Karimpumkala The Family Restaurant

Food was okay. Chapathi was very hard and veg curry and beef curry was also not up to the mark. Loved Kappa and kattan.

cost effective food. average taste and small quantity .

Feb,22nd Saturday I had lunch at this restaurant. Kappa, fish curry, karimeen pollichathu were ordered. Quantity of Kappa was very less. Mulakitta curry and karimeen were okay since the fish was fresh. Then we ordered Chemmeen roast,expecting fried chemmeen with thick gravy, coconut pieces with onion and veppila spread over it. But to our surprise 10 to 12 pieces of boiled small size Chemmeen spread in small drops of oil and ordinary chilly power given. Chemmeen gave us a puzhungiya feel. Wife poured out the oil. We asked the supplier is this Chemmeen roast.? Yes this is it..Lesson.. Never ever order anything without asking how it is prepared. The prices were very high compared to the atmosphere they provide. An ordinary reataurant non ac charging 4 star rate even higher than Paragon restaurant.

The food was both overpriced, and tasteless. Furthermore, the portions were too small and not worth the price. Also, the service is average. Due to the lack of menu cards, the waiter keeps verbally describing the available foods continuously and repeatedly. As mentioned by others, it's important to get the price first. Because there is dynamic pricing for all. What's funny is that even though they give you the total cost, it's rare to receive a detailed bill. Here, neither the quality nor the experience was worth it. In fact, you're paying for a terrible dining experience that ruined a pleasant meal. Ambience: it's an old house building that has been renovated.
