NALAAS South Indian Restaurant

Being fond of south indian cousins i’m very picky and can easily get offended by ‘non south indian food’ served under south indian banner. my experience at nalaas was extremely enjoyable in terms of both food, service and atmosphere. truly authentic south indian cousins at very reasonable prices with top notch service. 5 stars for both food and service, 4 stars for environment as you feel bit of squeezed in being in a very small place with people eating all around you with distance not more than 35cm. they definitely need to upsize their place. tips: 1. on weekends always book your table by calling them and avoid waiting for a table to be vacant. 2. there’s very limited car parking space in front of the restaurant which is busy most of the time but you can park on the side road and the road exactly opposite the restaurant (next to the chippys) free for 2 hours after 6pm. 3. if you’re planning to go there before 6pm you can park on side roads without restriction which are like 10 minutes walk from nalaas, i don’t remember road name but you’ll easily find them once you’re in the area. 4. try their south indian chicken chattender (or similar called) too notch yummy 😋

Best south indian food i have had in the longest time. set back a little from the road with a small sign, easy to miss. plenty of comfortable seating inside. very nice , typically indian ambience. high chair available. had the idli sambhar and the masala dosa and it was amazing. asked for extra sambhar, it was sooo delicious and some curd for the baby and they didn’t charge us for them. cash only so go prepared. lovely staff. would definitely visit again.

I like everything about this restaurant, starting from the lovely ladies to the drinks, to the starters till the main... just all, the food was really delicious pure indian 😋 👌 😍 i'd love to go there again and really recommend this

Amazing place for authentic south indian food. this was my first visit but surely not the last. we ordered paneer dosa and non veg thali. thali can be spicy if you are not used to spice of indian food but surely very delicious. it was the best dosa we have aten so far in uk. definitely recommended. jusy to add they served with desi ghee and gun powder separately which was plus point. only downside was they don't accept debit/credit card but still very nice place to visit and worth for money.

I am wordless to explain the service , food quality and taste of this restaurant...very lovely ladies service team managing the restaurant,very welcoming and very polite to the customers. this is my second visit, actually the taste and service bring me back here again. taste of the food was above my expectations and i do really appreciate the chef and team for serving tasty food in time,even if the restaurant is full. highly recommended for proper indian cuisine in derby. parking limited infront of the restaurant,other parking options available near by and restaurant deal with only cash please keep that in mind.. after all really enjoyed ❤️🙏
