Authentic Indian food since 2009. Inspired by the light coastal flavours of Kerala, our first class Indian chefs use only the best ingredients from the region including creamy coconut milk, fresh curry leaves and aromatic spices to create curries, biriyanis, baked-to-order naans and grills straight from the tandoor. Big hits with regulars include our Kerala Coconut Chicken, Lamb Chettinad and Prawn Moilee. Don’t forget about our carefully sourced wines and beers, including Kinnegar IPA, made in Donegal.

⭐ 0/5 – Worst Indian food experience in Dublin
This was honestly one of the worst Indian food experiences I’ve had, and it’s shocking that this place has Kerala in its name because there was absolutely nothing Kerala—or even Indian—about the food.
We ordered Andhra Chicken Curry with naan, and it was terrible. The curry had shredded, fried chicken thrown into plain tomato gravy with almost no spices. It tasted like pre-cooked chicken mixed into a store-bought sauce. No depth, no heat, no flavour—nothing remotely close to Andhra cuisine.
We also ordered Ambur Chicken Biryani, which was another huge disappointment. The chicken was barely marinated, the rice had no aroma, and it didn’t feel like biryani at all. Forget Ambur-style—this wasn’t even basic biryani.
On top of that, we specifically requested raita with the biryani. Raita should contain onions and green chilies, but what we received was plain yogurt with salt—no vegetables, no flavour, no effort.
We paid €50 for this meal, and instead of enjoying our day, it was completely spoiled by the food quality and disappointment. For a restaurant charging these prices and claiming regional Indian authenticity, this is unacceptable.
I will never recommend Kerala Kitchen to anyone. Please avoid this place if you’re looking for authentic or even decent Indian food.

Pros:
Nice staff + Smooth interior lighting + Tandoori Chicken was delicious + Lamb Biryani was very good
Cons:
Rita is expensive in that size

Had a great meal at Kerala Kitchen in Dublin—easily the best Indian food I’ve ever had. The atmosphere was warm and the service was excellent. Big thanks to my friend Josh for the treat!

One of the worst Indian food experiences I’ve had in Ireland.
I visited Kerala Kitchen expecting authentic Kerala or at least decent Indian cuisine. What I got instead was extremely disappointing.
The food lacked basic flavour, freshness, and balance. Curries tasted bland and poorly seasoned, spices felt random rather than authentic, and the overall quality was closer to reheated cafeteria food than a restaurant charging these prices. Portions were unimpressive, presentation was careless, and nothing on the plate reflected Kerala cuisine or even standard Indian cooking.
For a restaurant using the word “Kitchen” and representing Indian food, this is frankly misleading. Anyone familiar with real Indian or South Indian cooking will immediately notice the gap in quality.
This place seriously needs to rethink its recipes, ingredients, and cooking standards. Until then, I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone looking for authentic or even passable Indian food in Ireland.
The price is expensive and I personally felt like being scammed for the money spent

We tried Kerala Kitchen on Baggot Street for the first time last night, we were long time regulars at their Stoneybatter location so we had high hopes. We opted to get an order to go, & to our disappointment when we got home (6 minutes later) the order was cold (packaging unsuitable for takeaway) & we were given vegan items (which looked & smelled like they’d been prepared hours before) instead of the chicken dishes we wanted to try. The entire order was wet, condensation inside the poor packaging turned salad items slimey which coated everything with an unpleasant funk. It was awful. The Biryani’s rice was tasteless, the sauce overly sweet & poorly balanced, it contained just 2 & 1/2 pieces of gristley brown “chicken” & the portion size for €16 was straight up mean, the tikka was also obviously made with low quality chicken off cuts, lacked flavour & the salad slime’s odour made everything so much worse. The garlic naan was burnt, flavourless & simultaneously wet from condensation & dry to taste – an unusual combination. We didn’t try the potato/cumin abominations, they straight up stunk.
Needless to say, dinner was binned, & we resorted to cooking a Tesco finest pizza I had stashed in the freezer.
The fact Wormy looking carrot peices will haunt me & the smell of those potatoes (see picture) lingered in the compost bin overnight filling our utility with a disturbing stench it’s safe to say we won’t be eating or recommending Kerala Kitchen’s once wonderful food again.
We did contact the store but we received no reply. I don’t think they’re concerned about customer service, which is a red flag in itself.
Avoid this place folks, it’s horrendous, there are far better Indian restaurants in D4.

Awesome experience at this quaint eatery that sounds South Indian but has a good mixture of North/South Indian cuisine. Tried the Lamb chettinaad which was made with perfect spices. Saag paneer was rich and creamy but it was missing a bit of salt. Overall it’s a great place to try variety of Indian food

We dined in Kerala Kitchen years ago on a trip to Dublin and we’ve been talking about it ever since. Happily in May 2025 we returned to Dublin and were so pleased that our dinner in Kerala Kitchen was as good, if not better, than we remembered. 2 starters (gunpowder aloo chaat, chicken 65) were delicious. The chaat especially was so tasty….a mixture of fried potatoes, chickpeas, pomegranate in a aromatic dressing. The chicken 65 was spicier but very tasty. Our mains were some of the best authentic Indian cuisine we’ve had in Europe and definitely the best in Ireland. The special of Murgh Palak was devine. Although the colour was vibrant to an extreme, it was perfectly balanced with spice, sweet (not bitter despite a lot of spinach and spice). My partner had the chicken Andhra which was a delicate burst of flavours and it would please any palate. One basmati rice was too much for us and we also has 2 garlic naan. A lot of food! Our one regret was we couldn’t finish it Our server and reception staff were extremely friendly. A triumph of a dining experience. We can’t wait to come back

This place has nothing to do with authentic Kerala cuisine. No traditional dishes, and shockingly no beef options, despite beef being a major part of Kerala food culture. Keralites eat beef — that’s a fact, not an opinion.
I ordered Chicken Biryani. It was one of the worst I’ve had: poorly cooked rice, zero flavor balance, and felt like a rushed, low-quality dish. Straight-up awful.
The bigger issue: the restaurant is owned by North Indians using a South Indian/Kerala name to attract customers. It feels like a deliberate branding scam — selling generic North Indian food under a fake Kerala identity.

Had a flavourful dinner here. Most items were well prepared with the right balance of spices. We requested a slight tweak to one of the ordered item and it was considered by the Chef. Booked a table over phone and they were quite flexible with the timings. The place could be slightly cramped if full. Overall service was good.
The only thing that I couldn’t digest was naming it Ambur Biryani while it was no way close to reality. As someone who has relished authentic Ambur, Arcot Biriyani since very long found it unacceptable, they could have simply named it Biriyani.

I contacted Kerala Kitchen in Baggot St in order to place a group order for our office to celebrate Diwali. From the first email to delivery, Simrat looked after us so well! Great communication and excellent customer service. The food was incredibly tasty, arrived at the agreed time, packed so carefully with all our names on it – everything was perfect! Thank you to you Simrat and all the team at Kerala!
