Kareem's Kolkata

Booked table for 4 through visit, wait time was less than 15minutes, quality of the food the food was amazing however taste was not that good enough for a person like me who love spicy food, infact a suggestion for everyone who love spicy food while giving order plz mention to make it spicy. Else the environment was amazing.

This place serves Mughlai delicacies which will enhance your taste buds for a new experience.... The taste of each dish was truly different and extraordinary from any other restaurant, providing you a new experience.... Talking of ambience, this place has a modern atmosphere with a classical touch, whose aesthetics will make you feel the vibe of being in a modern Mughlai restaurant.... We tried their special Mutton Dum Biryani.... As mentioned before, the taste was different from other places and was truly awesome and marvellous.... Pocket pinch (per head): ₹500-700

Visited the place during Maha Saptami night. It was already past midnight. However, we got our table after waiting for only 10-15 minutes. At Kareem's Park Street, we ordered the following items: - Chicken malai kebabs - Tandoori roti - Chicken Lahori - Mutton dum biryani The chicken malai kebabs were simply delicious. The chicken was soft, tender, and cheesy. I was disappointed with the tandoori rotis. They were crispy and didn't taste good. Chicken Lahori was also okayish. The mutton biryani was again great. One portion of the biryani had an egg, one whole potato, two pieces of meat, and a good amount of rice. Loved the biryani. Apart from the tandoori roti, there was nothing much to complain about. Also, it was during Durga Puja, so I could cut them some slack. The ambience was wonderful and the staff were very courteous and helpful.

The Afghani kebabs were a delightful surprise. Each bite was a burst of smoky, tender, and perfectly seasoned meat. The biryani was equally outstanding. Fragrant, aromatic, and bursting with flavor, it was a feast for the senses. If you're looking for an authentic taste of kebabs and biryani, Kareem's is the place to be.

Undoubtedly the place is good, especially at the heart of Kolkata city. I really liked the ambiance, filled with mirrors which is unique. I have visited many restaurants but I was really surprised to see the simple yet unique piece of work they made. One thing to note is that it is Kareem's not Karim's (Delhi - Jama Masjid). They do not have any connection with Karim's (Delhi - Jama Masjid), the same also mentioned on their menu. Let me quickly go through what Karim's is so that everyone can relate. Karim's Hotel or Karim's is a historic restaurant located near Jama Masjid, Gali Kababian, Old Delhi, Delhi, India. Established in 1913, the restaurant has been described as "synonymous with this area" (Old Delhi) and "arguably the city's most famous culinary destination". Outside Delhi the first restaurant from Karim's came up in Kolkata, with the city now hosting three restaurants of the same. That's being said, it is worth mentioning that Kareem's do not have good packaging systems if something big such as "Kareem's Special Raan Biriyani". One plate of this special biriyani costs around 2300 INR yet the packaging they provide is not good enough to bring back to home. It would be appreciated if they improve their packaging for big plates so that food can be brought back home without any hassle. If someone is stuck at the same position, unable to handle the parcel then they can use Swiggy home delivery service.
