As I had mentioned in my earlier reviews, being a hard core Malayalee I would search and find anywhere possible to satisfy my homely food cravings. Surprisingly I could do the same in Yorkshire as well. We found this restaurant coincidentally through a cab driver who was also a Malayalee. He suggested this restaurant and we decided to try out for dinner. No matter which part of the world we stay, Malayalees have a special passion for yummylicious spicy food. We ordered the chicken Malabar biriyani with parotta and prawns masala. The spices were in right amount and parotta was crispy. Prawns masala was too good. Definitely coming back here next time we visit York. Cheers!

Came here on a quiet weekday for a catch up with my friend. Was served and looked after by Joshua Before coming I made a online reservation and put in the notes we wanted the crab curry... And I'm so glad I did... I believe they took the time to take the meat out of the crab and out it back in its shell and placing the curry sauce over the curry... This was exceptionally very good and highly recommend. This reminded me of my travels and the indian crab curry i always have in Malaysia . Another highlight was finally getting a proper paratha (aka Roti's in Malaysia ) so many times I've been to restaurants and never gave me a proper paratha... Well they serve them here and they are very well made... Flaky chewy and the right crisp to softness... Teamed exceptionally well with the crab curry. We requested the Thali with no lamb - mo problem at all. Ot was replaced with another chicken curry... Every component of the Thali was tasty and generous huge chunky meat and prawns... At least two pieces of meat in each little dish. Not knowing how big the portions was we also had a meat platter and a chicken masala dosa... Dosa was generously filled...Too generous... But this does reflect in the price compared to other places I have had them at. Meat platter was a crispy beef, great texture...But a little tough. Chicken 65...Very juicy and flavoursome.... And another chicken in a spicy sauce...All very tasty but would be perfect with more salad on plate 😉 Overall a very relaxing evening, great food and great service from Joshua who took time to talk to us. Oh oh oh did I mention the mango lasso is also a very big jug!!! Definitely coming back...But next time I'll make sure not to order so much as the portions are big from Coconut Lagoon
