Sanjeevini Restaurant - Trivandrum

This restaurant has moved to a new location where you can enjoy a visit without worrying about sand and debris commonly found in other restaurants. It is the only restaurant in Kovalam with a working Tandoor oven, which results in delicious food available whenever you desire. We have dined here multiple times and have always been impressed by the high quality of the cuisine. The owner, staff, and chef are all friendly and efficient. While many restaurants have been slow this season due to the pandemic, with travel slowly starting up again, we can all experience the best of what Kerala has to offer.

This restaurant was very near our hotel so we visited based on the great reviews. The food was freshly cooked and very tasty and the manager was very friendly. There is a small balcony to sit on but not a great view. The toilets were clean. Unfortunately wine has to be ordered in advance (like at all the non hotel restaurants in the area since western tourists have not yet returned in great numbers) and there were very few customers when we were there. Definitely worth trying though for the great food.

Its same owner and same cook but restaurant has moved from lovely location to first floor location with no atmosphere. When we visited we were only ones in restaurant. This meant no interaction with others customers which u always had at previous location. We visited twice during this 2 week holiday. Normally we would have visited 5 times. I hope they relocate or customers increase soon. I don't want to loose what is best food in area.

Sanjeevini has no longer got the fabulous location it had before it moved but the food is still amazing. Asharaf is in my opinion one of the best chefs around and now the Tandoori is open the choice of food is complete. One of our favourites is Prawn Malabar or Eggplant Bengal but all of the food we and our friends had was delicious. The new Sanjeevini is opposite the entrance to the Uday Samudra.Dont miss it

Last night, we enjoyed a fantastic dinner at this restaurant, indulging in some delectable dishes from Kerala. However, the highlight of our experience was the exceptional service provided by Madhu and the chef. We truly appreciated their knowledge and attentiveness. Although the restaurant is a bit off the beaten path compared to others along the beach, it is definitely worth the visit. Additionally, there is a lovely park located at the end of the street. Thank you for a memorable evening.
