The worst Kerala food I ever tasted, I ordered a fish curry and karemeen polichudu both the dish had superlative salt in it and both tasted horrible and the service was so excellent that owner didn’t mind our complaints and informed that fish curry will be salty in Kerala and we need to bare with it and at the end you get the bill and no wonder it will be exorbitantly high, won’t recommend any body to visit, even if you wish so pl do at your own risk, thanks for gaining a unsatisfactory customer for life kumarikom 👍🏼

This is supposed to be a Kerala restaurant & the dishes too. But Biriyani they serve is not an authentic one, Meals is ok but not good. Beef dishes are good. The ambience is good.Meals are the only thing affordable, the negative I felt about meals is the bucket sambar they offer is too much for one person. Its a wastage.

I was disappointed with the mackeral fish curry. The gravy was good but the fish was stale. I talked to the boy who took the order about it as the manager was on leaveAlso complained to the guy at the front desk. He just shook his head.Not a pleasant experience.

I had ordered for karimeen polichathu, there was no flesh and it looks like they have fried the dry fish instead of fresh fish and it was breaking like papad for which they charged Rs. 415When i asked for reason, there was no reply and didnt bother to give proper response.

Review №23

The worst kerala biryani I ever tasted in life, the masala and rice quality is pathetic where they charge a exorbitant cost. Guys if your looking for authentic kerala food go for other places in city and not for this fancy restaurant. Chicken was not well cooked and they had put the masala of egg roast which is easily understood while eating.

Good outlet of Kumarakom. It’s got a few tables. Food tastes great without doubt. The quantity of food served is moderately lesser than expected. A Malabar chicken biriyani wouldn’t suffice hunger of one person itself.

We recently ordered Kizhi Chicken Parotta which was extra ordinary. This dish has stuffings of chicken gravy between 2 Malabar parottas and tastes super yummy. We had ordered through Swiggy and this dish comes packed in banana leaf which give additional enhancements to our taste buds.A must try for parotta lovers. The Malabar parotta is so soft and tender pieces of chicken stuffings are a perfect combination. Prices are very reasonable.I would say this is the place to get Kerala parotta in the city. Their idiyappam and appam are also good. Their Kerala chicken curry goes well with all the above.Their payasam tastes good too.

On Monday evening we had ordered take away one kerala chicken gravy and one Beef ularthiyathu (fry) by phone and picked it up in person from a Anna Nagar Kumarakom restaurant.I must say this.... I have never eaten a worst gravy than this and the Beef was worst than the Chicken gravy. Beef was as hard as a Rock and no taste at all. No eruvu and without any Ruchi .It was a waste...and our hard-earned money was really gone without satisfying us.....I dont understand how the people can serve such a preparation and charging us so much. It was a waste full expenditure.I will never ever step into your restaurant again

We had ordered beef fry, kerala paratha, beef biryani, chicken lollipop they were delicious and nice. We had also ordered one fish fry covered in leaf which was not fried well and the masala was there just like that. Overall we enjoyed the tasty meal except the fish.

Dont understand why they keep on changing the location. This is the third location i have been in 4 years. This place is famous for Kerala cuisine and serves beef. The ambience is nothing to speak off. The food is tasty but I feel they lack consistently. In some of my visits the food quality was bad. But of late it is improved vastly. I also had Karimeen Pollichathu, which was overpriced at Rs 400 and undercooked.

Review №41

Worst food I have had in my life specially sambar is like ro water and no vegetables and no taste and they gave karimeen polichadhu it is not karimeenu it is karingupona meenu and at last they gave paripu payasam in that only paripu is there no nuts and no taste and also one thing I want to say that when you are going to eat in kumarakom you order in one day before because when we ordered they took one hour to bring one meal so service is too late so dont approach this hotel for your safe who are going to that hotel is taking your own risk so take care of your health. thank you by public person

Worst service ever. No waiters and everything was more like self service.Food was served late and it took like almost 1 hour to get the food. Came here mainly for karimeen and it was also bad. When asked at the reception they told to order online cause there are no waiters. If so why is the restaurant open for dine in, it should be closed and give only takeaway. Worst service ever.

Review №51

I had eaten in multiple kumarakom outlets earlier and dint have any concerns, but this one i guess is shifted to a new place in shanthi colony. First of all, i had to wait for 30 mins to get seated and 30 minutes for the food to arrive after getting seated. The ambience is silly, modifying a home to a restaurant with multiple chairs and having the toilet right next to your seats?? You have to walk in to a toilet to find the wash basins. The supervisor or waiters dont care to deliver food at right time, or apologize for delay. People have to ask multiple times, a few did say that they were diabetic and wanted something on the table after hours of waiting. And leave alone the wait time, the food was not up to the mark. Mine was a gobi manchurian cooked in mutiple time reused oil with the smell of old oil in it. Was it worth the wait of 1 hour. GOD NO...

Excellent food, quick and efficient service.The food provided, though not high class, is delicious. The time difference between the placement of order and delivery of food is minimal. Ideal for the gathering of friends and or families.The downside is the lack of sufficient seating for the huge amount of people that come there especially on weekends and an expansion is munch in need.Overall my trip there is a quiet pleasant and enjoyable one despite the rather long waiting time to be seated
