Very rarely do I give out 5 full stars! But this place deserves it thanks to the authentic taste of Bangladesh! If you’re looking for authentic Bangladeshi food, this is the place. The beef tehari is amazing!!! Not oily as most other places I’ve been to and had such a robust flavor. The meat itself is so tender it might as well have melted in my mouth but it was perfectly cooked and so it didn’t. Lol I would highly recommend people to try this. The spicy yogurt drink(Borhani) was ok. A bit too salty for my taste. I’d pass on this. The beef biryani was also pretty good but didn’t bear the tehari for me. Interior wise, there’s lots of sitting space in the back. The entryway is a bit congested. Tight space for two way traffic. I wish they had some menus so people can order while seated instead of standing g in the already tight space. Now service wise, I would’ve taken a star off had Mr Khan(manager, I believe) not saved the day at the end. He chatted with us a bit after we were done, asked how everything was, took some suggestions, even gave us complimentary dessert and tea! Earlier though, we asked our server for a second plate of salad but it never arrived to our table. Also, he seemed to have been only one serving about 4⁄5 tables. So I think there’s room for the waiters/servers to improve on their services. Bathroom — also very authentic, unfortunately; just like the smelly bathrooms in the less developed areas in Bangladesh. Really though, the trash bin was overflowing with trash. the lid was broken so it stayed open. Easy fix though. Fix it! Besides these two cons, I would still go here for the food. Very tasty and fresh.

Me and my friends come here every night! If you’re looking for quality indian food with the touch of the home made like taste then this is the spot! The manager Mr. Khan is just amazing the first thing he’ll do is greet you write away with a smile and ask how you’re doing. Though I am a usual customer along with my group of friends(15+) he greets us and seats us every night! You must ask to meet him if you go by. The service there is awesome as well the employees will greet you like they know you, very friendly and nice. Even if it’s busy, they do their best to serve with quality. For the best dish Id say the chicken briyani or the beef tihari, my usuals and tea is a must! You can say one chai to go or stay, it’s hot but you’ll love it. You must try their sweets, the jillapi is always fresh made near the register and the sweets you see from the window is called Mishti, it’s just amazing dessert. If you’re looking for a well decorated place then this isn’t the spot but it’s a clean and nice place good for lunch, dinner or breakfast. Have a nice night out here with your family and friends, you’ll def come back for more when you’re in town.

Great food for a great price! Biriyanis, chicken tandoori, chicken kabobs, and appetizers are all awesome. Much better quality than the«other» restaurant across the street. I would’ve given this Premium 5 stars only if the sweets were consistently on point like the Hillside location.

Well, where do I start? So today I went to this place with 2 of my friends. We had Biriyani which tasted more like raw oil and the meat was not even cooked all the way. We also shared parathas with 2 different kinds of beef curry. The parathas were pretty good but both bowl of the curry was so greasy and barely any fresh meat pieces in 2 bowls. We had sweets afterwards and they were good. Then came the surprise — the bill! A plate of biryani cost $ 10? A paratha and tiny bowl of beef curry costs another $ 10? Premium sweet, you better get your acts together cause you will be losing customer with this kind of food and ridiculous pricing. Just to note, this is the first time we went to this restaurant; Maybe it was one of those bad day? I don’t know but I feel robbed with the pricing they have. Just do yourself a favor, find a different bengali place to eat. BTW, I had to put 1 star cause I couldn’t post my review otherwise. Yeap, I’m upset!

Who knew Bangladeshi food was so good. Good food, nice staff, addictive sweets, awesome tea. I have been coming here for 5 – 6 months and I plan on doing so. I recommend this place specially for sweets.

My wife and I have been coming here for a few months now after being referred to it by a good friend of ours who owns a high end coffee shop in Mamaroneck, NY. We always come here when we crave some great quality, home style cooking. Most of the food here is cooked with true bengali style, exactly what you’d get when you go to a bengali friend’s home for a special occasion. Till this date, we have tried many different seafood entrees, vegetarian entrees and the absolutely wonderful biryanis. All the food here is cooked/prepared in advance and kept on cooling/heating trays. You can get enough food for 4 people for less than 35 dollars and have plenty of left overs for the next day. The owner/manager of this location provided me with some of the finest customer service I have ever gotten at a store of this type. He actually got on the phone with my wife to describe how everything was prepared and what was on the menu to help her make a decision. AMAZING Definitely do not leave this place without trying a samosa and the rosh malais… the samosas are hands down the best I’ve ever had(sorry grandma) and the rosh malais are expensive but worth every last penny. I have no idea why the guys across the street have so many more reviews, but I’m assuming its a marketing thing. Premium definitely costs a bit more but it’s well worth it.

I come here often, although it’s pretty far from my place(next stop on the train) and a very long walk back home(no delivery service). But totally worth it, especially when I’m having a craving for samosa. Just love their collection of Soya cheese rolls, Palak pakora, Onion fritters, bread pakora, kachouri, green garbanzo beans samosa, masala kaju(maida) and bhaji. The neighborhood has plenty of Indian restaurants, but this place is my favorite. Inside is decent, clean and well kept, but could definitely use a makeover. Pretty small for a large party, but small enough for 4 people at a time and seating comfortably. Way too many severs behind the counter, but they do keep themselves busy and the manager is always up front and ready to help you decide with a tasting if you’re foreign to Indian(Bangladesh) dishes, I wasn’t too crazy about the food being heat up in the microwave, but the food, the food is pretty Ah! mazing, you can actually taste the spices on every dish, especially the chicken, shrimp, beef, goat(no lamb) curry and the huge rice selection. No menu, a different dish everyday, so you won’t be disappointed. Price isn’t so bad, $ 4 half(rice) or $ 7 big plate for 2 and their wide selections of meat $ 3.50-$ 8.
