Excellent Keral Cuisine focused restaurant. I wish they were more traditional and true to cuisine regional rather than a fusion. Prawns and squid were very fresh. Kingfish in the red fish curry was a bit off and strong on chilly flavor. For such an establishment it’s a letdown. Service was excellent. Dining room and facilities excellent. Dessert choices very less. Overall an enjoyable experience
Visited Cassava for lunch and it was a wonderful experience. We had Mappila Mutton Curry, Ghee rice with Fish Mango curry and Vegetarian Sadya. All of them were really nice and well prepared. For dessert we opted for Vattalappam and it was superb and well presented. All the items in the menu were mostly authentic Kerala dishes and worth a try.
Service was really attentive especially by Abin at the front desk who guided us to the seat and introduced us to the menu. The person who took care of the service was also very professional.
Restaurant was mostly empty when we visited and it helped in having a pleasant atmosphere for us. The place is also really well furnished with Kerala architecture.
A must visit for top-grade authentic local kerala food. All of the dishes exceeded expectations - Tapioca Stuffed Chicken, Green Chilli Neymeen, Koonthal Ularthiyath & Prawns Vennayil Porichathu. The neymeen tasted fresh off the boat & turned out to be our fav dish paired with black rice. Sambharam alongwith a kappa based canapé in the beginning & Lemon tea to end were complimentary. The kappa stuffing in the chicken breast, with a drool-worthy gravy was an innovative showstopper & perfectly executed.
Populace was sparse, they seem to be more of a dinner-busy restaurant, allowing us to almost have the whole restaurant to ourselves for lunch. Hospitality was excellent, supremely attentive service by Sreejith & Harikrishnan, alongwith the manager. Even the chef found time to check in on us personally. TBH even the people manning the gates at the entrance and exit were extremely pleasant.
Prices indeed meet five star expectations as well, but is completely worth the occasional splurge. For those with a Swiggy One Membership, there's a chunky flat discount of 30% on the total bill, which we availed. They are hosting a seafood lunch fest from 15-25th Sep with around 30 odd dishes, which should be top-tier from all the promise i found during this visit. Do connect with the restaurant for pricing and reservations.
PS : Photos are of half eaten portions 😁 as all dishes were readily served & devoured.
