Review Earthen Oven - Candolim

Rohit Gupta
We landed at Indian Oven just by chance. We had gone out to have dinner and were in a mood to try something new. It was raining that evening and we were getting a bit hungry. I did not had the nerve to locate so called popular restaurant and choose Indian Oven as it was just next to the road. It is located in Candolim towards Fort Aguada. We were well supported by the staff there to park our car. We parked our car practically on the Road! The restaurant is a part of the resort (Acron Seaway Resort). There were few guests who were probably staying with them. The restaurant is not a fine dinning restaurant. Though the dining area is air conditioned. We were told they also have option to sit outside in the open but as that evening it was raining they had removed those tables. We ordered Blue Lagoon and Virgin Mojito for the drinks. For the food we ordered Chicken Pasta in Red Sauce, Awadhi Nihari Boneless Mutton, Lacche Dar paratha and Roti. We really liked the mutton. It was one of the best that I had enjoyed lately. Rest of the food were also delightful. One area that the restaurant can work on is respecting their own menu. Many of the items which were mentioned in the menu was not available. They do not serve Beef or Pork. The staff who was serving us was helpful and prompt. If you found the review useful do give me a thumps up!

I have been to Goa several times but I had never heard about Earthen Oven until a friend invited me there for dinner. And boy am I glad. Earthen Oven is one of the best if not the best North Indian restaurant in Goa. It’s in Candolim and is very near to all the major hotels in the area. Earthen Oven has an exterior dining area and we chose to sit outside. We had ordered both veg and non-veg and the food here was delicious and the portion size was also adequate. Coming to the staff, the staff was good and well mannered. They were cordial, polite and respectful. I was in a group and we all had a good time. Everyone loved the place and the ambience and the food and I’m definitely coming back here on my next trip to Goa.

A restaurant that I visited twice during my stay in Goa is Earthen Oven. Since it was within walking distance from where I stayed, it was easy to visit this restaurant. This place offers indoor and outdoor seating. The ambiance of the restaurant was pleasing. There was a nice murti of Buddha inside the restaurant. You can also see chefs working through the kitchen window. They claim that they are the highest rated North-Indian restaurant in Goa. After my first visit, I couldn't stop myself from visiting again. During my first visit, my order was for a Tandoori Subz Platter, Water Melon juice, and Kulfi Falooda Ice-Cream. The platter was an assortment of vegetarian kebabs served along with mint chutney, and some salad. It was delicious, and that was all I had for my meal because it filled me up. The fresh Watermelon juice was a delight with each sip. The ice-cream taste good as well. On another visit, my order was for a Subz Dum Biryani, some Rotis, and Yellow Dal Tadka. The aroma of the Biryani was very appetizing. The vegetables were in their best texture. I enjoyed every spoon of it along with the raita. The Rotis tasted good along with the Dal Tadka. Their service was very fast during my visits. Their staff was courteous with all my requests and had a great attitude while attending my table. I felt that the pricing of the dishes on their menu is slightly expensive. But, the quality of the food makes up to the cost. After tasting their dishes, I would agree to their claim about being Goa's highest-rated North-Indian restaurant. I would return in the future and try other dishes on their menu. Do visit this restaurant if you're looking for some delicious North-Indian food in North Goa.

To start with, Earthern oven restaurant has a reputation of their own. It's a place which serves north indian cuisines. They have buffet of their own. The dishes served were awesome. The taste was on point with perfect spiciness and perfect blend of spices. The officials and the servers were too friendly. The place is too clean and best for family dining. We can have food in air conditioned room as well as have food enjoying the climate of Goa. As a visitor in goa, I enjoyed my experience there. I would recommed it to anybody who would love to have north indian dishes in Goa. Below are some of the images that i could take there which might give you a small idea about the place.
Harish Babu
Nice North Indian food. Limited seating and limited menu but the taste is good. Both AC and outside sitting space available. Staff have been very helpful.
Yunus Ahmed
Well, The ambience will blow your mind. The food here at the buffet is mouth watering. Chef Pankaj has done a really great job by cooking such a delicious meal. With lots of starters and sides it's great personally me and my friends enjoyed it! On Fort Aguada road.. Stop by to experience the amazing food!
Nitin Saraswat
It is a good restaurant in Candolim. Situated on the mail road. Open space is also available for sitting & dining. Tamatar Shoraba is must try.

