It was a normal Indian restaurant to me. Foods are okay not so bad also not really fantastic probably I tried manny Indian foods in other countries. Most of my Indian friends from work like this restaurant. We ordered lamb biryani & Coconut dosa for dinner.

September 18, 2024

Let’s just say I used to be a frequent customer, but now the quality of the food is not worth it. I stopped going there the last 3 months because the prices in this place kept soaring, but I decided to order from there thinking let’s give this place a try again even though I paid almost $90 for 2 biryanis and 1 butter chicken, again very expensive compared to its competitors. Guess what, I should not have, I found a whole plastic thread in my chicken (attached pictures). So not the just the price, and the food being undesirable, now it is even a safety hazard. Such a shame, this place used to be one of the best Indian restaurants in Kamloops.

Thought of enjoying the rain with some chai and pakora from coconut only to find the food package filled with red ants, ended up throwing everything. To make matters worse, the ants got in all over my car. It was absolutely disgusting and completely ruined my appetite and mood. What made the situation worse was how the manager handled it. Instead of taking the matter seriously, they simply refunded my money without any genuine apology or effort to make things right. It felt like they didn’t care at all about the awful experience I had. I understand that mistakes happen, but the lack of concern from the staff is unacceptable. I won’t be ordering from here again, and I certainly wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone. This is a question on the restaurant’s kitchen hygiene and sanitation!

Just came from Coconut. I went with a friend of mine. We found a small bone type object in the Chilli Chicken Dosa. It was almost stuck in her throat. Thank God she noticed it and didn’t got stuck. There was just one server and complained to her. She didn’t respond properly and was saying chicken has bone , so you should expect that. We said we came here so many times, we never found and it was always boneless chicken. So, how can we expect? Also the bone was small as shown in the picture and it was impossible to distinguish. It is very dangerous, something deadly could have happened to her. We will never forget this experience. We are not happy with the service. We will never come here . We also asked whether we can talk with the manager, the server response was manager doesn’t come and she never saw the manager during shift . I mean really? So no one there to complain or ask to help ? The staff doesn’t care about the customer.

Great place for South Indian cuisine. Their butter chicken dosa is a must try . Pretty solid gravy. The onion uttapam was fresh and wholesome and comes with fresh sambhar and chutneys . The filter coffee was hot and refreshing . Highly recommend this place in Kamloops!!

Amazing food! I wanted biryani and the server recommended the lamb and it was 11/10 flavourful perfection. I also enjoyed a house made chai. I’m thinking about when I get to go back again. Give this place a try!

All foods are fare but not all time! It's not an establishment I'd recommend for families or those with children, as the lack of attentive service and basic dining necessities like plates, water, and utensils is disappointing. Despite multiple visits, the experience has consistently been underwhelming, with each visit revealing no improvement in staff responsiveness or dining procedures. It's apparent that the restaurant is not equipped to cater to the needs of its patrons, and it seems to rely on the lack of alternatives in the area to maintain its customer base. This is particularly disheartening given the importance of a positive dining experience for families seeking enjoyment and quality time together Last night ordered food thry brought burned with over hearing and some areas not cooked well, so I returned but they brought back after Cleaned the black spots only which you can see in the picture how it's!

I recently dined at The Coconut and had a delightful experience. The restaurant offers a range of Indian dishes but i was attracted towards the South Indian dishes, and I must say, the food was absolutely delicious. We tried the vegetable noodles, Kerala porotta, Kerala pork roast, Malabar prawns curry, sweet lassi, badam milk, and rice with sambar. Every dish exceeded our expectations, leaving us craving for more. The ambiance of the restaurant was pleasant, and the place was impeccably clean. The service was exceptional, thanks to Lincy, who took great care of us throughout the meal. She made sure to accommodate my toddler's allergies, ensuring a safe and enjoyable dining experience for him. The highlight of our meal was the flaky and scrumptious porotta, as well as the flavorful pork roast. Both dishes left a lasting impression on our taste buds. The vegetable noodles we ordered for our toddler were also top-notch, meeting his preferences perfectly. To complement our meal, we indulged in the refreshing sweet lassi and the tasty badam milk, which were both delightful. Overall, I have no negative feedback to offer about The Coconut. The restaurant provided a simple and good dining experience, and we left satisfied, with plans to visit again in the future. I would like to extend a special mention to Lincy for her exceptional service. Her attentiveness and care added an extra touch to our dining experience.

