It's weird but except for the food and basic decor I liked nothing about this place. They have really bad lighting which demeans the huge space which could have been lit in a better way.
Coming to the food, we ordered mac and cheese and a pizza. Both were extremely well prepared. The staff is courteous.
Also, when we visited some B-Day party was going on in the ground floor and the blasting music kinda put out the mood of a café. Inspite of asking them to help us out there they showed their helplessness but in that case they shouldn't have allowed other parties to come in when the party was going on.
A good place to catch up drinks with friends. The decor is nice, a rustic feeling. The service is prompt. Good that they are serving draught beer. The chilli beef is a must try.
Decor- 5/5
Food n drinks- 5/5
Service- 6/5
You will fall in love with the place from the time you step in. Decor is awesome. Great music being played at the first floor. If you want a little quieter place, sit upstairs.
The service is very good. People are very polite while serving the customers.
Cocktails and mocktails are very innovative. Try the bacon wrapped prawn for sure....
My only visit to bodega has been a short one , but i liked the place spread over the two floors , the lower being a pub with high tables and loud music , while the upper having a more comfortable and well spaced lounge area apt for dining. The starter Chicken Pathani Tikka was a nice one , however the Spicy Keema pizza had scanty lamb toppings but loved the thin crust amply loaded with cheese. We had beer and Sangria to wash down the food. Music is played at soothing levels on the upper floor , hence chose this place if you are looking for a relaxed outing .
I was told about Bodega by a friend. I wasn't expecting much but I was simply stunned. The ambience , the decor and moreover by the deserts. Guys it's a must visit, it's the perfect place for dates.

Well, unplanned visits are always the best they say.. and just found out how true it was after visiting this place.. that too on a very special occasion.
From the moment i entered and till my exit, there was never a dull moment in between. The place is so vibrant and full of life. Be it the abstract interiors or the waiters and waitresses or the DJ in the groundfloor or the rich content of the menu card, every bit of it is praiseworthy.
Coming to the bar menu, I was absolutlely clean bowled by their innovative and extraordinary cocktail collection. We tried their GOBLET of FIRE, The MISSIONARY DOCTOR, the SPRING BREAK and THE BUBBLING BOMBAY.. The presentations of all the four were simply a treat to the eyes.. and taking the sips blew my mind away!! The bubbling bombay needs a special mention.. the most unbelievable combination of ingredients in the best way possible.!
Coming to food, we ordered bacon wrapped prawns( my all time favourite) and beef chilli fry. The prawn-bacon combo was perfectly juicy and there was some white sauce toppings which added an extra twist to the dish. The beef chilli fry was hot and spicy and irresistible!
What makes this place more awesome is the location and the prices.. Prices are absolutely at par with what they serve.
And I can, without any doubt, say that this place is one of its kind in the city.. there's something which makes this place a bit extra special and different from all other pubs or bars in the city.
Do visit it to experience the difference, and I'm sure no soul will return disappointed from this place!
Its nearer to park street metro station and just a walk of 10mins..
I went there with my friends and we enjoyed the ambience as well as food quality very much...its actually a real cool place with an awsome ambience..behaviors of staffs r good..
We ordered Lemon iced tea,red lit, and gondoraj mojito for drinks...Gondhoraj mojito was superbb...it was very refreshing and perfectly balanced...
Went there with my friends on Thursday evening..This place is situated in Park center,Park Street.. Ambience was okay, Interior decor was good..
Food quality was upto the mark..We gave ordered - Chicken wings, Vietnamese Basa fritters and Tangra chicken - All are good. Service was also prompt..But one thing which i didn't like was that they added service charge with the total bill amount.Once we denied to pay the Service chrge then they have deducted that S.T amount.. Otherwise it was a decent experience..
Awesome place to hang out with friends... Loud music will hit ur ears...
Must go place for group of frnds who likes to drink....
Loved it.....................
Food was upto the mark but service was terrible. Even though the place was almost empty, the waiters were forgetting to serve half of things we were ordering. We ordered The Great Gatsby and Shades of Grey on their suggestion. The Great Gatsby was all stuffed with ice. It was like 70% ice and rest real cocktail. The taste was good though. Coming to the food, everything was more or less delicious. The pizza deserves a special mention, it was probably the best pizza I ever had. Also, food quantity is tiny. Aniket Mallick
Bodega Cantine Y Bar is located in park street near whats in d name, has both casual dining and bar.
Ambience is great there and even the place is preety. Food is just amazing and can’t be expressed in words.
Must try there is potato tornado and bodega bomb.
An amazing place to chill out with your friends. We tried the Cocktail Goblet of Fire , Kamikaze shots and two more Cocktails .The people at the bar are very friendly and nice .Special mention goes to Jyoti for her amazing hospitality and giving us one shot of complimentary drinks too.They made sure we have a gala time there with the right music and the atmosphere.
Went here for lunch with a friend and the food was absolutely wonderful.From preparation to presentation, it was very pleasing. We specially enjoyed the Tangra chilli Chicken, which was a perfect amalgamation of sour and spice .
Looking forward to visiting this place again.

