3 /5 Sam R: The name of the restaurant has attracted us since were Bengali. The mini grocery was really cute. We brought mango cutney, nimbu pani, and chips. The mango chutney was good. The nimbu pani had some extra black salt in it for my taste preferences, but my spouse liked it. I tried the sample rice dessert, but the rose essence took over the main flavor of the dish, so we didnt order it. We had mughlai chicken, rice, pickles, and lentils.
Mughlai chicken: too much oil mixed with the curry itself, which is why it was hard to taste the currys flavor itself. Mughlai chicken is a thicker based curry in general. I think the nut paste and yogurt couldve been cooked more. It truly lacked flavor from my end.
Lentil: tasted better with the pickles
Pickle: I was told that it would be mango pickle, but it had other vegetables in it. Wish it was homemade, but it was Deep branded pickles served.
I think it was a hit & miss from our end as they have different dishes on different days. I think well call in advance to ask what theyre serving for next time. I will tell others in NYC to stop by the store if theyre around this area. No refund is necessary as I see the owner offering refunds to other reviewers.
