Al Roomis in Liverpool

The best ever south indian food I had in the UK. By the time I came all the way from Stoke-On-Trent to have food from ikkaayees, it was closing time. The meaning of customer service, this is it, while cleaning, they set a table in a corner and they made delicious food. That too their new dish "Ilanir Chicken Curry". If you are visiting Liverpool for having kerala food, the best option is Ikkayees. Thank you ❤️

Excellent restaurant !!! Prawn mango curry and ghee rice were the best !!! Will highly recommend . Sham was very friendly and made us really comfortable serving outstanding dishes !!! Will definitely visit again …

Amazing service, just in love with the place ☺️

Lovely and helpful staff, absolutely smashing, accommodating our group of 35 German 6th form students students on study trip to Liverpool on short notice booking, making everything possible to give them an authentic Indian experience. Food absolutely delicious, really good value for money. Everything perfect - Thanks again!

Very good food, even better service

Very tasty food. I will definitely order from here again on a Cheeky Tuesday!

The Indian food is very nice And the staffs are very friendly and have a gentle behaviour A must try restaurant Especially the Appam and Alleppey Chicken curry.

The Food is very tasty and delicious 😋 A must try Restaurant Especially the Appam and Alleppy chicken curry Staffs are very good

The restaurant gives you authentic Kerala food and atmosphere, along with a great and friendly service. Had a great time with my friends. The restaurant also have great North Indian cuisine as well. I recommend this restaurant those who are craving for delicious Indian cuisines.

Food was good but would've appreciated a sauce with our Biryanis. Would order from here again just potentially a curry with sauce instead

Amazing food,Amazing environment ,with great hospitality.Everything served tastes heavenly. Do visit this place for authentic South Indian food.

Good ambience. Perfect for friends and family. Do visit this place for delicious indian food.

This is an excellent place to dine if you are looking for an authentic Indian cuisine. I tried their chicken fried rice, chicken dum biryani, and chicken 65 biryani, and each dish was outstanding, especially the Kozhikoden dum biryani. The prices are very reasonable as well. It is a must-visit restaurant for anyone living in Liverpool.

The food was so good and would definitely recommend if you are looking for a proper Indian meal.

Wonderful food, amazing taste and service

The food was very good, handpicked from Kerala- the taste completely matched the Kerala taste. I would highly recommend this restaurant if anyone is wanting to eat South Indian Kerala cuisine

Try this place for an authentic Kerala food experience

Everything is nice but you have to wait for half hour and for food after order and you it's better to book your seat before you go

For a company that takes pride in being socially conscious I'm really disappointed with my visit this evening. I spotted a free table and came in out the cold after a very difficult day. I was told that there was no space, despite the free table with four seats. I waited outside for 30 minutes and the table remained unoccupied and was never taken. No more customers arrived. So I can only assume that they didn't want the custom of a single person when they "might" get a table of four, but I see no policy for minimum group size. Really disappointing. Takes the shine of this place and I can no longer recommend it.

Food is not sooo nice nowadays from Ikkayees. Even the restaurant start preparing the order after an half an hour from the ordered time. This is not great. Nowadays since for this restaurant Just Eats has the code to be said for delivery confirmation, it is great as I had bad experience previously of not getting the order and now it is rectified. I am not okay with the quality of the food as in not the cleanliness but taste from Ikkayees. The order time and the preparing start time is huge.

Very good restaurant, food was excellent. We had an issue with the booking but the staff sorted it out for us which was very well appreciated Would come again

Delicious food ,one of the Must visit restaurant in liverpool and very close to liverpool station by bus

Amazing food and good customer service…

Ikkayees is the best Indian restaurant in Liverpool UK

A pleasant experience with delicious food and wonderful service.

Food was really awesome. Finger licking

After arriving in Liverpool from India and craving a taste of home, I finally found a spot that served authentic Indian cuisine. I hadn’t eaten Indian food in six days, so I was eagerly anticipating this meal—and it did not disappoint! The food was simply amazing, full of flavor and true to the traditional spices. Each dish was well-prepared, from the fragrant biryani to the rich curries, reminding me of home with every bite. The staff was equally exceptional—warm, friendly, and attentive, which made the experience even more enjoyable. I highly recommend this place if you're looking for a slice of India in Liverpool!

Best place to have mmade koikode food.Loved it♥️

Amazing selection of Indian food. Service was fast and the food had the perfect amount of flavours and spice level. Really friendly and sweet staff. Will return again!

