  • 5/5 arun m v. 3 years ago on Google
    The best kerala restaurant i have been in entire japan, the taste was so authentic and subtle. You will feel that your mom has cooked food for you. The most interesting part is this was cooked by two japanese people which makes it so special. Here I experienced the best kerala food served in japanese hospitality. One of the must visit place for keralites coming to Okinawa

    (Translated by Google) A shop where you can eat South Indian food @ Meals. I used it for lunch, but the vegetarian menu is the main, and there is a curry menu with meat. Lunch menu is 1200-1600 yen He does not use wheat and dairy products. (Original) 南インド料理 ミールスが食べれるお店。 ランチで利用しましたが、ベジタリアンメニューがメインで、一応肉の入ったカレーメニューあり。 ランチメニューは1200円〜1600円 小麦と乳製品は使っていないとのこと。

    Delicious food, nice music, cozy vibes. Must try the lunch / dinner meal and each and every item in that is tasty. The chef is a Japanese guy but the taste is authentic Sound Indian. This will be a must visit for me every time I come to Naha!

    This is one of the finest place in Okinawa to enjoy South Indian cuisine. The person was friendly and seems enjoys the work . 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Unlike typical restaurant where food is already half cooked , here foods are prepared from beginning after you order so it may take some time until served but after that you enjoy the delicious food and your will appreciate the presentation as much as the taste of the food. We visited during lunch time .. very pleasant and relaxing atmosphere.

    (Translated by Google) Not long ago, I received Mariam's meals. I didn't quite understand that it was the South Indian meal, but I couldn't understand it if I converted it into the brain, saying, "Several types of curry and various side dishes of vegetables." Anyway, it's colorful and a little strong with spices. However, it is not about spiciness, but it is used in a way that better expresses the characteristics of each spice, but it seems to be organized as a whole. It was such South Indian curry. I think it is finished in Japanese taste. (Original) 少し前のことですが、マリアラムのミールスをいただいてきました。南インドのミールスと聞いてもよくわからなかったけれど「カレーが数種類、野菜の副菜がいろいろ」と脳内変換すればピンときました。とにかくカラフルで、スパイス使いもちょい強め。といっても辛さのことではなく、各スパイスの特徴をよりよく表しているような使い方で、それでいて全体的にまとまっているような。そんな南インドのカレーでした。日本人好みに仕上げられているのではないでしょうか。

    Small simple cafe tucked away from the busy downtown with delicious made fresh southern Indian vegan food. There are 12 seats and when we came for lunch just one person working there, doing the serving and cooking. Everything was made fresh after we ordered. The curries all tasted different and we’re delightful. The little sides included were delightful and the freshly made chai was incredible. Found this place by accident and am so glad I did! I’m not vegan and still found the food to be amazing so I’ll definitely be back. Highly recommend!

    Tasty South indian food in Okinawa. It’s a nice cozy place. Food is authentic South Indian although the restaurant run by a Japanese guy. In india we call it “Satvik Bhojan”. (Satvik is a Sanskrit word, meaning "Light," "Goodness" and "Purity." And Bhojan is “Meal”.

    Excellent vegan and GF south Indian food. You can get a 2 curry set with rice and side dishes, 3 curry set or 4. I got 4 and it was more than enough. Sadly no dosas anymore. The chef is very nice and is working alone so be patient. Very nice street and coffee shop just up the road 20 metres is excellent too. He can take card payment but it wasn’t working today.

    Absolutely an amazing experience... A prime example of Japan mastery on adapting the techniques of indian cooking. Grab their dhosa. And grab their tea 🍵.... You won't go wrong if you are in the mood for south Indian vegetarian flavours.

