The food quality at Kokum is exceptional. The food has an authentic Indian taste. The service was excellent. Had a chance to meet the owner who was ery welcoming and a very good host. Would highly recommend as one of the best restaurants in town.
After a long gap had an opportunity to visit Kokum again, this time with family. Owner recommended chicken lollipop for my 5-year-old and mango lassi which she thoroughly enjoyed. The chicken lollipop was unlike we get in india, had different marinade and less spicy, perfect for my child. Another starter recommended by some previous customers was chilly paneer which also was very tasty.
We also ordered Butter chicken for my wifes taste which she couldn't stop raving about. As for myself I wanted to try Rajasthani Lal maas which was a spicy blend of boneless lamb cooked in gravy. Certainly for someone's hot palate, worth recommended.
Overall had a good experience in a very cosy restaurant.
We visited for an early sitting and the restaurant was quite quiet. However, from about 6:30 a steady trickle of customers arrived. The food was delicious... Some of the best Indian food we've ever had. Service was friendly and attentive in all the good ways (the manger noticed our little girl struggling a bit with some of the spice and immediately provided some cooking yogurt).
The meat dishes were fantastic. Excellent quality ingredients and authentic, original flavours. Will make this a regular visit.
I visited this restaurant yesterday with my daughter. Very nice and tasty food.
Their manager is very knowledgeable. Recommended spot on dishes for Vegetarians.
Excellent service and ambience.
Awesome Food and Outstanding Service
Kokum has brilliant ambiance and lovely bar. The Aloo-Palak chaat we ordered was out of this world. Also we had Paneer Tikka which was 10/10.
The mains was Malai Kofta and Kulcha Naan. Again this was fantastic. I personally thanked the chef for such an amazing food.
Recommend visiting this place. We have already planned to visit this weekend.
Never had better curries since coming to UK, just like our home made food in Kerala.. It was served hot and the spice was very apt. Would recommend this to anyone planning a homely treat for any number of guests!
This was out third visit to the Kokum and without doubt it is one of our favourite restaurants. The food is simply delicious. We especially enjoyed the biriyani, lamb chops and the spinach chaat! Beautiful ambience and attentive service so cannot ask for more. Highly highly recommend! We will definitely keep going back.
A firm favourite of mine. I have been four times before with family but this time went with two friends. Lovely intimate setting with pleasant decor and background music. Staff very receptive and discreet.
We went for a non veg feast enjoying the fish fry, chicken lollipop and Adraki lamb chops for starters, and the Malabar prawns and the Punjabi Kukkud for mains. All beautifully presented, tasty distinct flavours, and deceptively filling! Washed down very well with a bottle of wine!
Was too full to have dessert in this occasion but highly recommend the shrikand cheesecake and the brownie!
Will be back again soon!
I take pleasure to write review on The KOKUM. Excellent authentic Indian food and great service, Staff were very helpful. The food, ambience and service have come together to create a perfect mixture of amazing time.. The flavourful food is so amazing that you want to keep eating.. Must visit and enjoy .
What a lovely place. So cosy, clean and beautiful.
The food was amazing and the taste is so authentic.
Must try:
Anything from the tandoor. Veg and non veg both are amazing.
Chilli garlic naan and lachcha paratha was awesome.
Lahsuni dal was too good.
And all the cocktails taste out of the world. Good work on that and the staff is very kind and polite too.
This is my second visit to Kokum and I had certainly enjoyed my first one, but honestly the experience this time was even better. Only goes on to say this place is something that qualifies for repeated visits.
The attention to details in terms of food, service, ambience, hospitality is 5 star. Being a foodie I can only say Kokum is only going to get better with each passing day. The quality of their Rotis, Nans, Kulchas is up there in comparison to the best in the industry.
All in all it’s a must must visit place to be. I will certainly make my third visit during Diwali for sure.
Amazing hole in the wall. The chef is very gifted, food was very flavoursome. The quality of the meat, fish and other ingredients was top notch. All in all a good meal. The manager is very friendly and professional. Would highly recommend if you are in the neighbourhood.
Went on Valentine’s Day special dinner event. Lovely ambience. Food was excellent and authentic. Chicken lollipops and Lal Maas was the best. Very unique variety of cocktails. Highly recommended
It’s so good to visit a Indian / Curry restaurant that does not have one pot of gravy and just chuck what ever ingredients and a spoonful of chilli power. Here you get Wonderfully fresh sauces. Full of flavour and complex spices. The chef came out and asked what we though! He had real pride in what he was creating. This is now our go to restaurant.
Excellent place and great food selection. Service was good. They have made the best use of the space available, therefore try not to have a table near the bar/tills as this is the collection point for takeaway as well. If that is the only table available then take it, but if you have a choice... I highly recommend.
We had a great time at Kokum. The quality of the food was excellent. Special mention to the yummy lamb biriyani which was flavourful and the lamb was very tender. The service provided was excellent. Will definitely visit again.
This was my first Indian food I have in UK. The food was tasty, nice and hot. You can found a few authentic Indian restaurant same good in Hong Kong. Some friends live nearby the restaurant put same complement as I do, and called on “Take away” service all day. If you are not known Indian food well, you can ask the waitress , who is really helpful to advise you the favour, which you will definitely make it in next time.
In fact, I made up reservation to have a feast with my family, tonight.
The food was fresh and so so tasty ! I would highly recommend the lamb chops, they were AMAZING and cut like butter. High levels of flavour and service. The chef came out to talk to us which was a lovely touch. We will definitely go back and if you haven’t already you should make a visit.
Dinner for four last night. Absolutely loved the place. Food was excellent, staff attentive and friendly. Food tasted very authentic and planning a return soon. Best Indian I have had recently in the area.
