Review Seasonal Tastes - Kolkata (Calcutta)

Sreya Chakraborty
Visited to attend a South Asian Food Festival. The experience did not meet expectations in terms of quality and variety of food that should have been included in the food festival. Overall ambience and service are good though.

Seasonal Tastes is a 5-Star Restaurant Section at The Westin, Rajarhat. Located just opposite to Eco Park in Newtown, this is a luxurious section for all types of food variant depending on whatever speciality you wish to choose The premium lounge with the phenomenal seating area along with the live music stage and imported beverages needs no description. The buffet counter with live kitchen serving amazing varieties like Bengali, India, Tandoor, Oriental, Asian, Continental and what not !! Their desserts sections can be a bit subtle but can be considerable. One of the best and largest buffets I have ever came across in Kolkata's 5-star properties Budget may not be considered here but if you want to enjoy a luxurious premium buffet with amazing spread, I would fully reccommend everyone. Truly a "5-star" experience !!

Easily one of the best European brunch spread on offer. The variety in the buffet was mind-boggling. The fried or grilled fish 🐠 items served on the spot lacked character. The corn pulao was a fantastic dish along with the mutton. The ambience is fantastic. service was professional but could have had bit more personal touch.

Recommend to visit at least once. It is one of the best buffets available in the town. Spread, taste, atmosphere & service are all great. Use Zomato gold discounts 😉

Seasonal taste is the restaurant of Westin. I visited the place in one of the weekdays and the food was really awesome. It costed 1829 per head with taxes in weekdays. I visited there with my husband and we both really enjoyed the food. The service was also very good and the view from there was awesome.

Went there for dinner with family to celebrate my mother in law's birthday. The food was absolutely amazing.... The ambience was lovely too.... We took buffet there.... And so many options to explore.... The view from 10th floor was the bonus point...

Update: Visited the place for the third time with family and still live it. Must visit. Loved the places and the variety at the buffet was much more than what is on offer at J W Kitchen. The things we ordered at the live counter was delivered to the table really late and the drinks that they had was not being refreshed. That's the only critique i have for the place. This is a must visit and i would be paying the place a second visit soon.

Really great ambiance. It's self service for the buffet. The buffet was great especially because of the assortment. We availed the Zomato Carnival offer. Go there keeping time in hand because there are so many desserts and starters.

Visited here on 8th May, 2023. Had a booking via swiggy dineout ₹GIRF festival. Earlier I had called them about the booking and their cooperation was indeed good. It's situated on the 10th floor of the Westin hotel. Everything, the service, the warmth was top notch. We had the booking on 12.30 and as it was said that we have to step in 15 minutes prior to avail the offer. The buffet was supposed to be started at 12.30pm so we were waiting. And they started it exactly the clock ticks to 12.30 pm. The buffet was gorgeously lavish! And it contained every possible item from each corner of the world. First we tried the starter section. The salad, chicken tikka kebab, and chili fish was superb. The kebabs were on a little drier side. The chili fish was to die for. Next we tried the western frill section. Pan seared fish with orange reduction sauce, thyme roasted potato, baked corn spinach, Ratatouille, grilled chicken salad, l Japanese buns and many more. Nah we didn't try all of this. Well, we couldn't have that much food. Every item was delicious. From the live grill section, you can try any kind of grills available there. The chef told that they could send every kind of grills to our table but we couldn't have had everything so we went for only prawn. There were Topshe fry , and other grills too. It tastes a bit bitter but the dip was to die for. We had that mango chili dip with the western grills too. We also tried some pork popperoni, pork sausage salad, spicy lamb salad, (wasn't spicy though, decent) and pickle cabbage with chicken along with the western grills. Tried some cheese from the cheese section - Cheddar, Edam , grana padano, gouda just a little bit. Besides these there were a lot though. There were all ingredients, one can self prepare any kind of burger from these ingredients. After that , we came to the mains. Mutton biryani , laal maas, rice and all kind of sides like daal, pickle and many more. Mutton biryani was not at all, like any other buffet. I would recommend to try white rice with the laal maas. The laal maas was absolutely delicious. There were Paratha, achaar, chicken and many more. Finally, we came to the dessert section. Oh my my! What wasn't there. There were all kinds of seasonal fruits, sweets gluten and non- gluten pastries, tarts and what not! Absolutely glamorous! I'm not a fan of sweets but, he is. He tried rosogolla, and the other sweets and said it was more than his expectations. And I tried almost every kind of gluten pastries ( as much as I could try lol) tarts just one bite because I was already full. 😭 Each and every item was totally out of the world! The service was top notch. There wasn't any wastage left on the table. They were cleaning it immediately. Also the warmth of the service was noticable and impressive. The view from the 10th floor is quite good on the daylight. You wouldn't see anything at night. Allover, it was a very happy experience. Would like to visit again and again! All the best team Seasonal tastes! ❤️

It was a really great experience! Lots of variety of food - separate section for Bengali, North Indian, Continental and Asian items. It also offers one live grill counter, one Thai counter, one each for Chats and Wraps. Lots of options in desserts - beautifully looking confectionery (couldn't taste much) and Bengali sweets. Had a great time there. Fish items are too good, as is Thai food.
Sujoy De
Foods are awesome. I specially like the dessert section, which are uncomparable.... All the food items are delicious and tasty completely at par with the ambiance.....
Akash
Must Try! This place is amazing! The food is so flavorful and fresh, and the service is top-notch. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a delicious and memorable dining experience.
Sucheta Nandy
It is situated on the 10th Floor in The Westin. The sitting and decor is modern The ambience is nice. The staff is courteous and helpful. The buffet has got a large spread ranging from Asian, Western, Indian to Bengali. Live kitchen stations are also available like for grilled food, Asian cuisine, chaats and pasta. The food tastes good. The salad section was the best. The price is as it usually is in 5 star hotels.
Srijita Ghosh
Visited Seasonal Tastes a few days ago during the Kashmiri food festival. The specially curated menu was a celebration of the flavours of Kashmir. From decoration, food to music, the vibe was perfect for a luxury lunch. Kashmiri Cuisine is highly excuisite with distinct flavours which was rightly brought up in the menu. The famous Tujj kebab for starters, naans and rotis with the famous Kashmiri Aloo Dum everything was in the menu. The flavourful Mutton Pulao went perfectly well with various options from the main course like Mutton Danival Qurma, Mutton Rista, Chicken Badam Qurma and many more. Desserts has always been my favourite section in a buffet and they didn't disappoint. Along with some special kashmiri desserts there was an array of pastries, mousses and cakes. Although the buffet was a little on the pricier side, the food was worth it.
Tania ghosh
Food tastes good! Buffet spread is pretty good! Desserts were nice!! There’s usually a lot of bengali fish tandoor options !!

Great Ambiance. Located on 10th floor of 31st floored Westin. Buffet food is also very tasty. A great experience

Ordered home delivery directly with hotel from a menu link provided by them. <br/><br/>Here's the funny and time spoiling part. The menu they provided to me and what they followed were different. <br/><br/>There were combos in the menu given but not in their menu. <br/><br/>The pricing in the menu they followed were 33% to 50% higher. <br/><br/>RESULT: I didn't get the Noodles i expected. and I paid around 50% higher prices too. <br/><br/>I did inform them about the mishap at the time of final invoicing, but they did not budge and provided me their version of the menu. <br/><br/>After having them work on it and canceling cooking dinner at home, I still took the delivery and paid the higher amount. <br/><br/>Though the packaging was good, there was nothing to keep the food warm and I received it cold. Only thing I can say about food is that the quality was as expected. <br/><br/>If you are craving for a five star experience, kindly clarify on the menu and pricing when you order. <br/><br/>They did apologize later on, but my experience was spoilt. <br/>

Luxury 5 star restaurant . Awesome ambience and a huge variety of foods🥰❤ A must visit for all foodies.
Madhurima Ganguly
Known for uts awesome and one of the best buffet spread we visited this place during the durga pumas last year.amazing experience.each one of the dishes were amazingly cooked.Staffs were courteous and very helpful.buffet price was as par the experience.
Enakshi Sen
We ordered the fish and chips from here. Although the quantity of the fish and the wedges could have been a little bit more, the food tasted great. The tartare dip could’ve easily passed off as stale though.
Anjyanika
Really loved the taste, quality, place, ambience and stuff behaviour! Really good and lovely place to have food. Must visit this place once 💚
Ritu Saraf (Cheerandchew)
So it was one of my friend's wedding anniversary and their treat when i visited this particular restaurant at Westin. First of all it's got a beautiful Maa Durga structure on the wall which catches your eye. Second thing best about the hotel is their courteous staff who are always willing to help. Then when i reached Seasonal tastes I fell in love with the huge buffet spread that they had. Can you guess what, i got so lucky that it turned out to be World's Nutella day that particular day and this place had one of the most amazing desserts one could think of. I'm a huge fan of Mezze platter and the lavash, falafel, hummus everything was on point. What really surprised me is the north Indian dishes that they served, dal makhani is one of the best i had on this planet. You just can't miss it. Please don't! Else you will regret. One quick tip, if you going for live counters like pasta or noodles, make sure you stand there and give the instructions and also let them know the quantity as otherwise it might go waste as its too much for one person. Also, want to quickly mention the fruits that they serve, they are so fresh and yummy. Basically, everything was so good so maje sure you don't eat anything since morning and try out everything here. Overall visiting this place is a must not just for lovely ambience but ofcourse for the delicious food. I have never tried the breakfast spread here but will definitely do that too soon as heard even that's awesome.
The Hunger Table
Great reccommendations.Good food..<br/>Nice buffet and reasonable price
Richa Panjiyara
Been there three times. Twice for dinner, once for lunch. The food selection particularly the desserts is amazing. Polite and courteous staff. Great service as well<br/>
Avinash Kumar
Ordered food through Zomato from this renowned restaurant but what do I receive, a food that has been eaten by the rider In the time Coronavirus infection such unhygienic and tampered food packages are not acceptable The restaurant should use tamperproof packaging and Zomato should use less hungry riders who doesn’t eat food. Donno how the food tastes , you can ask the rider since he ate it off
Parna Ghatak
I have visited Seasonal taste to celebrate my Mother's b'day... And I was so amused with the ambience and its food quality ... I went there again for my Fiance's B'day... Both experience was great.. I have visited few 5* Hotel, but I was really with their menu and it's taste..<br/>But here items were different, you have huge option in continental section... Taste of every preparation was good and desserts are heavenly... All Westin Staff were so friendly and helpful.<br/><br/>
Tathagat
For a very long time , a 5 star in South kolkata was the best when you considered restaurants in 5 stars of the city...not anymore ! Westin has them beat and by a fair margin....it is a savior for foodies like us in the current situation who can't visit their favorite restaurants!<br/>The food is just awesome with the service( Mr. Shankar always takes good care of us) and packaging which u expect from a premium property.<br/>Keep up the good work guys
INDRASIS PAL
Even though it says I have availed the gold pass, it is incorrect. When we had gone in 2018 and showed them my gold pass, they had informed that I have no free passes as their tie up with Zomato is no longer applicable. The behaviour was very bad, as if me and my family had gone there for free lunch. Most of the time there was no one at the table to check on us. As if instructed that I had a gd pass . Later as a courtesy , the banquet manger came and offered my 2 yr old son , welcome drink, not even juice. It was so embarassing. I paid in full, but now I see that they have informed Zomato that I had taken 1000+ rs discount. They are a bunch of liars. Very unprofessional. Would request Zomato not to market this restaurant and get a bad name from their customers. I will never go back to the b...s...t place and I have ensured that word spreads amongst my friends group that no one goes to that restaurant. Even if they go , not to show Zomato gold passes as they will be treated like lepors.
Oishik Sarkar
I reached Westin at 2:45PM, only 15 minutes before the buffet ends. Obviously spending Rs.1500 per person at Seasonal Tastes to get access to the buffet only for 15 minutes makes no sense. To my surprise they still welcomed us very well.<br/><br/>I got a table and frankly asked them about the time I'm going to get for the buffet. At first they were bit confused, later on they came to me and said we'll extend the buffet for another half an hour for you. This premium service is what you expect from a 5 star place and they totally won it.<br/><br/>Ambiance is as premium as you expect from a 5 star property, actually I loved this place. Its so spacious, everything feels so premium and worthwhile for the amount you pay. But I'll recommend you to reach on time, specially for enjoying what they've put together for your brilliant experience.<br/><br/>You can have a look at the top of the building till 31st floor standing in center of the restaurant and that is the best attraction here according to me.<br/><br/>Buffet @ Rs.1450 (5/5)<br/>------------------------------------------<br/>Usually when I write review about any buffet restaurant, I mention all the dishes present in the buffet. But here I simply got tired, there were so many cuisines, so many dishes to explore and many live counters that I couldn't note them all.<br/><br/>Starters were fresh and simply brilliant in taste. The service was so good that they served many dishes from live counter on our table. Live counter dishes made by chefs in front felt just incredible. <br/><br/>Mains are where many premium restaurants compromise, but not at Seasonal Taste. There were more than 20 different kinds of breads available, rice from steamed butter rice to Biryani everything you can expect. Again multiple cuisines and multiple curries, mutton, fish, chicken every other main course tasted good. But obviously I couldn't taste all of them. <br/><br/>Dessert section, my god it was huge. From all the Indian sweets to every other fruit and mousse, you just can't try all of them in a single visit. Once you take something on your plate I bet you can't put it down, those were so damn tasty.<br/><br/>Pricing<br/>-------------<br/>Weekend Lunch at Westin costs Rs.1450. They add 18% of GST not 5% as its a luxury property, that makes the price Rs.1711 per head. If you're Dineout GP member then you get 1+1 at this price. Considering some newly opened basic restaurants in the city charging Rs.350-400 per dish, this one is steal of a deal.<br/><br/>Conclusion<br/>----------------------<br/>I've been to many 5 star buffets but Seasonal Tastes of Westin serves one of the best lavish buffet in Kolkata. Top notch ambiance and service, wonderful food quality in every cuisine. If you want best of best buffet then I'll highly recommend this place.<br/>
Sanjukta Saha
Great ambience. Great people. Great view. An amazing place to have a fine dining. Really enjoyed there and would love to visit this place again and again. The food was so mouth watering and delicious, I could see them in my dreams and was able to taste them continuously for so long. Worth its price.
Sanchari Biswas
Amazing. Loved it.
Shauryadeep Ray
A very beautiful place located on 10th floor of the Westin, Rajarhat. The buffet has a lavish spread including 3 veg starters and 3 non-veg starters, 3 live counters (Pasta, grilled meat, Noodles), has Indian, Continental, Japanese main course including breads and salad, soup. 25 types of dessert along with Pancakes and ice cream.<br/><br/>Highly recommended.<br/>Dinner buffet - 1650+ 18% tax.<br/>Went through Dineout gourmet passport (2+2) buffet.
Tutul Sarita Saha
We went for buffet dinner on women's day evening and got to see a lot of varity in dessert section. I loved the phuchka counter and the starters. Courteous services and beautiful decor with soothing music going on throughout. Overall nice ambience and great experience. The manager escorted and showed the counters and explained what kind of foods were serving
Pranoy - The Hangla Foodie
Now in our city there are so many five star buffets are available. Among them, it is quite difficult to choose any one. And if you are a north indian food lover like me, then this place is one of the best place. All the foods were excellent in taste. Starters were so good with lots of varity. Main course was so good as well. But the thing I did like most is their desert. It was huge in varity and excellent in taste. Desert is the best part of their buffet. Apart from that, Service was very nice. Ambience was as it should be if you go for a luxury lunch. Overall my experience was outstanding 🙂 most recommended place from my side 😊
Anuja Pal
Very good hospitality,in addition to having a wonderful spread. One can say that there’s too much food - you don’t know what to choose! The quality is also equally good and you get a great view from the tables near the glass windows. Smiling,courteous staff who were gracious and were on hand when needed. Thank you for the experience. Will definitely be coming back again.
Amita Roy
This is the review for the buffet at Seasonal Tastes in The Westin Kolkata. I have already previously reviewed the The Westin at Goregaon in Mumbai. Now checked their Kolkata counterpart. Well the buffet was priced the same as Mumbai. The buffet includes one Pasta and another Asian live counter. The dessert station is huge. This is certainly the best day buffet in entire Rajarhat. Of course will come again but with more time to explore.
Puja Chandra
This is my 2nd visit here. Earlier I visited for my birthday dinner on a weekday. This time it just blown my mind by their stuff behavior. That time some Spanish festival was going on, but I told a stuff that I wanted to taste their laal maas(mutton dish) which was not available that day. After some time they served the same and it was delicious. Now coming to my recent visit for Sunday brunch, this is something beyond expectations irrespective of food menu, taste, quality. It was quite full as Sunday, but the stuffs never failed to serve you well. All the food and dessert were awesome! Must visit.
Anindita
Buffet spread was amazing! Great variety🔥 My favourite was the fish fry.
Tanmay Paul
Tried their lunch buffet. Food was nice. Huge number of starters (including live stations) and main course (Indian and western both) are available. All item tasted good. Bt the fish items specially in the starters were very much delicious. Desserts were also nice. Bt the staffs are not friendly and the service is bad.
Soumen Deb
Good ambiance , and good staffs are good and very cooperative
Atrayee Paul
We were there to be part of the Andhra And Hyderabadi dishes.<br/>Andhra Spread- ◆Gosht Biriyani<br/>◆ Mirch Ka Salaan<br/>◆ Raita<br/>◆ Haleem<br/>Hyderabadi Spread- ◆ Tawa Macchi<br/>◆ Chicken 65<br/>◆ Subz-Badami-Tikka<br/>◆ Hyderabadi Biriyani<br/>◆ Tomato Pappu<br/>◆ Nalli Nihari<br/>◆ Mutton Mumsum Curry<br/>◆ Shahi Tukda<br/><br/>Every single dish was very much tasty. The meat in every dish was very soft and juicy. The quality and quantity was very much good. The Shahi Tukda was great in taste.
Somnath Chatterjee
Choice of comfort food added with decent and courteous staff. I started loving it immediately.
Sumit Gupta
I had the worst buffer experience and that too in a restaurant from such a reputed brand.<br/><br/>There were fully-grown mosquitos on multiple desserts and I was shocked and highly disappointed with the quality and hygiene of the food being served.It also made me feel uncomfortable and doubtful of the other food items that I consumed.<br/><br/>This was also reported to the staff present at the restaurant.
Raunaq Kapoor
The brand stands up to it's name. Absolutely in sync with global standards and internationally influenced cuisine. You have live counters to order for world cuisines and also a delectable spread for every taste.<br/>A must visit.
Rahul Bhowmick
Food was excellent though the options were limited.Service was good and staffs were courteous.
Rajarshi Das (gannets.on.a.foodhunt)
Absolutely loved the buffet spread (though limited). Excellent food quality and courteous and polite staff. Loved the pretty interiors. Definitely dropping by again.
Suvankar Das
Yesterday I went there for dinner buffet.A special buffet festival,consisting of mughlai cuisine and telengana-based cuisine is going on at Seasonal Tastes.The buffet costed rs. 2300 including gst.The ambience is classy.the staffs are courteous too.<br/><br/>But coming to the food,I am not satisfied truely.<br/>The veg kebabs were tasteless though the non-veg kebabs tasted good.The main course section has not much variety according to the price.The three types of biryani are okayish.The salad section also lacks variety and i could not find bacon as well as tuna in adequate quantity in the salads.Only the dessert section fully satisfied my taste buds.Each and every dessert was yummy.<br/><br/>At one position There left no succulent mutton piece except bones in the gravy and they filled it so late that i could not even taste the preparation.otherwise paneer do piyaza,Gobi curry,chicken gravy tasted good.<br/><br/>So in this price segment the buffet of JW Marriot would be a better option.It is my personal opinion.I want to give 3.5 as rating.But there is no option for that.
SUDIP PAHARI
A brunch full of happiness 😍<br/>•located at Rajarhat, opposite to EcoPark<br/>• One of the best buffet in town🌇<br/>• Wide varieties of buffet<br/>• Amazing ambiance 😀<br/>• Prompt Service ❤️
Snehasree Das
It was my first time at Westin and stakes were obviously quite high about this Multicuisine restaurant. Starting from the staffs who were extremely courteous and hospitality was amazing. Coming to the main course - it was delicious and desserts were delectable and variety was huge. Interiors were impressive as expected. Starters could have been more in terms of variety but overall a great experience to dine at Westin.
Avishek Neogi
Had been to Westin for the first time and hence tried to check out the multi cuisine restaurant. It is on the 10th floor, so one can have a great view of the surrounding from that height.<br/>Plenty of variety to choose from - bengali, chinese, sea food, salads, desserts, live counters having fishes ready to be fried.<br/>Staffs were equally helpful but I do not wanna mention that as that is something I have found in every 5 star hotel.<br/>Good place to visit.
Santanu Basak
The cuisines were very tasty. KUDOS to Chef Nandan for preparing such delicious food. Thank you. You should try the pasta specially in white sauce from the live station. Definitely worth every penny.
Bitan Datta
Pros<br/>1. The ambience is good. The plush indoors, glass facades facing the sprawling outskirts of Rajarhat, brightly lit setup makes you feel jubilant.<br/>2. Food, specially the dessert and the starters are good. I didn't like the main course that much.<br/>3. No annoying service charge. With tax(18% because it's a luxury hotel), the amount comes to 1650+18%= 1947. Cute figure. I think they did some back calculation.<br/>Cons<br/>1.The service is a bit laidback. They didn't refill water on their own, weren't clearing out the table, didn't provide any dessert spoon, redeemed two dineout vouchers instead of one albeit by mistake, etc.<br/>2. The cost is higher than ITC Royal Bengal or JW Marriott,and both have better buffet spread.
Oiendrila Kolay
The only thing I would say is abt the rice .. that was a bit not good in taste than the others else everything was just perfect ❣️
Avik Lal Mitra
One of the best & lavish buffet dinner counter in Kolkata!<br/>The live pasta counter is good . Their Mac & cheese with ham & bacon is simply mind blowing!<br/>The oriental live counter with seafood is superb!!<br/>Plenty of options for desserts & salad as well!<br/><br/>Totally worth the money!
Sutapa Ray Chaudhuri
A buffet which focuses on the quality and taste of the spread as much as the number of items. Had a great time there!
Mushfeq Rahim
Had breakfast and dinner buffets everyday for 3days and all of them was surprisingly mind blowing.. the Christmas special buffet was excellent.. Chef Vickie is a brilliant chef making everything on point.. Chef Rubai was the most talented female chef we ever met.. didn’t feel like going out of westin for any of the meals and we’re excited to see the varieties of every buffet.. they customised our meals according to our taste and requirements.. best breakfast buffet ever for indian and asian food!!
Banhisikha Kanjilal
The buffet spread was really good, especially the desert section.all the pastries tasted awesome.got discount on nearby coupon.mesmerising view of Newtown from glass window
Anindita Das
Went to celebrate our special day there on 14th of november and opted for their buffet lunch. The place is located at the 11th floor of the building and will obviously provide you a beautiful view while having the meal.<br/><br/>There were 5 starter. Fish fry, chicken in chilli ginger sauce, tandoori potato, one chicken kebab and malai paneer. Fish fries were less crispy,but tasted good. Kebabs was nice. Chicken in chilli ginger sauce was good but tandoori potato was a bit less spicy.<br/><br/>Then we went to the main course where they had many option but we tried their biriyani, homely mutton curry, tandoori ruti, chicken. There were fish, crab etc too in the list. Whatever we tasted was average in taste. The bread was exceptionally soft.<br/><br/>The dessert section was huge. It was containing many kind of flavours pastry, nolen gur er rosogolla,sondesh and 6 flavours of ice creams.<br/><br/>They had a good salad counter and live counter for chat,fuchka and waffle. They also gave us a complimentary green apple drinks which was average on taste.<br/><br/>Expected something exceptional as they are containing a big name but was not satisfied enough to pay approx rs.2800/-. For two of us.<br/><br/>Sayantab Ghosh
Prasenjit Saha
This is not the exact review for this restaurant. We had a team event last Monday where we had buffet organized in a beautiful open area. Ambience and all other thing was very good except food.<br/>There was very less option in buffet which might be as per contract but whatever served should be as per westin quality.<br/>Let me point out most pathetic dishes in the menu. Very simple Tandoori Roti was just like papad. It was very hard and crispy and also burnt. All the rotis were same. I don’t know how that chef can cook in 5 star. People selling roti in thella prepare better than that. <br/>There wad gajar halwa, believe I never had halwa as bad as this. Taste like corrots boiled in water and sugar and served. Even there was no dry fruits in the halwa. Can you imagine halwa without dry fruits. Pathetic chefs.
Ankita Mondal
Enjoy the expansive view of Rajarhat Newtown from the tenth floor of this restaurant in Kolkata.Being a Marriott chain hotel , Seasonal Tastes, offers an interactive dining experience.<br/>The cuisines that you get here are North Indian,Bengali Italian,chinese and Continental.The savory and an exclusive menu will unleash the born appetite in you. The total number of dishes was counted around hundred so it was neither possible nor a wise idea to try each and everything out. Starting with the salad section , it was just stupendous. I personally grew affinity towards the live counter as I ovserved chefs transform local and raw ingredients into tantalizing Indian n international dishes.<br/>The dessert section comprised of as many as forty different varities. From pastries to mousse, from gulab jamun to rabdi , it had all . A special mention to the chaat and paan counter which was icing on the cake.
Naila25alam
The food is too good with a decent ambience. But the hospitality is terrible. They spoilt my mood as soon as I stepped in. Horrible management. Will never go there again.
Sankha Bisoi
The ambience was good and hospitality was at its best.Given the price,the spread was good enough, nothing more, nothing less.They have starters section,salad section, continental main course section,Indian main course section,live noodles,pasta and chaat counters and a dessert counter.The quality and taste of the food was great.The dessert section is something worth mentioning,for three reasons,number of items, presentation and taste.It was top notch.The view from the 10th floor was amazing.I would love to revisit the place anyday.
Dwaipayan Brahma
Went to this place for diner with family during /after Durga puja. This place had some really good buffet options in the given price range. One will get lost in the menus options. Staffs were really helpful. We went during late evening so couldn’t enjoy the view as much but I’m sure its good. <br/>The deserts options was huge from Bengali to everything.<br/>A truly 5* experience. 👍🏼

It was the second time when I visited them and they didn't disappoint me with their unhygienic desserts. They always serve their desserts with a live-fly on it as a topping. Customer service has been degraded a lot. They didn't bother to ask for the water at the beginning neither for the mocktails which were included in our buffet. After asking them twice and a waiting time of 30 mins we received the water. We were a team of 12 people visited yesterday for a team dinner and off course for a big team the live & tangra counters will receive a big order. But from the looks of the service lady, it seems like we should not ask for 12 grill fish or chicken at once. We should ask for two pieces of fish only and share it. And to my surprise, they gave only 4 pieces of fish to us. Same with the chicken and prawns. They also didn't bother to fill up the empty dished. After asking them multiple time we got the crispy fish and chicken skewers. Fried rice and ras malai were also empty for more than 30 mins. In the cold section, the chicken was stinking and no one of us was able to eat it. Also, we asked for some cold water and don't ask me what happened, just imagine on your own. Mocktail which we received yesterday was sprite with some red color in it in a small glass, but last time we had watermelon and strawberry mocktail on a big glass. Their service is similar to any other 2-3 star restaurants. Don't expect any special treatment from them.<br/><br/>I would have given them a negative rating, but the two stars were for the ambiance. Not expected from Marriott to serve unhygienic food with consistency.

I was looking for a visit to this place for a while. Finally during this Puja I bumped into the eleventh floor of Westin Hotel, New Town where a lavish spread of miscellaneous cuisines was awaiting for us.<br/>I was amazed to find the beautiful decor of the restaurant but that is something quite expected at such an elite place. What was least expected the absence of bustling crowd during our greatest festival. So everything went pretty smoothly.<br/>Coming to the foods, there were five different counters with variety of Indian, Asian and Continental delicacies. The quintessential Bengali staples were also being served in the wake of Durga Puja. The total number of dishes counted around hundred so it was neither possible nor a wise idea to try each and every item. All foods were served hot and savor was felt in every bite. I personally grew an affinity for the live grill counter for the fantastic fish grills. The experience was filling and full of excitement. Post main course we took a diversion towards dessert section and once again it was a time to wonder. As many as fifty different desserts having multiple origin lured us to the world of sweetness.<br/>The service had nothing to complain about and the pocket pinch was befitting to the wonderful experience. There is valet parking and full bar is also available.<br/>A must visit place for all the epicureans.

This was the most anticipated restaurant ever!!! Not only because it was our first visit to a 5 star restaurant together but it was on the occasion of my sister's 20th birthday...the hotel is just opposite eco park... The buffet was reasonably priced considering the venue and the spread ...the ambience was amazing the panoramic view of the city was an added bonus...the waiters were quite friendly and helpful although the person at the entrance goofed up about our booking.<br/><br/>Now regarding the food, the spread was really huge. In the starter they have fish ,chicken and mutton. For us the best was fish tikka . They also has live grill counter(Sunday brunch special), with the options of chicken, 4-5 types of fish , prawns and beef. We ordered prawns and chicken. The chicken was a bit overgrilled, but the prawns were cooked well. In the roast section they have roasted chicken and pork belly, both being a bit rare. The live Chinese counter, Indian main course and the salad section was just superhit , with huge variety of items.<br/><br/>Now most importantly the desert section- almost 50+ items. Each and every item was made to perfection. But the dessert section really lacks variety, there were more than 10 types of cake , pastry ,etc. It was quite surprising that they dont have macarons , live pancake counter, sorbet in their dessert section.<br/><br/>Overall the spread was very good, worth a second time visit.<br/><br/>

This was definitely worst experience so far!<br/>This is a high end restaurant located in the Westin Rajarhat. The quality of food is really not worth wasting Ur money.

One of the best
Somabrata
Seasonal taste : the name worth it. It contains from Bengali Shukto, fried fish to hummas. Tastewise very good. It even has a counter for Bengali luchi kosha mangsho. In dessert section there is a big range of sweet variations. I loved the buffet.<br/>Crowd is very good, the place is so huge you won't feel the gathering. Also the stuff is very courteous.<br/>Loved it<br/><br/>
Aritra Hazra
We went there for team lunch. The buffet was good. Few of the dishes really stood out. However,<br/>we were expecting a lot more options like king prawns , oysters , squid. Also in desert section we were expecting Macaroon. We expected a more diverse spread from a 5 star bufffet. The ambience is just perfect and the staffs were really helpful.
Anjita Paul
Very nice place located at the 10th floor of Westin. Food quality is very good. Loved the starters even the veg ones. I think in the main course biryani could have been better in taste though there were many options and the kosha mangsho was very good even the chicken lababdar tasted great. Loved the desserts too but the ice cream was completely frozen and we could not have it - i think that needs to be improved. There were many options in the salads counter as well, the chaat and the pasta counter was very interesting too. Ambience is very good. The staff behaviour is very good. MUST VISIT to this great buffet at an affordable price.

If you are looking for service in a restaurant and bar then this is your gig. Kunal is the Bar manager and well I must say he knows the poison of your taste. Must visit if in Kolkata
Payel Ghosh
It was quite a nice experience.. Food was delicious too. We opted for ala cart menu and the ceaser salad and lamb biryani were my personal favorites.

"After a good dinner one can forgive anybody, even one's own relatives."<br/><br/>Yupp. That's how it was. A good dinner. A restro of a location like the Westin. And that also...in the night of Mahanabami.<br/><br/>Impressive experience !<br/><br/>Won't say much. Right from the entry to the enclave to the entry to the restro till to the exit.<br/>Charming !<br/><br/>The welcoming.....arrangements.....the appealing live counters.....the food varieties starting from bengali to continental to oriental including seafoods and fruits and biriyani and even luchi (and a massive variety of desserts including numerous bengali sweets)........the preparations and presentations.....staff courtesy and cooperation.......the whole setup...<br/><br/>It was all lavish and graceful !<br/><br/>Altogether...a satisfactory dinner during the occasion of the biggest festival at somewhere like this................ Delightful and sublime !
Vidisha Khandelwal
Went for Sunday brunch buffet with family during the Dineout food festival. The ambience was good with live music, however because of the huge high ceiling and live counter around the temperature was too hot. They offered options..including Thai, chaats, Tibetan & Indian food. Keeping in mind it's a 5 star property's restaurant we expected much better buffet. The taste was average and so was the available options. The only good part of the meal was the dessert spread which was quite tempting.<br/><br/>Personal favourite: The dessert spread
Geetanjali
So yesterday on the nabami night after 36 hours duty I chose Seasonal Tastes to be my escape with my bae. The very first disappointment was the table issue. Although we had booked almost 15 days beforehand and the restaurant had confirmed with me on panchami the restaurant denied any bookings when we finally reached.<br/>We were given a table and we kept waiting for around 15-20mins and no one came to attend us and present us the available packages till we finally called them up.<br/>So we went for buffet. Now the impressive part began. The spread was huge and of course very beautiful. Spacious food arena looked stunning and had food to feed every taste bud. There were many live counter actually too many. But personally I liked the spread more than the live counters which were too busy and had to be reminded twice to get it served at the table. We had ordered papri chat which never reached us despite reminders. Kathi roll and apple jalebi were mouth watering. Chicken biriyani and kasha mangsho were mouth watering..veg augratin noodles and coconut rice tasted good. So did all the desserts. Staff were a bit cold and never took the order merrily at the live counters and every time we reminded them they showed they were irritated..<br/>An average experience won't visit again
Soumanjan Bose
Went there yesterday only with a group of 10 peoples and 4 kids. Did reservation for 14 seats in the evening, but after reaching the outlet, all the floor people seems to be unknown of this reservation and hence was not sure, where to place us. Anyhow, they accomodated and joined few tables and told us that they can provide 12 seats only and we have to accomodate on the same.<br/>On commencing the dinner, it was informed to us that nothing gets served in the table, not even the starters of the buffet. The service guy was very reluctant to serve the water also. Subham was too arrogant and didnt even bother to come for clearence after repeated calling. He was asking us to pass on the plates to him for clearence, i mean is this hospitality. We enquired for the welcome drink and then only it came, that too after completion of starters.<br/>The food quality was pathetic and girls in the service section was rude and arrogant. No seniors came for any kind of feedback and suggestions.<br/>Come on guys, it this hospitality of a so call star hotel of Kolkata. You people just ruined our evening like anything. Its really disappointing for all of us. You have lot to learn from the city.

During my stay @Westin, I got a chance to visit this place for breakfast, and I was astounded by the sheer grandeur of the place. As soon as I entered, I was welcomed by the courteous staff and was giving a walkthrough of the menus being served. There was quite a spread of delicious food with so much options and varieties to choose from. The sweet aroma around the masala tea counter was enriching. With such magnificent views over the large windows makes it a perfect place for a romantic setting.

I had gone here for a buffet dinner with my family during their Parsee food festival. The hotel itself is easy to locate and you are greeted warmly at the entrance. One has to take a lift upto the restaurant. Once in, you are greeted by a friendly staff who seats you at the table and then you can enjoy their lavish buffet. There is a wide variety of food you can choose from and one can't realistically name them all. You have some live cooking stations too where one can place the order to be delivered to your table. As it was the Parsi food festival, we opted for the bheja fry which was being cooked by a lovely lady who catered to our palate. It was nicely made. There are salads, appetizers, mains and desserts. They also had a cheese bar. There was a Chinese live cooking station too. Overall the food is nice but not excellent. There is a lot of variety though and the service is top notch. Ambience is very pleasing and the decor is tastefully done.

