Kuttanadan Santoor restaurant is a real gem in Hyde Park. I went for the South Indian staples, and the food didn't disappoint—the parottas were perfectly flaky and the prawns had a great kick to them. The surprise highlight was definitely the ribs, which were super tender and flavorful. If you’re looking for authentic flavors that feel like a step up from your usual curry house, this is the spot. I’ll definitely be back!

We came here for lunch after not having been for a while. It is under new management. The buffet lunch was superb and very reasonable. Lots of good choices. Many people there for a weekday lunch and no wonder. Lovely atmosphere. There is plenty of parking since it is located in a shopping center. We will definitely look to return soon.
