Bongo's

A super chill spot with delicious + authentic dishes and great staff! Everything was a hit for me, including dessert!

It's very rare that you'll eat food from Bongo's but won't have a stomach upset or a heartburn. Not sure if it's the oil they use or repurpose old oil or the spices or their hygiene... The food tastes good in general, that's the reason we order from here once in a while but I guess I would have to give it a break for a while now. I hope the owners see this and take some actions towards the food and hygiene quality.

Sadly not many Bengali, bangladeshi restaurants in the Bay area. This one is definitely one of the consistent Bangladeshi food restaurants. We have probably been here 20 times in the last 5 years (if not more). There is a difference between west Bengal and Bangladeshi food and this one embodies bangladeshi food. If you want to explore new food and want genuine, flavorful food- this is your spot! Give it a try. In door dining is very limited and can get crowded depending on the time of the day and weekend. Other items to try are moghlai porotta, fish or mutton chop, chicken roast, any fish dish. You will not be disappointed, Put those knives, forks and spoons away and enjoy it with your hands. You will thank me later!

I ordered the Mughlai Paratha. Half of it is inedible, the other half tasty, that's why I gave it a 2.5 (average of 0 and 5)! Read on for more details.The mughlai paratha supposed to be thin and filled with minced chicken, egg, etc.. The chef here apparently missed the "thin" part. The bottom side is edible, but the part inside the top part has raw dough inside (see picture). My biggest question is why make it so thick?!Secondly, this supposed to be deep fried in oil, not cooked in oven. Even the shape of the paratha is strange, it was always rectangular, not square. Come on this is not Sephard's pie!Overall, this is not Mughlai paratha, it's a doughy version of it, avoid it!

Food: Authentic Bangladeshi food in the Bay Area. You find items like "Kacchi biryani", "Chicken Roast", and "Goat Rezala" which are very uncommon. IMO, Bangladeshi cuisine is more meat-heavy and somewhat less spicy compared to Indian cuisine. If that sounds good to you, you must check it out!Ambiance: You don't come here for the ambiance. The setup is very ad-hoc with 2-3 tables only. If that's not your vibe, order takeout. Service: Very fast, contactless payments. If you are ordering takeout, you will be in and out within a few minutes. Parking: Huge parking lot outside!

Really good murog polao! Great mix of flavors from the kishmish, the nuts, the beresta, all with the savory delicious chicken. Great portion too! Also got the mishti doi and that was good too, came in a cute little cup.

My first time here. I did a takeaway. When I reached home, I was charged for large fish... when I really got a very small one..small size.I was cheated, considering that I told them that I drove all the way from Campbell Very very disappointed

Very good and prompt service. The food is awesome and authentic. We tried shorso illish (Hilsa fish in mustard curry), fish dose and goat rezala. All were very tasty. The parathas were little oily. Food reflects labor of love for the owner and chef. Not too expensive. Ambience is normal.

Food was ok i have their sweet item i love sweet but it is good for non veg people as i am vegetarian. Service was good and ambience was ok

Too good that, I went to San Francisco for 4 nights, I was craving for Bangladeshi food. So I did uber an hour away to eat some "Shutki bhuna, Daal, Beef Kosha, Chicken Roast".The food was so good that we set aside our other plans to go eat there on the 4th night of our stayover. They food feels like homemade quality.Note: I also had their "Kalojam" sweet too. It was heavenly. Also, the overall customer service was beyond above because the first day went, we went to closing hour, they took our order over phone. However, they were extremely friendly and welcomed us with a happy face.I will always come to this place. This place is way above comparing to any Bangladeshi restaurants in NYC or LA.Must Visit!!
