My family of four had breakfast at Rice Boat, a pure vegetarian restaurant in Alappuzha, on August 13th and 14th. The restaurant’s ambiance is a delightful blend of traditional and contemporary styles, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The interior is clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully decorated, making it a pleasant place to enjoy a meal.
For breakfast, we ordered masala dosa, ghee roast, poori masala, and puttu. The use of fresh, local ingredients was evident in the taste, with flavors that were rich and satisfying. The service at Rice Boat was exceptional—the staff were friendly, attentive, and very quick in serving the food. Their promptness and warm hospitality added to the overall positive experience.
Rice Boat offers excellent value for money, with reasonable prices that reflect the quality of both the food and the overall dining experience. It’s an ideal choice for both locals and tourists seeking authentic vegetarian Kerala cuisine without stretching their budget.
The combination of great food, a welcoming ambiance, and outstanding service makes Rice Boat a standout restaurant...
Read moreOur experience at Rice Boat Restaurant was absolutely delightful! The food was not only delicious but also fresh and hygienic, which made us feel confident about every meal. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, and the restaurant itself was clean and well-maintained.
We loved the food so much that we ended up visiting five times during our stay! The Kerala Thali was a standout, offering a perfect blend of authentic flavors. We also enjoyed the biryani and parathas, which were consistently flavorful and well-prepared.
A special shout-out to Teyson, who went above and beyond to make us feel welcome every time we visited. His detailed explanations of the menu items and recommendations truly enhanced our dining experience.

Read moreThere is decent amount of parking available both in the front and in the basement, and the security guard was helpful in guiding us to a spot. We had Kerala meals and it had very less salt, spice and tanginess — it was completely bland. The North Indian thali is basically the same Kerala meals (with matta rice), just with papadam replaced by roti. We ordered it without knowing this and regretted it. -They do offer multiple servings for meals, but the initial portion of the curries comes in a very small bowl. You have to repeatedly call them to refill it — they don’t proactively offer it or check with you which I feel can be improved. -The atmosphere is good and the place is neat and clean. Washrooms are great as well. -It’s also better to call them once before visiting, because sometimes they take bulk orders and won’t serve regular walk-in customers. We experienced this last time— they didn’t even allow us inside the...
