Visited twice this place and food was awesome, no food colours, authentic taste, hygiene food..Thali lovers should try various meals options available...

I have given 4 stars for the amazing ambience. But the food that we had was not much great as we expected. I feel there can some betterment in terms of food otherwise the staff is good, place is very nice and cozy and has a beautiful decor.

Simply loved the ambience and the food here. We were a group of 8veg+non-veg people, so we had a lot of food on our table. The best dish hands down was the Veg Mappa, which completely stole the show amongst all the dishes we had ordered. It was simply out of the world. Also wanted to give a special shout out to the good service provided here.

Nice place for fish and main course.The best taste

We have been ordering from Kerala cafe for quite some time. We love the authenticity in taste and really feel the restaurant does justice to the state. We loved the personal touch with the post-it note in our order today so thought it was vital to appreciate the efforts that have been taken despite the times. Keep up the standards!

Good ambiance..the service is good..the starters were okay, kind of tasted same for different meats..The fish curry was nice..the happy hours were going on.so one plus one was going on with drinks..Good variety available..

Wanna have Sadhya??Perfect place to be!!

I went on the day of Onam to try some authentic Kerla veg food with my family.I would leave zero stars if I could. The food is mediocre for the price 700 plus for this veg thali and to make it even worse it is not even warm service was very very poor they should train there staff You whitewashed my day.

Very nice place to try Kerala cuisine. Preparation is good and is served in banana leaf. Must visit place.

Beautiful Place and authentic kerala food

Delivery ReviewIf you love Kerala food then this is the place. What a fabulous treat… We ordered chicken tiffin and it came with chicken curry, fry, dal, salad, rice n parotga For myself it was veg pothi which came wrapped up in banana leaf. I just loved it. Staff was very courteous when I called them as delivery was getting late. Absolutely fantastic experience. Going to be in my BEST south Indian food restaurant.

Good food with the ambience that will pull you to this place everyday. Best authentic kerala dish served in town.

A big rip off! The Kerala meal we took had had almost everything yet some things typical were missing. I asked for surmai but it didnt seem fresh and the quantity was also less. The rassam was tasty. Ambience pretty good. Service was lacking.

Had lost of expectations from this place, but ended up disappointed. The place is actually huge, with cool interiors, nice ambience, cosy. But somehow not upto the mark. The old Kerala cafe was so lovely, food was awesome. Service was fast. But here the place is literally dead during the weekdays. Not much variety in vegetarian food, specially starters. Beer, not many options. Although the staff was very friendly, service was very slow. Food was not upto the mark. Masala papad sucked, we got it replaced. The gravy with malabar parota was pretty bad. Looks like the place has lost its charm. Hope that they can work on their flaw and be awesome like how they used to be. Could be a different story during the weekends, you never know.

Although the place seems more vibrant and happening from outside, didnt really live up to my expectations. Not denying the fact that it has some really good vibes going when you enter the space. But yes, the place is old and needs some realtime maintenance on aesthetics. The staff is good and decent in service. Coming to the main part, the taste is certainly authentic in its flavours. Although please study Keralas cuisine before you explore the menu. Its has some really influencial favours which may not entice your taste buds as much. But yes, the informed crowd can definitely explore the menu quite better. I loved the appam and prawns. However would recommend the the roast starters for spice lovers. The huge ceiling height gives this place a grand feel.

Very good service. Amazing food, beautiful ambience at baner

Great Ambience... excellent variety of cuisine.. excellent taste and authentic Kerala style food..

I would give 2 star only for its ambience! Food was okayish, chicken wasnt fresh. Fish was good. Visit only if you are really into try and taste!Prices are on little higher side and dont justify the value of dishes.Valet parking is available.

If you want to have typical Kerala food in Baner, Balewadi area in Pune, this is the place.

One of the places in pune where u find authentic kerala food. A special mention of the buff roast which was slow cooked in traditional Malabar spices.

Awesome Kerala Food. Waiters were very helpful in suggesting food and serving.

This is our fav go to place whenever in doubt. They never fail to impress us. We tried the meals on banana leaf this time and it was amazing , is the word. I have not had an authentic kerala meal every but felt like it did complete justice . I would definitely try it again.

