Customer Review Summary
Kanthari kappa with beef is the dish reviewers praise most, singled out for its balance of spice and rich flavour. Close behind are the biriyanis, including kudukachi and mutton, along with the meen pollichathu, pothichoru and dosa, which reviewers call fresh and full of flavour. One reviewer drives a long distance for this branch specifically, and another says it won them over after a disappointing visit to a different branch. A group who ordered catering for a meeting also report that everyone enjoyed it. Criticism is specific. One reviewer found the sambar and chutney with the ghee roast disappointing and the beef roast below average. Another called the food bland, with chicken mandi heavily coloured by artificial dye and a pothichoru overwhelmed by rice. A third found the mutton in the biryani very tough. Parking is described as challenging, and one reviewer wanted better lighting. One diner closes by recalling that the waitress suggested a combination of dishes they would not have known to try.

“Beautiful food each time. We asked our lovely waitress for her recommendations and she suggested a great combination that wouldn’t have known to try. Excellent.”

“Ordered the chicken mandi, pothichoru, and kappa biriyani, but unfortunately, none of them were worth the high price. The food tasted bland overall. The chicken mandi was heavily covered in artificial food color, and the pothichoru had a disproportionate, overwhelming amount of rice. Expected much better quality for the price paid.”

“The food was delivered for our meeting and it was excellent. Everything was fresh, tasty, and well prepared. The team was very helpful throughout the ordering and delivery process. Everyone enjoyed the food, and it was a great way to share and celebrate Kerala cuisine and culture. I would highly recommend them for catering and group events.”

“The food we ordered Mutton biryani, was splendid, the first place that I could get and taste real biryani. The only problem was the meat was very tough. It should be tender.but overall the food was excellent. The DOSA was delicious. I will continously order from KERALA HUT, so I can have the opportunity to taste real south indian dishes. My favourite being lamb liver, and masala PROMFRET. I WILL NOT HESITATE IN RECOMMENDING KERALA HUT TO ALL MY FRIENDS AND FAMILY. THANKS FOR THE EXCELLENT AND DELICIOUS FOOD. WHICH MADE MY DAY.”
