Have been going to this place for years now, and the food has always been good. The restaurant was renovated recently making the outlook more posh and classy. The ambience is nice. Friendly staff coupled with great food and reasonable prices make this place worth trying out.
the packaging is good and the food amazing
Food is good, as expected, I really liked pan fried chilly chicken
Good food, well behaved staff, silent ambience. These will describe the place best. If u are in a mood to spend sometime alone indulging yourself into North Indian food, visit Nargis. Quantity is really good and items are good too. As it is not much crowded, you will enjoy uo soul meal.
Will rate it as 4

A classic decor with an aesthetic collage of legendary actor Anup Kumar greets you at this gorgeous culinary destination. BarB Q Fish was so soft and yummy. The starters are nicely prepared and even the desserts are lip luring. Highly Recommended!
After the renovation they have improved a lot in both decoration and ambience and also food . The amount they serve per plate for this price is quite reasonable compared to other restaurants.
it's a nice food joint near FE block,saltlake.the interior is spacious,the walls are decorated with famous tollywood actors of golden era,wall clocks and pictures gave it a nostalgic look.the food was comforting.we orederd a fresh lime soda,egg fried rice,chilli garlic noodles and hot garlic fish.the fish was amazing,tender and fresh,the rice was good but the noodles was a bit dry.the staffs were very courteous.price was ok comparing to the quantity which was huge for both the main nd side dishes.one dish is enough for two.love to come back soon.

It was a summer noon and a scorching outside and we were a hungry stomach situation.so passing by saltlake FE block and went to this restaurant..The interior is quite spacious enough for 50 people,big sitting arrangements Nicely decorated with pictures of tollywood stars of golden era.. the staffs were really nice and attentive..We ordered chilli garlic noodles chicken fried rice ,hot garlic fish and lime soda.each of the dish's quantity was huge one is enough for 2.and the fish contains 8 pieces and chicken dish contains 12 pieces!!as we saw in the menue card.. It's so rare!!the fosh was tender.the noodles had a bit much of garlic flavour and a bit dry.but otherwise it was fine.the rate is ok.a Nice experience.not a fancy restaurant but good for filling an empty stomach and to sit in a relaxed way and enjoy the food if you area in this area.
Tandoori chicken is amazing! supersoft
Great place to chill out, affordable, takes around 15 - 20 mins to get the order. Must try momo, mutton rara, chicken mughalia, chicken pepper.