Surprised 🤨 by the uniqueness and taste of Kerala. Paneer garlic was awesome. If veg is that much good I can only imagine how much better is nonveg. Had to eat veg with vegetarian friend.Must visit place if you are a foodie.

If you are a typical Malayalee who loves to drink and have poth fry as touchings, then this is the place...For others, the happy hours is worth a shot. And if you want to try authentic Kerala cuisine, you wont be disappointed.

One of the best places Ive visited in terms of service, ambience and the food...really enjoyed a lot and will definitely come back to enjoy the flavoursome dishes

One clearly knows what to expect from this place as the name of the restaurant gives it off. I had been here for a dinner with family and wanted to savour authentic Kerala non veg food. Firstly about the place. The ambience was quite pleasing and gives a sense of relaxation, the minute you enter. The menu was very tempting with multiple options and has automatically built my appetite. All you can eat meals are available only till 4 PM. Now coming to the quality of food. I have tasted authentic Kerala food before and very disappointed with this place as far as pleasing my taste buds are concerned. An extra dose of onions loaded into every dish. Even the spiciest dish was bland and had a sweet tang to it. I was recommended to try Kora Meena fry, if I have got this name right- a Kerala back waters fish. Heavily disappointed again. However if you want to relax with family or friends and in a mood to try something different, this place could be an option and if you feel that food is everything then I would suggest you to look for other places.

I had a takeaway order. It was prepared in time. Well packed. Staff was polite.Food was tasty. Pomfret in banana leaf, ghee roast chicken.. 😋😋The bar too looked well stocked.

Was missing Kerala and was craving for kappa and meen curry , glad to say I wasnt disappointed 💜 It was just too yum , spicy and delicious, even the staff were friendly and engaging ❤️

Fish Fish Fish.Nom nom yum!

Good one !! Try Veg meals and Fish fry.

Kerala delight... The place gives you vibes from Gods own country by the taste of the food; walls decorated with photographs from the culture, art of Kerala.We ordered the food which was wrapped in banana leaf & black coffee. They serve hot water with some herb(?) added to it. It gives essence of Kerala... Love south Indian Food.

Wonderful food specially the meals which are offered typically the traditional way..only one slight problem they need to better their order delivery time took quite a long time for our orders dont know due to pandemic or weekend rush, staff was less..Barring that rest all on all a great place with great food and ambience..

Want to taste some south indian cuisine, be here

Had heard about this place from my friends. Finally managed to visit last week. As the name suggests, they serve close to authentic Kerala cuisine. Loved their Prawns Biryani which was tasty and had good quantity of prawns. Nice ambience and helpful staff. Lighting should have been a touch bright. Overall a nice place to go with friends and family. Worth trying!

I had my reservation for this place being a south indian myself but having visited here, I feel it is quiet good.You would love it if you have the taste buds for authentic Kerala food and having tasted the veg meal and the nadan chicken curry I should say it has been a good experience overall.

Worst Food, Pathetic Service, super dumb people. Food was too much spicy n tasteless. Please close it dont fool people

Food quality and taste is really amazing. They take 7.5% service charge plus CGST and SGST on the service charge you pay. (This GST is different than the GST on your actual food bill)Try fried chicken legs and coconut icecream.

Good food and environment. Buff ghee roast was delicious. Happy hours is ❤. Buy one get one beer.

Superb taste...Do visit once... Ambience and background music will make your day...

Nice place to visit! Amazing ambiance!!! Loved Chicken Ghee roast alot 😍

Best place to eat Authentic Kerala food . Ambience is really nice. Staff is polite and supportive. Rates are pocket friendly.Most recommended for those who wants to eat authentic malabari spices !!!

Good ambienceGood taste for veg and nonVeg.Less spicy. So not for who wants thrill of spice over here.They serve some good hot water welcome drink in red. Some jadibuti or something.. it is good as compared to normal water before starting drink.Proper Kerala tradition food..

THIS IS NOT KERALA FOOD. FOOD IS STALE.Food is tasteless, no resemblance to Kerala cuisine at all. I had ordered Prawn pepper fry and it was smelling of stale onions. When questioned, the staff hastily replaced it. No quality control. Chicken curry was stale with just boiled chicken which was just mixed with some curry. Will never go back.

Food was ok, but be careful with their bill. They add service tax and ac charges on food bill. After we asked they removed that.

