We tried the tasting menu at the restaurant. The service was impeccable all through. Great price point as well. The sambharam pani puri is a nice touch. I would have liked some potato filling. I loved the pazham pori mixture chaat - it somehow works. The inji puli chicken was pitch perfect. The prawn and fish had a dusting of dried fish adds to the flavour. Nool parotta and appam were lovely. Beef was flavourful but too chewy. The chicken and mutton were amazing and so was the ulli theeyal. Interestingly we ordered the unniyappam falooda separately but that barely had any unniyappam and was probably the only disappointment although the husband enjoyed it. I loved the palada cheese cake.. I wish the the toddy was real. Lives up to the hype!

The incorporation of coconuts into almost all dishes might be something to get used to. The distinct taste of coconut in 2 of 3 dishes I tried made me search for a reason and it turned out it's a thing in the south. Some more salt could amplify the flavors and the chicken curry could be made better with the juiciness intact. All in all, it's a 7.6 out of 10.

One of the worst foods i could ever have in kerala being a malayalli! The chicken was under cooked all the dishes. Fusion of foods just disintegrates the traditional taste of dishes. Very Very over hyped! The price is okay but might be heavy for some on their pockets. Nevertheless my food expectations from chef pillai were shattered to the ground!!!