I love this little place. I wish I could put it in my pocket and take it home. This is the best Indian food I have tasted. I have gone to other Indian restaurants in edmonton, on the island and other places. The spicing was wonderful and flavorful, the blending amazing. The textures were profound and things cooked just right. The portions were also very generous. My mouth was very happy. Our server was very polite and willing to help us in navigating what we wanted. I loved the home made dosa. The atmosphere was very quiet and comfortable. My husband and I both had a wonderful experience. I highly recommend this place

Ive eaten at many Indian restaurants in the past, but this is by far the worst establishment Ive been to. Food does not taste authentic. Very limited menu and no description of the dishes. Service was slow and samosas were greasy and deep fat fried. No taste whatsoever. My local Indian in the UK smashes this place out the water. If you want a nice Indian meal dont visit here.

I recently dined at The coconut restaurant , and it was an unforgettable experience. The ambiance was warm and inviting, perfect for a relaxing evening . We started with the samoosa and chicken 65, which was a delightful blend of flavors and textures. For the main course, we opted for the paratha and beef coconut pepper and it exceeded my expectations cooked to perfection and beautifully presented. The guy who serviced us was attentive without being intrusive, making us feel well taken care of throughout our meal and knowledgeable about the menu.We wrapped up with Ada Pradhaman a sweet finale that was simply divine. Overall, The coconut restaurant delivers exceptional food, great service, and a charming atmosphere. I highly recommend it for anyone looking to enjoy a memorable dining experience. Cant wait to return!

So it is Aug 28th. I am out with my partner to celebrate my 27 years clean/sober. I am a HUGE fan of Indian food and I WAS NOT DISSAPOINTED. We were told too try The Coconut as they were a tasty place. My Partner ordered Salmon Caferal and I ordered Lamb Vindaloo. I have a high spice/heat tolerance...I ordered my food Indian spice heat. OMG best damn vindaloo I had...some cucumber raita with it, and even more tasty. Then after dinner we ordered 2 deserts...we ordered. Ada Pradhaman and Gulab Jamun cheese cake...piece of advice too everyone.. .combine those.deserts.for an unbelievable explosion of flavor in your mouth. Definately coming back

I recently visited Coconut and was quite disappointed with the experience. The Masala Dosa was overly salty, and my order was incorrect. Despite the server double-checking the order with us, she did so at such a rapid pace that it was hard to understand. This occurred even after confirming the order three times. Moreover, the service left much to be desired. My appetizer was served after my main course, which is unacceptable. Overall, the staffs approach to resolving the issue was inadequate, leaving me very dissatisfied with the service.

I recently visited this gem of a restaurant and tried their signature dosa. It was a culinary masterpiece! The dosa was perfectly crisp, golden-brown, and served piping hot.

This place is a must-visit for any dosa enthusiast

Hi All, we got an opportunity to try out the food from THE COCONUT in Kamloops. the food didnt disappoint, in fact it was really good and we will surely go there again. Following are the items we bought and the review rated on a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being excellent: Starters/Appetizers: Puli Inji Wings - 10/10 absolutely a verity item worthy of trying Fish Pakora - 9/10 Vada - 7/10 Could be bit more crispier and browner Sambar - 9/10 Chutney - 8/10 Could be the coconut Main: Coconut Beef Curry - 10/10 Coconut Beef Pepper Fry - 10/10 the best we had in all of North America Beef Dhum Biriyani - 5/10 even though tasty it felt kind of wet due to the improper draining of water from the basmati rice after cooking Butter Roti - 9/10 Tandoori Roti - 10/10 Excellent - do not take home it will become soggy Rumali Roti - 7/10 we have had Rumali roti from lots of places the name itself suggest it has to be thin and soft but this was not but surely it tasted good Kappa - 9/10 really well made Fish Curry Hot - 9/10 Fish Curry Extremely Hot - 9/10 didnt find very much difference between the 2 other than the presence of couple of chilies in it. Mango Lassi - 8/10 Sweet Lassi - 8/10 Kit Kat Shake - 10/10 Excellent South Indian Coffee - 8/10 All in all we enjoyed it, the prices was roughly 10% more than what we find in Lower Mainland BC and that is not a big set back if you enjoy the food. The service was excellent and a big Thumps up to the team, please work on your Biriyani Rice process no need to change any ingredients but the rice has to be better - the rice itself is a very good quality one but the process of making it and draining it should be worked upon. Please also make the Rumali Roti thinner and bigger if possible, it surely is tasty. All the best and keep up the good work.

