Who is this Jatin and why does he dislike this place so much đ

Talab in San Jose is an absolute gem when it comes to authentic Bengali and Indian cuisine. Every dish we tried was wonderful, from the flavorful chicken biryani to the crisp and fluffy koraishutir kochuri with spiced alur dom, and the creamy, refreshing mishti doi that ended the meal perfectly. The ambience is warm and inviting, striking just the right balance between cozy and elegant, and the service is super welcomingâmaking the whole dining experience feel truly special. A must-visit spot for anyone craving soulful, comforting food in San Jose.

Food is not worth money. Some reviews seems fake. Ordered fish fry..no kasundi or any sauce. Very rude

Unfortunately, my experience at this restaurant was disappointing due to the ownerâs extremely unwelcoming attitude. Her behavior made me feel uncomfortable, and I genuinely felt like leaving as soon as I walked in. I wouldnât recommend visiting if she is present, especially if youâre looking to enjoy your meal in a pleasant and friendly atmosphere.
And
Food is excellent. Made to order. Friendly servers.

A hidden gem I would say!! I was awestruck with the classy ambience and experiencing the lip smacking food of Talab especially their speciality non veg mains! âAwadhi muttonâ and âOld Delhi butter chickenâ being my personal favorite is highly recommended and a treat for the soul too!! Service is top notch as well! Overall a Gastronomical experience!! Looking forward to explore more dishes in Talab! Also please donât forget to try their refreshing mocktails which you will not find it anywhere else!!! Highly recommended dishes:- Awadhi mutton, old Delhi Butter Chicken, Kolkata rolls, chicken Biriyani, Luchi torkari, Afghani paneer, Kadai paneer etc⊠and the scrumptious list goes onâŠ.

Awesome food here, we canât find it anywhere in the Bay Area. It has the closest Authentic North Indian dishes and Bengali Dishes. Iâm a huge fan of the food here. Worth a try.

Good Food. We had Muglai Paratha with Keema. and Luchi with Tarkari. Both were really good. Muglai Paratha was easily one of the best. - Minced Mutton in Fried Bread.

THE BEST NAAN WRAP! âŠI came here specifically for that, right after ordering an âIndian burritoâ at Sam and Curry that wasnât even worth eating. This place did not disappoint, in fact it was significantly better than the average naan wrap Iâve had elsewhere. Fresh cooked veggies and the seasoning was very on point without being over the top, hard to describe but it was amazing. The paneer cheese was also above average, soft warm and SO fresh. Will return for this and to try other dishes.
I give 4 instead of 5 stars because I thought Chai Teaâwhile points for making it fresh to orderâwas too bland. I have a friend Daljeet who makes it fresh and the spices in Talabâs just werenât on par for my taste.
The service very friendly and they took the time to explain dishes and answer any questions we had when ordering, serving us at the outdoor tables. I minus a star there because I did find it a little slow, considering there wasnât anyone else eating there. I understand taking a while to make food fresh but it shouldnât have taken as long as it did to bring me the glass of wine I ordered.
Overall the quality of the wrap was so next level, complaints are minor, I absolutely recommend the place!

Food isn't worth the money both in terms of quality and quantity, but has good ambience.
True reminder of Kolkata. Makes for a perfect meal with some real good options.

This was my first experience eating Bengali food and I enjoyed it. We ordered Kolkata fish fry with Tilapia. The marination for the fish was flavorful. We also ordered Pomfret in mustard sauce and loved it. Overall food was tasty and ambiance was good. I will definitely visit again.

Amazing place! If you want quality food with great service this is the spot. The atmosphere was high scale and super chic. I only had takeout but sipped on a delicious mango lassi while waiting and enjoyed the decor. I had the Mughlai Paratha & Spicy Aloo and it was beyond delicious! The spicy aloo was flavor blast! And the paratha was cooked to perfection. This place is a must visit!