Well it's not about big brands or big names...
So this time we tried the joint named Nargis...
#indiancuisine
We were simply bowled out with the awesome food that was served.... From the succulent kebabs to nans and from chicken to mutton... everything was cooked to perfection... just the right spices, taste, bold looks... everything was simply to die for.... Adding to it was the retro ambiance and excellent service.
The quailty of the food is very good. Serves lovely food. The interior is very elegant with a nice ambience. The service provided is good too.
Situated at sector-3, built in 1999 by one of the renowned actor of Bengali cinema Mr. Anup Kumar. He likes a flower named Nargis that's why he kept the name of the restaurant after that flower. Having a classic and artistic ambience with photographs of Bengali cinema all over the walls of the restaurant. We have ordered chicken Hyderabadi Briyani and chicken curry. The food was extremely good with absolutely correct flavour and odour. After having the food, I have to say it is value pricing.
Cool ambience, check
Pretty good food, check.
Value for money, check.
Ample quantity, check.
Not an extraordinary or fancy place, but good enough to dine at, once in a while.
(Chilly garlic shrimp
Chicken hakka noodles
Chilly garlic noodles
Chilly wine chicken 12 pcs)
P.S- Dessert options are very limited.
The hotel is good and the management is also very good special food quality they serve fresh food it's is taking time to serve food but as food come the taste of the food like eat and eat non stop..
I like to say pls serve the food faster....
In my childhood days, this place was our staple eat-out stop as it is really close to our place and the Chinese food was really decent.
The decor is cool with the collage of Anup Kumar that used to make my mom n dad really nostalgic.
But with time somehow we stopped visiting this place until this puja. The fried rice tasted yum as ever but I found the chicken dishes very fibery and chewy which kinda ruined my childhood good memories with their food. May be the rush of puja caused the problem or so and I would really like to give it a benefit of doubt as it served delicious food for so many years.
I don't know about the other cuisines as I never ever tasted anything but Chinese.
The decor is warm and cozy. And really a good place to have a peaceful dinner with family.
Plus it's easy on pocket. :)
Recommend. :)
Happy eating people 🍚🍲🍛🍝👌
Average food and ambience. Service was a little slow. I loved the Lung Fung Soup. It's expensive with respect to the quality of dining experience. Not highly recommended.
Yesterday I went there at about 12:30pm and they served some delicious dishes like tandoor chicken, chilli wine fish, chicken fried rice,butter naan as we ordered...all of them were equally yummy and yes the most important thing is that they did not compromise with their quality during this 31st december...one can go there with their family friends and will enjoy a good quality time.
Heard a lot about this place from my friends but today was my first time visiting here. Me and my friend ordered chicken sweet corn soup, chicken hakka noodles, and schezwan chicken, tbh I have never had anything so good, finally it was worth visiting. The food was so damn good, price was reasonable, the quantity was huge comparison to the other restaurants, and the service was unexpectedly good, the employees were very polite and well behaved.
After a decorative make-over this place provides a subtle ambience away from the bustling crowds. The food is also quite tasty on both fronts - Mughal and Chinese.
Recommended dishes -
1. Pepper garlic fish
2. Mixed meifoon
3. Cantonese chicken (noddles and the side dish)
4. Butter Chicken
5. Veg/peas pulao
... and much more.
Price quite reasonable in today's market.

If you are looking for fulfilling meals at reasonable rates then you can try out Nargis.
Interior: 3/5
Could have been better.
Food: 4/5
Great quantity at reasonable rates.
Service: 4/5
My first visit, and it was impressive. The staff is well dressed and courteous enough, the lighting and music are just right. The only mismatch is the cutlery. When you are serving everything in porcelain, then why the drinkware is steel!?
Now the food part, quality & hygene is good, quantity at par with other restros, price is a bit on the higher notch if compared to restros of same tier. We had pepper chicken, meifoon (Shanghai & Chilli Garlic) and hot garlic chicken. Taste is at par, nothing over the top. Since, I have tried meifoon in quite a few places now, I can vouch for Noodle Oodle for preparing the tastiest ones.
Definitely worth a visit!
Visited this place after a long time. The change is just unbelievable. Very nice decor and more than the decor the Chinese is too tasty. I would recommend this place to everyone if they want a decent ambience and great quality food. The music is so perfect to set the mood. Chilli chicken here is too tasty. If you guys don't visit this place then you are really missing something very special.
Ordered mutton hyderabadi biryani, mutton rara & chicken afgani via Swiggy. To be honest not satisfied with mutton rara & chicken afgani. Biryani was tasty, different from our regular Kolkata biryani, but too much oily. I had not found any good pieces of mutton in mutton rara. Concern authority plz take care on this. So disappointed..
The restaurant has undergone a renovation and the decor is superb. Food was amazing and delectable. We ordered for chilli lamb roast and it was really as good as any 5 dtar hotel standard. Look forward to many more dining experience at this place. Staff and service is also top notch.

Lovely Ambience With Great taste of food . Staff Behaviour is Too Good . After Your One Time Visit you Will Definately Visit Again . You also Can take a selfie with Crab 😄😄😄😄
I have been visiting Nargis from a long time.They serve very good Chinese. This time i visited after they renovated the whole place. I must complement the renovation . We tried indian this time and ordered Hyderbadi mutton biryani , chicken butter masala , parathas and fulka roti.
The food was very good only thing struck me the price of Fulka roti @25 ₹ . I feel this could be reduced to 10₹ to 15 ₹ max.
All revamped and looking gorgeous. Last visited before the renovation in Jan 2016. August 2017 was completely different. Good quality food, good service. Open till 11.30pm.
Great Place and Food. Chinese food here is very tasty and the have plenty of menu options. We had mixed fried rice, lemon coriander soup, butter garlic fish and bbq chicken. Will visit this place again to try the crab.