We went on Monday 30th September for a team Lunch Seasonal tastes The Westin and liked the place, the ambience, the view from the glass windows covering a vast expanse as well. the food was good, a mutton kebab among the starters was the best item I had there. The bakery items were good, though the butter is kept in odd shaped short bottle-like jars very awkward to use, with a knife. <br/> <br/>Amongst the items nearly all of us tried were Luchi and Mutton Kosha, and the Luchi was a disaster to say the least, they simply don't have people who know how to make the dough, how to roll it or how to fry it either. that apart, all the items I tasted were good, particularly, the dessert portion. <br/> <br/>The staff was good, one area where they can improve is by guiding the guests with the menu a little bit. There was once gentleman in suit and tie as usual, apparently a new joinee who was trying to be helpful, though he didn't know a damn thing about the hotel, not even where the Wash Room is located !!!    :) :) : )
Sandeep Sinha
Came here for breakfast buffet and it has excellent spread with tons of healthy options. Staff is very warm and service is overall excellent not just with this restaurant but all other restaurant in the hotel. They have a lot of live counters and also very open for customizations. Chef Rupai went above and beyond to cater our needs. Must visit in Kolkata.
Madhuparna Dasgupta
I went for a dinner buffet and I was amazed to see their chat section. It had puchka, jhalmuri, and a lot more. Again they have some great desert section.
Shampa Dighal
Food is quite good,wide spread.Ambience excellent.Service not upto the mark compared with other restaurants in it's category.<br/>Overall had a good lunch.
Crazy Street Bites
The place was awesome for a buffet. it had a wholesome variety of food stuff be it seafood or chicken or vegetarian. The place looks quite exquisite. The live counters on getting orders provide them to your table. The place looks quite grand with adequate seating arrangement👍
Subhojit Saha
I loved the food here. A large spread with a large variety of foods and cuisines. The staff is very helpful and courteous. Fresh hot meals prepared for you with care and diligence. Will come back for more.

Westin lunch buffet....Heard so much about it that atlast I went there last week....Had lots of high expectation from this place as it's a high price buffet from a well known 5 star hotel...<br/>But sadly it didn't fulfil my expectation 😐<br/><br/>1stly the food was not that up to the mark... Specially the main course was not tasted well...Mostly they was salty or lack of tastes...<br/><br/>Though I liked the pasta, papri chat... Also love the dessert section.... And mostly ate those...As I couldn't eat the main course...<br/><br/>Also the Lamb stew was great in taste...<br/><br/>The behavior of some staff was very bad...Before even closing time few of them was asking to the chef of live counter to keep aside their food and that's also in front of the guest (me 🙈) and when 1 of the guest asked for the noodle, she said, "it's not available anymore"🤔... Now I really don't know if it's normal in a 5 star hotel!! 🤷<br/><br/>Also the mutton was almost end though the time was 2:45!!! Only few smallest of the pieces was there...The mutton wasn't soft and again that was salty and lack of taste...<br/><br/>Anyways I had far better meal and desert from other places... And that also in much low price.... So if they don't come with good tasty food and variety in the main course menu I won't visit again...<br/><br/>So for me 1 time visit is ok but not more than that.. 🙂
Gourab Saha
This was my second visit here.Last one was around 1.5years ago.I have to say the buffet almost stayed the same yet the price has increased a bit.The amount of items are quite less compared to other fivestar buffets.The items were although quite good.They had the bengali special,Luchi,Aloo Dum & Mangsho Kosha.I hate also every non-veg starters.I have zero complaints about those.I would love if they could add some more options in the maincourse.Now,speaking of the desserts,I feel that the desserts were quite average.Yeah,they are looking quite good in the picture but is quite average in taste.The Indian desserts were better than the westerns.Also the mocktail,I ordered was good.It’s called ‘Bery-very’.You can get 2+2 on drinks here.Happy Dining. :)<br/>
Arupendra Ghosh
Very friendly and polite sercice accompanied by great food.<br/>Worth every penny of it.
Babu Roy
I loved this place. I was here in the hotel for a night and had asked where to go for breakfast. I was told 10th floor. Wasn't sure what to expect.<br/>On the 10th floor, I was asked my room number and taken to a table with a great outdoor view.<br/>Coming to the food, there was a lot of variety to choose from. The juices were great - I loved the carrot turmeric juice. And then I came across the egg Benedict. Except this was a bit different. Kosha Mangsho Benedict. This was different and good. And I was recommended a platter of luchi. With cholar dal , potato and a slice of fried eggplant.<br/>Loved the food, loved the service, loved the staff.<br/>Hope I can make it back and try some more.
Sharngorab Das
After all its the upscale hotel chain owned by MARRIOT INTERNATIONAL..so their services,hospitality echoes the rich legacy of the parent hotel. From the beginning of check in to check out they left positive marks and vibes that i would visit this deluxe property once again.<br/>Located at the prime location of New town,few yards away from Zone ,The Park nd Eco Park,this 5 star deluxe property stands the two high rise building of THE WESTIN. I went there for dinner with my gf a week back. We were cordially welcomed by the staffs and were led to the restaurant.<br/>The menu consisted of starters,breads,soups,salads,grilled items,chicken,mutton,fishes paneer.<br/><br/>The main course had steamed rice,chicken butter tikka masala,chicken nd mutton biriyani,pulao,amritsari fish.<br/><br/>Live counter section had tiger prawn,jumbo prawn,fish..<br/><br/>Cut fruits<br/><br/>Dessert section contained variety of cakes,mouses,pastries,rasgulla,gulab jamun,mitha dahi..<br/><br/>Nothing to mention about the taste bcs each of them were just beyond anythng.<br/><br/>Its better to visit nd take a tour through the restaurant SEASONAL TASTE..<br/><br/>GUYS U ROCK..!!
Rajib Mukherjee
One of the best breakfast buffet spread in the city. Amazing friendly staff and chefs were present to suggest us for excellent experience. Luckily we been their on weekday so there wasn't so rush in the restaurant. All the major breakfast options are available. Special mention to the Masala tea counter.
Suchismita Bhattacharya
Went to Seasonal Tastes for my birthday lunch today, with my parents, and it was such a wholesome experience! The food is perfect, and the dessert section is Paradise for any sweet tooth. Wonderful spread of salads, more than sufficient variety of veg and non-veg items. The Biryani in the main course was another piece of perfection! The Chef found me clicking around photos with my camera, and suggested I should also visit on a Sunday to get their very best of dishes. Such genuine hospitality and friendly atmosphere, a breathtaking view from the 10th floor, it was a wonderful afternoon spent!
Apala Chowdhury
I went for the lunch buffet here. This place definitely had a wide buffet spreads which tasted equally good. The ambience and the window view definitely added to the pleasure of visiting there. Warm and courteous staffs were other add ons.
Himadri Mondal
This is one hell of a buffet! Nothing sort of a spectacle.<br/>The service was more than I expected.promt service to quick live grill section.<br/>Now about the food ,<br/>They will give you welcome drink.<br/>Then the starter consists 3 veg ,3 non veg and a live grill section ,eat as much prawns as you want.<br/>In the main course ,they have Indian and continental and God knows what else, there are so many items I am pretty sure one won't be able try each item.<br/>From glass noodles to grilled fish to biryani to mutton kosha to fish curry and so on.<br/>The cold cut section consists oyster, ham, salami ,squid.<br/>Now the stand out performer is surely the dessert section.<br/>Dahi vada to 4 types of tart ,roshogolla, pastry , cakes.
Gautam Dey
If you’re going with Dineout voucher then it’s kolkata’s one of the best buffet...I’m too impressed with their starters and deserts...main courses are also worthy.<br/>

The food is amazing from start to the end of desserts. Live kitchen Station provided wonderful range of food.Extremely humble chef was making it possible to taste a lot of variety. A must visit if your pocket allows.
Raghav Jhunjhunwala
Seasonal tastes, undoubtedly, comes into mind when we think of huge buffet spread with delicious food.<br/><br/>Exactly, in the 10th floor of The Westin, Kolkata, this place doesn't only showcases it's luxurious and lavish interiors, with capsule lifts on both sides moving up and down, rather it's spacious and provides charming beauty of city.<br/><br/>The place is very alluring as the buffet spread area is huge and well curated.<br/><br/>Ranging from Live Chaat counter offering puchka, jhal muri, papdi chaat, dahi puchka - (very scrumptious by all means) ; to Live Pasta Counter - (which was too heavenly and we ate it with lip smacking enjoyment) to Live Sauted Vegetables Counters (Chinese) - ( very lipcious), the Live Counters were too good.<br/><br/>Separate sections offering both continent and chinese food had combination of yummy and delicious items. Breads and soups were fabulous.<br/><br/>Salad section with different types of cheese and salad was worth a try.<br/><br/>Kebabs are too die for !!! Absolutely loved the kebabs.<br/><br/>North Indian segment was vast with various main course and papad items. Breads were served at table as and when ordered.<br/><br/>Main attraction of this place is their desserts section. It's completely divine here. From pastries to mousse, cakes to candies, gulab jamun to date puddings and much more, the offerings were too much and place for them was too low in stomach. We tried to taste some of them.<br/><br/>Six flavour of ice cream was there which were yummy.<br/><br/>Welcome drink was provided once we were settled in our seats.<br/><br/>Hospitality was at its best. Service was fast and prompt. The servers did provide us food, we wanted in our table. Had a good time here !!!<br/><br/>
Pranav Bhambi
The view from the table and ambience is 😍.<br/>Chat section was my fav. 😎<br/>Please provide a welcome drink. 😜<br/><br/>Ambience:- 5/5<br/>Food:- 4/5<br/>Staff courteous:- 5/5<br/>Pinch to the pocket:- 3/5<br/><br/>Overall:- 3.5/5<br/><br/>( I had a lunch buffet. Highlights of the buffet:- Live Pasta counter, Chat counter and Desserts.)<br/><br/>P.s :- Don't miss the desserts. They also have indian sweets as desserts.😜
Piyush Jain
Good restaurant for a date and for family. Quality of the food is also good. Service person was quite awesome and they helped us whenever we wanted any help
Vineet Harbhajanka
Pros<br/>- Management/Staff are proactive and repeatedly came to me to solve issues we had<br/>- Dessert Chef deserves special praise<br/>- Great ambience<br/>- Good variety in the spread<br/><br/>Cons<br/>- Food was mostly cold even after repeated requests. Their Chef tried to explain why food on the buffet is bound to be cold. I am unclear what was the point of that, serving hot food is not a unique problem and all hotels are able to do it successfully.<br/>- Staff seems untrained. Our nearby voucher validation was completed before we seated but still 4 people came up to us for verification.<br/>- Staff was unable to find our booking made on Zomato. They claimed ALL tables were booked yet they were able to oblige & accommodate us.<br/><br/>With a little additional staff training, Westin can be a great place to visit in the city.
Puja Karmakar
Firstly i had to mention this that the ambience was just awesomeee.. i really liked the way this place was maintained.. just awesm.. coming to food, i dont know wat to say about the food its was ok for me.. i liked their dessert items and all the live counters over there.. the location was prompt just opposite to eco park.. all over its a good experience.
Utsho Palchaudhuri
Located at the 10 th floor seasonal taste is definitely one of the best buffets in town.<br/>With over 4 live counters seasonal taste offers a late of variety.<br/>They have pao bhaji, phuchka,pasta, noodles and Mexican Street food live counters.<br/><br/>The salad bar too is very diverse starting from different types of cheese and salamis.<br/>The kebabs and the prawns were tasty.<br/>3 soups to fulfill your needs.<br/>Different types of breads, rice and biriyanis accompanied with their respective gravy pairs will make you go gaga.<br/>Finally the desert section is never ending with cakes and pantries that will definitely steal your heart.<br/>You will never be able to finish all of them.<br/>Seasonal tastes is a must try.
Sushabhan Das
Well i have no words to describe how good this place is.... We opted here for lunch buffet which wz amazing overall.... Coming to starters they have a wide variety wid gr8 food quality and taste... The main course items specially the chicken biriyani wz scrumptious ... Coming to the dessert section one can't miss any of those dishes specially the baked rasgulla and malpoa... The dessert section wz way too good and i must say dat a foodie should never miss dis place.... Coming to the ambience it wz heavenly wen compared to any other 5 star dining cuz itz located on the 10th floor of Westin which gives u a nice view from top....Overall i can say itz one of those best places in the city to dine
Sourav Sharma
Starter-4star<br/>Veg-4star<br/>Desert-5star<br/>But the non veg section was totally disaster.In the Mutton bhuna there was nothing but bones of mutton and i can not still imagine what kind of Biriyani it was.Left few most of the staffs were inefficient but the manager was very good.When the food became empty they took long time to fulfil it.By the way anyone can not expect such a poor service from a five star restaurant.
Shawn Bhattacharjee
Seasonal taste kolkata is one of my most favourite buffet in town it serves all kind of and it was the best from all aspects.<br/><br/>The starters were awesome items in main course were many.<br/>And the most interesting fact is that there were around 22 desserts.
Mousumi De
We came to this place in a sultry August eve in search of a place to try good drinks.The basil mojito was pretty good..We ordered two more..A frostbite and a berry berry which were equally refreshing.<br/>The only tip if any is the addition some more options on the appetizer menu,to go with the customized drinks.
Pradip Pramanick
Really good buffet, lots of cuisines and mouth watering dishes. Decorations are well thought. I met the ATK team there while they were having a team lunch 😊
Payel Biswas
Visited the place with lots of expectations a day before my birthday but was highly disappointed not because of the food but the ambience , hospitality and disorganised buffet. The taste and quality of food is good. Dessert section has the most variety. We had a table booked a week prior to our visit but had to wait for a staff to attend and guide us. None of the staff attended us while we were having our lunch, instead I had to personally go the staffs and ask for service. The buffet section is disorganised and food is placed at random places. Also it looked that they had space crunch. Not expected this type of service from a 5 star. Will not visit again.
Tulasi
The taste and quality is ok not that great. We should visit this resturant without much expectation. Though the corporate discount is given, half of the discounted price goes for taxation.
Piyas Roy
'Seasonal Tastes' is located in 'The Westin' Hotel - JW Marriott Group,opposite of Eco Park,New town.We have visited here last year durga puja time with my wife & friends for their buffet dinner.They offers lots of items for their buffet item.They also have live counter.In starter they have north indian,chinese,mughlai,south indian,bengali items.In main course they have Biryani,Chicken,mutton & fish items,Chinese live counter,bengali items.In dessert section they have lots of variety.Love this buffet.
Kaveri
The has so far been the best buffet experience for me and my family. We had booked buffet from dineout during GIRF, so it cost us around Rs 920 per head. We were a bit before time, and the staff was very welcoming, especially the one who was assigned to our table (I forgot to ask his name). He had himself offered to click a family picture for us when he saw us struggling with selfies, took the plates as soon as the food finished in order to ensure there was space to bring in more food, and to point out, not even once was our glasses empty. He refilled the water as soon as it was half empty. Also to mention, there was a lot of crowd and ours wasn't the only table he had to take care of. He even offered to bring food for us from the live counters. If possible, I would really like to appreciate him in person.<br/><br/>Coming to the environment and food, it was just amazing! There wasn't even a single dish which i didn't like, and I almost tasted everything! The area was huge and we didn't have to wait in queue for any food. Even with a lot of crowd, there was ample space to move around. Songs (and that too good ones!) were continuously playing, something with i really like. The desserts was especially something i loved. There were 6 flavour of ice creams, two big cakes, and many more! Including 6-8 sweets, two tarts, and many cupcakes.<br/><br/>My suggestion to anyone who visits this place, and who is a sweet tooth like me, would be to preserve atleast half of your appetite for the desserts section.<br/><br/>Also, we were told from dineout that there is no lunch buffet available on Sundays. We had booked a table but it had to be cancelled, though the money was refunded. But again, the manager (i think someone named Abdulla) said in Sunday brunch buffet the dishes in the menu are almost double. So it would be great if somebody could clear this doubt.
Kanya Ghosh
One of the Best buffet in Town. <br/>I loved their live grill section. <br/>Also their Chinese live section is amazing. I loved stir fried prawns and Chicken Nd Prawn Noodles. Prawns were very fresh and tender. Noodles seemed to be freshly made aswell as thail noodles were smooth as silk. <br/>Also the continental section of the buffet is nice. <br/>Dessert section can be made better.
Amitava Sarkar
Huge quantity of food spread but no quality. In cold cuts u will find very basic stuff like a 3 star hotel. Live noodle bar was there but tasteless. Using wok but no smoky flavour!! Biriyani and mutton was somewhat good but ppl don't vist upscale restaurants to eat biriyani. Desert was okayish.we asked for grilled prawn from live counter.. We were sererved with 2 pieces only!!!! Stuff was good and helpful but I did not liked the food. Probably my first and last visit. Westin has opened a Japanese rest called NORI. now I am hesitating to visit that too!!
Ishita Ghosh
Planning a Sunday brunch this place is worth a shot.<br/>The range of appetizers was interesting included seafood, pita bread with types of hummus, Indian chats, salads etc. The entree had continental cuisine along with live counters for barbeque, panfry and grills. Unfortunately there wasn't a list of items which was being served, as this caused commotion among the customers and the servers. We were expecting seafood items like crab, lobster and meats like bacon, ham ; none of these were available for the entree items.Main course had varied cusines ranging from Japanese to Indian which had the chef's twist .The most amazing part was the array of desserts, there were around 40 which I could count of.<br/><br/>The hospitality of the staff was a mixed experience. Some of them were very helpful and professional but few were confused of their job which was really surprising to witness as this hotel falls under 5 star category. Ambience is classy and you would be lucky to have a seat along the glass facade as you cannot miss the view of Newtown from here.
Pritha Parida
A perfect 5 star hotel with lovely ambience. The attendant greeted us in a very royal manner. Great place, lovely music, perfect buffet.<br/><br/>Pros<br/>1. Perfect Ambience<br/>2. Perfect place for buffet<br/>3. You will get all flavours of food<br/>4. Starting from Indian to Italian<br/>5. Fancy pastries and sweets<br/><br/>Cons<br/>1. Can be little pricy if you don't have any Zomato offer<br/>2. Other than this no cons.
Kaustav Das
Been here today i.e. 07-aug-2918 for team lunch.<br/><br/>1. Fantastic ambience.. Great location & view.<br/>2. Great hospitality<br/>3. Clean washroom<br/>4. The seasonal buffet had a duscounted price - the variety of dishes in the menu was commendable. Taste wise the food was satisfactory - but there is scope of improvement as well.<br/><br/>Overall satisfied.
Ayan Dutta
They have no idea that Dine out is selling their buffet coupons at 50 percent discount. I called and they say that they have no idea. Deluding people is not a way to do business. If Dine out is selling your coupons, you need to know and guide any person who calls regarding that.<br/><br/>Now past is past, we atlast went there on their confirmation and it was worth it. The buffet had a delicious spread of kebabs, grilled chicken wings, citrous fish, prawn , hariyali paneer with stuffed potato was just too good among them. There were 5 starters which made my day, as I have always missed starters in Five star restaurants.<br/><br/>There were chicken and pork salamies together with papri chaat and phuchka as live counters.<br/><br/>The main course consisted of Bengali cuisines like fish and chicken along with various dal and palads. I also found veg curries which also tasted good. A very good Indian section followed with Biryani and Pulao. The mutton was very tasty. Chinese Chicken preparation was better than the Indian one though. You will love the pork in the Chinese section also if you are interested.<br/><br/>Deserts were many apart from rosogolla, rosomalai, mishti doi, badam halwa, malai chop, sandesh, malpoa among bengali sweets. Malpoa was too tasty. There were red velvet cake, mango cake and also other pastries, brownies. The tart was very nicely prepared. Mousse was there but I didn't taste. Fresh fruits like pineapple and ripe papaya.<br/><br/>Overall it surpassed my previous best. The staffs were well behaved and very cordial and helpful. The ambience and the cleanliness was too good which fulfills the 5 star rating. See the photos attached.

I was at this restaurant a few days back. The space is good. However, the food quality was not up to the mark. Mutton was undercooked. Biryani was bad. Desserts were monotonous and not worthy of a 5-star property. The quantity was extremely less at every counter and they were making us wait for a long time. So, we got delayed right since we ate the starters. Hospitality, hygiene and cleanliness were also poor. I am not recommending this restaurant.

One of the best buffet in town<br/>All the food items were excellent.<br/>Everyone please come to this place and have a visit its just flawless.<br/>From starters to desserts.

A few days ago, I was at Seasonal Tastes with my family for buffet lunch. Here's my honest review:<br/><br/>1. Ambience: The space was good but the ambience wasn't good enough for me. The vibes of a fine dining restaurant was missing.<br/><br/>2. Staff: The staff was one of the worst I've come across in a while. They were simply ignorant of our presence and was rude as well.<br/><br/>3. Hygiene: The restaurant was forcing us to eat with used cutlery. The plates were stained. New and fresh cutlery was not provided. The floor was not being cleaned when someone was accidentally dropping the food. It was quite unhygienic.<br/><br/>4. Food: I could have forgiven their bad etiquette had the food been good. To my utter shock, I was completely dissatisfied. All the items were cold even though almost all were live counters. The quantity was insufficient. The quality of fish, mutton, desserts, etc. was pathetic. Some were even rotten. In terms of taste, street food would probably overtake them. It was quite disheartening.<br/><br/>As far as recommendation is concerned, the services was nowhere close to the 5-star level. I feel they need to improve a lot. I am not recommending Seasonal Tastes.<br/><br/>Overall Rating: 1/5

Keep coming back here every chance I get.<br/>Great variety of food, without compromising on the quality! The live counters have great seafood stir-fry, the dessert section is huge! The vegetarians also have a number of options!

One of the 5 star properties to check out in Kolkata, Newtown area. Tried there buffet spread. It was an office party with colleagues. It was a good experience. Staff were good. Buffet spread had variety of options. But some of the items were a bit disappointment if thout of the hotel standard. Deserts were really nice. Specifically some of the Bengali sweets were really awesome.
Rahul Dev Banik
Nice Ambience and the banquet hall is well decorated. Food is really good. We tried the veg section which was really amazing. On my next visit sure gonna try Non-Veg. Desserts here has varities with great taste.
Pooja Roy
Went to seasonal tastes on our engagement anniversary. We opted for dinner buffet. <br/>Great food and ambience. Would definitely look forward to visit again.
Sayan Saha
Impolite staff. Grotesque Food. They served bad food and they accepted doing so and didn't even apologize. While paying cash they said they don't have change. Being a star rated hotel and can't provide basic services.
Shreya Dutta - StarWords India
When we visit a 5 star property, there are certain expectations. Westin Kolkata was also on my wishlist after reading the wonderful reviews. However, the kind of experience I had is forcing me to give them a poor rating. Being a food influencer, I visit plenty of restaurants and, hence, I am trying to point out the improvements they need to immediately implement.<br/><br/>1. We had booked via Zomato. When I fortunately called up the restaurant to confirm, they denied the existence of any such booking. 😲 So, I had to book once again telling them it is my mother's birthday and we would require a complimentary cake. 😊 They had asked me to request for a message which I mentioned. However, on 18 July, on the day of our visit for lunch, this message had astonishingly vanished. 😂 When they finally delivered the cake on our table, the waitress was not even courteous enough to wish my mother. Is that what they call hospitality?😜 And, when they packed the cake for us, they didn't even bother to take the candle out! 🙄<br/><br/>2. The table was unattended most of the times. Cutlery was not being changed. And, they were keeping the used cutlery with leftover bones and forcing us to use the same. That was seriously a gross experience.😫 While having the dessert, we requested for a dessert spoon and, ta-da! They gave us a fork! 😂 All the dishes had stains and some even had food stains on them! Totally unhygienic!🤮<br/><br/>3. Coming to the food quantity, when you know that around 40 diners are eating simultaneously, how can you keep food in every counter sufficient to feed two people only? 😐 Moreover, most of them were live counters and the chefs were happily waiting at the counter, watching us complain that food needs to be refilled and then again filling food sufficient for two people. Oh my God! They need to know how to cook in plenty! 😂<br/><br/>4. Now let's talk about some food items. For starters, there was a live counter yet everything was cold. We tried shrimps, chicken kebabs, paneer tikka, and pan fried fish (the only saviour). The mocktail had watermelon and basil as the key ingredients and wasn't upto the mark. 😓 The international section hardly had the international cuisine. Poached fish and roasted chicken were bad but worth swallowing. When we asked for pasta in white sauce with chicken and veggies, we were served spaghetti that tasted pathetic. Plus, it had 4 chicken chunks and 1 chunk of red bell pepper. 😂 Mutton was replaced with cheap and bad quality goat meat in the Indian section. Biryani was mind-blowing pathetic. The fish was rotten and stale and filled with salt. 🤮 Jasmine rice was overcooked in the Asian section. The Noodles were comparatively better. I read good reviews on their dessert. My God! We could not have them! The taste was pathetic! Who dilutes the whipped cream in a black forest cake with water?😲 The rest were equally pathetic. The only good dish was the papdi chaat. I would like to extend my gratitude to the young boy at that live counter for filling my hungry stomach!🙏 And if you want to have ice-cream, please hire a bodybuilder or a weightlifter! 🤣<br/><br/>No hard feelings but Seasonal Tastes is nowhere close to a fine dining restaurant. Please improve the food quality and hospitality. There are guests dining from different cities and counties. Please don't degrade the name of our city because Kolkata is truly known for its hospitality. 🙏<br/><br/>Wishing you all the best! 🙂<br/>

visited, last year October... the food is nice & the ambience is wonderful.. but is not a vlog friendly place.. they dont allow capturing video.. so couldnot make the Youtube Vlog. but the food was superb..
Paromita Chowdhury
My love for special food took me to Seasonal Tastes for a special occasion. First of all, this looks like a complete business hotel who are not intended to provide great hospitality like ITC hotels. Westin is situated near Eco Park and the restaurant is situated on the 10th floor. The view looks good.<br/><br/>We went for a lunch buffet on a weekday. Food section is divided into chinese, continental, Indian, grill counter, pasta counter, street foods, salads, Indian and western desert sections. You have more options than you can imagine! Though I don't want to start with the desert section, but must say that I loved their deserts much more than ITC and Mariott. Infact they are quite innovative in this area. The chef must be amazing!!<br/><br/>Loved the continental section, fish and chicken both were juicy and tasted awesome. Breads are superb! They had 8 types of spreads to offer with breads and each one looked great! Loved both non-veg and veg options though I preferred non-veg for myself. <br/><br/>Chinese section is usual, the tawa prawns were nice, medium spicy. I was a bit disappointed with grilled prawn though. I asked them to grill prawns and they gave me a couple of grilled prawns, which were bitter and tasteless. I could not have it. <br/><br/>Indian section was nice, rezala was very yum. My love for continental and chinese bowled over and I was not very keen to have Indian food in Seasonal Tastes. <br/><br/>Loved the deserts, specially the mango item. I do not remember the names but each one of them was differently done and that just won my heart. The brownie was simply unbelievably good. <br/><br/>The food is ofcourse great! It was nice of them to come and ask about the food and if we need anything etc. I have been to multiple star rated hotels on special days (birthday, anniversary, daughter's birthday etc.)  and they have always wished me/the person with a cake from house. Here, I mentioned that it was a birthday but they simply did not bother to remember it at all! This kind of hospitality is definitely not acceptable from a place like this. <br/><br/>Loved the food but on such special occasions I would love to go back to ITC/ Mariott anyday!
Aishwarya Roy
Located very near to Ecopark, Newtown this place is a must visit. Probably the best buffet I have had on my entire life.. The spread was huge.. Located on the 10 th floor, view is also awesome.<br/>Coming to food section they have large options on starters but then dessert section steals the show. I wish I could try all the desserts as they were all so delicious. Also my favorite mutton biriyani was there in the mains section...<br/><br/>And you all will be surprised to know that we opted this lunch buffet just at 1486 bucks for 2 people (all inclusive) as we purchased a coupon from Nearby app.<br/><br/>The service was also good I'm definitely looking forward to visit the place again...
Animay Kumar
Excellent place with amazing buffet spread.<br/>Though I proffered the brunch spread better than the lunch spread, quality and taste of both was excellent.
Arya Banerjee
Quite the experience I had on my first visit I would say. I was very much blown away by the number of varieties of dishes with the added delight of a live cooking counter. They made sure almost every cuisine was there to serve us.<br/><br/>I really liked the welcome drink which was something of a peach flavoured. Although its a drink it was the highlight of my meal I would say. I had mainly the chinese starters in non veg and some veg. They were pretty good and that takes up a lot of your appetite hence I didn't really had much in main course so maybe next time. I was also very pleased to see different kinds of sauces to go with. There was a different section for street food which was pleasantly surprising. You dont get to see that often. So thats another option to try.<br/><br/>Coming to the desserts which is always my favourite part I think I was glad I didnt have much in main course because I just had to try almost every little treat. I'm still sad I didnt get to taste any of the ice-creams they had. Again, a lot of different flavours to try out. So I am definitely coming back some time again. For all of it 😅
Pratyusha Karmakar
Highly recommend buffet for everyone. Great quality and variety of food with an amazing star level ambience. The service was also well. Shall visit it once again.
Gautam Pal
Went for my son's birthday celebration with family. #Dinner buffet# Awesome spread# Lip smacking food# Worth every moment and penny spent# perfect family outing # highly recommended.
DrShreya Das
Situated in the 10th floor of the Westin Kolkata, This place is definitely one of the must-visit ones if you're looking for a dining experience par excellence- be it ambience, service or food.<br/><br/>The buffet includes a wide array of items, both vegetarian and non-vegetarian.<br/>Some of the items we had included salads,<br/>Pani Puri, Zucchini fritters( loved this one), Pasta cooked in your choice of sauce, breads freshly baked in a number of variants, cold cuts- ham, salami, pepperoni; wok tossed noodles, chicken tandoori, gosht dum biryani, tikka chicken masala, paneer butter masala and endless more items! *Burp* 😝<br/><br/>Desserts were never ending as well, starting from 4 flavours of ice creams ( I loved the kiwi variant) , coffee mousse, red velvet cake (I swear it's the best I've ever had) ,coconut and passion fruit cake, brownies, badaam halwa to name a few.<br/><br/>They even cooked us luchis (a kind of Bengali flat bread) on request.<br/><br/>Very highly recommended!<br/><br/>With Siddaling Ladde<br/>
Aditya Sharma
One the best spreads you can expect in a buffet. The Westin is an amazing place with the restaurant set in the 10th floor. The place is very spacious and the spread has been very well showcased. The live counter of pasta and stir fry veggies were delicious, the street food express containing Pani Puri and chats were tasty ! The desserts are a treat with an ever so delightful combinations. Do visit soon !
Amit Anand
Went for a dinner buffet. The place offers a lavish menu. Loved the starters and the salad variety. Noodles disappointed us as the lady misheard our customisation. Desserts were good but could have had better items, comparing to other 5 starred hotels. Mains were average. Overall, recommended.
Vamsi.krishna7921
This place is good to have a dining with your Colleagues, clients etc..This is place good for a professional dining. If you are looking for different taste and dishes, then take a u-turn. Food is good and tasty, but can do better.
Debrup Chakraborty
We booked our table at Seasonal Tastes(WESTIN) through Zomato for buffet. We were late but I called them and informed. They serve buffet till 3 and we reached at 2.45 having informed them so. But when we reached one of them at the reception of the restaurant refused our booking mentioning that buffet would not be available though we reached 15 mins earlier and also denied that they did not receive any call from us. We were told that they tried to call us but our phone was unreachable. Then another person told us to have a seat but the lady told us to take everything together in one plate and finish our food fast. So we hurriedly started to take food in our plates though we noticed that other people just started their lunch or carrying on their rounds... This kind of treatment is not expected and acceptable from a renowned hospitality service and catering.<br/>I am very disappointed and will never visit this place again.. Ruined the whole excitement and zeal..
Priyam
dear brethren, let me start by conveying my love for food, and that how much it disappoints me when something is just not the way it ought to be.. so.. our family went here for a dinner celebration recently. Had been here for sunday brunch before, and as such thought to give their dinner menu a try. So.. the ambience was nice as usual with the place far from being crowded.. all good right. Yea, but then venturing to the food itself, the menu itself had nothing much to offer. Being one of the classy hotels, one would have thought there would be multiple cuisines with a good spread across each.. but no. I wont even go into talking about something different or any unique items for which we normally go to high end joints. This was all pretty run of the mill. And then there was the other problem with the cooling of the AC.. it was simply not comfortable to sit and enjoy a nice meal. And then there was no system of a host to make the visit a bit better. So you see there are a lot of things these folks can seriously do. I will stop here.. my advice for any who want it, is just dont expect anything great.. have your food and thats pretty much it!
SrishTi Seal
The hotel by itself is really beautiful along with the amazing view you get from the restaurant. The buffet had an amazing spread with so many options to choose from. The staff were extremely warm and courteous. Special shout-out to the desserts in the buffet. They were amazing. Definitely going back :)
Swastika Paul
Well.... Westin it is... We went here to attend a conference on single cell 10X genomics.... The breakfast n lunch buffet was so good.... The food was so yummy n delicious....
Sushmita
We went there for a team lunch. It was not as expected. When we had gone there earlier, during inception we had much better food ans much better treatment, when compared to this time. There was less spread of starters. Desserts were good on the table. Should include more seasonal delicacies. The AC wasn't working in comparison to the number of people in the restaurant. Service, food and ambience could've been better.
Arwa Limdiwala
My dad and myself dropped by to celebrate Father's Day and we were spoilt for choice! The two on the top list were the Chaat counter and the Dessert section which had amazing variety! Everything that day was according to the Father's Day theme and since we both love sweets, we digged into each dessert variety only to have smiles on our faces! Our favourite picks would definitely be the Special cherry vanilla cake set up to celebrate the day along with the Red velvet cake!<br/>Swing by and you wont be disappointed. I'm glad my father enjoyed his day!
Noel Mendes
Beautiful view from the city, great place to be away from the main city. Great spread of food at thier buffets, service has been top notch for all days. Overall a great stay at the hotel with impeccable service standards. Must try.
Sudeshna Banerjee
The best lunch buffet I have ever had. The chefs are allowed to experiment and the results are fantastic. Huge spread, amazing food, friendly stafff... What else would anyone need to make your afternoon perfect?
Criselda David
It was an amazing evening at the Seasonal Taste in Westin Kolkata.The buffet was scrumptious with a wide variety to choose from.The food tasted as good as it looked (or even better).Loved the Doi Mach amongst other delicacies. We hosted an Eid dinner so it was important the guests enjoy the food and the ambience.The restaurant team understood our need and ensured everything was planned to the tee. To name a few - the restaurant supervisor Rohit Apat was warm and welcoming. He is surely on top of his game when it comes to customer experience. Avhi and Saptarshi were managing our tables ( group of 17-18 people & it can get chaotic sometimes ) & were constantly in their toes taking care of the guests . They ensured (as hosts ) we too enjoy the dinner & the evening along with our guests. There were a couple of elderly guests and never was there a moment when they were unattended. Last but not the least a special mention to Shalini (front desk) who showed me the property and the story behind each detail (the bookshelves, the 3D Durga etc).The view is breathtaking with unparalleled customer service .A big Thank You to the team at Seasonal Taste in Westin Kolkata , I would surely go back for what they offer (Service & Quality). Our Eid was special because you were part of it!! Keep up the good work & your zeal to delight the customers.<br/>NB: On Shalini’s recommendation, picked a couple of Tatha products from the Spa (Hand-cream & Face wash) & I must say it doesn’t disappoint at all !!
Prodipto Basu (foodblogger2121)
Just came for corporate food tasting.Thanks to Vishal Dhawan & Pryinka Gupta( Sales Manager and Sr Sales Manager for hosting so well. Thanks to Vikas Prasad ( Executive Chef) for feeding us wonder food cooked by you and your team. Westin Team well done for keeping high in quality and service. I rate 5/5.
Aparajit Mazumder
Simply awesome. Speciality is deserts.All types of food are available for all kinds of people.<br/>The quality is too good. Its far better than any other in kolkata
Kallol
This is a really delightful place to be in. The ambience is simply overwhelming. Food is extremely good. Waiters are very amiable. Besides the views around are also mind blowing. Would love to visit here again.
Abadur
An awesome view and at par with most of the five star properties in Kolkata, we were here for a quick bite so just tried the chicken caesar salad and the cold coffee. I personally like my cold coffee with a little whipped cream, it was there but not exactly to my liking. That being said is just a preference, taste wise it was on point and so was the Salad. I have not tried the buffet here so cannot say much, but have read great things about the Buffet Spread. Since it's a five star property it won't be cheap so comparing it price wise will be not a great thing to do.
Sohini Bose
Extremely delighted by the five star ambience and loved the hospitality.Since its close to my dads office they had invited my mom and dad to celebrate there 29th anniversary with them.it was a hugee buffet featuring a no of items both veg and non veg.there were live counters too..both in the food as well as dessert section<br/>One thing which i missed was that there were no prawn options in the buffet except the prawn salad and being a prawn lover it was kind of heartbreaking for me.but nevertheless each item was so tasty and nice.they had also arranged a cake splly fr my mom and dad<br/><br/>It was overally a lovely experience.please do visit
Richaa J.
First thing that attracted me towards Seasonal Tastes was their levish menu and colourful ambience. I love the way this place is set up. All the dishes I tried were good, specially fish. I went during Rajasthani food fest and veg dishes were equally good.
Moumita Ghosh
I got really bad stomach pain after having lunch in Weston restaurant.. this is not expected from a big buffet of such a reputed place. Me and my friends both had a night long pain.. had to take medicine.. disappointed!!
Soham Tah
I never go this place,but Zomato know anything else ..😶.. And the places I visited or booked through Zomato, they never show those. The rating is completely virtualized by my brain.
Sanjana Dey
This one was in the bucket list from a long time. And at last it happened. We visited this place on their Japanese Food Festival. And my goodness the spread! Every type of sushi was prepared upfront. We even tried the Japanese pancake from the live counter. I had literally stuffed my face with sushi. The ambiance is beautiful. And the staff is just amazing. If the buffet is so good, I'm really excited to taste their Ă  la carte!
Palma Gayen
Went there with office colleagues for a luncheon. It has a warm and comfortable ambience. Liked the prompt service. Buffet spread was really huge. Specially liked their continental cuisine and variety of cheese collections.
Achintya
Went twice. There buffet is having great variety. Ambiance is also good. Couple of live counters also. Food tasted above average. The desserts were great.
Arya Banerjee
A.C. was not working properly within the restaurant. We changed the seat once and reported the same to management but to no avail. <br/>Coming to food now, there were less options of non veg starters. Some non veg kebabs should be included. There was an array of main course but none of them tasted up to the standard. We tasted mangsher jhol (mutton) which was pretty blunt. White chicken Pasta was okay. There was a chat stall and the items tasted good. Desserts were better than starters and main course. We had sitabhog, gulab jamun, lengcha and some really nice tarts.<br/>I believe that the only thing which we were impressed was the service and hospitality of the staffs. Behaviour and friendliness of Tuli(staff of Westin) was noteworthy.
Ananya Dastidar
We went there for our anniversary dinner. The spread was lavish and especially the food from the live counters were delicious. We were also offered complementary drinks which we appreciated very much. The desserts section has good variety. A good experience to have.
Anirban Saha
One of my favourite 5star restaurant after ITC. Food quality, food variety,food taste just exceed the expectation level. Live grill counter and starters are too much yummy. When we came into the deserts, just fall into the love!!!!! Every deserts quality is too good and tasty!!!!!!Staffs are also very polite. A very good buffet place in Kolkata..must try everyone....
Yash
Very nice service and great hospitality..Super fast service, their buffest had humongous assortment of different cuisines and delicacies which makes it stand out of the rest.

