The Leaf Grantham

Leaf is a wonderful little South Indian restaurant in Grantham. I'd read the good reviews, so decided to give it a try. And I'm so glad I did. I decided to try a typical south Indian dish that you don't get in the typical North Indian (or Nepalese) restaurants. So I went for a Masala Dosa, which is like a giant pancake with potato & veg curry inside. This comes with a vegetable curry sauce and coconut chutney. It was AMAZING. I'm a carnivore, so was a bit hesitant that there wasn't meat involved, but what can I say? It was delicious. Give it a try. To top it off, the service was excellent too.

Very quiet on a Thursday night. Lovely service from our host. Decent bottle. Merlot for reasonable price. Never eaten kerala food before. Found it beautifully cooked spices we're spot on. We shared squid to start, delicious. Partner had kerala chicken and I had the goat curry both were tasty. This place is well worth a visit. If I was local thus would be my go to curry house. Thank you for a lovely meal.

Just to start off by saying, Indian food is not all about chicken tikka masala or meats drenched in oil/thick gravies. Indian cuisine is diverse and the country offers a large variety of dishes to suit all tastes! The south tends to be associated with more vegetarian dishes and fewer oil drenched gravies/curries. As someone of South Indian origin, I am always on the look out of our traditional cuisine and this restaurant certainly offers it. The only downside is the slightly smaller takeaway portions of the meat dishes but otherwise I would certainly recommend the food here!

Absolutely love this place, been going since it very first opened, fantastic food and service, real shame its never been very busy when we go, but we do eat early! Everyone we've recommended it too have also been very impressed! Only downside - an inside loo would be great, but for anyone whose ever visited India, it just adds to the authentic experience 😄

Fabulous valentines meal. Delicious home cooked style cuisine from kerala goa cuisine. Great value 3 course menu for £21 pp - excellent value filling our tummies from heart ❤️ felt cooking . So different it was a hidden gem. Well done to Rama boss and manersha both delivered homely hospitality from a passion to make everything enjoyable and it was, they really cracked the valentines night, with every table full in restaurant. Wonderful atmosphere. We will return definitely Nikki and Andy thanks to chef and all of you for making it special with a free rose and special effort making attention to detail, a nice touch making you feel relaxed and an easy restaurant to enjoy as a calm atmosphere. Blessings 🙏❤️❤️

We were pleasently surprised to find this lovely restaurant open at lunchtime, we had biryani. The food was delicious, the staff were very polite and excellent service. The menu had lotts of quality dishes to choose from and for those wanting to know, they also have a Christmas menu and a Christmas day menu with more seating upstairs which can be space for special parties and bookings. Thoroughly enjoyed it and would rate the restaurant highly. Its great to know there's a restaurant to go to that serves indian food as an eat in restaurant for lunch time. Beautiful decor and a lovely restaurant. Thank you