Good aestheticsGood place for people with acquired taste of south indian foodStaff is really good and friendlyHygienic and calm environment

If you are going there in the evening opt for ac restaurant as sitting in the open air will ruin your dinner. So many mosquitos.... It is next to open sewer, so you get totally distracted from the offerings.Secondly, the waiters are not well trained as they are always chatting between themselves. So you have to make an effort to call them to your table.The food quality is better but not the best and at the price they are offering, it must be the best. Alas that being not the case....Deserve 3 stars

Not authenticated Kerala food. Putting so much money on ambience rather than food quality & it is so expensive as compare to other kerala restaurant.service was so poor. Pathetic service.Dont spend your money on such service and food.

Ummm... Not as per the expectations.... Must try surmai pollichattu and bamboo biriyani....

Ok so now after eating at so many place I must write a review about this place.There are multiple branch in pune of this cafe but Baner and kalyani nagar is famous.Lets talk about food.We went to Baner for the meal.We took one veg and one chicken meal.Now this is to my surprise that they dont serve any kind of Chaitnya which is weird for South Indian joint. The rice and sambhar was ordinary as other normal place. At first they server the cold rice and then we had to ask for the proper dish. Rasam was Okies. Not so great. Chicken was chewy but the masala was good. The other veg meal which is been served was more of good dabba service wala taste.About the service:Plate look good. It was very well served.Service was pathetic as you have to wait long for the refill.Ambiance was pretty good. Bit dark just like some bar but it was good.

Food & Ambience is good, Service is prompt. This is AC restra. They forgot one basic need. I booked Onam Sadhya and they were serving dishes at room temperature. Thaandaa khana kaun pasand karega, that too after paying almost 50% premium. Wish Hotel owner eats in his own restra, such juat warm food. Food served is not enough hot.

This place is just awesome. The food is just great. Perfect flavors, pure authentic taste of Kerala. Its good for vegetarians as well as non vegetarians. Prawns, pomfret, etc etc. Everything was just touching watering.

Good food ,the ambience is also amazing . The new outlet is much bigger , better and brighter. Service could have been a little quick but rest all is good

An authentic Malabar food spot with nice ambience and valet parking. Coconut jaggery custard is a must have, curd rice was nice, didnt like the appetizers much. Do ask about the dish before ordering if you dont know them, experimenting here with food isnt a good idea. Overall the taste was good and make reservation as place is full even on weekdays.

Please you should rename your restaurant! Your Onam aadhya was a sad attempt at proving your cuisine is from kerala. I dont know where to begin. From the samba that was a concoction of dal and vegetables with no trace of samba masala, your facial was a pathetic lump of vegetables with no flavour as were the Ola, kootu and pachadi. I thin your cook is from Nepal! Pls dont fool people and stop this charade immediately! The only lone star I have given is for the service and the fact I got attended to. I am quite happy to come and coach your chef for free so your future client base is not as disappointed as I was. I cam for a Happy Onam meal but got a squishy, flavourless one. Buck up!Manisha

Pathetic service and food quality is not up to the mark.Dont waste your money and time for ambience only.

Great ambience. Really authentic mallu food and awesome service. You cant go wrong with what you order here. Be it the appam and stew, or the thalasherry biriyani or the kerala chicken fry or the prawns fry. They are all excellent. If you dont like too spicy food, remember to inform them. Same goes with dislike for coconut taste. Dont forget to wrap up your meal with an Ada prathaman or semiya payasam or a coconut custard, or sharing all of them family style 🥳 Strongly recommended for an immensive mallu meal

Delicious food, Authentic kerla style of serving, few unique combinations like parotha with chicken currry superb

This place serves authentic kerala food. The payasum quantity is less then expected. The ambience is pretty cool!

First of all thank you to kerala cafe to allow my puppy. It was fantastic experience with food and ambience. Love it❤

Food is served in a great way but the place isnt economical at all. Also the service was horrible when I went there on the next day of Onam. Me and my friends waited for 1 hour and then they missed out on 1-2 items in all meals.Also once they put the meal, which is quite small serving, youll have to call them for 5-6 times for them to come and refill it. And if they see your plate is almost empty, theyll rush to clean your table instead of asking for a refill. No point paying 300 bucks for a single serving that would cost around 70 rupees in Kerala. (They need to improve like anything on the refill part and keep dedicated staff only for that since youre charging a premium)Also their crowd management is also chaotic. I ordered soup which was pretty average. I didnt get one item that all my friends received in the meal and even after requesting the waiters for couple of times he didnt get it. Later after 2nd serving of rice and add I was about to finish, the waiter rushed to collect my plate and took it off. Totally a bad experience during a festive time.