#Best Kerala food #indianfoodinliverpool

Visited the restaurant recently and was highly disappointed with the deterioration in the quality of food. The pepper beef curry was undercooked to a point where the beef was not even tearing apart. The parotta was dry and very oily. The chicken in the kothu parotta was hard and had bones in it. This was not the experience I hoped for considering the first time I visited the restaurant the food was really good.

GreatQuality, Quantity, Value for money Great job to ikkayees team

An amazing experience all around. Delicious food and great hospitality

Very disappointed after having food from the restaurant Ordered a beef chatty curry with paratha and chappathi There was over explosion of flavours in beef curry and masala tasted bitter and the paratha was burnt Very disappointed with the service as well and there was nothing there from the menu giving some lame excuses like opened the shop early and stuff Not recommended at all

The appam, puttu with king prawn mango curry was released good and tasty. I would recommend everyone to try this combo. The taste was really good just remembered me about my mothers cooking.

Definitely the best Indian meal I've ever had in Liverpool. Excellent food, service and atmosphere. Will be going again, and again.

Highly recommended .great customer service

great customer service , staffs are friendly their fish curry ,porotta and dum biriyani is must try ❤️❤️

Amazing food. Great service from Bhagyasree.

Perfect Food!! Super tasty! Fabulous Service! Very recommended

Great hospitality services and food.

One of our Favourite menu crab roast & Appam, must try food.😋

Pleasant atmosphere for having food. Very good hospitality. Overall very good. Try if you love authentic kerala food.

The food in here is one of the best indian food I've had within the UK. The quantity & taste is amazing for the price. The manager / owner & the staff is very courteous and welcoming. After dine-in I had to travel long way to essex from Liverpool and the manager ensured that my takeaway food is properly packed so i dont have to worry. I'd blindly recommend eating here.. will definitely visit again.

The best Indian of my life ever Thank you!

This unassuming gem is fabulous 👌We visited when in Liverpool for work and it will be one of my best memories of the trip for incredible food and service, don’t miss!!!

Ikayees in Liverpool offers an exceptional dining experience, thanks in large part to Shamsu and the other host (forgot to get her name) , the welcoming hosts who makes every guest feel right at home. Their attentive service and genuine hospitality set the stage for a memorable meal. The star of the menu is undoubtedly the Kozhikoden Dum Biryani. The beef dry fry along with it was spot on perfect. Since the meal was spectacular decided to have a dessert, (their palada payasam) as a takeaway, as I didn't have any space to fit anything more in my stomach and oh my god it was beautiful, took me straight back to Kerala. If you're looking for an authentic and satisfying Indian dining experience, Ikayees is a must-visit in Liverpool and don't forget to ask for Shamsu when you're there.

If you want to order through online, order 2 hours before the time you want to eat. Only then you will get your food.

The restaurant is amazing! We went for our dinner. We had pulinji chicken and habibi fish for starters. I would rate 4.5/5 for pulinji chicken and 4/5 for habibi fish. Pulinji chicken had a good taste with the tangy flavour. Habibi fish taste was absolutely amazing but price is high. Must try would be the aapam and king prawn mango curry! Such a stunner! Well cooked and tasted delicious. We didn’t try beef items. The people here were friendly. It took some long time for the food to come once ordered. Other than that, I would give 9.5/10 for this place! Chicken kothu was very good in taste.

Authentic Kerala food. The best in Liverpool. Fish Mango and Appam is a must try❤️

The food was absolutely delicious, and the staff were exceptionally friendly, even with the kids. We enjoyed a variety of chicken and beef dishes, each offering a unique and delightful taste.

Food was so nice, possibly thee best Indian I have tasted and massive portions

Authentic tasty kerala food. Good atmosphere and friendly service. Highly recommended!!

Tasty food with good service and nice ambience and friendly staff.worth trying

One of the best in Liverpool. Taste is great ☝🏻👍

Really nice curry food arrived hot would order again

Amazing south indian food! By far the best kerala cuisine food I’ve ever had in Liverpool. The service was amazing as well.

Ikkayees in Liverpool brings the vibrant flavors of Kerala right to your table. The menu offers a delightful range of Indian traditional dishes, from the spicy, aromatic biryanis to the creamy, coconut-rich curries that are true to the region's culinary roots. The ambiance is warm and welcoming, making it the perfect spot for a cozy meal with family or friends. Whether you're a fan of Kerala cuisine or trying it for the first time, Ikkayees promises a memorable dining experience. You will love it for sure 😋😍

Probably the best Indian in Liverpool. Service was slightly slower but this has just opened. It is also the best reviewed in Liverpool. Staff were very helpful and striving to serve food in a timely manner. The drinks are so well priced it is worth a visit because the entire bill is around £50 for three people.

