Zaranj

I went to Zaranj with my friends and to our surprise we found Zaranj amazing. The ambience was so good with soothing music playing in the background. Each and every food was so well cooked and delicious. The quality and quantity of the food totally complements the price. There is valet parking available so no need to be worried about parking.

At the snout of Sudder street connecting the Jawaharlal Nehru road sits this amazing restaurant. Fine dining. The prominence somewhat obscured by the pavement covered with dirty plastics of hawkers(oh! What will happen to this City of Joy). The ambience is quite Victorian with comfortable sitting. Dim lights and sets of 4-8. There is a fountain running and one has to mind the steps . It's multi stepped. There is fresh room inside. The stewards are old, well behaved and experienced, helping out in choosing the best dish. The food is delectable, hot and classical nawabi. Don't order at one go. The portion sizings are sumptuous and please order the bread - one at a time . They serve hot mouth watering dishes . Delightful overall experience. It may feel stiff on the pocket but it's not. Prefer a lunch out , as parking becomes cool and one can over eat to skip the dinner !!! Have fun guys . Right next to the Indian National Museum. Plan a visit there and eat lunch here . Happy times ......

Located near Indian Museum, Zaranj offers fine-dining North Indian cuisine. The ambience and atmosphere is wonderful — one of the best in the city, in my opinion. The food was up to the mark. The kebabs are especially worth mentioning, they were soft and grilled to perfection. Loved the naan, biriyani and the side dishes too. Staff were very helpful and courteous. The food presentation was pretty great as well. The price is a bit on the higher side, but the taste of the food quite compensated for it. Pocket pinch is about INR 2,500 for two people. A definite recommend if you are looking to try North Indian cuisine in a fine dining restaurant.

Located at No. 26, Jawaharlal Nehru Rd, Near Indian Museum, Fire Brigade Head Quarter, New Market Area, Dharmatala, Taltala, Kolkata, West Bengal 700016, Zaranj was one of the most coveted destinations for North Western Frontier Cuisine. It continues to do regular business on signature platters of paneer tikka and machhli chaman. Try the Zaranji raan (rum-spiked whole roasted leg) and machhli Begum Bahar (bekti cooked in a tomato gravy flavoured with carom seeds), Hyderabadi gosht biryani and the sesame-studded murgh til tikka. This is not the place for the pocket conscious; prices are steep in comparison to most standalone restaurants in the city.
