★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The most beautiful and most romantic dining location in Kolkata. You have to see the place to believe my words.. It is breathtakingly beautiful, specially the boat ride.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ My experience was horrible. We went with my 4 other friends, and also we have our 5 children.
We repeatedly told them not to put chili in food but they changed our food 2times. The same thing happened everytime. It's in starter.
Coming to main dish, the food don't have any taste. We order fish but they deliver chiken and when we told them they said it's fish. After 2 times complain they admit it and change it.
Coming to chiken, it was smelly, too much fibre, and also there was only coating fry instead of chiken.
I don't have this type of worst experience in any other resturent till now.
Then we complain to manager and he deducted the chiken dishes.
Ambiance is the only thing here. It's really one of the best place to enjoy nature, water body,

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The Bengali restaurant was closed so we tried the chinese section. The food was bland. It wasn't good at all. Small place, too crowded, too much noisy. However, very quick service, the staff was polite and the outdoor ambience was beautiful.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Situated at excellent location. Journey to the Resturant from Eco park itself is a great one. Specially in the evening. Two options available. Once as Bengali Cuisine, other is Chinese. Tried the chinese one. Food taste was average. Nothing special. Only Chilli chicken dry and hakka noodles were good. Hope they will improve the food quality soon enough. Full marks for the location though.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It's one of the most beautiful restaurants I have visited so far. The location is amazing. And the decorations and vibe just fit perfectly with the scenery. Also the food here is delicious. Specially the soups, they are just amazing. Portion sizes are enough. Most people think the prices will be very high based on its location and ambience but it's not at all the case. Prices are quite reasonable and affordable. The food is also great taste wise. Might need a few little additions in their desert menu. The ambience is awesome. Best place to have a family dining. And last but not the least the service is also very upto the mark. Staffs are helpful and polite.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It's located on an island in eco park lake. We came in our vehicle and were dropped off near the bridge that connects to the island. Ambience is great. There are two restaurants, one on the house boat and the other just beside it.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Cafe Ekante - The best location for beautiful photos in kolkata.
No doubt, it is very well decorated and positioned.
Staff behaviour was also good.
We dined in both restaurants inside cafe ekante. Even though they provide wonderful location to dine in, but they lack cooking skills for sure. Both the restaurants (including the houseboat)
Food was "okayish" as compared to the price they are charging. That brings it down to 4 star!
You may or may not require advance booking. Please contact restaurants prior to arrival.
Apart from that AWESOME WEEKEND GETAWAY ☺️

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It took approx. 1.5 hours for the kitchen to put the food on the table after placing the order. And, we were only 3 people that ordered only few items. By that time, people at different table were visibly upset. Children were hungry and crying. Some of the tables were canceling the orders. Even though the outside water body was stunning to look at but with an empty tummy even the beauty was bleak.
The staffs were mixed bag. Some of them were quite polite and were soft to handle the agitated eaters. And, some of those seemed to be relics out of an institution without work ethics.
Having said all of this, question is why still then a 3 star. It is the "taste" that wins the day. The overall experience was not what we expected but the taste of the food was pretty good. If someone wants to try Bengali cuisine for the first time, I would gladly recommend them about this restaurant.
Basanti Pulao, Mutton Kassa, Mutton Dakbunglow (although the egg was missing), Hing-er Kachuri were very good. The Fish Fry was good but not as good as last time when we visited couple of years back.
However, here is a tip. While after reaching Cafe Ekante, if you see that there is a marriage celebration and banquet is reserved, and if you are hungry, I would recommend you to about turn, and find out another place nearby. There are several. The food at the banquet is served from the same kitchen as the Cafe Ekante. That was why it took arbitrary long to get our food at the restaurant.
