“ Leicester is a city with many Indian restaurants and a rich history of multi-cultural tradition. It is no small feat therefore, for Kayal (and it’s sister location herb) to be up there as one of the best restaurants in the city. The service is the perfect combination of capable and yet reserved. The food is good value and comes in really good portions (especially the business lunch) and the food tastes fantastic. I can’t recommend this restaurant enough and me and my friend get lunch here at least once a month. P.S. Motorcycles are badass! ”
“ Had a fantastic dining experience at Kayal! The food was absolutely delicious—full of authentic flavours and beautifully presented. What made the evening even more enjoyable was the excellent service we received. Tijo was attentive, friendly, and made us feel very welcome throughout the meal. He had great knowledge of the menu and helped us choose dishes we really enjoyed. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for genuine Indian cuisine with top-notch service. Will definitely be coming back! ”
“ I saw a lot of amazing reviews for Kayal and have never had food from Kerala. The service and food here was amazing and I can’t wait to go back. Everything tasted fresh and the atmosphere was pleasant. The Prawn Curry was really good and different from what I typically get at an Indian restaurant. ”
“ The food is amazing, I love the mixed seafood curry which goes exceptionally well with their appam. Mango lassi is also nice! The staffs there are very friendly and helpful - special thanks to Sree who recommended the food to me and share with me information of their different dishes. Would love to come again! ”
“ Food: The 3-course Sadya thali was absolutely perfect. The taste was spot-on, and the quantity was just right, making for a very satisfying meal. Service: 3 Stars – While the overall service was generally satisfactory, an unwarranted comment made behind back by a staff member or colleague (not a customer, as there were none present in the area) created a sense of discomfort. Atmosphere: The atmosphere was pleasant and good, contributing positively to the dining experience. ”
“ First time curry in Leicester. Kayal was a lovely, friendly restaurant and the food was fabulous. Served by Lobo, who helped me with the menu and choosing a Tilapia fish curry with lemon rice. It was beautifully presented and wrapped in a banana leaf (I think). Tasted awesome and I had a great pint of beer and a glass of wine. Can't wait to go back. I was on my own but there were lots of happy groups eating there. ”