It was christmas and I had an eye on this place for long.. Finally got a chance to drop in.. We reached here during the lunch hours. This place was way less crowded than other places in Park Street so we were kinda happy about that. Let me come to the review of this place and the food
*Decor : It has two levels . The ground level being the bar and hookah place. The top level is where we decided to go for and I instantly fell for the quirky and cute decor.. This was the perfect kind of insta picturesque place.. Vintage stuff, pop art, abstract decor.. In a word it was pretty
Rate - 5/5
*Food : let's come to the main part.. We ordered four dishes
1. Chicken Bao : cotton soft bao with tangy chicken and veggies filling.. They hade gondhoraj lemon zest which elevated the task of the entire dish
Rate - 5/5
2. Soupy dumpling bowl : tangy soup with flat noodles and chicken dumpling served with egg. This dish was huge in quantity. A single bowl can fill two hungry stomachs easily.. Very light in taste prefect amount of spice and tang..
Rate - 4.5/5
3. Shroom balls : cheese and mushroom balls.. Well they were a disaster I must say.. They had a weird taste and a weird smell too .. We couldn't eat the dish as it was making us nauseous.. But the best part is that the staff changed the dish immediately and adjusted the price with the dessert.
Rate - well let's just leave that
4. Bodega bomba : the dessert looked so pretty the presentation was so adorable that I literally didn't wanted to destroy the dessert... Everything on the plate was candy pink.. A red velvet cake with raspberry crush, and a raspberry sorbet.. Its tasted good as well but the presentation is what took my heart away
Rate - taste : 3. 8/5
presentation : 10/5 :p
The Staff were really well behaved and attentive
Over all I rate this place a 4.5/5
Its worth a visit

Ambience was good music was good, drinks also good ,but the main part is ....they charge service charge on ur bill, see the bill prpperly and ask the management, to change the bill...and they deduct the bill..so friends please pay for that what u eat ......
Food was really amazing, loved the grilled chicken 😍. The ambience was really cool. Prime location.
Nice place to chill and have proper food.
Thank you for the amazing service
Nice cozy small place with excellent cocktails. Had tried this place few days ago and I was very happy to see Kolkata has come up with places which are good to hangout. Decor is great service is good. Food was okay nothing great but not bad either. Pocket pinch minimal and a must place to visit.

A pretty interesting place to party with your close ones. My favourite destination while I come during festive seasons to Kolkata. The shots and some of the cocktails are truly amazing , and the live music or the DJ adds more to it. One of the best places to visit in Park Street. Look for a table downstairs where the DJ is present and enjoy your time.
This is good place to chill over some amazing cocktails with friends. We ordered The Great Gatsby and Shades of Grey. Their presentation is beautiful ❤ Great Gatsby was a treat to the eyes. The white bubbles were coming out of it. It was whiskey based and tasted like coconut water. Shades of Grey was amazing too. It was vodka based. And fumes were coming out of it. A coconut shell was placed on top of it. It was tasting superb. Both of their quantity was huge. Ambience wise was good too. Their only fault was their volume of music. Ground floor was too loud whereas first floor was too low. Other than that I loved this place totally.
:)
Super fancy decor. Good food. They have some unusual cocktails on their bar menu and super fancy desserts. Different events take place there. For ex. Speed Meet, Kolkata's first Speed Dating Event was held there.
really nice place! good and spacious! the ambience is also nice.Though i had gone there with a little less appetite than usual , i did manage to over eat.I had visited here quite a while back so i will try my best to justify this memory with whatever my memory can help me with. Though my palate memory is intact so nothing beyond that i guess.To start with i had the Baked brie , very well presented with assortments of salads and fruits and a decent portion of brie cheese baked inside a pastry. The taste was really nice but i have had better quality of brie in Kolkata in other places. Then i ordered a vietnamese coffee . It was brilliant , i actually took another serving of that. After the two followed the main course which was an asian meal / bowl with teriyaki sauce. The taste was good but nothing out of the world.
Overall a good experience . Hopefully will visit once more with some more appetite!
Bit hard to find but good quiet place. The food was quite good with very large portions. Got the opportunity to try out new dishes and new teas. Over all a good experience.
Nice cocktails ... Good food... Great plating...and amazing service...
... We sat up in the restaurant... And loved the place... Do try the Korean Chicken Bao...
And beef chilly was so tasty...
Ended it with the Rocher!! Yummy!
Music volume was perfect too for conversations.
Will be coming back!
Happened to visit this place last Friday and it was a good experience. The quirky decor accentuated with some foot tapping music leaves a lasting impression on the customers. The food is good. I had some Bbq chicken pizza, Nachos and some Tacos coupled with Gondhoraj Mojito. The food was fresh and lip smacking.
The long windows will provide ample sunshine to cozy up with a book on winter afternoons. It's a must visit if you want to catch up with some friends or your partner. Price is reasonable too.
Checked into the place with my bro. The staff were courteous enough. The food portions were really small like Really Small. However the food was quite yummy. Really liked the steak. Recommended steak with fav drinks.. We had Draft beer Barrel..
P. S They charge 7.5% service charge.
Came here to have a nice 'chilled out' time with friends and letting my hair down after a long weekend. And a nice chilled time I did have. Along with discussions on politics and the state of affairs. The place is fantastically done up. It's got a fresh vibe to it, and since I had just tried a few finger foods I am limiting my review just till there. Having said that, Their menu did look like these guys had really put in a lot of effort and tried to recreate and experiment. Something like that always wins my vote. So based on the appetizers and the good time that I had served up by this place I would recommend this place a good visit on a Saturday night when you just want to unwind with buddies and relax.
Visited this place with a friend of mine on Friday night. This place is just beside WIDN, and consists of two floors, the first floor being a sort of small bar/pub whereas the second floor is like a family style restaurant.
My friend is well known in their restaurant as he conducted numerous wine training practices with them and hence we got some free beers and mock tails on the house. In my own personal experience, they play really loud music so if you wanna smoke shisha and talk with your friends, trust me, your voice will get drowned in the music. The food was really good, we had pasta in white sauce. The manager was really nice as well, along with their servers.
The hookah and the food costed us rs1200+, not including the beers and the mock tail. It is a bit expensive but the experience is worth it.