  • 5/5 akio a. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) I got a morning porridge set. (It is surprised that there is porridge in South India!) It was delicious with a gentle taste that seemed to reset my body. Spice does not seem to be used much, but eats and warms up in a few minutes and is most suitable for breakfast. It's kind of taste so kids can eat it. I want to go to lunch with my 1 and 3 year olds. (Original) モーニングのお粥セットを頂きました。 (南インドにもお粥があるのがビックリ!) 体をリセットしてくれそうな優しい味で美味しかったです。 スパイスはあまり使用されてないみたいですが、食べて数分で身体が温まり朝食には最適です。 優しい味なので子供でも食べられそうです。 こんど、1歳と3歳児を連れてランチに行きたいと思います。

    (Translated by Google) I had a morning porridge set and a soup set. South Indian curry shop is here only in Naha city and the owner. The food was smooth, but the spices worked and it was delicious. Recommended for vegans! Chai is excellent! (Original) モーニングお粥セットとスープセットを頂きました。南インドカレーのお店は那覇市内ここだけと店主さん。サラサラと頂ける料理でしたが、スパイスも効いていて美味しかったです。 ビーガンの方にもお薦め!チャイは絶品!

    (Translated by Google) Breakfast porridge at South Indian Maria Mariam on Ukishima-dori. It is open from 7am here. Isn't it unusual in Okinawa to use Indian rice basmati? It is a gentle taste that feels the flavor of vegetables as a whole. (Original) 浮島通りにある南インド料理マリアラムで朝食のお粥。ここは朝7時から営業しています。 インド米のバスマティを使っているのは沖縄では珍しいのではないでしょうか。全体的にお野菜の風味を感じる優しい味です。

    (Translated by Google) I've been waiting for South Indian food! Family business? A vegan dish with delicate spices, carefully selected ingredients in a small restaurant. I usually eat a lot of meat to suit my family, but if I live alone, I want to go there! Anyway, I was comfortable and I stayed for a long time, but I am grateful for your polite response without any unpleasant face. I will definitely come again 💕 It is 7 minutes from the international street and 5 minutes from the market. You can relax in a quiet and calm place ~ (Original) 待ってました南インド料理!ご家族経営?の小さなレストランで、原材料を丁寧にセレクトされていて、繊細なスパイス使いのヴィーガン料理。普段は家族に合わせてお肉もたくさん食べますが、一人暮らしだったら通いたい! とにかく居心地がよく、つい長居してしまいましたが、嫌な顔一つされず、丁寧にご対応くださり感謝です。 また絶対来ちゃいます💕 国際通りから7分、市場から5分位のアクセスです。静かな落ち着いたところでまったりできます〜

    (Translated by Google) [South Indian Dining Malayalam] Ashram's vegetarian cuisine + kerala exquisite veggie meals South Indian Dining Malayalam, located a short distance from Naha Ukishima Dori. It is a restaurant where you can enjoy vegan-friendly veggie meals that mix Indian vegetarian food eaten in ashram and Kerara's home-style taste. The main vegetables are naturally cultivated, Indian spices are used as a basis, and Okinawan spices are also combined. Banana leaves go to Uruma City every week and are shared by banana farmers. The meals that feel that commitment have a different scent quality, and a gentle finish that you can firmly feel that it permeates the body. Okinawa and South India are a good match, aren't they? ・ Lunch meals C set 1760 yen ・ Gira Rice 330 yen ・ Masala dosa set 990 yen ・ Moringa tea 220 yen (Original) 【South Indian Dining Malayalam】アシュラムの精進料理+ケララな絶品ベジミールス 那覇 浮島通りから少し入ったところにあるSouth Indian Dining Malayalamさん。アシュラムで食べるインドの精進料理とケララの家庭の味をミックスしたヴィーガン対応のベジミールスが楽しめるお店です。 メインとなる野菜は自然栽培のものを使い、インドのスパイスを基本に沖縄産のスパイスも合わせ、バナナリーフは毎週うるま市に行ってバナナ農家さんから分けて貰ってるなどこだわりもすごいです。そのこだわりを感じるミールスは香りの質の違い、身体に染み渡っていくのがしっかりと感じ取れる優しい仕上がり。沖縄と南インド、なんか相性良しですよね〜。 ・ランチミールスCセット 1760円 ・ジーラライス 330円 ・マサラドーサセット 990円 ・モリンガ茶 220円

    I am a South Indian, so my the comment you are reading is really authentic. Taste of sambar was nice, overall food is good, but do not expect 100% authentic. South Indians won’t serve rice soup with meals. Also no yoghurt salad with meals. I think the chef should replace those 2 dishes and make either Aviyal and rasam. 1400¥ for this meals is expensive for me. Also no free extra rice. Anyways I appreciate him to make such a very good sambar.

