Pure vegetarian restaurants where everyone at the table, from grandparents to little ones, leaves happy.

A family meal has its own set of requirements. The menu needs to stretch far enough for grandparents, children, and the picky cousin who's going through a phase. The room needs to be calm enough for conversation and lively enough that nobody's bored. And the food needs to be the kind that doesn't require explanation. Kolkata's vegetarian restaurant scene handles all of this quite well, and these are the ones worth gathering around.