yesterday we visited this place with my friends after a long time. Didn't know about the transformer of nargis. I was really shocked looking at the drastic change of nargis. Earlier it was dull and shabby but now the interior is just super. Well they change the entire staff and Management team. Now it is a classy restaurant in town where we can dine. Not only it's looks have changed but the food quality has impovised like anything. Thought the price is little higher than before. But shouldn't except the same price after the transformation. I ordered Mutton Hyderabadi biriyani and mutton rara and my friends ordered pepper garlic crab, thai meifoon, oyster fish and sliced chicken with basil. The quantity of the food served was a lot and the quality was just awesome. I never had such biriyani ever. Thought it isn't similar like our normal Kolkata style but It is far much better than Kolkata style biriyani. Mutton rara was very tasty and the crab was just marvelous. I will come back again and again in this place. Their hospitality was just remarkable. I am really very happy with the place. Keep it up. We appreciate the chance
The best biriyani in town. Extremely delicious. Better than Arsalan and Aminia biriyanis. Really cheap. They serve you 4 chickens along with a generous amount of rice. Eveything's perfect. Looking forward to visit this restaurant again.

Have gone there many a times...but that was before they renovated it. So this one's for the brand new nargis that was born out of the ashes of the older version.
Interiors of the restaurant is really beautiful and so is the ambience. Post renovations the place seemed more spacious than ever!! They replaced sum of their staff nd dats the wisest deceision on their part as a restraunt like that cant run on rude waiters as it earlier used to be!
We ordered shanghai chicken noodles and schezwan fried rice. Both of them were cooked nicely but i loved the noodles!!! Though it was chiken, they did add egg,mushrooms and baby corn to it. Some of the cons are that the corn and chiken added to it seemed to have aged. So they could certainly put tabs on that and source fresh ingredients for their otherwise perfect concoctions.
Staff behaviour is really appreciable but the service a bit slow. After serving each dish they asked about our opinion on it. They even served us a salad with cucumber,carrot and cabbage. It was kindof sweet and went well with the spicy noodles and rice.