Its awesome. I just loved the breakfast at there. There is lots of items at there for breakfast. We have North Indian cuisines, south Indian cuisine, british cuisines at there. We have varieties of beverages for breakfast. My favourite was the "sunny side up" omelette and the coffee. ❤️
VIKAS CHOUDHARY
Exellent staff ,best food ,super fast service and over the top they take very good care of your emotions. I visited this restaurant again this year from 26th may 2019 to 2nd of june 2019. Must go to eat with family in candolium.Must try boneless butter chicken.I will recomand Ajvyni paneer plain ,its very yummy my wife and kids just loved it.
Kunal Verma
Nice place for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Situated on Aguda fort- road.
Rutuja Deo
Serves delicious food. Tried seafood as well as veg food both were delicious. Staff is very supportive and caring. I would like to recommend this restaurant to visit at least once.They provide buffet system and a la carte as well. It's near to condolim beach.
Chandramauli Suwaminathan
Had dined here as part of my stay in Acron Seawat resort. Breakfast buffet spread was decent enough however improvement needed in dosa and bakery items. Lunch menu was good and tandoor cauliflower was good option other than paneer. Courteous staff but for two days i saw lean staffing so when more tables gets occupied the orders were little delayed. Deepak was a wonderfull staff taking care of live counter orders when we dined for breakfast. Ambience was warm and little vintage look with modern artifacts also.seen. This is one of the highly rated restaurant in other food and travel blogs. Bar was decently stocked but no over the bar counter seating arrangement. Outside dining area is close to road could be noisier if there is congestion. Clean washrooms and parking is on the main road at your risk.
Nishank Trivedi
The food was delicious. The Methi Paneer, mushrooms etc were exactly what we were hoping for in north indian taste. Even prepared special starters on order. Very courteous. There was a live music performance (Rajasthani) which was keeping the mood lively. The overall bill was a bit of a surprise since we saw 22%vat added to the bill. but...can be overlooked