Amazing experience. Great experience. The food was ample. The chuttney was really great along with paysam.

Food is delicious but there is a waiting and need to increase staff to serve food fast

Went for Onam sadhya. Was a ripoff. Didnt like the food at all

I visited this place with my friends for having season special meals and they are mind blowing. Please try Uniaappam and Jaggery Coconut Custard in desserts. Staff is professional and service is too good. Highly Recommended.

Authentic south indian taste. Dishes from Kerala.Food is good specially in chicken category

If you are a Keralite or have visited Kerala recently and miss the Malabar cuisine already or if you are just a curious foodie looking for a change in cuisine culture. Kerala Cafe is your place.Food-We tasted a plethora of dishes primarily Non vegetarian which included Sea food, Chicken, Mutton and Buff. Ill be talking about the ones that made an impact for me in more detail..We started with a serving of what looked like Kokam sharbat but apparently was Herbed warm water to get your Stomach and Liver running for the food lineup.Another set of Welcome drink followed, namely Pineapple Kulukki Sarbath and Lime Kulukki Sarbath.Pineapple Kulukki Sarbath- This was a water base Pineapple Sarbhat with added Sabja acting as a coolant. It was refreshing specially for the warm afternoon. One tiny thing missing was the drink was more watery and less acidic as a Pineapple drink should be..Lime Kulukki Sarbath- In simpler words Lemonade served in Malabar style. It had the punch and acidity of Lemon with perfect zest balanced by Sabja. We loved the fact how Sabja was a common ingredient amongst both the drinks. It was as if a sign denoting the barrage of spices coming our way..The 1st round of Artillery started with Soups..Kozhi Koll soup- A plain clear soup with richness of chicken stock and tons of flavour induced. The focus of this soup isnt much on chicken pieces or the delicious leg piece one can spot in the picture but in the fragrance..Mutton Bone soup- Paya soup Malabar way. The goodness of the hidden treasures inside the bone and the tangy bitter curry powder combined. If you are looking for a cold remedy… Viola!.Side Dishes-We tasted 5 appetizers on our visit namely. Starting withChicken Ghee Roast- Chicken when it looks that red my heart just melts like butter. Clearly our favourite of the lot. Delicious visually and gastronomically..Buff Thattukada fry- Buff fingers with kerala style ginger chutney. Give me a mug of beer and these munchies and I’m set for the day. Limited restaurants in Pune serve good quality buff. One such I found at Kerala Café. Which brings us to our 2nd Buff dish for the day..Buff Double Fry- One would love this Double fry wrapped up in slices of bread or rolled up in Kerala paratha and that’s exactly what we did. Soft Chewy Buff absorbs a lot of taste. Best enjoyed with a bread which compliments and distributes the flavour uniformly..Prawns Coconut Fry- For someone who comes from Konkan region there can never be enough of coconut in the food, specially Sea food. Prawns shallow friend in coconut oil and garnished with more coconut fit the Kerala agenda. Light on spices it’s an ideal choice for delicate stomach...Prawns KC Special, Idiyappam and Coconut rice- Coconut rice is one dish which goes with any and every dish Malabar cuisine has to offer. We enjoyed Coconut rice with Prawns KC special and all above mentioned dishes. Even with the curd curry and rasam from the Meal. Idiyappam doesn’t have much to offer on taste but is a treat for your eyes. It’s like spaghetti pasta put together nicely for presentation. Too pretty to dig in and eat it..Puttu- Different types of Cereal mixed and baked together to give us lovely cakes of Puttu. It is a pretty dry course served along or instead of rice. Make sure you soak it with curry to enjoy it even more..Desserts- After this barrage of flavours it was time for Dessert. Rice is a main component be it dessert or main course. We had Chickoo and Tender Coconut flavoured Payasam. Both rich in taste and heavy. The chickoo payasam was bit too sweet for our taste but the tender coconut was bang on.Service and Ambiance-Kerala café has brilliant service and an attentive staff. The interiors of the café are specially and beautifully designed keeping Malabar theme in mind. We found the interior to be little dark for a bright sunny afternoon.Overall- A must try place for foodies. Very conveniently situated and the owners are warm and welcoming, be it service or feedback. Looking forward for all Vegetarian food visit.

