It reminded me ao much of my favorite Taiwanese breakfast 蔥油蛋餅 and was exactly what I needed.
Besides, the restaurant is very clean (both 1st floor and basement), the food is super fresh and flavorful (you can really be rejuvenated from a proper meal) and I love the owner Ms. Rimi who is like a sweet motherly figure to everyone coming to her restaurant.
Definitely recommend and definitely bringing friends here next time I get the chance!!!
You order at the counter and then sit down. They bring you the food and then you pay after you’re done. All very casual. We lingered and had tea. It was a lovely lunch.
My favorite dishes were the samosas and the chicken lollipops. The chicken lollipops were an Indo-Chinese sort of dish with a savory sauce a crunchy exterior. The samosas were perfectly seasoned and slightly crispy. Tandoori chicken was also excellent and well-seasoned throughout the outside and interior.
The only fault I could really find was that the biriyanis did not have too strong of a flavor profile, but that is to be expected since it is more so a vessel to eat with the other dishes, which were all amazing. Atmosphere could technically improve but I could care less if they have excellent food.
I really have no complaints about this place. Upstairs was packed but we were able to eat downstairs and enjoy our large meal. I will definitely remember this spot.
I stopped by Boishakhi Restaurant in Astoria, and it absolutely hit the mark. Everything we ordered was packed with bold flavor and felt like true Bengali comfort food.
I started with the Chicken Bihari, and wow it was tender, full of flavor, and far from your average chicken dish. It had a smoky, well-balanced spice that made it anything but boring.
Then came the Beef Tehari, and it was incredible. The rice was rich, aromatic, and deeply satisfying my taste buds, genuinely happy. The tamarind sauce on the side added the perfect tangy contrast.
I also tried a samosa, and I immediately wished I had ordered more. It was perfectly flaky with a light crunch, and the filling was flavorful with just a little kick. One was not enough!
Parking in the area can be a bit of a challenge, but it’s worth it Astoria is full of amazing food spots, and Boishakhi is definitely one of them. We spent about $30 total, which was more than enough for two people (even three could share).
That’s the beauty of NY so many places like this keeping it real, authentic, and full of heart. If you’re anywhere near Astoria and craving something flavorful and satisfying, make sure Boishakhi is on your list.
The service at Boishakhi is exceptional, with staff being quick, polite, and attentive. The upstairs dining area is cozy, providing an intimate atmosphere, while the downstairs space is more open and accommodating for larger groups. Regardless of where you sit, the ambiance is warm and welcoming, making it an excellent spot for both casual dining and family gatherings.
Hygiene and cleanliness are well-maintained, including their bathrooms, which are spotless and convenient. Boishakhi Restaurant has become one of our favorites for its consistently delicious food and excellent service. It’s a must-visit for anyone seeking authentic Bangladeshi cuisine in Astoria.
These immature people don’t know service because when we pointed out the lack of quality and the prices on the menu, the way their food made me nauseous and the fact that the food was COLD and barely edible and they started treating us like we would dine and dash. They started trying to force us to pay??
The woman that was rude and it really makes you think “it’s no wonder people don’t like our kind”. Genuinely, they treated us like we were less than human despite being our own race. They stared at us while we ate, and it was just uncomfortable.
I recommend Aladdin instead, the people there are kind, they’re sweet and they refer to you as family. When I go to Aladdin the food is fresh made and WARM. Coming here made me realize that being loyal regulars to a restaurant is so valid because of what happened here.