Arsh Dhuria
One of the top rated restaurent with bar in Goa😊<br/>...<br/>I was pleased with a decor , service and ofcourse with the food❤️<br/>...<br/>Good place for Groups and Couples to hangout❣️<br/>...<br/>Price was reasonable and quantity was enough😊<br/>...<br/>Things I Ordered:<br/>Starters: <br/> 👉🏻Ajwaini Paneer Tikka<br/>Main Course:<br/>👉🏻Paneer Khurchan❣️<br/>...<br/>And Some assorted breads❤️
Rahul Dutta
We ordered around 7 dishes and a few naan. Everything was pretty average to be honest but we had a big day so we were enjoying the food (not the taste) . I asked the waiting staff to get me some more naan bread and We were told that tandoor is closed ! WTF! They didn’t even tell us if they taking the last order otherwise we would have ordered all together. They wasted around 30 min on top explaining why they can’t turn on the tandoor. I told them that i wont pay a penny if i don’t get extra naan to which they got afraid and at last gave us 5 naans. By the time curries were cold. Had a terrible experience and never going there again.
Varun Sharma
We visited Earthen Oven after reading the reviews on Zomato, eazydiner and other online sources.<br/><br/>People have mentioned that it's the best North Indian restaurant in Candolim but trust me it's just average.<br/><br/>The place is good, staff is very courteous and have both indoor and outdoor seating.<br/><br/>SUCH A BIG RESTAURANT HAS NO PARKING FOR THE CUSTOMERS. When we found a spot in their small parking lot (can accommodate only 2 cars and 1 was already parked), the security guard didn't let us park there stating that it's only for the owner.<br/><br/>Food- 3<br/>Ambience- 4<br/>Staff- 5<br/>Price- high for the food that they serve<br/>Parking- 00<br/>
Saahil Sachdev
Great place for north Indian food, their menu is not updated (little lazy people) i tried their butter chicken very good if compared to others and their naan portion is small
Rishabh Singhal
Good food.......good ambience.....friendly staff.<br/>A good to visit place in Candolim.<br/>It was pretty crowded.......we tried paneer with rotis and it was damn delicious......portion size was pretty huge....order judiciously
Yashender Kumar
excellent food, enjoyed the live music also excellent services and on road which is best really loved the place recommend for families members
Dayna Patel
I have been to this restaurant for breakfast as well as dinner. Fine place at candolim. Food and service are up to the mark only they charge 18% gst( which is equal to 5 star hotel rate.) , currently 5% gst is applicable on restaurant in India. Over priced menu. Ambience is quiet good. I would hope for the moderate rates on regular north and south Indian food.
Nags Akkinapalli
Service was good.we started with tomato soup which was good ..in starter we ordered ajwani paneer tikka which was very flavorful..in main course we ordered paneer khurchan and mirch Ka salan..the only disappointment was mirch Ka salan it was too tangy and it was not an authentic salan preparation.. overall the food was good with variety of vegetarian options.
Foodtalk
It was my first visit to the restaurant and I was blown away with hospitality. Everyone wished good evening. It's located on the main road and easily locatable. It has two dining areas- with AC and non AC. Non AC area had glittery decor. Few Rajasthani folk dancers were performing too. It caters both to buffet and a la carte menu.<br/><br/>What all I had<br/><br/>•Tandoori Sabz Platter<br/>•Mix Vegetable Stuffed<br/>•Kulcha Paratha<br/><br/>The dishes tasted delicious and were presentable too. I liked the way they were served. The only concern in platter was small portion.<br/><br/>However, the hospitality was just fabulous. Thank you team☺<br/><br/>Taste: 4/5<br/>Presentation: 4/5<br/>Service: 5/5<br/>
Bhasskar K
One of the best north-Indian restaurants in Goa and it is great. The place is quite till evening the on there is live music being played. Good ambience!
Aakanksha
The atmosphere here in earthen oven is full of life. Grab the outside seating area and enjoy live Rajasthani music and dance performance. Now coming g to the food, well the menu is simple and includes both veg and non veg items. Fast service, professional staff, open tandoori kitchen add points. The food was delicious and quantity was overwhelming. So go here enjoy your food, drinks with lovely music.
Deepti Vohra Sethi
Visited this place earlier 2 years back and honestly food was awesome and had same expectation this time too. Ordered the very own Dal makhani and butter Naan. It was not the same this time. Came to know later that the chef which they had left.<br/><br/>:-(
Yash Khowal
It says the best rated North Indian food in Goa <br/>And yes it totally lived up to its expectation <br/>The ambience is amazing <br/>Staff is very hospitable <br/>There is live Rajasthani music <br/>Food is amazing <br/>Ordered paneer khurchan and dal makhani <br/>Dal was absolutely mouth watering <br/>Totally worth going if u r craving some North Indian food <br/>
Ruchir Sabharwal
One of the best North Indian Food with great environment in Goa... Good Service .. There was nothing that I could complain about.. Highly Recommend
Rahul Dutt Sharma
Great place to be with family if you enjoy Indian cuisine. Food is good location is great and the ambiance is also very welcoming with live Rajasthani music 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Anubhav Gupta
A special place loaded on the candolim main road, with highest level of hospitality.<br/><br/>Every body makes sure your evening is made special.<br/><br/>Food is also Good and most of the people dining along were foreigners.<br/><br/>We ordered some of the dishes and must try stands: Panner tikka (2 varieties they have)<br/><br/>Food-9/10<br/>Ambience -9/10<br/>Service-9/10<br/>Price-8/10<br/><br/>Recommendation: Must visit fine dining place when in GOA..<br/>
Abhishek Chowdhury
