Calcutta Kitchens 448 Broadway, Kingston, NY 12401

"Maybe you are searching for an Indian restaurant which cooks and serves dishes like a real Indian home? This place is it. I have dined in numerous Indian establishments in Europe and the USA ( and NYC of course) and this place is hands down in my top two Indian places I have ever eaten in. Why? Cause it makes dishes in a way no restaurant does. It's totally home style fare where every dish feels like your mom made it. The spices are controlled and delicate, every dish shines and is made in the right way, the desserts are all cutesy, fresh and amazing tasting. Also you will find dishes which you will never find anywhere especially the south and east Indian ones. They have a pantry full of take home, freeze and eat goodies. And bonus is the well stocked Indian grocery store which has all the essentials ( including Dosa and Idli batter). Just amazing."

"This place is one of our favorites in Kingston! As avid lovers of Indian cuisine, my husband and I think this is some of the best we've ever had. We often get one veg tiffin and one meat to share and they are the perfect portions for lunch or dinner. You also have to try the spicy pickles!"

"Loved this sweet, cozy spot with excellent vegetarian options and delightful chai! Also a super cute little grocery store with tasty Indian staples and swag. Yum!"

"We loved this shop! Everything we had was terrific. We tried both of the daily tiffin (chicken and vegetarian), the kheer, limeade and the rosemary shortbread and the flavors were terrific. There is a great selection of grocery items as well and we got a perfect mango, a mango lassi and some spicy snack mix. All great and we left happy. This is the kind of place you will want to go back to again and again."

"Was surprised to see a desi place like this in Kingston and when we went there wasn’t disappointed. The food ,decor and service overall just brightened our day . Especially didn’t expect the food to be halal but the owner(I believe) confirmed it (it was really nice to meet her). It would be our go to place whenever we go to Kingston. Highly Recommended"
