Festa is a restaurant located on Civil Line Road in Vazhakkala, Kochi. Known for its affordable menu, the eatery serves a range of dishes, prominently featuring Chinese cuisine. While initially celebrated for its focus on healthy options, it's worth noting that over time, more diverse items have been added to the menu, indicating a shift from their original offerings.

While some patrons have enjoyed the flavorful kababs and biriyani, there have been mixed reviews about other culinary experiences. In particular, some visitors have expressed concerns about certain dishes, highlighting occasional issues with taste and preparation, which could be off-putting for new customers. Despite these varied reviews, it's important to point out that feedback is outdated, with the most recent input dating back nine years. Updated information, such as current operating hours or changes in menu items, is unfortunately not provided by the establishment themselves.

The ambiance at Festa has been described as calm, which, depending on visitor preferences, might enhance one's dining experience. However, an evening visit on a typically busy weekend found the restaurant largely empty. This detail, though stemming from older comments, may still suggest that the restaurant's footfall varies considerably. Without current data from the owners, potential diners might want to approach this venue with a certain level of curiosity and caution to see how it fits their dining preferences.

Have been here multiple times. When they started operations they had only healthy dishes but slowly other items started appearing in the Meenu. May be out is difficult to survive in Kerala with only healthy items. Their kababs are great and biriyani is too good.

My mistake of the month.

Their special lighting attracted us. Got in and found a very calm and peaceful area. Almost all the tables were empty(8pm a weekend). We ordered chicken al-farm and butter naan.
They took half an hour to serve the food, and we were really hungry by then. Grabbed a piece of chicken and just before having it,I smelled chlorine in it. Everyone got the same smell and we couldn't eat a single piece. We complained , but they told they don't use chlorine at all. We asked them to taste th they didn't bother to do that too.

Never in my life I would suggest this restaurant.

Me and a dozen other people from work decided to have lunch at this place. These guys aim to surprise the customers (not in a good way though). Allow me to vent in the following list:

1. We ordered a beef burger, what we got was a chicken burger (Surprise!!) with stale buns. When we complained to the manager, he said that it was not their fault that "Bread World" gave them stale buns. I agree with him, Bread World ought to have told those guys to use the buns while Bill Clinton was still in office.

2. We ordered a "Surf & Turk" steak, the main ingredient being lamb tenderloin. What we got was a beef steak (Surprise again!!)

3. Now since we understood that these guys would just  keep surprising us, we decided to outsmart them by ordering a beef steak and then maybe we would get lamb or chicken instead. But they turned out to be smarter than us and we ended up ACTUALLY  getting a beef steak (Double Whammy Surprise!!)

4. We ordered a tandoori platter which turned out to be good (surprisingly). So, we decided to call for another platter, a Mediterranean one this time. The Mediterranean platter is essentially made up of tasteless kebabs and I'm still picking out the mint leaves from my teeth as I type this review

5. Finally, we ordered a few chocolate brownies... I mean, who could mess up ice cream, brownies and chocolate sauce? THE GUYS AT FESTA CAN! They used chocolate sauce just to decorate the sides of the plate but none of it on the ice cream or the brownie. Btw, the brownie was also probably made while Bill Clinton was in office.

The only reason I'm giving this place a 1.5 rating and not the lowest possible 1, is because they seemed to have almost got the Indian dishes right.