Checked the recent reviews and I was put off in trying the buffet. Decided to try the best seller Tandoori Aloo and it was not really Tandoori Aloo. Some stuffed potato dish was served which was not really hot and extremely average<br/><br/>Not 4.1 status at all
Nikhil Burreja
Not recommended for buffet. Totally disappointed with the menu and the staff.<br/>Ambience is ok types with live folk music onn which will help you actually to digest your food.
Pallav Choudhary
During my stay at fortune acron Candolim , I opted this restaurant for dinner with my wife. Ambience of restaurant and hospitality by staff was great but what disappointed me was the food. Me and my wife opted for buffet here and the food was not at all upto the mark. Only think in buffet was good was their rice kheer but other than that no food placed was good and the biggest disappointment was zafrani chicken biryani as it was just biryani with lots of spices without any fragrance and taste. I will not recommend this restaurant for buffet menu at all.
Abhineet Rajvanshi
Amazing gesture from staff. Delicious food and warm hospitality. There are so many restaurants in this area But only few give this positive vibes. Food quality very good I tried only vegetarian so another viewers may or may not much agree with views. Ambience is 10 out of 10. A very serene and well maintained place. Lastly hospitality is personally attended and taking feedback about the food is well intentional. I really like to come back and try their buffet sometime soon.
Sunil Verma
Too much expensive. For eg. Raan for Rs1690 + taxes worth not more than 800. What rates mentioned on zomato menu and what they presented was like 50% extra. Our bill shud be Rs 2200 aprx and came out Rs 3340.<br/>Fooling around on pretext of home delivery
Prashant Chaudhary
I went there for dinner after reading good reviews on zomato. The rating given on zomato is no where near to the actual food quality. It shouldnot be more than 3 as food over there is quite ordinary. Tasteless and poor presentation.
Rushin Shah
Food and quantity both is good and food is good enough but their staff is extra ordinary..!! One more thing that we went for dinner and we were inable to find the taxi, so they help us to reach at our hotel also.!
Malvika Maulingkar
If in need of scrumptious north indian food and are on the beach belt of calangute this place fits the belt! The food is great, the ambience is lovely, service is quick and the staff is friendly. And the best part, they aren’t hard on your pocket😃
Rashmi Vittaldas Bhat
Had ordered for ajwaini paneer tikka, subz malai curry, yellow dal, biryani, rotis n gulab jamun. The food was very good. The ambience was very good too. Staff was very extremely good. Overall a good experience at Earth oven.
Flavorlover
Awesome ambience ...i felt like queen ... Very pleasing service .. food was awesome .. sea food is nice ... Love the ambience more.. full of goa n rajsthani fusion
Karan Das
As i was bored of eating goan cuisine too much, was looking for some north indian food to eat. Then i found earthen oven, which was one of the restaurant only serving north indian dishes.<br/>I orderd chichek seekh kebab ( juicy and full of flavours) , chicken tikka masala ( taste was not as good as i have eaten in delhi :p ) and butter naans ( which was butter tandoori roti)<br/>Service was good plus the food is also satisfactorily good.
Lucita
Tried this place to check out their north indian food. I was very happy with all the dishes we ordered. Very tasty and good quantity. Service was very pleasing along with good ambience.<br/>Ambience - 4/5<br/>Food - 4/5<br/>Service - 4/5<br/>Value for money - 4/5
Sharvan Kumar Kumawat
One of the best restaurant in candolim with sit down buffet, n offers best of north indian cuisine,<br/>Staff is very cooperative specially the bar man( avijit) and service men sushant & ashim this 3 people are very polite
Komal Ram
Food was super tasty. Dal makhni , pudina paratha and masala paratha every thing was too yummy. Service was also very good. Loved the place :)
Payal Parikh
This place was barely a 5 minute walk from the place we were staying at. One of the best place for really scrumptious North Indian cuisines in Goa.<br/><br/>Ambience: Very chic yet Indian. It has inside and outside seating.<br/><br/>Food: Very delicious. We went for Paneer Kurchan and stuffed Kulchas. Must haves.<br/><br/>Staff: Some associates serving the guests seemed very new with a little lack of knowledge. However each and everyone was extremely helpful and cheerful.
Tejal Bhagat
we had opted for Buffett and one of our friend a la cart...both were equally bad and spoiled a very good night due to bad dinner experience.
Garam Plate
Great place to try some authentic north Indian food. The ambience is really nice with a Rajasthani touch. USP of this place is their different varieties of thali. Best enjoyed when you are super hungry else chances of wasting food are high. It’s best enjoyed with a large group. They have live performances with a really nice buffet.
Abhay Amale
Nothing great about the place. Although the hoarding says the best North Indian cuisine in Goa, it's nowhere near that. An average place. The food was good.
Dinesh Sharda
Worst quality of food ever I eat. Service is so poor and staff behavior so horrible typical signs of tourist places person WHO BOTHER. SERVE NON VEG FOOD INSTEAD OF VEG WITHOUT ASKING WHAT WE WANT TO EAT. HOT SERVING IS COLD AND COLD SERVING IS HOT. I don’t recommend my family and friends to visit any fortune group restaurant.
Apoorv Pratap Singh
Well Zomato says that I need to be polite while giving my reviews but honestly I can’t. Worst food I ever had in my life. People who have given 4 stars should really think again and revisit their reviews.. Somebody like me would have saved his hard earned money. I seriously pity the chef or rather cook in this place. We order virgin mojito and couple of other drinks. They were ok types. Main course was - Awadhi Nahari, Yellow Dal, Breads and Paneer Khurchan. Everything was Yuck! No taste at all.. Paneer Khurchan was probably mixed with all the leftover spices if the day and was hard as rock! L I had such a nightmarish dinner. Please let us be honest in our review so that people’s hard earned money can be put to some better work than spending here.