"FOOD IS FINGER LICKING DELICIOUS"<br/><br/>Seasonal Tastes, a round the clock restaurant of The<br/>Westin, is located on the 10th floor of the hotel. As<br/>the name suggests, you'll get the taste of various<br/>seasons and cuisines here. Starting from our very<br/>own Indian to all time favourite Italian to the crux of<br/>fine dining (American), name it and you have it. The<br/>ambience and hospitality are something to look out<br/>for. In one word, it's a paradise for fine dining lovers!<br/><br/>Today is "Mother's day" I couldn't have been much happier seen my mother enjoy her food 💯<br/><br/>✔ Chicken Biryani<br/>✔ Chicken butter masala<br/>✔ Chicken handi Masala with Garlic Naan<br/>✔ Golden Fried Prawns<br/>✔ Prawn Chilli<br/>✔ Chicken Hakka Noodles.<br/>✔ Strawberry Mocktail<br/>✔ Dessert loved it.<br/>Thank you<br/>The Westin<br/><br/>Adios ❤
G CHANG
First visit celebrating new year was very good that made me go for a second visit today for Mother’s Day. Wrong choice. Regret to say that for the ambience and the hype coupled with the price, service is very poor. Reached few minutes before the buffet timing but housekeeping wasn’t completed yet. Previous day’s crumbs left behind by the customers still plays peekaboo with you in the sofa. Awful ! You mention lunch price for Mother’s Day event in your banner but charge brunch on billing- not professionally ethical.
Pratyay Maitra
The look and feel is stunning along with the hospitality.<br/><br/>This place is for people who prefer less spicy stuff. The variety of dishes deserve plaudits as well as the llive counters.<br/><br/>The salad, starters and dessert items were palatable barring a few while the main course ( as we had the lunch buffet) lacked creativity compared to the other preparations.<br/><br/>The overall experience was satisfactory, however, we, the Bengalis would have preferred a bit more spicy dishes as part of our food culture.<br/>
Kaushik Basu
It was a Sunday lunch (to be precise, extended brunch) & really lavish option. The vareity is really praiseworthy, particularly the salad and dessert sections. Once you try it out, you can realize why it has quickly become the best buffet option in town. Choice is purely personal, get driven by your taste buds while admiring the Newtown skyline, but di try the various options including the luve food options to be pleasantly surprised. Definitely recommend.
Srimoi
I'm not someone who says 'this is the best' for anything, but the buffet at Seasonal Tastes was probably one of the best I've tasted in Kolkata. Add to that, very courteous service and you'll have an experience worth remembering.<br/><br/>I was here on two occasions, once for the regular buffet lunch and once for their Japanese food festival, and the food tasted perfect both times. There's nothing that I can specifically recommend since every morsel I tasted seemed like it had been given a lot of attention to.<br/><br/>All the best guys, and I do hope you maintain the same standards in the years to come.<br/><br/>
Poonam Das
Awesome ambiance and awesome place ...Starter and maincourse could be better.. However Desert section was awesome...Must recommend it to visit...
Obhisek
This place is just awesome. Their buffet is goooooo goooooo. The staff is extremely polite and friendly. You can order same dish 💯 times and they will bring them each time with a smile. 10 on 10 guys. Keep it up..........
Sohini Seal
Excellent place with excellent food. The buffet was multicusine,it was really a very nice experience in dining at westin.it was a huge spread buffet with absolute value for money.the behavior of the stuffs and service were really very good. wish to visit again.
Nirmallya Seth
This was indeed one of my best experience ever in any fine dining (Buffet) in Kolkata.  We went their for Sunday Brunch and it was a great experience. Variation in lunch buffet was superb, moreover it was their Easter special brunch.  They have countless items of foods, with live counters like Grill Counter, Tastes of Asia, Chaat Counter, Regional Food Counter etc..<br/><br/>A Big Thumbs Up !!
Gourab Chatterjee
Awesomeness was the spread and the taste..<br/>And more over service..<br/>Must visit place and one of the best buffet in kolkata..<br/>And thanks to nearbuy big buffet carnival also.<br/>

Went for some snack with friend in seasonal tastes the Weston kolkata Rajarhat order planner achari tikka and this what I found in the dish “ MAKKHI “ worst situation seriously! The Weston Rajarhat please go through my complain!
Jaita Saha
Visited the star studded buffet of our town as the venue of annual luncheon of our office. Sitting and buffet arrangements are very appropriate and nicely decorated. The buffet spread was huge but many items lacked taste. Live counters are not up to the mark. Dessert section is good. I enjoyed the non veg salads and continental main courses were also good.
RUMA Saha
Ambiance is too good. I have visited on the eve of Poila Baishak (Bengali new year) so buffet menu had more bengali delicacies. Food quality is too good. Buffet lunch on Saturday has long list of item. Lots of fish preparations. Live counter is awesome. Price is bit pocket pinch. Only drawback is lack of welcome drinks so price of mocktail is add- on to food price. Staffs and their services are exceptionally good. It was a very good experience in overall.
Uddipan Halder
Great experience, in terms of ambience, hospitality and food. Went for Sunday brunch and u will be spoilt for choice on food. From live chat counters to sautĂŠ to Italian to sea food, it had all. Capping it off was a spread of 35 varieties of desserts!! Cheesecakes, tart, chocolate, cakes, Bengali sweets etc. Will definitely go back for more.

Superb Service! Great choice. Overall nice ambience and a place I would revisit with friends and family. Would recommend for those who are not in a hurry. Pastry section is quiet nice I must add.
Maharshi Banerjee
Loved their welcoming nature, right from the security to lounge crew to the 10th floor banquet crew. Excellent spread of food & multiple live counters with very experienced chefs. Great decor & view from 10th floor.
Prasantik Ghosh
The restaurant is at the 10th floor. This sums up the point the kind of view that you will be having while enjoying your food. The buffet when compared with JW MARRIOTT is far better and the options are also easy to go through. But there are places of improvement. Being a 5 star restaurant, you expect to have the best of the experience and Marriott Westin does not disappoint you. Don't confuse it with JW MARRIOTT as these belongs to a different section of MARRIOT altogether. Bon Appetit.

Yesterday, i was with my team and tried Westin and guess what I had a wonderful lunch.<br/>One of our colleague from Australia really liked the food and ambience.. The desert taste could have better as it was very sweet.. Else everything including staff were very attentive and responsive..

Kolkatans, especially Bengalis love spending almost all their hard earned money on food. We have embraced almost all the cuisines from every corner of the globe. Presently Bengalis have moved on from their Tyangra Machh (cat fish) to Sharks and fresh Fulkopi (cauliflower) to broccoli! Globalization has at least revolutionized the food industry here in Kolkata and so, a food blogger like me can be the happiest person, it’s like a boom of content for us! 🙂 Jokes apart, talking about various cuisines, I still miss a few food items and cuisines in Kolkata. Like, I badly miss my Hainanese chicken rice which was my staple in Singapore. And definitely, I miss the Parsi cuisine as a whole, which happens to be one of my favorites. Though there is a small place in Kolkata serving Parsi food but they have also started selling Bengali meals because they need to feed their children as well. So, a few days ago when I discovered this Parsi Food Festival going on at Westin (Kolkata), I almost rediscovered my majjani life!

Great buffet xprnce in newtown. Westin is located just opposite to the ecopark gate no 2. Heard a lot before about its superior quality food and huge range of buffet options in every section and ultimtly tried them amd most imply tasted every item in a lunch buffet. All d foods starting from salad to main course (much to say about deserts) are awsm.only fish salad was a lil bit smelly. Now come to the DESERT section. U can satisfy your stomach just seeng the huge collection of deserts starting from mousee, cakes, pstry to sweets dishes, fresh cut fruits.<br/>Ambience is awsm.

Wanted to visit this place for a very very long time. Finally when I visited the place to have a lunch buffet with my wife I was surprised to see the spread over there. They had literally every kind of dishes. Food was fantastic. One would feel spoilt by choices. We tasted as many as our stomach could take and boy there was nothing to complain. Even the desserts were yumilicious. Would definitely recommend it.

Happened to come here on a hailstorm day coupled with thunderstorm. Firstly, the staffs were very cordial and looked after the hospitality efficiently. The ambience and the place is splendid. There is scope for improvisation in food. We had ordered- mixed sauce pasta which was good. Dal makhni, mixed vegetables and paneer tikka makhani, vegetable biryani, rotis and cheese naan. It would be lovely if there is more variety in a la carte especially for dinner. Hope to come again and try out buffet and breakfast as I am a member of Westin.

Reserved a table for 12 two days in advance for a team dinner. Arrived at the restaurant to find three separate tables allocated. When we asked to be seated together we were rudely told that all the other tables were reserved. Only when I questioned that why we were not informed at the time of booking, were we given a long table. I'm surprised after staying at many Westin, St Regis and JW Marriott properties how incompetent and untrained the staff at this hotel are. One can only assume they are inexperienced graduate hires from the local colleges.<br/><br/>Coming to the buffet, it was at best mediocre except for the dessert selection which was excellent. If you're looking for quantity and variety but inconsistent quality, then this would be a option. I personally wouldn't recommend it.

If You want to have an excellent buffet in a 5-star Restaurant within a reasonable budget then this is the place to be.<br/><br/>Went there for an Anniversary party with a group of 30 people.And the experience is just mind-blowing.<br/><br/>First of all before coming to the food, I would really like to point out the hospitality of this restaurant which is just awesome. So a big thumbs up for all the arrangements.<br/><br/>Now coming to the food you would get a plethora of choices starting from continental ,chinese,indian You would probably turned up saying its too much.<br/><br/>Coming to the quality of the food it was pretty very much hygienically made but there are grounds for improvement. But I must surely mention the desert section its soo good.<br/><br/>So it gets a thumbs up from my side.<br/><br/>Even you are allowed to access the pool side which will surely give you an ecstatic feeling.<br/><br/>
Arpita Das Praharaj
The ambience was good... but the food was disappointing... For an authentic foodie, I had higher expectations... The chicken biryani was meat mixed with rice, not a biryani but... the conti section was not that bad. But I think the section that was most disappointing was the desserts... No. Nada. Not done. Would be nice if it's taken care of. All the best!
Mohor Roy
What to say about this place it has an awesome buffet spread and the ambience is great.. The place is located on the 10th floor of the Westin and as I told the buffet comes with a whole load of various cuisines from all around the world.... Service was prompt and the staff was very courteous ... Taste was great...I would definitely recommend to visit it...
Libon Fernandes
Amazing buffet, with a whole load of various cuisines from all around the world. Service was prompt. Taste was great. Higher on the pocket value, but worth a try.

Since from the inception this place is much hype for it's food. The buffet spread is huge for Sunday brunch than their regular lunch and dinner buffet. I visited on 3rd March '19 for a Sunday brunch.<br/>The seasonal taste is on the 10th floor of the building. The view from the dine in place is beautiful. You may get a chance to see the Eco park and nearby places from a significant height. They have emphasize in live in counters so the space is huge. There is a attached bar just next to the dine in place. They also have one live performance (with voice) which is a topping to this.The ambience is quite soothing with sanskrit slokas on the wall. We must thank god for serving food to us so prayers before meal is compulsory in some part of our country.<br/>Here it starts with the food review:<br/>When I ask chef. from where I should start and what is the dish which I must go for??<br/>immediately he replied back that I would rather ask to to taste each dish once and let me know how it is. So that means I have to reach almost every food stall. I started with barbecue chicken wings with fish steak with potatoes. Those are not impressive but okay. I had tasted some mushrooms and toffu stuffed over bell pepper and a baked potato. There was a separate chat and pani Puri section from which I took some nuts. Then there was a different salad section like Indian and middle eastern dressing. I had few from the later one. From the live in counters I have asked them to give me a price of red snapper roasted. This tasted same when I taste first in andaman.<br/>While.I am proceeding towards oriental section my eyes were stuck with roll and paw bhaji section. I asked them to give me a roll with chappili kebab. From the Indian section I had mutton biryani, ghosht saageala and chicken biryani. I love all of them specially the mutton biryani and ghosht saagwala.Then I tasted some noodles with prawn and vegetables. To change the taste I had some fried papads. They have separate bread section but I didn't opted that. I started my desert. but it is 10meter long spread. it's very difficult for a person to taste each one of them. tasted few of them. Lastly took a cup of honey with crunch ice cream to end the appetite.<br/>I was full of tummy just sitting idle and recollecting what I had the chef came to me and asked about each and every dish which I had. based on my personal review he share his card to me and asked to contact him on my next visit. A must visit for a foodie if you are serious lover of buffet.<br/>
Dipti Saraf
Loved the ambience! We tried different cuisines and all dishes were above par. Chef Yash had been very kind to us and served us beautiful food with his own twists!
Pratik Saraf
A very fulfilling experience. The food is exemplary, but the factor which made the dinner memorable was the exceptionally cordial staff especially the service offered by the chef -Yashpal Choudhary.
Surajit Biswas
26-Feb-19:<br/><br/>It was a casual meet with our Chinese counterparts over a dinner buffet.<br/><br/>First thing first, it was an awesome spread. There were so many options to choose from.<br/><br/>I could hardly remember when was the last time I had so soft lamb in a stew!! It was marvellous...<br/><br/>Apologies that I can’t put one single item on top out of the spreads available for the night.<br/><br/>A very well selected collection of cheese, also not to forget the cold cuts !! Aaaah, the pepperoni was mind blowing.<br/><br/>I personally liked the desert section for multiple sweet options.<br/><br/>Excellent experience, will visit soon with my better half.<br/><br/>
Mousumi Das
One of the best buffet in kolkata!<br/>Visited this place for team lunch and had an awesome experience. Different cuisines are available here. Also there are live counters available, so one can order their food as per their choice.. And trust me guys you will fall in love with their dessert counter 😍😍.. It's a must try..
Anamika Maji
We visited there at lunch buffet. Food was good. Specially the desserts section, there were so many various pastries I just loved those all. Anyway there's a special section of Bengali cuisine where one can have some mouth watering Bengali dishes which is so blissful. Overall it's great. And of course the ambience 👍<br/>
Somnath Maji
Nice ambience and great place for lunch/dinner with your family and friends. The dessert was good among all. I would have expected better starter. Received 20% corporate discount.
Ritam Ganguly
We visited the Seasonal Tastes on the eve of the Valentine's Day for the special buffet and were greeted with the complimentary sparkling wine. Coming to the food, the grilled chicken and the baked fish were really nice. The Alfredo pasta was also really nice. The Hyderabadi Biryani packed a unique punch of its own. The Mutton Pasinda was ok. The Kashmiri Pulao, though fragrant, lacked texture and taste. The Bao were dry and not much to crave for. The clams emitted a really bad smell. In hindsight I wish we hadn't taken those. The dessert counter was something straight out of a fairy tale book. The cakesicles, pastries, chocolate were all awesome. The dessert counter would spoil anyone for choice. I would rate the visit a 3.5/5.
TITIN
The place is obviously so good. Buffet menu was great. Different cuisines , different desserts. Chaat counters, bread counters etc. The desserts n breads I liked most. The fish preparations was not up to the mark.
Dibyendu Pal
Today on the occasion of Valentine's Day 14th of Feb 2019 we went for lunch at Seasonal Taste Westin Rajarhaat on the 10th floor.<br/>As soon as we entered we were accompanied by Mr Ankit who is working there.<br/>He gave a warm welcome and help us to be seated at the window table which was booked earlier.<br/>Then Mr Ankit asked for water and he arranged the same for us.<br/>Then he helped us with the fooding and showed us the counters of buffet. There at the Chinese counter we were accompanied by chef Dinesh who helped us with the Chinese food.<br/>Overall the experience and ambiance was good and must say a well planned Management.
Pratik Doshi
The place is really good . And it gives you a perfect view of eco park from the 10th floor . The staff is friendly , the food was good , you can go to this place and have a great time with friends and family . 👍🏻👍🏻
KAUSTAV MALLICK
Visited here this year to celebrate my bae's pre-bday and this place turned out to be the best one. Located on the 10th floor of the building gives you the view of the entire greenery of newtown-rajarhat.  Very very courteous staffs. Had an wonderful experience.
Chiranjeeb Das
Went with my Wife on our 14th Anniversary. Had read about the positive reviews about the Buffet and was also referred by a Close Friend of Mine.<br/>Ambience and Decor was Good and Matched Expectation.<br/>The Buffet was dissapointing in terms of Content , Variety and Spread . Had more expectations from the Western Dishes in Particular. Dessert section was quite average , lacked the Pure Chocolate experience.<br/>My wife liked the Birayani but thats not why I went to Seasonal Tastes.<br/>Overall an Average and OK experience. Definitely a One Time Endeavour.
Anushka Deb
I visited this place to celebrate my friend's birthday. For the dĂŠcor and ambience, I give 5 stars. Beautifully decorated and good hospitality.<br/>Now coming to the food, we opted for buffet. It consisted of many cuisines like continental,chinese,indian. Also it had different types of chesse,chats,cold cuts,salads. Out of all,the desserts stole the show. Some of the dishes were very bland and lacked the flavours.<br/>The mutton dish in the Indian main course section was extremely salty. I think they should take more care about the taste of the dishes.
Travel.food.love_
One of the best buffets in kolkata!<br/>The spread is super amazing, with such a wide varieties of options!<br/>Really loved the thai curry, stir fried rice and noodles!<br/>You can't forget about the desserts❤️<br/>What a spread of desserts, felt like a small kid wanting to have every single dessert in the spread!<br/>Really had a great experience!
Shritoma Sengupta
Lovely experience! I had gone for the buffet and the foods were too good! Would love to be back here especially for the sumptuous dessert counter.. 😋😊
Mandira Dewanjee
Few days back I went there for lunch buffet. Liked their menu and preparations. If you have 3hrs time with you..then please visit this place...until and unless you will not be able to taste all the items 😊<br/>Recommend dishes : chiken roast, mutton kosha, red velvet cake , nolen gurer icecream
ABHISHEK BANERJEE
Seasonal Taste, Westin- 4.9/5 - Must visit<br/><br/>⭐ Of the buffet was Live Grill counter<br/><br/>💡 Something new and refreshing in the buffet was Tender Coconut<br/><br/>👍 Starters (Dry chilli chicken ,Lahori tikka, Dimsum, Soup etc)<br/>👍 Cold Salads (which included crab, lobster, turkey and ham salami,squid,bacon etc)<br/>👍 Live counters (Grilled, Wok, Chat, Pav Bhaji, Roll Counter)<br/>👍 Main course ( Biriyani ,Baked Fish, Mutton meatballs, Indian dishes)<br/><br/>👉Desserts (35 variety but not all tasted good, MARRIOTT was better where quality and taste was better)<br/><br/>👎 Service (Needs to improve, staffs need to be more attentive and courteous)<br/><br/>This is one of the best buffet I ever had. Most of the food tasted great and the spread was HUGE. We went for the Sunday Brunch and I was blown away by wide range of items that were being offered in the Brunch. I would recommend anyone visiting this place to book a table before visiting and be there as early as possible coz you WILL need time if you want to taste everything. This is the newest kid on the block of FIVE STAR hotels in Kolkata but from a very renowned international hotel chain<br/><br/>I could have easily rated it 5 or even more but where I found most of the things (be it food ,ambience, spread) to be great there hospitality was blot on the white sheet.It needs to be improved and am sure with a bit of an effort from management it can be done as we all expect a top notch service from a hotel chain like Westin. It seemed they were a bit reluctant and specially getting something from the live counter took a bit of effort. If someone has been to JW MARRIOTT or NOVOTEL they could easily feel the difference in service and hospitality<br/><br/>Apart from all that was on the table they have 5 live counters (Chinese, grilled, chat,pauvaji,Kolkata roll counter) covering most of the cuisine one can think of. The best one being the grilled counter where they had few sea food options.<br/><br/>Dessert section doesn't end and runs till the horizon (pun intended 😉) consisting mostly International with few Indian choices.<br/><br/>They also have a kids counter which is rare and great !
Shivangi Chatterjee
Seasonal Tastes, a round the clock restaurant of The Westin, is located on the 10th floor of the hotel. As the name suggests, you’ll get the taste of various seasons and cuisines here. Starting from our very own Indian to all time favourite Italian to the crux of fine dining (American), name it and you have it. The ambience and hospitality are something to look out for. In one word, it’s a paradise for fine dining lovers!
Akram Sahabaz
The aura was nice and clean. There were a variety of dishes from sautes to Chinese to fries and sizzlers... Also the mocktales were fabulous... I specially loved the coconut rasberry cake, it really plays with your palette...also there were some new flavours with caviare and salad station..<br/>
Soumita.ganguly
Excellent Ambience , good food and the warm hospitality from Tuli Avhi and Ankit at Seasonal Taste  made our Anniversary Lunch perfect :) Recommended for the overall experience .
Swapna Roy
Great place to hang out. 10th floor feels like the top of the world. Great view of the city of joy. A place close to the heart. And hearty thanks to Mr. AMIT KUMAR SINGHA for being the loveliest host and for great service. Thank you Westin.<br/><br/>- Swapna Roy
Anisha Gupta
Not a single food from the buffet was served hot. Only the live food counters served hot. But you can’t ask them every time to reheat the food and serve you. I asked for a kulcha and that too was reheated and not freshly made. I won’t ever recommend this to anyone
Subham Shome
For Taste Of Calcutta , I had been here for the Rajasthani Food Festival #rangeelarajasthanfoodfest, and the food were very delicious, especially the Bajre ki Roti and Dal. The whole kitchen is buffet and its very comfortable and cozy. Ambience is superb. Also, we met with some of the Atletico De Kolkata players at the restaurant.
Soumi Sengupta 🍻
It is located on the 10th floor and that gives it a great advantage. The view of partially developed Rajarhat from the glass façade, spread across one side of this beautiful and classy all day dining is simply stunning. Soft pastel shades, light coloured furniture, straight lines and a very attractive placing of the buffet counters gives a very pleasant feeling. I have always been quite averse to buffet food but I had to change my opinion here. This place thrives on its buffet. The Sunday brunch is lavish, where most of the food is in live counters. From grills, paellas, kebabs, chaat, stir-fries and much more; the food from pan to a plate is always more delicious. Sundays are also the time when you get options for a huge variety of seafood as well as different kinds of fish. The 'Kebabs' are melt in the mouth and the 'Asian Stir-fry Squids' are just rightly done. This is one buffet which is worth taking the effort to drive all the way to Rajarhat from town
Tanuj Mitra
Ankit and amit singha thanku for all ur hospitality given to me and my family in todays buffet lunch. Food and chefs are just amzing they do anything u want. Thanku team westin. Visit soon.<br/>
Payal
The ambience and food is really good. I personally loved their dessert section. They have got a very wide selection. I loved their cheesecake. I have had a very good cheesecake in such a long time. Also I loved their creme brulee, pistachio eclair and all the glass mousses. Everything was just perfect
Suparna Anand
Amazing amazing amazing......no wonder its a very very good place and their food is too tasty...must try.I had buffet on 1st jan that day they have special menu.And it was great and worth visit the place.Very much satisfy with the food the quality ambience everything.Just perfect.
Moumita Pal
It was my Birthday treat, I choose Seasonal Testes after hearing good feedback from my colleagues and I am not disappointed at all. I was a delightful experience. Salads and Deserts were countless. main course was very tasty. I am bowled over their courteous staff and services special mention require for Avhi and Amarjeet. We got a complementary Virgin Mohito from restaurant. Ambience was beautiful, food was great, staff was awesome. Overall worth trying.
Ashutosh Upadhyay
Well this was my 1st 5* hotel experience. Very nyc ambience. Food was really good. Desserts were the best. Staff was also very watchful and eager to attend to our needs. The cherry on top was the view from the 10th floor. Great place to go on dates or to go with family.
Arka Bhattacharjee
t is simply an amazing place to visit. the staff are extremely courteous, delicious and well spread out buffet menu, with comfortable and spacious sitting, with excellent view during sunlight from the 10th floor..<br/><br/>A must visit many a times..
Tanaz Buhariwalla
Excellent breakfast spread. Highlight being the healthy option of dosa they offer that changes daily. The flavours in their food very distinct and not overpowering. Really good multi-grain bread. Very courteous staff. Attentive to detail. Natural light flowing through their large and many windows cheer the place up. A special mention for Avhi Dutta who remembered my meal preference through my trip, was extremely courteous and meticulous at his work.<br/>
Priyanka Barui
Went here for my 25th birthday. The ambience is top class . Try getting a window seat. And must say the food is going to make your day. I had the veg lunch buffet. Mr Shankar, the manager was very polite and cooperative. The staffs were so friendly. Although I feel, they can introduce kebabs in the starter.<br/><br/>Starting with the welcome drink, which was served after we completed our starters. It was an amazing orange juice. You can literally get the taste of real orange in it.<br/><br/>Starters had potato and mushroom, corn, paneer tikka, numerous chutney.<br/>Live counter for pasta and wok.<br/>There was a toss your own salad counter and another counter where there were assorted mushrooms, dahi vada, chat, zucchini salad, Russian salad etc.<br/>There was a counter for cold cuts and make your bhelpuri.<br/>Coming to the main course, it was totally based on Bengali cuisine. We had chutney aloo, pea pulav, breads, rajma, paneer masala, raita, papad, gulab jamun. Although they had many other dishes as well. Rajma was too good.<br/>Then comes the real gala. The extravagant dessert spread which had over 25 desserts and I loved each one of it. It is truly for the dessert lovers.<br/>They also arranged the complimentary birthday cake which was very tasty.<br/>But it's recommended to order the cake a day prior to your visit.<br/>All in all, I had an amazing experience.<br/><br/>Food: 4/5<br/>Ambience: 5/5<br/>Management: 5/5

We went for buffet lunch during durga puja..The ambiance is awsome specially the big durga face in the lobby wall.Food was good but lil bit costly....
Poulami Nath
We have visited The Westin last December to celebrate my brother's marriage anniversary. The place was awesome, nicely decorated. They have welcomed us with a nice gesture. Now coming to the food. We went to taste their lunch buffet. All foods, specially the starters and the desserts were awesome and each and every taste was unique and delicious. Special thanks to Mr. Amarjit Singh and Mr. Subrata Das for their brilliant service.
Shromona Pandit
For a five star restaurant, I had high expectations from this one, but was sadly disappointed. The food is average at best, and the desserts are mostly tasteless and not even sweet! The facilities are lacking, especially for families with babies since they don't have high chairs for infants or diaper changing rooms. The ambience of course is great and you get a panoramic bird's eye view of Kolkata, but the food lacks in taste and variety that we've come to expect from buffets in five star hotels. For the hefty price you pay for a meal, the quality is really not up to par.
Suzratzz
One of the best place to have family get together and food. Lovely ambiance, excellent food, big spread a real gala... I enjoyed the cheese and dessert section, the presentation of the food at restaurant can challenge any 5 star hotel...the chef Elina was was very kind enough to make a crumble for my us.
Ayan Mondal
I simply loved this place. The quality of food and the ambience was awesome. This place is highly recommended. They serve a unique platter of fish which is absolutely great.
Somek (Kolkata Food Trotters)
And the #foodielicious final weekend of 2018 continues and how!!<br/><br/>After enjoying #CoffeeRoastedBeef & #NolengurRoastedPork on Friday followed by #WholeDuckRoast & #TurkeyRoast on Saturday - I wanted to go all out on the final #Sunday of the year and what better way to do that than by relishing on undoubtedly one amongst the best (if not the best) #SUNDAYBRUNCH in town at Seasonal Tastes at The Westin Kolkata Rajarhat with my school buddies..<br/><br/>What variety, quality and service we got - #impeccable - if I have to sum it in one word - it was truly an unparalleled feast of eating away to glory (pun intended).. 180 minutes of non-stop unadulterated #foodgasm - that's how my Sunday brunch was today.. Felt like we had consumed one whole year of food in one afternoon - stuffed to the brim and yet couldn't manage to try out everything - such an extensive spread it was - for example, there were ONLY 35 desserts - yes #only is the key word out here 😅😅.. Most of the delicacies were a delight to the tastebuds - there's no point talking about all of them bcz I will end up writing a novel in that case probably bcz of the sheer numbers involved.. 🤣🤣<br/><br/>Great views from your table adds to the overall experience and I strongly feel this hotel is an architectural marvel from inside - the exterior outlook doesn't tell you the whole story!!<br/><br/>Thanks a ton Executive Chef Vikash Prasad for making the experience truly special for all of us with the help of your culinary magic..<br/><br/>I have had my share of Sunday brunches at every five 🌟 in the city and hence, I will confidently place this experience on the top of the stack.. If you haven't been there yet - try dropping in and make your Sunday gastromically delightful..<br/><br/>My Sunday is so sorted that I will for sure skip my dinner today simply bcz there is no more space for anything to be stuffed inside me.. 😅😅<br/><br/>My humble two cents: #MUSTTRY<br/><br/>Journey of an Epicurean Cine Trotter continues..<br/><br/>My journey can also be tracked on #Instagram via @epicureancinetrotter<br/><br/>By the way, have you joined Kolkata Food Trotters on FACEBOOK yet??
Avik Das
Awesome brunch. A wonderful experience starting from the starters down to the desserts! A must visit . Am coming back pretty soon ! Ambience and service was also top notch.
Samarpita Rakshit
This place is located on the 10th floor of westin, rajar hat.<br/>We went for a team lunch with colleagues.<br/>Ambience: Exactly what we can expect from a 5 star hotel. Dining area is spacious and very well decorated. You will get a bird eye view of Rajarhat if you grab a window side table.<br/><br/>Service: staffs are really well trained, very polite and proactively helpful.<br/><br/>Food: Hundreds of options from various cuisines including Chinese, continental, Mexican, italian etc. They have a live counter and a chaat counter as well.<br/>Dessert section was really impressive . There were few suger free dessert items also.<br/><br/>Overall its an amazing place to have lunch or dinner.
Sumit Bhattacharya
Awesome experience if I try to put it in one word. We had opted for the sunday brunch and the spread was more than even I could count. The dessert section was specially more appealing.
Ani Banerjee
Caesar Salad. I was being want of only that plate. Wow. Had a facial expression of the food critic Auguste Gusteau from the movie Ratatouille. <br/><br/>Why 4? Give a wee bit more!
Siddhi Newatia
Amazing ambience, food was also pretty good although i felt the a la carte menu could have more options in it. We ordered spring roll and pasta for food both of which were quite good especially the spring rolls and we ordered for liit and daiquiri for drinks which again was well made. Overall a good experience. The only thing which disappointed me a little was that i had informed about the birthday of the person i was with and i was told a complimentary dessert would be done but nothing was done about it. This was something not expected of a reputed restaurant. But their overall service was quite satisfactory and i would still recommend this place for a nice evening. Also it definitely requires more veg options in the a la carte menu
Snehaal Deshmukh
Been here a dozen times and couldn't update a review, my bad! But honestly this place doesn't even need one. Love, love, love the food served at Feast and absolutely adore the service and the ambience of this beautifully lit, elegant restaurant.I'll come back for the edit!Go ahead, binge at Feast!
Ranjit Mallick
Sudipto,Sourav and the team have been excellent.Food too for the christmas brunch has been very good. The ambience is really amazing. All the variety of food that was offered was on point. Thankyou so muxh.
Pallav Dasgupta
(This 1 star is strictly for their ambience) I had been here for lunch buffet on my anniversary on 15-Dec-2018.. Upon arrival at the restaurant (i.e. 2.45 PM and their buffet end time is 3 PM) on which I was welcomed by saying pour everything at once on your plate and then sit, from the very first gesture itself I was completely pissed off. My point is if you are about to close please tell the customer upfront that we won't be able to serve you properly so please visit us on some other day , I would have appreciated that gesture.<br/><br/>Anyhow I controlled my emotions by thinking that food must be of very high standards so I can take this.. But coming to food right from starters till desserts the food taste, the whole menu for the buffet was extremely ordinary.<br/><br/>I was extremely disappointed with the taste of food, all normal bengali cusines as Mutton Kosha, Chkn Kosha, Butter Paneer and all were there, and the more disappointing part was in non veg starters section only and only chicken tikka was there, this was not at all expected. I think BBQ nation or Novotel buffet is far far better option than this place. Service was completely disaster no body during the entire duration came to us enquiring about the food quality or any other thing.<br/><br/>I called out the Manager (Mr. Rohit Apat) and Chef (Mr. Debayan Chakrovorty) for letting them know about how much disappointed I was on such a special day of my life. They were apologetic for the quality of service and food quality and were ready to waive off our bill but I forcefully paid 1 buffet cost as my intention was not to get the waiver it was for letting them how they have ruined my special day.<br/><br/>Anyways, this was my first and last visit to this place. I would highly recommend not to visit this place.
Amitava Mitra
This place is located at the 10th floor of the Westin. You get a feeling of grandeur as soon as you take their glass elevators! I took my parents out to this place and ran off to the dessert section that boasts of 30+ items. Quite a few are from the sugar free area, so the diabetics can also dig in. The Gateaux absolutely melts in your mouth.<br/><br/>There were choices amongst Bengali, Chinese, Oriental and Continental amongst the buffet and the food will not disappoint.<br/><br/>I only wish we got a seat next to the windows, as the view is better there. <br/><br/>Food - ☆☆☆☆<br/>Service -☆☆☆☆<br/>Ambience - ☆☆☆☆
Upasana Pandey
I visited this place with 20 people for the marriage anniversary celebration of my parents. I am really sorry to say but the experience was not good. I had booked seats for 20 people almost 4 weeks before 21st December, 2018. While booking I specifically mentioned that the guests needed to be seated together and the floor manager promised me that they will join tables and arrange in such a manner that all the guests will be seated together. They also informed me that they can provide a complimentary cake as it is a special occasion and I agreed to their offer. The day arrived and we reached the place with 20 guests and informed them that the booking was done in the name of "Mr. T. Pandey". However, the staffs told me that some of the guests needed to sit at a different table and the family cannot sit together. I requested them by saying that it would be really great if you manage to join one extra table but they refused. Now, the situation is such that all the guests were standing for 10 minutes while they were busy arguing with me regarding the fact that they cannot join a table as it is not in their "hotel policy". I was so surprised to see this kind of unprofessional behavior from a so-called "reputed" hotel of Kolkata. If you really cannot make 20 people sit together you should have informed this earlier to me and trust me I would have booked somewhere else. And mind this, we had some really aged people as our  guests and they were all left standing while this woman kept arguing with me. She had the audacity to tell me that "We have a booking of 60 people and while we understand your concern we cannot help it". Wow. I really don't care if you have a booking for even 100 people. I booked 4 weeks back and you took my booking and promised me your services. If the authorities have so much problem and cannot manage to provide a single place so that 20 guests can sit together then please don't fool people and make false promises. Finally after 10 minutes they agreed to provide a single sitting place for 20 people. But alas! the mood was left bitter and our celebrations started on a bad note. The food was not bad, however, when you are taking Rs. 1400 per person for dinner buffet I expect better taste. However, food quality was satisfactory. Now, comes the second incident. <br/>While taking food from the Chinese live counter I ordered 3 stir fried prawns. Few minutes after these 3 portions of stir fried prawns were served, I ordered 2 plates more of the same dish. Now, the cook expressed his irritation to the guy who was taking the orders in front of the counter by saying that I could have given the order together. I was so surprised by this kind of rude behavior that too from a 5-star hotel cook. However, this time I didn't say anything as I didn't want to ruin my mood further. <br/>Also, I want to mention the fact that we were not given the complimentary cake.  Dear management, if you don't really want to provide a cake then don't falsely promise that you will. This is so unprofessional. We did not say a single word about this to the management as by now we were accustomed by their rude and unprofessional behavior. I guess the Seasonal Tastes team should take a course on professionalism and business ethics. I will think twice before recommending this place to anyone in the future.

