Was Christopher Yandell at Ittadi a mag?
The food was flavorful and well seasoned. I’m not sure of some names of the dishes I got, so I will include photos of them. The chicken biryani was really good — the meat was very tender. Overall great vibe, feels like a local spot where the community comes together. View all feedback.
What Shany Thakur dislikes about Ittadi:
Food was okay but the cashier (not all of them) needed to lose the bad attitude. She was unnecessarily rude to my friend. The service was average as well. They need better management for customer service.Food: 3/5 View all feedback.

I frequently order from this restaurant for their fish curry, but I've often questioned the freshness of the dish, as it sometimes tastes stale. However, today they really let me down. The fish was mostly frozen and they didn't even take the time to warm it up properly! Additionally, the beans in the curry were uncooked. I will definitely not be ordering from them again.
I ordered beef tehari through DoorDash, and the taste was disappointing. They also failed to follow my instructions to include plates and spoons; my order arrived without either. This is quite frustrating.
They are missing the items be careful check right way and its their regular practice to missing the while items even out of two items how they missing one ? Its not 100 of items God bless all those workers who prepared and working with this kinds of industry !!!!!
The quality of the food was disappointing. The jilebi was soggy and tasted like it was a week old. Everything we tried had a terrible flavor. Overall, it wasn't worth it.
Best combo everyone should try it

REALLY tastes like home. The place was very busy when we arrived but the lady taking orders was very patient with us despite it being so.The food was about as authentic bengali as it gets. Literally felt like I was eating food from home. The seating is a bit rough in that there isn't much of it, but just be patient with the staff and you will have a great time.I will say, for non-bengali's the menu might be a bit overwhelming since nothing is really explained, so just ask questions to get a feel for what you want and you'll have a great time.

Reasonable food ..large traffic of diners, I went in because I was shopping in the area ..a lovely confirmation as if you had landed in India. But this restaurant is expensive in relation to the value..there is a credit card fee...it was not said, I was just fined.Food: 4/5
I recently ate at Ittadi restaurant and was impressed by the tasty food and friendly ambiance. One standout feature is the prayer area on the second floor, making it convenient for those needing to pray while dining. The food was incredibly delicious and I would definitely recommend it to anyone in search of a fantastic meal.
The food was terrible, we couldn't eat it and had to send it back. Despite that, we were still charged for the order. I will be filing a complaint with the health department.

As a fan of butter chicken, I was pleasantly surprised to find that this restaurant offers the best butter chicken I've ever tasted. I've never enjoyed butter chicken from Jackson Heights, but here, it's truly excellent, especially when paired with garlic naan. The mango lassi is also quite delightful. However, I found their desserts to be just average. The flan was bitter and had a lack of flavor, making it hard to finish. On the bright side, the snacks, like the chicken lollipop, were very enjoyable!
If you like spicy food, you are the right place. Even her Kacci Biriyani is crazy wicy! Lamb Shank was amazing! Good food for the Buck!
Most of the dishes here are really delicious. We tried many of their dry items, and all were enjoyable. Today, my brother and I sampled their goat meat biryani, and we absolutely loved it. The flavors were excellent, and the meat was perfectly cooked. The waiter was very polite as well. Please note that if you dine in, a 15% service charge will be added to your bill. The ordering system could use some improvement; if it's enhanced, the experience would be much better. I recommend this place if you enjoy Bengali cuisine. Thank you, and have a wonderful day!
One of the best Bangladeshi restaurants in NY and they deserve 5 . They have varieties of Bangladeshi foods. We've tried lots of fish items, beef stomach, vorta, chicken roast, kabab, chicken samosa, pakora, and all the foods were great . They have very limited sitting capacity. But, i will highly recommend this restaurant if you are missing Bangladeshi foods.
Bengali Cuisine at it's finest... although it was a bit busy right before the shop closed down to observe the breaking of fasting due to Ramadan. The staff really took care of us. The food was absolutely amazing! Will be making a return to try more of the dishes... cleanliness in the restrooms lack a little, other than that, this spot is a hidden gem.