Located opposite the Allen Park entrance, Bodega Cantina Y Bar is sprawled over a wide area. On entering there is a seating arrangement in the ground floor, with high chairs and wall hangings all around. The main diner is upstairs, which is nicely decorated with ample lighting. From a Bar cum Restro of such likes, one is expected to have high hopes automatically, and so did I, only to be disappointed at the end. To start with, most of the items from the food menu were not available, specially the Non Veg Chakna Box that I wanted to try out. Nevertheless, we opted for Chicken Wings which had portion too little to suffice for even one person. The only good thing was the innovative cocktails served with a twist. So, don't expect too much from this place when it comes to food, though you can surely visit to try their wide range of quirky cocktails.
I would think twice before visiting again.
Food was amazing, just amazing. Black spiced grilled chicken, nona chicken these dishes were really fabulous. Pizza was too good. Service was nice, those who loves chicken must visit this place. You will love it.
Words would fall short to describe how amazing foods are being served by them. Would love to visit it again.
The desserts were goods so as Pizzas. Thin crust pizzas were soft and crunchy and lovely in taste.
Chicken and chips were nice. And chicken in tangra style was really goood. I loved the chopsuey as well.
Decent food - we had the veg loaded nachos, char sui veg bao, Asian veg noodle soup, risotto, veg Caesar salad, watermelon mojito.
Noodle soup was average, others were quite good.

Bodega cantina y bar,the name is quite a mouthful. Located near barbeque nation park Street this place is quietly building a reportaire for themselves.it was suggested many times by friends and being on my home turf I gotta had to check it out.
Ambience- the club atmosphere below is rocking and the restaurant above is charming enough. There is something to offer to every kind of person.the party animal to the quiet brooding intellectual.
Food- I did not try much of food but whatever I had it was very tasty n I enjoyed eating it but the real stars are the drinks. The drinks are very innovative specially the bhang one and a lotta effort is put on there presentation as each drink had it's own look n effect. There is lotta variety in cocktails so cheers.
Service- warm enough,the people were gracious and serving time was also not long.
Price- tad overpriced but nothing exorbitant.
Overall highly recommended,loved the place n will come back for seconds n maybe thirds. Just drop in n have a lovely time.
Visited this place on a very special day with a very dear Guest and I was so happy that my visit ddnt go in vain.
The food was delicious.
Gondhoraj infused fried Bass and cheese fondue. Pretty decent presentation as well.
What really blew my mind was the simplicity and taste of the beverages we ordered.
A mejico mule which was an absolute delight and beautifully created. And a non alcoholic Kiwi and basil refresher which was amazing equally.
Yeah, the prices are a bit on the higher end but when you get good stuff, the crunch doesn't hurt.
Decor of the place is so cool. A mix of retro, vintage and modern.
I will surely visit the place again.
:)
Had heard a lot about this place and therefore decided to head over. I liked the empanadas and bhetki starter. However the cocktail was way too sweet for me. The music is good. However I was expecting a bit more from this place.
I had been with friends on a weekend evening.
Great ambience, good service , decent crowd can hangout with friends after work.
Prices are little high compared to other outlets near by...
If you are looking for a pocket friendly place this is not for you. However if you are looking for some tempting food with lots of innovation and fun twists ... this is the place. Their cocktails are fansy and will definitely attract your attention.. pork belly... chicken chips.. Parsi food.... excellent !!!
This place is quite cool, and impressive. Food was very good. Decor was simple yet good.
We ordered beef chilli fried, beef momo, bacon wrapped prawn, pizza. Beef chilli fried and beef momo just won my heart. Now, let's come to drinks. We had kamakazi, one vodka cocktail , and goblet of fire (literally it was fire :D). Prices were overpriced and that's the reason I deducted the points. It can be visited second time without having any doubt.
P.s: Please visit washroom atleast once, you will get something surprising.

The name of this establishment itself is intriguing enough to pull a curious foodie like me.. On top of that the wide array of interesting cuisines and lesser heard dishes are definitely a plus.. Located close to Allen Park, on the crossing leading to Camac Street, this place is a paradise for foodies willing to experiment with flavors and ingredients.. We were seated in the outer section with a bar and few high tables.. Even the chairs were innovative and each table consists of differently designed chairs.. They also have a small smoking room.. What's interesting is the fact that most of their servers were woman.. Service could definitely improve big time in terms of serving time, courteousness and professionalism.. This place gets extra brownie points for their aesthetic presentation of dishes, more like contemporary global cuisine.. Coming to the FnB we zeroed on:
Activated Charcoal Martini: Sadly the activated charcoal was not available that day, but who cares when you get to sip on a magical concoction of Kahlua and Absolut, topped with espresso coffee.. Slightly bitter, may not be suitable for everyone's palate..
Beef Chili Fry: Lip smacking to say the least.. Spicy, sourly, and the beef was cooked to perfection.. Silky, smooth texture, not at all chewy or gummy, and devoid of any extra fat.. Served with hot Pao..
Korean Fried Chicken Bao: Chicken deep fried and wrapped inside bao made from fermented dough.. Korean version of burger with the hot sriracha sauce, lettuce and veggies..
Arabic Lamb Curry: Middle eastern curry dish served with Persian Pilaf and a sweetened chili date chutney.. The pilaf was subtle in flavor, nice aroma and the lamb curry was more like the Bengali mutton kosha.. Overall portion was suitable for twin sharing..
Passion Fruit Brulee: Simply outstanding.. So many components on the plate yet beautifully synchronized into a single dish.. Loved the presentation.. The charcoal sponge tasted heavenly with the tropical sorbet, the mango and lime coulis was also innovatively plated up.. Passionately Recommended..
Along with the above food we also took 2 Pint bottles of Carlsberg.. Overall, it's an unique experience to say the least.. The music, the vibes, the food everything leave you with complete satisfaction.. Although a bit pricey but given the amazing skills the chef displayed, we can afford the experience once in a while.. Our total cheque was Rs. 2630/- (all incl.) for 2 people as they charged 10% extra ST..