My recommend is to try butter chicken

Food 10/10 Service 10/10 Taste 10/10 Great little indian Cuisine! If you are in and around Liverpool, I definitely recommend to visit this place.

Creamiiiiiiiest korma ever We love the place! But hurry up… you could be to Late for table!

Really good authentic South Indian dishes

We have been to many Indian restaurants in liverpool I would say this is the best The food is very tasty authentic we tried Akbari chicken masala loved it We had shahi chicken tikka biryani which was apt I would recommend it to all my friends In Starters we had seekh kebaab and spring roll

Great food! Amazing recommendations given by the staff. Everything was delicious. Would definitely recommend!

For a while now, I've been trying Indian cuisine at different restaurants, but I'd say this is the best biryani I've ever had since I started exploring. Thank you, Ikkayees, for the delicious chicken tikka biryani. As someone who loves mango juice, I really enjoyed the mango shake I ordered with the biryani. I'll definitely be visiting again. Their food is delicious and at an affordable price with great staff

Food was amazing. Its been 11 months in Liverpool, but have never eaten something like that especially the “Akbari chicken masala and Kerla chicken biryani.

first of all I didn't expect that much from a kerala indian restaurant but when I went there my mind was changed service was really good and the food was very tasty they got halal , veg & non veg which is quite good so overall the whole experience was way above my expectation and obviously want to go next time

Good ambiance and I really enjoyed the food.

The food was yummy. Fish mango at its BEST. The best Indian Restaurant in Liverpool.

Dont Go There You will be Addicted...The Best indianfood

Ate here with the Pokey LaFarge Band before our show at the Liverpool Philharmonic. Best food of the tour!!

Hospitality , food , atmosphere was nice especially shamsu

Highly disappointed with this restaurant! I went there after reading the reviews but it seems the reviews are fake. The service is super bad. There weren’t many people still it took them 20 mins to give me menu. I asked for water but the guy wasn’t paying attention and I got the water for 30 mins after asking again. I ordered paneer tikka - tasteless, I ordered kadai paneer - the red chili was so much that other tastes were messed up, and I also ordered garlic naan and it was fully burner. I with recommend NOT to go to this place as they don’t know what they are doing.

Great staff. Great food. Can’t wait to go again. Highly recommended A+++

My love for curries is in my DNA. I set up a Curry Club at work and have been to over 50 restaurants in Staffordshire alone. Cannock, where I’m from, is a curry heartland with many fine restaurants that have lasted the test of time, showcasing the best of South & North India, Bangladesh, Kashmir, Nepal, and modern, fusion dishes. My search for great curries has taken me far and wide. I’ve been to London, Edinburgh, Manchester, Cardiff, Birmingham’s Balti Triangle, Bradford’s Karachi, Glasgow’s oldest & finest Koh I Noor. I have eaten curries championed by my heroes Rick Stein, Dan Toombs, Si King & Dave Myers (RIP). The Chicken Karahi I had here is the best of them all. Ikkayees haven’t just set the bar high, they’ve blown it through the roof. The restaurant is small & minimalist, which actually got my hopes up. In my experience, small & minimal leads to quality over quantity and tend to be places that let the food do the talking (and they do!) Was greeted by name by very friendly staff and was accommodated easily despite being early. I’d recommend booking ahead. Papadams and chutney tray to get the ball rolling. Another early sign of quality and the quality yet to come. Chutneys and pickles take time to make. I’ve done them at home to amazing results. They often beat restaurant quality due to the need to make lots and make them quickly. Mango chutney was smooth and tangy. I’d love their recipe for their lime pickle. It’s definitely a house special. Blended, rather than chunky, the lime is definitely mixed with chillies and spices, maybe some naga pickle. Couldn’t place all the flavours but there’s a lot going on and well worth trying. The chips came before the mains and were gone before the mains. I used them as extra dipping after the papadams were demolished. Perfectly salted. Then the mains, served with naans. We ordered Butter Chicken, Chicken Tikka Massala & Chicken Karahi. They all looked amazing, especially the Butter Chicken & Chicken Karahi. The chicken was so tender, the texture was perfect - lovely thick sauce in the Karahi. Lots of meat in the dish, spiced to perfection. I asked for mine hot, and this was done subtly, through delicate uses of spices, rather than just whacking in more cayenne pepper or powder. The food sent me on a journey through memory lane as I wondered if I’d ever had one this good before. My daughter asked, “Are you ok dad? Your eyes are watering.” It wasn’t because it was too hot. I was having a moment. I’ve searched high and low for the perfect curry. And I’d just found it.