Ashish Kasliwal
Excellent taste and by far the best North Indian restaurant in Goa ! The staff knows hot handle the customers and ambience was very nice. They really focused on taste and the price range is very effective compared to quality they provide.
Amandeep
Great food, murg zafrani, fish tikka masala and pudina Parantha are amazing.<br/>Ambiance is great with live rajhsthani singing and dance.<br/>A must visit. Special thanks to Mr Amit Roy
Sash
Had a beautiful dinner experience in ‘Earthen Oven’ while vacationing in Goa. Choose this restaurant based on reviews/ratings and I must admit it is a true reflection of this place. <br/><br/>Earthen Oven is rated as one of the best North-Indian restaurants in Goa. I found the ambience really nice with authentic north-indian (Rajasthani inspired) decor and we were lucky to have experienced a live Rajasthani folk-music singing and dancing performance ( check my pic). <br/><br/>They generally have a well priced buffet on weeknights, however me & my partner choose a-la-carte. We ordered —<br/>Mutton Awadhi Biriyani<br/>Murg Lasooni Tikka <br/>Saffron ras Malai<br/><br/>Every dish was made to perfection & the biriyani was something different from what I have tried. Flavours were subtle and aromatic with meat cooked to perfect tenderness, so that it melts in your mouth. Lasooni tikka was amazing as well with garlic infusing your taste buds. To end with there can’t be a better dessert than cold Rass Malai melting in your mouth. <br/><br/>Highly recommended if you are in Candolim area of Goa. <br/>
Neha Thatte
one of the best places to eat north Indian food in Goa!! We reached at almost closing Time but still the service and food quality was upto the mark, they also have buffet, do try!!
Mandeep Kukreja
This place is on on the main road. We chose to sit outdoor.<br/>We had Chicken Tikka, Tandoori Broccoli ( specially made for us) , Nihari Gosht, Laccha paratha.<br/>Ambience was ok nothing special or great.<br/>Food was amazing.<br/>Service was fast.<br/>Staff is very courteous.<br/><br/>will I visit again: yes for the food
Durga Prasad
I went to this restaurant last night with my friend which is located at beach side of candolim.<br/><br/>Ambience is pleasant with passionate indian live music.<br/><br/>We ordered non-veg buffet tastes good - every dish is delicious we can feel the taste of spices.<br/><br/>Service is speechless and yes we can hangout with family and friends too.<br/><br/>Thank you.
Avinash Himanshu
Earthen Oven is situated in just right location on the main road from Fort Aguda to Candolim .<br/>It has ample private parking space .<br/>The restaurant has indoor and outdoor siting both .<br/>The ambience is just perfect for an Indian restaurant in Goa .<br/>The food 🥘 is the best North Indian taste bud that can be fulfilled in Goa .<br/>Coming to the specifics in my 5 day trip , I had 7 meals at the restaurant and everything I had there made me come back the next time .<br/>The dinners have an extra entertainment quotient as they have a live Rajasthani singer and dancer which will make you feel happy .<br/><br/>
Priyanka Dutta
Really bad food. Havent had worse Dal Makhni ever. Mint Cooler was way too sweet. There are many good places on this road, Would suggest to try something else.
Shikher Jain
Pathetic is the only word for this hotel.<br/><br/>They spoil our whole lunch.We ordered north indian vegetarian food and got served non veg. After reporting this incidence, still they people don't take any responsibility and start ignoring it thinking a small issue.<br/><br/><br/>Don't ever try this hotel..not recommend to anyone. If any doubt call at 8295942849
Gaurav Agrawal
Food great staff very generous .... Atmosphere Awesome ..... Entertainment taken care by them like Rajasthani Dance And various other activity during nigh out dinning
Gaurav Tandon
Very Disappointing — drove all the way from Arapora basis Zomato ratings.. food was below par.. the paneer was very chewy.. appeared stale.. chicken Khurchan was also extremely dry.. butter chicken was just ok hence the extra .5 points..finally they offered comp dessert which was good
Alven Baryawal
Doing a complete justice t the name of the brand, Earthen Oven serves North Indian cuisine is the most authentic way possible. We had Rara Mutton, with a select of assorted Indian breads. The Dish was perfectly slow cooked and the flesh was so well cooked and so full of flavors. The Paneer butter masala we ordered was also lip smacking. All the breads were warm and fresh.<br/>The desserts, were all also very much fresh and perfectly sweet. <br/>It took us a lot of restaurant brawls t decide who would get the last bite.<br/>Staff of the restaurant were good and did their jobs monotonously perfect.<br/>The cherry to the top was the Live Rajasthani music during the dinner service.<br/>If your tummy craves for those flaky indian breads and some rich thick spicy and homely gravies then do pay this place a visit.
Varun M.
Good food, very poor service. Bad management, they go bonkers with full tables... We waited for 30 minutes as proposed by them only to find they're giving tables to other people who are just entering. No management at all for people waiting for the tables. Not worth going again..
Viraj Goyal
Trusted place to have best north Indian cuisine in whole of north goa. Special delicacies which I would personally recommend would be chicken tikka masala, dal makhni and chicken briyani 😊
Mayank
Restaurant by Fortune hotels, this is a very sit down place. Ordered a veg tandoori platter, found it to be very average. Loved their Fenni mojito, a must try at the restaurant. Service is slow and could be better.
Sushil
Average food. Average price <br/> .....<br/>............................................................................................................