Had heard so much about this place that we decided to try it out on a Sunday evening! The door opened, there is a ground floor seating arena with the bar. The vividly descriptive stairs led to the upper floor which had a mix of comfortable sofas and chairs. Dimly lit ambiance, which kept on fluctuating thanks to the voltage fluctuation. It was a meal timed between a heavy lunch and a late dinner hence could not try much.
Cocktail - Charcoal Martini
Desserts - These are the probably only thing you should come for!
Bodega Bomba
- Okay ish. Looked pretty.
Japanese Cheese Cake
- tasted okay. Too many elements added to the flavor.
Sunday Movie Night - The best dessert. Master chef standard dessert, left me extremely happy and wanting for more!
Visited them again - For their Asian Menu Launch.
I wonder, what took so long for Bodega to launch this. Each and every tried on that afternoon assures you of a place which knows its food, and you'll get authentic flavors. An owner who is well versed with her food is the secret to Bodega's success.
Highly recommended - Beef Bulgogi, Jala Roti with Mutton Rendang curry, Pork baozee, Dimsums, Teriyaki Wings and so on.
The cocktails are all named after beautiful locales situated across Asia. Chiang Mai, Beijing, Langkawi - each depicting new flavors and weaving new taste stories.
Desserts _ Mango Sticky Rice, Buttermilk Pannacotta, Chocolate Lah.
Visited this place for lunch and as we were the only ones there we got a good seat. The place is very well decorated with quirky posters and antiques. The menu had a lot to choose from and we ordered the Shroom balls, the Pizza Rustica and Truffle Fettuccine. The Shroom balls and the pizza were good although we thought that the pasta was a little undercooked. The presentation of the dishes was nice and the portion size was also good. The staff were courteous and the service quick. All in all it's a lovely place to hang out with your friends and family.
Bodega cantina y bar is located in park streer area..their continental is great. Awesome place with great decor and good location , highly recommend
ABSOLUTELY in love with the place. I was there with a friend and although he hated the cocktail (the Great Gatsby),I loved it. The ambience was very relaxing. We ordered the beef chilli fry and black spiced grilled chicken. Couldn't point out any flaws with them. The beef was cooked to perfection and the jus with the chicken was heavenly.
For dessert we had the bodega bomba. It was almost too pretty to eat. Turns out it tasted even better. Want to try the other desserts really bad.
Can't wait to visit again! (Don't know why it's so underrated)
Really a nice plce............ Lot of good food.. Uttam was best as always..... Avisheakta Nd nuanpui.. Was excellent.... Very nice..just like being in Hard Rock Cafe in kolkata
The quality of food is good. Staffs are very friendly and nice. The only drawback was I had ordered two different flavoured teas both were bad.
Food: we ordered cheese cigars, frittatas (nachos with potato chips instead of corn chips) and quesadillas. The cheese cigars were served piping hot (1 serving had 6 mini pieces) and was sumptuous. The frittatas topped with cream, were served with salsa and a cheese dip. We felt they were a good alternative to good ol' nachos. The quesadillas were a bit heavy and the pieces were cut sized a lil too big. Three of us gals were able to do justice to only half the plateful served.
Cocktails: We ordered the Garden of Zen (photo attached) it was a nice concoction of Thai fruits and vodka, very fresh and light. The presentation is something to look out for.
Ambience: The music was the latest on the charts and the service was very prompt and staff was friendly and courteous.
Would highly recommend this place for its cocktails.