Amazing place for authentic kerela style thali. Its Generally served unlimited. I loved the food there

1 star less because its a noisy place. But food is very tasty. Must try this restaurant!

Kerala cafe - the name as it suggests it has food from south side Kerala. Awesome foodie spot and a must visit they have 2 branch in Pune and 1 in Vasai(the original branch) food was absolutely lip smacking and ambiance was very soothing. There were lot of foreigners too trying to taste Indian spices flavours at a very tight place.Food, deserts, drinks almost everything on the table looked right and I have no hesitation at all to recommend all my fellow foodies to visit this place once and i am sure you will fall in love with the food here. Staff was very friendly and suggested most food items for me

One of the best place for kerala food. Love d this place ❤️.

The ambience of this place is really great. The waiters are really good in what they do. The price is little too high but the food is good. For a moment i felt as if I am in my hometown in Kerala because of the way the whole place is designed! The food could have been better for sure...but overall its good place to visit

Food was really delicious 🤩 but really disappointed with Coconut ice cream . Please don’t expect and order bonda 🥥 ice cream

I always love visiting this place. Have visited the original location at Baner, the branch at Kalyani Nagar and this new location in Baner as well. This new location is more airy, has natural light and is bigger. All covid precautions are taken. The food is amazing and I definitely will keep coming back.

One of my most favorite places. Always the experience is superb and overwhelming. Love the surmai fry served here.

Excellent place to satisfy your authentic Kerala food cravings. Menu is mainly around chicken, mutton and sea food. Must try any dish with Kerala curry and Appam. I tried surmai pollichathu in starter and pomfret in Kerala curry with appam for main course. It was tasty. Also you must try their coconut ice cream. It was very tasty. They have very nice interior, giving typical feeling of a Kerala restaurant. I went Saturday afternoon, it was not crowded that much. I think it must be crowded in evening on weekend. So plan accordingly. They have ample parking space.

Decent Kerala theme restaurant.nice taste.we tried chicken Appam thali and Veg Appam thali. Both was tasty.good authentic use of coconut, curry leaves and rice on the recipes.Decent ambience, comfortable seating.they take reservations.I dont know about parking, you should call and check before getting your four wheeler as Baner these days has difficult time with parking.Overall good restaurant for taste, service and ambience.

Very beautiful ambiance. Authentic Kerala Cousine.

Authentic kerala taste with very good ambience and feel of the place. We ordered few traditional kerala meals like surmai meal, double chicken meal . There were several items in the meal, i dont remeber the names of all but chicken roast was good and fish and fish curry cooked coconut water and using coconut was really osam apart from that the sweet dish payassum was also very sweetest. They have provided the rassam and butter milk. Gave 4 stars because they dont provide limited gravy when asked and limited rice with so much expensive meal dish. But worth a try if you have to kerala and though you didnt had a proper kerala authentic food their.