Being from Calcutta I have seen the skyline change with upcoming and uber hotels/residences and have seen Westin - Rajarhat a few times, however, no I am an occasional visitor to the city. Today, I visited Westin around evening with a very close friend of mine and it was truly a premium experience - from the being escorted and welcomed to the service, the property itself and the amazing designs/atmosphere. Fist we went to the 10th floor to Bar @ Seasonal Taste. The view is astounding (its a must see). We were made to feel very welcome and the manager (Mr. Saurabh De) made sure we were well looked after. He was very kind and patient, we were asking quite a few things and he answered everything very very patiently. It did not feel like that we were visiting for the 1st time, it was great. After a few rounds, he also made arrangements for us to be seated at the poolside as we were quite excited to see that area as well. There as well Saurabh along with George took great care of us. The food was brilliant and so were the cocktails. All in all, this amount and quality of personal attention to guests at such busy establishments is rare these days. I can only congratulate the Westin Calcutta for the amazing staff they have and the true 5-star service. Be back soon, Cheers!

I know this is in bucket list of many food lovers. Just some quick tips for them.<br/>Don't ask the buffet menu as it changes everyday.<br/>Food is better in dinner as it is more costly than lunch.<br/>Food quality and ingredients are good but the taste is average.<br/>Go for the dahi vara, papri chat in the chat counter, they are really very good as the ingredients are far better than the roadside chat counter.<br/>Go for the fried rice in live counter, its far better than other rice items.<br/>Don't waste your time on those breads.<br/>Huge variety at dessert section but most of the cakes were same.<br/>The main things which made me give 4 instead of 5 is the taste, the taste is not that good. And they do not give welcome drinks to people in big groups untill they are asked. Also the service difference between groups and other people is noticable.<br/>*At the end most important thing- gst is 18%, so add it with the price written and there is a corporate discount also of 20%.<br/>Please go there once to enjoy the fine dine experience its really a very good ambience there.
Sobhika Subhadra Majumdar
The quality of the food was really good. The best part was that many kinds of cuisine were available in the buffet, be it Mughlai or Bengali or Continental. We went on a weekday buffet dinner and had a lovely experience.
Sudipta Kumar Chatterjee
Dinner buffet is damn good...went with my friends for dinner...all of us had a wonderful experience...Loved the ambience and especially the behavior of the staffs... Price is a bit too high...<br/><br/>
Aniruddha Sarkar
The restaurant located on the 10th Floor of the Westin Hotel in the heart of Rajarhat. The weekday buffet price is quite reasonable considering the spread they offer and the ambience. There are 3 live counters that includes a Mexican, Oriental and a Chaat counter. If you happen to grab a seat by the window, you are in for a treat. The breath taking view of Rajarhat along with the lip smacking food. The salad counter offers variety Including the option of tossing your own salad. The main course includes a choice of Oriental, Bengali, Mexican and Indian cuisines. The dessert counter will surprise and please your taste buds with the spread including fresh fruit, Black Forest and Chocolate gateaux. A must have buffet in town.<br/><br/>The only negative part is the service where the guys tend to stand near your table and tend to clear off the plates at the earliest. On both the occasions, i was asked whether they can clear the table even when i was in the middle of my lunch. The service could be better and thats why i would rate it 4 and not 5.
The Foodie Baba
Located at Biswa Bangla Sarani, on top of the 10th floor of THE WESTIN - Rajarhat, is Seasonal Tastes.<br/><br/>Rating -<br/><br/>Food : 4.5/5<br/>Ambience : 5/5<br/>Management : 5/5<br/><br/>First and foremost thing is that the food tastes really good and is also really "expansive", meaning vast. You get everything, almost anything you want, be it sizzling starters, or glistening noodles with large chunks of chicken in soya sauce gravy, be it cold cuts like hams, salamis, choice of cheese - young cheese like Brie to aged cheese like Parmesan. There is also a dedicated roasting section, a bengali food section, a separate bread section. And if you've have a sweet tooth then this place will be your Mecca. Has over 25 different desserts. :'D Now, that's a lot of food. They maintain the quality really up to the mark.<br/>Though i would like say that the starters were at room temperature, and few pieces were really cold, and not sizzling hot as starters should be. Apart from that the taste was really really good.<br/><br/>The ambience is really what you would except from a star restaurant. Its vibrant, spacious, uniquely light and has the most amazing view of the city through its glass view. You can't ask for more. The ambience is worth to pay a visit for.<br/><br/>But let me clarify the concepts a bit, it's not one of those places that you can visit quite often for a casual hangouts, party etc. It's sophisticated.<br/>Its expensive and it's justified. The food doesn't come cheap over here, and nor the does the ambience. Its a star facility. You need to be in a good attire, you should smell good and etc etc.<br/>No I'm serious. But its totally worth it, worth every buck that you're gonna spend. Trust me on this.<br/><br/>~~~ : : SPECIAL MENTION : : ~~~<br/>• The management stuffs, the waiters, the managers and the chefs all were so co-operative, so helpful and kind, that its one of the best i have came across.<br/><br/>• Also, the Roasting section, really knows their job. Thank you for dishing out some delicious food.<br/><br/>I would recommend everyone to pay a visit to this new beauty in the city, and be a part of the amazing experience.<br/><br/>People travelling from Southern parts of the city, for a better experience, you can book a Uber to Westin location, otherwise it will be a little trouble.<br/>:)<br/><br/>* Always here since birth of humanity to help the needy and the foodie. :D<br/><br/>
Jesmin Mallick
Taste is pretty much blunt of everything. The decoration and ambience is very nice. Though the buffet price is pretty high as compared to any other place.
Suchandra Ghosh
I chose my birthday party here on 1st December. Ambiance- Very soothing, location -Near Eco Park, food- nice, staff - welcoming. But I am disappointed because they did not arrange my celebration cake which I already told them on booking time. They assured me that complementary 500 gm cake can arrange on this day. After remembering them on that day after finishing our dinner, they could not arrange. We were waiting 15 min and then leave. Noone told me about that. My Birthday was spoil at last moment.
Ahana Chakraborty
I had my surprise birthday party here last week. Ambience- Very soothing, location - quite easy to locate, food- nice, staff - welcoming. Too good a place for great pictures. What we had? Check out the pictures.

Debmalya Mitra
Went to this place first time nice ambience with valet parking, so chill pill and drop ur car at the lobby, and had lunch buffet spoiled with choices I choose to go with continental today, would have been more happy if there were few pork dishes other than cold cuts...... was very pleased with politeness of Amarjit Singh and Subrata Das aka The continental Chef....will try to find excuse often to visit this place.....Needless to say the place have loads of deserts....triple thumbs up ....
Sree Parna
We went for a team lunch here on weekday. Nice place with great views. Food was so so. There was a large variety but taste wise it was ok. The live counter were good. Service is ok. If you ask for a fork or spoon you need request the same to 3-4 ppl.
Nikunj Agarwal
We stayed in this hotel for our anniversary celebration. Everyone working in this hotel were so warm and welcoming. Really liked the services and the hospitality. <br/>A very special thanks to the chef Anurag and his team for making our day all the more special by making special food and cake exclusively for us. <br/>Would like to recommend this Hotel to everyone. <br/>Thanks.
Vinay Agarwal
Amazing food and service.we visited on our anniversary n our day was made special by the special treatment n amazing food.must try stuffed mushrooms.lovely experience.would love to visit again with friends n family
Jayatasree Ganguly
The food was too good. I just loved the dessert section and the live counter.. the ambience was awesome..very spacious..we went for a team lunch from office for about 30 people,and we pre booked it a week ago..they provided the best sitting arrangement for us<br/>
Mamata Das
Lunch buffet spread was good with quite a few options to choose from. From mughlai to chinese and bengali to south curries, buffet was pretty laid out across the vast dining floor. The taste was good but could have been better. Biriyani tasted wonderful while the kebabs and stir fried too were succulent. Dessert was all about cheese cakes, malpua, gajar ka halwa, souffle shots etc. n was pretty decent. Rest of the food was ok. Decor of westin is pretty catchy while the service could have been a little better
Vinita Singh
Me and my husband went to thz restaurant last month and we are really surprised by the hospitality of people's in Westin. Specially I want to mention Ankit, the tallest guy of the restaurant. He had done whatever possible for him. Thanks to him and his team who had make our special day more special. Kudos once again to service team.<br/>
Sarasij Bhattacharya
Well this place was on my wishlist for a long time and finally visited here yesterday for a corporate team event. It is located in Rajarhat, opposite to the entrance of Eco Park.<br/><br/>We were warmly greeted with an amazing l at the entrance. We were escorted to our hall where we were having the dinner party. To be honest they had an exquisite variety of dishes. I have never seen such variety anywhere.<br/><br/>They had a section of sea food where they had fish, chicken, paneer, various types of fishes. Then they had a section of normal chicken starters like garlic chicken which was too tasty. Then they had chicken kababs, fish kababs, tandoori aloo. They had a good variety of salads like chicken salad, fish salad etc. Overall the starter section was good but nothing extraordinary.<br/><br/>Coming to main course which was pathetic to say the least. The biriyani had absolutely no taste, along with the mutton. The chicken was same too. Nothing was good in main course. They should really work on it.<br/><br/>Coming to deserts and that was the only thing which was the saviour. An amazing variety of deserts like tarts, caramel pudding, ice cream, sweete. 5 star for the desert section.<br/><br/>They also had a Chaat section along with a section of processed meat.<br/><br/>We received an appreciable amount of hospitality and great service. Another disappointing thing wad they had no soft drinks along with the food<br/>They should really work on that.<br/><br/>An overall nice experience but expecting a bit better response in terms of food the next time we come here!
Huzefa Forward
Very poor management for a 5- star hotel, tried to make a reservation but people were not interested to take bookings nor were responsible enough to inform if it was full, had to call twice to just to ask same thing again and again.
Sayanti Bose
Spread was excellent and food was really good. What disappointed us was the service. We ordered drinks and it was served after 3...4 reminders. Same happened for repeats. Cocktails weren't upto the mark. Moreover this restaurant had an 2 on 2 drinks offer for gold membership. When my husband asked for that complimentary drinks they denied it and didn't accept the offer.
Payal Gupta
Went there for there sunday brunch 25/11/2018. There was live keema kalegi pav and naan counter, pav bhaji live counter. Grill fish and prawns live counter, dimsum live counter, noodle and pasta live counter. I love there stir fry nonveg noodle. Best was keema kalegi pav. There was several starter my favourite was chilly chicken. The freshly baked buns taste heaven. Roast of the day pork was better than chicken coz i fell chicken was bit dry. All the starter taste well. Salad section was. Good. The live indian chat counter was also there. Soup i didn't try.i love there chicken Biryani and chicken butter masala as main course. Lasagnia was good. They have very selective items in main course. there was 35 international sweets/ desert and few Bengali regionals sweets. Most of themselves tasted well.lastly we had nariyal pani which was fresh. Ambience was good. They serve well. Plates were cleaned at regular intervals. Overall a good experience.one must try this place for some good food and memorable experience.
Subhajit
Great place for family dine. And very good place for project team dine.<br/>Good ambiance. Restaurant is in 10th floor. Very good view of Newtown.<br/>Plenty option of food, Chinese, continental, Bengali, Punjabi, Italian. Foodie like me can fall into seek if cannot resist to taste all the food.<br/><br/>Buffet is also not that much of cost considering the star hotel.<br/>Special mention: they have very good desert menu.<br/>One issue I found in their pasta counter. Cheaf needs to improve the right mixture of ingredients in pasta sauce. It might have too much all purpose wheat.<br/>Overall nice experience. Would love to go there and highly recommend for others.
Piya Das
The food is good. The desserts are great and we were happily spoilt with too many choices. The ambience and view was also amazing! The only thing for which I took away a point is the lack of Chinese and continental options, which were very few and limited mainly to veg items. Rest all is fine! Would definitely recommend.
Rajlakshmi (foodie_sinceforever2599)
In frame<br/>** It's a buffet. The starters were delicious. There were chicken reshmi kebab, crispy chilli baby corn, paneer kebab, smoked fish, a delicious chicken lasagna with a brilliant crust on top of cheese and egg.<br/>Moving on to the main course. The main course was not at all satisfactory. The biriyani may have seemed appealing apparently, but it tasted disastrous. The spices were overpowering, it did not taste like biriyani at all. The mutton and chicken side dishes were not good even. Overall the main course was an utter dissatisfaction.<br/>Moving on to deserts. The deserts were pretty delicious and included quite a lot of varieties.<br/>The overall ambience was good.<br/>**<br/>#FoodiesForLife
Siddhartha Das
I guess this is the best dinner spread in Kolkata in a sprawling restaurant. The number of veg and non-veg item was mind blowing. And you get a live counter too. Expect Western, Oriental, Indian and some Mughlai dishes in one single buffet, If you are a foodie, you will enjoy. I got some of the dishes I got in USA. Staffs were very cordial and helpful. We were looked after very well by James and George. Surely we will visit again.
Sourav Kundu
Life is full of irony right?☺<br/>As shot this below👇 picture from✈ during my Tripura trip this May, 2018 and surprisingly visited here this November,2018😄<br/><br/>So the reason to came here is to celebrate and give a grand treat to my younger brother for his #12thHappyBirthday🎂🎉<br/><br/>Well now let me come to my review part as the Brand name suggests it doesn't need any further introduction. Buffet was much spread, lots of dishes to try for😋 and most importantly total worth of money💳<br/><br/>Highly recommended to visit with your friends, family and dear ones as it will be worth it providing with majestic breathtaking views from it's large glass panes, detailed designing interiors and at last but not the least the food😍😘
Rajni Bharti
Very courteous ambience along with a great view to dine in. Starting with mouthwatering starters to yum filling main course you can enjoy a whole range of good food here.Best part you can enjoy the specialities of every cuisine. My only disappointment was with the desserts, although there is a wide range but couldn't satisfy my sweet craves. But to sum up an awesome awesome experience😊
Srabani Chatterjee
This place is very near to my house. So have gone there number of times. Had al a carte and buffet both. As all luxury dinning restaurants this one also have a huge buffet spread. Though i never have had there sunday brunch but as they keep so much in normal days so surely brunch will be loaded with more food. The staff is very well behaved as expected. And as it is near so not to say i will visit again nd again.
Buavisha Shah
I went to seasonal tastes yesterday and this was my 10th visit. Had taken my guests for dinner. As usual the ambience was great, the quality and the taste of the food was awesome.... Chef debayan and Chef Ravi went out of their way to serve us a sumptuous meal...... Saurabh managed my reservation very smoothly..... Last but not the least the service was outstanding.... Pinaki serviced us and he was very soft spoken and helpful... Thank you guys for making my evening so beautiful....
Indranil Biswas
Nice breakfast spread ( I went for breakfast only), great view, helpful and cordial staff (specially Amarjeet and Ankit). Good in quality and service.
Aarti Choudhary
The ambience is really good and enjoyed dining here. The staff was very helpful. Would recommend this place. The desert spread could have been better.
Saikat Sanyal
Awesome place to have a great time with family and friends for a dinner or lunch. Awesome environment excellent food. Food price reasonable according to the variety and quality but drinks very very costly. Lots of variety in dessert maincourse as well as starter too.
Soumyasree Chakraborty
The husband and I were celebrating a special day with a staycation at Westin and naturally this was the place to go for our meals. First and foremost, I would like to mention the courteous and friendly service that is warm but not intimidating. The chef and sous chef personally meets and greets guests for feedback. Then comes the view if you get a table near the glass wall side. The Sunday brunch with its huge spread deserves special mention. The grill variety and customisations will win you over. I also enjoyed the customised Chinese stir fries. The chaats and desserts were delectable. The dessert variety seemed endless. Special mention should be made of the fact that they have a commendable number of sugar free desserts — with diabetic family members, this is a win win for us.
Medhatithi Guha
Was there during the pujas... What a spread matched with equally good taste and above all their service.. I am most definitely coming back here.. (as I write this review, I am already booking a table for today :))
Aparna Bhattacharya
Loved their spread. Chef Ravi specially made Beef Stir Fry which wasn't there in the buffet spread. The dessert spread was so vast, couldn't try even half of them. Wonderful cheese collection. Also special. Mention to Sumana who was lovely. Will come back soon.
Debashish Dey
In my opinion, one of the best buffet menu you can have....also there was ongoing puja celebration at the time of my visit. They offered special bengali dishes...every varaity of fish was present....4 to 5 live counter were available...ambience was amazing....overall its a mind blowing package... special corporate discount is also applicable...
Priyanka Karmakar/ Thegirlacrossthetable
Probably the best buffet I had in quite some time. The ambience and interior decorations steal all your attention and not to mention their hallway that features one of the most brilliant views within a hotel itself.<br/>The staff is quite responsive and helpful. Now they had a hefty number of dishes.<br/>They also have three live counters which are Chaat counter, Wok Station and Italian station for grills and pasta.<br/>.<br/>Heading straight off to the dishes (Pardon me if I have missed out a few)--<br/>They start off with a welcome drink.<br/>Starters:<br/>1. Buffalo Chicken<br/>2. Peshwari Murgh Tikka<br/>3. Tawa Machchi<br/>4. Tandoori Aloo<br/>5. Malai Paneer Tikka<br/>6. Vegetable Manchurian Dry<br/>Main Course:<br/>1. 1 Veg and 1 Nonveg soup<br/>2. Steamed Rice<br/>3. Dal Makhani<br/>4. Gobi Adraki<br/>5. Paneer Butter Masala<br/>6. Lasooni Aloo Palak<br/>7. Braised Tofu and Vegetable in Soya Ginger<br/>8. Pyaz Aur Pudina ki Pulao<br/>9. Dhaba Dal Tadka<br/>10. Vilyati Sabz handi<br/>11. Sorse Begun<br/>12. Eggplant Snitzel with Tomato<br/>13. Spicy Potato Wedges<br/>14. Jhinge Posto<br/>15. Mutton Biryani<br/>16. Khade Masala ka Gosht<br/>17. Kosha Murgi<br/>18. Fish in Chilli Sauce<br/>19. Chicken Lasagne<br/>20. Soya Glazed Fish<br/>21. Barbeque Marinated Roasted Chicken<br/>22. Bhapa Mach<br/>23. Assorted Papads and Pickels<br/>24. Salads-both veg and nonveg variants<br/>25. Breads<br/>26. Selection of cheese and cold cuts<br/>27. Live Chaat Counter<br/>28. Live Italian Pasta and Grill Station<br/>29. Live Wok station<br/>Desserts:<br/>1. Malpowa<br/>2. Sandesh<br/>3. Ras Kadam<br/>4. Assorted Fruits<br/>5. Mango Mousse<br/>6. Chocolate Mousse<br/>7. Banana Mascarpone Slice<br/>8. Mango and Lemongrass Cake<br/>9. Poach Pear Crumble<br/>10. Berry Crumble Pudding<br/>11. Fruit Savarian<br/>12. Assorted Ice Creams and Toppings<br/>13. Passion Cherry<br/>14. Citrus Tart<br/>15. Sugar-free Pannacotta <br/>16. Kamla Bhog<br/>17. Paris Brest<br/>18. Nazakat<br/>.<br/>Honestly, I could not even try 70% of the total items and most of them were pretty nice. Their desserts are amazing and so was their main course. They lacked a bit when it came to the Chinese dishes and my mother didn't quite like the taste of the Biryani otherwise it was fine and I guess worth the price.<br/>.<br/>For more queries and information contact @thegirlacrossthetable on Zomato, Instagram or Facebook.

Deep Banerjee
Went for the first time, awesome place & ambience... Food quality was nice specially the dessert section OMG! so many to taste. It's was a special day for me & yes it became more special when we enter the floor was sharing our lunch with ATK footballers. Thank you very much for the wonderful experience.<br/>
Souparno Maity
Westin has a great ambience. The staff is quite friendly as well. However, the food is average. Dessert is good but starter and main course is average, well starter is below average. I feel the food is not upto the mark. Infact, I had better lunch experience in other places which costed lesser than westin.
Ayan Saha
I had a great lunch with my buddies yesterday. Ambience and arrangement was good. The view from 10th floor was mind blowing. Coming to the food, we opted for the lunch buffet @1178 inclusive of tax which i think a little over priced. According to food, Starter was not so good but main course and dessert section was just awesome. In overall it's a nice restaurant with good food.
Divy Pachori
Service was tooooo slow, it was worst actually.<br/>Food was Ok but not worth if you are getting it after Waiting for double time than necessary<br/>Please think twice before going there.
Anurima Biswas
We went there on sasti. Had their lunch buffet. To be very honest, there were a lot of options yet nothing was upto the mark... The starters were below average. Hated the main course. The only good thing about the buffet was the dessert section. Loved the brownie and the ice cream variations. That's it. I expected more from a place like Westin.
Mrittika Bhaumik
The Marriott brand being really close to my heart, I decided to give the buffet at Seasonal Tastes, The Westin Kolkata, a try, and mind you, I was blown away. The restaurant has an international feel to it, and being located on the 10th floor of the hotel, it gives an impressive view of the entire city, especially at night. Moreover, the staff is extremely courteous, and is always eager to please the visitors.
Indrajit Banerjee
The food was delicious and the arrangement was great.<br/>The executives Sumana ,Subham and Ankit were very helpful.<br/>The complimentary birthday cake also been provided by the restaurant.<br/>Don't forget to collect your coupons from Nearbuy app.
Anubhav Ghosh
Good restaurant with a nice view on the 10th floor of WestIn. Warm hospitality, good service, variety of tasty food, nice decor but I feel something is missing. Maybe it needs time.<br/>PS: Corporate discount is only available on Weekdays lunch only.
Sneha Saraogi
Went to this place on a Tuesday night. While making the reservation, I'd asked for the spread that they have for buffet & it was nowhere even close to what I was told when I went there. It was pretty disappointing since we were there to celebrate my husband's birthday. The mocktails were not good either. The only good thing about the buffet was the dessert spread. On the whole, it was a wrong choice of place for such a special occasion.
Sankhadeep Sen
This was the perfect place to celebrate the festive bijoya getogether. We loved the courteous service, ambiance, the view from the top and most importantly the scrumptious food. We had buffets for lunch each the every items in menu was awsome specially the continental items in starters and main course amongst all we mostly liked the heavenly desserts section. <br/>We loved every bit of out time here. I highly recommend Westin to foodies of town.<br/><br/>

Moumita Roy.
Awesome experience...Nice ambience... Brilliant food... Verity in menu... Specially deserts are too yummy... Just mouth watering...<br/>I went to celebrate my birthday there with my friends... They made my day 😊😊
Abhishek Das
Seasonal Tastes is surely one of the best buffet I have had in recent years. We visited on 18th October and enjoyed our time there with variety of dishes and ambience. The desserts section was too good. Only con would be that we asked for mock tails but at the time we were in (around 1.30 pm) only one type was available which we didn’t order. That being said the afternoon lunch was well spent and I am surely going there again...
Swati Gupta
We went there for the lunch buffet. The experience was rather disapointing, that is the service and quality of the food, especially the vegetarian portion.<br/>Although the spread was large, the variety of non-vegetarian cuisine available impressive, the vegetarian section was the let-down, along with the slow service. There was hair in the food, in a papad. My sister who was lucky enough to get this papad, lost her appetite after this. While the non vegetarian dishes in the main course were scrumptious, the vegetarian section was barely palatable ( Out of the fours of us who went, three are vegetarians). None of the vegetarian starters were up to the mark taste-wise. In the main course, the kadai paneer had a weird smell about it, the other vegetables were nothing to write home about. Dal makhni was the only saving grace, but then that needs to be eaten with bread. We ordered a garlic naan and butter naan, after waiting for 25 minutes and 2 reminders, we got neither but a flat read that the waiter was himself confused about, whether it was a naan or tandoori roti. They took it back and after another ten minutes, brought us the required naans.We also ordered panipuri at the live chaat section,which we received after thirty minutes and was again not edible, with the panipuris quite soggy. The staff seemed unconcerned about the delays and reminders. Honestly expected a better standard of service and taste from a place like The Westin, however we left feeling rather disappointed.
Sabyasachi Basu
It's been a while since I've been to a star hotel in Kolkata. On my first day back during Durga puja, we stopped at the Westin on the way back from the airport. The restaurant is on the 10th floor, and offers a nice view. Loved the ambience, especially the large atria and a huge face of Durga on the wall which spanned close to 10 floors (still not sure if that was temporary; I really hope not!). The spread was great, and the taste was brilliant. The only qualm I have is that they ran out quite often and some items were replaced and not replenished, which means I missed the chocolate mousse and the Topshe fry. But otherwise, a great restaurant.<br/><br/>PS: Sitting by the window during lunch might not be a great idea.
Aindreesha Barman
I recently visited the place with my family this dashami or dusshera to lunch. The place, ambience and staff is really the best and the food is good too. They have all the ranges from cold cut to bengali cuisine to gorge on. The best section of them is the desert! I love their desert section. The second best for me was the bengali pulao and mutton biryani. Truly hats off to the chef! Hope to visit the placw again. Good job guys keep it up 🙂
Madhurya Sarkar
The best place to hop in for a romantic date. I went there on Saptami for trying their Puja special buffet dinner with my boyfriend. Both of us has loved this place. Amazing staffs, decor, ambiance and food 👌🏻
Sukanya Mondal
A bit pricy but heaven for dessert lover. Their live counters are eye catcher. Fall in love with blueberry icecream .. salads are also very good .
Sabita Nandi
Midnight Navami..and the place to be was Seasonal Tastes, The Westin Kolkata. The ambience signified peace much away from the city crowd and we were greeted by Chef Abhay Pratap . He guided us to the best possible table which overlooked Eco Park . The view was amazing. He was polite enough to offer us the enchanting appetisers..the fish fingers..the kathi roll..the fried fish were all to dive in for ..He helped us to select our main course which was a lavish spread. We were delighted to have recieved such hospitality ..such adorable service that too at midnight.<br/>I would also like to mention the name of Chef Alok Parida who helped us to dive into some of the best deserts Seasonal Tastes had to offer.<br/>Overall it was a delightful experience to have dinner that too with such warm hospitality from both the Chefs .<br/>Lastly, I would like to thank Ms Annesha Ghosal,Hygiene Superviser,The Westin Kolkata, for inviting me there to experience such mouth watering spread .<br/>Thank You, Seasonal Tastes .It was really "an endless experience for me".

Sry to say that quality was too poor, why? Charge is not cheap , no such quality, spread is too less.<br/>Can you imagine no ice-cream in menu.<br/>Fish? What r those fishes ? Too stiff.<br/>It's a request don't drop the quality in such manner that it pinch so much in pocket.<br/>Beleive me any standard resturants serve much better taste food.
Dipankar Das
The options were huge with the staffs being very courteous. They are having the Bengali food festival and the cuisines were mainly Bengali dishes with wide variety of fishes. There were many options for veg as well and the live counters were just out of the world. Overall a satisfactory lunch buffet.<br/>Navami lunch sorted.

Awesome views from 10th floor, great choice of buffet spreadouts and nice and courteous staffs, totally cherished the experience after travellling 26 Km from Tollygunj

The buffet spread was unbelievably extensive. The quality of food, even in the rush of Durga Puja, was commendable. Especially, I liked the live fish counter. However, am uncertain whether it was a regular setup or was it specially arranged for Ashthami / Durga Puja. <br/>Sharing some captures from today’s experience. Overall, 5 stars for this 5 star.
Soham Ghosh
Onr of the best buffet in kolkata. Food were very tasty with a variety no of cusine. Ambience was very lucrative and panaromic view from 10yh floor is commendable. Staff and service was very much appreciable
Shruti Jain
Staff was polite but service was a bit disappointing. We requested for few dishes from the live counter to be served at our table which did not turn up even in the next half an hour. Needed another reminder till they finally arrived. Being the puja season focus was on the fish offerings so being a vegetarian I felt the options were limited. Seemed a bit unfair as the price was the same whether veg or non-veg. The wok counter served very bland noodles. Nothing in the buffet really amazed us in terms of taste. However, there was no complaint with the dessert buffet. It had a great variety of stunning looking and delicious desserts. An overpriced meal. 1 star for the staff courtesy + 1 star for the desserts.