Stands just beside allen park, in the heart of park street.
Talking about this place, well it has a wonderful decor to add to the mood. The concept and the minute things up here makes it a treat for the visiters.
Coming down to the food now.
It has a pretty mentionable number.
Chicken chips , Empanadas and Patatas bravas are ones i liked a lot.
The pocket pinch for this place is a little heavy.
So you are looking to spend a little and enjoy with a bunch of buddies this is the right place for you.
![Zomato]( "Recensione")
I've been here twice or thrice, and I do like the place. However, it is slightly overrated. I appreciate the value they place on presentation, and I like the pork belly here over the one at Mamagoto, but in terms of taste and value for the paying customer, it falls a bit short.
The standout dishes from my times here are: Mushroom Pizza, Cheese Fondue (it was pure foodgasm looking at it!), Bacon-wrapped prawn, and the pork belly. I'd recommend the tenderloin as well, but only if you like it either well-dome, or very rare. My medium rare came back nearly raw, and then overdone. The pork belly, on the other hand, was beautifully soft, and exceptionally tasty.
About the cocktails, I'd strongly urge to try the Tiramisu cocktail (not pictured). It is a sweet, beautifully creamy cocktail, and has become a go-to order for the family!
It does hurt your pocket a lot, though, and the mere appearance doesn't justify the prices. The desserts on the other hand, are absolutely value for money! They're innovative, tasty, and a sight behold! I'd recommend everything on the dessert menu except the Campfire. It's awkward to have, and isn't anything very great, though it is the most impressive to look at. The ambiance is loud, stemming from the club downstairs. It isn't something I particularly enjoy, but their cocktails are definitely strong enough to make you forget all of the cons! :D The staff is also very friendly, and was very patient with my extremely confused family, even going out of their way to make a custom dish for my father (which was absolutely amazing and they should definitely put on the menu!)
The unique mixology cocktails on the menu was always on my mind, which finally lead me to Bodega. Went there few days back with a friend. The quirky ambience upstairs was nice with the wall decor was commendable too compared to downstairs, which was kinda shabby.
The best part was the cosmopolitan out of the box cocktail menu. Each of them were unique and well presented. We had 1. Amor Amargo 2. Thai High 3. Dusk to Dawn 4. Tiramisu Martini.
The food was okay type. We had Pickled Chili Prawns Dumplings which was good and we also had Soft Shell Tacos Chicken Tinga and Fondutta Chicken .
The staff's were courteous, smoking room was too small. Overall it was a good experience and I'm only going back to try their other cocktails on the menu :)
...One of the finest places in Kolkata ,that has come in last one year..Their ambience ,...food quality..location..music..staff..everything is good...I love their Mejico Fritas..Quesadilla and stove oven pizza wild mushroom....Their cocktails are also amazing..

I finally managed to visit this place after hearing a lot about the food here. This place has two sections with a bar downstairs and the dining area on top. They have a tiny smoking cabin which smartly fits below the stairs, so good use of free space right there!
They have a good collection of their signature cocktails. We tried their 15 Bloomsbury cocktail which was a unique drink presented beautifully. For starters, we tried their Crispy Pork Belly Salad which was so tasty with the bits of fried moong beans & pomegranate. We also had their Vietnamese Basa Fritters with fried capers and mayo.
For mains, we called for their Pepper Beef Steak which was supposed to be medium rare and we did get medium rare on the plate which a lot of restaurants fail to deliver. The amount of jus however, was a bit too much on the plate. The confit potatoes were delicious.
The dessert we had was their Sunday Movie Night. We loved the concept and the plating of the dessert. It was a sweet end to a good meal.
Went to Bodega recently. What a great refreshing addition to the Food & Beverage trend to Kolkata. Very innovative cocktails & great food selection. Amazing decor, each element reflects the personal style & passion of Urvika Kanoi
It's ambience is good.It has a good variety of food.I loved it's mushrooms cheese balls.Also their drink we're good.
Their prices are reasonable.
Nice place , quirky decor, good food but amazing cocktails and mocktails. Ordered Baja fish taco and bacon wrapped shrimp for the appetiser and Arabic lamb curry and Sichuan pot for mains. Appetiser were really nice specially the shrimp . The portion of Arabic lamb was perfect but Sichuan pot's portion was more. Now if I have to rate the food then
Baja fish taco 4/5
Shirmp n bacon 4.5/5
Arabic lamb 4.5/5
Sichuan pot 4.5/5
Overall it was a good experience. I loved the dress that staffs were wearing. So cool.
I really feel this is the best fusion food restaurant in kolkata! Little heavy on the pocket. But common. Thats what money is for. I highly recommend this place for all the foodies out there!!!
Extremely well decorated,Service is swift and pleasing,food is good (can be better)
I visited today with a friend in the evening,there was a little light outside which slowly faded away.The place looked amazing when there was light outside,you could see small things kept haphazardly together to make such a beautiful decor but as the lights faded,it lost the beauty a little.
The service was swift and they were really nice to us. No complaints there.
We ordered "Goblet of fire" which was a little bitter and not what I expected it to be but the presentation was cool. Followed by Prawns-exquisitely cooked,Asian noodle bowl (chicken thighs) a little spicy and you could feel the textures...it was great.Our lemon ice tea and cold cappuccino was the best part of the meal...everything in proportion in the drinks.That's one of the best iced tea I had in town.
I would visit this again just for the beauty of the place ...2.5hours well spent.

With the ever evolving food scenario of Kolkata comes along Bodega Cantena, just about an year old. but to me it's the Renaissance-Man of Kolkata's good culture. It's Cosmopolitan food menu and out of the box mixology, thanks to award winning mixologist Uttam Singh, makes Bodega the place to go. I have tried 12 of their 27 well-appointed cocktails on the Menu and each of them are unique, special and delicious. The food menu is diverse and very tasteful. So is the garnishing. The food menu also comes with suggestions regarding cocktails for the a-maze-d customer, who may loose their way through the cocktail menu, which borrows a leaf from our Organic Chemistry books. It's tough to rate the food and drinks, but out of the ones I have tried I will undertake the herculean task. I will rank the snacks and small bites as - 1. Churezo bake, 2. Bass fritters and 3. Lamb 🌮 Taco. The cocktails can be ranked as 1. Golden Beet (for being most out of the box), 2. Spring time & Thai high, 3. Activated charcoal martini & Atlantis fizz. There are others which are beautifully served like Missionary Doctor and Dawn to Dusk but my ranking is only on the basis of perfect mixology and not how they are served.
Lovely decor... Amazing presentation... Service on point.. what else does one really need! Pricing was okay... We ordered quite a number of drinks and appetizers ... Overall amazing place to hangout with friends.... Will go back for sure!
Been here last evening.. Ambiance is good. The live screening has added extra coolness in the ambiance. Stuffs are friendly and well behaved. Music is good.
Ambience too good
Spacious and comfortable seating...
Food Quality in superlatives...
Order delay minimum most....
Coordial behaviour adds flavour to the enjoyment.

