The experience was wonderful..We were a group of 22 with different age brackets. The food was very tasty and very mild. Each and every dishes were really good and was well presented. Thank you Chef Bhaskar & Souro for a great hospitality.

Sona Tori is not just a regular restaurant that we visit every another day in our regular life. The esteemed presence of Chef Bhaskar Dasgupta had actually increased its value at its peak. It is basically a place full of bangaliana history spiced with Zamindari Culture and essence. The restaurant has its own history and stories. Stories that actually helped us to rethink the importance of traditional bengali foods and its uniqueness.Just for your information every single corner and the portion of this esteemed place has its own history and we loved the most is the lotus lake or Padda pukur history.To know the History, we request you all to visit this hidden treasure at least once and you will start visiting again and again.We had:1. Chicken cutlet2. Bhuna Mangsho (Mutton)3. Basanti PolaoWe preferred having specified dishes rather than having Thali. Cus the thali is huge and we were in lil hurry. So, we have decided to visit again in the weekend to have the Maha Bhoj Thali.Ratings:Food: 5/5Ambience: 5/5Services: 5/5The rest is in the pictures. Do let us know in the comments.

I did not enjoy the thali first of all. 2nd ambience was also very gloomy and dark. 3rd stuffs were also not very friendly.There was nothing special in the thali except the dried fish fried and chicken malai tikka which they served as starter. Chicken curry was not fresh either.Thali wasnt worth the price.

The experience was overall good , the food was tasty and the waiters were very help. They inquired about the quality of each dish after serving it .

**This restuarant assembles different tastes of Bengali cuisine.**Ambience- Proper Zamindari touch gives an outstanding look to its interior.The sitting arrangement at the fine dining are is absolutely gorgeous. They have 3 PDRs (Private Dining Rooms) which is used for private group parties. One is the open PDR where visitors can use for smoking. Rests are the closed PDRs which are designed in a theme of dining halls of a royal palace. I am so attracted with this place.**Food- I opted for their ILISH UTSOV menu which is available from 15th August to 14th September. In this course they serve different types of items of hilsa fish.•From ILISH UTSOV I ordered for-°°Ilish Macher Tikki- This is made with mainly boneless hilsa fish, smashed with onion, green chilli & other spices. It is served with onion salad & kasundi or mustard sauce.°°Podda Nadir Majhider Ilish- This delicacy is a typical Bangladeshi cuisine which is observed among the fishermen of Bangladesh. Firstly, the big piece of hilsa is sauted into oil. Then cooked in a curry which is flavoured with onion, garlic, ginger, tomato & seasoned with a special masala. This is absolutely droolworthy!°°Sonar Tori Ilish Platter- This jumbo thali includes-^Gobindobhog Bhaat^Macher Tel^Ilish Bhaja^Ilish Macher Tikki^Pui Diyae Ilisher Matha^Sorse Ilish^Bhapa Sandesh (This baked sandesh has a prominent flavour of gondhoraj lemon)•I also took some dishes from their A-La-Carte Menu-°°Mutton Keema Chop- Minced mutton balls are dipped into egg batter, then coated with bread crumbs & finally deep fried into oil. Amazing.°°Vetki Fish Fry- Fresh vetki fish fillet seanoned with kasundi/ mustard sauce. This is perfect for start your meal.°°Daaber Icecream- It tastes like a real tender coconut. Simple yet beautiful texture! I am blown!**Staffs Behaviour- Staffs were courteous & they always ware mask, gloves, head caps which is impressive.**Come & enjoy!

The ambience is very nice, food quality is also good. Just one thing quantity is not enough as compared to price. Will visit again. 👍🏻

Good place. But most of the items from the menu card are reduced. Hope to have them back soon

The ambience was good. The food quality was average. However, faced some challenges. First, opted to sit at balcony in the open air. But that place was not clean. Therefore changed the plan and sat inside. Secondly, planned to order beer, but there was none available, though the menu suggested a numbers of them. Then moved to non-alcoholic beverages. To my surprise most of the items were not available either like ginger ale, tonic water or red bull. Then I was told only fresh lime soda is available from that entire page of that menucard and I had no other choice than to accept that. Lastly, some waiters were wearing the mask wrongly leaving their nose outside, which is not a good practice during current pandemic.

Not impressed. Plates, bowl, food everything had a telchite gondho in it, specially in mochar polao and luchi. We ordered ghoti chicken kebab which is an average chicken tikka kebab served in a ghoti. Pur bhora bhetki was fine. Mangsher bhuna had four pieces of mutton with lots of bones and tough meat. Chittol macher muthya was not fresh. Bill was Rs. 2860 for three people.

