This is an outstanding family run restaurant serving traditional Goan dishes, set in the family ancestral home, which is a heritage property. The service is attentive, menu is wide ranging, and pricing appropriate. The delicious and carefully crafted traditional dishes follow closely guarded family recipes. We had a range of seafood dishes, and this was the best meal we had in Goa.

It was a delightful experience to dine at this gem of a place located at on one of the quiet alleys.
This restaurant is a small but a very lovely one.
We enjoyed the food, had a sea food platter and crab curry with some drinks. Service is prompt.
Restrooms are cramped and no parking.
But definitely worth a visit for the food and ambience.

What an awesome place!

I took 'Red Snapper Masala Fry' and I must admit that was the best Red Snapper preparation I ever had in my life! Little tangy, little spicy, very beautifully done! Then the Prawns Balchao was another yummy delicacy. All went well with the local brew 'People's Lager' beer! 🙂

The staff were extremely friendly and welcoming.

Highly recommended place for tourists 🙂

This is a lovely little family run restaurant tucked away in a discreet corner of fountainhas, some call it the Latin quarters.

This beautiful location has a distinct old world charm to it.

The food was fantastic, the service was good and the ambience was fantastic.

Items ordered: Chicken lollipop, squid butter garlic fry, pork salantule, french fried, seafood sizzler, orange honey chicken steak (slightly sweet-FYI), mackerel curry rice, seradura and coconut pudding.
Highly recommended: Squid butter garlic fry, Mackerel curry rice and serradura.

A nice, quiet restaurant to try out if you're in Goa looking for authentic Goan cuisine. This place brings the true taste of Goa to the table.
Walk a little bit around the old part of Panjim (Fontainhas) to get there.
Service was quick. Well priced for what it offers.
Sadly they don't serve beef which was a big disappointment to us as we went there hoping to satisfy our cravings for a juicy steak. Had to settle for a pork apricot steak which was pretty good too.
