Kerala cafe seafood restaurant

"One of the worst food experiences in kochi. Ordered kerala fish curry and rice, it was so tangy. I am from kerala and I never such worst fish curry. Next we ordered karimeen tawa fry, it was roasted in banana leaf. Completely tasteless. I just ate it as I paid so much money for it. Then came the prawn roast which was ok had it with porotta. This place is run only by hype, nothing else. The view of roadside eatery lures you in then makes you feel dissapointed. Not recommended if you want to have kerala cusinies."

"Fort Kochi has always been my go-to place to enjoy fresh fish dishes. I usually buy quality fish from the local sellers and rely on Kerala Cafe to prepare it. They’ve never disappointed — the way they fry the fish is truly exceptional, and all their recipes are absolutely mouth-watering. Whenever I have guests, Kerala Cafe is my trusted choice. Their dishes always leave a lasting impression and create beautiful memories for everyone. What sets them apart is that they’re the only restaurant in that row that accepts fish brought from outside — a huge plus, as other nearby shops insist you buy their overpriced fish, sometimes at triple the rate. During my last visit with family, I had an unpleasant experience when I tried to buy tea from a nearby shop — they refused to serve me simply because I was a Kerala Cafe customer. That kind of behavior only reinforced my support for Kerala Cafe. So here I am, finally writing a review as a small token of appreciation. Full support to Kerala Cafe! I’ll continue to recommend you to more friends. Keep up the great work!"

"By the time I visited, prawns were over and hence tried a fresh fish along with boiled rice. Got it prepared in about 20 minutes, but the gravy part consisted to tomato and could get the aroma, but was a bit spicy. The owner of the hotel is a seems to be gentleman with a hospitality oriented attitude."

"Had the Grilled Tiger Prawns at Kerala Cafe and honestly, it was a complete disappointment. ₹600 for just five tiny pieces with barely any flesh — total rip-off. The masala had a raw smell as if it wasn’t cooked properly, and the prawns themselves were either undercooked or overcooked — definitely not fresh or done right. For a restaurant that claims to serve authentic Kerala flavours, this was far below expectations. Extremely poor value for money and quality. Wouldn’t recommend at all. Never visit"

"I am a masseuse and I live in California, I always want to update myself and learn other massage techniques. That is why I traveled to India to do an Ayurvedic Massage course at a school in Kannur, in the south of India, which lasted 3 months and when I finished it I went to see a little about other interesting cities in the country. Kochi is a very interesting area, I was there for a week and I traveled quite a bit. With some of my classmates we went to have lunch at this restaurant. We waited a long time after ordering, but when the food arrived everything was delicious. The staff is very kind and professional. I came back to take away some dishes for dinner by myself. I can't wait to go back to India. I highly recommend this place for a fun meal with friends."
