It's a tiny yet cosy place in Juhu where you get amazing food. Their flavours and spices are from the Thalassery region in Kerala. The ambiance is great and they have good seating arrangements. The only issue is that it doesn't have an ac section yet and it does get a little hot later in the afternoon, but that wasn't much of a problem since they had a lot of fans switched on. The service is very quick. The staff is polite, also Mr Cyril Coelho and Mr Savio Fernandes helped us picking out the dishes according to what I liked and gave me amazing service. Coming to the food which was really tasty and I really liked their presentation as well. The dishes that I tried here were: - Chicken Dry Fry: It was crispy fried chicken which was marinated with their authentic spices and was really tasty. The chicken was really juicy and soft and had a crispy coating on top of it. It was the perfect starter and I just kept eating it. I would recommend having this here. - Prawns Dry Fry: It was prawns fried and tossed herbs and with the marination. It's a little spicy but it's got a lot of flavour. It was different compared to the other fried prawns I've had in the past but this had a unique taste. - Pomfret Fry: Its a whole fried pomfret marinated with masala and spices. The fish was fresh and really tasty. The fish was cooked well and it's a good dish to share between two people. - Chicken Biryani: As soon as this came to the table, it was really fragrant and the moment I had the first bite of the biryani I was just blown away with the explosion of flavours and spices. It was absolutely delicious and the biryani was really well made. The quantity was good, it was sufficient for two people. I would definitely recommend having this here. Finally they could add a few dessert options to their menu, but I'm sure they will do that in the future. Other than that it was a great experience and I would love to visit this place again in the future to try out the rest of their dishes.

This quite new resturant located in Juhu, just next to Iscon Temple, serves great food. As the name says, its Nambiar's Kerala Kitchen serves very authentic Kerala flavours. As you enter the resturant, the famous Nambiar Chatten greets you. The menu is small but has enough variety. There's Pomfret, King Fish and Prawns in Sea Food apart from variety of Chicken and Vegetarian dishes. Being a Sea Food lover, I opted for Pomfret Pollichathu or Pomfret wraped and cooked in Banana leaves. Great on taste with lots of Garlic and other spices. It was little oily and when I asked them, they informed that since they need to cook the fish in Banana leaf, they need to cook with little more oil. Next I tried Prawns Masala with Parrotta. Very flaky Parrotta with amazing Prawns curry. Had Masala Chaas for accompaniment and Dal Payasam for dessert. Both of them quite refreshing. Overall, a great place to have authentic Kerala food in suburbs. Reason for 4 stars is lack of Air Conditioning and Parking in the surrounding area, in the summer heat, it's quite difficult to park the car away and walk back to it after amazing food in the hot atmosphere... I will be going there again for their Sadhya on weekends soon!!! Food: 5* Quality of Ingredients: 5* Service: 5* Ambiance: 4*

A bit difficult to spot if not familiar with Juhu..its at the entrance of Juhu market near Arogyanidhi..small space,under 10 tables.No aircon but the fans run at full speed so it's quiet cool for the current season.Got the Chicken Nadan Banana Leaf..comes with pickle,cabbage,avial,a small smattering of boondi in curd and banana chips.Next comes the Kerala boiled rice which has a thicker consistency that normal rice.They usually top it with some sambar.The chicken Nadan Curry comes separately,and is not spicy but has a good balance of it,not bland either. Food was tasty,but could be warmer..it was quite lukewarm.I was the first to arrive so service was fast,but midway it filled up and it began to falter..there was only one guy running around initially. Will be back to try other things soon.

Had a really nice lunch here. Being late on a Friday afternoon, the place was quite empty. I didn't notice if there was any inside seating, but we sat on the outside section. It's protected from the heat and dust of the narrow lane Nambiar's is location by a wall of fake plants. There was just two other tables occupied out of the approximate 7 - 8 of I remember correctly. The waiters were very polite and attentive but didn't seem to know English or Hindi very fluently but just enough to be able to get their message across and understand yours. Don't expect any detailed recommendations. We had the chicken thaali, the prawn masala and a parotha. They brought us a veg thaali and when we asked them, they said the chicken gravy would be coming soon which was a bit strange but oh well. The parotha was just nice and flaky, the way rjs supposed to be. Just wish it arrived while it was hot. The prawn masala was just superb. The gravy / masala itself and the parotha satisfied my spicy, south indian food cravings. The thaali was served with the fat red boiled rice typical from South and Konkan regions. Really delicious, really filling. Served with a bucket (literally) of yum home style sambaar, rasaam and two or three other vegetable dishes whose names I've forgotten already. The late arrival of the chicken was worth it. Huge pieces of chicken in a tasty homely gravy. The two of us couldn't finish all of the food we ordered, we left with our bellies full and two dabbas full too. I'd easily say that this place is value for money. Great food.