In brief (ratings out of 5):Overall - 3.5 (there is no option of specifying in decimal and 3 would have been too low)Ambience n others:Booking experience in restaurant - 2Service - 5 (tipped an unusual amount.. that happy)Ambience - 4 (not that u will love it, but good)Soups:Tomato basil soup - 3 (more creamier in taste)Prawns manchow soup - 5 (loved the spiciness)Starters:Mushroom kurumulagittathu - 3 (blunt taste)Chicken boneless roast - 3 (blunt taste)Karimeen pollichathu - 5 (loved it)Main Course:Buff appam thali - 3 (go for only fried buff and chutneys)Chicken malabari curry - 4 (not so spicy as mentioned)Tamarind rice - 4 (might have loved more with fish curry)Drinks:Moru velam - 3 (spicy buttermilk. Had better)Kalipu machan - 3 (neither loved it nor hated it)Lime kulukki sharbat - 1 ( hated it at that moment)Desserts:Coconut jaggery custard - 4.5 (loved it though sweet is not my type of taste)Jackfruit icecream - 4Tender coconut icecream - 3.5Filter kapi - 5 (ofcourse I had better earlier too, but in that moment I just loved it)Story:Ok first of all, I dont know what the booking means here. As I booked via Zomato for 4 people for 14:00, I reached at 13:55. I was told to wait until n unless table gets free. I think then whats the purpose of booking. Anyhow, moving forward.We went inside. Huge crowd. Of course from previous para, u might have already guessed that.First, we ordered soups. My parents ordered tomato basil soup and I and my wife ordered prawns manchow soup. I loved the prawns soup. But didnt like tomato basil soup much. It tasted more creamier than spicy which my taste buds might have not liked. My parents liked it though. Yes, you guessed right, they dont eat much spicy food.Then, we ordered starters. Mushroom kurumulagittathu (mushroom pepper fry), Chicken boneless roast, karimeen pollichathu (fish cooked in banana leaf). I loved the fish very much. I didnt like the taste of other dishes. Blunt taste for me.In between, my parents and my wife were not able to take up more spice so I had to order Jaggery Coconut Custard there n then. We loved it. That melted jaggery on top, too tasty.Then, we ordered main course.Buff appam thali: Fried buff was good. Coconut chutneys were simple but awesome in taste. Appam was ok. I have eaten better appams made by my mom. Buff curry, lets just say its presence didnt matter.Chicken Malabar curry: liked it with the wheat parotta.Tamarind rice: was good. But I feel it would have tasted better with spicy fish curry. Need to try next time.In between, we ordered many drinks.Moru Vellam: spicy buttermilk. Liked it.Kalipu Machan: coke mixed with orange juice and lemon juice. Kind of ok. Would have tasted better if masala would also have been added. My 2 cents.Lime kulukki sarbath: chia seeds in the lemonade. I didnt like it at all. My wife did though.Then, the desserts turn.Ordered tender coconut ice-cream and jackfruit ice-cream. Loved the latter one. Tender coconut ice-cream was ok. I would recommend having jackfruit and tender coconut icecreams from Natural icecream as they have small pieces in it which I (at least) enjoy more.Then at last, filter kapi. Good. I loved it.Overall, a bit expensive experience but a nice one though.P.S. Kindly forgive me for any grammatical or spelling mistake.

Very good food and ambience, crowded on weekends. Thought its little expensive. Authenticity of Kerala cuisine is perfectly maintained even in the vessel in which they serve

I have been at kerala cafe for dinner, the food was really very good and tasty. They use coconut in there food which is speciality of kerala food. The fish and chicken was really tasty. They have varieties of biryani, the chicken biryani, prawn biryani and bamboo biryani. It was delicious food there.They also served thali and interesting thing is tgey serve it in banana leaf.In dessert jaggery coconut custord was amazing. I loved it.Overall very good place and food is superb. You must visit it atleast once...

Not as spicy as everyone claims but just about right (the waiters warn you in case theres something extra spicy on the way :) )Quite authentic food. Buff curry, Mutton Stew and fried fish are amazing. All with a Kulkki sarbath rounds of the package.Nicely designed interiors with Malayalam songs as well. Good and polite staff.

Its not authentic Kerala cuisine. I didnt like ..

Located on Baner main road, this place is known to serve authentic malabar cuisine. The spiciness of the food and the dark interiors covered with decorated walls is sure to teleport you to Kerala. The ambience of the place is pretty elegant with calm music playing in the background.Coming to the menu, this place serves only authentic kerala delicacies like fish items, spicy curries and desserts. Just to clarify this place doesnt serve the cliched south items like idli and dosa.Some dishes that are worth mentioning :- On entering we were served a warm red coloured herbed water which is said to increase appetite and is known to cleanse our blood.- Pomfret roast: A whole pomfret slow cooked to perfection. The fish was well marinated with spices and was tender enough to enjoy its taste.- Chicken Ghee Roast : Roasted chicken cooked in red chilli paste. Since it was roasted in ghee, it gave it an interesting aroma. The dish was appealing to eyes but the flavour of ghee overpowered the spices. Though less spicy, the taste was good.- Buff Thattukada fry : Buff is basically water buffalo which is legal in India (unlike beef). Buff is known for its chewy texture and mild taste. This dish was deep fried buff meat served with a coconut chutney. I didnt find it spicy though as they claimed. The chutney was too good and complemented its taste.

