This group covers the non-Asian restaurants, cafes, bars and food businesses that also appear in a mixed-cuisine food scene, including American diners, pizza, Mexican food, burgers, steakhouses and bakeries. Standard US restaurant norms apply: lunch and dinner service with a quieter stretch between, cards and tap-to-pay accepted almost everywhere, and a tip of 15-20% customary for table service. Fast food and quick-service counters expect payment up front and tipping is optional. Bars check ID for anyone who looks under 30, and the drinking age is 21 nationwide. Many restaurants in this group take reservations online through third-party platforms, while casual and fast-food spots are walk-in only. Sales tax is added at the register on top of the menu price and varies by city and state, so the final total is usually a few percent higher than the posted prices suggest.

The food was delicious, and it was so refreshing to have the menu completely labeled with allergies without having to request for it and ask about every individual item. Items are clearly labeled as vegan, gluten free, or containing peanuts, and there is a LARGE selection. We will definitely go back!

Excellent food, great service, everything is made fresh to order. Highly recommend the Fish fry and achappam crumble. My friends loved the Crab Roast curry, pothichoru and meen pollichathu.

I didnβt want to leave a negative review for a Kerala restaurant, but the service and the unexplained charges made it unavoidable. The food was just okay, and the portions were noticeably small. The raita that came with the biriyani was barely enough, and when we asked for extra, they charged us for it, something most restaurants donβt do for basic accompaniments. They also served us a chipped plate (photo attached). When we returned it, they didnβt bother offering a replacement, which is unacceptable for any dining experience. We were a group of five, including a 4 yearβold. Despite that, they added a 22% gratuity without informing us. On top of that, they added a 5% βnonβcash adjustmentβ again, with no explanation. For the quality of service and the lack of transparency in billing, the experience simply did not justify the price.

If you want to experience authentic Kerala food, this is the place to go. The food was incredibly fresh, aromatic and delicious. We started with chai (an absolute stunner), along with pazham pori and ullivada. For the main course, we ordered beef ularthiyathu, fish pollichathu, pepper mutton, parotta, chapati, mutton curry and a Kerala meal. Every single item was top-notch. It genuinely felt like having a proper Kerala-style feast. We had to end the meal the same way we started - with another round of chai. A must-visit spot and definitely somewhere weβll be coming back to.

This is one of the best genuine Kerala restaurants I have ever been too in a long time. Authentic and true to its roots - the food taste amazing , the hospitality from the owners was warming. This place is very new hence not a lot of photos, but highly recommend to give this place a try and I promise you will not be disappointed!
