Oudh 1590 Vivekananda Park - Restaurant in Kolkata - Kolkata, India

The service and ambience is okay. Biryani was awful!! Trust me street vendors sell better biryani. Also I found egg shell. Additionally the potato wasn't cooked well. The chicken dish was bitter. However the gandhoraj fish in the starter was good. That was the only good part about this dining experience. We were so disappointed that we did not order dessert.

We visited this branch for dinner, In appetizers we ordered chicken Reshmi kabab and Zaffrani chicken kabab which were tasty and flavorful, for beverages we ordered Soda Shikanji that was refreshing. In main course we ordered Raan biryani which was very spicy and mutton also didn't taste good. Ambiance was nice. I hope next time it will be better.

Subz makhan masala with Veg Biryani at Oudh 1590 Of all the restaurants and cafes, we visited so far in Kolkata this was a big dhoka. Contrary to popular vegetarian Avadhi recipes, this one had hardly any veg options! The biryani was a sham and more like fried rice. The subz makhan masala had hardly any subzi. The dark interiors give the place a ghost like atmosphere. I suppose the statue of bearded man at the entrance is more for supernatural effect! A big let down

This was our first time at the Southern Avenue outlet and to say the least it was as good as the other outlet near Deshapriya park if not more. The staffs were very cooperative and would attend our needs at the earliest. They were very attentive to the orders and would serve them very quickly. They even recommended the quantity we should take and it was quite accurate. Now coming on to the ambience we absolutely got the feel that we were at a Nawabi palace with the music and the interior decoration amplifying the feel. One thing I didn't like was the advertisement screen which was anyway not going with the interiors and was quite irritating at times. The things we ordered, 1. Mutton Galouti kebab (4.5/5) 2. Lucknowi Paratha (4/5) 3. Gosht Handi Biryani (3.5/5) 4. Chicken Shahi Korma (4/5) 5. Mutton bhuna (3.5/5) 6. Phirni (4/5) 7. Shahi Tukra (4.5/5) You definitely go for lunch or dinner and it would not disappoint. Just one recommendation though, please go for the dine-in experience rather than delivery. The ambience elevates the experience.

Love this place and food. This place will make you feel like you are in royal place. Foods are awesome. I am vegetarian so I tried biryani with paneer tikka gravy and raita . Price If bit high but quality and quantity is good

The ambience is really good. The interiors make it a perfect place to click pictures. We ordered Lucknow paratha and galouti kabab. I didn't like it much. It's because I don't like dry items. Also I tasted biryani from my friends. Even that I felt dry. Maybe few people will like it. But those who can't eat dry items will not like it that much.

Looking forward not to visit Oudh 1590 ever again. Their Quality has detoriated a lot from where it was a couple of years ago. This is not because of Durga Puja. I ordered 1 month ago also and at that time also the same problems i faced with quantity and quality. Yesterday I ordered Tandoori roti which was normal roti as per the staff and we were amazed by this. The mutton rogan josh was degraded. The chicken awadhi biriyani was much worse than a 90 bucks biriyani available at the streets. The Photos are also posted to have a look.

This place has the most amazing mutton galawti kebabs. Pair them with the soft parathas (obviously). This trip I tried their awadhi handi biriyani and while I love delicate spices, the biriyani didn't stand out to me. I got the chicken chaap to compliment the biriyani and it was yum! Fine interiors, thumri on loop - ambience was fine. I did wish they had seats for 2 people to enjoy a cozy lunch. I'd say choose this restaurant when in big groups so you can taste variety.
