Kayal restaurant has truly left an indelible mark on my taste buds with their exceptional cuisine and impeccable service. I recently had the pleasure of dining at this seafood haven, and I can confidently say that it was an experience worth cherishing.

As a seafood enthusiast, I couldn't resist ordering the Seafood Platter to kick off my culinary adventure. The platter was a true delight for the senses, featuring a mouthwatering assortment of perfectly cooked prawns, succulent fish, and delectable calamari. Each bite was an explosion of flavors, complemented by a medley of spices that highlighted the freshness of the ingredients.

For starters, I opted for the Poth Ularthiyath, and it turned out to be an excellent choice. The dish was a burst of aromatic spices, blending harmoniously with the succulent pieces of meat. The flavors were rich and well-balanced, leaving me craving for more.

Moving on to the main course, I decided to try both the Chicken Biryani and the Seafood Biryani. The Chicken Biryani was a testament to the culinary expertise of the chefs at Kayal. The fragrant basmati rice was perfectly cooked and layered with tender pieces of chicken, infused with a symphony of spices. Every spoonful was a tantalizing revelation.

The Seafood Biryani, on the other hand, was an absolute masterpiece. The combination of aromatic rice and an assortment of seafood, including prawns, fish, and mussels, created a symphony of flavors that transported me to coastal paradise. Each bite was a celebration of the ocean's bounty, leaving me in awe of the culinary mastery that went into its creation.

While the food at Kayal was undoubtedly exceptional, it was the outstanding service that truly elevated my dining experience. Vishwa, our waiter, deserves special recognition for his attentiveness and friendliness. He went above and beyond to ensure that we were well taken care of throughout the evening, offering suggestions and ensuring that every detail of our meal was perfect. His warmth and genuine care added an extra layer of hospitality that made us feel like honored guests.

In conclusion, Kayal is a haven for seafood lovers, offering an extraordinary dining experience that surpasses expectations. From the Seafood Platter to the delectable Poth Ularthiyath, and the Chicken and Seafood Biryani, every dish showcased the culinary artistry and passion of the chefs. The service, particularly Vishwa's exceptional care, left an indelible impression on us. I wholeheartedly recommend Kayal to anyone seeking a memorable and delightful...

I recently had the pleasure of dining at the exquisite restaurant, Kayal Restaurant, and it was truly an unforgettable experience.

From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm hospitality and impeccable service. Our waiter was knowledgeable about the menu and provided excellent recommendations for both food and Soft drinks.

As for the food itself, every dish was a masterpiece. The ingredients were fresh and expertly prepared, and the flavours were nothing short of extraordinary. The highlight of the "Kayal fish curry" for us was the perfectly cooked, which was tasty and bursting with flavour. I'm very thankful to the Chef who cooked this amazing meal for us,

The restaurant's ambiance was also delightful, with a charming outdoor garden setting that added to the overall romantic atmosphere.

I must say that the service provided by our waiter, who was named Patric Reji, was absolutely outstanding. From the moment we were seated, Patric was attentive and friendly, making us feel welcome and comfortable. He took the time to explain the menu and answer my questions, and he even made some excellent recommendations that we would not have considered otherwise., especially Paper Masala Dosa.

Overall, I would highly recommend Kayal Restaurant to anyone looking for a delightful dining experience. And if you're lucky enough to be served by Patric, you can rest assured that you're in for a truly exceptional experience. He is a true asset to the restaurant and a testament to the high standards of service that...

I recently had the pleasure of dining at your establishment and I wanted to personally reach out and express my gratitude for the incredible experience.

The food was absolutely amazing - every dish we tried was expertly prepared, and the flavors were truly outstanding. It was clear that the ingredients were fresh and of the highest quality, and the presentation of each dish was impeccable.

But what really set the experience apart was the exceptional service. Our waiter named Patric Reji was attentive, and friendly, and went out of his way to ensure that we had a truly memorable experience. He was knowledgeable about the menu and provided excellent recommendations, and he even took the time to engage us in conversation and make us feel welcome. As soon as I arrived, I was struck by the striking and innovative design of the restaurant. The bullet is truly a unique feature that sets this restaurant apart from any other I've seen. The interior is equally impressive, with sleek and southern decor that complements the bullet theme perfectly.

Overall, I had an amazing experience at your restaurant and I wanted to thank you for all that you do to create such a wonderful dining experience. I will definitely be recommending your establishment to all of my friends and family, and I look forward to returning soon. the service provided by the restaurant manager definitely contributed to a wonderful dining experience. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for exceptional food...

Kayal Restaurant in Leicester is renowned for its authentic South Indian cuisine, particularly its specialties from the coastal regions of Kerala. Here are some key highlights of the restaurant: Cuisine: Kayal is celebrated for its traditional South Indian dishes, including dosas, idlis, seafood, and various vegetarian options. The menu features a wide range of dishes that highlight the unique flavors and spices of Kerala. Atmosphere: The restaurant's decor reflects the coastal theme of Kerala, creating a warm and inviting ambiance. The setting is designed to offer a comfortable and culturally immersive dining experience. A few things that need improvement or suggested changes . Please replace Chilli Paneer ( it was a tad too sweet - definitely not indo Chinese as suggested by the steward - a pretty sad preparation of what seemed like North Indian flavours in a shoddily prepared dish ) with an authentic Paneer 65 . The Papaddam platter was pretty sad - definitely not freshly fried - smell of reused oil. The South Indian Vadas also had a smell of used oil . The preparation of the cocktails needs improvement largely - though the choices on the menu are lovely but not the preparation. The wow factor was majorly in the starter grilled fish, the appams and the vegetable stew

There is an edgy vibe to Leicester high street that is an unfortunate result of the system that governs our fine cities. Enough of the politics. All it means is, be careful of leaving bikes unlocked outside, was the advice the staff member at Kayal gave. Kayal is an establishment in Leicester. It is decorated in both awards and ornaments. It is beautiful inside. Take a look upstairs and behold the high ceilings and paintings. The upstairs terrace garden has been decked out too. An awesome social space to drink and enjoy the sunshine. I’m new to South Indian food. Kayal creates dishes that excite the taste buds. They are simple, informed the mesero , get this ingredient, dip in batter and fry. He was being far too modest. For me, a North Indian cuisine expert, I.e., a brummie loved the coconuty notes. The food is made to a high quality, the quality of service just needs to be ironed out to bring it up some of the best Indian restaurants. An enjoyable experience, a mirror of Herb in many respects. Before you ask, yes, my bike is still in my possession.

Food Quality: The dishes served at Kayal were quite okay, offering a decent taste experience. However, the flavors did not fully meet the authentic standards of Kerala cuisine, which might be a letdown for those seeking a genuine taste of South India. Price: The pricing at Kayal leans towards the expensive side. While the quality of food is satisfactory, the cost may not align with the value expected by patrons, especially when authenticity is taken into account. Ambience: The restaurant’s ambience is very good, providing a comfortable and inviting atmosphere. It’s a pleasant space to dine in, which enhances the overall experience despite the other shortcomings. In summary, Kayal Restaurant offers a fair dining experience with a lovely setting, but it may not fully satisfy those in search of true Kerala culinary delights, and the prices are on the higher end.
