Peter Cat

Peter Cat on Park Street remains an iconic culinary destination that continues to charm patrons with its old-world ambience and vintage appeal. The dim lighting, classic decor, and nostalgic music transport diners to a different era, making it a perfect place for a laid-back meal or a special evening out. The seating is cozy, and the overall vibe retains the warmth and tradition that the restaurant has long been known for. Their signature Chelo Kebabs are, as always, a treat to the taste buds - rich, flavourful, and beautifully presented. However, one aspect that takes away from the otherwise delightful experience is the conduct of some of the service staff. While prompt service is always appreciated, the waiters tend to hover uncomfortably close to the tables. This can make conversations feel less private and the overall experience a bit rushed or intrusive. Guests may find it hard to relax and enjoy their time when under constant watch or when space feels limited. Despite this minor drawback, Peter Cat remains a beloved choice for many - combining good food with an atmosphere soaked in legacy. With just a little more mindfulness on guest space, the dining experience could be near perfect.

Nostalgic atmosphere, well preserved in how everyone behaves there, reminds Calcutta (Kolkata) of 1970s or 80s. The food was good, and we took something known as Chello Kabab (sorry for spelling errors, if any, recommended by the people we were accompanied with), and it was liked by the kids too. Obviously, it's not a pub, but we were happily surprised by the nice calm atmosphere. Short story: we enjoyed the drink there.

It was fabulous. Undoubtedly one of the best ones on Park Street or in Kolkata. Ambience, food quality all were very good. Only issue I found, it is less spacious. Not very congested but not very spacious also. Veg, non veg all options tried, all were absolutely perfect. So it is a 'Must go' restaurant in Kolkata. Strongly recommended.

Decades and generations of authentic and unique tastes, every time I come back to Kolkata on vacation, Peter Cat and Chello Kebab is a must. Rest of the dishes are good too as I had been going here for ages. The Tandoori Sizzler was nice too. The Chello Kebab did not disappoint me. This restaurant doesn't accept any online booking and parking nearby is always challenging Park Street, that also on a Sunday but I guess that's the charm also, that's how it is for decades.

We have been in the mocambo, which is part of same chain as Peter cat, the vibes are too good at both the places, you will find a good time eating at both the places. Whereas we have to wait for Peter cat, since there is a 30 min waiting time and no such waiting area, we just waited outside the restaurant only, Food: we order here all time favourite Chelo Kabab, along Fish Meunier, I'll say I have eaten better kabab then here but the side chicken along with with butter rice taste awesome . Plating is too good. The Fish is as good as we have eaten chicken Meunier in mocambo. Other then that we order order Dum ki Raan with kabab naan, we are things that will also be good, but then it distrub our taste buds, it's too sweet. We didn't finished the Dum ki Raan fully. Naan is ok ok. Recommendation: try Chelo Kabab and Fish Meunier

I think this restaurant is well kwon as a must place to visit in Kolkata. Crews were kind. The taste of food was middle high grade frankly speaking.

As for what they are famous for, their chello kebab is just awesome, the rice literally melts in your mouth and the chicken steak sizzler is also pretty delicious. We also tried chicken biriyani...that was okayish I would say. The only thing I didn't like is their service...like they took our orders very late and they really don't pay as such heed to their customers. When we went, 11 pm at the night restaurant wasn't even that busy. Otherwise it's good.

We were recommended this restaurant and it did not disappoint The food was delicious and the service was very good. Quite a busy place but waiting times for meals was good. I would recommend this restaurant. Peter Cat is ranked the 10th most iconic food places in the world by tasteatlas.com with the chelo kebab being its signature dish. A must visit for us while in Kolkata, this time we did not find it as great as earlier. Delicious food awesome taste. Nice Ambience.. Well Behaved Staff.. Good atmosphere for family and friends. Its a very popular restaurant with people waiting outside.
