There are few authentic kerela restaurants in the Bay Area and Karikku is one of them. The beef Peralan was spicy and delicious but slightly overcooked. The porotta was fresh and yummy.

If you're looking to savor authentic Kerala cuisine, Karikku Cafe in Fremont is a must-visit. We tried the Kerala parotta, which was perfectly soft, fluffy, and not overly oily, alongside Appam that paired beautifully with the rich Chicken Varuthara gravy. The highlight was the Karimeen masala, which was packed with flavor and complemented the other dishes wonderfully. The service was quick and efficient, making the overall dining experience delightful. Highly recommend this place for anyone craving traditional Kerala flavors!

Honestly one of the few dishes I was able to eat during my 1st trimester was from Karikku cafe. We ordered the idiyappam and kerala style chicken curry. It was delicious and I enjoyed this meal a lot. Hubby had it with parota and loved how flaky and delicious the food was. This years Onam Sadhya hosted by Sangama also served most delicious and authentic kerala Sadhya food by Karikku cafe. Can't wait to try out other amazing dishes at this restaurant.

Ordered kappa, karimeen, porotta and beef peralaan. Picked up the food. Food was good and quantity was reasonable. I hoped for better fish so would not recommend. Presuming it being a fresh water fish from India I cannot ask for freshness here. The best dish was the beef. Got to go back for a few more dishes.

Everything we ordered was really good. Plenty of meat, tender, no bones to pick through, and flavors were strong and delicious. The lunch combo is well worth it with 2 parottas.

Went for lunch dine-in right before its closing time & I was amazed to see it being still crowded. Ordered masala fish fry for appetizer, thalassery chicken & mutton biriyani, porotta & beef peralan & as a malayali I should say that it is one of the best kerala food I have tried in recent times. The masala fish fry, well coated & fried & yummy! The biriyani was both good but the mutton biriyani stood out a notch over the chicken. The meat was tender & well cooked in both & enough quantity in 1 plate. The porotta was so soft & the beef tasted homemade & so tender. Overall really satisfied with the food & the ambience of the place.