This was my second visit to Seasonal Tastes. First time we opted for Buffet and our experience was satisfactory, it was nothing great but nothing went wrong too. <br/><br/>We visited Westin with 5 family members on 11th October Night around 1030 PM<br/>Most of tables were unoccupied and hence the server/host provided us with the table we were comfortable with. <br/><br/>The A-la-carte menu was served to us.  We were shocked to find that there were barely any options in Starters and Main Course in Vegetarian section.<br/>We ordered for Paneer Tikka in starter and we asked for Sauted Mushroom which was not in Menu.<br/>The Paneer Tikka was too salty and the Sauted Mushroom was satisfactory.<br/>The Main Course Menu again did not had much options to  choose from in Indian Section. Only Dal Makhani and Kadhai Paneer to choose from. As we already had the Paneer in starter we did not wanted to order it again. The Host said that they can make Mix Vegetables for us which was again not in the menu. We asked the host that we wanted all our Breads crisp. The host said that though they can make Tandoori Roti crisp but they cannot make Naan crisp. <br/><br/>The Dal  Makhani and Mixed Vegetable served to us were cold. The dishes were not even warm forget about piping hot. The Breads were not crisp. The Naans were flabby and chewy. We had to call the manager and manager took back all the dishes and breads and got them re cooked.  Dal was served hot and tasted better but the same cannot be said about Mixed Vegetables. Breads were better but not again perfect. Because somehow some of the breads smelt like burnt. We were served with Mishti Doi and Cheesecake as complimentary. The desserts were nice.<br/>In billing portion we were billed for Fresh Lime Soda when we did not order any single beverage. On bringing this to notice we were presented with fresh invoice with corrections made.<br/>It was one of our worst experiences ever and wanted to give Nil stars in the review but there is no such option on Zomato.
Tanmoy Adhikary
Each and every food is very good. The best part is Live kitchen. Will be there definitely once again. Staffs were gentle. Price were correct. The best was the desert section
RATNADIP DUTTA
One of the best buffet spreads in Kolkata. The experience of Westin was extremely good. The food from the begging till the end including starters, continentals and the desserts were really delicious and awesome. The behaviour of the staffs was really nice and they were also cooperative. The total ambiance was extremely marvelous. And the last but not the list my friend chef Saikat Sarkar his welcome and hospitality was mind-blowing. We will surely visit again.
Agnivo Das Barman
Awesome food just loved it...Special mention about George and Subham who were always there to serve us with a smile throughout...Thanks a lot for the great service will visit again..😊😊😊

Tried their Sunday lunch buffet. With an unmatched spread this place is a treat for the taste buds and to top it the hospitality is great... what more does a foodie want!? <br/><br/>While I felt that their Italian section and dessert section (Chocolate section to be more specific) were the best, the other exciting part was the unlimited cocktails (you could choose between 7 variants for each refill) to wash them down. It just worked as the icing on the cake. We tried Bacardi Watermelon Mojito, Orange Daiquiri, Bacardi Punch and Malta Orange & Vanilla. The last one was a damper. The other three were very good but for me Bacardi Punch was the winner!<br/><br/>Though the cold cuts and salad section of JW Kitchen at JW Marriott in Kolkata is better but the grill section here is amazing! When you will see the variety of seafood and meat marinated and put on display for you to choose from and place the order for grilling or getting them pan fried you will be floored. It is a treat particularly for the fish lovers - I went their on September 30, 2018 and there was more than 9 variety of fish marinated and kept ready for live cooking. Bombay-duck fry was the specially of the day and it was oh-so-good! <br/><br/>Again, JW Kitchen, I feel has more variety of desserts but it is the section dedicated to chocolates which wins the case for Seasonal Tastes. The chocolates are yum and would remind you of the chocolate stores in Belgium... slurp! <br/><br/>Even the pasta section was amazing.... The only thing I disliked was the waffle. Even though they made the waffle in front of me it was not at all crispy and a huge let down. And that is the reason why I would not give this place full marks. <br/><br/>Tastefully done interior, breathtaking view of the Eco Park from the restaurant on the 10th floor and above all the a super yummy buffet spread makes this a must go destination. While they can work and improve on there waffles, I have another suggestion - add some Chutney in the Indian section. How can you imagine Indian food without Chutney!
Debolina Dutta
A fine classy dining it was.. great ambience.. well decorated.. went for a dinner with my loved one. It was a great experience. There was a special Spanish buffet for us. A huge variety of delicacy in Spanish, mughlai & Bengali was served. Tried most of it but couldn't taste everything. Food was good specially the dessert. Dessert decorations was superb. Keep it up team Westin.
Debali Mukherjee
Went here today for lunch.Ambience was good.Decor was nice.Staff was courteous but service was slow.<br/>Tried their lunch buffet.It consisted of a salad section,cheese and cold cuts section,live counters,starters,main course and a lavish dessert spread.It doesn't include any drinks however. Food was good.Overall a good experinece.
Jayant Dugar
Seasonal Tastes presents the most lavish & scrumptious buffet in town.Though very expensive its worth paying a visit over here.The best thing I liked out about Westin is that it has only one restaurant with all options at one place.The place is a throwback to the dishes that we have all grown up drooling over. The savoury and an exclusive menu unleash the born appetite in you.A brief of what we had – <br/>1) Starters – The paneer tikka and spicy potatoes tasted fine (4/5)<br/>2) Main Course – Chana Kulcha was good.Kulcha was plain which I personally didn’t liked it.Khowsuey was amazing.Biryani was yum and Gazar Halwa was good also (4/5)<br/>3) Salad Section – Plenty of items to choose from (4/5)<br/>4) Chinese Sections – Yummy (4/5)<br/>5) Dessert Section – This is the USP of this place and it really won my heart.Around 10-15 desserts were there and most of them tasted amazing.They has also have sugar free options (5/5)<br/>6) Local Sections – They had tried to provide most of Calcutta Classics (4/5)<br/>7) Live Puchka & Litti Counter – Fine (4/5)<br/>8) Ice Cream Section – They have regular scoops only(though tasted good) but lacked innovation (3/5)<br/>9) Cold & Cut Section - Didn’t Try<br/><br/>Service was fine.<br/><br/>P.S. - The splash of colours in their decor as well as the food is hard to miss.Make most out of desserts.
Abhirup Dutta
Nice place. Good Food. Good Taste as well. Buffet spread is more than you can probably taste. Biriyani is worth mentioning about. Light and very tasty. And the favourite part- the huge collection of desserts. Lipsmacking. The tart and blue berry cheese cake was among the best that I have ever had.<br/>Caution: Sweet tooths might stay back there forever. Haha.<br/><br/>Overall: 4/5. Definitely worth a revisit.
Ankur Modi
Ambience : very nice and calm, with enough gaps between tables as well so Noone to trouble you much with chit chats.<br/><br/>Price : very reasonably priced for a buffet lunch at a 5 star hotel<br/><br/>Starter : choice of 3 veg and non veg starters, baby corn, paneer Tikka and malai broccoli. Very nicely cooked and tasty. (a scope of improvement here, they keep starters in buffet itself, starters should always be instantly cooked and served)<br/><br/>They had some live counters as well, vada pao, 4 types of chats, Wok counter.<br/><br/>There was a continental section as well serving cannelloni and a baked potato dish.<br/><br/>Salad counter had an extensive spread and hell lots of options.<br/><br/>Hot n sour soup - very tasty and veggies nicely chopped.<br/><br/>Main course : full course of Indian dishes and veggies were there, with choices of rice and breads. Variety of pickles, papad, raita, biryani etc. Plus they were also serving traditional Bengal dishes.<br/><br/>Now comes the icing in the cake : the dessssssssertttttssss: slurp :-). With atleast 20-25 plus options for starter including of mix of cheese cakes, pastry, traditional Bengal Sweets, 6 flavors of ice cream, and many more. Each and every item had a uniqueness and very tasty.<br/><br/>Staff was very courteous and always available to take care of our needs instantly.<br/><br/>I'll say it was a very pleasant experience and they make it a point to.
Mahi Kaloya
For those who want to get a luxury feel and a calm atmosphere with uber rich decor....then this is the one❤<br/>Was on my wishlist for soo long...finally visited and came out with a big smile....after being toooo much satisfied with the amazing hospitality they render,the ambience is top notch,ordered veg sweet corn soup in starter which was just too good.Among the north indian dishes, paneer butter masala,masala kulcha,steamed rice and pineapple raita were super tasty.Obviously you wont be dissatisfied with the kind of presentation and service as this place is self reviewing❤ Mustt mustt visit❤
Krishanku Bose
Went to Seasonal Taste with colleague for quarterly buffet dinner. It was a lavish arrangement starting veggies to sea food. Please visit and enjoy the delicacies with warmth of behaviour from the staff. High recommended would be the live kitchen where you can order prawns chicken and other items as well. Main attraction would be the sea food sections with oysters and squid.<br/><br/>Enjoyable and wonderful
Simran Bamalwa
Westin is undoubtedly a great place to enjoy luxury dining. Loved the services and staffs were too polite. Tried their Lunch buffet today which aas good. From starter to desert they had kinda great variety. But I felt dessert section wasn’t that great as every dessert was made by cream and they have a great varieties but every dessert is made by cream. I felt for dessert section they should add or change stuffs. Brownies, cheesecake and etc should be added. Totally worth it but except dessert section.
Priyanka Mondal
This place is lit. 🔥<br/><br/>Bumped into this place with my best friend.<br/>Located near eco park gate no. 3 (beside the mishti hub) , New Town.<br/><br/>I really loved this place.<br/>The view from seasonal taste is amazing.<br/>I still remember the view from the 10th floor when it was pouring down heavily. It was spectacular. I just enjoyed that moment a lot.<br/><br/>We had variety of kababs , chats , poochkas , salads, biriyani , mutton , desserts and many more.<br/>Special mention is the desserts section. It can blown away u mind. It looks amazing , it tastes amazing. Just true bliss.<br/><br/>Service was good too.<br/><br/>A great day.<br/><br/>Highly recommended.<br/><br/>Looking forward to it.<br/><br/>Thank you , team.<br/>💓<br/><br/>
Priyadarshan Bhattacharya
Got there on 3.10.18 , on my spouse's birthday.They arranged a table with a nice view. Wont rant abt the same old legends of starters, main course and particularly the dessert being one the best in the town. I loved d stir fried rice noodles with veggies, squid and prawns. Salad section with its unique wide spread, specially the avocado & prawns. The salmon or tuna cold cut i missed(not available). The american counter was too good, the hot dog was exquisite, the susage was fresh and melted inside mouth.The freshly baked and the grilled items were also top notch. The pizza slice tasted average, but loaded with toppings.<br/>The Indian and bengali delicacies were remarkable, specially the sorshe potol and sorshe mach.<br/>Dessert section need not be mentioned since I cannot put it down in mere words, those were art at its best.<br/>Now for the hospitality was good but hv space for improvement,as I hv seen better, each table must be attended properly.<br/>A well spent evening and fine dine experience.<br/>Will re visit soon.
Tanisha Das
Last month we decided to try buffet at westin and taste their food. The place was very beautiful and decorated. As we chose for dinner buffet we were extremely dissapointed by their choice of menu.. they were very less variety specially on main course, they had 3-4 dishes for starters and their were lots of cold salad which i was not a fan of.. their main course only had 2-3 options 2 chicken preparation and one biriyani dish and steamed rice and also their food did not taste something great but though their dessert menu was huge and specially the red velvet cake was mouth watering and super soft. I would highly recommend them to increase their quality of food and menu.
Shubham Bhattacherjee

Last saturday we visited The Westin, Kolkata.On that day the #HeroIslLeague was kicked off.Unknowingly we planned to give a visit to Westin for lunch buffet and we met the ATK squad.<br/><br/>Now coming to food, it was just heaven for foodies like us, who try to find buffets which could include as many different cusines as they can.We started with salad section which was quite huge.We found few salad dishes interesting- Chicken hawin salad(3.5/5), Prawn salad(5/5) and fruit salad(5/5).Also they had few other options like egg salad(3.5/5) and dahi vada(5/5).<br/><br/>Starters(3.5/5)- They had 3 non veg starters- chicken kebab(2.5/5), chicken wings(3/5) and fish makhmali(3/5).In veg starters they also had 3 types- cheese balls(3.5/5), broccolli in mustard sauce(4/5), paneer tikka(4/5).To be very honest, the starter section was average which not expected from a group like Westin.<br/><br/>Live counters(4/5)- They also had 2 live counters.One is for pasta and the other one is for noodles.It was our bad luck that on that day the pasta counter was closed, may be due to the extra pressure of maintaining standards in front of the ATK team.We ordered one bowl of mixed noodles(4/5) and one chicken noodles from the live station.I must say they had inckude a lot things in mixed noodles, but I found it bit oily.<br/><br/>Main course(4/5)- They really had a pretty large section for main course.In veg dishes they had sabji biriyani(4/5), dhaba dal, dal makhni(3/5), aloo palak lasooni,paneer butter masala(4/5), gobi adraki(3.5/5) any many more dal items papad.In non veg they had mutton biriyani(5/5), mutton rogan josh(4.5/5),chicken masala(3.5/5). Guys, this is not over yet.It was just the list of Indian dishes.They also had a section of continental dishes which includes grilled fishes(2.5/5), veg dishes etc.<br/><br/>Deserts(5/5)- This is the last section but not the least, infact this is the biggest section among all.They had almost 30+ desert items where 5 around were Indian deserts and the rest were western deserts.Both Indian and western deserts were pretty good in taste.I didn't found any lack of taste or scope of improvement required.They also had 3 types of ice cream.Those were also good in taste.<br/><br/>I would like to request the management to include a mocktail or hard drinks in the buffet section, which will complete the full course buffet.

Was here at The Seasonal tastes at Westin for the Sunday Brunch.<br/>The food from the beginning till the end including starters till the desserts everything was really yummy.<br/>The desserts served as a cherry on the cake.<br/>

Situated on the 10th floor of the hotel the restaurant provides you a nice view of Rajarhat area. Though we tried to book seats in advance for lunch the number was busy all the time. However, on arriving they arranged seats in the lounge area for us. They have a huge spread in the lunch buffet ranging from continental to kebabs, bengali to chinese, salads to cheeses. Obviously it was not possible to try all the items. Some of the dishes were impressive some of them were just okayish. They also have a huge variety of desserts. They also gave 20% corporate discount in the bill. So it was quite a good deal. You can visit here to enjoy the five star dining experience once.
Sanjit Kumar Chatterjee
Having eaten in many buffets and being from the culinary world visited today for their Sunday Brunch Buffet..The Booking for the buffet was a bit painstaking mainly because I had to call up few times to properly convey my message and to understand the seating arrangement and buffet details.Nevertheless visited..The path towards the entrance can be made a much better keeping in mind this is a premium hotel chain.Inside the hotel is beautifully conceptualized and the huge Ma Durga carving on the walls is a treat to the eye.Seasonal Tastes is on the 10th Floor.Coming to the buffet itself..The maitre'd and other staff greeting were very cordial in seating me and introducing me to the buffet itenary..Spread is really big..Varying from Continental to Mexican to Live Fish Counter to Live Pasta Counter to Live Kotthu Parathas ,naans,parathas made..Phuckas,Cheeses,Cold Cuts..Varying desserts from Bangali items and Pastries,Mousses,Ice creams the spread literally has a lot of cuisines covered.Gravalax mentioned in Zomato Brunch itenary was missing from the menu.Stuffed Lamb tasted more like Mutton..Porchetta was chewy and the pork skin had hardened up as it was sitting for long..American Bbq could hve been better.It was a pleasant experience overall.
Sayan Dutta
The Spanish food festival is worth a mention..the taste of Spain is now on our plates just sitting in kolkata. The experience was lovely starting from the hostess desk till the final adieu. The warmth and hospitality is the key which makes guests return to the same dining places again and again inspite of having so many other options in the city. And seasonal tastes has the key. The food was lovely specially the churros and the paella. The behavior of George.. Who was allocated for my table was lovely. He ensured that there is not even a single drawback to the perfect dining experience. I applaud him with my heart out. Keep up the good work George. Will be hoping to visit my place again.. The word mine is mentioned coz I have seen this place from the brick and mortar days the reason being me one of the pre-opening food and beverage operations member So this place holds a special place in my heart. Will be looking forward to many more festivals and new cuisines in the future. <br/>A big thumbs up 👍👍👍
Arpita Mukherjee
today, we visited this place for team lunch. variety of options in dessert really steals the show.<br/><br/>love the starter.. live counters are also good. I tried keema pao, chicken noodles... they are good.<br/>staffs are well behaved..<br/>
Sucharita Samajdar
Absolutely offering a huge rate of buffet with a huge Mexican live counter,and unlimited deserts in there menu with a happy stuff as well so if you are lucky you can also meet team kkr ATK there as I was lucky enough
Sudipta Sarkhel
Had the opportunity to try both their Lunch and Dinner Buffet on two different occasion.  The spread is quite vast and the food is very tasty. Indian Food. Worth mentioning is their Rajasthani delicacies that they laid in the Dinner buffet, Dal, Baati, Churma, Laal Maas....It was all fab....Also the Chicken Biryaani was flavourful and tasted amazing. <br/><br/>I happened to visit this place today, and they are running a Spanish Food Festival.Though the Spanish food spread is for Dinner, the Chef was kind enough to serve us the famous Paella. Though it was not meant for my taste buds, but it was well presented and tasted good.<br/><br/>The ambience of the place is worth mentioning, as you get a great view of the Kolkata skylline from their big windows, and the restaurant has bright interiors. Service was smooth.<br/><br/>For people with a sweet tooth, they produce fresh and tasty Indian sweets from their own kitchen and their dessert section is long, featuring different kinds of Indian Sweets, Different flavoured Mousse, Fresh fruits.....Oh its endless.  <br/><br/>Great place to visit with family and friends.
SouVik Sur
When it comes to ambience and feel...like all other star rated restaurants, they are great. Right from the moment you step in till you step out, you are bound to be in love with the aura and aesthetics of tbe place. Coming to food - nothing special, esecially keeping in mind the prices. Food is good, but the only reason I would love to visit this place again would be for its abience.
Indranil Mukherjee
Loved the buffet spread. Absolutely fantastic preparations. No complaints at all food wise.<br/>But I feel the staff behaviour might be better. For a Restaurant of such reputation, staff behaviour should be more toned down.<br/>All good except that.
Sayantan Bose
So after a lot of good words all around, finally visited The Westin to try their buffet.... It was priced at 1199 and since we were from a corporate, got a 20% discount on that.... The hotel is a boutique hotel and is beautiful which has about 30+ floors, the coffee shop being on the 10th floor.... The lifts are in capsule model and see through which is an experience in itself...<br/><br/>Coming to the buffet now, it was well spread out.... There are lots of veg options as well.... Indian, continental, oriental, cold cuts and a huge dessert section..... While you can't taste everything in such wide spread buffets, I still tried quite a few and all we're worth, specially the chicken roulade and the fish cake.... The staffs were ever helpful and attentive.... While the location is at a corner of the city, at that pricing, it's a steal deal everyday of the month.... Absolutely recommended....
Manas Maity
No doubt the Ambience is really good the hotel is very good.... Food is mostly Continental... You will enjoy the food if you like Continental....<br/><br/>Hospitality it's not that good.... Not very professional like any other five stars... We had a leadership dinner there don't have a very good experience... The staff needs to be much more professional....
Sneha
<br/>Visited the place this weekend to check out as I heard about it lot. We strongly recommend you try out the quaint restaurant as it certainly lives up to its expectations. Quality of food is very tasty.
Shiris
I visited this restaurant. Taste is not as good as the ratings. Of course, the taste was amazing and the service was wonderful, I would love to visit again. Loved it.<br/>
Sayan Nandy
The spread was immense, food was really good and service was excellent. Really appreciate the team for their hospitality and courteousness. The ambience was great as well.
Pia Dutta
Visited this place with my friends and was happy to see the spread. We opted for lunch buffet. There were a lot of items. We tried to cover almost everything. The desserts section is huge. There were two live kitchen. One for south Indian dishes & one for the Chinese. Interesting things is that one will get few of the Bengali delicacies.<br/>We enjoyed most of the food items. The place is perfect for a get together.<br/>Staffs were no need to say very well behaved & cordial.
Unmesh Chakraborty
The best buffet spread this city has to offer, hands down. The Sunday Brunch lives upto its hype, truly. The widest variety of starters and main courses I've seen, having superb flavours and sizeable quantities; with chefs promptly cooking your orders within minutes in front of you was extraordinary.<br/>The dessert section is indeed the largest in Kolkata, and nothing tasted less than awesome.<br/>You name it, and they have it here, and with lovely songs sung live by a gentleman, the entire experience was certainly top-notch.<br/>Till next time. :)
Poulomi Sarkar
I visit westin for dinner buffet today and we loved the food and the ambieance.the restaurant is on 10th floor and the view is really good. It was a memorable dinner for me made by Ankit and Hrishikesh who took really good care of me and my friend.they were really friendly and helpful i would like to thank Ankit,Hrishikesh and sidharth for a great experience
Mainak Maitra
A wonderful place with good food and great staff.<br/>Definitely one of the best places in town for buffet..<br/>This place won't give you a chance to complain.. Right from the superb starters, to great live counters and massive spread of desserts... Its a place one would always love to come back..<br/>
Jit Yit
Visited this hotel today for lunch. After a charming welcome, as we entered the place, a big surprise awaited  in as much as the dining area was nearly packed to capacity which is surprising for a 5* hotel. Perhaps that attests to its popularity.<br/>The ambience was very nice, especially if you got a side seat.<br/>As for the food, there is not much to complain - variety to taste. The starters were tasty. The main spread is perhaps one of the best. From South Indian to Bengali to Chinese,from breads to salads to chaats and phuchka, the items were aplenty.And the icing on the cake was the desert section. From fruits to bengali misti and rabri to mouse, you have it all. And ice-cream of six varieties completes the story. I bet, hardly anyone can complete a serving of each of all the items. I could barely taste half of  them.<br/>You cannot ask for more at this price in a 5* hotel.
Pritam Roy
A wonderful experience with lots of variety ... One can lost into the deserts and can find himself in a homely cuisines ... No matter what, having lunch in a skytower is always a splendid one
Shubhankar Ghosh
Stationed at the centre of Kolkata's IT Core, this restaurant is by far the best buffet i had yet. <br/>1. Let's talk about the ambience. The view from the tables is spectacular. If you keep the blinds open, you get a fab view of Chinar Park area. If you pull the papery blinds down, it turns into a "hand-drawn landscape". Needless to say, it's beautiful2. The spread is probably the largest you can get in Kolkata. The items were numerous, cooked to perfection and well placed for easy navigation. There were 2 live counters, one for noodles and one for pasta. Being a cheesaholic, I obviously took the pasta- what surprised me though, was the choice of pasta; i expected spaghetti, penne, maybe linguini,- definitely not fairfelle. The other live counter was chinese noodles, and they had udon noodles too. I tried to use chopsticks, with embarrassing results. The dessert counter was sumptuous and diverse.3. The staff was perfectly hospitable with their politeness and punctuality.<br/>All in all, this is a place where everyone should dine at least one. You won't be needing any motivation or recommendation to return there
Sagnik Dutta
We planned to visit this place since April, and we finally visited there in the month of August. We all know that Westin is one of the best restaurants in Kolkata, and it should be. There were so many items to choose from, that one will get surely confused, which one to choose n which not to. They serve sea food with veggies or noodles whatever you want. Westin is well known for it's dessert section. Believe me guys, keep 30% of your stomach space clear for the dessert part, otherwise you'll surely miss some of those sweet dishes.
Sourav Saha
Had a team lunch here recently. The restaurant is on 10th floor of the hotel. The outside view is fantastic as well as the interior and decor.<br/><br/>The buffet has an Indian snack section that I gave a miss. The continental section had assorted cold meats and cheese. I tried few hams with dijon mustard. Those were OK.<br/><br/>Next, I moved to the salad section. It had a cold beef salad which I tried. It was OK.<br/><br/>In the starters, they had several veg and non veg combinations. I checked out masala fish, reshmi kabab. The masala fish tasted nice but the kabab was average.<br/><br/>They had a Punjabi cuisine counter that served Amritsari Macchi and Punjabi Curry (not sure what that meant). I asked for a plate of Amritsari Macchi. A single small fried fish ball that matched the size of a ping pong ball arrived. It tasted just like the masala fish they had it in the starter.<br/><br/>I moved to the continental main course and tried two varieties of fishes - one in a white sauce with veggies like bell peepers, zucchini etc. and other one was, I thought, a pan fried version of fish. Both tasted average.<br/><br/>Next, moved to the Asian section that had Thai, Bengali, Mughlai and North Indian cuisine. In the Thai, I tried chicken in red sauce which was nice. The biriyani, dal gost tasted average. Alu Posto was good. The Sorse Fish or Fish in Mustard Sauce is absolutely bad. The fish was fried to the extent that it had almost become a chewing gum.<br/><br/>The dessert section had many mousse, cakes, custard, puddings, fruits, Indian sweets etc. I did not try the Indian sweets. The pudding was good. But all the 2-3 mousse I tried had such an increased level of sweetness that even the guys known for sweet tooth in our team had to fight through those.<br/><br/>Overall, the experience of food was below average. I would have given a rating of 2 had it not been for the excellent hospitality of the support stuff. They tried their best but the house cooks, line chefs let them down.
Arnab Paul
One of the best buffet lunch the team could have wished for. Amazing starters along with a wide variety of deserts and live counters.<br/>Decoration is beyond comments and so are the staffs.always ready to help and great gestures by Evana and ankit.
Chandrima Ganguly
Whatever i say about this place is less<br/>The best buffet i ever had and the staffs are so friendly and the food options wer never ending and cooked to perfection..they have 2 live counters endless to food to eat from...a wide variety of deserts and has jain food option too...

The Food Therapy
Had the most wonderful evening at The Westin. The ambience was amazing and the food was mind blowing. The staff was extremely polite and affectionate. Made sure we had everything we needed, got us their specialities too. Very warm and loving. <br/>The taste of their food can not be over-emphasised. It was simply mind blowing. I had four servings and then two rounds for the dessert. They have a huge variety of dishes for their buffet. <br/>More updates to come soon. :)

I will be as objective as possible while writing this review that I have neglected to write for some time. Around a month ago I went for dinner with a few friends to seasonal tastes at around 1130 pm on a Sunday. I ordered the slow cooked sea bass and the shrimp risotto. We waited for around half an hour (possibly more) for our order. Shortly thereafter our waiter came to our table to ask if we were sure about our order since it would take 20 mins to prepare. We waited for 40 mins for our waiter to enquire about the 20 minute order time.<br/><br/>We complained to the manager who told us that we'd get a feedback call in a few days. Well it's been over a month and I haven't heard from anyone. Appalled at the service quality standards of the Kolkata Westin compared to Delhi. Definitely not visiting again.<br/>

Seasonal Tastes at The Westin Kolkata Rajarhat is one of the best place in Kolkata to have premium buffet. Went there for dinner buffet. Excellent ambience, very good and helpful staff and above all very reasonable price. Food was the Star of the evening. I cannot name all the dishes here as there were plenty of them. From live food counters to bengali cuisine, chaat, puchka and jhalmuri corner, cold cuts, separate salad corner, north Indian food corner, Wok Special live counter and the dessert corner. The dessert corner had multiple varieties of pastries, mousse, pies, tarts, ice creams and a special local sweets corner (Bengali sweets). The Bengali sweets corner could have been better as it contained some very cheap and regular quality of sweets. The salad section had plenty of different veg and non-veg varieties. I specially loved their wide varieties of fishes.<br/><br/>Situated on the 10th floor, it gave an excellent view of New Town including Eco Park provided you visit there in the day time.<br/><br/>Overall a highly satisfying experience.<br/><br/>Ambience: 5/5<br/>Service: 5/5<br/>Food: 5/5<br/>Value for money: 5/5

Starting from the basics... ambience of the place to the staff greetings,their behaviour... Everything was so amazing... In a buffet one would need to know all the variety and type of food he/she is going to have... Their staffs did a orientation of food for us and let us know what are the things available and what all we can try. They even suggested the chef's special for the day. Now coming to the food... It was spot on... Starting from the salads to the starters , street food section, freshly baked breads,main course and desserts... The wide variety of desserts were to die for... The coffee cheesecake is a must. All in all it was more than a worthy place. A MUST TRY 😃😃

I went for lunch buffet Today(03/09/2018) and my experience is awesome. Their courteous staff, ambiance are overwhelming. Coming to the food part, foods deserve 5 star. I liked most Hyderabadi Dum Biriyani, Fish Pie. Nothing to say about dessert, desserts are heavenly. They have local delicacies is deserts also. I felt very good to see local delicacies everywhere. They just deserve 5 star. And special thanks to Chef Rudradip Sen.

Aindrila Sur
Didn't find a single thing worth complaining or even questioning. Very well behaved staffs and spot on ambience!<br/>Coming to food.. there were so many options that we couldn't even opt the Indian section.<br/>It had variety as well as the food tasted yummy!<br/>Will definitely visit again!
Siddhartha Satpathy
Lot of variety in buffet and taste is amazing. The view from tenth floor is also pretty nice. Complete Kolkata skyline along with Howrah bridge is very picturesque. Thanks for hosting us.
Devadyuti Roy
Beautiful food. Beautifuly awesome ambiance.<br/>Really friendly and helpful staff.<br/>The food cooked by Sous Chef Ravi Shankar Mani was so delicious and well plated.

Tanimul Bari
Best place to spend time in. At the 10 th floor you feel like at the top of the world with the best view of the city of joy. Food is just awsome. And the service just touched my heart. Special thanks to Mr.Subhankar Roy and Mr.Amit Singha for providing the bestest service ever. Good job mates! 🙌🏻 keep it up Westin! Kudos!
Soumyajit Datta
The food here was too good. The ambience , the behaviour of the staff, the food quality , the variation were really upto the best standards. The dessert section was extra ordinary. Any day I vote this to be one of the finest buffet in town considering placing like BBQ nation and JW Marriott in mind. One thing there should be a welcome drink which will have a soothing effect on the food consumed ☺️
Poulami Sinha
Food is nice and ambience is very nice.service is also good.huge varieties of food.decorated beautifully.must visit the swimming pool,a very beautiful place to spent time.the hotel is really in a prime location
Santanu Mukherjee

This restaurant is located in the 10th floor of the Westin Kolkata rajarhat! My husband took me there for a surprise birthday dinner! I was taken to my surprise to see the array of dishes present in the buffet menu. I was really impressed when the chef himself wanted to walk us through the buffet for the night!!!! Sometimes that personal touch creates a lot of excitement. Also that walk helped us to check list our favorites from the menu so that we don't miss anything. <br/><br/>Coming to the buffet there was a salad (both veg and non veg) section, lebenese counter, jhalmuri and street food corner ( serving phuchka, dahi vada, mathri, Chaat) and cold cuts! The main food section had international station, a live Mongolian counter, Chinese, north Indian and Bengali counters. My favorite was the international section were they served scrumptious beek steak, mashrooms, muscles etc. Then came the desserts..... Gawd!!!! At least 20-30 varieties of cakes, pastries, pies, muffins, tarts and what not!!!!! <br/><br/>Taste was of the food was quite descent!!!! I loved the steaks, mushroom starters and all the desserts I could eat! <br/><br/>The best part was the chef humbly telling us... " Ma'am please let us anything that u would like to eat if that is not in the buffet!!" <br/><br/>Westin!!!! All thumbs up to you efforts to make my day beautiful! Thank you!

Various types of foods with average taste and good ambiouns.main course Indian section is good and rest are avarage only.Desert is some what managable.
Soma Rani Payra
Being in Westin for a dinner gives you expectations from their food and service.well,i can say I was not disappointed.Their wide spread buffet offers you delicious meal.the food contained Indian dishes as well as some of continental options.I mostly fell in love with their dessert section.Last but not the least , hospitality is mind blowing server saurabh on my table was pretty good.The evening was pretty Crowed<br/>but tnx to floor manager chandan and his team to for their full attention.will come back soon.<br/>

A shoutout to all selfie lovers. This is the place to be at to click some good bunch of photos but nothing beyond that.<br/>There is no proper drinks menu, just a shreds of paper flying from here to there and not a single cocktail in the list. And then when drinks have been ordered one needs to sit with at least 3 servings of appetizers and ask the waiter to update on the status of the drink and only then they push out a couple of goblets!<br/>Coming to the food, nothing tastes good. Some food are so bland that you'll feel like the roadside vendors have way better food to offer. And the rest of the items have such high salt content that your tongue is bound to burn. Most of the fish items have a weird smell. Some of the items even have under-cooked fish to offer!<br/>The veg appetizers tasted like bland pieces of rubber in my mouth. Oh not to mention the over boiled noodles swimming in a bowl full of soya sauce! Once again the sodium content is bound to burn your tongue! <br/>Please, do not , for the love of your life taste the shrimps in the live counter. They are frozen old shrimps that smell so weird that the chef tries to cover it by using 3 different sauces! <br/>There are a variety of desserts but none of them taste good. All the desserts are so sweet that one will surely throw up after consuming it! Too many desserts with coconut. <br/>I am assigning this single star for the lovely staff and somewhat palatable pad thai noodles! I cannot believe I traveled so far and paid so much to eat at a so called "5 star hotel" only to embarrass myself in front of my family and upset them! Honestly such a waste of time and money going to such a place and coming back with 2 sick family members for the terrible food!
Souraj Kundu
This place was in my bucket list for a long time and finally went today for lunch buffet with all of my teammates..The resturent is situated on the 10th floor of the hotel..The ambience is just awesome in one word and the decor is also very nice..And specially i want to mention the view from the 10th floor is just amazing..You will able to see Howrah bridge and Second hooghly bridge also from the window...Now coming to food - From Starter to dessert food quality is very delicious in every section, no need to mention any individual item.<br/>Also they have wide spread of food variety...There is also a chaat counter and Panipuri counter included in the buffet section...Sandesh is really tasty from the dessert..Also staff are very courteous and well behaved, they will explain you about the food if you want to know about it...<br/>Overall a very good experience.. ☺☺
Somen Ganguly
Awesome & super delicious food, wide varieties, enough space and sitting arrangements, star class service.<br/>Charges are bit high in comparison to others.
Joyeta Poddar
Thev view from the 10th floor is amazing!! You can have a bird's eye view of Eco Park and New Town as you enjoy your sumptuous meal!! The food was great and had good variety of cuisines. However, the serving time could be improved for the live counters. The coffee icecream in the dessert section was extremely delicious.
Rupama Banerjee Queen

Ritwika Bhadury
Located on the 10th floor of The Westin, Seasonal Tastes is their in house restaurant.<br/>We went there for trying out their Buffet and to be honest, I am pretty impressed with the spread they offered at that Price.<br/>Just as we entered we were warmly welcomed and attended by Shubham who was extremely courteous and even brought our starters for us to our table. There was a wide range of choices for every meal be it starters, main course or desserts. Although I was told their main course isn't that great but as per taste is concerned it was worth it. It was our Second anniversary for which they brought us a cake which tasted - delicious. Thanks to Shubham, Sumana, Evana and Ankit.<br/><br/>Coming to the desserts, I haven't been to any other restaurant with such Amazing desserts all at one place. I almost tried all of them and it tasted so good that I feel like going back there everyday just to have more n more desserts!<br/>Thank You for hosting us. Hoping to visit soon again.
Arkaprava Banerjee
Want to taste the food of heaven. Must visit Seasonal Tastes once. You will know what it means to taste a quality food. Service is excellent and pretty neat and clean. At last you can't imagine the taste of those dishes and the amazing service provided by Seasonal Tastes with out visiting it. So please visit once. You will enjoy. And don't forget to take the tasty deserts which were made by Chef Prasenjit Jana and Chef Saikat Sarkar. Their beautiful deserts made my day. They are really good at it. Thanks to them for their mind blowing deserts. And thumbs up for Seasonal Tastes. I'll surely visit Seasonal Tastes again with out any doubt.
Mousumi Bhattacharyya
We went there to celebrate my husband's birthday.it was indeed a special day and every staff of the restaurant are very friendly and courtesious and tried every attempt to make the day memorable for us. Now regarding the food, it was awesome it has Italian continental indian chinese all specially the salad ,chat corner and desert sections are amazing. Desert has almost all varieties from cake to pudding to indian sweets. Thanks Weston to make ours a memorable day.
Abhijit Saha
Visited as a guest for lunch on 12th Aug. I just want to say that, in addition to a nice buffet, chef Saikat and Chef jana both were awesome. They had just the right balance of friendliness and efficiency. All the foods were awesome specially I want to mention about the desserts, it was delicious and I would love the visit the restaurant again for the desserts specially. Kudos!👍👍

Finding a place for a perfect team brunch, or friends hanging out for trying a new buffet place, Seasonal Taste fits in best. The restaurant is located at 10th floor in Westin hotel where you can enjoy<br/>an amazing view of eco park. Who doesn't enjoy lunch with a view?<br/>Had an enjoyable experience with food. The buffet was top notch and full of delicacies. Caution: don't go if you plan to eat little because the varities of scrumptious food laid on the table will be difficult to resist from. The desserts were the stealer. Opera and Dobos Torte are must try. They also had wide variety of other desserts which will attract you to eat more than your hunger.<br/>The service is prompt and staffs are cooperative. They take every pain to describe the food and help you satisfy your taste buds.<br/>To a unique decor and perfect balance of veg, non-veg cuisines makes it a must try peep.
Shibani Ghosh
We went today I. e on 14th August for my birthday lunch . We had a wonderful time there. The hotel team, Chef Saikat Sarkar, Mr Ankit & his team mates served us very nicely .<br/>Pasta n pan fried noodles prepared by chef on live counter was just superb . They had a huge spread of dessert. We couldn't taste everything as we were already full but we tasted few n they tasted just awesome . I loved them. Chaat counter items were also amazing. Looking forward for a visit in near future . Thanks once again for the complimentary cake which they provided for my birthday . Cake was yummy .

