About Curry Leaf Restaurant
Curry Leaf Restaurant is a Kerala restaurant in Londonderry, serving South Indian cuisine from 105 Spencer Rd. The kitchen puts beef roast and beef curry on the same menu as its dosas, which gives diners a choice between Kerala meat dishes and the lighter, crisp-edged griddle fare. The masala dosa comes with sambar and chutney for dipping. Those who want something different from the dosa side of the menu will also find Indo-Chinese style mixed fried rice. The restaurant is family-owned and keeps a small menu.

Customer Review Summary
Dosas are the most frequent draw at this Kerala restaurant, with reviewers singling out the masala dosa, describing crispy dosas, and calling it a good dosa in town. Close behind are the meat dishes, including beef roast, beef curry, and buttered chicken, which one reviewer says is always excellent. Others name the chicken biriyani, fried chicken rice, and the Indo-Chinese style mixed fried rice, and several call the cooking authentic South Indian Kerala food. Reviewers describe a small, family owned place with a small menu, nice music, and good honest food, and one asks others to support the local business. The criticism is less frequent but pointed. One diner had a poor dinner of dosas, saying the sambar and chutney were old and cold, the tea was horrible, and staff did not seem to care. Another enjoyed the masala dosa but wanted it spicier, and one said it was not what they expected. Still, one reviewer says they could taste the spices even after getting home.