4th floor B block of city centre 1 Salt Lake houses this wonderful restaurant. You would appreciate the pains they have taken to make up the vibe. Cutlery, crockery, even the water pot are all of bell metal. Lively decor with ornate furnishing, servers dressed in traditional attire, they all add up to it. And then the food! Authentic bengali food! We ordered the unlimited veg thali and it was truly unlimited in quantity and limitless in variety and taste. Special mention of the fish bora, gondhoraj chicken starter, aam shorbot, and I can go on and on as the other items are no less good. The hospitality of servers is the crowning glory. Highly recommended, especially if you are in city centre 1 during meals time!

Totally overrated... too overly priced.. behaviour wasnt good.. service was bad.. even there was no wash basin...

Visited today as the COVID-19 lockdowns are getting relaxed. Food is alright. However, you should visit only if you’re comfortable sitting close to other tables because they aren’t leaving tables and it’s a packed sitting arrangement. I visited at peak lunch hour. It’s unlimited thali but they charge for extra helpings of mutton and prawns for the mutton/prawn thalis, not sure why. I would rate the food 3/5 and the experience 2/5.

Ambiance is Quite Okey!But the food served in terms of quantity is actually quite higher that the price...

A well known authentic bengali restaurant serving the mouth watering delicacies and the presentation is just WOW!! You couldnt restrict yourself to take picture of the food served, the main part of any food is appearance, it has to be first taste by the eyes and then the taste buds, and the food served at Sonar Tori exactly does that.. Ambience of the restaurant is like traditional bengali rajbari style, the staffs are friendly and efficient, overall a great experience...

All the food items were fresh and delicious.. the interior decoration is exquisite..

Visited here with my friends for lunch. The precautions taken, temperature checks and hands sanitization are given. The restaurant was packed for lunch.We ordered authentic bengali lunch comprising of rice and prawn malai curry. We also ordered fish fry and Luchi and lentils.. They are a bit pricey, would love to visit again.

Pure bengali ambience, well decorated, shoothing .. Food quality is very good ,from starter to basanti polau - mutton kosha to the must try payesh each and every item loaded with the essence of banglar rannaghor.

Complete waste of money! Poor service! Poor food taste ! completely overpriced!

Went there recently with my family. In one word its wonderful! The interior decoration is exquisite. Located in the 4th floor of Block B in City Centre 1 Mall, Salt lake. Its quite good actually. Coming to the min part - The Food. It was really awesome. All the food items were fresh and delicious. They were extremely tasty 😋. If you are there definitely visit this place once.

Nice place to visit with family.

Its a awesome place to hang out with family. Its very quiet and peaceful. You can enjoy yourself to the fullest. Foods hare are very much authentic. You will feel home while eating out.

A journey to the old school Bengali heritage and cuisine.A hidden gem cultivating and nurturing the lost Bengali culture and cuisine. Chef Bhaskar has indulged himself in research and reviving in bringing back the lost dishes that we use to hear from our ancestors. A must try if you’re a Bengali foodie lover. The décor and ambiance will take you back decades. The staff is great and their attention to detail is well noted.

Went there for a birthday celebration. Loved the ambience and all the arrangements that they made for the occasion.One of the best bengali restaurants. Food is amazing. Staffs are well behaved.

Nice place to have experience, if you are a Bengali food lover.Presentation & quality of food is quite good.

Really nice with exotic interior design & foods are really good.

Superb Ambience and service. Food taste also excellent. Prices a bit too high. Going for buffet is best option. Cocktail drinks are superb but again over priced .

We visited this place on the eve of Astami. the decoration gives a very royal Jamindari vibe. I really enjoyed a good Bengali buffet after long time. every item was exquisite and delicious.

Worst ever dining experience , they have kept non bengali chefs for cooking bengali dishes , I had ordered Bhapa Ilish and they made it extremely sour and salty with probably some punjabi masala , infact the hilsa was totally spoilt.

Located in city centre it might be a bit difficult to find the place. It is on 4th floor of block B. You need to take the stair case beside kfc to reach the Restraunt. Since it was during the Puja’s we had to wait for an hour before we could get a table also the fact that we were a group of 8 made the waiting longer. But even the waiting area is nice and had 2 vintage sofa sets . The service is not the best as when we got the table they took 30 mins to serve us water. The food was good special mention for bhetki paturi which was the best . We did not go for the buffet which will cost you 1575 plus tax. For pujas they had a shortened food menu anyways.We ended up with 9700 bill for 8 which is reasonable.

