In every city you can find kolkata special "Kathi Roll"... But do you know this place is actually invent Kathi rolls. So whenever you are in or around new market are you definitely should try Nizam's special Kathi Roll.
No matter where you are in the country, Kathi rolls and Kolkata are synonymous. Much of it is due to the famous Nizam’s in Kolkata which pioneers in Kathi rolls as the idea of kathi rolls was first conceived less than a century ago –at this humble Mughlai food eatery outside of Kolkata's famous New Market.It has served a number of delighted customers over the ages who keep coming back for more.
Nizams is known for its kathi rolls and kathi kebabs.
The chicken used in the rolls are kathi kebab which is another iconic dish of this restaurant.The kebabs are delish to taste and are grilled to perfection.The chicken is not only juicy but extremely tender and spicy.It is served with lemon, lacha onions and mint chutney which helps in bolstering it's taste.
If u ever visit nizams kathi kababs are a must try.
Nizam's special biriyani is the best. Chicken tikka kababs are also mouthwatering
This is a heritage restaurant of kolkata famous for its rolls and biryani . Food is as usual very good enough to maintain their brand popularity .
Have heard of this place from my friends and finally decided to visit this place. Their biryani and kathi rolls are famous and really have reasons to be. Would definitely recommend to try them out. The price is affordable too. Only thing i didn't like was that the place is not very clean.
Very frequent I visit your place. I just love the mutton kathi roll. Its taste amazing. The mutton kathi roll size was enough for one person and the price was reasonable as well.
Next comes the mutton biriyani..No doubt, the taste and the quantity was good.Enough for one person and can be shared easily between two..The quality was also good..
We ordered Mutton Biriyani and Chicken Masala
Place: Nizam's, New Market
Pocket pinch: Rs. 200 and Rs. 175
Review: We were shopping around in New Market one day and got really tired. We were pleasurably surprised to see so many authentic biriyani joints around the place. A common favourite is ofcourse the Nizam's. With many people awarding this to be the best Biriyani joint of Kolkata, we loved the taste. The perfect balance of spices and flavours. Neither blande nor overpowering. Loved the place. Please visit the place if you are a Biriyani-sexual.

This vintage place is located in New Market Area near Esplande metro station. Very famous for their kathi kebab roll. Some months ago I tried their chicken kathi roll and to be honest it was absolutely delicious. The chunks of smokey spicy succulent chicken just melted in my mouth. They are also famous for their biryani.
Had mutton biryani and chicken tikka butter masala with chicken chap.
Biriyani( was delicious, proper quantity and mutton was well cooked👌.
Chicken tikka butter masala was great... Rich in flavours (4 pieces)
Chicken chap was good but little higher in salty side.
Price was justifiable.
Ambience good.
Service average.
Very crowded in peek festive season.
Well, if you thought that Nizam’s is only popular for its kathi rolls, it’s time that you change your perception. Situated in New Market, the restaurant serves lip-smacking Kolkata biryani—one of the best in the city. At any given time of the day, it might be difficult for you to find an empty place here. And on weekends, you might have to wait in a queue. However, the wait is worth it as the biryani is absolutely delicious. Served with boiled potatoes, pieces of chicken/mutton and a boiled egg, the heavenly taste of the biryani is nothing but outstanding. If you want to try something else too then order dishes like mutton pasanda, mutton rezala and chicken chaap along with your choice of bread such as naan or tandoori roti.
Kolkata's one of the best roll place, Nizam's since 1932. Since 1964 Nizam's started kathi roll, the started using bamboo sticks to grill kebabs and thats the point Kathi roll born in Kolkata before that it was simple roll. All different aromatic spices used to marinate the kebabs that gives the flavours to Nizam's Kathi roll. Really good and must for evry roll lovers. Heritage ambience but now modified a lot till it is Nizam. Try biriyani n Phirni awsom full of aroma and flavor. It worth to be there.
hands down one of the best kathi rolls. no frills, meat wrapped in roti with onion, nimbu and green chilly. the best kinda roll. got the standard chicken kathi and mutton kathi. i prefer the chicken but mutton was good too. had to come here to pay my respect to the origins of kathi rolls.
You can check this place out if you are around the new market area for some good Indian food. We tried their Nizam's chicken kathi roll- single which was good,but if you are a person who loves to eat roll with sauces & ketchup then you might not like their roll as they don't use any sort of ketchup & sauce. For Vegetation food you will only find few paneer dishes in their menu and nothing more. They have AC & Non AC Seating options as well, Ambience is also nice.
The original source of Kathi Roll is now a bustling nonagenarian restaurant located at the ever chaotic New Market area best known for the lip smacking options of rolls.Other dishes including biryani are top draws also.Warm lighting fills the interior and the walls are adorned with framed film posters.Service is decent,but parking is a nightmare here.With its share of limitations this is a prominent place of the rich culinary heritage of Kolkata.
Best destination for kathi rolls. Nizam's kathi roll, biriyani and kebabs are mouthwatering and so delicious. Chicken was soft, juicy.
AC and Non AC seating available.
Location - New Market area, Esplanade.
We tried -
Egg chicken roll
Egg panner roll
Mutton biryani
Chicken roll
Double egg roll
if you are around near Esplanade then you tried of eating Chinese food , and wants to a beautiful mesmerizing ambience then you must try Nizam. We try famous nizam kathi roll and Murgha Biriyani, kathi roll taste good but come to biriyani portion is less according price and too much oli but but taste was too good.

Authentic, Delicious and Heritage.
I have heard people claim that it is now no more having the standards of the past but I would say it is still better than many other places.
If you are longing to taste Kolkata Biriyani then this can be the place with a reasonable price.
I have been here both in the nom AC segment and the AC segment. They serve you the best roll in Kolkata. At least the've been serving roll over many decades now. Must try roll here. Biriyani is good /decent but I have had better. But rolls would make you visit again. Deserts, firni is good but I would recommend the Begum pasand Malai. If you are reading this and have not visiting this place YET. I recommend you to visit NOW. Go relish the food they serve. Just at the ground floor of Hogg building corporation office, near Chaplin square, the lane opp to Elite movie hall.