    We found this restaurant by accident… We were actually heading to the vegan restaurant near by & found it was closed - so came in here in the end suuuper hungry. When I saw there’s only 1 person doing everything - I thought we are going to wait for our food at least 40 min. However, in 15 min max everything was in front of us. Beautiful dish, very very tasty!!! Nice old cutlery, simple decorations, vintage lamps & pleasant music. Such a contrast from the craziness of the main street… The chef / waiter is really polite, kind & fast. Definetely try the desserts! We went for the Gajar halva & Paal payasam - mmmmm, amazing!!! 🙏🏻

    (Translated by Google) You can see that it is made of healthy ingredients just by eating a bite. Curry is in the form of soup and is mixed with rice to eat. It contains various spices and has a fairly complex taste. It was my first time to eat this type of curry, but it was very delicious. (Original) 一口食べただけで体に良い食材で出来ていることが分かります。 カレーはスープ状になっていて、ご飯と混ぜて食べます。様々なスパイスが入っていてかなり複雑な味になっています。こういうタイプのカレーは初めてでしたが非常に美味しく食べることができました。

  • 4/5 狩俣博 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Although it is good to be able to experience the food culture of South India, it is a restaurant run by Japanese lovers of India, so it may not be enough for those who want to enjoy the authentic taste, but once you eat it Maybe good. (Original) 南インドの食文化に触れることが出来るのはいいとしても、インド好きな日本人が経営している店なので、本場の味を楽しみたい人には物足りないかもしれないが、一度は食してみてもいいかも。

  • 5/5 Talese A. 3 years ago on Google
    Excellent South Indian Thali. Dosa wasn't available until the afternoon, 1500 I think. Maybe a little more punch, but since it's vegan and gluten free, it was friendly to the biome. Good atmosphere with 1930s music. Attentive staff. Staff were trained in Kerala as it should be. Wish my cooking was as good as this.

  • 4/5 sharath k. 1 year ago on Google

  • 5/5 Anmol G. 1 year ago on Google
    The food was delicious. Better than some of the meals I have had in South India itself. The flavours were perfect. 10/10 would recommend. The rasam was specially amazing.

  • 5/5 Sophie C. 1 year ago on Google
    I am writing this review as I leave this place. This place offers authentic southern vegetarian Indian food made by a Japanese chef. I was not so hungry so I ordered 2 curry lunch meal and I wasn’t sure what I would get since the menu did not say anything specific about curry but I was pleasantly surprised with every single dish on my plate. Everything was on point and tasted even better than what I had in India. I will definitely visit again whenever I miss my time in India. Masala chai was made from scratch as I ordered. DON’T FORGET TO TRY CHAI!!! Everything was fresh and flavorful like I was back to India. This place is only a couple block away from Kokusai street. A couple paid parking was also available near by.

  • 5/5 Hsuan H. 1 year ago on Google
    The food is fresh and tasty. There was only one staff member when I visited the restaurant so it took a while for the meal but it was definitely worth it. The restaurant is a bit small.

  • 1/5 rajchandran77 3 years ago on Google
    It’s says here closes at 8pm and I walked 3km to be here at 7.05pm and they told can’t accept as I was 5 mins late. Disgusting considering it’s a big Indian celebration today . NEVER COMING BACK

  • 5/5 David R. 1 year ago on Google
    I am not vegan, but I liked all of the food. This place has great tasting curries. Note that there is only 1 person running this restaurant, so you won't get your food as quick as in other places. However, it was worth the wait. The atmosphere is also very pleasing. I would love to eat here again.