Went to Goa with Family, was feeling very hungry and being a North Indian Delhiite, badly needs the North Indian Cuisine, somebody suggested this restaurant "Earthen Oven" were having a good Indian buffet and also its near our hotel in Candolim North Goa, we freezed this place. Place was crowdy, waiting was going on after 20 mins, we get the tables, staff was courteous and was wearing a smile on their faces which was welcoming. They are having both the options Alcarte as well as Buffet, we opt for Buffet. Buffet was not that elaborated which we usually get in Delhi, having the options of only two starters Hara Bhara Kabab and Fish Fingers, both of them was Okay ish, had chicken biryani, salads, Dal Amritsari, Paneer Dish. Service was good. Overall a happy place, don't expect too much if you are a pure North Indian.
Ankur Agrawal
Food is good... If in Goa, one can try this for North Indian food. Initially thought of trying buffet dinner but didn't find it appealing so went for ala-carte. Dal makhnai was superb. Service was good. One thing to notice the attendant was not welcoming so thats something didn't go well as we were one of the first guests in the restaurant.
Salma Gitay
My attention was captured by the Rajasthani live performance and I thought of giving this restaurant a try. We ordered pomfret and prawns curry with white rice as the staff suggested. Prawns were really tasty.
Ayushi Verma
While holidaying in goa we were looking to try north indian cusinse for a change and this place happened to be close to our hotel.<br/>The ambience is good and the restaurant is easily visible from the main road.<br/>We tried the mint cooler which was refreshing. The paneer tikka masala was not upto the mark and the breads we ordered were to hard and chewy. Theu claim to be the best restaurant to offer north indian meal but its hard to believe this.<br/>Hopefully the other items on the menu are better.
Rajat Shukla
I became a big time fan of this restaurant especially Dal makhani. Our whole group enjoyed the dinner along with the desert. Awesome in taste and services.
Surabhi Jain
I had a quick lunch here before taking my flight to Delhi. It is a nice, cosy place serving tasty food. I tried mint cooler which was refreshing and I also tried chicken biryani which was also nice. Good food, good service.
Saif Nalband
One of the best place to have North Indian food<br/>Veg and non-veg both are equally good<br/>It has a great ambience with option to sit outside<br/>The live performance of folk songs really make this place lively..<br/>Do try buffet dinner with cost around 500<br/>And highly recommend is non veg kababs especially mutton
Venkatesh
Great ambience, nice staff good food collection but less could have been more louder for indian palette and roti preparation could be better.<br/>Amongst the good restaurants in Candolim.
Nikhil Bazaz
After having all sorts of cuisines for 3 days, it was a nice break to eat North Indian at Earthen Oven.<br/><br/>It is Conveniently located and offers decent North Indian in fact one of the best in Goa that I have had. <br/><br/>Has indoor and outdoor sitting options, we chose indoors because of the afternoon heat. The place was very much empty during lunch hours so we got undivided attention of the serving staff.<br/><br/>The only and major drawback of this place is that it does not have the Goa vibes, eating here won't make you feel like you are in Goa, its made like any restaurant in northern part of the country. They should work on the ambience and make it Goa friendly I would say.<br/><br/>My picks:<br/>Paneer Tikka<br/>Tomato Shorba<br/>Dal Makhani<br/>Paneer Lababdar<br/><br/>Overall a nice place to have North Indian in Goa.
Shubham Gupta
At the entrance of this restaurant, they have mentioned it to be the No. 1 north Indian restaurant of Goa and having eaten their twice I can definitely say that it's TRUE!!!. Superb North Indian cuisine topped with brilliant seating arrangement both indoor and outdoor, super courteous staff and great decor and ambience sums up this restaurant at Candolim Beach road. <br/><br/>Ordered Paneer Khurchan, Dal Makhani for the main course. Paneer Khurchan is worth a mentioned. It was super delicious and I ordered it again when the second time I went there. <br/><br/><br/>For starters we ordered the veg kebabs and it was good to taste too. The service is super quick. If in Goa and wanna have a north Indian cuisine, this is a must go place, Hands down.
Akshay Agarwal
Top class hardcore North India n Frontier food in Goa awsum too eat dal starters snacks everything is good great awsum paneer tikka biryani and kebabs
Shruti M
We were really tired of having continental food on our last trip to Goa and were seriously craving for some real North Indian food and that took us to Earthen oven.<br/><br/>This place has real warm ambiance, the right mix of ehnic and western decor, the staff makes sure you are truly comfortable, there is also live music in the evenings. <br/><br/>Coming to the food, it was authentic North Indian with just the right blend of everything, we ordered Tandoori sabz bagh, Tandoori roti, Paneer khurchan and Veg biryani. Our plan initially was to keep it light however the food was so good that we ended up over eating 😋. <br/>What I really liked about the place besides the food was the service and behaviour of the staff. Would surely visit again on my next trip.

