"Chacko has become almost like my personal canteen for Indian food. They serve authentic Kerala cuisine, rich in flavour, comforting, and made with so much heart. Every time I have friends or visitors from overseas, Chacko is always on my list. The food is incredibly delicious, and the warm hospitality makes me forget that I’m not home. I especially love their mutton and chicken dishes. They have different menus for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and everything I’ve tried has been consistently good. Even their breads are prepared in a way that’s uniquely yummylicious. What makes their food stand out is the generous use of high quality ghee, which adds that unmistakable aroma and depth of flavour. I always end my meal with their lassi, my favourite is the salt lassi. It’s refreshing and great for digestion. I’ve taken countless photos here over time, sharing just a few today because my iPhone gallery is already filled with memories from Chacko!"

"Had brunch with my aunt-in-law, who lives locally. We were very pleased with our food items, as well as the prompt and friendly service. Ordered some lunch take away items such as Thattu dosa and Kerala parotta with different condiments, Tawa fried fish, Kanaya squid pepper roast and egg biriyani; all of which were excellent. There were 2 tables when we got there at 10.45. When we left at noon, the restaurant was bustling and almost full. Will definitely return."

"I will forever choose you Chacko Chacko is more than just a restaurant to me; it’s where my soul feels at home. From the first Biriyani to every Parota since, I’ve been head-over-heels for their flavors and authenticity. But it’s their heart that truly won me over. After telling them they feed my soul, they sent me a sweet surprise. When I told them I loved them, they sent back a rose, a handwritten note, and a Gulab Jamun It brought tears to my eyes to realize that in this busy world, a business can still care this much. Chacko hasn't just won my appetite, they’ve stolen my delicate heart. Please support this beautiful place, they truly lead with love. Total flavor explosion! The Parota Banjir and Chicken Biriyani are top-tier, and the veg meals are hands-down the best I've had. Plus, the Injipuli was absolutely lit. Highly recommend!"

"Hands down This is far most the best authentic kerala food I've ever had in KL. We got their matta rice lunch meals and chicken kerala briyani, every bite of it transported us mentally to kerala hahaha. Will definitely come again frequently after this coz I loveeee kerala briyani. Also their poliche meen woww so flavorful . Price also reasonable. Only downside was since the place is kinda small, so the noise level is high with full occupancy."

On a previous trip, we also ordered grilled prawns and fish, very fresh and delicious! And always end the meal with bru coffee with fresh cow's milk. No sugar needed, thick and wholesome."

"If you are craving for authentic Kerala cuisine in the heart of Kuala Lumpur, Chacko Restaurant is definitely worth a visit. The restaurant brings a slice of South India to Malaysia with its bold spices, homely flavors, and warm hospitality. I tried their fish curry meal with Kerala red rice, and it was spot on – tangy, spicy, and comforting. They serve a variety of vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes, and the sambar, thoran, and avial reminded me of home-cooked meals. The ambiance is simple, clean, and family-friendly, with attentive staff. Prices are reasonable, making it a good value for authentic regional cuisine. Overall, a great spot for anyone looking to experience real Kerala flavors without leaving Kuala Lumpur."
