Look at the view and foo quality is the best whole Goa . Friendly staff. Room service and room cleaning so very well. Location so adorable. I will ordered the prawn masala & Chapli from kebab and pasta. Perfect match in the ingredients. Special thank you for Chef Gopal Krishna Sahoo. He’s give us a great hospitality

We came to this place after reading the google reviews and wow we were blown away! This place shines in Goa as a dependable restaurant with great hygiene, stellar service and a delicious feast to the taste buds. The high quality of ingredients used is evident from the food preparation. Special shout out to the butter naan we had, hands down the best naan I have every eaten (I have dined at my share of upscale restaurants and yet this stands out) This place is on the pricier end, but totally worth bang for your buck!

The Garden Restaurant in Goa is a real gem. The food here is top-notch, and the chef knows their stuff. They whip up dishes that are a burst of local flavors, using fresh ingredients. Every bite is a taste sensation, and you can feel the love for good food in every dish. If you want a true Goan culinary experience, this place is the real deal. The chef's skills shine through, making it a must-visit spot for anyone who loves good grub.

Delicious food, lovely atmosphere, nice staff, clean, great attention to detail Only thing is that I would prefer to have a normal printed menu rather than the iPad menu really. That, or allow people to scan a qr to access the menu on their own device. The tablet wad a bit cumbersome and difficult to see the whole menu.
Atul Soni
ONLY The Best restaurant in South Goa with delicious food and ambiance. The energetic couple are doing this great.
Krishna Kumar
Nice ambience. I tried shaam savera vegeterian dish. It was good. If you like spicy food, I think it will be better to mention it to them.

Situated hardly 200 m from colva beach. Nice place for both Veg & Non-veg cuisines. They have a separate kitchen for Veg & Non-veg cooking. Their must try dishes are chicken ghee roast (a dish just started by them- not to be missed) , chicken tikka masala & palak paneer. The masala papad is quite spicy. They have their own grinding mill for the flour, so the rotis & parathas are fresh. The service is a tad slow. No parking in the premises, but plenty of parking near the beachfront. The owner is very friendly and asked for immediate feedback, a sign of a good restaurant.
Amogh Sail
What a great place. Ambiance 10/10 Live music with the violin artist is just add on the ambiance. Food quality and quantity wise is very generous. They have multiple options for veg as well. The details to food is awesome as we got smoked onions with paneer kadai which really enhanced the taste. Staff and service is fast and accurate, we orderd hara bara kebab as shallow fry. Service is fast and drinks are good. Had one of the best Long ice land tea. For couples you fell like you are on a date with small candel light on tabel.
Yatish Shingade
This is one of the best restaurant if you are looking for vegetarian options in Colva. Slightly overpriced but worth of trying if you are looking for North Indian food. The service was quick and obviously the food was delicious. The mock Tai’s and starters were delicious
Deepika Devarajan
Fantastic food in Colva beach..family friendly and nice ambience to relax and unwind away from the beach crowd. A must visit place if you are in South Goa
Tejaswini Nikhare
Food is really tasty here. We ordered veg biryani and Lasooni methi paneer. Both dishes were so tasty. Also they served garam tawa roti which is usually rare tos get in such restaurants. Really good option near colva beach.
Vyshnavi Dabbir
Food was scrumptious. They have a good spread for both Veg and Non-veg palates. We had Indian food and they have great choices. Loved the greenery around. Must visit if you are near Colva beach.
Lalit Choudhary
Best in class restaurant. Food is affordable and delicious as compared to other restaurants in the vicinity. You must try their Chicken biryani and crinkled fries. It was very tasty and smelled good. They also serves cocktails, beers, alcohols. And the atmosphere is really amazing. The staff taht serves food are true to their dress code. They wear kurta and are highly professional to their work. 100% recommended. You wont regret going there. Price for two : Dinner (800-1200rs) including 1 drink for each
Arsh Kaur
Liked their fries, soup and tea. However the fried noodles for soup were not upto the mark. It tasted bad. It’s good place to chill when around colva beach. The place is fairly priced.
Ankush !
Good Place to have Food... We had North Indian food for dinner and must say it was made properly., not extra spicy or bland. Prices are moderate too.. If you are staying in a nearby resort you can try this place for lunch / dinner. Recommend.<br/>Only negative - This place is mostly visited by Russians, owner and restaurants staff don't have a damn about Indians which I found quite weird. But apart from that Food is quite goooddd..
Akshmala Aruna Mengji
We ordered a chicken 65 and a schezwan chicken Fried rice. The chicken 65 was different from what I have had in many other places. Schezwan chicken fried rice was good.<br/>service could be better.
Aditya Tendulkar
°Polite staff ° ° Constantly supervising owner °<br/>°Tasty Starters°<br/>Loved the fish fingers , cooked to perfection and Chicken 65 , tandoori chicken marinated well .<br/>The cheese garlic naan was tasty too!
Shaun Windsor-Turner
Having been in India for nearly 5 weeks we visited the garden this evening and the food was exceptional! The staff were fantastic and overall it was a great experience! By far one of the best restaurants we’ve been to since we arrived 5 weeks ago! Really good value for money too with a meal for 2 including desserts and drinks for 1300rps! We will definitely be returning before we go home!
Ashutosh
Tasty north Indian food with very reasonable rate. Generally crowded, however service is quick. We visited there 3 times during our 2 day trip. Very near to colva beach but you don't get any sea view.
Anisha
Loved the ambience and the service.Tried the schezwan fried rice (non veg) and the king fish . Both were amazing. Biriyani needs to improve.Worth for the price.lovely Goan experience
Vagisha Sharma
We were here on the christmas eve 2017 and loved the north indian food.<br/>We ordered paneer kadhai and matar methi malai, and both were unexpectedly very nicely suiting our north indian palates. <br/>The only downside being the kitchen is out in the open which got really noisy and hampered the lice flute.<br/>We ordered banana split after that which too was delicious.<br/>Highly recommended if around in Colva.<br/>

