Amazing and attentive service, delicious food, and good prices. I've walked by a dozen times and am so glad we finally stopped in!

I grew up in Calcutta and though this wasn't my staple food, it was an enjoyable treat I reminisce about often. It's hard to find Bengali food represented amongst the numerous incredible Indian food establishments throughout this country. So when we chanced upon this spot on our maps, we had to drive out to LIC to give it a try. And the food did not disappoint! The luchi alu dum was excellent but the eggplant cooked in mustard oil truly transported me back home. read more

Ordered delivery from here and had a good experience. Butter chicken was amazing and a must-order. The singhara was also excellent - loved the sauce it came with. Garlic naan was meh, just very bready with not very much garlic. Also had the baign bharta but it wasn't too memorable. Get the butter chicken!! read more

I came here a couple years ago and I wasn't that pleased by the restaurant quality and cleanliness; however recently I came in at the end of 2025 and I was amazed at how they turned around with each of their dishes. I came in with a large group of about eight people so we tried a lot of the menu. Each dish was flawless, quality, and not overly oily. I would definitely come back because the taste of the food was delicious. Service was amazing and they allowed BYOB. Cleanliness was a lot better as well and it seemed like they had more patrons than when they first opened. I'm not so sure if they changed ownership but the food was great and I will be coming back in the future! Taste: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 5/5 read more

I came here to grab some food to-go and had a pleasant experience! The interior of the restaurant is casual, and there's plenty of seating. The staff here are super sweet and easy to talk to. I got their butter chicken with garlic naan and it took about 10 minutes for my order to be ready. Would love to come back to try their $13 lunch special! read more

Came to Oh Calcutta for dinner with a friend - we arrived early on a weekend night and there was plenty of seating, though it did start to fill up later. I started off with a masala chai tea which was delicious and warmed me up. Then we split a butter chicken, saag paneer, and garlic naan. The entrees also each came with a bowl of white rice. Everything was absolutely delicious and the portions were generous. Service was fast and courteous, and our water glasses were never left empty. A true neighborhood gem when craving Indian food! read more

If you're interested in trying a different type of Indian food that's beyond just normal stuff you get, this is the place to go because They have Bengali style Indian food. The prices are very reasonable and the staff is friendly, the owner came and had a nice friendly convo with us. I appreciated that the food wasn't heavy on the creams and oils Food we got - puchka: nice potato filling - jhal muri: little rice puffs roasted in mustard oil - cholar dal: standard yellow lentil daal - chorchuri: mixed veggie dish - begun basanti: AMAZING, the best dish we had 100% - methi mutter malai paneer: not a fan of this dish, it was like malai paneer dish but more tomato forward and methi thrown in - aloo bhartha: second favorite dish, fun flavors - garlic and onion naan: well cooked and good flavors Ambiance: more of a fast casual vibe but better service than a fast casual place Overall, great place and appreciate opportunities to eat different type of indian cuisines! read more

Really 3.5 stars. Quite restaurant in lic. Family owned and run, with byob. The mullguwahty soup was alright, nothing super flavorful. A decent lentil soup. The Gobi Manchurian pretty good, but the portions in general are on the small side. The bhindi (okra) was stir fried with chopped up onions and tomatoes, it's a dry dish. It was good enough. The chole (garbanzo bean) curry had a thick tomatoes based curry, also nice. The rice has some fennel flavor. We had the chili onion Naan. I did not enjoy it, it was very thick, and you could barely taste the chili or the onion. Service is great and very friendly. Our waiter was clearly new at with tables and did not know the menu.. perhaps it was his first day.. he also didn't know how to cork a wine bottle. Just an observation, it had no impact on our meal. read more

Their Bhel puri is top notch. Brought back memories of India. The Veg biriyani is as it says, it's got loads of varieties of vegetables which is unusual at any restaurant serving biriyani...And they taste amazing!! read more

The shrimp tikka masala and the onion chilli naan were quite delicious! We ate at their spacious outdoor space. The staff were nice and welcoming! read more