Awesome place to have authentic Bengali food. A must visit. You even get unlimited Thali.

Loved the place!! Best Bengali food in the town. It has got an old world zamindari ambience. 5 stars for sure. We ordered the Thali which had unlimited starter, a drink and the main Thali. Non veg eaters will have a great time! Highly recommended

Visited dt.06. 08. 2021,this wasa pathetic experience,First the brass utensils were not cleaned at all ,those were blakish ,oxidised, they served sour soft drink in brass glasses , orderedd nonveg thali & those were unexpressively worst,except Luchi Cholar dal,service timing was too long.The wash room was petious, no water ,sink was full with urine, no soap ,.finally the W IFi was not available properly resulting, double the billing amount had to be paid by us with hope they may return later.This was a pathetic experience,being in reputed ,may be, H Neotia Owned ,restaurant in Kolkata.

Wonderful environment with delicious Bengali cuisines. Must try if love Bengali foods. Premium restaurant cost is little higher side but totally worth it.

Well maintained and tasty food but little costly.Well sanitised.

It is one of most lovely authentic be Bengali restaurant I came across... The food is really good although a little expensive... The staffs r courteous... It was ap nice experience...!!

We wanted to have some authentic bengali food and also since this was listed in Zomato gold we thought to try it. I had a good experience with them before.It started well. We decided to go ahead with the thali. Welcome drinks and the starters were good. It was from here the problem started. Once we were done with starters they took ages to come back with the main thali. We waited for around half an hour. I had actually fallen asleep as I had a long night the day before. I woke up when then came with the food, I had lost my appetite.The food was served well, nicely presented. However the food didnt taste authentic.1. Pulao - It was no where near the Bengali pulao.2. Sorse pomfret - The mustard gravy preparation was good. Buy the fish wasnt good, felt tasteless.3. Mutton - Again tasteless and chewy. I expected it to be softer.4. Alur dum - The kitchen probably had done some cost cutting with the onions. Base gravy was mostly tomato.On the positive side: luchi, cholar dal, dessert including chutney, payesh and sondesh.I also had to wait for finger bowl, it came only after I had to wash my hands in the washroom!Last but not the least they refused to accept Zomato gold offer citing that the thali was a promotional offer.1. No where in Zomato or in the restaurant menu or anywhere it was mentioned that this is promotional.2. This was my second visit and my friends had also visited this place. From the very first day and always till my last visit thali was part of their menu. It definitely doesnt qualify as a promotional offer.The price wasnt worth the experience we had.

Place is good... ambience is good...old Bengali but costly utensils...use..food is tasty but cost is little high...bar and separate cabin is there...for use..

Great bengali food but price is on the heavier side!

I like the place very much especially the ambience.The quality of food is good but less than the expected. The behaviour of the staff is also very good

We visited just 2days before poila boishakh for my friends aiburobhat. It was a pleasure to have lunch there. Unlimited buffet, great quality of food, amazing decor and hospitality.

Fantastic food and great authentic decor, loved the mutton and chicken dish as well as the sweet rice, mouth watering good and great hospitality, a little on the expensive side so keep that in mind but worth the experience

The food, ambience, staff behaviour, everything was super awesome. Its a superstar restaurant in terms of food.

Excellent Bengali buffet with nice ambiance. Must try. The starters are really good along with the main dishes. Just a small recommendation that Sukto should be in both Veg and Non Veg. Altogether very nice experienceThe staffs are really nice with asking for repeat. I really enjoyed. Doi-Tulsi as a refresh drink is awesome. Compared to Bhajahori and 6 Ballyganj I really recommend this.

Good place to devour Bangali foodThe foods taste good but pricey

Awesome place ... really different types testy food ..😍😋..I just loved it.

The ambience is really good, the taste of food is little less as per price.

The food was okay...A bottle of Kinley with MRP of INR 20 was charged 95(explanation was given as Luxury Tax)...The ambience was nice...the food was served in Kashar thala...Please watch out for the extra 10% service charge they are adding up without informing you. This is Restaurant chain of Neotia Hospitality and Management...so you can guess when business houses comes to food business they dont want to serve you mouth-watering food but they actually found another way to loot you...They just want profit and dont care about your experience. A Bengali name with touches of Bengali culture in the ambience does not mean you will be served the best of Bengali Cuisine. My recommendation: AVOID.You have better options. Google Review if this Restaurant is 4.2...All of us know that we can buy fake reviews & ratings. Thats all....I dont want to write more.

Exceptionally good food. Authentic Bengali cuisine.