Then Wow for Puli Inji chicken wings, Wow for Cauliflower Manchurian and Wow for Coconut Pepper Fry Beef. An exceptional dining experience. We are already planning out trip back.

I lost almost 2.5 hrs on my way. Even I was ready to order , The girls who was there, didnt take the order , instead simply standing at the counter. After 45 mnts the order was placed and the next was the waiting time for the food. Low quality, over priced food came after 1 hr. The attitude towards customer was very bad.

December 22, 2023

First of all its not a South Indian restaurant. Dont get confused with menu. The service was very bad and long wait time to take the order and get the food. if they can say you have to wait 45 mnts to order your food , people cab look for better options. Secondly low quality and overpriced food.

If you re expecting typical South Indian.. this is not the right place! Don t be misled by online menu. Disappointing! Response to owner: Please do not pack Idly, sambar, and chutneys mixing together. They have to be paired separately with Idly and relished!

I would NEVER EVER step in this restaurant again. First the server took the order verbally without noting down on a paper that what is the customer s order or requirement. As of you are gonna remember everything verbally doing your job. Second our order came (which was late) and most importantly (WRONG ITEM), then the server told us oh sorry about that i ll get you the dish you ordered, by that time half of our food was cold. Third we asked for to change the plates as we had some snacks before, which the server changed with (DIRTY PLATES). I could easily see on the plates that it was not washed properly, stains of food dishes on it. I respect the food and never leave it unfinished, but on that day i left whole lot of food in my plate as it got cold and was tasteless after that. Later on we went to pay bill and the lady server told us oh we got busy all of a sudden that is why the service was late. We had to ASK for the DISCOUNT, for the messed up service and experience, there was no compensation gesture from servers for their fault. And the prices of the dishes they charge oh god bless, I don t wanna go to that part. I spent 70$ in this restaurant which was whole waste and not worth it. If you are gonna charge premium money for the food, then have the guts to serve food up to that mark. I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone ever in my life nor will go there ever.. Note: Do not waste your TIME AND MONEY. Rest is your choice Thank you Have a good business

The service was nice the atmosphere was really nice but to be honest as someone who has a brown boyfriend and have been eating Indian food since 4 years. The food here have probably been the worst tasting and I don t just mean non-authentic food but also food that was salted too much and had the taste was just straight up bad.

December 22, 2023

We visited this restaurant on our way back to Surrey from Calgary. The restaurant says it s South Indian. But the food did not taste at all like South Indian. We ordered chicken biryani, pork roast and parota. The chicken biryani and pork roast tasted horrible. We couldn t even finish it. Never tasted such bad biryani in a South Indian restaurant. We paid $20 for a biryani which was tasteless! Won t be visiting this place again.

Food is good but the service is bad. I read the reviews and everyone made the same complaint. To which, the restaurant replied, service maybe delayed but our chef wants to send out the best. When the restaurant is been appreciated for the food and when you have guests coming then what restricts you in hiring more staff? Be it chef or the server, hire them who can cater to the needs! I was there for a day. Wanted to return before it turned dark. I know the food should be served as ordered but sometimes special requests should be considered. It took more than 45 mins for the food to arrive on my table that too after reminding the server thrice. So the service as a whole is terribly slow which is bad. Now comes the food. Ordered Chicken Noodles which were good. Vada Sambhar was okayish but the chilli chicken dosa was ultimate. Value for money and tasty too. Very well made. But being a South Indian restaurant their chutney and sambhar was not upto the mark. Very bland and not tasty sadly. But my dosa was with a chinese touch hence I didnt need the accompaniment but otherwise it wasnt as it should be. Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian options like Idly, Medu Vada etc.

