    We mostly order take out from here. Their Beef Dry Fry tastes yummy when you have it hot. We ordered their Chilly Chicken, BDF with Appam, Chapati & Porotta. Chilly chicken had a lil too much sauce in it. Rest everything was amazing.

    Recently visited hotel Arafa in Kochi with my family. Tried most of the items. The food was delicious. You must try parotta with nadan beef fry and kerala style mutton biryani. The hotel is very budget friendly.

  • 4/5 lijith l. 8 months ago on Google
    I have visited this restaurant several times. Have tried beef biryani, chicken biryani, idiyappam and beef roast, snacks like samoosa, cutlet .. Highlight is that all non veg items was well cooked and tasty

    One of the best Kochi style Biriyani

  • 4/5 BK J. 1 year ago on Google
    One of the most tasty food delivering restaurants I have ever visited and that I still savor the taste of it, especially for its beef items! A low-scale restaurant in Kochi (past Chullikkal) on the bus route, without official parking lot except some space for bikes, and having a too ordinary ambience; Arafa restaurant is not at all a hot topic among culinary until you order for their beef items. I hope you too will love it just like I did and I do all the time I visit there, and become a fan of it as I have become! The Pazhampori (the roasted thin banana slices) is another must among the snacks!!

    i bought beef curry and chicken curry for family now they cannot eat anything else they feel nauseated and vomiting feeling when they see food. its been 1 week we had stomachache and food poisoning. Very bad food.

    We have had several dinners at this place with my friends, and each time the service was not satisfactory. However, we still go there because of the delicious BDF they serve. Yesterday, we had dinner there again, ordering poratta (which was as cold as outer space), beef curry, beef ulathu, BDF, chiratta putt, and black tea. The beef ulathu had a peculiar taste. Unfortunately, today three of us are experiencing stomach problems. Consequently, we have decided to blacklist Arafa from the list of hotels we frequently visit.

I got some green piece and beans from it ,how come?. If you don't know then don't sale it because we buying food to relief our hungry. Please don't do it again, it's my humble request 🙏🏻

  • 4/5 giljovarghese 1 year ago on Google
    Biriyani is the highlight.... Hyderabadi style biriyani... Taste good.... No parking..😒 and the ambient is very avarage... Toilet was so bad.... 1980s model dine area and atmosphere...

  • 4/5 Dani P. 1 year ago on Google
    Food with quality and Quantity and Biriyani. One among the best biriyani spots in Kochi. They serve the best Beef Biriyani and other biriyanis are also nice. Went there for both breakfast and lunch. Breakfast we had Idiyappam and Beef which was also delicious. Tender and Tasty. They also have an AC section for choosers. But the food served here with quality in low prices suitable for normal people. Is hard to get decent biryani in good prices in kochi. So must try and also in a good location to access.

    Good and tasty food.We only order take out from here so we can't say much but it is good for the average kochi resident.

  • 4/5 Georit G. 1 year ago on Google
    The place is good clean and spacious has family and ac section. It mostly crowded atleast whenever i have visited. Most of the crowd is for take away so theres place to sit and eat most of the times. The food is tasty and the quantity and price are decent. So if you're in cochin this is a must visit place. Tc have fun 👍 😀

    Tasty food, though a bit spicy (we had chicken korma, beef roast and biriani rice). Decent space for sitting only complaint is that they had no curd, so we had to go outside mid lunch to buy a packet of curd from the neighboring shop.