After hearing a lot of positives about Bodega, decided to drop in on a Saturday evening with a friend. The joint is located at the junction of Park St and Camac Street across Allen Park.
I had reserved a table calling well in advance and I specifically mentioned that I need a table which is close to the TV as there was an IPL match that evening which I wanted to watch.
Upon entering I was directed to the 1st floor which has proper seating but no screens to enjoy the match while dining. Upon inquiring the waitress said that all tables on the ground floor are reserved. This was disappointing as I had specifically asked for a table to be reserved where I can enjoy the cricket match. However after few minutes they shifted us to the ground floor right in front of the huge projector screen :)
They have a special IPL offer going on during the match timings. 799 for unlimited draught beer and 999 for unlimited IMFLs. This seemed like a great deal and went for it. Again the staff was a bit confused about whether 799 included taxes or not and after discussing with their internal team they confirmed that it was inclusive of taxes. Before even starting our drinks and meal we understood that there is lack of co ordination and staff is not accurately informed of the offers. This was quite surprising but the service afterwards was excellent. The staff is generally polite and on their toes.
Along with the drinks we tried the Veg Nachos. We wanted to add a topping of chicken to it but unfortunately that is not an option. The Nachos were quite filling and tasty as it was loaded with cheese and baked beans. The food pricing is slightly more than expected but quantity makes up for it.
The selection of music is great and loud. People who do not like loud music should be seated on the 1st floor as that is not the lounge area. The ground floor is where the bar along with high seating arrangement. Generally people start dancing around the tables after a few drinks :)
Over all I liked the place and I will be back to try their cocktails.
On mother's day, my sister and I took our mom out for casual dining at Bodega. The dining area is spacious with dim lights and modern interiors. The menu has an interesting range of cuisines and the service was delightful. I ordered for a red Sangria while my sister chose to get a latte, mom tried the gunpowder green tea. The sangria was okay and could have been better but the coffee and tea was nice. For starters, we had the Vietnamese basa fritters and pickled chilli prawns, both were delicious and the presentation was gorgeous. For mains we ordered for the chicken steak in black bean sauce and they recommended a pan seared bhekti with spaghetti. The food is really nice and I quite enjoyed it. Because it was mother's day they served us a complementary dessert as well, it wasa combination of red velvet and white chocolate so it can't go wrong, I loved it.
Nice restaurant for foods and drinks, well decorated. You can spend a quality time with your girlfriend, boy friend or friends. The drinks are well served and a varieties of foods are available.
Lovely decor with wonderful ways of serving the food and drinks! That's the most simple way to describe Bodega Cantena Y Bar. Courteous staff members are helpful in suggesting the right ones for your tastebuds. Their way of serving the cocktails is the most innovative part of the restaurant. Would love to visit again!
Visited this place after checking the high ratings on zomato.
Easy to locate. Right beside barbecue nation in park street.
The decor is different but nothing to be totally wooed.
As for drinks, we ordered green LIIT (very refreshing during the scorching heat), shades of grey, and the great gatsby.
Started off with bacon wrapped prawns and chicken tacos. Then ordered slow braised pork belly and spicy keema pizza.
Had their famous bodega bomba and sunday movie night as dessert.
The staff was very courteous.
Honestly speaking, the price to portion ratio was way too high. This would not have been a concern if the food was mind blowing.

