Salt Mango Tree Seafood Restaurant — Restaurant in Kerala

The reviews are subjective. You might have a different experience. So I would say try it out before you make a decision. I gave 5 stars not because they are the best. Read on.

The Good: A bunch of amateurs trying to run a restaurant..LOL. I had the fish combo meals. It came with rice, 2 sides(thoran,etc.), a pickle and pappadam, a fish curry, and anchovies fried. Pleasantly surprised by the "puzha meen" curry. The "chaar" options were fish gravy, chicken rasam and sambar....all served on a banana leaf. What I liked was the quantity of rice served...not too much to get bloated! Just enough for me. I am not sure if they served more rice if you asked. But I didn't see anyone get a second serve. I loved them bring everything pre-served on a banana leaf upon a tray. The Bad: A bunch of amateurs trying to run a restaurant. I would've loved to see more vegetables served. Whatever the vegetable portion on the leaf was barely a snuff. Maybe they would've served more but was not asked. The "chaar" vessel kept hoping around different tables playing "Catch me if you can" 😉. As I was about to leave a friendly staff apologized about the lacking, and said they were overwhelmed by the amount of people coming in, as they had just recently started, caught them by surprise! There was no menu offered...I had to check online. The Ugly: A bunch of......yeah! NO TOILET!!! EEKS. There was no paper napkins at the wash station either. Had to ask them ...found it at the payment counter. Conclusion: There is a lot of room for improvement. But I think younger crowd would love this place. I really wonder how their biriyani tastes!! Will try if I get a chance next...

Location is bit inside from town. Loved there interior. Very artistic and colorful. Tried the meals and fishes. Fish was so fresh and if u love crunchy mathi fry do try it. Very budget friendly. They had every spcl items below 120 as I remember. Really wanted to try the prawns and crab Bt was not available at that moment. Service was also good. They have a cloud kitchen near to the dining also. Side dishes of meals were all good. Sambar felt a little off though. There palada payasam was also delicious it cost around 35rs. Must try. Not over powering sweetness. Sure going to...

As a vegetarian, my dining options were limited, so I opted for the noon meals at this restaurant. The experience was okay, not exceptional, but it did the job at a reasonable price. It provided a filling and satisfactory meal, but I've had better vegetarian meals elsewhere. One thing to note is that finding this restaurant can be a bit challenging as it's located a bit inside the road. It might not be immediately visible from the main street, so keep an eye out for signs...