In every part of the city, most of the restaurants serve different types of foods from different cuisine. from a foodie point of view, I think this kind of initiative is a very good move. suppose someone wants to eat Chinese & other one wants to eat complete Indian meal then both of them can eat different food in the same place. keeping this in mind “Nargis” a well-known restaurant situated in FE block, sector 3, near Saltlake came with this unique concept.here you will find both Chinese & Mughlai dishes. a well-decorated restaurant which has a capacity of around 50 plus. nice ambiance with extraordinary interiors makes this place so beautiful. it was a meetup organized by the management of “Nargis” over a food tasting. it was a mix combination of dishes non-veg & veg from Chinese & Mughlai section. we had an extensive amount of dishes, after completing all the starters it was quite difficult for me to try other dishes but somehow I managed and tried the main course along with the dessert. started with a glass of fresh lime soda sweet & salt which is a cool & refreshing beverage. food tasting began with numerous types of Indian & Chinese starters,
The location is easily accessible and you are welcomed by magnificent setting. The first impression of the restaurant is antique ambience from wooden floors to decorations of old bengali cinema star's on the wall. The environment is fairly peaceful with no noise around , ideal for family get togethers, group parties , gossips. The menu offers a large variety of mouth watering starters as well as the main course , at a very reasonable price. Service is prompt and decent.Thankfully, the owners and managers are always around and willing to exchange words with their clients. I highly recommend all to visit this restaurant.
Having a YUMMIE . . . food after SO long. . . Especially my favourite Sea food.KEEP IT UP NARGIS.....Keep it up and i will be visiting very soon again with my friends. . CHEERS
Delicious food just yummy. Unbelievably changed Nargis. Not only the ambience but the food is just awesome. Mutton hyderabadi biriyani is just superb. I have never had such lovely biriyani here in Kolkata. It is different than our regular biriyani. Must visit this place and taste the food. Highly Recommend by me.
Nargis is a name that reminds us either of the veteran actress or of the gorgeous Nargis Fakhri…. But here today, it’s all about the beautiful journey of a food lover…. In one monsoon evening when I was ready to head towards my gym, one of my foodie friends gave me a buzz and asked me to visit this place. At first I was in a dilemma, but later I bunked my gym and decided to go there.
Visited the revamped Nargis Restaurant. Good food, great ambience, prompt service. menu looks promising and hopefully in near future newer dishes will be introduced. looking forward.
Excellent place. A great comeback both with food and ambience. Chinese is just outstanding. This was needed earlier but better late than never. Everyone should try new nargis because without coming here and tasting the food and ambience nobody can understand the great quality of food and improvised interior. Seafood here is just mouthwatering. I will definitely come back again and again and it's recommended to all. Great job. A heritage to go a long way.
Enjoyed with my friends....Awesome food quality and ambience.... Good experience...😊😊😊😍😍😍😍.... Thanks to Mr.Siddharth Saha. Will visit soon again and again......
Great place. Must visit. Gr8 food specially lobster and other sea food. We went with few frnds and we even ordered hyderabadi biryani too. Trust me we are used to kolkata style biryani but after having hyderabadi biryani here i just loved it. Its delicious. The ambience is also good and the staffs are very caring. A big change. Never thought that nargis will improvise so much.
Great food. A massive change both in the ambience and food quality. I have been there previously but this time it was just awesome. The Chinese is just super delicious. It's a must visit place and don't confuse new nargis with the old one because even I was in a doubt before I visited the place and felt the difference. Thumps up from my side and it's highly recommended. Though pricing is not like before but even the food and staff is not like before. Pricing is not to high but moderate.
We kove Chinesr food and thought of trying out Chinese from the newly re-openned Nargis. Food was excellent.We loved the taste. We are so glad to have an authentic Chinese restaurant near our place. Will be visiting again soon.
This is located opposite central park. Its interior is basically decorated with posters of nargis and uttam kumar. I went there twice with my friend. Once had sweet corn chicken soup and schezuan chicken noodles and pepper chicken dry. The soup was very very tasty and the pepper chicken was so soft and tasty. I would go back for that again. :) but the noodles was so spicy i could hard have a spoonful of it.

