What to Avoid (2)

Food 1

Full beef fry Net −1

“I ordered 2 full beef fry, but what I received was nowhere close to that. The quantity was shockingly low—barely equal to one portion, not two.”

Drinks 1

Kerala nadan tea Net −1

“I used to really like Aaramam, especially for their famous Kerala nadan tea. Unfortunately, the quality has dropped a lot. The tea they serve now doesn’t taste like real nadan tea anymore, and the food has become very poor in quality, completely tasteless, and the quantity is also very less.”

The Bottom Line

Aaraamam is a Kerala and South Indian restaurant in Al Raffa where the most useful starting points are appam with chicken stew, porotta with beef fry, chicken varutharachathu and poha beef biriyani. Breakfast receives especially vivid praise: one reviewer compared the chicken stew with coconut, clove and pepper to a typical Travancore kuruma. The tea and Kerala-style snacks give the place an easy, casual appeal.

The setting is described as calm, clean and family-friendly, with wooden chairs and a relaxed atmosphere. Reviews also mention evening chilly baji, vada and chamanthi, plus Onam saadya with good packing and generous quantities. Service is often described as warm and attentive, and one delivery arrived warm in clean packaging.

There is a clear value caveat. Several customers complained that beef portions were unusually small for the price, including reports of AED 23 for one beef portion and 37 AED for special beef curry. Food quality also appears inconsistent: some delivery and breakfast visits disappointed, while others found the food fresh, homemade and full of flavour.

For a first visit, ordering Kerala dishes in the restaurant may be the safer way to explore the menu; check portions and prices carefully when ordering delivery.
