Thali

We stumbled upon this restaurant by chance when parking outside (we were originally heading somewhere else) and noticed it was packed with people, which is always a good sign! Only one table was free, so we decided to give it a try, and we’re so glad we did. It was our first time trying thali, and we really enjoyed the variety of flavours. Every dish was delicious, service was excellent, food was served quickly, and the ambience was warm and comfortable. Considering how busy it was, I had expected the food to take a lot longer, but it didn’t! Overall, a great experience. Would definitely recommend & we’ll be back again!

90% of the food was fantastic and very flavourful. There were a few sour notes however. The crab cakes, while made with real crab, had a couple small shells in them, and the texture was not unlike cat food. Nice sauce with them, but for $17 and two crab cakes they’re not worth it. I would recommend the chicken and lamb thali. Both were fantastic. The flavours were strong and varied and all worked well together. I don’t think the fried chickpea thing was good at all, and the spinach grain salad was just okay, but everything else was a delight.

It was our first time at Thali, we ordered crabcakes for the appetizer and for the main meal we chose the namesake dish, traditional thali with protein options. The feast we received was everything we could ask for and more! I ordered my thali with the salmon option and without dairy, and they accommodated my request without issue. If your date has dietary restrictions, this spot is a sure bet for alternative choices without compromising on flavour and variety.

The flavours and presentation of their dishes keeps us coming back and sharing our experience with others. Thali does not disappoint with the Vegan, Vegetarian and non-Veg options. We all can enjoy. Also the flavors are full of warmth but not spicy hot. Very enjoyable.

Was very dissapointed as this place looks so nice based on first impressions. The food was seriously lacking in flavour. I actually had to ask for salt and even that didn’t help. The biryani was one of the worst I have ever had it did not taste authentic at all. The service was also horrendous. It was almost like they were ignoring us on purpose. I would not come back. For the price it is really not worth it. We got the maha thali , butter chicken and chicken biryani. The chai and mango lassi was also very flat. I just felt everything was so below mid, no taste and very flat. No depth no flavour.

We were so excited to find Thali on google and were happy when we saw it had amazing ambience. We ordered veg, chicken and fish thalis seeing the board “meals ready” in malayalam since we are from Kerala. However we were very disappointed to find the thali was nothing close to being a Kerala thali. I understand it was not listed as one but the combination of rajma lentil in a tomato bases sauce, cauliflower in a tomato based Chinese style gravy and avial with just potato and carrot lacked any authenticity for a thali. The paneer curry was okay. The potato and cilantro cutlet was tasty. The salmon curry lacked flavour. Overall does not do justice to the price and ambience.

Food: great food but choose wisely Starter shrimp is fantastic and tasty.. I liked the salmon curry and jeera rice but not the Thali so -1 star Service: responsive staff.. spent time to explain the menu and take feedback Catchy music always playing..

Stopped in for a quick dinner and tried the tandoori lamb chops, pepper lamb, porottas, mango lassi, fresh lime mint rickey, and jeera rice. The food is definitely Kerala-style. The tandoori lamb chops were a bit underwhelming in flavor — fine for a one-time try but not something I’d come back for. On the other hand, the porottas were absolutely amazing — flaky, soft, and perfectly made. The pepper lamb was also a standout, flavorful with the right amount of spice. Drinks were refreshing and paired well with the meal. Overall, a decent experience if you’re in the mood for Kerala flavors, but I’d skip the lamb chops next time and stick with the pepper lamb and porottas.
