Visited Himur Henshel yesterday, and the experience was extremely disappointing. The food is overpriced, and the quantity and quality don’t justify the cost.We ordered Chhanar Dalna, which was recommended, but it wasn’t properly cooked — the chhana pieces were so tiny that even a narkel naru seemed bigger.Gondhoraj Bhetki was cold and overcooked. Murgh Pulao came with one piece of chicken and an egg that was so over-fried it couldn’t even be cut with a spoon. The chicken was dry and overcooked as well.The Chital Muitha, which they mentioned would be spicy, was actually sweet and lacked salt. The Mutton Kala Bhuna was another disappointment — most pieces weren’t properly boiled and it tasted oddly sweet.In starters, we tried Chingri Cheese Pakoda, but there was no cheese flavour at all.The only thing I actually liked was the Burhani — everything else was a letdown. Even the rice portions were small for the high price.Overall, this place is overhyped. The food quality and taste don’t match the pricing at all. Really disappointing experience — please work on freshness, flavour, and proper cooking.

Food and interior were good. The staff should also be well dressed to match with the quality of food and the ambience. Not advisable for people who have difficulty climbing stairs. Service: Dine in Meal type: Lunch Price per person: ₹2,000+ Food: 4 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 5

What happens if you order food at a restaurant and it's running an hour late to serve your order - you almost certainly complain about this and they try to make it work. Not here at 'Himur Heshel'; the staffs might behave as per the situation, but the Owner, Ms Sutapa Barua (aka 'Himu') would in an instant start shouting malignantly on you and misbehave (in our case it didn't matter whether it was a senior citizen talking to her). We didn't have an inkling of what was about to happen, and visited the restaurant couple of weeks back for a Sunday lunch. The place was easy to reach, and parking spot was easy to find. There was a huge que for lunch, and that's the norm on weekends. After waiting for an hour, we finally got the table. The decor was quite nice - colorful & vibrant. But that's where the good things end. We, after waiting an hour and being ill-treated, brought the food ordered back to home, with of course a packaging charge. We managed to have the starter 'Chicken Jali Kabab' there, which was quite ordinary in taste, and 'Gondhoraj Ghol' that was fine, but it's actually a roadside 30 Rs lassi with Gondhoraj lemon flavor.
For the rest of the menu that we ate at home - 'Ilish er Lej-er Bhorta' was quite sour and smelly, either it's how it's made, or it had gone bad. 'Potol chingri' was too oily, lacked any taste. 'Ilish paturi kumropataay mora' was quite substandard; even local eateries make Ilish better. 'Dhakai Chicken Tehari' was actually a chicken biryani, but even 75-100 Rs roadside alternatives tastes much much better. 'Chittagaon style mutton kala bhuna' was okay, nothing great. However, the prices on the menu would give the elite bengali restaurants of the city a competition.
In our opinion, the concept of fiddling with 'opaar banglar' nostalgia, along with brilliant marketing, and promotion by celebs has given the restaurant it's edge. However, fiddling with customer's modesty coupled with below-average taste at a ceiling high rate would certainly cause its unpopularity, if not taken utmost care.
