It's Malabar restaurant

Ambience is alright. Food is not worth for money. And the customer service is worst in the industry. Never recommended.

Calm ambience with tasty food, The kallappam with kingfish curry.and fresh tea.its amazing

I love the food and taste. And staf are very good. I totally like it. It’s near to my office and almost I am having lunch there or some time ordering. If some one want to enjoy indian Kerla food then this is the right place for the best food

Liked very much
Great
Quick response and valuable
Tried parota and pepper mutton.
Authentic Kerala style.
Recommended

The food tasted really good especially the fish and biriyani, but the evening snacks are a big no, the banana fry was hard as a rock

This place was introduced by a close friend and we are in love with this place for kerala dishes. Thali is good.

One of the best restaurant in that area, My favourite place, Highly recommend to Have "Appam" with any of the Curry. Another nice one of the dish is "Hammoor fillet"

Awesome foods especially sea foods. If you want to taste kerala malabar foods then this is one of the place you can try. Supportive staffs, Nice interior and you can go with your family. Restroom are Available.

I will give a 5-star rating to this restaurant with any second thought.because Malabar Restaurant is the best restaurant in whole line,

if you want to eat good food in a reasonable price then this is the right place for you.you can try hotpot paneer with Garlick naan.it is amazing

Apart from this, they have free welcoming drinks as well.whenever I have time I prefer to go there and make my evening Good.

Always a hit, never a miss!
Thanks for the wonderful food you serve?

Please avoid the seating area with the hanging lamp as it tends to get really hot to sit with all the yummy spicy food

One of the best Kerela cuisines in Dubai. In my honest opinion it competes in terms of flavor with some of the biggest 5 star hotel restos in the city.
The hygiene was high, food flavors were unbelievable, generous and attentive staff.seriously one hidden gem in Dubai. Must try.
Our favourites were the prawn masala and the paneer.

Ambiance is good, delicious dishes with
Friendly staffs, best for family and who loves to eat seafood varieties and real Kerala cuisine

The best place for authentic south indian dishes. Specially their signature dishes like arrow prawns, fish mango curry, beef fry are highly recommended

Favourite go to place. But last time wasnt great. The squid wasnt cleaned appropriately. And hygiene issues as well. Rest all food amazing as usual.

This is a traditional South Indian restaurant, recently opened in Al Nahda Qusais. It's almost very near to NMC hospital and easy to reach. There is enough RTA parking lots all around. The restaurant has opened recently, hence the interior is very intact, washroom is clean and tidy, the privacy is very good in this place. We have ordered Munnar chicken curry, Appam, Parotta, Chicken
kanthari tawa, chicken 65 etc. All food items were good and got great taste, but a bit pricey than many other places. Staffs were very helpful and attentive.

Superb food, service and extraordinary cuisine at a very modest price. American size portions. 5star. Access and parking easy. Washrooms clean. All very nice.
Waiters know the menu and guide you well

Did the place shut down? One of the best or if not the best Kerala Restaurants in the area. Their Munnar Chicken Curry will never be forgotten. Hope they open up somewhere else. The place had a cult following of its own among Kerala Food lovers.

Nice place for malabar food. We ordered typical poratta wirh normal chicken curry made of coconut and mutton fry. Really delicious.
For me personally we look for good ambience while having food. At the restaurant the radio was played louder in speakers, the songs where good in the radio program, but the usual rj talks were quiet annoying for me. This is purely my personal opinion. I hope of you could play music alone will be much better.

The restaurant serves the best Kerala food I've eaten in the UAE. We ordered meals, ghee rice and nadan beef curry with tea and Pineapple juice. They've reasonably priced it as well. Would recommend the restaurant to anyone.

The best of Kerala cuisine and reasonably priced. The only thing better than that is their Chinese menu! Best egg fried rice I have eaten in a long time.

The worst i had in al nadha qusais sector. Not even a single dish I could say as excellent.

The hotel is in a good place and have enough space to accommodate the families. But the food is below average and their service is the worst. CAFETERIA TREATS CUSTOMERS BETTER THAN THIS. They never came and ask what you want.we have to call them each time (we were 10 families and we called them more than 10 times. Most of the time they were invisible other wise standing a corner cracking jokes by entertaining themselves.) We were the only customer at 7 pm on a friday in that hotel (to make you understand the customer preference of this hotel) even then we were unattended by the hotel service personnels.

The didn't offer us a welcome drink, forget it, at least a glass of water we waited 15 mnts to get the glass that also we reminded them. (they were too busy)

They didn't suggest any food which they could claim as their signature dish. Even when i asked, he told kantari chicken curry. (it is a normal chilli curry not kantari don't try to fool customers)

I got a feeling employees don't want to run this business for a long time. They were really spending time in the restaurants they don't really care about customers and service. I told this to the counter employee before i leave sorry for that.

Dishes could have been better! Nothing good in it all the meat have frozen taste.

Third time lucky, food was ok the first two times and the waiters were lost in their own world But not this time, went there after visiting a nearby hospital, as we did not have any better option nearby, we had mutton fry and nice pathiri and chai, and what a surprise, the food was awesome and a very lively and happy waiter, Satisfied.

It’s Delicious. It’s Malabar.
Awesome meal with as much taste.
Must try Chatty curry and Beef kizhi.

Quality food, perfectly cooked, delicious, wonderfully presented and served @ #itsmalabar restaurant. A must visit restaurant in dubai, AL Nahda 2.

