I have dined at this restaurants twice already. This is not a common occurrence since I don't tend to go back to places I've been to unless I've been very impressed the first time. I tend to want to try new restaurants I've never been to yet.

On my first experience at this restaurant I found it to be a very interesting Indian restaurant. I've heard so much about Goa from my Indian colleagues that I was keen to try this restaurant out.

I was very surprised. It is a true infusion of Indian-Portuguese-seafood. The flavours were amazing and yummy. Parking was easy to find and a really nice boutique bottle shop is just down the road. The place is BYO and the service was good. I have no qualms about this place. I thought it was great.


The next time we dined here was to celebrate my husbands birthday after remembering the good food we had last time. We also liked the seclusion and location of the place. Everything was great. The waiters were polite and considerate. Food was great. The only problem I had of this place this time was the time it took for the food to arrive. We were slowly running out of conversation and ended up just staring at each other.

I also brought a cake and wine, all of which were served nicely. Even the waiter started off the happy birthday song for us. Price was great. Very good value if you don't mind the wait for the food.

Wow -- sounds great. I don't think I've ever has Portuguese-Indian food! I'll definitely be checking this one out.

I've been to this place only once and I remember the service being really good as well. I don't remember waiting too long for food despite the huge number of customers they had that Friday night. I also remember the chef is quite friendly and would sometimes take the time to speak to patrons.

Dear Maribeth

I am so glad that you liked the Indian cuisine. Regarding your comment on the wait before the food is served - Indian food takes longer to cook maybe that is the reason why they take longer to serve. Ofcourse it can be the service efficiency problem as well.

Enjoy your food. I really envy you for this hobby.
