Located in a slightly congested area on a narrow alley where you need to climb about a few stairs. Location is nothing impressive. I had lunch with my familt at this restaurant. We were a group of three and it was a week day and mid Jan being off-season Being a week day lunch time, there was enough seats available. We were greeted at the gate and chose our seat.

This is one of the most talked and known restaurants among the Locals and tourists. You can eat Darjeeling Gorkha Cushine Full meal, Chinese , and Indian Cushine as well.

Penang is a very popular restaurant among the locals and tourists alike. It has been serving in Darjeeling for a very long time (50 years) and it is still up and running.
