    Thilakan stole the show.

    Though it was Dulquer Salmaan's first film as an actor, he didn't go with the typical mindset of Indian actors of introducing himself as an super hero or central character of any film (when he could do that). That shows his maturity and wisdom.

    There were many times when the viewers felt the central character was Thilakan and not Dulquer Salmaan. Thilakan sir again proved that with whomever he is acting, he will steel the show. What an actor .!

    I really liked the cute, smart Nithya Menon. Her Malabar accent was awesome.

    The rest of the crew also did their job fabulously. The background music was also very good.

    It must be the kind of masterpiece that every director and viewers dream of.

    I congratulate all the crew member for making the film such a huge success and wish them to always come with such ideas.

    Thanks, Sujith

    Excellent

    Ustad Hotel is a real treat for eyes, which keeps us engaged and makes our taste-buds come alive.

    The pluses include well crafted story line, with simplicity to the core, excellent background score and music, breathtaking visuals, and moreover, it brings out a valuable message.

    Dulquar has done a good job, and Thilakan stands out as Kareemikka, and kudos all the cast and crew members for giving such a wonderful experience.

    Overall I rate this as must watch and request Dileep and other mimicry artists to stop degrading Malayalam movies with films like Mayamohini, Pachakuthira etc, as this surely is the re-birth of Malayalam movie with a cry for quality and lasting content.

    Thanks.

    Food is complete only with Love!

    When the I saw the saw the first scene, I judged this movie to be another commercial movie. But everything changed in the mid way. I learned that Food is not just about filling the stomach but also filling your heart....

    I don't understand how he got girl! how the orthodox family accepted her to marry a cook...But still the Love is very different.

    The next thing that is remarkable is their Display of culture. I never saw these kinds of Dishes before (have to appreciate the Story writer's knowledge of culture and food).

    This a complete movie and a movie worthy of spending the time!

    The Best Indian movie of 2012

    This movie has absolutely everything you could want..

    engaging story, outstanding performances, and entertaining in every aspect. It has humor, sadness and drama, at the appropriate times, and performances without fault

    I like fairy tales, and this movie certainly is one. very first Rate Entertainment

    I had much expectations about this film where the director made 3 blockbusters and writer anjali menon is very very promising with her debut "Manjadikkuru" .. and the movie made my mind happy .it was a life time experience watching it on theater. This movie shows human relations very well.

    Dulquar Salmaan shows he is a star with his cool dude attitude .. excellent way of narrating and well crafted scripting .. the best parts are the background score by Gopi sundar and cinematography by lokanathan.

    I suggest everyone to watch this one .. Kudos to Anwar Rasheed the director and anjali menon .. a great step in malayalam cinema to the world .. brilliantly done ..

    I would give 10 on 10 fro Usthad Hotel !

    A good message given in the film

    Dulquer Salman has given a superb performance. An aspiring chef comes to his grandfather place and help him run his hotel. They want to give customers tasty and hygienic food at a reasonable price. The chef learns the main purpose of cooking thereafter. Heart touching ending given in the film.