Pure and authentic Bengali cuisine. Excellent ambiance, remind about our cultural ecstacy.

Delicious versatile cuisine. Prompt service. Nice ambient.

Such a lovely place and amazingly tasty food. We opted for unlimited sitting buffet.& I enjoyed the food like anything. The items were so delicious. This place is located inside City Centre, Saltlake. The staffs are very cordial and well behaved too.The ambience is nice with total bengali zamindari touch.Hope to visit this place again !!

Went for the Durga Puja Thali. Food was unlimited and quite good. Service was prompt and responsive. Overall satisfied.

Excellent Bengali food and great options for vegetarians too. The quantities served are perfect . Service is also very polite. I only feel that the choice of desserts can be better given the Bengali dessert reputation.

Food is not as tasty as it used to be. The quantity provided in the Thali is unsatisfactory. The service has become poor. All said Ill think twice before visiting myself and wouldnt recommend others to go as well.

We visited the place on Saturday 03. 08.19. We didnt know that Ilish utsav is going on there. In fact my daughter got her first salary cheque & wanted to celebrate with her parents. Really a very nice & unbelievable eating place for food, decoration, amicable service people & what not. Since we didnt know they only suggested us to have foods of Ilish utsav.

If you lake bangali food, must visitTaste you will never forget

Had dinner with my friend. The food was absolutely wonderful.

Deeply Satisfying food !Mesmerising traditional Bengal feel !

More hype than good food.

Ambiance are very goodSupply of food is quite lateGhoti kabab is very goodPaturi is goodI ordered dub Sandesh after 30 min I fed up that still they cant serve it when just few people in the restaurantNelen Gur ice-cream is testy

An elegant and very nicely setup restaurant. Has a widespread variety of Bengali dishes and the tastes are really good. Must try Sunderban in mocktails Murgir Ghoti Kabab and Aloo diye Kochi maangsher jhol the last dish is mutton. The Daab Chingri was nicely balanced too. The interiors are beautiful and the decorations are very soothing. Gives you a feel of the classic old vintage set-up. The staff behavior is also very good. Overall a very nice experience and highly recommended.

Awesome Bengali food. Rich Jamindari ambiance and great service experience.

The ambience is pretty good but I didnt feel the bengali essence in the food. The ala carte variety is not much. Menu is not worthy of price.

Excellent ambience & using KASHA r bason.

Tasty food ...good ambience.... Excellent service.....

This is another bengali cuisine located at the city centre 1. Excellent sevice by the people wotking over here. The restaurant has been made with the look of old zamindari mansions with a touch of modern day and with old classical music playing inthe background.I was welcomed with a wonderful aam porar shorbet.Though I ordered a sort of customized Thali the dishes i tasted were1.Chicken Cutlet2.Mutton Galauti kebab3.Fish Fry4.Chingri Macher Chop5.luchi6.Cholar dal7.Begun Bhaja8.Bhaat9.5 Types of Bhaja10.Alu Urche sedho11.Sona Muger Dal12.5 Mishali torkari13.Bharali r pulao14.Katla Macher Kalia15.Bhetki Macher Paturi16.Chicken Dak Bungalow17.Mutton kasha18.Kacha Amer Chatni(which was just wonderful and wad made out of honey)19.PayeshI would suggest every one to visit this place specially the bong foodies. I can just assure yoh will just love the place.

From an unexpected place of western culture, a splendid slot of traditional Bengali feasting place was found with all the traditional dishes & pleasent service from the staff, ofcourse thanks to the chef. Quality & quantity both value the money. But in my opinion fish & the mutton preparations are the best to touch every Bengali food lover taste buds. Homemade style presentation also can be upto the mark and would like to again visit some time.

Very good experience over here. Must visit. Best place for bengali food lovers

Sonar Tari serves traditional bengali food. It is located at the city centre 1.Ambience, Lighting, interior, music all were giving a classic feeling.The restaurant serves food only in Kansar Bason, that is traditional bengali thing.Food quality is awesome !!!

We decided visit this place (early Feb 2020) due to good reviews about food. We saw many comments about rude staff and the staff in fact is really rude and disrespectful. We loved the food at the beginning but the terrible attitude of the staff, getting our order wrong, delays in service when there were really few people ruined our night. Good service is so important in hospitality industry and this place completely disregards this.

Went there recently with my family. In one word its wonderful! The interior decoration is exquisite. Located in the 4th floor of Block B in City Centre 1 Mall, Salt lake. Its quite good actually. Coming to the min part - The Food. It was really awesome. All the food items were fresh and delicious. They were extremely tasty 😋. If you are there definitely visit this place once.