Recently visited Westin Kolkata with my wife to cherish Chefs of India food fest. We found the food very good.. service and ambience was very nice...special thanks to Chef Ravish for taking out his time and give light to different regional cuisines..it was a very beautifully curated food fest...we specialy liked the starters of punjab...amritsari choley kulchey was nice.....rajasthani food was amazing specialy murgh ka sweta...and the hyderabadi biriyani was out of the world....the most interesting part of the buffetwss its desserts...the focus was on indian desserts...the salads was good to...i dont think anybody can have all the food...we are looking forward to visit ...it was an awsome experience altogether....
Piya Chowdhury
Awesome place. Everything is too good including food, ambience, behaviour of all the people out there.<br/>Specially the desserts are tood good, delicious. Love the desserts.. ❤️❤️
Sanchari
The restaurant is at 10th floor of Westin which offers a splendid view of ecopark and the Newtown roads. Went there for team lunch on a weekday. Spread was huge and we could not even taste everything displayed. There was chaat counter, cold cuts counter, salad counter and cheese counter. Overall it was a nice spread but I personally liked the desserts a lott..
Dipanjan
We went there on a team lunch on 10th Aug. ( Finally after seeing the place everyday to my commute to office :) )<br/><br/>You will start getting the positive vibes the moment you enter the hotel. The interiors were well decorated and the place lives up to it's name of being one of most auspicious hotel chain in the world. <br/><br/>Now coming to the food, the restaurant was located on the 10th floor of the hotel and does justice to the feedback of the awesome view, many others have reported. You would not want to miss this. <br/><br/>Now coming to the food, we went with the more pocket friendly buffet option. Not much to tell apart from the already other reviews. I personally found the food average, considering the cost and the hotel name it is associated to. There were indeed many options overall, however nothing tingles your taste buds. The live sea food counter was good but I found the live pasta counter to be disappointing. It did not live up to its expectations. The main courses were made in South Indian style, which again were reasons for disappointment.<br/><br/>There were plenty of desserts available, but apart for the apple one ( I forgot its name ) - I found others to be of the same genre.<br/><br/>Overall, I would recommend anyone to visit here - if you can agree to take a bit of a compromise on the food taste and would want just to enjoy the ambience.<br/><br/>Have a nice one folks :)<br/><br/>
Gopal Banik
I have been here some days back with my office colleagues and had a wonderful experience all together....the buffet quality and ambience was awsome...Chef Ravish Mishra helped us out with the buffet detailing...a wonderful person with a great knowledge of food.....all the chefs and other restaurant staffs was very courteous...about the food, the starter section was mouth watering along with the desser...ts and live counters...enjoyed a lot....looking forward to visit there again.
Shweta B
It was corporate lunch party and the experience was amazing. Beautiful ambience, lovely people and outstanding food. Enough and more starters and Biryani was delicious. The dessert selection was unbelievable. One can not try all, the selction was enormous. Must try. Seriously good food.
Srijita Das
We came to dine at westin and had buffet from the colours of India festival which comprised of food from 4 states (west Bengal,Andhra Pradesh Rajasthan and punjab) and Ashish helped us to sort out the food which was palatable to put taste buds! 👍👍
Arpita Singh
The food was amazing. Thanks to Chef Ravish for such a beautiful gesture and today’s mouth watering and delicious lunch buffet.<br/>The served was having different cousins representing different taste and cultures. Where as at the same time the staff was amazing too. Nice place to try out good food. I would definitely recommend people to visit and taste the food 1s.
Subhasis Chatterjee
It was a Google conference and I was invited to attend the same in The Westin, Rajarhat , just one stop before the State of the art Biswas Bangla Convention Centre. Thanks to Google not just for sharing knowledge with innovators like us. But also paved the way to get into Westin for the first time and tasting their spread of cuisine in the process. <br/>Fine dining was not new and The Westin was no different. There were assorted salads, breads, 4-5 veg preparations, two non veg items. But the ones which actually tickled my taste buds and literally swept away from my feet was the dessert spread. <br/>Taste their Hazelnut Chocolate Mousse. It is simply out of the world. I've tasted Chocolate Mousse in at least 10 more places of world class repute. But this one, to me, is really different and unique. Then I liked their Mixed Berry Cheese Cake. It tastes different. But it is awesomely beautiful. <br/>I kept on avoiding Mong Dal Halwa in previous cases. But here I could not check myself to have a go. And it was delicious. <br/>Reading upto this, if you come to a conclusion that I've sweet tooth and hence I'm highlighting their desserts. Then you're completely mistaken. I'm a pure non veg guy who does not have the least little liking for desserts. But since it was really a "PRODUCT" worth mentioning, and I enjoyed a lot, I had to pinpoint those items. <br/>
Sucheta Dasgupta
A Wide Variety Of Buffet spread. Food taste is good. I specially loved the dessert part and it was a very wide range of buffet spread. The ambience is awesome and gives a lavish feeling. Corporate employees have discount of 20% on the buffet too. Recommended to try. <br/><br/>This is at 10th Floor and you will get an amazing view. You can also see Howrah Bridge and Vivekananda Setu from there.
Stiti Pragya
Excellent food in Seasonal Taste. Tried lovely food during chefs of India. Food from all the corner of India is simply perfect. Well executed menu and all the dishes has its own distinct flavour. The show stopper was dessert buffet having many options and all dessert was yummm.... <br/>Thanks to Chef Ashish for giving detailed overview of all the dishes which was there on the buffet.<br/>
Shubham
Two weeks ago i went to try the food in Seasonal tastes restaurant in Westin kolkata quality of food was top notch and spread was better then any other hotel near vicinity. Thanks to Chef Debayan and Chef Abhay who look after my meal and make my evening beautifull. Thank you Westin keep it up..
Ishita Bhattacharya
Family get-togethers are always special.We, a family of four decided to celebrate my brother's birthday last night at seasonal tastes and the experience was nothing less than a memorable one.Great hospitality was coupled with delicious food.We went for the dinner buffet and it had a wide array of dishes across states.Every dish captured a flavour of it's own.A special mention to Mohsin and Sandip who really gratified us with their sheer hospitality and to chef Mr Mathur for creating a sumptuous menu.Thankyou all for the wonderful experience.Hoping to visit soon!
Snehali
Well this place has an amazing view from the 10 th floor, where you can see the eco park from the sides and as well the Newtown Roads giving a splendid view. Now for the food section, I went for the buffet, the starters were good 4-5 types of variations including mushrooms, paneer, fosh and chicken, but for the main course and continental section the food wasn’t that tasty, Desserts had a huge number of items but there again some tasted good and some didn’t.
Kolkatafoodology
So I had gone to Westin for the Italian fiesta! They had a good spread and varieties of not only Italian cuisine but also Indian and Mexican. There were various live counters and the best part about the whole dinner was that the Celebrity Chef Pre-plated the dishes for us. The gnocchi, Rissoto and Asparagus rolls being the best of the lot.<br/>The only missing part was a Pizza at an Italian Festival. <br/>The service was commendable and courteousness of the staffs there is worth praising.<br/>The Dessert counter had over 20 varieties of sweets (Indian & Western) and I dint know where to stop! <br/>The had seperate counters for cold cuts, Salad and cheese.<br/>Thanks for making it memorable for us.<br/>
Sounak Basu Roy
Had team lunch, great place, nice ambience, they need to work on the food department though, they have a great variety of desserts but only a few likeable main course and starter dishes. Stir fried noodles was good, the staffs were courteous. 4 stars only for the place. Food needs to improve.
Shabnam Bandyopadhyay
We went for lunch buffet and we we're quite a bit disappointed. The restaurant is situated at 10th floor and you get a fantastic view of Eco Park and Newtown rajarhat. The ambience is awesome. The stuffs are well trained.<br/>But what I found is the place is over rated. The main point which is Taste not so good. They provide wide ranges of starter, main courses and dessert. I went there only to taste authentic continental food but continental food taste is kind of horrible. Apart from this everything thing is very good
Suvra Paul
Nice hotel with wonderful staff.....great view...Awesome Sunday brunch....great spread...tasty food....Awesome people...thumps up team Seasonal taste..best in the city...
Shounak Pal
Dropped here twice - once for a late night coffee & once for a Sunday Brunch. To start with, I liked the ambiance & decor. The way the food was spread out during the Brunch was really thoughtful. The continental spread fared better than the Indian part. And yes, the choice is plenty. I requested the staff to meet the Chef to discuss on one particular Mediterranean dish. In came Chef Saurabh Mathur & explained the dish in details. I left the place as a satisfied foodie and without burning a hole in my pocket!!!
Rupam Ghosh
The Westin is one of the hardest places to get but as they say hard roads lead to beautiful places. Its very true. The view from the 10th floor was mesmerising. The restaurant is amazingly placed with fabulous interiors and amazing art. With natural light filling the space will make you feel comfortable and relaxed.<br/>Over coffee and desserts the afternoon couldn't get better.<br/>Ordered goey double, new york cheesecake and chocolate tart from the desserts. A club sandwich and coffee. I don't have to say anything further. It was just too good.<br/>The staff is very polite and service is top class.<br/>They also have a amazing Sunday brunch buffet which is on my list now. Will definitely visit.<br/>Visited all the 5 star hotels in kolkata and I would say don't miss this one.<br/>Thanks for the amazing experience. See you soon. ☺️
Subir Ghosh
We went to the Westin ,Rajarhat Kolkata for weekday lunch with family and friends. And we had buffet lunch. Let me review a few things I've experienced.<br/>1) Location : The restaurant is loacted on 10th floor opposite to Ecopark. I personally love restaurant with view.👍<br/>2)Staffs: Staffs are very polite, helping and soft spoken. You can feel the difference.<br/>3) Decor : The ambiance is very nice specially the big Durga face in main lobby.<br/>4)Food: There are good options to try in buffet. Food tasted good. There is a beautiful salad bar which I loved. There are live counters for pasta.<br/>5) Desserts: This area is mostly highlighted and there are lot of options. It's really hard to taste all of them. But one should try at least a few things<br/>6)Price : Weekday buffet lunch has reasonable price tag. But one thing we've noticed was juice price. One glass of coconut water would cost you ₹450 !! I'll be happy if anyone can explain that with reason. 😂<br/>Overall we had very nice experience there. 👍
Dr.Dibyendu
Such a wonderful experience.<br/>One should go for buffet.<br/>Lots of options.<br/>Good foods, tasty.<br/>Love the deserts.<br/>It's a luxurious time spent with family friends.<br/>Will visit again.<br/>Can't be good like this.
Soupratick Manna
No doubt the interior and ambience was great. Staffs are helpful. For the food I can say it's not like what I've expected. We had the buffet dinner there. The starters lacked variety. For non vegetarians there was only one chicken and two fish items. Taste wise dishes were ok. For salads you can get a large variety of them. In the main course the chicken biryani and the mutton was very good. But the 'Macher Kalia' was average, haven't gone for the vegetarian dishes so will not comment on them. For deserts I can say you'll not be disappointed. Huge variety of them and most of them are quite yum. Also recommend to test the different types of cheeses available there, you would definitely like them. I would like to suggest the management to increase the variety in starters and main course. Finally to my view if you are in a mood to experiment with some new food or a fan of continental dishes then should definitely give it a try. But if you are a indian food lover like me you can skip this.
Karabi Dey
Ambience is awesome & food also, it was Italian food festival we enjoyed the evening.<br/>Loved it, everything was fresh and tasty. Majorly loved their dessert section.<br/>
Sohini Basu
The Marriott brand being really close to my heart, I decided to give the buffet at Seasonal Tastes, The Westin Kolkata, a try, and mind you, I was blown away. The restaurant has an international feel to it, and being located on the 10th floor of the hotel, it gives an impressive view of the entire city, especially at night. Moreover, the staff is extremely courteous, and is always eager to please the visitors.<br/>The buffet comprises of an impressive spread. You get various kinds of kebabs- both vegetarian and non vegetarian; there is a chaat counter which will customise anything for you- be it muri, chaat, or the famous Calcutta phuchka; you have a Chinese counter where you can order any Chinese food, and they will customise it for you, in exactly the way you want; there is also a live pasta counter, churning out the most delicious pastas. If you are not very adventurous when it comes to food, fear not- You can eat Dal Chawal, which also presents itself on the menu. <br/>Now, coming to the desserts, they are mind blowing- there at least 10 types of desserts, each equally wonderful. They are to ‘die for’.<br/>Overall, The Westin, Kolkata was a good experience, and I will certainly visit again.<br/>
Khushboo
We went on Saturday, opted for buffet. The ambience and the interior is good. Being a 5 star restaurant it’s spacious as it is supposed to be. Coming to the food part, they have variety no doubt but the food was below average. You will get live counter for pasta, noodles and pani puri. Noodles are good but pasta was a disappointment. Pani puri is okay. Starters were not good at all and same goes with the main course. Mutton dish which is listed in the main course was bland, no taste at all. The only thing which i felt good about was the desert section which was marvellous, if I’ll exclude the dessert section then the rating will go down to 0 or -ve
Nishi Seth
The best and one of it's kind of Buffet at Westin!<br/>Well who says you cannot have much of an option in Buffet?<br/>The Jain counter adds an extra Brownie point for this place.<br/>In pictures below: The dessert platter, well thats the half of the dessert spread!<br/>Veg Rissoto: Made perfectly<br/>Baked Rosogulla: Being sweets fan, couldn't ignore this 🙈<br/>And the last picture is of the decor, which is unique!<br/>The Buffet had the perfect balance of Veg and Non veg cuisines.<br/>All in all: Value for money, Good Customer service, Good food!<br/>
Shubhangi
Amazing food and so is the service team. Thank you Chef Saurbh for the yummlicious treat.The restaurant has a cozy atmosphere .We look forward to visit again.

The impeccable restaurant at Westin Rajarhat Kolkata is a charm to the dinning experience at Kolkata. The dinner with my friends here was to die for and specially with the splendid hospitality of Sous Chef Saurabh mathur. I was really pampered to my food cravings and was completely satisfied with the taste of the food and Ambience of the restaurant. Kudos to his team. Will surely visit next time I am in Kolkata!!
Pravin
I had an office conference here and the lunch buffet was average...the food arrangement was a bit cumbersome to serve one ownself.Moreover the food taste was on the average level for majority of the items...but Kuddos for the effort they put in.!!!

We have been to seasonal tastes with group of friends on Sunday. We used to visit the place with family for lunch or dinner but heard lots about the brunch so decided to try it out once.<br/>The whole place was buzzing with excitement. They have 6-7 live stations to choose from. One might get confused as what to try and what to leave. Well, the main course selection was also huge. My personal favourite was Chingari malai curry on buffet. Desserts too had live station and approximately 20 different varieties to choose from.<br/>Overall great experiences and very relaxing Sunday.<br/>Most important thing was service by Amarjeet and sumana with chef Saurabh. Kudos to Manager Shankar's

We went there for dinner. The decor was modern and minimalist. Didn’t find anything interesting except the gigantic embellishment forming a partial visage of Maa Durga.Upstairs a buffet was going on.The spread was good but again nothing special.. We ordered a sea-food stir fry in the live kitchen .It was the only good thing.However the cheese section was laid out in a thoughtful way providing suitable condiments and accompaniments with each variety. Worth mention the lovely view of NewTown.

Had a sudden plan to have dinner last weekend... It was totally unplanned... And glad it panned out so well for us... Had been to Westin properties in Mumbai and NCR, Rajarhat Westin matches up to the warmth and hospitality...<br/><br/>Coming to food it was a pleasant sight for eyes and delectable for palate... I have to mention the Hilsa grill which we gobbled almost 8 plates... The wok section could have been better... The Grill and Indian Section was excellent... Pulao, Rara Mutton holds special mention along with traditional Bengali recipes... Deserts were very well spread out... All in all a very humble nice evening we spent having good food and exchanging words...<br/>

It may have taken a while for me to get here, but I've found the buffet spread with the best view you could get in Kolkata!<br/>This is a really classy place with an ambience perfectly made to make you feel warm and comfortable. We had a reservation for a team lunch on the 10th floor. And when i stepped into the dining area, oh boy what a view that was!!<br/>Now coming to the food, the buffet cost us 943/- inclusive of all taxes ( corporate discount included ).<br/>If i had to write about all the items that the spread offers, it would need pages. My recommendation for this place is because of the following:<br/>🔹Great continental spread ( loved the herb grilled chicken which was done skin on! Perfect crispy skin on the outer side )<br/>🔹Cold cuts: Parma ham, salami & ham ( loved the parma ham with its subtle yet a complex mixture of sweet, salty & fruity flavours. The salami had a lovely fat texture )<br/>🔹Cheeses: The best you could get! Provolone, gouda, pecorino, brie, edam, feta!! What more can you imagine!! And an array of lovely accompaniments like apricots, berries, figs, cheese crackers to get your cheese platter ready!!<br/>🔹Deserts: Must have been more than 30 or more!! I would highly recommend the Mascarpone tart...the sweetness is so balanced! Also the cheesecake, panna cotta & the ice creams are wonderful with everything from marshmallows to caramel to top up your ice creams!!<br/>🔹Salads: Picture perfect fresh vegetables & fruits with all sorts of dressings you can imagine! Top off with parmesan shavings and go bananas!!<br/><br/>Worthy to mention is the live counter as well..had a bowl of bacon pasta and chicken shrimp noodles...<br/>And you would get all other items in addition to these that are served at any other buffets.<br/>The staffs are very courteous and well aware of their work.<br/>A must visit if you wanna break your ususal routine buffet spread.

I had been here to celebrate a friend's birthday and had a wonderful experience here. Although the hotel was then packed up with IPL guests yet they made a point to attend all the other customers too. The staff was very polite and suggestive of the exclusive dishes but irrespective of the special ones all the dishes were very tasty and perfectly served. All together enjoyed a very nice hospitality and sumptuous lunch that day.
Ekata Ghosh

I was looking forward to trying out the restaurant and wasn't disappointed. The 10th floor Restaurant at Westin Rajarhat Kolkata, Food was fantastic specially the added hospitality of sous chef Saurabh, the staff were friendly and provided a good service. The restaurant had a good atmosphere and modern decor. I will definitely be coming back and will recommend to family and friends.
Ajay Mathur
The 10th floor resturant at the Westin Rajarhat kolkata is an top of the line addition to the dinning experience at Kolkata. My lunch with the team here was to die for and specially with the added hospitality of Chef Vikas and Sous Chef Saurabh. Also George and Tulika were very courteous. Dessert spread is best in town. My best wishes to the team keep rocking<br/>Ajay

The most important thing that came to my mind while opting for this restaurant was: Should I travel so far to have a buffet? The answer came 'Yes' you can and all due to the generosity of Uber. I visited this place on 17th of July, 2018 at around 1 p.m. The whole restaurant was quiet due to our early arrival I suppose (though the buffet begins from 12:30 p.m.) and the preparations were on-going till now. We took our seats and began our buffet-mania. Two things which I would like to metion while describing about the Buffet: 1. Most of the food items were were not properly heated and were served cold 2. The options available were quite sufficient but not properly selected (No kaali daal in North Indian Main course 😫😫) For me it was a two 🌟 rated performance from Seasonal Tastes. Hoping it would get better in the near future but Yes, if I have to choose between coming back to this restaurant and any other then presently, I'd be choosing that other one. Good Luck for the future!<br/>PS: The service was provided in a well-fashioned manner and if it hadn't been for service then the rating could've been a little more lower.
Shreyya Bothra
Heard a lot about this place.Went for my birthday lunch.We had prior reservation but when we landed up,there wasn’t any reservation but as it was a weekday we got a seat.The ambience is okay nothing great coming to the food-there wasn’t much variety.Indian menu was just not good.Menu comprised of-methi aloo,baingan,sukhto.I mean who would want to have all these.<br/>Noodles was the only thing which I liked.<br/>Pasta was horrible👎🏻<br/>Had high hopes with the dessert which too was a big no-no.<br/>Wouldn’t want to come back again.<br/>Service-3.5/5<br/>Food-1/5<br/>Ambience-2/5

Sourav Paul
If you are looking for a a place with a great ambience, decor and a mesmerising view while rolling your tongue over some tasty food you have to definitely visit the place.The noodles and Sandwich from the live counter are just too good to describe. The dessert were also good along with the 6 different ice cream.
Shatadru Choudhury
Thanks to a senior of mine...who suggested me this place for a family sunday brunch...The experience was surreal to say the least...right from entering to leaving...all you will get is quality! I have been in many a buffets out there...yet this place was exceptional in terms of variety, quantity, quality and staff! There is a reason why Sunday brunch is so highly recommended! Please do visit and give it a try if you haven't already!
Ved Prakash Singh
Went there with my colleagues and I must say it's nice place to go out for food with your friends and family.... I liked the food and presentation both as visited during special Rampur kebab festival. Also a very huge variety for both veg and non veg.... The ambience was very good along with courteous staff.... I will love to visit again
Omnivore
Had buffet lunch on 11th July '18 after several recommendations from friends, and indeed it was worth the five star expense. Amazingly fresh considering the mechanics of buffet food management. There was a vast array of options with live counters to take care of hot food prepared before one. At the dessert counter one was spoilt for choices. The staff were super-helpful and the 10th floor view a great back-drop.
Doyel Acharya
Good ambience courteous staff and good food.. Here the one thing which I will never forget is the Gosht ka halwa it had a different taste and it's was a completely new experience for me..and it is one of the best buffets in Kolkata..
Siddhartha Paul
Ambiance-5/5<br/>Foods-4/5<br/>Service-5/5<br/>Price-3.8/5(not pocket friendly 😅but the price is worth for the quality of foods and the brand)<br/>Afterall this is Westin... We had went for a brunch one Sunday... The ambiance was really great !! On the 10th floor having a seat with a full view of the city outside we were having a nice time... They have live counters friendly service a whole lot of deserts and lot of mouth watering items in the list !!!!! The fish we had was little dry else everything was fine my overall ratings will be 4.5/5...
Zebran Alam
As the name goes- "Seasonal Tastes" <br/>One of the best restaurants in Kolkata, serving the best food for all seasons! <br/><br/>Its a treat to the eye as well to be in such a beautiful place and to see so customised food! <br/>Its a place for all the Vegans and Non-Vegans! <br/>The dessert section would be the best for anyone! <br/><br/>I would highly recommend this place for a lunch♥️
Ritam Das
Westin provides exquisite continental and western foods in their buffets.<br/>Thia place is situated on the 10th floor of Weatin building and the ambience is all the good you can think of. With instrument al music playing on the background and royal decorations, this place will give you a lavish dining experience.<br/><br/>Coming to the food, you get tovtaste a variety of Western menu in this buffet. Starting from Sausages, Turkey Salad, Cheddar Cheese, Parma Ham, Mortadella, Bacon and what not? They have a large range of salads and dessert available. You get to try six different types of ice cream with variety of topping s available, Fresh fruits, tarts, pastry, cheese cake, mousse, bengali sweets and lots more.<br/><br/>Overall we had a good buffet and a very good hospitality from Westin.
Shreya Sanyal
Went for the Sunday Brunch. It is definitely worth the money. There was an exquisite spread of a variety of cuisines as expected. The decor and ambience was good. However the service is not good. The waiters are confused about what to serve to whom. If they can improve upon that, then this is definitely one of the best buffet spreads in town.
Nikita Dudheria
One happy place is enough to describe The Westin.<br/>Was there to try their seasonal tastes- lunch buffet.<br/>Everything, starting from the ambiance, food, outdoor view, staff service is so good.<br/>We had so many varieties to try in the buffet.<br/>Yet the best part was the desserts. Tried everything starting from the Chocolate tart to rasmalaai and badaam ka halwa.<br/>Everything tasted so well.
IChiru
<br/><br/>They say.... "Dont judge by the cover". Not most of the time, but sometimes it is true. If someone talks of the ambience, probably The Westin would qet 11 out of 10. No doubt about it as the breathtaking view from 10th floor is mesmerizing. Washroom is excellent where people would get the Tier Five "JW Marriot" vibes. Starting from ground floor to destiny everwhere welltrained staff are present to greet you and guide you till the end. <br/><br/>  Before entering with their sumptuous food they gave an overview on all the items. Live Tex Mex counter was there to serve typical Tex MEx cuisines. Apart from that other counters were as follows:<br/><br/>1. Starter corner<br/><br/>2. Main Course section(both veg and non-veg) <br/><br/>3.  Asian segment<br/><br/>4. Salad<br/><br/>5. Coldcuts and<br/><br/>6. Their enlarged area of Desserts<br/><br/> There was this item namely "Mixed Veg" was the best among all the starters. It was well balanced, medium spicy and juicy which would definiately charge you up. Salad was the next thing i was craving for. I took boiled Beetroot, Lettuce, beans, broccoli, passion fruit along with Brown and white Mayo. The available Coldcuts exceeded our expectation. Cooked Ham was yummy and had the perfecrt Masala balance. Parma Ham and Salami were worth mentioning.<br/><br/> In the Main Course, Mutton Kasa was outstanding. The ratio of all ingradients were applied to perfection. Mutton was tender, superjuicy thus worth remembering. They have lots of desserts to offer. Mawa Barfi and Chocolate Cake were top notch. <br/><br/>Note: They have seperate Drinks counter. And last but obviously not least, the price per head for our Lunch Buffet was 1178 R.S /- (Inclusive of all taxes) which justified the buffet quite well.<br/><br/>

Westin is situated just at a 5 minutes walking distance from Narkelbagan, Rajarhat. The place is at a very convenient position for those who work near Unitech or Ecospace or even at DLF and sector V.<br/>The building is tall and looks elegant with its architecture though it is still not complete.<br/>We booked its Seasonal Tastes restaurant for our corporate team lunch on 26th June 2018. On reaching there we were greeted and welcomed. The restaurant was well decorated and provides an awesome view through its 10th floor-glass walls.<br/>We were a total of 12 people and the restaurant management put in their all effort to make us sit together for the lunch. This was very much appreciated.<br/>First they provided one mocktail named Floral Delight which seemed like sprite mixed with rose syrup.<br/>Coming to the lunch setup, there were different sections:<br/><br/>1. Starter and soup: to be specific there were only two non veg items: fish finger and chicken fritters. Fish fingers were quite good but chicken fritters were not up to the mark and also they were not keeping sufficient quantity of this item. In veg starters, there were about 5 types of items. To name a few: cheese croquettes which was full of potato and less of cheese, paneer tikka which was good.<br/><br/>2. Bread section: there were 2-3 types of breads available.<br/><br/>3. Cold cut section: there was ham, Parma ham, salami and a few more. This one was good. Along with the cuts, there were a few dips well.<br/><br/>4. Salad section and cheese section: it had variety in it. But I could try a few like prawn marinated salad which was good for those who can eat raw prawns.<br/>The cheese section had different types of cheese like brie, cheddar, creame cheese and others.<br/><br/>5. Main course section: it had chicken biryani which was a bit cold and disappointing, mutton curry which was really very good with soft mutton pieces, fish, rice. The veg section seemed to be equipped with more options like corn mushroom preparation,dal,subzi, and others. I want to mention one thing here. They put different papads here among which I wanted to have saboo Dana papad, but to my disappointment, those were soggy. It was really not accepted from a five star claiming kitchen. Anyway moving forward,<br/><br/>6. Continental section: it had chicken roast with herbs. This one was delicious. It had lemon butter fish in which I found the fish to be a bit stale. It also had beef potpie. This one was the best of the lot. It also contained a few dips like wasabi mustard and chocolate mustard which were good and unique.<br/><br/>7. Open section- tex mex and Asian : I had Quesadillas. It was not that tasty. I also had squid and mushroom spicy noodles. The squids were fresh and tasty. The mushrooms in it were different yet delicious. But the noodles were cooked in a sweet type of sauce that did not meet my choice and order. I was expecting some Italian counter for pasta and pizza but they said that cuisines of the open counters maintain round robin schedule.<br/><br/>8. The best section - Dessert section: it had numerous items, like<br/>Sandesh, Fruit cuts, Chocolate cake, chocolate mousse, mango dome, chocolate bar, cheese cake, Panna cotta, gulab jamun and many more.<br/>I want to name the best sweet pieces. Those are :<br/>Paris Breast: the pastry was so light and fluffy, the tampered chocolate was heavenly.<br/>Chocolate Brownie: it was delicious and drowned in chocolate sauce.<br/>Black forest cake: it was light, tasty and the chocolate shards on it were awesome.<br/><br/>Pocket pinch: with corporate offer, it was Rs.944 per head inclusive all.<br/><br/>Ambience and the hospitality were amazing.<br/>

The slow cooked meat in rich marrow gravy just carried the robust taste.<br/><br/>Murg Jahangiri - A royal Indian recipe with chicken in Murgh Musalla style. Curry full of rich aromatic spices. Another royal dishes to highlight.<br/><br/>Last but not the least to hit the dessert counter -<br/><br/>I would describe this as an adventure, where my palette rode into the 2 most unique Indian Halwas from Rampur as all of us are acquainted with 2 festive Halwas - Gajar ka Halwa, Sooji ka Halwa.<br/><br/>Mirch ka Halwa - Shimla Mirch Ka halwa ( Capsicum halwa) -<br/>The typical flavour has come out from boiled capsicum cooked with milk and khoya.

Excellent spread, great ambience, courteous staffs and tasty food. Notably the desserts.<br/>Went for lunch buffet and had an amazing meal. Surely recommendable.
Nibedita Basu
View from the tenth floor is mind-blowing. Yes , the seasonal tastes restaurant is on the tenth floor. We visited this place on a weekday, we settled for buffet lunch. The spread was exotic, staff was courteous. The buffet is around 1178 per person inclusive of taxes. Quite a nice place and would definitely visit it again.

Dis luxury dining place was in my bucket list since many days nd i went there wid tons of expectations for a weekday Lunch buffet... overall d experience was wonderful bt I am a bit disappointed fr a few reasons...<br/><br/>The breathtaking view nd deir unparallel hospitality will blow u away nyway..<br/><br/>Firstly wid d starters .. d fish n chkn prep was very disappointing... d veg starters were comparitively much better<br/><br/>In d continental starters d lamb was beautifully cooked bt d fish n chkn prep were quite bland.. specially fr d lemon butter fish where we could nt taste d flavour vry well<br/><br/>We liked d salad.. chat.. cheese..cold cuts section..<br/><br/>D burger sandwich n oriental live counters were really good<br/><br/>We had ordered mocktails separately nd dey were fantastic<br/><br/>Pointing towards d main courses..... d veg section had many choices bt d Nonveg section comprised only of machher jhol.. garlic fried rice... biriyani nd bhuna ghosht which was prepared out of Beef... If I am nt wrong many of us don't prefer beef so in dat case my main course was incomplete ... I had expected a chkn lamb or mutton prep in d main course nd i would humbly request d authority if u cn take dis into consideration....<br/><br/>Bt all is well dat ends well.. so d huge variety of mouthwatering desserts really made our day!!
Dr BISWAJIT SAHA
After a long time wishing,at last visited the place last Saturday.The ambience & the behaviour of the staffs just amazed me.The chefs were very friendly & helpful,describing the whole open kitchen & the items (probably the best behaviour I found anywhere else in kolkata).<br/><br/>Tried their buffet menu,which had quite the elaborate spread from various cuisines.Loved the view from the window side seat,and also the wide dessert collection.<br/><br/>While being there,I do suggest trying their Wok Station(stir frying assorted meats as per your choice);the cold salads & the assorted cheese platter.<br/>Cannot comment on the carbs though.<br/>Only disliked the roast chicken,which was bit cold & on the chewy side.<br/><br/>Cost was Rs 1179 pp.
Sebanti Dutta
Been there last week for a office party.<br/>The interior and hospitality is beyond to mention<br/>It was really awesome.We had a buffet ordered for us.It started with different salads,soups and dahi vada and papad.Dahi vada was really tasy.After that it was an indian buffet.Staring from babt nun to various veg starters,chicken items and must say about grilled fish.After that we had super yummy desserts starting from cheese cake to chanar payesh.It was overwhelming to have a visit there..
Arpita Datta

Puja Karmakar
Have taken buffet. Starter was good but the quality of the fish was not up to the mark. One star is only for the desserts,it was just awesome. Verity of dishes includes Indian, Chinese, continental,sea-food. Lamb was juicy,pork was properly cooked.Lots of sweets in desert.overrall experience was nice. But alakante is not preferable.
Torsha Ray
Went there a week back for team lunch. The menu spread is quite large. Loved their chicken lasagna and jacket potatoes. The main course had aromatic pulao,which taste delicious. But the best part will be the dessert anytime, especially their dark chocolate mousse. Loved the buffet totally!
Avinanda Sarkar
Located near Eco Park, Seasonal Taste is on the 10th floor of the Westin. This luxury retreat is relatively new in town and has top notch service, starting from Valet to Usher.<br/>The restaurant staff themselves were warm & courteous. Service was excellent. Attended the Sunday Brunch and was spoilt for choices, specially the exquisite array of desserts. Special mention to Mr. Ankit, an associate from the Drinks section.<br/><br/>Chaat Section : (3/5) We were served PAANIPURI & BHELPURI. There was also other chaats but we did not try further options. Chaats were standard.<br/><br/>Drinks : (5/5) There were a lot of choices, non-alcoholic, with an array of mojitos, soft drinks & fruit juices. We opted for CLASSIC MOJITO, BERI BERI MOJITO, ORANGE & BASIL MOJITO and AAMRAS. Special mention to Mr. Ankit who was preparing our drink. The Orange Basil Mojito was not on the menu but he prepared it specially for us and it was minblowingly awesome. Kudos to him.<br/><br/>Starters : (3.5/5) Starters were really limited. Would have loved more variants. PANEER TIKKA was the best in veg section, but KAJU TIKKA was dry and bland. Loved the STUFFED CHICKEN TANGDI KEBAB, LAMB TIKKA & CRAB CAKES. There was also a variety of breads like SAUSAGE BUN. Liked the MOZARELLA STUFFED CHICKEN, HERB CHICKEN, SALMON, & SPICED LAMB. A variety of novel condiments & mustard was available like HERB MUSTARD, CHOCOLATE MUSTARD etc. Some starters were really good while others were standard. Variety and quality should be improved.<br/><br/>Cheese Section : (4/5) A variety of fresh cheese was provided with crackers, variety of chutneys like apple, fig, dates etc, alongwith other condiments.<br/><br/>Cold Cuts : (4/5) Variety of cured cold cuts were provided. Was good and of imported quality.<br/><br/>Salad Couter : (4.5/5) There were numerous choices like POTATO SALAD, SEAFOOD SALAD (with octopus, squid, oysters etc), TUNA SALAD, CHICKEN SALAD, SPROUTS SALADs etc. Each and every salad was finely balanced & well prepped. Was very fresh.<br/><br/>Pasta Section : (5/5) Was excellently prepped with bacon, pork, fresh goat's cheese & roast chicken. Was a creamy cheesy heaven.<br/><br/>Rolls & Wraps : (5/5) Tried out 2 varieties. Both were very fresh & delectable.<br/><br/>Seafood Section : (3.5/5) Had a variety of fares which was being fried & prepped in front of us. We opted for KINGFISH, PRAWNS & BHOLA BHETKI. The Prawn & Bhetki was fresh and prepped well enough. However the kingfish was not good amd had a bitter aftertaste to it.<br/><br/>Asian Counter : (4.5/5) Dumplings, Noodles & Rice was being prepped in the open counter. Tried a variety of dumplings like BEEF, PORK, CHICKEN & PRAWN. The Chicken dumpling was a bit gamy & chewy, while the prawn ones were bland. However, the MIXED PAN-FRIED NOODLES with chicken, pork, beef, prawn, squid & egg was excellent.<br/><br/>Main Course : (3.5/5) This counter had THAI CURRIES, ROAST CHICKEN, SPICED LAMB, BIRIYANI, CHICKEN KASSA and a few other variants.<br/><br/>Dessert : (4.5/5) A person is sure to get lost here. There was near about 50 types of cakes, tarts, choux pastries, mousse, cupcakes and many more. Loved their MANGO & CHOCO CHIP DOME AND THEIR CHOCOLATE GANACHE CAKE. The cupcakes had pretty flour & sugar motifs on top with the cakes being nice and soft. The cream filling in the Choux pastries were excellent.<br/><br/>Each counter was live and counters like Asian, Seafood, Pasta & Wraps were preparing the food in front of us. Would have been more happy with a wider spread of starters and with the improvement of the quality of the starters & main course. Pocket Pinch was a bit on the high side, it cost 2 of us about INR 3300. However, the spread was worth the price.<br/>Will be coming bak again pretty soon...hungry for more!
Shre Chakrabarti
Very poor quality. Glass was stinking not clean. Food was cold. Starters no choice.<br/>Worst case the card machine was also faulty 4 different cards tried including AMEX. None worked more over the person was pointing the machine towards me as if its my mistake.<br/>Never to visit again.
Debarghya.mandal
Food was overall pretty good. Spread was elaborate. Naan was one of the best I had in Kolkata. Laal Maas, Pabda macher jhaal deserve special mention. Service was excellent, cordial. We had a very good afternoon.<br/>My 2 year son liked his freshly made pasta and said “yummy”!!
Anusreea (The Bong Trippers)
Seasonal Tastes is a 24 hours restaurant, as of now, the only operational restaurant of the property - The Westin Kolkata. The place is chic, yet moderately priced. It is a part of the star hotel, with the humbleness in the right place. Their food speaks for them. We have had the opportunity to try their a la carte, and buffet food, and both the times it's been so overwhelming!<br/>The buffet spread will amaze you - it starts from one end of the wall to the other end, it's a long journey! One of the longest, and best buffet in town! The weekday and weekends prices differ.<br/><br/>As for the sit down menu, it is nothing short of a Masterchef episode coming out Chef Ravish's kitchen! The quantity served is gratifying, and fills you up. The products used are fresh, and of super quality. Be it the fish, the meat size and so on.<br/><br/>If you weren't already awed by the restaurant, get ready to be floored by the property itself! The huge half Durga mural greets you at the door. This mural runs upto the last standing floor! In short, absolutely worth visiting!
Sayani Chatterjee Mahapatra
A perfect destination for food lovers! Lots of variety , live counter, perfect ambiance, friendly staff. Great time .....!!! Must try- baked chicken, chicken salad, pulao n biriyani too. Desert items was just sooo tasty.. love it!!
Pamela
The best buffet I ever had, everything was just awesome, view from 10th floor, even the washroom was very beautiful , pls give it a try, it simply cannot disappoint anyone. Variety of foods was main attraction , we almost left 20 items untouched as we were full with rest of the items:)<br/>And luuuv the live kitchen<br/>Food 5/5<br/>Staff 5/5<br/>Ambience 5/5
Aishwarya Banerjee
Hey Foodies!<br/><br/>Visited this place a few hours back with colleagues for a Team Dinner (Buffet) and was totally mesmerized not only by the ambiance and the multitude of preparations and cuisines, but also by their hospitality. You automatically feel good when the staff greets you with a warm smile and a "Namaste". Also, the basil soaked water they serve is highly refreshing and if I am not wrong, it prepares our bellies for all the food we plan to "gobble up" later.<br/><br/>Undoubtedly, food was awesome. I shall not elaborate on all the items because there were plenty and possibly some of the items may vary as they are served as per availability. Though I am not a connoisseur, I can say this confidently enough that each of the items they serve has the perfect blend of taste and visual appeal. You can expect authenticity in each of their cuisine - Indian, Italian, Oriental, etc. <br/><br/>Dishes that I loved<br/><br/>Starters:  Fish in black bean sauce was delicious. It had a tangy flavor  and the right proportion of                       softness and crispiness. <br/><br/>Main course:  Murgh Biriyani and Raita. Unlike many restaurants serving buffet in Kolkata, the Biriyani                         here was steaming and well prepared.  The raita was a treat for the taste buds.  Not to mention the duo won my heart. I even took an extra helping of Biriyani which is really a bargain in a situation where your objective is to taste maximum items.<br/> <br/>Dessert:  It is a really difficult task to single out one particular item as their dessert section holds pure                 bliss for sweet lovers. Yet there was one item which caught my attention more as it was different from the others. It was Date Pudding. I bet it has a lot of calories yet it tasted a bit like Gajar ka halwa with a pleasant twist.<br/><br/>I would love to visit the place again for another delightful meal.<br/>*********************************************************************************************************<br/>TIP: If you feel you can taste everything that they offer in their massive buffet menu then please drop         the idea. That is an IMPOSSIBLE TASK.

