I have eaten momos in Delhi and Darjeeling. The karimeen one here is something else entirely — coconut and curry leaf inside a dumpling sounds wrong until you taste it. Genuinely the best momo shop in Kerala for me.
What Kerala says
Unedited reviews from the people who queue, order in and come back. If something went wrong, we would rather publish it than hide it.
Came for the crunch, stayed for the fire chutney. I now order it by the bottle. Place is tiny, so reach before 7 or be prepared to wait — worth it.
Ordered through Swiggy twice in one week. Arrived hot, steamer-fresh, packaging is genuinely lovely. The malai momos are dangerously soft.
The beef momo is the real Malabar deal — slow-cooked, peppery, with that coconut finish. Tandoori version is my second order every single time.
Took my parents here on a rainy evening. The thukpa is comfort in a bowl, and they let us sit by the open kitchen watching them fold. Felt like family.
Smoky, charred, properly spiced. Only gripe: they run out of the karimeen momos by 9pm, so go early. The tandoori plate is a solid backup.
