Summary
“Not your ‘bog standard’ Indian” (“don’t look for chicken tikka masala, onion bhajis and poppadums here, you won’t find them”) – this stalwart Leicester local – now with offshoots in Nottingham, Leamington Spa and West Byfleet – instead specialises in “innovative” Keralan dishes “using the likes of rabbit, pork or salmon” that “never fail to hit the spot”.
Summary
“Wonderful Keralan cuisine” – “fresh and full of flavour”; “mainly vegetarian but also excellent seafood” – is on the menu at this 20-year-old Leicester flagship near ‘The Tigers’ stadium. (It’s nowadays part of a group that now has spin-off venues in Nottingham, Leamington Spa and West Byfleet.)

For 34 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