Westin definitely stands up to its name and reputation. The hotel incorporated a mix of bengal and international standards and is truely remarkable. I am a sucker for ratings and is very stringent in giving a place 5 star but just could not resist westin. Not just for its food or ambience but also because the well trained courteous staffs who guide you till your last bite, serves you promptly with a smile and is looking after every guests needs. Hats off to the chefs and souz chefs. A place can be judged by its people and westin stood high in that section. <br/><br/>Now coming to food my target was the Sunday Brunch because of its innovation,live counters and fresh produce. The buffet comes at a pretty of Rs 1399/- without tax and with tax it was around 1650/-. The price does absolute justice or even more if i am to add. <br/><br/>The buffet had chaat counter,fuchka counter,live fish counter where they were tossing up katla,parshey,king fish,prawns,tilapia etc. , italian counter serving pasta and ravioli, cold cuts section comprising of hams and chicken and more, cheese section,salad section,chinese section,noodles or wok section, roasted section, bread section,main course section , seafood section and lastly a humongous section for desserts. No human can have this many food but i had to try them all even if it was just a tiny bite.<br/><br/>The king fish and prawns tossed was superb with a side vinaigrette which complemented the fried fish. The salmon gravalax was to die for and i had a second helping of that. The chinese fish and chicken items were lip smacking, the soup was light and fresh, ravioli just melted in your mouth, the seafood section had oysters,lobsters,shrimps & crabs and they beautifully blanched. I tried oyster for the very first time and i will not lie, it didn’t suit my palate but the rest were yum. In the main course there was mutton biryani,mutton rarah, chicken biryani and they all were bang on taste not too spicy or heavy. The chilly salan was delicious. Lastly the desserts were superb. International and bengali sweets were there although i could not try all and by now you know why but whatever i tasted were all extremely new and finger licking good and not overtly sweet. They also had egg , sandwich and roll sections which i gave a miss as i am no monster😜 but i am sure they all lived up to very high standards. Lastly they had brownie section and an ice cream section to put an happy ending to your meal. They also serve rum based mojitos for a top of of Rs.450/-. <br/><br/>A true gastronomic experience.At the end of the course i could barely move. But i relished each & every item and left with a fulfilling & soulful feeling. Definitely visiting westin again for their fabulous brunch. Kudos to the team!
Ishita Dan
Amazing food! Buffet totally worth it @1399/- <br/>Excellent service and the interiors are beautiful. Really courteous staff. Definitely recommend visiting once :)
Kushal Ruia
To start offz the atmosphere is very good and the staff is very polite and attentive. I found the dishes a bit overpriced and very less options for vegetarian dishes in the Ala Carte Menu. A request from my side would be to revise the menu a bit.
Arijit Saha
Great ambience and hospitality!!<br/>Simply no comments for the food 😋.<br/>Apart from the food it is a nice place to spend some valuable tiime with ur special ones.<br/>Overall the experience was mindblowing!!<br/><br/><br/>

Thank you Westin for all the services and really a good grand buffet with full of variations.<br/>Will visit over n over.Keep up the good work.
Reema Pathak
There are places which serve you a hearty food & some places just blow you away with the food along with the beautiful ambience and shades of elegance.The Westin has beautifully enlisted itself in the second Group!<br/>The buffet spread got us crazy with options!<br/>From outstanding live counters for wok & italian to beautiful breads!<br/>The veg starters rice risotto & akhroti tikki were such refreshing selections.<br/>The main course was splendid too but what made the sweet tooth like me go awe, was the dessert platter!<br/>From the fresh fruits,cheesecake,premium IceCreams selection and Indian delicacies like rasmalai & gajar ka halwa , Westin hits the top of the buffet list in the city!<br/>The urbane, plush vibe takes the service to next level. <br/>P.s - do drop by the poolside for delight of the eyes!<br/>M coming back soon with my Husband!😊
Devlina Talapatra

Ankit Mitra
1st of all let me make one thing clear this restaurant deserves 4.5, but as per the new rule of Zomato I can only give either 4 / 5.<br/><br/>The visit to this restaurant, was a due, long long due. At last we make ourselves available for the lavish 5 star experience.<br/><br/>Location:<br/>___________<br/><br/>It is at Newton. To be specific, it is between narkelbagan and eco park gate 2. Twin big towers are very easy to locate for sure. This restaurant is at the 10 th floor of Westin.<br/><br/>Ambience:<br/>____________<br/><br/>It is lavish, nicely decorated and gives u a beautiful view of the city from one end. The place where the food is there( especially on the chaat, live counter, dessert, salad section) the decoration is on top notch.<br/><br/>Food:<br/>_______<br/><br/>We went for a weekday lunch buffet. The buffet is pretty big to full your stomach ( but if you ask for a comparison it is less than the spread of JW).<br/><br/>® Starters:<br/>__________<br/><br/>There was four veg and three non veg startes.<br/><br/>© Highlights:<br/><br/>✓ Grilled chicken<br/>✓ Fish<br/>✓ Mango chicken kebab<br/>✓ tandoori chicken roll<br/>✓ crispy baby corn<br/><br/>® Bread Section<br/><br/>® Chaat Counter<br/>____________________<br/><br/>© Highlights:<br/><br/>✓ BHEL puri<br/>✓ Jhal Muri<br/>✓ Pani Puri<br/><br/>® Pasta Live counter<br/>______________________<br/><br/>The prepre the pasta as per your choice of sauce and ingredient.<br/>We took chicken white pasta. That was pretty good.<br/><br/>® Noodles Live Counter:<br/>__________________________<br/>You have the choice of noodle and ingredient there. Chicken, fish, prawn, veggies any thing you can choose.<br/>We went for prawn noodles, that was superb.<br/><br/>® Continental live counter<br/><br/>® Salad and cold cut section:<br/>______________________________<br/><br/>Well this section also had pretty good variety.<br/><br/>Highlights:<br/>✓ octopus salad<br/>✓ chicken salad<br/>✓ pork salad<br/>✓ ham<br/>✓ salami<br/>✓ becon<br/>✓ noodles salad<br/><br/>® Main course:<br/>_________________<br/><br/>We are unable to taste all the items there. As you can understand we were pretty much full. But one thing I can say, simple dish tastes also superb here in main course.<br/><br/>Highlights:<br/><br/>✓ Patal masala, yellow dal, cabbage curry - this is also apt for Jain's<br/>✓ Veg section: Basanti Begun, Cholar Dal, Dhingri Matar, palong Bari, paneer kalimirch, aloo posto - taste as I mentioned was very very nice<br/>✓ Rice : plain rice, peas polao, mutton biryani<br/>✓ Mach er jhol, mutton, chicken, raita<br/>✓ varitey of pickels<br/>✓ varitey of papad<br/><br/>® Season Highlight ( Mango)<br/>_______________________________<br/><br/>This portion needs a special mention. I can only say they truly justifies their name " Seasonal Taste".<br/><br/>The have a big display of mangoes over there. Gives you a feel of market. And now comes the surprise, we can choose the mango over there, there are mangoes already cut there.<br/><br/>And the most special: Aam Lassi - just mind-blowing.<br/><br/>© Dessert:<br/>____________<br/>This section is huge. Near about 20 items were there. The display is mind-blowing. Some of them tasted superb. But yes I feel some of tastes a bit monotonous (like for some itemized it was good, okay type - noting to relish about)<br/><br/>Highlights:<br/><br/>✓ Apple Pie<br/>✓ 6 Bengali Sweet ( including misti doi)<br/>✓ Mango Cake<br/>✓ Fresh Fruit Cake<br/>✓ Kheer<br/>✓ Chocolate Moose<br/>✓ Milk Crumble ( cup cakes)<br/>✓ Mango Moose<br/>✓ Fresh Fruits ( apple, papaya, watermelon)<br/>✓ Four type ice cream with dressing<br/><br/>The experience was very nice. The lovely decorated place with good food with such good hospitality. A big thumbs up 👌<br/><br/>To conclude the whole food experience: the quality is just superb. Some of the food was really tasted superb. Some of them could have been better. But yes we had enough there to relish about.<br/><br/>All that cost : 1179 INR ( include 18 percent GST) for lunch buffet per head. ( Includes no welcome drink)<br/><br/>To the mangament : thanks for hosting us. It was a lovely experience. Just a small suggestion : I felt there is some taste varitey lagging in dessert section. Otherwise it is a lovely day out there 😊<br/><br/>To all : give it a try, for a lovely food and fine fine experience.<br/>

Had a lovely lunch buffet at seasonal tastes - The Westin Kolkata.! My first visit to this new property. It was a great experience . The foods are very delicious! The live counter chefs are also very GD as they made yummy pasta ND Noddles for us! All the associates are very helpful specially George and Ankit- the tall guy ( if I'm not wrong) took care of us throughout the buffet. Great ambience! Lovely view! Enjoyed a lot.

Great hospitality, lovely ambience & delicious food. It was a great experience to dine on with a beautiful view of the town. Variety of cuisines to munch on. The Jain counter i.e. No Onion-No Garlic counter is something unique. To add on, the 'Mango Mela' has just started. It is well conceptualized with 10 varieties of mangoes and other yummy preparations out of Mangoes. A must try for Mango lovers!👌
Manish Kumar
Sunjar is very nice boy his service is very good.I am happy with his hospitality.I wish he go very high in his professional career. Good luck.
Kaushani Das Gupta
It has a wonderful ambience. It is on the 10th floor of The Westin with a very beautiful view. The food was really great and the service they provide is worth a appreciation. Everyone is very helpful and polite.
Siddhant Bajoria
I went to this place with my better half after reading raving reviews by other fellow foodies. And I must say that most of them are absolutely correct to review this place a 5/5. Be it the ambience, the view, the spread, the presentation, service and last but not the least the taste. We were absolutely delighted to have dined here. Our stomach ran outta space but the heart and soul wanted more. It is just an amazing overall experience and I must say that currently they are one of the finest place to dine.<br/>I recommend other food lovers to try out this place and go through an amazing experience. Everything about this place is just top notch. There is plenty of variety in each section and both vegetarians and non vegetarians will have plenty to rave about. Lastly the dessert is just yum yum yum yum. Don't forget to keep some place in your tummy for the dessert.<br/>I wish all the more success to the management and thank you for the wonderful experience.

Food here is good. A bit expensive but overall nice ambience and good service. Must visit once if you are in Kolkata. It is close to the airport.

<br/>Huge buffet spread<br/><br/>Nice food<br/><br/>Lot of options some are really good while something’s are ok can be better.<br/><br/>Felt in adding multiple cuisine they have lost little focus on taste in few dishes.<br/><br/>Even the dessert spread is big but only few things worth trying.<br/><br/>Very nice ambiance, awesome view.<br/><br/>Very warm staff.<br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/>

what a wonderful experience we had. We were a group of 40 people and opted this place for our team dinner. Starting from the warm welcome to the overwhelming decor and ambience it was just perfect. Being a 5star the buffet price is reasonable and the wide range of variety is very appealing. The live counter foods were just to die for. they have a great desserts section and all tastes too good. You should definitely pick this place to celebrate your special day.

The Westin has the best Buffet in Kolkata ! Yes, you heard that right. Sunday Market Brunch has all the produce selected and hand-picked by the Chef himself.<br/>Starting from Asian cuisine like Thai Green Curry(it was heavenly), 4 types of Biriyani(Gosht Biriyani is to fir for, with raita), Stir Fried Noodles(I had the prawn one- the Prawns were succulent and the noodles hasd sufficient veggies) to Turkish Delights like Baklava(Truly delicious!), this lavish spread bears it all.<br/>The Buffet also has Bengali dishes like Ghee Bhaat, Shorshe Maach, Potol er Dolma, etc.<br/>Also, it has amazing spread of cold cuts section, Italian Pasta section(The duck and sake ravioli is too good), Rajasthani Chat section, cheeses and a lovely waffles and pancakes counter!<br/><br/>Other than Salads(Carribbean chicken salad was too good), it also has kebabs and a special counter dedicated to just fish(had the paturi, loved it!)!<br/>The deserts section will definitely make you drool! It has deserts like Coconut Dome, Fruit Pie, Citrus Pie, Chocolate Dome, Cupcakes, Rashomalai, Mishti Doi, etc.<br/><br/>This is open to all on every Sunday 12:30-3pm.<br/>Price: 1399/-(per head). I recommend this to every one of you. Save up and go there! It's worth it!

I opted for a dinner buffet at the Westin last night and I've come back home feeling exhuberant and satisfied. They had a Bengali, Mughlai, Asian, Jain counter along with breads, salads, cheese, cold cuts. It was fairly elaborate and very authentic. I loved the biriyani, mutton rezala and chaap which were aromatic, tasty yet not heavy. The desert section was a delight! A varied range of well crafted deserts that are heavenly! Even though there were things that didn't appeal to my taste buds but their hospitality made me feel really good. I was looking for the Italian counter and since it had been replaced by the Bengali counter for Poila Boishakh they came back to me later saying the chef would make something Italian that I'd like. Things like these make you want to come back again! The ambience is realaxing and peaceful. It was an experience that I'd like to have again.

We went for lunch in Westin. The service is very good. They switch plates whenever you complete one serving. So Everytime you go to get an item, you will take a fresh plate. <br/>The food is reasonably good in taste and have a lot of varity including Bengali foods. But the main attraction should be the desert counter. It has so huge collection of sweets, fruits, cakes and other stuff, you would have to get three plateful to taste all. <br/>The floor has lot of space and does not look congested.<br/><br/>I have not given 5 stars because of lesser varity of starters. Otherwise it is a great place to go for 1100.<br/>Also it has 20% corporate discount.

Prity Poddar - Veg Food And Reviews
Dec 2017:<br/><br/>Fine Dining With Panache @ Seasonal Tastes - The Westin Kolkata Rajarhat ☺<br/><br/>One of the latest brand of hotels to have entered the City of Joy, The Westin Kolkata Rajarhat is situated right opposite New Town Eco Park. It is one of the tallest buildings of the city and occupies 32 floors.<br/><br/>Seasonal Tastes is it's 24 hours operational and as of now solo diner. It offers a mix of Indian, Asian and European fare and serves lavish lunch and dinner buffets, apart from the usual tailored-to-perfection à la carte dishes. It also serves 'Superfood Rx' breakfast dishes for the health conscious and 'Eat Well Menu for Kids' for the kids.<br/><br/>Last year around Christmas, I was invited at Seasonal Tastes for a fine dining tasting session. <br/><br/>Prior to settling down for an elaborate dinner meal, I did a tour of their buffet tables and was pleasantly surprised to find, not only enough vegetarian wares, but three vegetarian sabjis prepared without any onion or garlic!<br/><br/>Apparently, the restaurant's buffet area has a pre designated Jain corner which serves three different Jain sabjis in all of their buffets. Alongside, their menu also carries Jain food options.<br/><br/>The entire buffet as such was quite lavish, rather non ending, with a vast spread of assorted - salads, condiments, breads, desserts (both western and Indian), live counters and main course dishes.<br/><br/>Specially curated by the restaurant's supervising Chef, my food tasting comprised of the following dishes -<br/><br/>- Subz Shorba: Just to have a taste of the generic food on display, I requested for this Shorba from the buffet selection.<br/><br/>Served in a soup bowl, the Shorba mostly tasted of mushroom. It was well seasoned and tasted nice.<br/><br/>- Crisp Polenta Cornette: It was the amuse-bouche for the evening, specially prepared by the supervising Chef. Served in a small mason jar, it was kind of a deep fried cornmeal wrap stuffed with Mexican style salad and beans filling.<br/><br/>It tasted spicy, crunchy and nice.<br/><br/>- Assiette of Tomato, Bocconcini and Pesto: Placed like a semi arc on the sides of a circular disc, it was a beautiful looking salad of tomatoes, bocconcini cheese and pesto sauce. A few rocket leaves, melon balls, balsamic caviars, thin turnip roundels and the likes were deftly strewn around for visual appeal.<br/><br/>'Bocconcini are small mozzarella cheeses the size of an egg. Like other mozzarellas, they are semi-soft, white and rindless unripened mild cheeses.' They tasted quite good.<br/><br/>The Salad vegetables were fresh and aptly crunchy.<br/><br/>- Cauliflower & Truffle Soup With Parsley Foam: Served in an extra thick bottomed glass, this soup was a fine display of culinary marvel and molecular gastronomy.<br/><br/>The piping hot white hued thick soup at the base was topped with warm green hued bubbly foam. The whole presentation looked quite soothing.<br/><br/>The soup had distinct tastes of cauliflower and parsley. It's not really easy to work with cauliflower in a mashed form and pair it with other elements. But herein, the flavors of cauliflower and parsley complimented each other, with a mild hint of truffle in the background. The Soup tasted excellent.<br/><br/>- Lavash & Bread Platter: A square and sturdy wooden tray came lined with a generous portion of assorted health food seeds. A cluster of in-house baked Soft Buns, Ciabatta Bread and Sourdough Bread were placed atop the seeds. A glass containing assorted in-house made Lavash and Breadsticks was placed alongside. The glass was also lined with the aforementioned seeds at the bottom.<br/><br/>The whole presentation looked quite nice. Since it was in my to-eat-list for long (thanks to well researched food shows on TV), I opted for the Sourdough Bread. Apparently, it takes a week to make them and the process is quite tedious! It was expectantly crackling and dry, but still had a mild bitter aftertaste, which kind of went well with the aforementioned fancy soup.<br/><br/>The Lavash were a revelation. Some were coated with sesame seeds, while some were coated with nigella seeds. A couple of them were hued in green and coated with poppy seeds. I tasted a bite or two of all of them and all of them tasted fresh, crunchy and quite good. I never expected to find such nice taste in Lavash!<br/><br/>- Mushroom Risotto: Served in a thick basined dish, the thick and creamy Risotto came uniformly garnished with sauted schimezi mushrooms, small sprigs of parsley and paper thin small sheets of cheese.<br/><br/>The Risotto was gooey, grainy, buttery and wholesome. It tasted excellent. The petite schimezi mushrooms were relatively dry, but nice to look and nibble. The dish tasted quite good.<br/><br/>- Timbale of Eggplant and Zucchini with Smoked Tomato Sauce: At the centre of a circular dinner plate, placed atop an uneven bed of smoked tomato sauce, a cheesylicious cylinder of layered aubergines and zucchinis, along with some slices of colored bell peppers, topped with almost double in diameter olive and parmesan crisp i.e. a thin, crispy, delicate disc of cheese, was served. The crisp was further topped with some greens.<br/><br/>The dish was a vegetarian take on the otherwise non vegetarian Timbales. It was well cooked, well presented and had a mild smoky whiff. The crisp paired well with the veggies. The tomato sauce was average. The dish tasted good.<br/><br/>- Makai Methi Bhujia with Lachcha Paratha: This was from their stable of Jain aka no onion no garlic preparations.<br/><br/>Makai Methi Bhujia was a semi dry preparation comprising of almost equal ratio of sweet corn kernels and fresh fenugreek leaves. The gravy was mostly made of fresh cream and tomato but devoid of any of the latter's tangy taste.The sabji contained a good presence of dry mango powder (amchoor) which emitted a nice flavor.<br/><br/>It was well cooked, delicious and tasted at par with my earlier tasting of the one with onion and garlic!<br/><br/>The Lachcha Parathas were expectantly soft, flaky and tasted good.<br/><br/>- Chocolate Tart: It was an eye appeasing artwork depicting the culinary genius of the in-house kitchen. <br/><br/>Made of 72% cacao Venezuelan chocolate, the Tart was adorned all around with the following elements - citrus compote, nut crumble, chocolate ice-cream, mascarapone cheese, hazelnuts and assorted chocolate pieces. A non-edible decorative bell was placed atop the Tart. <br/><br/>In fact, the whole presentation was in tune with the then prevalent Christmas spirit.<br/><br/>The Tart tasted quite good. The crumble and the ice cream were excellent. The entire dessert gave out a happy feel. <br/><br/>The entire crockery range was white ceramic. The staff were well trained and courteous.<br/><br/>Soon, The Westin plans to open two new restaurants - EEST and Vedic. The former will be Pan Asian fine dining and the latter will serve vegetarian fare from all around India, along with a special vegan menu.<br/><br/>Timings & Pricing:<br/><br/>Breakfast Buffet: 6:30 am - 11:00 am @ Rs. 1,000/- plus tax<br/><br/>Lunch Buffets: 12:30 pm - 3:00 pm @ Rs. 1,250/- plus tax<br/><br/>Dinner Buffet: 7:00 pm - 11:00 pm @ Rs. 1,500/- plus tax<br/><br/>Sunday Brunch: 12:30 pm - 3:00 pm @ Rs. 1,399/- plus tax<br/><br/>Average Pricing For Two: Rs. 3,000/-<br/><br/>#vfr239

I’ve dined here twice and must admit that both experiences were great! The buffet offers choices in indian, jain, italian & asian. The salad counter on a sunday brunch was a delight. Capers, olives and cheese are wonderful additions. On a weekday lunch the salad bar does not offer as many choices. Asian live counter offers wok tossed noodles, ramen, thai curry and more. In italian you can choose from raviolis to penne in various sauces. Desserts are in plenty ranging from both indian to western desserts. Ambiance is lively with a wonderful view of the city. Overall for a buffet their quality of food is far superior than most hotels in the city. Looking forward to a third visit! <br/>Rahul Arora Raina Kshetry (aka A Pinch Of Salt) Luna Chatterjee (Madly_Food_Lover) Ankur Banik

It was my sister’s birthday and we chose The Westin for the dinner. The restaurant at the 10th floor is really a treat for the eyes as you get to see the entire Rajarhat and Eco park from there. Now coming to the food, there are a variety of food spread and you have to try each and every one of them. I must mention here the staffs are extremely courteous and George who was attending us was a gem of a person, you would love interacting and he will suggest and bring you the best dishes available out there. I would rate it a perfect 5 as I couldnt find any single flaw. Definitely a must visit.

Visited this place today and had a lunch buffet. The ambience is beautiful and the food was amazing. The restaurant is at the 10th floor with a magnificent view of eco park and the entire New town. The seating arrangement is pretty good and seats are very comfortable.<br/>The staffs are well behaved and were courteous too.<br/>There are separate live counters for Asian, continental, and separate counters each for starters, main course and desserts.<br/>Starters section had many varieties....3 veg and 3 non veg... grilled chicken was the best among them...<br/>Salads section had also many varieties....turkey, ham, chicken salami, eggs, and many others...<br/>It had two kinds of soups one veg and one non veg....the soup tasted good....<br/>Also had the lamb and fish from the continental section.<br/>We also had pasta(3 types) and from the Chinese live station we had sea food fried rice....and beef stir fry.....<br/>Now coming to the main course....we didn't had many....but the foods we had tasted good.....<br/>Lastly but not the least... coming to the desserts....it had 20-25 types of desserts ....all the desserts tasted really awesome....it also had 6 types of ice creams.....which tasted good......<br/>Loved their buffet......<br/>Much visit again.....

i with my friend went to seasonal tastes for lunch buffet. they have a lovely environment. the staffs were very friendly. the dinning area and the kitchen was beautifully made and decorated. a wide range of dishes were availble and we were worried if we wud miss any of the dishes. the starters were the best. i loved the chicken kebabs, turkey , pasta (from the live counter), badaam ka halwa the most from all the items. to be honest there were so many desserts in options but most of them same pastries just having d difference in flavours. well overall it was a great experience.
Subhankar Dutta
Best buffet in town, at the price they are offering!<br/>But whatever you do don't order Ala-carté. Its a complete rip-off!! ₹450+tax for a glass of watermelon juice! ₹500 for a tiny can of disgusting Pepsi (no, it wasn't even Thumbs-Up, so it was a double regret!)<br/>But well, it was my fault I didn't ask the Ala-carté prices before I ordered. (Whoever looks at the menu while having a buffet?)<br/>But that's just something to avoid, and in no way takes away the awesomeness of this place. From now on, all our team lunches are going to happen here! and I'll also be visiting for every personal occasional dine-out.<br/><br/>-They have 2 live counters, for pasta and noodles respectively. And the taste from both, was lip-smacking!<br/>-20 international desserts, 4 Indian desserts! All amazing.<br/>-Make your own salad counter was average, would have expected some dressings (Mayo, Ceasar salad, Ranch, thousand island sauce, for eg.) to be available. But otherwise fine.<br/>-Biryani was nice, bengali dishes were a great touch.<br/><br/>Frankly, we spent more time walking around contemplating what to have first (or next)...felt like a kid in a candy store!<br/><br/>

This was my first visit to the seasonal taste at the westin. I went for the lunch buffet and after listening to many people recommending this place I had huge expectations. I will say this place did match up to the expectations but it did not exceed it. <br/><br/>Ambience: <br/>Located at the tenth floor of the westin the ambience is beautiful. If u get a table that gives u the outside view you can enjoy the panorama of the city as u dine. I think the ambience was the biggest positive. <br/><br/>Food: <br/>This was a mix of positives and negatives. The salads and cold cut section has good variety and authentic taste. I am not sure whether the continental section would suit the Indian taste buds as it is extremely authentic and u kind of crave for the little zing that Chilli flakes or oregano can add. The mains were Decent. I did not enjoy the zafrani pulao. <br/>The best part of the course was stir fry section and desserts.<br/>The desserts spread is huge so much so that it is impossible to taste everything. <br/>Particular dishes I enjoyed:<br/>The white chocolate entrement<br/>The milk chocolate mousse with crumbles<br/>Citrus tart <br/>Crossiant pudding.<br/>Murg reshmi Tikka and the fish starter <br/><br/>Service : <br/>The service was good and I was asked about my opinion on food. When I mentioned I did not like a few items they were quick to suggest alternatives. No negatives on the part of service. <br/><br/>My honest suggestion would b that they should mention to the diners that the best part of the buffet is the dessert spread. Because otherwise by the time you reach the dessert course you would be too full to indulge in it completely. The Indian mains has a lot of room for improvement. However I did like the place, would visit again and update the review accordingly 👍.

Heard a lot of this newly opened luxury & what better occasion to take my entire Capgemini team to try the lunch buffet ..the food & the interiors made my heart melt at the very frist sight .. the live counters serve some various pasta & continental foods for something to die for , so was the starters & the deserts ..talking abouts the deserts, they are the probably served & have the best deserts out of all the 5 stars in Kolkata ...<br/><br/>
Debanjan Basu
Could not have asked for more. Awesome food and ambience. Behavior of the staffs were equally good. Today I went with my colleagues but surely would like to visit this place with my family very soon.

One of the best buffets going around in Kolkata now.Talk of the platter or the ambience or staff courtesy,everything would make you want to come again.A must visit if you are in and around new town

Amazing experience at Westin. Lavish buffet spread to satisfy different taste buds. Very friendly staff. Saurabh who managed my table was extremely gracious. Looking forward for many more experiences with this place.
Kamalesh Bhowmick
Great Experience of varities of foods. Awasome taste. Great ambience. Live Counter. I believe this is best in class and also value for money in respect of star hotel. Must try.
Vidhya
I absolutely loved my experience at Seasonal Tastes. There was valet parking available so we didn't face any issue with parking.However the interior of the hotel is so classy yet bengali.We were welcomed by the 10floor tall wall art of goddess Durga.After reaching the restaurant by lift on the 10th floor,we were mesmerised by the view of the eco park we got from that height.<br/>Though they had both ala carte and buffet options available,we opted for Buffet option.The guy who was serving us firstly explained us in detail everything that was available on that day's buffet menu and gave us a tour.<br/>Now coming to the food,I can't even attempt to say all the items on the menu,the spread was huge.We started off with the salad (2-3variety), cheese( brie, elemental, gouda,cheddar) and cold cut section with different kinds of ham and salami.Different variety of nuts, topping,sauce,salad dressing and salsa were also available.Next we tried the roast chicken and Kashmiri gosht yakhni (shorba) both were so well cooked and tasted delicious. For starters there was 5-6variety of bread(soft roll,hard bun,pepper bun and rest I forgot) and 6variety of butter( plain butter,garlic butter, pepper butter and I don't remember the rest).There were 3 veg starters( crispy soft corn, cheese roll and paneer tikka) and 3 non veg starters( kathi roll, crispy chicken in black bean sauce,murgh malai tikka).<br/>I loved the black bean sauce preparation and the murgh tikka was extremely soft and tasty.<br/>There was two different live counters. From the pasta and risotto section, we ordered a sea food based red sauce pasta with squid,oyester,prawn and mussels.It tasted good. However I can't get over the great flavours of the preparation that the chef prepared for us from the stir fry section with squid,chicken,bacon,beef and prawn.It was so good that we repeated the order.<br/>By the time we reached the main course we were too full, so I just sampled the murgh pardhah biriyani, lamb rejala, majher jhal and murgh tikka masala. The Chicken in the biriyani was exceptionally soft and the the murgh tikka masla had the perfect flavour.Unlike all other buffet,the main course here tasted equally good.<br/>Finally coming to desserts,I can't name any as there were different types of tart, mousse, cakes etc. There were almost 15-20 types of dessert apart from the 4 types of bengali sweets. I tasted each of them.I loved all of them. There were 6 types of ice cream(nolen gur,mango,milk chocolate,dark chocholate,vanila,strawberry) and I tried nolen gur and mango flavour and both were the perfect way to end the sumptuous meal.<br/>The service was top notch.Every time we got up to get some more food,our tables were cleared and cleaned. The water was filled in the glasses timely. The manager also came up personally to us to ask for our feedback and if we wanted something more to be cooked for us.<br/>Lastly the bill usually is 999+5℅ tax.There was some corporate offer ongoing.So our bill came up to around 1800 with corporate discount which seemed pretty reasonable for the spread they had served.<br/>I would prefer this buffet over JW Marriott, Kolkata Lunch buffet any day.The view,the service and the delicious food made my day.<br/>I highly recommend this place to anyone in Kolkata who have not yet visited this place.
Abhinandan Kain
There are very few places where i opt for the buffet meal selection & trust me one of the finest experiences.<br/>One should definitely try the buffet menu here.<br/>Wide variety of cuisines like continental chinese indian thai, live counters as well.<br/>Had tried everything my appetite permitted.<br/>Their desserts are just irresistible.<br/>Would be again visiting for the sunday brunch very very soon
Aloka Bose
This was my first visit to the restaurant in Westin hotel last evening.... Right from the entry point to the 10th floor was just an amazing experience. We were a group of 22people from Wipro. They started with a welcome drink and the food counter was excellent... Live counter where chefs prepare food as per our choice... Tables were cleared every time without asking them to do so which just was fantastic... I would definitely tell everyone to visit this beautiful restaurant once to check out this place... This place has a beautiful swimming pool as well... Thank you once again entire team for making this evening so special... Aloka Bose
SHALINI SAHA
Buffet was really good ... very well behaved staff ... dessert section was the best ... overall it was a good buffet ... the buffet has veg , non veg and a jain section... there are live counters for pasta and noodles !
Gaurav Tamotia
Went for an early dinner and was rather disappointed with the overall experience. A large restaurant with simply no character is what comes to mind. The food wasn’t bad - indeed it was rather good; but the place seemed to cater to buffet lovers rather than somebody looking for an a la carte experience. So much so that the service staff looked a bit nonplussed when we asked for the menu. And since I avoid buffets as much as I can, it wasn’t a lot of fun.
Arkaprovo Roy
It is fantastic spread.. wonderful food grt staff.. especially atish chef Saurabh and chef Arpan .. very courteous very NYC will come back soon

A spacious and tastefully decorated place opposite eco park. It is located on the 10th floor giving the patrons a beautiful uninterrupted view of eco park and the kolkata skyline. The buffet was widespread with lots of cheeses.. Salads. The mains were divided into indian, chinese, continental.. Unlike most places the mains were really awesome. Each item was unique in their taste. The apricot lamb, bacon dish and the seafood dish were of exceptional taste. In the indian section the dhaba style chicken and the fish kalia along with moti pulao and keema pulao were delicious. There were two live counters.. One for chinese and the other for pasta. The food prepared live was fresh and delicious. Now to my favourite part.. The dessert section. They can compete with most and come out winner. I was spoilt for choice and had a go at many but also had to give up on almost an equal number. Special bow to the chocolate tart( rich gooey fine quality chocolate made it the best), lemon tart, tiramisu, opera pastry. Among fresh fruits loved the passion fruit. <br/>.
Dimple Hussain
went for buffet brunch today. food was nice, but not out of the world... but yes recommended.. can try once... bt ambience was not much great... d kind of hotel it is i was expecting smthng different n classy ambience.. anyways one can try it out.. worth d try atleast...
Vipul Agrawal
Although international food options are enough in the Buffet dinner menu, they have limited vegetarian options. Ambience is very Good. Staff attentive and friendly. Would suggest a visit to new place and try...
Souvik Bhattacharya
Westin the newest 5 star property in the city brings for the foodies their signature restaurant chain Seasonal Tastes. The restaurant presents cuisines from every corner of the world apart for Indian platter in their grandeur buffet spread. The dessert section has the largest array for delicacies. The unobstructed views of the cityscape from 10th floor is a bonus for the connoisseurs.
Pooja Ghosh Dastidar
Heard a lot about this newly opened luxury spread and what better occasion it could have been to take my entire team to try the lunch buffet. The gourmet food and the grandeur made my heart melt at the very sight. The live counters serving pasta and stir fry sea foods was something to die for. So was the starters and the desserts. Talking to desserts the spread from West to East was enough to tickle taste buds of anyone who tries it. The only things taht needs to be improves is the risotto with mushrooms and the chicken soup. I fount that too blunt. However the rest of the food and decor compensated it. We got a 20% discount on bulk corporate booking which made it to Rs 1000 per head approx. I would rather say its a throw away price for the connoisseur of gourmet food served. Hereby I attach few food pics for the viewed.<br/>INSTA ID: pooja_ghosh_dastidar

Located at near eco park, their lunch buffet has a huge selection of chainise, indian, continental, delicacies. We like their shepard's pie, baked sammen,fish and chicken starters and roast chicken and gravy. The also have a huge spread of desert. Their home made ice cream is top notch.but service was not up to the mark. <br/> We expected more from this kind of establishment.<br/><br/>All n all it was a plsnt exp.
Amit Agarwalla
Save yourself and avoid being bit by mosquitoes, plus completely untrained staff. This looks like it is not international chain of Westin hotels but a domestic version having no class or service. They should actually shut the place and start training of staff and do a thorough maintenance of the place.<br/>SHOCKED !!!
Arunashis Banerjee
Ambience is good. A large variety of desserts are available. Starters are few. You mostly need to order ur choice of food, but not sure that you will certainly get. Corporate discount is available. Good to experience once.
Debojit Paul II
This is a gem of a place. Located within the Westin hotel. Food is really nice and you have valet to park your car. Good place to be. The location is quite good too.
Sarbani Bagchi
This is absolutely one of the excellent buffets in town.<br/>Westin located at Rajarhat can be easily spotted and Seasonal Tastes is on the 10th floor.<br/>The food quality is excellent. I have been there twice.<br/>In starters they have veg and non veg kebabs, rolls,veg and non veg soups, a wide variety of veg and non veg salads, of which the waldorf salad and tuna salad deserve special mention. Also there are many types of cheeses, nuts and dry fruits. They have dahi vada as well. For mains there is a continental section of both veg and non veg each of the dishes in which is excellent. Live counters include pasta and noodles. The noodles tastes heavenly. I had mine with lots of squids, prawns and chicken. You should definitely have this. North Indian mains section is not that tasty as compared to the other sections but this is fully compensated with the beautiful spread of desserts. They have jain dishes on the buffet too.<br/>The desserts are not only droolworthy but are lip smacking too. There are cheesecakes, strawberries and whipped cream, fruit tarts, tiramisu, indian sweets, various cakes, fresh fruits and 6 different flavours of ice cream. <br/>This place is a food lover's paradise.<br/>The staffs welcome here with a lot of warmth.<br/>Though the pocket pinch is a bit high but occasional binging won't harm.<br/>Please do drop in here.<br/>Happy eating, foodies❤
Anindya Bardhan Chowdhury
Sunday brunch is a winner. Probably the best buffet in the town for me even considering Marriott. The view from the place is awesome. The staff is very helpful. Also the watermelon cooler was very refreshing. It’s a must visit.
Saubhik Ghosh
Well i have rarely seen such a lavishly spread buffet with such premium ingredients. But the problem is their taste. Each and every item barring the ice creams, bengali murgir jhol and fish harissa steak tasted pretty average and sometimes even below par. Yes they looked super good from their presentation but as soon as we tasted them, they were a huge disappointment. We were extremely disappointed with the buffet lunch. Considering the buffet price, I would not say it was worth it. But other aspects such as the ambience , view from the restaurant, staff and their courteousness were excellent and deserves a special mention. But they need to change or address their culinary team to better our gustatory experience.

