Hondo's - Kolkata (Calcutta)

The thing which strikes most about Hondo's, is not only are the food selection great, but the prices and quantity are mind blowing. Till now, I have ordered from Hondo's over 15 times, but still have never been to the restaurant in person. There are highs and lows of my experience with them, some of them I'll highlight 7th Feb 17 First order. Pork Chops and Hen in the Blanket. Absolutely stunning. Succulent pork chops, with absolutely juicy fat content, and the hen in the blanket was very good too. The sausages were nicely coated with a light oily layer with cheese and the potato was delicious. Totally 5/5 experience. Over the next few order, I've tried multiple items including Pork Ribs, Jacket Potato etc. Sometime around late April 17 I ordered Pork Chops (x2), Quarter Chicken, Hogged Chicken. by far the most disappointing order. The chops were really overdone and plastic y, the bacon in the hogged chicken was too hard, and there was a queer smell from the quarter chicken. This was the first time I was introducing Hondo's to my parents, and it was just sad. There has been 3 4 orders between this period, most of them were good, but on another occasion, I got Pork Ribs instead of the ordered Pork Chops, no big deal. 22nd May 2017 Ordered the original hamburger with cheese and beef tenderloin steak, both for the first time. Oh god, the burger is just heavenly, has to be one of the best burgers I have had. Perfectly crispy patty on the outside, soft and fall apart insides, the sauce applied goes really well. The beef steak was pretty good, but somehow, the mashed potatoes provided surprised me. Surprisingly buttery and fluffy. Again a 5/5 experience. 25th May 2017 Hunger strikes early morning. I wanted a burger, but it was missing from the order menu in Zomato, so I got a Non Veg Breakfast Platter. Perfectly cooked bacon, excellent eggs and crunchy hash browns. The onions were a little too peppery, but overall again a 5/5 experience. This is just a small preview of my experience with Hondo's. All of them has been on delivery, so I don't know about their decor and hospitality as such.

I was curious to visit this culinary destination for a long time. Just happened to pamper my taste buds here after along aimless voyage. It was a busy affair at Hondo's that day with preparations for display of new menu and the gentleman at the far end corner of the restaurant, passionately coordinating everything. Once, you step inside, the meticulously done amazing decor and the carefree ambience will take you to a multi culinary land! Those cocktail sausages were so so so very delicious and mouthwatering. I would just request the owners to make the seating arrangement in full operation only when it is spacious enough. Otherwise, the tiny space with the kitchen close and people sitting very close to each other might lead to an unfortunate incident.

A very cozy place to hang around with friends and loved ones. 24*7 hours open is a classic heart winner, definitely something like a life saver deal. A place that must be explored by food lovers and conti-lovers. The ambience is comfortable and friendly, with coloured lights and music. If you are looking for a quality time with someone close and good food...You must reach Hondo's... just anytime ! Anindita Bose

I visited Honda's today afternoon and I absolutely loved my experience there. Its not just the memories of delicious food that you will keep with you but its the lovely hospitality thats remains engraved in your heart. The restaurant has a 8 10 seater arrangement with a beautiful decor and quirky drawings on the walls. Though we had to wait for 20 25mins for a place, it was worth the wait. We had ordered Pig in the pocket as starter and masala cola and sweet lime soda. The dish was very appetising. Now coming to the main course we ordered two tenderloin steak one with brown sauce and another with pepper mushroom sauce. Both were cooked medium rare and served with mash and boiled vegetables and poached egg. This is the best steak I had in Kolkata. Both of them were cooked perfectly and the sauce had great flavours. Further, I had informed them that its my friends birthday just as I entered. They had arranged for a molten lava cake and written happy birthday with chocolate sauce.They even played birthday songs and clicked photos for us. It was a overwhelming experience.They even gave us a printed version of our photo which I felt was really a sweet gesture. Moreover, I also packed cheesy potato jacket with mushroom and corn for my parents and they absolutely loved the innovative dish. In short, Honda's is a small restaurant with a really big heart I will definitely revisit again!! P.S. They are promoting the habbit of hand written letters that are dying nowadays and gave us a postcard each and we got a chance to sent these post card to our friends living outside Kolkata.

We are people from the 'dog world ' and our hours are ungodly! To find a decent place which resonates with our timings is a relief! Lovely food,smiling guy who catered to us(my cousin and me) and a cute ambience. We went at after 1am on saturday(technically sunday). I do wish the portions are increased slightly,and also some new offers for regular clients will be a huge turn on for us to return back to the place with our children. Otherwise also we do intend to revisit when hunger calls. Good entrepreneurship!
