For example, the chicken was just tough and another chicken dish was full of bones. The daal was watery and the pakaoras were cold. This is not acceptable. Service - non-existent. Other than bringing out bottled water that they charged us for, never saw the server again. We just kept piling up the plates on the table and that was that. Cleanliness - not good. The tables and the floor were grimy and the bathroom was horrendous, which says a lot since we were there at lunch. How bad could've it have gotten in the 30 to 45 minutes that they had been open? That tells you they do not clean. But what got to me was their dishonesty in pricing. The guy at the register charged me more and when I questioned him, he said that the prices had changed. I paid whatever he asked because I knew I was never going to go back and a few dollars did not matter, but when you have someone running a business in such an unethical manner, that is not a place you want to recommend or ever visit again.

Run by a mom & daughter duo, Amma & Nur-E are truly so down-to-earth, full of positivity, and their energy is luminous. Amma is genuinely passionate about her craft and unbelievably humble! We arrived 10 minutes before 8pm and were greeted by Nur-E who literally shook our hands and welcomed us with open arms. The restaurant seats ~18 people so you can imagine how intimate, curated, and deeply rooted in tradition this dinner felt. Amma is from Dhaka, Bangladesh and with every course that came out, Nur-E described it to us in her expert storytelling ways! Everything we had was incredible. The Mango Lassi is blended by hand for that perfect consistency and refreshing, lightly sweet, homemade taste! After 5 whole courses came out, Nour-E came out and told us we had 7 more to go! So definitely come hungry and know you will leave beyond satisfied. My favorites were the Lau Chingri (Shrimp & Bottle Gourd Squash), the Rohu Fish Fried, the Murgir (Chicken) Roast & Palao, Beef Curry (Gorur Gostho) and Khashir (Goat) Biryani. Basically everything we had!! Each dish was balanced in depth, richness, and heat. The meats & fish were so tender, the rices were unbelievably fragrant, and the sauces were aromatic and layered rather than just spicy. The Rohu Fish Fried is imported from Bangladesh and lightly coated in spices and pan-fried until golden brown. This was my first time having this fish and it won't be my last! The Murgir (Chicken) Roast & Palao will live rent free in my head for a long time. It's richly caramelized, light yet aromatic, and deliciously comforting. I can see why this is usually a celebratory dish and is the only dish that Amma will serve at every Dawat Dinner! This dish is so popular that you can now find the recipe on Food & Wine. Speaking of accomplishments, the Lau Chingri (Shrimp & Bottle Gourd Squash) was named one of The New York Times' Best Dishes of 2025. We were also so lucky that Amma made her Mishti Doi for dessert! It's a sweet yogurt that has a custard-like creaminess and was the perfect way to end the meal after all those incredible flavors. We were so grateful to get a special one in a traditional clay pot. Also, there's tons of food but the staff will package any leftovers for you to take with you! They've literally thought of everything to make this an exceptional experience. Nur-E closed our dinner saying "food is life's greatest connector" and I couldn't agree more! Amma is truly an inspiration for opening Korai Kitchen at 61 years old, becoming a James Beard Nominee at 67 and getting 3 Stars from New York Times, and now signing her first cook book deal at 69. This is definitely in my top 10 meals of 2026 and is one of the most memorable meals I've ever had. I can't recommend Korai Kitchen enough.

The ambiance is largely due to daughter Nure whose incredible passion and enthusiasm throughout the night in describing Bengali culture, history and food was incredible! Mom and daughter combine to create an unforgettable dining experience that for me is unmatched and never to be forgotten. They are such gracious hosts and make everyone feel like family. As delicious as the food is, be prepared to take a lot home. You enter Korai Kitchen hungry, curious and with great anticipation. You leave full, satisfied and part of the family! Sorry for the lack of pics. I just went in as soon as the dishes started arriving, eager to savor the meal rather than to record it. My advice: Just go! Its a culinary adventure!

There was a huge variety of items, over 30 of them. They had the special like haleem, jilapi, fried items like beguni, peyaju, and kababs like jali and shikh. The sitting area was used for putting the items on display. The restaurant itself is showing signs of age. It doesn't look very clean. I bought two full platters of items, and three biryani trays. The staff was really patient with me, as I was shopping over 20 minutes. Got a small discount for paying by cash. Among the food I tried, the goat and chicken biryani were excellent. Loved the keema kabab and aloo chop. Fried items were not good at all. Chotpoti and haleem were also not up to the standard. But jilapi and misti doi were very tasty. We were sort of disappointed with such mix quality of the food.

However, over our last three visits, we've noticed several concerns: The taste of the food has changed, and some dishes were not properly cooked. The karahi gosht is no longer prepared the way it used to be, and the portion size has also been reduced. The seating arrangement feels too cramped for the space, making it difficult to move around comfortably. When concerns are raised, the standard response is simply, "we will let them know," without any visible follow-up. We genuinely enjoy dining here and would like to continue visiting. However, the inconsistency in food quality, along with pricing and portion concerns, has been disappointing and is making us reconsider. I would greatly appreciate it if the owner could give attention to these issues, particularly ensuring consistency in food quality and taste.
