Amazing food and great ambience! The Beef Chatty Dum Poratta was absolutely delicious and had the real authentic taste of Kerala. Every dish was flavorful, and we thoroughly enjoyed our dining experience. Highly recommended!

Absolutely fantastic dining experience at Tindli in Croydon. The food here is incredibly authentic, flavourful, and clearly made with a lot of love and skill. We started with the Dahi Del Puri and Onion Okra Bhaji, both were delicious and packed with excellent, well-balanced flavours. For mains, I had the Prawn Masala with Peshwari naan and pilau rice, while my partner had the Prawn Biryani. I can honestly say this was the best Prawn Masala I’ve ever had. It wasn’t your standard takeaway version, it had real depth, texture, and richness, with juicy prawns and a perfect balance of spice. Truly

We had a really lovely experience at Thindli in Croydon. From the moment we walked in, you could tell this place cares about what it does. The owner being present on the floor makes a big difference, everything runs smoothly and there’s a genuine sense of hospitality. The staff were attentive without being overbearing, which made the whole meal feel relaxed and enjoyable. The food itself was excellent, proper, authentic Kerala cuisine that is hard to find done this well. We tried a mix of dishes including fish, mutton, and chicken, and each one was spot on. The mutton in particular stood out,

We went for an evening meal and had a great time. The mutton curry, Kerala paratha, and Thalassery chicken biryani were all delicious—we loved everything we ordered! The atmosphere was nice and the staff were very friendly. We’ll definitely be back!
