I visited Travancore Restaurant today at 21:45 (9:45 pm), but the staff told me they were already closed. This was very disappointing, especially because on Google Maps it still shows the restaurant as open. Most Indian restaurants usually serve food until around 11:00 pm, so I had expected similar service hours. If the restaurant closes earlier, it should update its Google listing and official timings so that customers are not misled and left inconvenienced.
I kindly request that someone from the kitchen or management team respond to this review and clarify the actual closing time. It would also help if the timings on Google Maps were updated, so customers don?t face the same inconvenience.

I recently visited this South Indian restaurant and had one of the most satisfying dining experiences. In fact, I was so impressed that I ended up visiting two nights in a row, trying nearly everything on the menu!
? Food Experience
Chicken Peralan ? Richly spiced, balanced flavors, and cooked to perfection. A true standout dish.
Chicken 65 ? Crispy, flavorful, and addictive. Perfectly seasoned and one of the best versions I?ve had.
Mutton Roast ? Absolutely delicious, tender meat with bold spices that carried the authentic Kerala touch.
Duck Curry ? Deep, flavorful curry with a rustic taste. Perfect with the appam and Kerala parotta.
Masala Dosa ? Crispy dosa with well-seasoned potato masala inside. What really stood out was the sambar?one of the best I?ve tasted, with a depth of flavor that lingered.
? Bread & Rice
Appam, Kallappam & Kerala Parotta ? All were excellent! Soft, fresh, and the perfect accompaniment to the curries. The parotta was especially flaky and layered beautifully.
Chicken Kothu Parotta ? Good in texture and flavor, though I felt the coriander leaves were a bit overpowering, masking the other spices. A minor tweak could make this dish outstanding.
Coconut Rice ? This was the only disappointment for me. It didn?t capture the authentic, fragrant flavor of traditional coconut rice and felt somewhat off compared to the other outstanding dishes.
? Seafood & Specials
Nendakar Fish Platter ? Simply amazing! The fish was well-prepared, but what stole the show was the sauce with mussels?rich, savory, and absolutely mouthwatering. Even thinking about it makes me crave it again!
? Overall Experience
The food here is authentic, flavorful, and cooked with care. Except for the coconut rice, everything we tried was outstanding. Service was friendly, and the consistency across dishes was impressive.
I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for authentic South Indian (especially Kerala-style) food. The variety, taste, and quality make it worth visiting again and again.

Ordered a chicken biryani, the worst experience with no masala on the chicken, just populated with tamarind rice and can?t even call as ?biryani?.
