Wow. What a fabulous restaurant! We had a warm welcome, friendly and attentive service and there was a great ambiance. But most importantly, the food is amazing. Perfectly cooked, flavoursome, balanced and interesting. The menu is very descriptive too which helps to pick out great dishes for people who aren't familiar with them. Thank you to everyone at Mallus for a wonderful evening. We will be back!

The WORST restaurant I have EVER been too. I never write reviews when I haven’t liked something just incase it was a one off, but due to this being so terrible it has to be done. The food was AWFUL, 2 out of the 4 of us bit into our chicken & found a bone, bones in the chicken which was very offputting, 2 out of the 4 was outside smoking, when I bit into bone I then went outside also due to feeling really sick, the staff then took our plates of the table where the last person was eating (the bone was in a i tissue I spat it in on the plate) when I then came back in and the last person was finished with the food we then asked for the bill & I explained about the bone, they was not understanding at all & refused to do anything because we did not show the bone, I was trying to explain I didn’t get a chance too because when I went of feeling sick they had taken the plate with the bone in the tissue, therefor did not have the chance to show them, they was very rude & refused to accommodate, they also kept repeating that “the chef is certain there was no bones” blatantly excusing us of lying & not taking accountability, ontop of that the curry’s tasted VERY sicky & not right. When we got home one of us was on the toilet & 2 of us had cramps. The staff was also not friendly at all & it did not give off a good atmosphere, they did not once come over to ask if we was enjoying it they also only asked once if we wanted anything to drink. I am Very dissatisfied & disappointed. The response is a TOTAL lie. No discount was asked of at all & I said over & over again the bone was in the tissue on the plate which was taken! You claim ‘boneless chicken’ but why did two of us find bones then? also after finding the bone I did not eat anymore of my curry AT ALL! my plate had a lot of food left on it! Only 2 out of the 4 of us had eaten the food. The 2 of us that found a bone left our food. & just to add we have all been unwell today, being sick & on the toilet! there is no need to lie. Thankyou for your response & I hope your restaurant improves. Thankyou!

I phoned initially (as this was our first time there PLUS we had just minutes before been 100% let down by another curry house that implied it was open..but in fact..was not after 1300! However as it turned out "their loss was OUR gain") Phone was answered after just a couple of rings by the waiter we met later at the door who had excellent phone manners is both very polite and professional. On arrival we 3 were met in a very friendly way with service provided being at the right medium (not intrusive but polite and there when needed) Food on arrival was to say they have a very good chef that matched the service. It was EXCELLENT! On getting the bill it was noted it had been very reasonably priced. The vindaloo (both lamb and chicken) was not overly hot..(I do like hot so this could be subjective) also ordered the speciality beef Ijularth which was EXCELLENT. We will definately return..and also recommend highly..FULL STARS from all 3 of us... Keep it going....

Disappointing experience at Mallus couple of days ago. Vada was soaking in oil , hoppers with egg roast had no taste and mains did not taste good as how it used to be when it opened last year. Quality has gone downhill while prices have gone up.

Mallus Restaurant in Maidstone delivered an exceptional dining experience that left us thoroughly impressed. From the moment we walked in, the welcoming atmosphere and friendly staff set the tone for what turned out to be a memorable meal. The food was simply amazing, capturing the authentic taste of Kerala cuisine with remarkable freshness and flavor. Every dish we tried was bursting with the rich, aromatic spices and ingredients that are the hallmark of Kerala cooking. It felt like a genuine taste of back home, a culinary journey that transported us straight to the heart of Kerala. The flavors were vibrant, the presentation was impeccable, and the portions were generous. Overall, Mallus Restaurant provided a delightful dining experience that exceeded our expectations. For anyone craving the real taste of Kerala, this is the place to go. Highly recommended!

