If you’re craving something different from the usual South Indian spots around Kolkata, Kaanji in Howrah is worth a try. Located near Dumurjala Jhil, this place serves some unique and flavourful dishes at super reasonable prices. The Kolapata Biryani (₹160) really stands out – wrapped in banana leaf and finished on a hot tawa, it has a lovely aroma and great taste. The Bamboo Chicken (₹180) is smoky, tender, and nicely marinated. Mutton Sukkha with Malabar Porota is a comforting, spicy combo, and the prawns are perfect if you enjoy a bit of heat. Don’t skip the filter coffee and kesari halwa for a satisfying end. Pocket-friendly (around ₹400–500 for two) and different from the usual menu – a good spot for a casual food outing.

Tried out the newly opened Kaanji and it’s a lovely little spot! The ambiance is warm and welcoming, with a cozy setup that’s perfect for catching up with friends or getting some work done. The menu has a nice selection of foods . I ordered the Malgapodi Dosa, Dahi Vada and Kerala Fried Chicken , Filter Coffee and it was absolutely delicious — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The coffee was smooth and well-made too. The staff were friendly and attentive, making sure everything was to our liking. It’s clear they’re passionate about what they do, and it shows in both the service and the food. I’ll definitely be coming back soon.

"Food coma alert! 🍴👌 Had an amazing meal at Kanji! Kolapata Biriyani was flavorful, Bamboo Chicken was smoky perfection, and Mutton Sukha was spicy goodness! Kanjipuram Dosa was crispy, Kesari Halwa was sweet indulgence, and Filter coffee was just what I needed to round it off. Highly recommend! 5/5 stars! 😋

Ambience is good but service is very poor They prefer Zomato more than customer waiting at table. Even after taking order of customer at table first but prioritising zomato customer over same order Third class services they provide They don't maintain professional services
