Grand pavilion is one of the oldest restaurants in kochi. Go there for some authentic cochin cuisine. We had their special dum biriyani (DP Biriyani) where they stuff each biriyani into small earthen pots and open the dum at your table. We tried prawns , chicken and mutton biriyani.We also tried their beef fry and prawns chilly. Biriyani was great..the rice and meat were well cooked and tasted great. The mutton masala and chicken masala felt kind of similar but nevertheless it was a good biriyani. Overall the quantity of meat in the biriyani was great.Prawns chilly tasted great and beef fry was okayish. The only thing that bothered us was the premium charges for the food items. Dont get me wrong.The food was great.But i felt the biriyani didn't have anything special to warrant a 510 rs price tag.Neither does the ambience of the hotel.Also something small like a cup of lime tea costs 90 rs.They try to compensate by providing services like valet parking,serving alcohol at the table (this would be the one of the very few family restaurants in kerala who serve alcohol at table) and good table service (courteous and responsive staff).There is a decent wait time of 30 mins during weekends and sundays. Ample parking space.

It was my first time dinning in grand and I could see that the restaurant is quite popular as there was a waiting for 30mins. After the long wait we ordered fish curry meals and to our disappointment it was already finished, so do come before 1:30pm to try their fish meals, hence we got veg meals with fish side and beef fry. The veg meals was one of the best I’ve had in Kochi, each and every item was delicious, coconut style fish curry was really good and we thoroughly enjoyed the meal. Service is average but that’s understandable as it gets difficult when the restaurant is fully packed. Overall its a great place to have some scrumptious Kerala food and will be coming back to try their famous biriyani too.

Without a doubt, the grand hotel is a historical Kochi establishment. For years it's stood in the midst of M.G Road as a landmark. This isn't my first time here, I've come here multiple times over the years. I believe what keeps it going is this self propagating machine that is historical precedence. The place has been offering fine dining even before Kochi became the Kochi it is today. What it has done however is fall behind on the quality of the food. Sure they offer a wide range of cuisines for you to enthusiastically run your fingers across the menu, but the missing ingredient is the lack of flair or passion, the beef fry and porotta which you'd be hard pressed to mess up was disappointing. The porotta was almost certainly reheated frozen porotta , and the beef fry had spicy outer layer that was a complete stranger to the meat inside. The chicken parmesan too was flat tasting. The messiahs of the meal were the tempura prawns and the biriyani, the prawns deep fried to perfection in a beautifully smooth batter served with a honey , oil , chilli based sauce. The biriyani harkens you back to the days of the classic biriyani with a whole egg , back to the days before the invasion of mandhi. The souffle was inspired. Come here to be part of a Kochi that has proudly stood here as a symbol of persistence in the face of change and while you're there, have the food too i guess.

We tried the Ammachi Chilli fish, Alappey prawns curry, Appam and Kerala Parotta. The taste and service were polar opposites. The food was good, except for the prawns which could have been a bit less tangy. The Ammachi chiili fish was boneless cubes of seer fish in kerala spices , a dry dish. The Kerala Parotta was humongous, it's equal to two. Paid 1200 Rs. Prices, taste, ambience etc were all good, however, the service was atrociously bad. Had to ask twice even for water before it was served. All the wait staff were gossiping in a corner folding tissues for some purpose. Took them a while to even realise that no1 had taken our order. I guess given the legacy of the hotel/restaurant the staff are equally complacent. Didn't bother with photos of the food as we basically wanted to just dine and leave. We visited between 4-5 PM.

Good food but extremely bad service. Post internet and travel sites, they get lots of tourist customers like me. But the staff is totally untrained to guide them on food choices. A Malayali will probably get better service from this hotel. We ordered fish meal thalis as it looked as safer choice and as per internet reviews, good choice. Captain did not even advise other choices. But then the meal was substandard ( we had eaten sadya thali veg in ‘Rasa’ on road from Munnar earlier day and were mesmerised ). Also on three fish meals, only one fish gravy served. Rest of the meal, better not to say about. Fish fry ( king fish ) was pathetic. I probably get better on food stalls. Service staff completely unhelpful.

One of the best restaurants to have Fish biriyani 😁. Their biriyani is one of the best in kerala for sure . They have an extensive menu consisting of Kerala and continental cuisine. We have been regularly visiting this restaurant and what we ordered always turned out to be great. Service is another highlight of this restaurant. Even with such a packed restaurant there is someone always there for you. They do get crowded on the weekend especially for lunch . Food is a bit on the pricey side but worth it if you ask me . Ambience is ok. There is plenty of parking available. A must visit for anyone who loves food, especially Biriyani.
