Awesome food at a convenient price. Their Macher Chop is to die for. Eager to try other items like the Bhetki Batterfry, Dimer Devil etc.
And awesome place and yummy place.much recommended.their food was very tasty.it was bast place to have snacks.i love their burgers..
Ordered Devilled eggs, Mocha Chops and Fish fries from this outlet .
The Devilled eggs were very tasty with a perfect outer layer of kheema covered by crunchy crumb layer. Left me craving for more actually.
Mocha chops were tasty but not outstanding. The fish fries were again very very tasty.
Must try more of their stuff.
This is a small take home outlet with young boys as staff. I wanted to pick some fries so I chose it. Strange it may seem but instead of choosing fish I chose chicken fries. It was parcelled securely. The pieces were small but enough for two of us. However it sort of dries the throat after eating. The price is moderate and parking available.
First time tried their chicken shami kebab roll and it was delicious. Packing was also good and delivery by zomato on time.... Thumbs up to both of them - Machhli Baba and Zomato👍👍👍👍
Great Bengali snack food. Surely the best around.the rolls are not the regular road side ones. Great value for money. I hope they open a sit down place.
Machhli Baba started with the fresh fish business and now have expanded into serving delicacies on your platter. Machhli Baba Fries is what they have christened this venture and have built up quite a reputation for themselves in this short space of time. No doubting the quality of food served, but they will be better off increasing the size of the portions. The fish items are class, but the other ones (read: chicken), though not bad, fail to match their fish counterparts. So, there is a scope of improvement in that department. The Dimer Devil is another item to savour. Food is prepared in utmost hygienic conditions too and that is a huge positive. The mustard sauce (Kashundi) that they provide along with the savouries has quite a knock out punch....by far the best and that too by quite some distance.
All in all a good place to order from and they can only get better.
This joint is situated at lake view road.we ordered fish finger.packaging is very good.food taste is awesome.staffs are friendly.service is prompt.i like the food.highly recomended for quick bites...
Wonderful food most authentic . Their Kolkata Bhetki Fries are out of the world . Combo meals are tasty hygienic and conveniently packed in microwave safe pack . Most authentic kolkata snacks under one roof .
Being a Vegan foodie I always search for vegan options in each and every food outlets. The Mochar chop is just too yummy which melts in your mouth. It's a must try for all of you.
I would rather suggest to bring some more veg ready to fry options like "corn cutlet" or "soya chunks"
Hope you will look into this matter.
Thanks.

This outlet is located in garihat ac market near ekdalia.
We ordered in kolkata bhetki fry and chicken cheese balls.
I would use only one word to describe the food
"Awesome".
Whoever has the brains behind the theme and packaging,has really got some taste and sense about color.
The blue and yellow combination is equally nice to the taste and quality of food.
These chaps are new and I hear it’s a concern of Bhojori Manna.
Modeled after the fish and chip shops in the UK
Certainly know how to fry up their offerings !!! Crispy fried chops is what I need and what I advocated to all and sundry - specially their mutton chops.
Their combos are the typical pulao and if they offer plain rice , they’ll find more takers.
Pricing is higher than Campari or others in the vicinity and their Triangular Park outlet (which I visited) certainly needs some HACCP training - they use both fat fryers for meat and vegetable offerings but barring that , the taste has been consistent.
Hopefully they increase their presence across the city / country.
I am regularly getting food from this outlet. It's located very close to the Ballygunge Cultural Puja Mandap .
I prefer the Alur Dom , Ghugni , Mochar Chop , Egg Devil , Bhetki Binuni , Kolkata Bhetki fry etc . As far as the quality is concerned it's good but the price is on the higher side especially for the vegetarian items . Of late I am finding that the quantity and the quality of the hot cake item - Ghugni is deteriorating. I have placed comments on that but the outlet have not taken any actions . Overall it's good for evening food .
A small, quaint, cosy little shop catering to the lovers of fried stuff/grubs. Located at a strategic corner amidst the hustle-bustle of the market this is surely a must-visit for fish lovers.
We have usually ordered their stuff at home since it's a takeaway joint. They do have a couple of plastic chairs for the occasional patrons to sit and devour their stuff.
Their bhetki fry is steaming hot, fresh, juicy and minimally invaded with the bread crumbs and batter. The prawn batter-fry are also worth a try.
But their forte seems to be the bhetki fry. Of course, how can I forget the Kasundi accompanying it- is the stuff to kill for - strong, pungent and it really hits your nostrils!