Nestled in the high street of Maidstone -Kent Mallus offers an unparalleled dining experience that transports you straight to the lush landscapes and aromatic kitchens of Kerala, India. The menu is a testament to the rich culinary heritage of Kerala, showcasing a diverse array of dishes that cater to both traditionalists and adventurous foodies alike. The starters, such as the crispy and perfectly spiced 'Chemmeeen porichathu and the tender 'chicken lollipop', are a delightful introduction to the feast that awaits. The 'Appam mutta roast is a must-try. For the main course, the 'Kuttanadan Fish Curry' is a standout. The fish is cooked to perfection in a tangy, spicy coconut-based sauce that is simply divine. The 'Beef Ularthiyathu' is another highlight, offering succulent pieces of beef stir-fried with aromatic spices, onions, and curry leaves, creating a dish that is rich, hearty, and bursting with flavor. The service at Mallus is impeccable, with attentive and knowledgeable staff who are more than happy to guide you through the menu and offer recommendations. The chefs' passion for their craft is evident in every bite, making each visit a memorable experience. To complete your meal, indulge in one of the traditional desserts. The 'Semiya Payasam', a sweet pudding made with vermicelli, milk and sugar is the perfect ending to a sumptuous meal, leaving you with a taste of Kerala's sweet culinary traditions. Whether you are a fan of South Indian cuisine or looking to try something new, this restaurant is a must-visit. Highly recommended!

A group of us decided to meet up and use this restaurant as a place to have a lovely meal! Well, on entering the premises, it seemed a welcoming place and the restaurant was nicely laid out, but for us thats where the ambiance stopped! We had already preordered our meals, we also found your menu, very limited, to any Indian Restaurant we have ever visited! The starters were very hit & miss! None of the usual choice of starters like ( Prawn Pirri, no meat samosas, only vegetable ones, which again is not everyone’s choice! Your onion Bhajis, were the worst we have ever eaten! They were that flat, just like a pancake, hard, tasteless, and greasy! The curry’s were brought out, not in any sort of order, so people had there curry’s sitting there quite a while before they got there rice! Therefore food getting cold! The Nan bread, in our case Peshwari, was very flat, and didn’t taste of coconut! Again, no offer, of desserts, or coffee! Most Indian restaurants give you, when you’ve paid your bill, orange segments, a chocolate, and hot towels for wiping your hands! So all in all, would we visit again, I think you’ve guessed!

Just as the interiors of the place the food doesn't disappoint. Was pleasantly surprised. The food tasted amazing. Loved the madras curry with parotha, Also the lamb biryani was flavorful. Chicken lollipop was juicy and flavorful too. Quantity of the Biryani and Lamb curry was good except for the chicken lollipop £ 7.95 for only 3 pieces. Also if the size of the parothas could be a little bigger would have been great. Just a suggestion would be nice to give some mouth freshners if possible along with the bill or kept at the counter. Will definitely be visiting again.

The cuisine here is nuanced, compared to your usual Indian food and far more subtle and authentic...but ultimately, delicious. It has been a long time since I have had an egg in a dish and it was great. For those expecting their 'usual' curried vegetable side with their biryani may be disappointed to find this does not come accompanying their at this place, but, of course, the waiter will honour your bespoke addition if you request it. The lamb biryani they DO serve, though, comes with very light, fragrant rice and plenty of lamb, and the dahl is wonderful and not runny. A couple of words of caution: 1) The poppadoms are a smaller, trendy-size (I did say this foid was more subtle didn't I?) and the establishment seem to default add service to bills. p.s. Oh, and the fish curry is wonderfully fragrant and tasty too. This is a must visit if you are bored of your usual curry house

Nice curry house in Maidstone. Service is fairly good. Decor and ambiance is good. Prices are reasonable. Traditional curry house favourites such as Chicken Tikka Masala/Butter chicken are done very well . But the Keralan/Southern speciality dishes are interesting too. The Keralan chicken curry was not as nice as the butter chicken. Keralan paratha is disappointing. Like normal frozen paratha but shredded up almost in spirals. Adippan Aadu starter is truly delicious (abit like rendang). But better as a main dish. No menu choice of egg rice, but could be asked for perhaps. Lemon rice is ok. All in all it's a good restaurant.