This restaurant has been open for quite a while now. It's been long that I have been planning to come here but that didn't quite happen. It was the last weekend that I came here for lunch with my friend Souvik and the experience was pretty good.
Located at the junction of Camac Street and Park Street, it is very easy to locate as there is a marker directing to the restaurant. Entrance being on the ground floor, it is a two storied restaurant. The day we went, there was some session going on at the ground floor, for which we were taken to the first floor. The first floor dining area is comparatively larger, spacious and it has a high abundance of natural light, a thing I am obsessed with. It is decorated in a very quirky way with message posters, doodle art, pop culture books and cute little tits and bits that are required to deck up the household. The staffs were really prompt, efficient and courteous. Next came the food. All of them were delicious. We had ordered -
Shroom Balls - Six balls of shredded mushroom served on a cheesy base of fresh mozarella tasted too good. It was perfectly balanced with the right amount of spicyness and we loved it!
Vietnamese Basa Fritters - Panko crusted basa fish, served six in one portion is a fish lover's delight. It is cover with an inside coat of kasundi and tasted unique in its own kind.
Pickled Chilli Prawn - Six medium sized tender and succulent prawns tossed on a base of Indian mustard, kaffir lime and yogurt. Although there is chilli in the name, it is not too spicy by taste. Recommended to try.
Eggs Kejriwal - People who loved poached eggs should definitely try out this unique thing. Bread topped with mashed potato garnished by a poached double egg and some bhujia to top it off with. Doesn't the whole concept of this sound really tempting? What are you waiting for? Go to Bodega Cantina and try this out!
Desserts -
Trust me the desserts at Bodega Cantina look very very very tempting. I have always thought of featuring them up on my Instagram feed someday. But I was a bit upset by their taste actually. We tried -
Bodega Bomba
Sunday Movie Night
Both of these desserts have really exotic and pricey components which have made them charge their desserts so high. But none of them tasted as good as they looked. Being a teetotaler, I quite didn't like the alcoholic smell on a such a high level. And the base too, didn't quite like very much.
Deducted points for the desserts. Otherwise, food, service, ambience, decor - everything was more than perfect! Recommended to try the food but not the desserts. That's my take on Bodega Cantina Y Bar for now. Happy Dining! :)
We ideally went to this place to enjoy the ipl match over some good food and honestly, we weren't disappointed.fun quirky food and drinks presentation was nice....the only drawback Is that there are very few tables and extremely loud music near the screen so while we actually went to watch the match over the meal we din end up doing so as there was very limited place.
Didn't even know about this place a week back. Located at the corner near what's in Da name, the bar downstairs is just plain small and inadequate. But when you step upstairs, the decor kinda strikes you with a familiar but still different look and feel. Nice sofas and low tables with beautifully arranged racks. Pretty cool.
There was this IPL offer of unlimited draught and whisky at 799 and 999 respectively.
For food, we ordered bacon wrapped prawns, beef chilly fry, bodega Caesar salad and some other dish of chicken. We ordered the prawns thrice, they were that good. The beef was very hot though.
Very good service and courteous staff. And not many people know about this place I guess, so it wasn't crowded or anything. People only come pouring in after 9.
Highly recommended.
Visited this place many times.. first few visits were around 6-7 months back . I loved the decor. Has a good diverse progressive menu. Cocktails are very signature and off beat with twists of improvisation. Food quality was yardstick. But my last visit, a few days ago was quite different. At night it was like a local pub, contrary to its sophisticated ambiance in the day time, with extremely loud music and dim lighting like a pub. It looked transmuted .

Great decor and ambience; value for money food. But not so customer focused service. And I'll explain why. We were walk-ins at around 1220. Was shown to a lovely table for 2 by the window and here's what we ordered - Coco Loco (since the Vietnamese Coffee was unavailable) and Morning After; Laal Maas Taco, Beef Chilly Fry and Pathani Chicken Tikka.
The food and drinks were served quickly and I'd readily recommend the Morning After as well as the Beef Chilly Fry. The spicy kick of the Laal Maas was not to my liking and the Chicken Tikka was well - as all Tikkas are! So, we are done with our food; thinking about dessert and it is just 1300. After a set of frantic hand waving the staff hand over the menu and clear out part of the food serving. And we place the order for Bodega Bomba and The Hazelnut. Time goes by and finally being completely confused about where our order was (a table next to ours went through soup and main course and had already paid the bill while we wait) I ask a staff member only to be informed about it taking a little more time. Both desserts were well plated and presented, I'd recommend the Bomba over the Hazelnut (there's far too much Hazelnut in it - not a downside, just not what I was expecting).
So, the food is actually good value for money in a set up which was been created with a great deal of attention to detail. But, if an order of 2 mocktails; 3 small plates and 2 desserts require over 70 minutes to be served - with the patrons being uninformed about any delay (we were on a schedule and would have skipped dessert if we actually knew it would take more than half an hour to be prepared) then it is an iffy experience at best. Sure, one can argue that this provides adequate time for customers to be social and chatty. But that's one way of looking at it. Right until the time all the small tables on the first floor were occupied, there was just one staff member attempting to take orders; place them into the system and all such. The usual observation around water refills continue - does not happen until you keep waving your hand for the staff to take notice.
My friend got a voucher from Zomato of a certain amount and hence we dropped in!
The entire restaurant is very quirky starting from the entrance itself, which looks like the entrance of an old warehouse. It has two floors. The grand floor is the bar area while the first floor is the dining place. Its very well decorated and attention has been given to details. Even the washroom has been given attention to!
Coming to the food, we had ordered BBQ chicken pizza and Nasi Goreng for main and Bodega Bomba for dessert. The pizza was delicious as well as Nasi Goreng. I loved the sambal they served with it! The dessert was a piece of art and tasted pretty good, but I thought it was a bit too sweet. Would have loved if they had some contrast.
All-in-all a very nice place with good food but a bit on the pricey side!
Outstanding Cocktails, friendly staff and sumptuous food. A very chill, easy and young vibe with world class drinks and food. The upstairs section is great o catch up with friends in the evenings too. All of the cocktails were presented in a fun and interesting way, special mention for the yummy tiramisu martini for people who like deliciously gourmand cocktails. The nachos were so authentic and fresh and the chicken sui Mai is one of the best I've ever eaten. I'd go here again and again and never get tired of the place. Cheers to Bodega!
I really love the vibe of this place. The ambience, the decor, the variety in the menu - all make for a fantastic evening.
Eggs Kejriwal is a must for egg lovers. The pizzas are tasty. And the desserts are to die for. The drinks are delicious as well.
Must try!
A hidden gem in the heart of the city. It's located in a bylane of Park Street. The ambience is amazing, so is the courtesy and hospitality of the servers. Ordered a slow braised pork belly, a grande and a sides of garlic bread. All of them were yummy to the point that I could lick off my fingers. They beer was freshly brewed. And tasted really nice. Kudos to the team.
It's a must visit if you're looking for fantastic food and good alcohol. The desserts especially were magnificent (so much so that we specifically asked to meet the pastry chef there so we could thank him).
10/10 would visit again.
Good place good music with soothing ambience but staffs are rude which spoils the mood. Service from the kitchen is fast but server takes whole lot of time to serve food and sometimes we have to serve ourselves as they don't pay heed to serve.
Been here many times but the attitude of the stewards makes it a turn off.
Aesthetically, this is the best place I've been so far in Calcutta. The decor absolutely blows your mind. I have tried both food and beverage. When I went they had a Talli Menu which is quite a steal if you wish to drink cheap. I had THE DAWA DARU, MOVES LIKE JAGGER and BEER BATLI. All of them were really good. The quantity of food is really less, given the price, though taste is great. Steep tax. Had SHROOM BALLS and EMPANADAS.
Located at the prime location of parkstreet.Very loud place.Food average. Drinks are good. The place below is very very loud. Staff is prompt and pricing is fine.Good place to go if u want not to have any conversation with ur partner.😎
We visited this place on 25th and it was a superb experience. Cool environment, decoration wise its good. They have very music playlist you will enjoy that for sure. Two floors are there, if you have larger group then you can find on the 1st floor,Otherwise its gun to seat near the bar on ground floor. The only thing management simply didn't give attention to its smoking room,its too small, hardly 3 people can stand,and that too verymuch siffocative. Overall its a good place to hangout,good liquor and moderate food. Dont expect the food to be very good, but its good as a 'Chakhna' :p.
The interiors are quirky and beautiful , but low in terms of vibe and energy. Food is decent with overpriced menu.
A new buzzy place with two levels of quirky decor and an innovative way of figuring out dishes and cocktails. Some old favourites along with some old favs with a twist.

