Authentic South Indian Food and best Dosas also good options under Indian Street style food.options. The owner is always present to ensure good service & best food served, I dined here on Saturday evening with my friend and we fully enjoyed veg & non veg dosa sea food platter pani poori & masala tea & coffee, staff v friendly I was back here after a few years gap but pleased with the quality of food and fully recommend. All our dishes were medium hot if you want mild or extra hot just explain and they will cater your needs. My small feedback to the owners, some beverage/drinks prices are well above average costs as compare to other local restaurants & Masala Tea at 4.50 per person certainly needs a review but overall very good food good service hence 5 start rating from us.

Our first visit with friends and we already want to go back again. The service was very friendly and attentive. The food was delicious. So many different flavours abs dishes to choose from. The menu is very different to many other similar restaurants, as they specialise in certain areas and cuisine. A must try if you are ever in Bedford.

Been to Cochin last week with a group of friends to have a party during evening.We ordered aloo bhaji, paani puri,aubergine fry and Dosa.All of them tasted so good and the portion size is more than expected. Dosa size is very much bigger than anywhere.Everyone enjoyed the food and all are very much impressed with the quality ,quantity and the service.Staff are so lovely and polite.Lastly we finished party with Cochin's house special yummy rava sweet(mango flavour) which is my favourite now.Only downside is ambience which needs to be improved.

We had such a lovely meal tonight 09/08/21. The waiter, we didn't catch his name, but he was so lovely and polite and really helpful and attentive. Perfect service, great food, very reasonably priced, we would go again! Don't be put off by the poor decor and outer appearance and go inside for some great food!!