Bad food. Bad service. People are ignorant about you. Food is not of good taste. Probably the quality was bad because it was a 50% discount offer.

I visited this place yesterday after booking via Dineout App.I visited for dinner buffet.The ambience is terrific and the food was equally amazing.Alot of variety on offer and most items were very nice.The service was very fast and the staff was very well behaved.A truly wonderful experience.Costed around 2000 for 2 after applicable discount.

Up to the mark.....))<br/>In simple words I enjoyed it more than Marriott buffet spread<br/>Had both oriental and italian live counter, dryfruit section, papad section, different kinds of breads, u can curve your own piece of roasted chicken,<br/>Though there is less amount of starters, yet u can't complain as there is loads of food.<br/>Indian, continental, oriental, all of it<br/>We also ordered wine and the special day was made extra special with the ambience, panoramic view, courteous staff and ofcourse the palatable food.<br/>Aa must try and will visit again surely......)))Reetam Bhowmick

Great spread.<br/>I loved the salad spread along with the seasoning sauces and the cheese available. Starters were a little disappointing, 2 each in veg and non-veg. Soups were ok. I loved the Oriental cuisines which was live counter. Italian was more than ok. Another live counter. The spread of Indian dishes were good. The chef helped us with a portion of dal makhni as well when we asked for it.<br/>The dessert spread is huge and amazing.<br/><br/>Ambience-4<br/>Interiors-3.5<br/>Food-4<br/>Service 4.5

I got the opportunity to visit the place today with my office-mates for Buffet lunch.It’s relatively a new 5 star property. The decor and ambience were excellent. The restaurant is at the 10th floor with a magnificent view of NewTown on one side and food counters on the other side. The Buffet was priced at 999 plus taxes.The food quality was excellent,The variety on offer was mind-boggling. We were tempted to try almost everything. The cheese & crackers platter were a welcome new addition to the buffet. There were live grill section & Italian counter.Though i had a lot of food to sample.I think the following were standout :Seared meat & prawns.Fettuccini with Lamb Ragu (The lamb was so soft)Asian stir-fried veggies with prawns. (hint of fragrant garlic)Red Velvet Cake (WoW) ,Cheese platter section (yummy)Though we went there for a short period of time, I was impressed by the quality and service on offer.Would surely plan another outing in the near featureKeep it up :)

It’s relatively a new joint. The moment you step in the hotel you know it’s 5 star property with a Bengali touch to it. The decor and furniture @ superb. The restaurant is at the 10th floor with a magnificent view of NewTown on one side and food counters on the other side. The seating arrangement is pretty good and seats are very comfortable. <br/>There is valet Parking in the hotel.<br/>The food quality is 5/5<br/>The brunch spread is 5/5<br/>The service is 5/5<br/>There is only one minus point and that is when over telephone I asked what’s the buffet rate they said it’s Rs 1650 per adult and half Rs 825 for a 9 year old but in the bill they charged Rs 1650 for the child which I thought was not at all correct.<br/><br/>But then there were a lot of good things to talk about apart from the billing goof up. <br/><br/>Hope to visit this place soon and yes without the billing goof up.<br/><br/>23/06/2018:<br/>Went again for a buffet dinner. Spread was good. Quality of food was also pretty good. 3/4 live counters were there. Was given complimentary lemon drink. Divyarup was taking good care. He was pretty attentive and always similing. The place was well lit and decent ambience. My daughter(9 years) was given 50% discount. Overall a good experience.

We visited the restaurant this January. We had an amazing experience... The food was fantabulous and so was the ambience.. For tandoori lovers.. I would say this is the place.. Have the full chicken tandoori.. Its juicy and lip smacking.. The staffs are very cordial.. The Head Chef Mr. Debayan and his team interacts with the guests in a very cordial nature and customers experience love with food. Its a must try for foodies.. And it doesnt actually pinch your pocket considering the experience you will get.. Go try your taste buds.. Mr. Debayan and his team are waiting..
Rahul Goel
Ambiance is very nice..food is awesome. Lot of live counters. I had Sunday brunch and was fantastic. I had Brunch twice at JW Marriott, but would rate this the best in Kolkata
Kriti Jhunjhunwala
I was there with my husband for the Valentine’s Day dinner buffet especially curated for that day. The decor looked really nice. They were serving complimentary drinks on each beautifully decorated tables. The buffet spread was pretty lavish too. Food tasted really good right from the starters till the pasta and the rolls. The gastronomy chaat section was the best for me. Although the dessert section was the widest, the most thoughtful of desserts ever seen by me according to the theme and everything which I tasted was awesome.<br/>The only thing which bothered me a bit was, being a vegetarian we had very limited options. The non veg spread was five times than that for the vegetarians. Otherwise we had a great time. They also gave us a complimentary cake it being my husband’s birthday too, which tasted great. While leaving they gave us handcrafted chocolates too which was a very sweet gesture. <br/>Thank you so much for the lovely evening.
Prachi Agarwal
I went for Lunch buffet..!! Must say anyone who is a foodiee and likes to explore buffet menu should try this place..!!<br/>Being a Desert lover I was mad seeing their desert spread.. it was out of the world.. one can easily try and have all the deserts and be happy..;) <br/>I could have easily given 5/5 just for their desert menu but this place has to add-on some more of veg starters.. else this place is amazing.. :)<br/>
Tapoban Raha
Tasty food, great ambience, courteousness are three prime reasons to visit this place. Tried some prawns and chicken starters and they were awesome.
Rajarshi Chakraborti
They have a live Asian counter which has a great variety, from sea food to beef. The star here was the chicken sautĂŠed in South Asian Street food style and outstanding.<br/>If you like cold cuts, this place will make your day. They have Parma Ham among their good selection.<br/><br/>Can improve on deserts for the regular lunch buffet.
Kajal
I went to this place today for lunch just love the place. The foods was amazing I also tried mango and nut shake which was amazing. The people were really good and kind .The service was standard.I was served by Mr. Saurav Singh he was really kind .I really appreciate people out took care each guests so nicely. We were also complimentary drink as a Valentine treat 💓💓
Anuraag Mukherjee
Located at the 10th floor which provides the beautiful view of the city of joy......❤️❤️....The food was excellent starting ....the Thai soup was perfect.....the kebabs were taste to perfection.....the main course had variety of options from Indian to continental... specially loved the red snapper and braised lamb meat..... special mention is definitely the dessert section....it is by far the best in town ❤️❤️
Amarttyajit Sinha
1.Amaizing food.<br/>2.Top notch ambience.<br/>3.Services were quick and the stuffs were carrying away the plates regularly and were quite informative about the dishes. (As you may expect from a fine dine).<br/>4. And with the price drop in the lunch buffet, definitely a recommended place.
Asit Saha
What would you do if you land up in a place which resembles a culinary ocean, a gastronomic extravaganza, a delightful gourmet experience for your eyes and tastebuds...you are gobsmacked, bewildered and dumbfounded..you actually search for avenues to start... and what happens is you start from everywhere and end up nowhere...so this time during the Sunday brunch at Seasonal Tastes I was ultra careful not to abuse my palate and my stomach...I wanted to be an epicurean, not a glutton...did I succeed? Well partly...I just tasted the soups which were mundane to say the least, jumped on to the European starters... commendable, indian starters...chingri chop was fabulous...crispy coating over a succulent juicy prawn...prawn suimai the only face saving dimsum....by this time I was losing track...so I got back to the live counters, salt and pepper prawn, bhetki paturi and grilled scampi lifted my spirits..and probably made me realize that it is best to customize your food when running through a buffet.<br/>I sampled the sabz parda biryani...it was flavorful and innovative. Same cannot be said about the parda gosht biryani....lacked the zing and zest ..<br/>Ran for the cold salad section next...boy, it was a revelation. Parma ham, asparagus, melon..bits of interesting garnishes and it acted as a palate cleanser...<br/>I avoided the dessert section, but it is the most colorful, vibrant and sinful part of the spread, a feast for the eye...<br/>I opted for custom aloo kabli, street style to round up my sojourn...<br/>The staff all around were very polite and cordial, always willing to help lost customers like us...I could only savour Ten percent of what was on offer...and my verdict is ....give it a go for the sheer experience...even if your belly does not cooperate with you, your eyes will.....

As it's said - a third time's a charm. I had again visited seasonal tastes in the Westin, and was yet again greeted by the most professional and welcoming staff. The sheer ambience of the place was great and Ankit who served us for the night and Saurav were great. Hope to be coming again soon.<br/>P.S. I am Ojas Vyas writing from my mom's account.
Amrapali Sen
What a lavish spread!! The desert section deserves a special mention though I liked the continental section better than the Indian spread...
Akash Mishra
Went for a lunch buffet.<br/>Decor and ambience- as expected- was fabulous!! They have made it very spacious and comfortable!<br/>There are spearate live counters for Asian and Continental starters; and separate counters each for main course; deserts and salad preparations.<br/>As far as the tastes are concerened we loved everything; yet at the same time expected Asian varities could have been better. <br/>
Supratim Biswas
I, went with my family on 5th feb for buffet lunch.. I am so very happy with my decision. The food spread was huge, from continental, Italian, indian and the desserts – too good. The food was very fresh and each item (the ones, I checkboxed was fab !! ) I had to check the total spread twice to check out which ones I should keep on my bucket list .. finally I tried my best to complete all of them.. The Herb roasted Chicken, Murg tikka , Murg kathi roll – each one the chicken was so tender and perfectly cooked. The Kadai Gosht (lamb) with murg tikka biryani was just superb.. Now the live counters – once again you rock guys.. Risotto with white sauce – awesome and I luved the chinese live counter – had a bowl of noodles with chicken and veg (less spicy) for my 5yr old kid – she loved it so much.. then we had a bowl of egg noodles with veg & stir fried chicken & prawn with veg – it was superb.. The deserts (just check the pics) – the beauty of the deserts explains its tastes so much... And lastly the service and behaviour of the crew were incomparable – very friendly and waiting to help anytime.. <br/><br/>999/- + taxes & its worth every bit of it...Thanks Guys 
Suhani Verma
Went to Seasonal Test restaurant in Westin kolkata last Saturday. Had dinner buffet, food was delicious and service was to notche. Quality and selection of food suggested by chef Abhay was phenomenal. Support staff was friendly & ambience of restaurant was up to the mark. This was one of the evening to remember.
Arindam
We went to Westin for a Sunday night dinner at Seasonal Tastes. We opted for buffet. The quality of the ambience is sky high. Situated just near eco park and expressway, the view is surreal. It definitely adds to the value of your experience.<br/><br/>The buffet section is full of options, starting from salads, starters, main course, desserts. There were all types of options in every category to meet one's need. The veg section is having sufficient options for all sections. There were also a live counter where you can opt for any item you want from a selected options. <br/><br/>Overall it is a very nice experience and definitely worth a try, though it is bit costly without discount. <br/><br/>
Sandipan Bhattacharya
Since the hotel is only partially operational, this is the only restaurant that is available currently... I stayed there for one full day and had breakfast, lunch and dinner at the same restaurant and was pretty satisfied at the end of each meal... The array of dishes to chose from is vast, the presentation is outstanding and the staff are very helpful and welcoming... Apart from the items on the buffet, they have live counters too to dish out anything your heart desires... The desserts section is one to die for here... You are bound to be bowled over by the sheer number and quality of desserts on display, not to forget the presentation again... I would expect them to spice up their menu a bit once the hotel becomes fully operational, and would also like them to include pork and beef in the buffet, as well as work a bit more on the continental aspect... Also, the a-la carte menu looks very limited currently... Hope it is revamped too... <br/><br/>Prices - Lunch Buffet - Around 1200 all inclusive... <br/>Dinner Buffet - Around 1500 all inclusive...
Sharik Alam
One of the best hotel in town. <br/>Awesome ambiance, customer service upto the mark, variety of food..number of choices. <br/><br/>Will visit soon with family and friends
Sohini Sen Chakraborty
Beautiful.. is one word that comes to your mind the whole time you are here.. be it the ambience, the food (with numerous options ranging from elaborate salad counter to different soups and bread options, live pasta counter, live Chinese counter, full fledged Indian/Mughlai cuisine and oh! Don't even get me started on the dessert), the overall infrastructure, and last but definitely not the least, the hospitality. From entering the hotel till the time you go out of the building you will come across helpful faces who will seem genuinely happy to serve you. Compared to its competitors it's easier on your pocket as well- a Saturday lunch Buffet costs 999/- plus taxes. Overall a great experience and highly recommended for all foodies.
Sayon Das
Food: Foods taste good. Specialities are live Chinese cuisine and desert. They are somehow lagging on the salad and starter section. That’s it, they have wide variety foods which includes different Indian cuisine, continental, Chinese and pasta counter.<br/>Ambiance & Service: You would not be get a chance to complain about both. All the cooks and restaurant members are very helpful and cooperative.
Rahul Kotekar
One of the best buffets on offer. Lamb shanks were just mouth watering. Spaghetti agliolio was just amazing. Wide range of dessert spread and all of this at extremely reasonable pricing. Icing on the cake is the city view that you get from the restaurant. Will definitely visit soon.
Saikat S Ray
This place is serving the best buffet in town. Great food and magnificent ambience. The staff here is extremely cordial and helpful. Will definitely want to pay another visit soon.<br/>The live counters are an experience. If you want you may ignore the Indian spread (you will get it anywhere in Kolkata)<br/>The best part is the desserts. If you manage to just taste each one of those wonderful and colorful sweet dishes I am sure you will be full. The same may happen with the salads. Fantastic looking food which you can't resist.<br/>I did not try the a la carte menu which I believe is equally delicious.<br/>
Smriti Dutta
Amazing ambience<br/>Courtious staff and mouthwatering food. Must try... You will love the view of rajarhat from the 10th floor... <br/>A new place but its worth it
Protyai Ghosal
Went there on 26th January and opted for the dinner buffet option. And I am not kidding when I say that the buffet spread was huge; I have been to Oberoi, Taj Bengal, Marriott etc but those are nothing compared to this one. <br/>Having said that, everything was awesome; be it taste of the food, the ambience, service, variety in menu and specially the dessert. Just go for it :)
Anirban Roy
Been to Seasonal Taste within days from starting the operations, during Puja. Located on the 10th floor of Westin, it offers spectacular views. The interiors are aesthetically pleasing. Coming to the food, they had a huge buffet spread with options like oriental, continental, North Indian and Bengali among others. I tried a number of them and found extremely tasty. The desserts section is the star and covers pastries, Indian sweets, ice creams, puddings and what not perhaps the best in a buffet spread in Kolkata. The chocolate cake was super yum as well as the Ras malai. The baked gulab jamun was ecstasy. <br/><br/>Last but not the least is their service. I have seldom seen such wonderful and courteous staffs. They make the experience a memorable one. The price considering the service and the stature of the hotel is more than justified. <br/><br/>Would be visiting very soon.
Shikha Agarwal
I recently visited this place with a bunch of my foodie friends. It is such a gorgeous property! But I digress. The buffet was amazing and I was especially taken by the desserts selection as you can see from my pictures. You know how you find desserts that look really pretty but then when you go to savor it things dont add up? But these were just as yummy as they looked! My favorites were the Hazelnut cheesecake and the mixed nuts pie. Not too sweet and packed with flavor as well as texture. <br/><br/>They have live counters like you find at every buffet - wok station, Mexican, Italian, etc. What I found unique was that they had a chip counter featuring various vegetable chips which looked baked to me as well as an assortment of dips. And it was the first time I saw a buffet with a dry fruits section! <br/><br/>Lovely ambiance, beautiful presentation, unique stations/sections and amazing food. Definitely worth checking out!
Tanushree Chakraborty
The westin- located neat Mother's Wax Museum, Newtown. Seasonal Tastes is located at 10th floor of the westin. We went there to enjoy a luxury lunch buffet ..<br/>It is one of the best looking place in town. Literally I loved everything about this place. Interior is very beautiful. And the service needs a special mention here. All the staff are very well behaved and courteous. Had an outstanding experience there.<br/>From starter to dessert each section was widely spreaded. Buffet menu included various cousine like continental, indian, chinese, bengali,italian etc.<br/><br/>Starter section had many varieties. Grilled chicken was the best among them. Salad section was quite huge. Chat, dahi vada, prawn cocktail were also available in salad section. Main course included both bengali and mughlai cuisines. Biriyani, pulao, ghost and even the veg items tasted awesome. Along with non veg items there were so many veg items. But one must not forget to order from their pasta and noodle counter. We ordered white pasta and prawn noodles along with the vegetables we prefer. I don't like pasta that much. But it could be a great miss I skipped it. Both White pasta and noodles were superb in taste. Dessert section had a huge spread including fruits, pestries,mousse, ice creams and indian sweets.<br/>I enjoyed my day to the fullest. It was a lovely experience. Hope to visit again😊
Dr.Surottam Poddar
I am giving it a total 5/5 huge spread..... At 11th floor at the Westin, just beside eco park... It was a great experience to dine here....each and everything was a total luxury.... Huge spread continental, Indian, Italian, Chinese... Many kinds of starters, huge main course spread, live pasta and noodles counter, huge desert, chat and salad spread..... It was just Awsm.... This kind of spread is only comparable with jw Marriott and 363 of grand oberoy..... Total value of money..... Each and every item was excellent.... All the deserts were great ,may it continental or Indian or the freshly cut fruits... Huge salad spread.... 6 flavours of icecreams with many toppings.... It was just amazing..... Starters were also good.... Their behavior was very good, really courteous,humble and helpful..... Thank you seasonal tastes.... Coming back very soon..... Tanushree Chakraborty @

If anything other than the sheer infrastructure of the hotel is needed for one to be convinced that this place is a must visit, the service, ambience, food and interiors will surely convince you.<br/>The ambience and service are really (super emphasis) extraordinary. <br/>We were served by an extremely professional and experienced personnel named Ankit.<br/>Fantastic!!!
Saikat Sinha
We had a buffet dinner. It was a well balance between quality and quantity. Collection of salads and desserts were too good.<br/>Ambience: 5/5<br/>Food: 4.7/5<br/>Service: 4.9/5<br/>The view from the restaurant was also good part of our dinner.
Anky Vyas
Excellent food with extra ordinary service.. <br/>Ambience is definitely a five star<br/>"Ankit" - Thank you for your warm gesture and excellent service experience :)

I went here to celebrate my 1st love anniversary with my BF nd we took a lunch buffet! Now 1st thing 1st the reveiw Nd for me Hospitality gets a total of 5 stars , Food - 4.5 , Ambience - 5 Nd as it was our anniversary they also offered us with a complimentary cake which was vry sweet of them! In short totally loved the experience !❤️ Hope to visit der again soon!
Niraj Biswas
Our first visit to the Westin was a mixed bag. <br/><br/>We opted not to go for buffet which looked sumptuous and ordered from the menu. We ordered a chicken caesar salad, chicken club sandwich, and crab avocado sandwich. <br/><br/>On the positive side, service by George was phenomenal. He was attentive to every detail, knowledgeable about the hotel and very helpful. The view from the 10th floor is awesome and I am sure it will be even better when the bar and the restaurant moves to the 31st floor. <br/><br/>The reason I am giving it way less than a 5.0 is the exorbitant pricing, even by 5 star standards. I have been to the Hyatt and the JW Marriott recently, and have a good benchmark to judge the pricing from. The sandwiches and the salad were each bordering on Rs. 1000, which is really too much. Hopefully, management will consider this aspect of customer satisfaction soon and make the hotel more welcoming.
Gargi Gupta
Its too much expensive....cant effort normal people....food quality is normAl...but price is not effort any normal people...its totally high rated...not pocket freindly

Lovely ambience, prompt service & good food! The perfect combination to have. Must try the Bengali fish fry!<br/>A panaromic view of this part of the city takes you in to a serene environment!

I went here for my anniversary lunch. I opted for the buffet.<br/>Ambience: suits the 5 star tag, restaurant is quite big and view is really nice from the tenth floor.<br/>Food:<br/>The best part about this buffet is that it comes with 2 live stations. One for Italian and the other for Oriental.<br/>I had most of my food from the live counter. I started with Tom yum soup which was perfect.<br/>I then took a starter with prawns and squids which was well prepared by the chef, i took some flat noodles tossed with vegetables and chicken to go along with it.the chef was extremely courteous to listen to our exact choice of flavours and whip up food accordingly, its almost near to ala carte!<br/>I also took a seafood penne pasta, again made to order by the chef to suit my tastebuds. <br/>I tried the lamb and fish from continental section which was okay.<br/>There was a wide variety of Indian food, like any other buffet which I couldn't have!!! Because I headed for dessert, my favorite part of the meal.<br/>The dessert section is absolutely huge, with so much variety that one is sure to be confused!!! I loved the litchi pie the most. <br/>Staff: extremely courteous and polite. I thank my host Arshad who was a great person to talk to, and took good care.<br/>Possible add ons: perhaps they could have given a dessert on the table with happy anniversary written on it, all other major five stars do this, or perhaps place a flower the table, I mean anything to make you feel that you are celebrating a special day.<br/>Pocket pinch: 1250 per head, you get 20 percent corporate discount on lunch. Unfortunately they do not accept the corporate food cards yet.<br/>I highly recommend this place!!! Please do avail the live counter became that's what makes this place different.
Rijul Bose
I'll be reviewing this place only on the taste & quality of the food which it serves.<br/><br/>No doubt one of the best place in Kolkata for a fantastic dinner or lunch. <br/><br/>The quality of food is an absolute delight and will fill you stomach with happiness.<br/><br/>Dinner: Luchi, Peas Kochuri, Alu fulkopi, Cholar dal, Mixed veg, Rice, Chingri macher malai curry, Shorshey fish, Mutton Biriyani, Shreded Chicken hariyali<br/><br/>Thai menu: Thai pad noodles, jasmine rice, Chicken in Thai red and green curry<br/><br/>Desert: Gurer rosogolla, Baked mihidana, Malai chomchom, Sandes & Kulfi<br/><br/>As I was invited for a wedding reception at this place, hence I wont be able to give you any figures regarding the depth of hole it has burned in ones pocket.<br/><br/>The Thai counter was the best. I have never had such great Thai food, specially the 'Thai Red and Green curry' was lip smacking. The Indian counter was also pretty good, the 'Chingri macher malai curry', 'Alu fulkopi' and 'Shreded chicken hariyali' stole the spotlight. Coming to the desert, the 'Baked mihidana' was "Aladai" in bengali terms, totally exquisite, and the "Malai chomchom" was something to die for. <br/><br/>As the dining didn't take place in the restaurant, it took place in the Banquet, I wont be able to give you any approximation about the budget for a proper meal here. (will add the approximation whenever I visit it).<br/><br/>If you want to have some great Thai food and bengali desert, while enjoying the endless view of Rajarhat, this is the place to be.

Food is good but really disappointed with the service. 40 mins to serve the order is way too much. No where close to westin standard. Really need to work on service quality.
Saumya Chaturvedi
They have live kitchen counter for Italian Pasta and oriental cuisine. Also, the food is fresh and offers a great variety in buffet.. There badam halwa is mouth watering.. But there service is not up to the mark.. We had to keep requesting the staff to serve Indian bread and finally it came after I had finished eating the main course.. But for the quality of food u can rest assured.. All in all its worth a try..
Debjani Chatterjee Alam
Just after completing their successful one year in Kolkata, of Marriott International Inc., has come up with one of their famous business hotels, The Westin Kolkata Rajarhat which is first under the brand Westin. Situated in the Rajarhat Area. I have visited the All day restaurant Seasonal Tastes upon invitation and sampled the buffet as well as a few items from the a-la-carte. I found the buffet quite decent with good options though they need to work on the general service.
Dipankar Guha
I had been to this place yesterday with my colleagues for lunch. We had a great experience as all of us were pleasantly surprised. Having seen the quality of food recently in another star hotel in Kolkata (for which I have already written a review), we had moderated our expectations. However, this place being new, is very nice.<br/>The restaurant is on the 10th floor and the view is wonderful. There was a complimentary virgin mojito which almost everyone likes! Moreover, you need some drink while having lunch buffet. So it's really nice that the management understands this basic need of any customer.<br/>Coming to the starters, there are some veg and non veg options. I liked the grilled fish and chicken. There is kati roll, kebab, paneer tikka, salads of different types, soups, live counters for pasta and noodles. I tried the sautĂŠ chicken with vegetables and prawns and it it was really tasty.<br/>For main course, you have some routine stuff like rice, peas polao, fish, chicken, mutton gravy, etc. Gosht polao was very nice.<br/>In desserts, there were many items like pastries, fruits, mousse, sweets, etc. Baked rosogolla was nice but it had become mashed due to the way it was kept.<br/>Overall it was a good experience and all of us thoroughly enjoyed the lunch.<br/>One area of improvement is the entrance area where a portico would look nice.
Manav Malhotra
Excellent breakfast spread at Seasonal Taste at the Westin. Loved the spiced banana smoothie, elaborate spread of fresh fruits. My only suggestion will be to serve bowl of sambhar with dosa orders by default. Service is very friendly & efficient.
Sagnik Sarkar
Located atop westin hotel, at the 10th floor, seasonal taste is indeed a place to binge on traditional yet uncommon dishes. <br/>Coming to the ambience, a great place - wide range of sitting arrangement. One part gives a good sight on to busy rajarhat arterial road as well as the Eiffel tower(kolkata special) not very far away. <br/>Hospitality i must say so far the best. Courteous welcome with a smile on everyone's face- fast service and always checking whether everything running fine. It makes you feel home.<br/>The food- we went for a lunch buffet. They are arranged in sections as- salads, indian dishes(veg and non veg), bengali dishes, jain dishes, continental breads with kebabs, live pasta and noodle counter, and a gigantic dessert section.<br/>Salad- kimuchi, chicken salad as well as the pepper squid salad tasted great. Types of cheese with meat are there. I liked the honey blazed ham - just the way you want it. Dahi vada and kachori chat are traditional.<br/>Bengali dishes- dal tasted good. Chhyanchra(a bengali mixed veg dish) goes well with it.<br/>Indian dishes- mutton kosha and chicken lababdar tasted good. But the winner was basanti polao with feresta sprinkled over it gave a new twist and taste buds danced into the tunes.<br/>Pasta counter- went for a white sauce prawn and squid pasta, chef made it just perfect.<br/>Continental- the cajun spice chicken roast so well cooked that it melts in the mouth. Other dishes also went well.<br/>Noodle counter- a mixed flat hakka noodle with the spices i needed , made with a perfection.<br/>Dessert section- calling it a section will be insult, rather a store or mart. So many to have. I specially liked- litchi tart, red velvet cake, blueberry cheese cake with macaroons, chocolate gateux, choco mudpie and crunchy tart. <br/>Pocket pinch- on a higher side obviously being a business hotel, its 1250+ 18%gst- i would say its worth paying that money being a place of great place of gastronomy. Will visit again sooner or later. <br/>
Indrajit Lahiri
when the chef asked for my food preference, I stole the line from the movie Ratatouille and said "Surprise me ... ". Chef Ravish Mishra smiled sheepishly and I could get the reason at the dinner. We chose continental cuisine and the first cocktail was looking just like a watermelon cooler. And I was kinda taken aback ... "A watermelon cooler ??? " But the first sip proved me wrong. It was a watermelon and chocolate cooler with ginger. Served at room temperature, the drinks set the mood for the meal. <br/><br/>Starter consisted of crispy cheese with tomato salsa and herbs (my idiot son kept calling it cheese papad) and Hazelnut crusted mushroom. After a decade of marriage, husband and wife hardly agrees on anything and we were no exception. While I preferred the former, her choice was the mushroom. Needless to say, both were brilliant. <br/><br/>My son was getting impatient (he still doesn't know the meaning of relaxed dining) and the intelligent chef team brought him a chicken burger. Thoughtfully, the bun was kept separate to prevent it from getting soggy. And, we were served the Parsley cauliflower soup with truffle. Now, I'll talk about other dishes in due time, but remember, this dish was THE showstopper for the evening and is highly recommended on any a la carte meal there. <br/>               <br/>Seafood Rissotto was next and it looked brilliant. And while we were expecting the dessert, the second main course arrived. It was chicken breast with asparagus veloute. Maybe the kitchen team mistook our appetite with our size, and we were literally choking. But did we let go of the dish ? No sir, not me at least .... <br/><br/>We were stuffed till our neck, but only a fool would miss an opera cake with banana ice cream and surely, we were not the ones. <br/><br/>For breakfast. I started with a south Indian platter along with my health-freak son and wife started with some mixed meat soup and upon chef Debmalya's suggestion, chocolate pancake with honey. But, a warrior's breakfast is incomplete without the meat and soon an order was sent to the kitchen for a specific omlette ( "cheese with mushroom, slightly underdone please" ). And, I've tasted my second perfectly fluffy shaped omlette (from wherever little I've tasted off course) in town. and, they know how to make a crispy, less salted bacon- I am seriously impressed. <br/><br/>For an outsider, the breakfast is priced at 1000/-, lunch buffet at 1250/- and dinner at 1500/-, all exclusive of Tax. And considering the ingredient and spread, it's pretty justified. <br/><br/>Will I go again ? Definitely, yes ...

It's good to know about the new place n awesome Buffet but management must take a call on providing soft drinks with the buffet... It hardly costs much for the Hotel which has already made a place for itself... M going to visit shortly n give a detaile<br/>d review.. The GST is still not changed... Should have been 5pc but still it's 18pc... Management must look into it... Just had a talk<br/>On my way to Westin...<br/>Yet again I sit to review... Excellent staff by far the best.... The chef made a special dish on account of our special date... Thanks to the entire Team... But again GSt issue dissapointed.... Excellent ambience... Would highly recommend..... Would surely like to revisit ....Also the Indian spread could have been better

We were 4 of us and 3 children which the restaurant people converted to complimentary on our request. We took the buffet which was highly recommended by them.<br/><br/>The spread is great and one of the best we could have. Cost wise it is costly but then they maintain that ways. Hopefully they understand as to what costing will work with the Kolkatans. Well a bit of dismay was that there was not even a soft drink included in the buffet but they went all out to provide one for us on our repeated requests.<br/><br/>The food is amazing from start to the end of desserts. Man the varieties of desserts will simply wow you. The food is mix cuisine and you will almost get everything you would want. Even the simplest hakka noodles was made in a great way for our kids who do not eat vegetables. We also ordered pasta and some noodles for ourselves too and they were simply marvelous. The starters were simple yet superb.<br/><br/>The only complain which I have is with the indian dishes spread. They were no doubt tasty but I found them to be a bit oily. Might be they would manage this in future but that's what I faced. The taste was awesome but with oiliness.<br/><br/>The best part was the desserts. So much in offer and such a huge spread. What else one can want more? Simply mind-blowing. I was so full I couldn't even try all of them. May be next time.<br/><br/>All in all it is a new restaurant in the town and it has so much to learn and evolve with. It is highly recommended by me. People are friendly and service is good too. A must visit if your pocket allows.

The restaurant on the 10th floor of this skyscraper is unbeatable in terms of views outside. It overlooks the eco park and the Biswa Bangla sarani with a very close resemblance of the queens necklace. <br/>The lunch and dinner buffets are visually very very appealing and lavish. People with different restrictions on certain kind of food will certainly find something or other that they can enjoy. The buffet spread generally contains variety of salads, varieties of Indian and continental starters, Indian and Chinese main course ( at times traditional Bengali cuisine) and an unbelievable array of desserts. The pastries that I have had here are undoubtedly the best that I have ever had. <br/>While staying in the property I have ordered in room dining multiple times from this restaurant. Quality of in room dining is as good as the one in the restaurant. <br/>The buffets are very reasonably priced at 1250+ taxes for lunch and 1500+ taxes for dinner. Overall an amazing experience.

Went there on Ashami with a friend. Absolutely brilliant place. A must visit for foodies. The buffet had a very large spread. Loved the salmon. The live counter for italian was average but chef Ugyen of the Chinese counter stole the show. For chocolate lovers it's a paradise. The Venezuelan chocolate desserts are just yum..... We would be back again. For sure.<br/>
