The place was incredibly crowded, and we had to wait for about 15-20 minutes. To keep us occupied, they had big screens playing movies and music.
The food had decent flavors and tasted more like homemade dishes than restaurant-style. The Chicken 65 masala was quite subtle and could have been better. Egg podimas was missing salt. The Chicken kothu, Curry Dosa, and Biryani were all delicious with the accompanying salna. The Rosemilk was also quite tasty.
The service was excellent. They took our feedback and I hope they address it. Unfortunately, some of the items on the menu are still unavailable and little pricey for the quantity served.

Finally a nice South Indian restaurant in Bothell! We tried the Salt & Pepper Baby Corn as an appetizer — really tasty and well-seasoned (slightly on the dry side, but still good). The Podi Masala Dosa was absolutely on point — crispy, flavorful, and perfectly made. Gulab jamun were decent too. Overall a great experience and I’m happy to have a solid South Indian spot nearby. Will definitely be back!

Place is nice bright and huge. Tried quite a few dishes and liked a few – attukal soup, chicken pallipalayam, paneer 65, veg kothu paratha, masala omelette, rose milk and kovai spl mutton biryani were delicious. Salt and pepper babycorn was oily and poori was plain bad. Rasmalai had the same taste as the one you find in costco. Service was decent although one of them was a bit in a confused state.

Tried Junior Kuppanna and really liked the authentic Tamil flavors. The Madurai chicken curry tasted true to style, and the Kovai special chicken biryani felt closer to traditional Tamil biryani. Spice level was mild and well balanced. Portions are decent but a bit pricey for the quantity (similar to Royal Biryani House). Quick service, casual family vibe. Receiving/front desk could be better. Would return for the biryani and parotta.

We were served by a gentleman named Ram. He was very kind, patient and polite, and gave us fair heads-up on wait times on the food. He was also very prompt and responsive to any of our requests. Genuinely loved his service!
Talking about the food, it was absolutely amazing and scrumptious! Not a single subpar item on the special non veg thali! Every single meat dish whether it was the chicken, mutton, fish or eggs were absolutely delicious! Would love to have it again too!

Junior Kuppanna Bothell is a welcome and exciting new addition to the Seattle–Bothell food scene. I have been to their branches in India many times, so I was genuinely happy to see them open here.
The food overall was good and captured the authentic Kongunadu flavors I was hoping for. Most dishes met expectations, though the parotta was a big letdown and they readily accepted to improve.
Service was fast, attentive, and pleasant, and the atmosphere is excellent—modern, comfortable, and perfect for a relaxed meal. It’s a great place to enjoy traditional Kongunadu food with a beer, especially with friends or family.
I’ll definitely be back and hope they improve and maintain the food quality to match the rest of the experience.Mutton Kola and Kothu Parotta are must try.

There are few desi restaurants that relentlessly focus on a niche of Indian cuisine. This one does – Kongu Tamil food. We had the mutton dishes, chukka, mutton fry, Kovai mutton biriyani. Each dish was perfection, the biriyani was so flavorful, lots of tender mutton pieces.
This place tops our list of Indian non-veg restaurants in the Seattle area, along with Madhurai Mess which is also a fave of mine.
Compliments to our waiter Ram, who attended to us well, brought out raw onions for me, made sure water was filled.
Will be back (a lot!!).

From the mushroom biryani to the special Kovai biryani, everything tastes truly authentic with rich Tamil flavors. The spice level is perfectly balanced — flavorful without being overwhelming. The filter coffee is also really good and feels like a comforting finish to the meal. If you’re craving proper Tamil-style food with homely taste and aroma, this place is definitely worth a visit.

We were really excited to try this place because of its unique South Indian cuisine and came with our entire family, including our two toddlers (1 and 2 years old).
The food and ambience were decent. The appams with coconut milk, idiyappam, chicken biryani, and fish were all good and met our expectations. However, the mutton chukka was extremely chewy and disappointing.
The real issue was the service. We ordered food for our baby, which arrived quite late. By the time it came, our daughter had already gotten up, and we were in the middle of having dessert. She had just started eating from the to-go box when, suddenly, we were rudely asked to leave because there was a wait.
There was no empathy, no polite request—just a disrespectful and rude approach from the manager. We were forced to leave midway, and our daughter barely got two bites of her food.
This is not how you treat a family with young children. What started as a decent and enjoyable experience was completely ruined by poor customer service. We left feeling embarrassed and upset.
We will not be returning, and unfortunately, we won’t be recommending this place to our friends either. Customer experience matters, and this was truly disappointing.

Overall, the vibe here is good, though the LED lighting inside is a bit too bright and could use some adjustment.
As for the food, it was a mixed bag. The Mutton Sukka was yum and the Mutton Biryani was great, definitely the highlights of the meal. The Ghee Dosa was decent but nothing extraordinary, and the Natu Kozhi starter was just okay.
The biggest disappointment was the main course combo of Veg Chettinad and Kovai Chicken with parottas. The parottas were thick and heavy (we were expecting something lighter like Malabar style), which didn’t pair well with the curries. I’ll definitely come back for the biryani, but I’ll be skipping the parottas next time.
