How we read reviews →Kerala cooking in a converted Yarra River tea house, an hour from Melbourne.
A rustic former tea house on the Yarra River with a wood fire and outdoor riverside seating. charming and relaxed, though reviewers say it gets chaotic when fully booked.
Outdoor seating backing onto the Yarra River, a wood fire at the back, a pet-friendly courtyard, and a fish cart special with whole grilled barra, pomfret and trevally.
Reviewers from Kerala are divided: several praise the sadya and fish curry as genuinely authentic, while others say dishes like the mixed thali lean more generic Indian than specifically Kerala style.
Reviews are sharply split. some call the vegan thali and Kerala curries excellent value, while several others say portions are small for $25-30 a dish.