Good place nice food good price 😁

Tooooooooo much expensive buffet,,,,,,,, totally disappointed....they are decreasing items on buffet day by day but price is increasing, lots of item was missing.. They are taking too much money for lime soda.. It was worst experience ever.

I was really impressed by the ambience of the restaurant. The presentation is excellent and the staff is also polite. The only fault was in the taste of the food. I ordered panch rokomer bhaja, sona moong daal, gobindo bhog bhaat, chutney papad and thor er thorkari. The food was not up to the expectation. I really want them to work on the taste of the food. Because only presentation will not work.

Nothing to say.. Just awesome. The food, the ambience, the crockeries everything.

New restaurant opened in city centre 1 and it is absolutely beautiful. The place is the new venture from the ambuja group and they have put is so much effort in the decor. The place is designed like a zamindars house.The food is adsolutely stunning and the attention to minute details has be kept in mind.All food is served in brass utensils and it really really tastyWe had chhanar bora, pur Bhora bhetki, chutney, chitol muitha, mete diye Enchor, mochar pulao and the dessert platter.Each and every dish tasted lovely and I had no complaints. That staff is very warm as well.The meal ended with paan. Yes they give choice of Meetha or sada paan..Dinner is a la carte and lunch is thaliThe place is not a budget eatery, fine dining experiences, but worth every bitKudos

Fantastic food and an even better ambience. The place to be for an authentic bangali experience. Sonar Tori is an experience. ♡

Expensive but beautiful 😍. Had a buffet(1200) and was tasty specially grilled fish and jhol. Kf ultra is 350 per pint. Services were best thing.

A bit costly but wonderful place for bengali cuisine.

One word for them AWESOME! Authentic Bengali cuisine with great ambience.

Excellent place. Delicious and various Bengali food items.

I was good place to go with your family....

A bit costly but food was delicious and interior decoration was awesome...

Best to enjoy different Bengali cuisine, cocktails with friends & family

Food and ambiance is really nice here. The waiter service could have been a little proactive.

Food is good. Worth the price

Prime location, Delicious Bangali food. Love the food.

Great ambience, nice behavior of the staff

One of my favourite place to hv bengali lunch. Both the veg and non veg buffet consist of numerous dishes.. dessert is nt included in buffet menu.. They have a desert platter which is just awsome to have .. my favourife is baked doi .. I hv enjoyed all the dishes here but my favorite is prawn malai curry..

Good Experience of real Bengali food and the interiors give a feeling of Bengals traditional houses. Very authentic environment.Its, in City Centre I Mall (Salt Lake).Mode of commutation: by Taxi, Atuo, Metro (please refer to Kolkatta metro map) ,Car, Rickshaw....

Good food with a perfect Bengali Bonedi ambience

I have visited the restaurant on poila boisakh. I really like the decoration and ambiance of the place but rest other things are not up to the mark. They charged veg thali 1099 and non veg thali 1299 but I must say food quality and quantity both are not value for money. They charged 500 rupees for service charge which is really very high. Overall I am very disappointed with the place.

Beautiful ambience with good food and good service

This restaurant is situated in City centre . Bengali themed resturant and this serves both cocktail and mocktail. This is kids friendly. Best place to enjoy bengali food. Ambience is just superb. Dont just come here to enjoy the food , rather come here to gather new experience and to create memories. Best place for aiburobhat. They offer both thali and a la carte. Must try green mango mocktails which is famous here. All kinds of drinks are nicely presented and well garnished. This place is is nicely decorated with nice sitting arrangments. All the staffs are very much cordial and hospitable. This is the perfect example of luxury dining

Beautiful place, great light and ambience.

Mediocre food.. ambience is good so is service..

Though the food is authentic bengali type, the restaurant people cheat the customers on the bill. They charge extra 7.5% for service charges. Which is illegal.

This is probably the only place Ive been to where the Bengali dishes were better than my mothers, given the fact that I eat out quite a lot. Their daab-chingri was sublime and melt-in-the-mouth and the bombay duck samosa was the perfect starter. Honorary mention, chitol maacher muitha and alur dom. Although the smell of ghee was quite overpowering in the shukto, that was overlooked by the food that followed.Also, their presentation is beautiful if not nostalgia inducing. Would definitely recommend.

Good ambience. Nicely decorated. Food quality is good. Polite attitude staf. Smoke friendly. Alcohol available.

Lovely ambience with delicious bengali food. They care their guest just like we care our guest when they come to our home . ❤