Pretty okay taste. Nothing special really. Their buffet is very limited on dishes offered. Even lesser for a vegetarian. The roti topped with cheese and tomato ketchup was disaster on taste buds.

What was amazing - staff, service and attention <br/>What could have improved - we took dinner buffet, food was good but variety was visibly missing. They should include more dishes but I can go there again <br/>

Ordered north indian food for delivery. The food was tasty and value for money. Dal Makhni and paneer were up to the mark. The breads also did not disappoint at all.

Me and my wife looking for a family restaurant around candolim beach and we saw earthen oven with light dim lightening and live folk music. We decide to go there and have dinner. We ordered dal makhni, veg.biryani with cheese balls, vegetable raita and at last shahi pakodi(dessert). All were really very awesome, delicious and mouth watering. Dal makhni was little spicy with full of flavours. Quantity of veg.biryani was enough for two. And about shahi pakodi-delicious. Love to have it again and again. Staff was very good and very energetic. I highly recommend this place. And I love this place. Should visited restaurant in candolim, Goa.

We visited the place for lunch and it wasn't much occupied.A lazy waiter told us that it will take 20 mts for the food to come in as it is prepared fresh..We wondered how they work when it is fully occupied!!The paneer tikka was average and the chef goofed up with the butter chicken sending us the boneless variety.The waiter meanwhile wasn't clearing the clutter and not serving us the mandatory onions pickle and chutney which is north indian fare..The tandoori Roti's were taking their own sweet time to come and by the end of it we wanted to go and the waiter too wanted us to go..Altogether not a pleasant experience.Here is my advise....<br/>while in goa stick to local cuisine..<br/>

Recently visited Goa and happen to visit the restaurant.. considering it was "north Indian" went by trusting the name! However was disappointed overall. The food is okay, ordered RARA Gosht and all we got was 3 bones and one mutton piece. Not sure why would anyone like that! The restaurant's service was bad!! Not attentive and waiters were least bothered about your needs or timings of food. Hadn't finished the starters and main course was on table, when asked for some Ice in juice as it was "hot" juice, the looks shared by the waiter were sad enough to spoil the mood. Overall think twice before going here.

Food is not good very bad service price is very high don't waste your time having food hear it's not hygiene I order sea food & found fly in it. I inform the restaurant person. But no action taken

Horrible tasteless overpriced food. I ordered a mutton nihari, dal makhani and a firnee... I got dal makhani, tasteless nihaari and some yellow goop called firnee. The only good thing about this order was the dal, onions and lemon. Wish I could get my money back. Ordering from this supposed North Indian restaurant in Goa is like ordering Chinese food in an udupi restaurant (which sometimes is better than what I ate here)

Went here with Family for lunch. They have limited indoor seating which is air conditioned. To avoid waiting we opted for outside seating. Service was decent. I found it heavy on pocket and preparation portions were not great. I guess this is how far you could get with North Indian food in Goa.
Anand Kanwar
Overrated. Food is just OK but service is really lax. Unclean dishes are not cleaned even with all servers passing the table, no eye contact with servers and just generally poor.
Wanderlust
It's a good place ambience wise ..there is live rajasthani dance and music to keep you entertained.food quality is also good..but they have very less options in veg section.
Vijay Karnik
This place is mainly for North Indian food. They had recently started buffet dinner. There was a live music and dance which was lively. Food quality was good(cannot say excellent though). Service was also good. They need to improve on the selection of food in buffet.

