Great home style bengali food !!
on 12/31/2005
We tried borhani, tehari and halim. The food was fresh and delicious. The service was excellent, and staff friendly. We absolutely liked it. Highly recommended for savoring the cuisines of Bangladesh/Bengal region of India, which is quite different from the rest of India.
Pros: great food, friendly service, inexpensive
Overall user rating: Highly Recommended

My husband and I were heading to little Tokyo and they were closed @ 9.00pm,so we decided to find a different place to eat and What a find! bengal cafe serves Fantastic food!Great mixes of herbs,healthy dishes and the taste ,really out of this world! Its the kind of cooking that I call true cuisine.The service is great ,the restaurant is clean. Try the Haleem for appetizer and the tehari for main dish.

I would certainly go back very soon!

This food is great! I was expecting Indian food, but Bengali food is very different. It's hearty but not-overspiced or oily, as some Indian food can taste. Each dish I tried was delicately balanced and pleasing. I've been back several times to fuel my addiction...it's my new comfort food.

I felt like I was in a small, beautiful, peaceful place with mouth-watering food delicately spiced. The staff was courteous and friendly and went out of their way to make sure we had a pleasant dinner. The check was prompt and surprisingly light. I will go back again and again, the lunch buffet is fantastic.

Amazing brunch! Great price!
on 05/13/2005
What a find!!! This place has a huge brunch at a great price--far cheaper than mst Indian restaurants. And the hospitality is just like home. The place gets packed but they never run out of food. For those afriad of too many spices, don't worry, it's bengali food so it's mild.
Pros: food, service, price
Cons: too far from my house