This review is long overdue. Last summer my husband and I were driving back from Banff to Seattle and spent a night in Kamloops. We were so excited to find a good dining option close by our hotel. My husband is a strict pescatarian and I can eat anything and this restaurant hit the spot. I ordered their butter chicken and my husband had their fish curry. Both dishes were so tasty and delicious! The fish was cooked perfectly and my butter chicken was tender and juicy. Their naan was perfect as well! The service was excellent as the host and waiter were very attentive to us during our meal. I highly recommend coming by and checking them out if you re ever in Kamloops. :)

I recently stopped here during a transit and tried the Bombay dosa. Unfortunately, I was quite disappointed with the experience. The dosa didnt taste fresh, the red chutney was also not up to par, and the presentation was messy. I understand its not a 7-star restaurant, but I expected better. The dosa was even served cracked and in pieces, which was disappointing.1 Bonus Star for just customer service.

Customers for this restaurant, on numerous occasions, have parked in the 10 minute loading zone in front of the Bedford Seniors Houseing. Because of this, seniors are forced to load down the street away from the entrance. This situation will be monitored and a tow vehicle will be called in the future.

I recently dined at this restaurant after a long period. In fact, after two years. Sadly, I had to change my five ratings to three now. If youre looking for authentic Kerala-style cuisine, this is not the place anymore. I tried their Kerala-style beef. All I was able to taste was oil. And the Kerala parotta was the ready-to-eat one in the Real Canadian superstore. The service is pretty good, and the ambience is also pretty nice. However, I am a person who gives importance to the quality of the food. And unfortunately, it wasnt enjoyable. I dont know why their quality went down. If youre looking for an average indian restaurant, yes, this is the place. But if youre looking for authentic Kerala-style food, this is not the place.

One of my friends suggested this restaurant for South Indian dishes. During our visit, it was crowded. The QR code for the menu was on the table itself. Since the waiters were busy with other orders, we had waited around 10 minutes without noticing the QR code. It might be due to the rush that attendees failed to inform us about the menu. We ordered chicken dum biryani and ghee roast. Both dishes seemed mouth-watering. The ghee roast was top-notch among the ones I already had in BC. Biryani was also good. Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian dishes available Parking: Pay parking facilities outside the restaurant in effect Mon to Friday. Wheelchair accessibility: Yes

The service was pathatic. For Onion uttapam and mysore malasa dosa waited for more than 40 mins and have to ask how long it will take and next minute it was served. Other tables who came and ordered Dosa after us were served before. On top Onion uttapam was uncooked and thick. The excuse for the delay was they can make only 1 DOSA at a time then why we were not informed that we cant take order for 2 DOSAS or we are busy so dont offer it. NEVER GOT SUCH EXCUSE at any restaurant. They should get 0 stars for such service and food. When informed that uttapam is uncooked, the response was will inform the cook. I wasted $31 with them even BILL printout was not offered. Visited this store while coming from North Vancouver and wouldnt recommend any East Indian to eat here. Recent 1 star reviews clearly shows this business have bad service and the food is not good. Clearly server thinks that she remembers everything while taking order and provide bad service. Asks how is the food and when you tell her there is issue then sorry we cant do anything you have to pay for bad food n service.

To buy a good biriyani is hard these days. Recommendations: Even if youre serving frozen rice, kindly try to fluff it up properly before plating it on top of the gravy. Chunks of cold sticky rice is not a good thing. Spicy should mean the food gives a warm sensation from all the spices, and it shouldnt mean you should throw in a lot of red chilli powder to increase the scoville level cause thats just bad cooking (red chilli is just a part of providing that sensation), and it makes the dish unpalatable so kindly do something about it, at least with the biriyani. Please add more curd in raitha, isnt it used to mellow out the spice level or to increase creaminess of each spoonful of biriyani, if anyone needs salad with their biriyani they will order a bowl of it separately, dont have to stuff all the veggies in raitha. Kindly add more fried onions as toppings rather than charred ones, and yes charred onions makes sense if it is to counter food poison, but not in that quantity and it did not work for me, I still had troubles (food poisoning). Table touching, check what it is and see if it can be implemented at least once with each customers, it at least gives customers that face time to ask for water or something else from the menu, before they are done with the first course of meal.
