I recently had the pleasure of dining at Malayalam in Eastbourne, and it was an absolutely delightful experience! The Appam and Egg Roast were hands down the best I’ve ever had – perfectly soft appams paired with a flavorful, aromatic egg roast. I also tried the Idli and Chutney, which was light, fluffy, and complemented perfectly with the tangy chutney. To top it all off, the tea was exceptional, with a rich, soothing taste that made the meal even more enjoyable. The ambiance was warm and welcoming, and the service was excellent. Highly recommend this gem for anyone craving authentic Kerala cuisine!

Popped in on Saturday night as they were closing. They very kindly did us a quick Chicken curry with tomato rice . The guy said it would be different to what we normally have when we get a curry. He wasn't wrong. It was lovely. Great flavours and really light. Very friendly staff as well. Definitely recommend this place 👍👍

Glad we visited because we wanted spicy food. Don’t bother with the pre-starter, very expensive for what it is. Main course of paneer (very nice and spicy) and okra dish, with chapatis and apalam. The desert of payasam was disappointing, just hot milk with vermicelli and lacking in sweetness and flavour. Restaurant needs a big upgrade.

Superb South Indian food. The Thunderbolt Lamb starter is out of this world, and for vegetarians the aubergine curry is outstanding. The Mango Lassi, flavoured with cardamom, is the best I have tasted anywhere, including India. Staff are really friendly and attentive and the ambience is nice. It's our regular place for a meal on family birthdays and other special occasions.

Malayalamhas a Kerlaan chef and serves superb South Indian food. Our favourites are the Thunderbolt Lamb starter, which is one of the best dishes I've ever eaten: moist, tender and full of flavour. The aubergine curry is also excellent. And they do dosas and other south Indian specialities. The blend of spices is subtle and delicious. If you've only eaten in restaurants that serve rich North Indian food, it's worth trying something different though they also do biryanis and more familiar dishes. And you must try the mango lassi. It's the only one I've ever had (and I have mango lassi with every Indian meal out) that has cardamom in it and it's a touch of genius!

So far this week we have had a Thai an Italian and now a Keralan Indian..which goes top for quality, quantity and service.
Delightful staff and pleasant surroundings with comfortable furniture still well spaced out.For ''regular''Indian eaters you may find the menu a little limited but for me this was the beauty of it.
Special traditional food, superbly prepared and served onto hot plates (hate it when plates are not heated!!)For once I was happy to eat without the myriad of choices in most Indian restaurants.
Three days left before we depart..will we go again ???Probably !! Try it, I'm sure it will not disappoint.

I will recommend this restaurant – but will get a negative comment off my chest first. Malayalam is undoubtedly (and deservedly) popular – so I knew it was a risk to seek a table-for-one without a reservation on a Friday evening. But it was a balmy August evening and I deliberately arrived soon after the restaurant opened. All tables were reserved but after some deliberations and somewhat hesitantly an outside table was offered – which was perfect. So my only negative comment is: when available, please offer an outside table more readily and willingly. That comment withstanding, food and service were very good. Beef ularthiyathu was richly spiced and tender. I chose the kozhikodan dum biriyani to follow. The serving person was very knowledgeable and helpful; they suggested that this drier style of biriyani benefitted from the addition of a Kerala style vegetable kurma. Excellent advice; a credit to the serving staff. Altogether a very enjoyable meal with authentic dishes that are well cooked and better presented than most Indian restaurants.

Best biryani in Eastbourne HANDS DOWN. Very filling for one, but can be shared, but shockingly tiny amounts of raita served with it, didn't appreciate having to ask for more each time. Chicken pepper was great and went well with the paratha.

The best Indian food I've had since I was last in India . Keralan food at its best , every dish with individual flavours and heat that was just right.
Good value with excellent portions - looking forward to my next visit .

Best Indian food I have tasted in UK and attentive friendly service. Best to reserve, even for lunch.

I needed a venue that would cater for my gluten-free wife and would accomodate our dog.
A review of the on-line menu and the excellent reviews confirmed the first, but an on-line enquiry to the restaurant of the second produced the answer "guide dogs only".
Having noted that outside seating was available, we decided to risk it with our well-behaved dog and sat outside.
I needn't have worried.
My wife said that her meal of Uzhunnu Vada Rice & Lentil Doughnuts followed by Malayali Erachi Curry and accompanied by Palappam rice bread was the tastiest Indian meal that she had ever eaten.
I had the Kerala Egg Roast followed by the Kadapuram Seafood Curry with Palappam.
Delicious!
I had eaten South Indian food before, but not Keralan. This is so different from the run of the mill "curry house" fare usually available and is absolutely delightful.
The very pleasant waitress subsequently confirmed that well-behaved dogs are indeed welcome in the outside seating area.
A winner all round!

Excellent dishes that I had not tasted before. Would highly recommend the Masala Dosa and the Palakkadan Dosa. I am used to curries and spicy food, but the menu had dishes I had never tried before and was impressed by everything we ordered.
The service was good and the staff were helpful.
It’s situated on the beach side of town. If you like Asian food, I would recommend this place.
