Stopped at the Kerala House canteen for lunch while we were at New Delhi, here goes the review:
The place was highly overcrowded and the place can be better managed. The seating was limited.
We tried the chicken biryani and the Kerala meals.
The chicken biryani was very flavourful and tasty. The portion came with 2 pieces of chicken and a good quantity of rice. The chicken biryani was priced at Rs 150
The Kerala meals were good but could have been better. It was priced at Rs 80. Overall we were happy with the food served.
Not worth the hype. We reached for lunch @ 1.15 and got the token 129. We were made to sit after waiting for 10 minutes.
The Fish fry is a little bit tasty, else Chicken Biryani is not at all convincing. No taste, no gravy, half cooked chicken pieces, no special masala used as such for cooking, thick rice (not basmati). Chicken fry was also not worth the taste.
You may give it a try because the cost is less. No other X factor to promote it
The food was finger licking good. The buff was cooked to perfection and marinated in delicious masalas. Authentic taste of Kerala prepared in coconut 🥥 oil
A must for anyone who wants a basic place to have an excellent Kerala meal. We had the veg meal, kappa, and fish fry between two, all super tasty. Possibly our favourite meal we've had in India. For new people and tourists, you go to the desk and buy your food, take a seat and the staff will come (may take 10 minutes or so) to get your ticket and then they go get you trays of food and bring over curries etc. There is hot dilute juice avaliable, so you don't even need to buy a drink, but there is bottled water. Glad we went here and may be back before we leave for home.
Food quality is good but not that great.
When you are away from hometown for weeks or months, then you will get around 60-70% authentic Kerala taste. Not more than that.
I had Chicken Biriyani, Meals, Fish curry and Fry at two three occasions. Its above average but you cannot expect that authenticity also. Pricing of food is affordable.