Ordered through swiggy - from salt lake - not really sure if its this branch. But anyway, coming to the food, both chicken and mutton were tasty. Pulao quantity is small but its nice. The paratha was really dry and elastic. Also they missed delivering one item which was sent separately after i lodged a complaint with swiggy.
But food taste is definitely nice - worth a try.
Opposite to bazaar kolkata near the ballygunge AC market you will find this small store selling peeping hot fish items at a very affordable price. Getting real hungry after a lot of shopping I ordered a bhetki batter fry. It was served in no time with mustard and chilli. Stuffed with ample amount of basa , crisp from outside and a tender layer inside , the fry tasted heavenly. Also the stuff is very well behaved. Definitely going to try their other delicacies. Just to mention they charge 12% gst. Definitely recommended. :)
A place to get all types of fried fish items, Machhli Baba also has other items like ghugni, paratha, pulao, kosha mangsho etc. All item quantities are prepared for one person. There are a couple of chairs placed outside the shop where you can sit down and have your good, but it's better to pack and take home or have it on the go. I have tried the Bhetki fish fry and the Machher Chop. The filling in both were substantial, the crumbing was thinking, and the taste was good. It wasn't too oily and packed nicely. Overall, a slightly fancier place to have your regular fish fries and fish chops!

Bengalis find it difficult to have a meal without fish in the platter. So these quirky named outlets, coming with crispy fishy snacks are just spoiling us like anything. Machli baba's offering from chops, cutlets to fish fries and fish fingers are toooo yummy. I had an interaction with one of the owners who also happen to be our first 'topshe', a few months back. He is really very passionate to reach out to the ever growing fishy appetite of bengalis. I recommend this outlet as it is a must visit for all.
Machhli Baba Fries is a happening fixture in the Bengali food scene in Kolkata; they've introduced some Bong favorites like pomfret fry, mochar chop, kosha mangsho etc. The name alludes to the famous Machhli Baba character in Ray's film Joi Baba Felunath.
We being personally acquainted with the owner, none other than Topshe from Sonar Kella (who also runs the Bhojohori Manna outlets), had been warmly invited to try their new offerings.
We indulged in savouring their Kolkata Bhetki Fry, Kolkata Bhetki Batter Fry, Mutton Chop and Mutton Cutlet.
The fries were delicious, prepared and stuffed with the freshest quality bekti fish, coated well with the perfectly crisp batter and bread crumbs. The chops and cutlet too were tastefully pleasant.
For quality taste, smell and feel of quintessential Bengali "fish fry" or other lovely snacks and goodies, one can check out these quirkily-named outlets.
The Diamond Cut Fish Fry is the most true representation of what authentic Bengali gastronomic delight stands for. It is reminiscent of typical Bangali Biyebarir Bhoj where people gathered in sultry evenings would endure the extreme test of temptation by soaking in the smell of bhetki pervaded everywhere. Secret lies in well-marinated superior quality fish garbed in a perfectly crisp coat. I had smuggled half a dozen of these for my friends at Bangalore and it tasted equally good even after the passing away of half a day.
For not so bright days, the paratha and aloor dam will substantially weave in its magic.
This joint is a MUST for everyone out there.
I had a delicious Kolkata Bhetki Fry and a Fish Batter Fry from Machhli Baba Fries, and I must say it's one of the best fish fries I have tried. They prepare it in front of you in a live counter. It was juicy and absolutely delicious.
Macchli Baba Fries in Lake View Road is a new joint that serves good fried fish, egg and chicken items. Those fond of Fish and deep fried item can have some fresh stuff. Better to pack things and have it at home if you stay nearby. Good effort from our very own Topshe, Mr. Siddhartha Chatterjee.
There's only one set of chair,which was preoccupied.So it's just like a food stall.No place to sit.
I just took the bhetki fry( fish fry).
It costs rs.110, including the 18% gst.
The crust is super thin,crispy.
The slice was really thin too,but absolutely fresh and perfect in taste.
But considering rs. 110 for one thin fish fry,where its competitors are providing 2fries (not so good in quality but still) in the same cost,makes it unreasonable, especially to us college students.
Had food delivered at home from here. They deliver for free within a 5km radius. Had Kolkata Bhetki Fry,Kolkata Bhetki Roll,Phulkopir Singara,Machher Chop. The fish items came in pieces.The Singara was pretty tasty and cheap. The fish items were okay. Good for one try.
