Wow..what a soulful experience today! Ordered Kerala parota, kadai mutton, paneer in banana leaf, Plain rice and Yam curry. Yeah and finally 2 masala tea!! Everything was so tasty especially the yam curry❤️ We are dining in here after a long time. Very good customer service and the ambience was perfectly set with soothing music❤️
The Kerala food at Kairali is quite good and offers generous portions. Their chicken biryani combo is a must-try, and the customizable non-veg meals are also excellent. If they could improve their overall ambiance and service slightly, it could easily be a 5 out of 5 option.
The food was served within 20 minutes!! The chicken lollipop tasted awesome with full of flavours!! Appam and chicken kurma were fantastic with an authentic flavour.. Beef Kizhi parotta tasted great!! Mutton Kothuwas delicious.. we enjoyed our dinner today !!
Overall: The food and service was really good! The quantity of each dish is more than enough and they were tasty. The atmosphere and cleanliness were not up to the standards. There were couple of flies in the dining area, the washrooms smelt really bad and were not clean at all. Food: Personal favourites are Wings 360, Boaty roast, Mutton dhum biryani. Kappa Biryani is a unique dish, no rice and just mutton and kappa(cassava). I had other dishes to pair it with. So dont expect typical biryani and disappoint yourself. Boaty roast was yumm, will definitely get it next time as well. I will probably do take out next time rather than dining in.
Yummy Indian food, service was excellent. I went here on a Saturday with my family we had ordered the chilly chicken, parotta and tandoor chicken. The chilly chicken was good but the chicken was blackish on the inside. The parotta was very nice I took extra for takeout and then heated on the stove. It was even better after heating. We also bought the tandoor chicken, it tasted good but was not heated to my liking so I asked to heat it a bit more. The staff were very friendly and came to our help with a smile. The atmosphere was ok they had a cosy restaurant but would have helped if it was more decorated and larger in size as the parking lot was bigger then the entire restaurant. The price was expensive but it was reasonable. Overall 5 stars will recommend to go dine in tho.
I came for an unplanned lunch with my friend on Sunday and luckily got the seating. I ordered Chicken and mutton dum briyani and their Sunday special shrimp nirvana. the food take quite some time to arrive. The shrimp nirvana is well made and the taste is a blast.
Decent food and menu options. Service could be a little more fast and better. Had to wait 15-20 mins to make an order after being seated, even though place was empty and there were only two tables with customers. Food options are okay but most time feels like the quality goes up and down each time. Consistency could be improved
Food was hot and okay. I frequently used to eat the bucket biriyani sold here. Its so good with the tandoori chicken and biriyani rice . As for today we had combo 5(beef curry) , combo 6(fish fry) , dum biriyani and chicken kothu roti . Its okay.
Excellent food. In restaurant atmosphere is very poor. Management does not check guests who talk loud or play music from their phones. Best for takeout only. Parking: Good parking behind the restaurant. Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp with guard rails leading to front door. It s a little steep but manageable.
Its good....
TASTY FOOD WITH REASONABLE EXPENSE
Nice food
Awesome service !!
Tried Kingfish cooked in banana leaf , it was really amazing.Good customer service. Ferzana was great with her service
The ambiance was perfect for a relaxing evening out.
Food was good. I ordered bucket chicken biryani, koth roti and kerala fish fry. Service was lacking. Staff was not very interactive while taking my order. Great atmosphere, nice music played in the background. Vegetarian options: The menu is very big and has many options. Among them vegitarian food is also available. Parking: Huge parking lot near to the building. No parking fees.
Neema is very nice and friendly staff member... The food was very good. I highly recommend end everyone to come and enjoy their delicious food and great service... Kid-friendliness: The staff was very nice to our kids.. They offered us and our kids a delicious meal..
Mutton Dum Biryani is a must try..
Farzana was the best at service would come back ...
Visited the restaurant today and had a nice experience . Compared to other kerala restaurants , the availability of kerala meals at night is a plus. Tried their fish curry meals and quiet satisfying. Special thanks to Farzana who served us during the visit.

