee-bhaat, 4 puris and a sweet plus sour curd. In short, do not attempt to finish this thali alone especially if u have a small appetite.
The Dosas were good, a little to sour for my taste but nonetheless good for everyone else. The sambhar and chutney is a one time thing and taking extra is chargeable. The pizza was delicious tho, cheesy and warm and definitely recommended.
Overall a good experience.

Went to this place after ages. Ambience is poor but food is great. Mini thalis are a must try. Soft idlis and crisp wada. I had the rasam too it was nice hot and spicy. 2 negatives of the place. Cleanliness needs to improve And Soft drink served is fountain which lacks the taste and it hardly has any fizz.

It's a deluxe South Indian vegetarian restaurant where I visited in order to relish the delicacies that they had to offer. These are the following pros and cons, which I personally experienced at the Raj Restaurant. Pros :- 1) Centrally located & very close to the Jatin Das Park metro station. 2) Premium quality vegetarian dishes. 3) Pleasant restaurant ambience & fully air conditioned. 4) Widest range of Dosa varieties. Cons :- 1) Extremely costly, even a basic cup of tea will cost you ₹70 here. 2) Slow customer service. 3) Quantity is too less when compared to the price being charged. 4) Not all the foods on the menu are available all the time. Recommended only for a premium dining experience. 👍🏻

Located at 10/2, Manoharpukur Road, Kolkata, West Bengal 700026 Raj is a South Indian restaurant. They specialize in South Indian cuisine, but they also provide Chinese, Italian and other food items. Try the masala dosa, cheese dosa, filter coffee, idly, medu vada, sizzler and pizzas. Moderately on the expensive side, average ambience though air conditioned, average staff behaviour are the highlights of this place.
