Welcome to Sravs Kitchen

“ Visited this place, lovely, delicious Kerala food, we had starters, must try prawns, lamb thali and chicken thali, had butter chicken, amazing and soft, with butter garlic bread. Sweet lassi was good and mango lassi was good but thick, didnt feel like lassi. They had only 1 chef, so service was slow, but soon another chef to join. ”

“ After a few days of indulgent eating, I decided to go for a light meal. I came across this restaurant and stepped in mainly because they served dosa — which sounded like the perfect option for a simple dinner. Honestly, I didn’t have high expectations, given my past experiences with other so-called South Indian restaurants. But what a pleasant surprise this turned out to be! The first bite of dosa with their delicious sambar completely won me over. The dosa was perfectly cooked, and the sambar had that authentic, home-style flavor that instantly reminded me of comfort food. I couldn’t resist ordering another simple dish — sambar with white rice — and it was pure satisfaction. It almost felt like that memorable Ratatouille moment when a bite transports you back to a comforting homemade meal. The menu had plenty of other tempting dishes, and I’m already looking forward to returning and trying more when I’m next in Southampton. A special mention to Sandra, who made the experience even better with her warm, cheerful service. She went out of her way to accommodate a custom order that wasn’t even on the main menu — a small gesture that made a big difference. ”

“ After a long time, returning to Sravs Kitchen on Portswood Road for dinner felt both comforting and memorable, delivering a thoroughly enjoyable dining experience. The chilli chicken was bursting with flavor, perfectly spicy with a well-balanced sauce that coated each tender piece, making it an absolute delight. The chicken 65 was equally impressive, crispy on the outside yet succulent inside, with a subtle heat and aromatic seasoning that lingered pleasantly. The lamb biryani was a true highlight of the meal, rich in aroma and depth, with perfectly cooked lamb that was soft and flavorful, blended beautifully with fragrant basmati rice and traditional spices. The Kerala paratha was soft, flaky, and fresh, complementing the curries wonderfully, while the dosa was light, crisp, and expertly prepared, adding an authentic South Indian touch to the spread. Beyond the food, the service played a significant role in elevating the experience, as the staff were warm, courteous, and attentive, ensuring everything was served promptly and checking in regularly with genuine care, making the evening feel relaxed, welcoming, and truly worth revisiting. ”