Visited this place from last 15 years I guess. We also take home delivery as well from it. Mainly popular for Chinese cuisin (ofcourse Kolkata style Chinese). Recently this place is renovated and now it looks a bit classy as well, which it lacks previously. During our last visit, we ordered burnt garlic, chilli fried rice (chicken) and teriyaki chicken. The quality is decent and quantity is more than sufficient for two people. Service has improved as well. Quite pocket friendly.
Had biryani. Test is good. Ambiance is also good. Family restaurant.Easy car parking place. Spacious place. U can enjoy the Live sports. Food quality is good. Fast service.
Located near Central park (FE Block) Salt lake City, the reincarnated Nargis is a perfect place for dining. It started with all the new food menu adding up the Mughlai dishes along with Chinese and Indian. Food quality is quite good especially the chinese cuisine. We had ordered for chicken clear soup along with starters- chicken fried wantons and barbecue fish which were tasty while the Main course included panfried noodles, fried rice(highly recommended) which was authentic in its taste, oyster fish and chilli wine chicken(mothwatering dish). Coming to the desserts (darshan and toffeewalnut icecream) it was pure bliss.. the icecream tasted heavenly and would strongly recommend all to experience the feeling. Service needs to be a little faster. Overall ambience, cleanliness and management is quite impressive. A big thumbs up 🖒
The food was excellent. The ambience and service was good ! Behaviour of the staff was very good ! Good place for having a good time with ur frnds !
budget friendly Best resturant in saltlake sector 3. Best item mixed fried rice & butter chicken. Veg items are limited and taste is also avarage.
A beautiful place to be . Mouth watering dishes .
Biryani is a special mention . Even the Chinese dishes are yum . Would like to explore more dishes of this restuarant.
Excellent chinese cuisine preparations. Especially the crab and lobster. The mughlai cuisine is tasty as well. Suggest all to try both as and well possible.
awsome new ambience..loved the food too..must try Hyderabadi biriyani. The crab n lobsters are heavenly. All food lovers must visit. Highly recommend.
Nice ambiance very good food very good behavior of people i just love the new nargis i have been there lots of time chinese and mugal both food are superb
I have been here many times with my friends to celebrate birthdays..and it was quite satisfactory.Food was good and price was reasonable.I recommened it to anyone who likes good food@good rates.The only thing I didn't like is the spacing of tables.It was a bit too close from each other.
Located in a quiet neighbourhood near Central Park. This place has an extensive menu with reasonable prices. I am especially fond of their noodles and chicken side dishes. The quantity is sufficient for 2 people. Quick and prompt service. Good ambience.
One of the best place for eating out.The prawn and crab dishes are really good.The chicken dishes are good also.Too many choices to eat.The rice and noodles flavours are exotic.
After ordering it took a huge time almost 45 min to serve the food, food quality was ok... ...not awesome.....but price is reasonable.......
It is a nice restaurant. Ambience food quality service all good. Designed all over with pics of nargis. But it's not an excellent restaurant or a must try restaurant. It's a Good restaurant if u are around
Nargis is located in front of my school. I have been visiting this place since childhood days. So I love nargis. They serve u a lot of food at a very low price. So if u r hungry and don't have much in ur pocket then nargis is a good place to fulfill ur hunger.
awesome restaurant,i went with my husband,very good decoration,awesome food,finger licking seafood,but mutton dish was not good,i tried octopus for the fast time,i am very satisfied with the food
The best Hydrabadi Biriyani I ever had! For the first time I'll speak in points!
-Tasty
-Affordable
-Quality over price
-Quantity over price
-Humble staff
-And even serves raita with Biriyani.. that too for free!
Very simple and easy menu. Courteous staff make the difference at this place. I love their music choice, the Blues they played the other day was really soothing to ears and felt heavens while having the dinner. Good for single too.
Good place but service is delayed..
Old Nargis food was exceptionally good.
This is best place for Chinese,but now they serve Indian food.
The new ambiebce is good and attractive.
Location is good and parking is not a problem.
Also don't forget to have pan from nearby shop
its going to be nostalgic experience for bengali cine lover...they should atleast come once here to celebrate their tolly film love...
Food quality was awsm
Do visit
One of the best place in saltlake to have Chinese and North Indian Delicacy...
A very good restaurant for Bengali Cuisine. Good environment. Food quality is also good with affordable price.
The quality of the food is nice compared to the price. The dried chilli chicken and fried rice is really good and also the gravy chow. You can eat there if you're with your friends and wanna fill your stomach up without making a hole in your pocket.
Rating would be 3.9 out of 5.
The quality of food was excellent. But the food supplied were not the food ordered. Instead of mutton biriyani chicken biriyani was served. Prices are reasonable. Overall a good experience
Huge difference in quality what it was and what it is now. I personally feel the ambience has been worked on... but miss the old decor, service and feel. I miss Santu, mastermoshai and the whole team which is gone now. The food is now prepared now, is like any other restaurant missing the signature which Nargis had. Felt sad and bad dining last week.
After a decorative make-over this place provides a subtle ambience away from the bustling crowds. The food is also quite tasty on both fronts - Mughal and Chinese.
Recommended dishes -
1. Pepper garlic fish
2. Mixed meifoon
3. Cantonese chicken (noddles and the side dish)
4. Butter Chicken
5. Veg/peas pulao
... and much more.
Price quite reasonable in today's market.
