I have been ordering from Aminia Behala since many years. Their Chicken and Mutton Biriyani is splendidly fingerlicking. Though the quantity is a bit less but the taste of their biriyani will recover that. By far the best biriyani in Kolkata according to me. I have tried biriyanis from many restaurants but Aminia Behala exceeds them all in quality and taste. Mind it, I am talking about the behala branch not the others. I have tried other branches too but Behala branch is the best. Their mutton in the biriyani is so soft and tender, its inexplicable. I would suggest everyone to order from the behala branch if possible.
The restaurant which comes in our mind when we plan a dinner with Biryani is of course "Aminia". It is one of the best restaurants for biryani lovers and non vegetarian eaters. The Aminia restaurant in behala is in a perfect place where we can reach very easily and can grab good spiced dishes at pocket friendly price. They keep food quality good always. Overall a hygenic place for all.
The food quality is top notch. The portions could have been better. The ambience is perfect for get togethers. Good place if you want to try Biriyani in Behala.
The ambience was really pretty. The taste of the rezala was too bland. The gravy was not that good. The sheek kebab was good but the price was too high.
Aminia Behala is not a very old restaurant as I remember this place opening up sometime back. But they have really maintained consistency in every item in their menu. Awesome biryani, kebabs and rolls. Even during lockdown, they have maintained their quality of food when the menu was limited. Prices are neither cheap,
nor expensive. But the food will not disappoint. One more thing is they are right on the side of DH Road but you don't have to worry about parking, big relief.
AMINIA- the name says it all.. the quality is way too good, but the quantity could have been better.

This was first restaurant where we dined post covid19 pandemic changed the scenario...
On entering our temp was checked and there was sanitizer to sanitize hands...
On entering inside the restaurant found it was empty, in spite of being a festive day...
Coming to food...we ordered mutton special biriyani and handi chicken...
The quality was good...and portion per plate was quite enough to feed 2 people...
To end it all we had phirni for dessert...which was yummy π...
Biriyani is on point π₯ Probably the best. A must visit ππ»
Amazing biryani and firni β₯οΈ
![Zomato]( "Recensione")
"Aminia" is a very famous and popular for its Mughlai and North Indian cuisine. I had visited their Behala branch which is located at Behala pathakpara just opposite of the showroom of Prapti and Chikitsha Diagnosis Center.
β’ Ambience of this place is very nice with beautiful interior decorations. Speacialy their's design of upstairs is really good.
β’ This outlet is spacious and they have seating arrangement of more or less 30 people at once.
β’ I had tried their Special Mutton Biriyani with Lahori Chicken. The taste of Mutton Biriyani was just amazing. It had 2 pieces of mutton with aloo and egg.Mutton pieces were so large and soft and also infused with spices.
β’ Lahori Chicken was superb in taste.It was so flavourful.Chicken was tender and flavourful. The garnishing of all the dishes was so nice.
β’ Quantity and quality of each item was enough and upto the mark. Service is fast and staffs are courteous and helped us to choose the right item. Prices are appropriate according to the quality and quantity of food.
Good food. I ordered 2 Mutton Biryanis, Mutton Awadhi Biryani, Chicken Cheese Kabab, and Mutton Kasha. Mutton Biryani was so light and tasty. I expected mutton piece of Biryani would be a little more tender. Same feedback for Awadhi Biryani, too. Its spicy and different than normal dum Biryani. In my father's opinion, Mutton Kasha was delicious and perfect π₯°. Chicken Cheese Kabab was good. But too much cheese on it. The ambiance was good. And staffs are polite and well behaved.
This place needs no introduction. Located in a prime area of taratala, it provides valet parking which is a big plus point since finding parking on D.H Road can be difficult. The ambience gives a shahi-but-modern vibe which goes well with the mughal food that the restaurant serves. The food here is delicious especially the mutton biriyani which has rewaji mutton pieces. Despite being masaledar mughal food, it does not feel very heavy while eating unlike some other places. Coming to service, it has room for improvement. The service is slow and servers had to be reminded of orders. Also we had to ask for cutlery. Overall this place is worth a visit especially if you are a fan of biriyani or the Aminia special.
We tried:
1. Chicken reshmi kebab
2. Fish tikka masala
3. Tandoori roti
4. Special mutton biriyani, kolkata style
5. Salad
6. Firni
Traditional Mughlai food joints in Kolkata Aminia opened several branches across the city. The Behala branch is located just next to Ajanta Cinema and in front of Taratala Metro Station. Due to the construction of Metro, business was not good, but it is picking up now. Holding valet parking system is added advantage.
The food is good, but somewhere, the flavor of New Market Aminia is missing.
Spacious seating accommodation and prompt service must win your smiles. Pocket friendly, too.
The quality of the food is very nice π. The test was fantastic.. and also the ambience is also very familiar and couple friendly..
Good food
Nice ambiance
Service could have been a bit better
Biryani was good
Mutton pieces were succulent and tenders perfectly.
Mango phirni is recommended
Cheese chicken kebab is a must try
The food was satisfactory. We ordered a half plate of chicken tandoori in which one of the chicken pieces was quite charred though they changed it after addressing.
The service person was trying to sell biriyani but we were determined to not have biriyani that day π. Overall I had a good time .
Great ambience n food. Service was a bit late but polite stuff
We really liked the food. We had North Indian cuisine. The stuffed kulcha and special naan was really nice. The kebabs were largely good. The malai kebab was a bit on the harder side. Lahori Chicken was kinda disappointing both in terms of taste and quantity. Chicken tandoori butter masala was very tasty. Even, the sweet lime soda was great. The Shahi Firni was amazing as well !
Test of food is ππ― best. Different variety of menu available. It is just beside bhikaram sweet shop.
Food was delicious! Biryani is best. And their cheese kebab