Dining at Ikayees, a gem specialising in authentic Kerala cuisine, and I must say, it was an extraordinary culinary journey. Each dish was a masterful blend of flavours and spices, reflecting the rich culinary heritage of Kerala. Firstly, King Fish Mango Curry, a dish that truly stands out, my personal favourite. The tender king fish was perfectly cooked, with the tangy mango adding a delightful contrast to the rich, spicy gravy. The balance of flavours was impeccable, with the sweetness of the mango perfectly complementing the heat of the spices. Next, we savoured the Kerala Beef Ularthiyathu (Coconut Infused), new to the menu. This dish was a revelation, with succulent pieces of beef marinated in a medley of spices and slow-cooked to perfection. The infusion of coconut added a subtle sweetness that elevated the dish, making each bite an explosion of flavour. The Chicken Kappa Biriyani was another highlight of our meal. The combination of tender chicken and mashed tapioca (kappa) was unique and flavourful. The spices were well-balanced, creating a harmonious blend that was both comforting and exciting. Each mouthful was a testament to the chef's skill in marrying traditional Kerala flavours with innovative techniques. To accompany these dishes, we had Appam, which were soft, fluffy, and slightly crispy at the edges. They were the perfect vehicle to soak up the delicious gravies and curries, enhancing the overall dining experience. To wash it all down, we enjoyed a refreshing Mango Lassi. The lassi was smooth, creamy, and had just the right amount of sweetness and tangy. It was the perfect way to cleanse the palate and cool down after indulging in the spicy dishes. Overall, Ikayees delivered an exceptional dining experience, with each dish showcasing the vibrant and diverse flavours of Kerala cuisine. The skilful use of spices and fresh ingredients, combined with the warm and inviting atmosphere, made our visit truly memorable. I highly recommend Ikayees to anyone looking to experience authentic Kerala flavours in all their glory.

Excellent experience. All the food items that we ordered were so high in quality. Real taste of Kerala guaranteed. The service was also great. Highly recommended.

The Delicacy of Kerala cuisine and excellent service. I had the traditional Alappuzha Chicken Curry with appam, and the taste was simply unbeatable. An authentic food experience.

Mango king fish curry, tasted amazing!!

Food was lovely. The owners went above & beyond & beyond & personally delivered my order after the Uber rider that had an attitude refused to give me my food. Thank you very much for going out of your way delivering to me. Highly recommended (not the Uber guy lol) 100% recommend. She was very friendly & understanding.

Very tasty food and super services

"The restaurant exceeded my expectations with its flavorful dishes, impeccable service, and inviting ambiance. Each bite was a culinary delight, showcasing creativity and attention to detail. A must-visit for food enthusiasts seeking a memorable dining experience. Highly recommend!"

The food was honestly a delicacy to my taste buds .

I was recommended this place by my sister and it was such delicious authentic Indian food with an offer of both north and South Indian dishes. We did not wait long for our freshly prepared food at all and left with our stomachs full! Would recommend this place to everyone, you will definitely enjoy!!

Best indian restaurant in Liverpool by far. Food was mouth watering and it had the friendliest and loveliest staff. Will definitely be back!

I highly recommend this restaurant for those who prefer to enjoy the real essence of Indian food. Kozhikoden Dham Biriyani was particularly my favourite, good ambience and customer service... Had a nice holiday wih delicious food...

I had the chicken Briyani and nadan chicken fry along with mango lassi, they were absolutely delicious. Bhagyasree served the food for me and had a nice conversation as well. I highly recommend Ikkayees for the best food.

Loved the spice levels in the dishes. The beef fry n curry with paratha combo was a highlight. The ambiance adds to the whole experience. The staff was incredibly friendly, and the service was quick. Will definitely be back!!! ❤️❤️❤️

“The food and service quality was truly exceptional, I can't wait to come back”

Ambience of the restaurant was really good and also taste of the food was amazing

I had a nice dinner hee yesterday, I had Pilau, the rice was cooked well, also had Saag Aloo (this did not taste fresh and didn't have much saag in). The raita and samosas were nice. Overall it was okay.

Amazing food and friendly staff😇

Authentic Kerala food. Chicken Dum biriyani is a must try.

Amazing place for Indian food in Liverpool. Staff is very nice and the food is awesome at a very reasonable price.