Blissful experience..😇😇<br/><br/>We visited ṭhis place on holi for lunch..the place is simple and sober..ambience is good..very courteous staff..<br/>We ordered couple of starters..both were very delicious..even the mocktails and ice tea were very refreshing..must try..<br/>In the main course, laccha paratha is a must try along with dal makhni..<br/>We would definitely want to visit this place on our next trip..👍🏻👍🏻

One of very few places that I know off who serves good Indian food for a change, had live dance and music performance to keep the guests involved and entertained and good food which is reasonably charged for. A must visit for all food lovers, good ambience , good service and value for money tasty food.

A good place to have north Indian food. We were really hungry when we reached here and the Dal makhani was a total winner. The naans were good. Paneer Khurchan was mildly spiced. They had live Rajasthani music and all which was good. We ended with some jeera rice which went well with the Dal Makhani. Overall a good place to have vegetarian food...in case you are looking for one in Candolim.
Jannat Sandhu Malik
Food was good, not too spicy. Ambience was good with live folk music. The restaurant was priced very well, very good value for money. All alcoholic drinks were very well priced .

Tried non veg kabab platter, chicken dum biryani and murg khurchan. All dishes were yummy. Good food overall. Also loved the dessert menu, especially the rabadi.

Best authentic north indian food in Goa. The tandoori platter and Dal makhni are to die for. If you are bored with the Goan , continental cuisine and want to have some authentic punjabi food then its the place to go. A little pricey but wot

Well this restaurant comes as a surprise package for people looking for north indian food. Food is awesome and the staff is warm. Atmosphere is too cool and the rajasthani folk music is truely entertaining if you are sitting in outside area. Aatish-e-aloo and dal makhni are too good. We visited twice this restaurant in 3 day trip and the taste buds got extremely satisfied . Must try 🤘
Vastu23

A wonderful place to go with friends. The ambience is one of a kind. The tandoori chicken was just mind blowing and also a special mention for the lassi.. just awesome.. :)
Saikat Biswas
Very nice food, huge possibility of encountering a celebrity. Must try resto-bar. Superb non veg dishes and don't forget the desserts.Reasonable price and may one of the best restaurants in town
Divya
Amazing authentic Indian food. Their chef Pankaj made yellow dal tadka on request and it was brilliant! If you are looking for light on tummy, good Indian food, definitely try this place.
Mrunmayee Sabnis
We visited this place to celebrate my husband's birthday. The ambience was great ! We chose to sit outside where some folk dance was happening. The staff was nice. He suggested some good dishes. Do try the tomato shodha, by far the best dish we have tasted in goa. The chef comes to your table to personally ask your opinion. Food was finger licking good. They also gave us a dessert on the house when they got to know about the birthday. Overall it was a great experience.

As one raised and reassured by exorbitant rates of alcohol, I was very pleasantly surprised to observe that this ITC property was offering their entire bar at throwaway prices! The Ra Ra Gosht was tender, however I wish it were tastier. The lentils were the usual fare. Their breads were, to be honest, better than their sauces. Service is slow, but sweet. The green salad arrived at the end of our meal! The drinks were prompt and so was the rest of the food. The indoor ambience is sedate and comfortable. The outdoor area seemed to be the more livelier part of the restaurant. <br/><br/>Overall, since the food won the approval of a Delhi-foodie, it is only fair that they should be commended heartily for serving near authentic north Indian cuisine in a far-off locale such as Goa. Worth a try if you are feeling nostalgic or homesick. <br/><br/>:)

Awesome experience!! Mouth watering food with an excellent ambiance..just love this place.. Overall very nice place.........................

This restaurant never disappoints us. It's neat and clean, food is tasty. We ate their home style chicken curry (it's not on the menu.. but they will make it on request). It was the best home style chicken curry we have had in any restaurant!
Varun Saraogi
Awesome...its been run by fortune hotels group...had veg lunch at 5.30pm and the whole place was empty but still they gave such a experience...without any fuss...