Awesome taste you must try tandoori chicken super taste.mouth watering.suggested to many of my friends.thank u dear team of it's Malabar team.friendly environment.thank u so much

Ordered for a egg masala and porota. Was suprised and shocked to see the dish as it was peas masala with boiled egg.upon enquiry ELDO said this is their egg masala. I said ok but I don't want this, so ELDO said if you don't to eat you can take away the food. I said NO thank u. Absolutely no customer service finally I ended up paying for the food I did not touch at all.

Irrespective High price & waiting for a Luanch: - We had friday biryani with our 7 family members.we ordered 3x chicken biryani, 2x shrimps & 1 x Irachi chor & fish biriyani. We waited more than 40 minutes to get served on table as shrimps biriyani was al carte. Irachi chore was yummy.

Unexpectedly, We got a bill with of AED 35 for 1 shrimps biryani while AED 19 only for a fish biriyani. Would be fine if they would served with a enough shrimps (we got 8-9 pieces of frozen shrimps in a platter). What a discrepancy in a pricing. Please don't be greedy on pricing.if you are overcharging, Then given them special & extra not only a platter design change.

Good place for a gettgther with family or friends.their puttu n nadan beef curry combination is the best.we ordered appam and chicken curry, that was nice.
Other dishes we tried were mutton pepper roast, beef fry, which all were just ok.

This is located in the al nadha 2 area which is filled with asian cuisine serving restaurants. A place suggested to us for some authentic malabari food. There is a difference between malabar cuisine and food from other parts of Kerala, ppl from malabar knows it. I normally order biriyani to check how authentic the place is, however since it was a dinner I skipped the rice. Ordered appam which was great but not sweet enuf for me. Kerala porotta was not bad just okay not as crispy as some restaurants would serve. Tattu Dosa was bad we ordered it for kids and it wasn't tasting good, infact they missed the item from the initial order and kids had to wait for there food which made them restless. The welcome drink was excellent and more than happy to see fresh green salad as complimentary. We ordered Chicken peralan (semi gravy &spicy), beef fry (crispy & wow), Prawns mango curry (the best) and Munnar veg curry (good enuf). The tea was not something special, have tasted better ones before. Overall it gave me a satisfactory service and hence the 3 star.

It was good experience but not typically malabar taste, however there is nothing bad to say about my experience

Hi, I was a great fan of their pothichoru (which is only for take away). I used to recommend it to my friends and family too. Today, I was shocked to find their pothichoru was not up to the normal standard. We ordered two pothichoru, some curries were there in one but not in other. Even the quantity of curries were less. The most disappointing factor is their king fish fry. Even though they charge 10 Dhs for half a slice, I used to love it (delicious), so I ordered a full slice today which is 18 Dhs. What I received was a king fish (I believe) fried completely in a different recipe (it was like a fish fillet). This experience was disheartening and broke my expectations fully. Hope an action will be taken.

It was tasty, but for chicken nadan fry 40 dirhams too much. And full jar soda more than 8 dirhams not acceptable. Have to think twice to visit again. Can't recommend any body. Be cautious double check menu before ordering.
Thanks for teaching me to check the price before ordering anything.

Very sad and disappointed to review this restaurant. That name Its Malabar doesn't suit this Kerala cuisine restaurant. I have headed to this restaurant after hearing some good reviews about their food. First of all unattended waiters spoiled our night. They act like we are there for a treat or something. Never had such an experience from the leading Kerala chains of restaurants in Dubai.

Don't ask for any suggestion from them, they will misguide you to have more expensive menu set. We ordered kandhari hamour Tawa, Mango fish curry, thatti kootu dosa, thattu dosa and Porotta. After 5-10 minutes of waiting time somebody brought salad plate and just threw it on the table. Another one with welcome drink. Then came our dish tawa and curry whic was also left to our table without any side breads. We waited another 2-3 minutes to have the porotta and the dosa set.we were overwhelmed from the act of the waiters even though we managed t finish it within minutes and just want to escape.

Totally embarrassed when the bill came
I stuck for a second after knowing the price of the first item i.e Tawa. Aed 65/- for this small 4-5 pieces of fish. Ufffff.you wont imagine how they loot customers like this and how many must have trapped like this. Now i just read some reviews pointing out the same from some. You wont reveal easily from this bill for another 1-2 hours. Its not the matter of pricing, they wont deserve it for even Aed. 40/- They must go and experience Salakara, Thakkaram, Nellara etc they way they serve and how attentive even their waiters are. Its all against professional hospitality and looting customers.

Dear team, This wont repeat again in my life time even in my foodie circle too. All the very best!

I hail from MALABAR. And you must know MALABAR is not about food, They are know for their humanity and even hospitality. Both lacks and sucks

We had our Iftar part at this restaurant. Per head they charged AED: 40 and they served very low quality food items only.

Great place for authentic Malabar dishes. Good service. Affordable price list. Enough parking spaces.

A friend of mine took me there. It's quite crowded in the evenings so it must be good? I tried a mutton curry and two chicken curriies with wheat parotta. I found the curries a tad more spicier than my liking hence the three stars. I should have given the waiter a heads-up I guess since most people coming here end up ordering spicy. The tea was good as it just about right not too strong or too sweet.could have been a tad bit stronger for me say excellent. The wheat parotta was awesome. Parking is available but gotta look for it as it is a buay area.

Its the weekend, you are tired about the whole week and want to chill and kick back with your friends with talks, gossips and rumors about other while having the softest crispiest perotta with some naddan Keral beef.this is the place my friend!
