“ One of the best Bengali food that I'ever had. We came here with my Bengali friends and most of the dishes we got were pretty good. My ultimate favorite is the tehari or beef biryani. We also got the kachchi biryani but it was alright. The rice was pretty mushy and the flavors were okay. We also got beef liver and stomach, very tasty but too much oil in my opinions. Portha was amazing as well. We got this little fish fried and it went amazingly well with plain rice. ”
“ Pretty good food. It's buffet style, you choose and they bring it to you. I had mystery fish curry with potatoes and cauliflower. Rice is extra, but it came with a small simple salad and a bowl of dal. Flavors were straightforward, tasty seems very clean. The chai is good too. I'll return and try more things from the huge buffet. ”
“ I enjoy the food at this restaurant. The kebabs are delicious, as well as the Biryani dishes. Very reasonably priced and a great selection of samosas, and other quick appetizers. Ladies at the take out counter are very nice and always smile to the many repeat customers. I see mostly Indian and Bangladeshi people eating here so I know the food is authentic. Definitely worth a visit. ”
“ Best thing about this location is that it's literally right by the 7 train at the 74th Street Broadway stop. I didn't know about it until my friend N has brought me here to grab a quick bite and hop back on the train to be on our way. I see how busy it can get because of the convenience of the train being right next to the eatery. As for the service wise, don't get too offended if you don't get greeted by the staff. They're too busy anyway to greet anyone as there're always crowds of people lining up to pay and buy their food. I believe they accept both credit/debit card and/or cash. So, of course it can get a little hectic and rowdy. Additionally, there're always people trying to pass through in the narrowness of the pathway. Not much of an ambiance to say the least except that it's similar to a hole-in-the-wall, mom-and-pop kind of place. Now, just because the place isn't fancy doesn't mean you shouldn't stop by and check it out. Sometimes, these hole-in-the-wall eateries are actually the best places for food. Love their pulao aka butter rice (plain basmati rice cooked with coconut milk and herbs) - small one for $2-3. Tastes way better than the rice you cook at home because of its aroma when you first open the lid of the container. Good to eat on its own or if you have a little curry to mix it with. The rice was fluffy and perfectly cooked, with a subtle hint of spices. Flavors were well-balanced and aromatic, making it a satisfying and comforting meal even if you're just eating the rice alone especially on a cold day in the winter....it's great to get something hot in your system. Fried Vegetable Rolls: Blown away by these simple-looking fried finger foods but packed with variety of flavors. The rolls were filled with a delightful mix of crunchy vegetables, then fried to a golden crispy perfection. The outside was satisfyingly crunchy, while the inside remained fresh and flavorful. A definite must-try for anyone looking for a tasty and satisfying veggie option! Vegetable Samosas: Wow! The fried vegetable samosas have exceeded my expectations! Crispy, flavorful, and packed with a delightful mix of spiced veggies like diced potatoes. Each bite was a perfect balance of textures and flavors. These samosas stole the show - a must-order for anyone visiting Ittadi Garden and Grill! Will definitely go back to try its tandoori chicken legs, goat curry and definitely the jalebi - a very popular Bangladeshi type of sweet made out of deep-frying maida flour (plain flour or all-purpose flour) batter in pretzel or circular shapes. They're then soaked in sugar syrup afterwards. I'm impressed of how delicious everything looks through the glass display window. Jalebis are small, bright yellow, web-shaped cakes similar to funnel cakes. They are popular celebration and street cakes mainly in Bangladesh, Nepal, Pakistan. My friend said they taste good on their own or with a glass of warm milk. * Super Affordable, Budget-Friendly wise * Literally right by the Subway * Everything looks so scrumptious! * Popular eatery with locals in the neighborhood. * Opens late, so pop in if you're ever in the area. ”
“ The food was great. The portions are large so I am glad the server forgot a few items off of our order. Why oh why does there always have to be a customer who spits and clears their nose and throat and mucus in the communal sink adjacent to the dining room? Disgusting. Spouse had me change seats so I couldn't withness it again. Reasonable prices. I would return for a quick bite. ”
