Le Lumiere Restaurant — Restaurant in Kerala

This place is all about the ambiance and service they offer with plenty of parking space. Its my first visit for dinner with fam and we literally felt like we are going to dine in middle of a forest. I hight appreciate their intelligent planning of Greenery. Even incorporating the large trees as part of the softscape rather than cutting them down and making huts under them and surrounded with bamboos was a beautiful blend of nature to man made structure. They have birds and aquarium too which elevates our mood. Ambiance was one of the best i ever experienced and it really adds up to the overall dining experience. When it comes to service Mr BILAL was the waiter for us and he really needs a special mention for his efforts. This guy was really energetic and pleasant even at night and was really attentive. After serving our starters he came back to take our review about the dishes and he politely took our complaint about the soupe even apologized. Such behaviour is hardly found in any restaurant in trivandrum. He is really well informed about any dish they offer which makes it easy for us to order. Hats off to you man and thank you so much. Then its the FOOD right.... Well im not that impressed with the food we had some were really good while some are really disapointing. Ordered, soupes, beef dragon fry, pomme de chicken, thai creamy prawns, oyester butter beef, nool porotta, naan, appam, mutton kurumulaku roast, broasted chicken combo, chicken popcorn, chicken fried rice, kit kat shake, smokey brownie and brownie with ice cream. The hot and sour soupe was really bland and sweet even pepper couldnt help balance the sweetness. Manchow was really disapointing as they used soaked noodles instead of fried noodles. Pomme de chicken was really tasty and the presentation was nice. They screwed the dragon beef by making it like a curry instead of dry. Thai creamy prawns and chicken curry was the star dishes of the day. Really big flavourful prawns in thick creamy balanced gravy was a bliss. Chicken curry was really tasty and went well with appam and nool porotta. Even appam and nool porotta was really good. The oyester beef was too salty, mutton was rubber. The desert were actually good. The brownie deserve a special place and was delectable. I really really loved it. When asked i came to know its their in house brownie made by the owners wife it seems. I really felt like it was bought from some home baker as it was the best i ever had in trivandrum. Shake was nice too. Please be more selective in purchasing the meat especially mutton and beef. The quality of meat affects the dishes you serve. If you ask me whether ill visit again Ofcourse yes... The ambiance and hospitality with your snacking options is enough to attract people. Improve your food and it will be an absolute...

The place is not small as we look from entrance of the place, very well planned interiors, with Superb illuminated lights, aquariums, interior plants, paintings, very spacious rooms and individual huts, cleanliness, spacious parking facilities and more importantly polite and well mannered staffs. A very good hangout place with friends/family, Everything around you sit for dining amazes you except the food. The breads served was crisp and tasty, but the add on curries was terrible. You order rabbit or mutton or duck, everything had the same taste with the same ingredients and a bit more salty. As i know, if restaurants fill curry with more salt/pepper, then meat will be older than you think. But since the meat was well cooked, couldn't tell if it was old or not(hopefully to be not). You don't feel the difference between mutton or duck or rabbit pieces as if they were cooked separately and added to the the same sauced dry gravy.

We ordered: Mutton chapse Mutton onion fry Muyal perate Tharavu kochulli roast Chappathi Wheat porotta Vesso porotta Porotta Butter nan Strawberry shake Lemon tea Tea

Veeso porotta was more crisper, made it think like Butter Nan, untill we identified Nan was on a different plate..this is just a joke and is not related to the review, both butter nan and vesso was tastier. Dishes were less spicy but the color note was high, quantity of the pieces was less, seemed like it was restricted to only two people which was a normal thing as every other restaurants in town. Overall experience was so good except the food. We have given our feedback to them, hoping next time there would be a change in the taste (atleast to identify which is which). With the last thing to try was mint lemon tea 🍵, in which it felt like lemon did not exist but was there in the bill. I can't give you 5 🌟 or a 4 🌟 rating because we came there for food. I cannot give you less than 3 stars ✨ because everything was nice over there except the curry. If you would make delicious dishes when we come over there next time, i would definitely...