It's a one of a kind fried fish joint which is slowly carving a niche of its own. Visited this place last month and it was a good experience. Had been looking forward to visiting Topshe's brain child. We had bhetki fry, prawn cutlet, chicken cutlet and fish roll. Everything was fresh and tasted great. Personal favorite was the bhetki and fish roll( which had a few Bones in it). They also serve porota,alur dom which is great. Haven't tried that yet. But looking forward to my best visit.
It is a good place to have snacks. The taste of fish items are ok. But the place is very small. The shop is totally covered by the shops on the footpath. So, little bit hard to find. It is a good place to have snacks if you are in this location.

A very recent venture by the much famed Bhojohori Manna group. They have earlier launched a raw fish retailing chain by this name. Now here comes this.
Few days back, while passing by, came to this place to try out some fries. Tried the Maachher Chop and Fish Fry.
Maachher Chop - Tasted very good. Charged around 35 INR, I don't think that the fish was Bhetki. There was a fish bone in the chop which needs to be checked further. The minced fish tasted good otherwise, so was the coating and the crumb.
Kolkata Bhetki Fry - The typical Bangali Fish Fry. Cut into diamond shapes and then fried, this item was nothing extraordinary. Okay for trying once.
Nothing fancy, nothing exclusive. Pricing is pocket friendly. Good to grab some munchies if you're in this area the next time.
Just beside Ballygunje Ac market this shop can be the best place for fish lover. Problem with the shop is it is small in size and there are no places to sit except the stool at footpath. Rest is all good. We tried prawn batter fry and chicken cutlet. Both were fresh . Prawn was tender and taste awesome. Will try their fish fry soon
Super quality worth a revisit. One of the very places selling Kolkata Bhetki fry , Mangshor singhara , Mutton Chop , fish chop and Ghugni .
Amazing offering all under one roof .
A spin off from Bhaja Hari Manna this place is destined to make a place in the hearts of the fish loving Bengalis. The menu boasts the classics from a Bengali Kitchen and provides the ideal quick bite to the thousands of people who flock in Gariahat for shopping. The place is small and moderately priced. The food is good and the service is swift. However it gets crowded at times and can make you cramped for space.
Right beside Ballygunge AC Market, is this small shop selling a variety of fried food, focussing on fish. The food here is in the form of Chop, Cutlet, Bhaja without any extra frills. Their hearty Fish Fry was on point in taste, and hence this place is worth a try.
If you wish to eat your lunch order for tea and your tea order for dinner...go ahead. I ordered at 2 pm and received my parcel at 5. The food is really spicy as well. I will really think twice before I order again.
Excellent fry shop, fry taste According to bengali standard. But Rolls have 15 min wait time. It is a counter and take away is preferred. Had chicken fry, size of chicken in ok.
Foods are great 😃👍 We love those Items 😃
We ordered fish finger amidst pandal hopping, the stall was near Ballygunge Cultural Puja Pandal. The food quality was amazing. It was Bhetki fish, the taste was amazing. Highly recommended to try out any fish item and avoid chicken and mutton, because afterall , it's "Machhli Baba"
I ordered Machhli Baba fish chop and fish fry through Swiggy. The food was perfect regarding taste and proportion. As a critical foodie I am satisfied after a long time
Being a typical fish fry lover. I can assure that this is one of the most promising place to have fish fry. Highly recommended. Staff's behaviour is also very good.
I ordered through zomato this is the 3rd I ordered I like the food fish kachori is soft but couldn't find fish aloor sum was good but spicy I like the fish chop chicken croquette & cheese chicken meatballs too .they must provide some salad for the chop which shown in the pics .price is little bit high
Good stuff! Only take away or roadside eating option. Food is good.
The food is really good. Specially the rolls and fish fry. I did try their fish mughlai paratha and it was great.
Amazing fish fry! A must try!
Ordered at home.. french fries and moghlai Paratha.. it was yummyyy.. the aaloo sabji was out of the world.. 5 star to food..
Nice fries made from really good and fresh stuff. Taste wise absolutely great. This place doesn't have any seating arrangements. Their fish items, all of them are a must try. Prices slightly on the higher side. Highly recommended from my end.
Superb place for Fish Lovers as they have wide variety of Fish starters. Good Quality of Bhetki Fish is used for preparations that gives the perfect taste to the delicacy. Only problem is that they don't have seating arrangements which is also avoided by many in the present situation and you have to take away/ online order.
The food was unbelievable. Everything was outstandingly fresh and delicious.