One of the authentic Kerela food in town must visit to enjoy delicious Kerela foodMust try Appam Thali if you are vegetarian... As this place is mostly famous for Non-vegetarian food but even vegetarian ppl dont be sad u have many options too...

Very pricy...not worth the money you sent vs the qualitu

Ambience is good but food is sub par

Lovely service, lovely food. Translates to a lovely experience.

This place is located in Baner, 2-3 mins away from K Factory.Ambiance is too good. Interior is also good, walls are covered with wallpaper of Trademark Elephant. Lights are also good to make nice mood. Food quality and taste is good. As it is Kerala cafe, food have taste of coconut and Malabar spices. They serve authentic Kerala Thalis too. Must visit.

Somewhat authentic with a twist. Gud service,God ambience and courteous staff. There are options available for food lovers. Its a mix of kerala and other cuisines. Some dishes which we usually eat are made in kerala style. When taste palletes are craving for different taste try it.

Very nice place....you get authentic Kerela food...more important is the taste is really yummy... I tried both veg and non veg... The chutnis and other combo offered with each item is really awesome....

The Chettinad was reach in Spices which looks mouth watering.Paneer Masala Curry: A perfect blend of  authentic south Indian spices, Coconut and Paneer(Cottage cheese). The taste was really good. Best combination try with Appam or Paratha.The softness paratha is really good and Best class Apam.Bamboo Biryani: This time we go with Veg. The Biryani cooked inside a Bamboo (its strange, right?). The taste was normal as other biryani i had before. I didnt find any thing special by making the biryani inside a bamboo. But it looks amazing and smells nice.Drinks: They serves some Mock tails which are limited. We tried Raw Mangoo Kulukki.Service: A quick service as they enough number of attenders. Very friendly and co-operative attenders having knowledge on the Menu.The Food is perfect what they charged. The taste,quantity and quality all are in best place.Final Verdict: A must visit place if you want to try some genuine and authentic kerala food. Definitely you are going to love the food.Try the delicacies as suggested above.Food:5/5Ambiance:4/5Service:4/5Value for money :4/5

I liked the ambience..food was good ..tried appam thali with prawns in it.. prawns were yum.. its niceAlso tried bamboo chicken biryani.. I didnt like it. If you love Malabar biriyani then you might like it. as it was slightly sweet ..that was literally poison for me.. not at all happy with it.For refreshment we tried raw mango drink..that was good..Overall I feel ..its better to opt for south Indian items like dosa..but biriyani is a big no from my side.Some suggest beef also but as I have never tried couldnt comment on that.

When it comes to the ambience, this is one of the best place to dine out in Baner. They operate til 3.30 pm in the day and reopen at 6.30 pm til 11.30. If u r visiting on weekends, please be prepared to wait for a minimum of 30 mins.Being a south indian restaurant, It meets the authenticity of typical Kerala food very well. Though my north indian friends found it tasty too. For vegetarians, Veg mappas is a stand out item. No need to worry for the non vegetarians since almost all the dishes are yummy. In desserts, Palada paysam is a must try itemm Regarding the service, other than the extra delay in serving food, the staffs r very gentle and attentive. You will get a warm welcome all the time.Take a ride to there mates. Trust me, u wont be disappointed.

The place is done so nicely..the exterior reminds you of the woodiness of kerala. Considering the crammed small eats with limited glass frontage, this place offers ample space. The wooden porche/ waiting area, the bright colourful artistry on walls the menu with mohiniattam dancer and english like the keralites speak..simbly eggstatix ..even the serving staff was so vernacular in look and feel...There were many many things to chose from including all you can eat combo meals...appam idiyappam...puttu..as accompaniments.We had the buttermilk(moru velam)..plain solid buttermilk with chillies, with surmai mango curry accompanied by idiyapam and appam and of course masala papad.Masala papad looked all prepped up and pretty but waa a tad too salty.Buttermilk was heavenly..plsin solid full of green chillies...like music with bass...Mango Surmai Curry was superb too.It was a tad expensive at 856 rs for the fare (quantity eise)but then #dineout with cadrshback bridged the gap. Overall the restaurant was a surprise decor, ambience and food wise in that crowded milieu of the road and one who really enjoys kerala fare was left feeling fulfilled and with myriad options..
