Hotel Rahmaniya Kethel's Chicken - Chicken restaurant in Thiruvananthapuram - Thiruvananthapuram, India

A bit overrated!!! The best of one so far is the authentic tender chicken fry. Other than this, everything is fine, yet not great, particularly the ghee rice and coin-sized chappathi. The combos are also not worth the price. As the customer crowd grew, the food quality seemed to have decreased.

I was there in trivandrum for almost 5 years and had tried the kethels chicken more than 5 times especially from their chala branch. Yesterday I had tried again from the same hotel but the experience is not what i got before. The reason I pointed out is the increase in their number of customers and that impacted in the quality and quantity of the food they are serving. The chicken gravy and the chapathi is not that good now. We can eat many chapathi by only buying the gravy but now it's not like that. More water is added in the gravy hence there is no spicy feeling. Anyway they are still serving their same old traditional kethels chicken fry. If you are going to this hotel, I am suggesting you to only buy the kethels chicken fry by spending an amount of 190rs. I will share their rates and photos with this post for understanding the rates.

The have a limited number of seats to eat (around 20) and have to wait if you go on peak time. The price doesn't justify the items, the chicken pieces didn't have any flesh or very less, the chappati were too small and the gravy was just okay. The lime juice was good and they did refill as well. IMO one could spend the same amount (It was 220 when I visited) have a good chicken pieces and regular sized roti's.

We (myself and my brother) already went to this place years ago , before they were famous . Comparing with spicyness, Kethel's Chicken was spicy at that time but now I feel like zero spicyness . Chicken as usual ( small and tender ). Also good hospitality . If you were wish to come here . Then never come with a car because it's hard to find parking .

The most hyped , overpriced hotel ever. I don't know why people fell over this hotel. 6 coin sized chappathi, gravy and 8 chicken fry pieces (not of hen; it's of "quail" ) cost rupees 220 . If you buy a plate of ghee rice, Rs 100 will say "tata" from your pocket ... Extra the above said 8 "quail" fry pieces costs Rs 180. Afterall of you are having water from this restaurant, each glasses cost you Rs 10 each... Each glasses 10 rupees... Totally not recommended... If you got some lottery, enjoy spending the Money .. 2/5

Food was good. The famous kethel's chicken is tasty. At the same time bit expensive compared to other restaurants. Also to get access to the restaurant is difficult. Parking is not near

Excellent taste as always Kethels chicken never disappoints anyone. Free lemonade is amazing

Kethels chicken fry is a must try in tvm. It's very spicy and the combination with chapathi , lime juice and lemon pickle is legendary. The service is quick and it's mostly crowded at all times as the seating capacity is very very less.