Recommend! Recommend! We tried an appetizer, soup, two entrees, naan and a dessert. Everything was delish. The service was very good. It's an informal atmosphere (very friendly) and the Staff kept our water glasses filled (and I drink a lot of water). Will go back and try some of the other items on the menu, although what we had would be worth a repeat. I also am impressed with the price point of the entrees. Very reasonable. It was cold out and I asked for a hot drink. The Masala Chai ($3) was slightly sweet and very good. For an appetizer, we shared a Tangara Gobi Manchurian ($9.50), which is a nice portion for sharing of cauliflower in a hot chili paste. Perfect level of spice for us and delicious flavor. Also shared a Mulligatawny Soup ($6.50). Again, nice size for sharing and the lemon really highlighted the flavors in the soup. For entrees, we got Saag Paneer ($15.50) and Vegetable Makhni (same price). Both had a lot of flavor. The Garlic Naan ($3.50) was good - could have used a bit more garlic. Just to try it, we got a side of Beguni (4 slices of fried eggplant - $8.50). That had a nice flavor also. When the server put the rice on our table she told us we could get more if we asked for it. Since everything was so good, we decided to share a dessert. Kulfi (ice cream - choice of pistachio or mango - we got mango - $4) was light and flavorful. We took much of the entrees and Beguni home as leftovers. There was lots of food. read more

Good new Indian place in lic. Great service with takeout. The food was plentiful in terms of size. Nice mixture of things in the menu. Food flavor was good on the chicken vindaloo. Nan was good as well: white rice cokes with every order. Raita as good as was read more

Absolutely incredible Indian meal from start to finish. The fish fry was perfectly crisp and packed with flavor, the spicy cauliflower had just the right kick, and the shrimp vindaloo was rich, bold, and beautifully spiced without overpowering the shrimp. And the garlic naan? Soft, buttery perfection -- ideal for soaking up every last bit of sauce. Every dish felt thoughtful, balanced, and deeply satisfying. Oh! Calcutta .... we'll be back read more

My friends and I enjoyed a Saturday dinner at this restaurant. I've walked by it multiple times and even saw it mentioned on a NYT article! Many entrees are within the $15-20 range, with the exception of the seafood dishes, which are affordable. We ordered 4 entrees and garlic naan bread. We checked with the server if they felt that was enough food; we were told "each entree is enough for one person", which is true. If one were to do takeout of an entree and rice, that would have been enough for a meal, so I'd say the prices were fair. We ordered the - Paneer Tikka Masala - Butter Chicken - Now the Paneer Tikka Masala and Butter Chicken were the exact same but different protein. This was my favorite, but sharing amongst 4 it wasn't as much protein as I'd like especially for a sharing style restaurant. But it would have been plenty if one was ordering to enjoy by their self - Goat Mughlai Biryani - Great with the yogurt sauce. The goat meat was good but may opt for an easier protein with less bones next time. - Chorchori- wanted a veggie dish. Everyone's lesser favorite on the table - Butter Naan - It felt more of a a means to soak up the sauce of the tikka masala dishes (low-key if you're getting takeout here I'd just pick up garlic naan from TJs) - Gulab Jamun - My friend encouraged us to order. It was a great sweet treat to end to the meal! Service was solid as they came around and refilled waters when cups were empty. The interior has a main dining room with smaller-sized tables. Very casual dining space; I think the lighting could be improved that would elevate the vibes a bit more, but still solid if you're looking to have good food in the area with no need for a reservation. read more

Authentic recipes made with love. Their yellow lentil soup is to die for. The chicken biryani hot the spot. The food can be customized to your spice level. I would definitely return and make my way / sample through other items on the menu read more

This is a great spot for Indian food of a slightly uncomventional flavor. I tried two vegetarian dishes which both came with jeera rice. The begun basanti (eggplant) had eggplant cooked to a buttery texture, with a nutty gravy and pronounced pungent flavor from mustard oil. The methi mutter malai paneer was rich and creamy, with a complex gravy and perfectly soft paneer. Both dishes definitely skew towards the rich and creamy side, and I felt that the quantity was enough for two meals. Prices were pretty reasonable at $34 total after taxes. I'll definitely come back sometime to try the other menu items. read more