A bit costly and the portions are really small. The saving grace is the taste whichbis just yum.
The best bar to hangout with your friends. The food, the drinks, the ambiance. And the music.
Everything is perfect!!
Ambience was good music was good, drinks also good ,but the main part is ....they charge service charge on ur bill, see the bill prpperly and ask the management, to change the bill...and they deduct the bill..so friends please pay for that what u eat ......
Cocktail lovers will go crazy here with the presentation of the drinks.. Hat's off to Uttam Bhai..
Good food. Nice ambience. Must try the signatures!!
Really good cocktails and nice decor. Good place to hangout and chill. Expensive considering small portions
Good food, great ambience, amazing dessert! What I had was the Bodega Bomba and I personally thanked the pastry chef, it was so delicious!
It a nice place to dine.... Decoration and ambience is fantastic. It has a heritage decor. Food has variety and tastes great. Collection of liquor and cocktails are amazing. It is situated behind Barbi queen Nation. Car parking is available. Staff are nice and courteous.
Nice place for friends to chill but seemed the DJ wanted to play just for himself. Music was way too loud for the place at 10pm. DJ should have his practise sessions at his home and then come to perform for the crowd.
Food, booze and service was excellent!!
A beautiful restaurant with quirky interiors and scrumptious food. The restaurant simply screams creativity.
Good place with decent food and interesting interiors with a vintage vibe!
This is a hip place, with out of the box food.
The decor is amazing and chic, even the restroom is trendily decorated.
The staff is friendly.. The atmosphere vibrant.
The prices are a bit high.. But you can always open up your purse for an experience like this.
The afghani platter.. The crispy green chicken.. And pot noodles.. Are my recommendations..
And please try out all the desserts.. They are beyond praises..
Marshmallows.. Ice cream.. Fondant.. Crembullè.. They have everything.
The big glass windows add a happy and bright mood to the place.. And i repeat.. The dècor is AMAZING.
The bar is well stocked.. And there is a smoking room.
Visit this place once.. And garner your own fresh experience.
Nice ambience, good setup and music. I would so visit again, all I would say is that it needs a little bit more food menu for main courses... The quality of food is really up to the class anyways
The mixed drinks are over-the-top fancy. I ordered some kind of gin and tonic that was brought to the table in multiple graduated cylinders and an Erlen Myer flask, then mixed before my eyes, the bartender pointing out all the colour changes of the beverage as he added different ingredients. In all honesty it tasted no better than a standard gin and tonic. The nachos were the closest thing to real nachos I have ever had in South Asia. The drink prices are a bit high, but it's quiet here in the afternoons and I appreciate that I can stay for a long time without feeling like I'm in the way. They also have actual free wifi, not that 30 minutes of free wifi like you get at Park Street coffee shops. The decor is a bizarre hodgepodge of Americana and hipster junk, like an entire Pinterest account exploded into a restaurant.
Food: we ordered cheese cigars, frittatas (nachos with potato chips instead of corn chips) and quesadillas. The cheese cigars were served piping hot (1 serving had 6 mini pieces) and was sumptuous. The frittatas topped with cream, were served with salsa and a cheese dip. We felt they were a good alternative to good ol' nachos. The quesadillas were a bit heavy and the pieces were cut sized a lil too big. Three of us gals were able to do justice to only half the plateful served.
Cocktails: We ordered the Garden of Zen, it was a nice concoction of Thai fruits and vodka, very fresh and light. The presentation is something to look out for.
Ambience: The music was the latest on the charts and the service was very prompt and staff was friendly and courteous.
Would highly recommend this place for its cocktails.
