From Time Out Dubai Eating Out 2009

It may be tricky to find this place in the maze of Karama’s streets, but it is worth seeking out.

Go along at lunch time and you can gobble down the delicious curries and be thrilled that the waiter will pour you more from a huge, seemingly endless, vat. Keep it simple, and opt for the fish curry and chicken biryani, both of which are spectacular.

The fish curry may comprise only a small serving (one piece to be preciseof generic white flesh, but it comes with enough accompaniments to feed a small, hungry army, and, there are always the refills. The biryani houses delicately spiced raisins and vegetables and slow-cooked fall-off-the-bone meat. Finish off your tasty feast with fresh juices – try watermelon and mint or the mint/pineapple/yoghurt combo – and a rice pudding. It, like everything else, hits the spot perfectly.

Great Food at a very affordable price.... Each dish has its own special taste and flavour. I particularly loved the prawn in thick gravy.

We have been in dubai for the last 24 years and are proud to say that, never we had tasted such authentic and amazing food anywhere, whether its non veg or veg. every single dish tastes fantastic. our family liked the Non-veg Thali and the mutton biriyani and the fish mollugutathu the most. ofcourse every dish is authentic.
we salute the cooks behind the success .
Congrats keep it up Calicut Paragon.

Sunil & Family.

We have been visiting this restaurant for many times and the quality of food served has not changed (very very delicious).
We do recommend this restaurant for all those who wish to have a family get together. But better make advance booking as it is pretty full on week ends.