Came here for an early dinner and the waitress kindly went through recommendations on her menu. Chicken korma - a decent version with lots of herbs and very creamy, but it didn't have the nutrients that I like in korma (Sahib still best for this) Baigan bharta: an eggplant dish that's tomato in base. Friend is a big fan of this; I thought it was a good contrast but not my favorite. Entrees come with rice and we got the paneer Naan as well which is like a quesadilla. It was good but would opt for a different Naan next time. There's a lot more regional dishes I haven't seen before that I think I'll try next time that I'm here. read more

First off, the service is amazing. We had the friendliest and most smiley man come and take our orders. He also gave some recommendations upon our request, and our cups were never empty of water. We had the Chili Chicken, Garlic and Jalapeno Cheese Naan, Shrimp Tikka Masala, and Murghir Jhol. Everything was yummy, but my husband and I agreed the best items were the Jalapeno Cheese Naan and Shrimp Tikka Masala. They're able to adjust spice level in case you're someone who is unable to handle spice. The place was quiet, unassuming, and brightly lit. We hope to see more people try this place soon! read more

The food was amazing-- we ordered the gobi manchurian, chapli kabab, butter chicken, and paneer tikka. All dishes were tasty and filled with flavor. Nishan served us, and his service was excellent. Definitely will be coming back! read more

Oh Calcutta had pretty good Indian food. I'm glad I've tried it, but it's nothing to write home about, and I don't really think about coming back either. I enjoyed their Rogan Josh - a delicious lamb dish and their Gobi Manchurian. I also got their butter chicken and their shrimp tikka masala, both of which I didn't really care about. The butter chicken was a bit dry and the shrimp tikka was more pasty than a smooth curry. I wouldn't come to LIC to try Indian food anyway since Adda relocated. read more

Definitely check this new Indian/Bangali Cuisine in the heart of LIC . Right on the corner , easy from the 7 Train Vernon Blvd Station. Staff was very welcoming and the owner was a sweetheart. Now on to the food we tried the CHAPLI Kabab, Butter Chicken , Lamb Bhunawala Mirchawala etc . Everything was super delicious . No wonder why they were the talk of the town on NY Times.

I dream about this Indian food. The owners are so welcoming and always have the best recommendations. I love their Rogan Josh and Malai Kofta. Plenty of seating inside, super clean and organized. read more

Oh! Calcutta feels like a real gem. The vibe hits you first--lots of warm light, art, and well-designed space that's as inviting as the staff. Everyone working here actually listens, checks in about food and comfort, and puts care into getting things right. The menu leans big: not just the classics, but a genuine spread for vegetarians too. The potato Dum Aloo and fluffy luchi are comfort food done just right, and the lamb curries--Kosha Mangsho and Rogan Josh--bring a depth of flavor you crave. Pakoras and veggie cutlets start things off perfectly crisp and fresh. That signature Roohafza lemonade is a fun, tangy twist. Prices line up with the quality, so you leave satisfied, not swindled. Street parking never hurts. It's the kind of meal and hospitality that sticks with you--straightforward, nothing canned or artificial, just solid Indian cooking and thoughtful service in the heart of the city. read more

I ordered delivery. Very fresh but not much flavor or spice. Maybe I caught them on an off night. I may try them again but in person.

love this spot, curries are always on point and in generous amount we sat outside tonight and the service was amazing as usual.

Oh! Calcutta is hands down the best Indian restaurant I've ever been to. The food is amazing I felt like I could have eaten two servings of their butter chicken with garlic naan, it was that good. The staff is warm, welcoming, and make you feel right at home. If you love Indian food, put this restaurant on your list you won't regret it. read more

Really yummy Indian cuisine, this is another restaurant where I've always been pleased with all the good food I've eaten. And the price of a meal here is not unreasonable. I will return. Highly recommended. read more

Food itself is usually good, which makes this even more frustrating. Delivery took over 2 hours (we had to cancel after 2 hours and 20 minutes of no show) which is absolutely not normal or acceptable. If you're ordering for delivery, I wouldn't recommend it at all. Dine-in or pickup might be fine, but delivery was a very poor experience. read more

