Tips for a Better Visit

Showing 2 of 5

Try porotta. Start with the flaky porotta, especially if you want to pair it with beef fry or roast.

Go mornings. Breakfast is a well-established favourite; mornings may also be less crowded than other branches.

The Bottom Line

Aaraamam Restaurant is a Kerala-focused Indian restaurant in Oud Metha, with the kind of menu that draws people back for breakfast, lunch and evening snacks. The clearest starting points are the flaky porotta, beef fry, appam and Kerala meals; regulars also mention biryani and Samavar Chai. The food is often described as homely, fresh and close to the flavours of Kerala rather than heavily oily or spicy.

Porotta is one of the safest orders: a reviewer specifically praised its well-defined layers, while others pair it with beef roast or beef fry. Breakfast is another strong reason to come, with porotta, egg roast and tea repeatedly mentioned as economical choices. A reported 10/- motta set south Indian kerala meals also points to the restaurant’s value-focused side, though it should not be treated as a current price list.

Service is often called friendly, attentive and fast, and some diners find the Oud Metha branch less crowded than other locations. The practical picture is mixed, however. Recent reviews mention broken air conditioning in summer, a damaged roof and cleanliness concerns.

Food consistency has also been questioned, including an unfresh fish order and a salty mutton biryani with sharp bones. Check takeaway quantities and the bill before leaving, and plan for difficult parking during busy lunch hours.
