Our latest curry adventure took us back to Kerala at Onam, located at Tooting High Street. The exterior of the restaurant features black and red signage with red and gold curtains, giving it a bold appearance. Inside, the cozy atmosphere resulted in a solid Venue Score of 7.1/10. As we entered the restaurant, we were pleased to see other curry enthusiasts already seated. The starters we ordered, including Vegetable Samosas, Poori Chana, Plain Dosa, Special Prawn Poori, and Ulli Vada, were all excellent. The main courses we tried, such as Lamb Rogan, Nadan Kozhi, Nadan Erachi, Nadan Chicken Biryani, Appam and Stew, Chef's Special Aubergine, and Chicken Madras, were also delicious. The sides of garlic and coconut parathas and coconut and pilau rice were a tropical addition. Our overall dining experience was excellent, with a Food Score of 8.1/10. The bill came out to £116 for our group, equating to £16.57 per person. Although there is a 50% off food offer with a Tastecard, we gave Onam a Value Score of 7.0/10. Overall, Onam has earned a place among the top curry spots in Tooting, with an Overall Score of 7.7/10.

We used the Taste Card to dine here and were pleasantly surprised. Onam represents a traditional Kerala diner and is decorated in such a way. Having never tried Kerala food before I was won over. The food was tasty, full of flavour and very reasonably priced. The service was also very friendly. Be warned, if you are not into spicy food ask what the mild options are. Our waiter was very helpful. I am a big lover of spicy food but my starter was particularly firey! But I was able to eat it all. Starters for me was Morra Porichathu an omelette with green chillies and spices. My main was Kappa Erachi lamb with tapioca and spices. Very tasty. A glass of house red was £3 and a Cobra beer was £4. Will return for friendly service and fast convenient, tasty food.

Tried a variety of dishes, all were delicious and nicely spiced. I've been to Banana Leaf across the road would say they're comparable but the bonus is Onam accepts Tastecard. Only negative would be it was quite cold sitting by the window on a wet miserable day, but it won't put me off returning.