Delicious, delicious , delicious food . We are blessed to have this restaurant in the neighborhood. Very good and friendly delivery service as well. read more

Horrible ventilation. Extremely smoky sizzling dish came out and it filled the entire dining room with smoke. For quite a while they didn't even open a door. It was so bad I almost left. Made it hard to breathe. The worst I've ever seen. Food was ok. read more

Great, fresh and very tasty food. Stuff are friendly and welcoming. We will definitely come back! Recommend will full heart

I came to the city this weekend to visit my girlfriend and we decided to get Indian food for dinner. Although my girlfriend has had Indian food before, I never experienced it. The staff was incredible, and the food was absolutely delicious. We ordered Tangara Gobi Manchurian as an appetizer. For our entrees, we chose the Butter Chicken and the Salmon Tikka along with an order of garlic Naan and Alu Partha which was amazing! We can't wait to go back. Linda and the entire staff was superb. read more

The food was okay--appetizing but not particularly memorable. I had the malai kofta, which was unfortunately bland and lacked the rich flavor I was expecting. The samosas were light but not very filling, while my friend enjoyed her lamb dish. The rice and garlic naan were good, probably the highlights of the meal for me. The restaurant itself was clean with plenty of seating, and the service was polite, though nothing stood out. I might have just picked the wrong dish, but overall, I've had more flavorful Indian food elsewhere. read more

Service was quick and attentive to receive my take out order. Josh Rogan - a good helping of lamb with a excellent balance of spices - could have used a bit more spice. Chicken Korma - chicken was tender and the curry had a rich flavor that made it super tasty Garlic Naan - it's garlic naan, what else is there left to say? Cool spot to dine in or take-out! read more

The food and service was good, but there wasn't any semblance to Bengali food. Being Bengali, the food seemed normal North Indian and nothing special. read more

This is the 3rd Indian cuisine at this very location. I like the modern touch decor and service was good. Hubby and I went for dinner on a weekday and they were not busy. We ordered the Butter Chicken (their version of chicken tikka masala), Saag Paneer and Garlic Naan. Food was okay but not great. I guess we just missed the one from before. read more

My wife and I had a lovely lunch at Oh Calcutta! in Long Island City. The food was excellent, with authentic flavors that highlighted the richness of Bengali cuisine. The menu was extensive, offering a great variety of Bengali dishes, along with the usual North Indian favorites, making it a perfect spot for anyone looking to explore this unique regional cuisine. We ordered the chicken curry (murgir jhol in Bengali), the dry mutton (khosha mansho), luchi (Bengali bread), some drinks and the fish fry. The service was equally outstanding--prompt, friendly, and attentive, making our dining experience even more enjoyable. Lastly, I have eaten many times at the popular namesake chain in Delhi and though there is no connection with those restaurants, the food is just as good. We'll definitely be back! read more

Really great food and drinks. Plenty of fun things to drink if you're not into alcohol (get the mango lassi or a lemonade for sure). We were three very hungry people and had a few chaats, samosas, gobi, naan, saag paneer, a yellow lentil, and a lamb curry dish--we had food leftover! All so good, you cannot go wrong. I wish we had room for dessert because they had a few options that looked delicious (mango or pistachio ice cream, rose syrup dough balls, hi hello). The service was friendly and helpful with our questions about various options, spice levels, and recommendations. Will definitely go back! Looked good for a date night experience and groups of 5-8. read more

I wanted to give a shout out to a local restaurant in LIC. it is Oh Calcutta! on Jackson Avenue / I admit I was skeptical after the previous Indian restaurants at this location has horrendous reviews along with the health code violations of the previous one. But read a positive review from NY Times, so I checked it out...and I am glad I did... Food is fantastic, unique flavors from any other Indian restaurant I have tried...The interior is clean and modern, and the staff is very friendly and attentive. Almost suprised a place this good is in LIC, lolz...You should definitely check them and support a local spot. The backyard is also very nice, Judy and I were discussing it would be a great spot ot have another group dinner sometime in a few weeks, it is also BYOB. read more