We visited Kairali Restaurant right before their closing time, and we were impressed by their exceptional hospitality. The staff was friendly and accommodating, ensuring we had a relaxed and enjoyable dining experience. The food was authentic, flavorful, and freshly prepared, despite the late hour. It s clear that they prioritize customer satisfaction. A big thank you to the team for going above and beyond. Highly recommend Kairali Restaurant for both their service and delicious dishes!

Yummy south indian/kerala cuisine.
Food and service were good .
I recently tried the Mixed Fried Rice, and it was a wonderful meal. The chicken and shrimp were both tender and flavorful, adding a satisfying protein element to the dish. The egg turned out to be perfectly cooked, with a light creamy texture that went well with the other ingredients. The chopped vegetables-carrots, peas, and bell peppers, perhaps?-added a nice crunch and freshness to balance out the richness of the fried rice. I loved the basmati rice, light and fluffy with a nutty flavor that complemented the savory stir-fry seasoning. Overall, the dish was well-seasoned, though I felt it could have used a bit more of a kick in terms of spice for those of us who enjoy that little something that gives a spicier or bolder flavor profile to a meal. The portion size was generous for the price, and it felt like a fulfilling meal. The only reason I didnt give it a full 5 stars is that I would have liked a little more variety in the vegetables or perhaps some extra sauce to make it even more flavorful. Overall, this is a great option if youre craving a comforting, well-balanced fried rice dish. Highly recommend it!
Amazed with the excellent service of the staffs, especially Ferzana was very polite and treated us well

One of the best Kerala restaurant in Scarborough. I had some of the dishes like beef ulathiyath wid combo 5, beef biriyani etc. Absolutely awesome . Excellent environment, friendly service, great menu choices and really decent food and at affordable prices. I can say it again, I never had this much tasty beef from Canada. Highly recommend

Food was delicious and worthy.
This is one of the top spots to enjoy Kerala-style cuisine. My friends and I had a wonderful time there. The restaurant boasts an excellent ambiance, and every item we ordered was delicious and of high quality. It s the ideal place to start your day with a satisfying, genuine meal. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking fantastic food and outstanding service.
They have excellent service. Farsana is very sweet and has very good customer service.

Their restaurant serves contaminated food. There are flies everywhere when you visit them in person and the food is kept and served in those conditions. Unless your gut immunity is excellent please be cautious, I have suffered twice for ordering from here because I forgot why I stopped eating from this restaurant.
I went in with my friends recently here and the experience was so disappointing. We order chicken biriyani and fish nirvana. Biriyani taste like maggie noodles and fish niravana also taste so bad. Was such a bad experience ruined our day. We also ordered falooda which is not even a falooda. There was a Lady there which i beleive her name is anagha was so rude and she has a attitude issue. Totaly not worth to be there.
Their service is really good.
If you re around there corner at lunch time try their meals combo 6 plus they have beer to cool you up
Good food and great service !! Must visit place in Toronto!!
The food and service of the staff was pretty good.
Waited 5 minutes outside to figure out even it was open. Would have been gone to somewhere else if I didn t see the We are open walk-in board . Went inside waited another 10 minutes until we figured out it was a self service. Neither the guy nor the lady didn t even look at our face in the meantime. We went and ordered a bucket chicken biriyani (dried out and very less in quantity) and with 2 lime juice it was almost $35. Very bad customer service by the lady in the counter always on phone and the guy standing there like a security guard.
The food flavors were rich and the portion size was generous. I also appreciated the variety of options on the menu, Our server FERZANA was exceptional. She was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu.
Food is amazing as always. This is my go to spot. Great service.
Pwolich machanee

Good service
Excellent food with a wide variety of choices in the menu. We were well served by Farzana who was very friendly and prompt. Thanks for the nice experience..
Fish Nirvana was good but the Kerala porotta was not that crispy, very good customer service by Farzana
We ordered 3 combo and waited for about one hour..the service is worst one over here.. one lady was there and she was so rude infront the customers..how can you guys run a business with such people?? I am sure that s why no one is there in the store and of course this is my last purchase from there..owner please hire someone good if you wanna run the business worst one ever visited.