I was staying near colva beach and the day i arrived I thought of trying some restaurant outside my hotel and found this place.I loved the food from the first day and ended up having breakfast and dinner from here till i left Goa.The below are the dishes which I have tried and a small description about them:<br/><br/>1: Chilly pork: This dish was the only disappointment because it has less of pork in it but the pork tasted good.<br/><br/>2: Chicken vindaloo and steamed rice: The first time I had it tears were rolling out of my eyes and the spice level was too high like the way it should be.But the next day i had cravings to have the same and ended up eating it for a straight stretch of three days dinner.<br/><br/>3:Fried rice and some curry(I don't remember the curry name): One of each would fill 2 people and the taste was great.<br/><br/>4:Banana pancake :This will be my forever favorite pancake if i come to goa.It had a nice filling of banana and the sweetness was correct<br/><br/>5:Bacon cheese sandwich:When i ordered just bacon I have felt the quantity is less but next day i ordered for this and it was yummy.The portion served will be a heavy breakfast to keep you fully energized in the morning.<br/><br/> The place is pocket friendly as well as your taste buds will be happy.<br/><br/>The best part of this place will be the owner who is very polite and friendly.If you meet her for the second time she comes and talks to you as though she knows us for years.I think she is the mighty reason for the success of this wonderful place.

Near colva beach it's the best place to have non veg food nice ambiance and good staff. Most importantly good taste food. It's actually the the taste of good time.
AZAM SIDDIQUI
The roof top restaurant here provides the best aerial view of the Colva Beach lane which is dotted with tiny shops. They do accept cards.<br/>Food quality and quantity is just to good.<br/>We went there on a full moon night and to see the moon gazing at us through the coconut trees as we dined was just heavenly.
Praveen Singh
If you happen to be near this quaint little restaurant, you must visit it for an experience that is beyond ordinary. The lady who runs the show is an extremely hard working woman, and we were really mesmerized by the whole ambience with live music playing right in front of us. The rains added to the whole aura. The food was quite good. The manchow soup was yummy and the chicken malai tikka was out of the world. Overall, our entire family had a great experience there.
Schaefer Fernandes
The ambiance is nice and the service is good. Must try the Indian cuisine and kebabs. Thier oriental food is not bad too. Good place for a quick dinner.
Chinmayagarg.29
Decent place with good Indian food. No great ambience. The rooftop pub is strictly avoidable with bad service quality. Poor quality liquor used in cocktails!
Kanti K. Dua
1 star for the staff named augustine, he just wasnt interested in serving customers told he had a big parcel to deliver i sat there for 45 mins. none parcel went. then he told one of the chefs is sick. <br/>this kind of staff is bad for business <br/>food is good but attitude of augutine is disgusting.
Ajit Balgi
Very good food off the tandoor and in general the North Indian dishes. The ambience is great and the service prompt. Open air but no mosquito issue like a few restaurants around which we wanted to patronize but had to leave.  Good place to be for a North Indian meal when in Colva.
Shweta Madhav M
Regular at the restaurant, since the early days....Quality and quantity both have been compromised...did not enjoy the food at all....owners need to get back to their old gracious self.<br/>
Bipin
Gracious host. Good seating. Music could be better. But then, great service. And menu is well priced and food is good. make sure you give this place a visit when around colva market. Recommend pork chilly, fish cutlets and the sizzlers.
Lavanya
Lovely host, lovely ambience and good food. All at a good price. We had enough drinks and food without feeling the burn in your pocket. It does not offer sea views, but makes up for it through it service. Only wish the beer was colder and music was better
Mithila Sarma
Restaurant is not far away from beach. We ordered for potato 65 which had a very good taste. For main course roti and paneer tikka masala were ordered. Roti was good but the main dish didn't impress us. Didn't go with the explanation given in catalogue. Ambience is good accompanied with live music. The restaurant people are more leaned towards foreign customers than Indians. Overall a good one but not the best
Нирупам Чаттерд&
No. 1 restaurant in Colva according to trip advisor. Mainly popular for Indian food. So I will suggest if you want to try North Indian food in Goa, please come to this place. Otherwise there are many restaurants which can serve good seafood with this price. <br/>Ambience : good (indianize)<br/>Food : average<br/>Price : slightly on higher side<br/><br/>Try or not : once, if you have no option left
JANEL BHARWADA
Service is too good! I was in goa for a month tried almost all places this is a budget place! Good food,great music and wallet friendly! Ambience is not that though!
Suprada Gurrala Alvares
This restaurant is a walk away from Colva beach. The ambience is simple but food amazing. Best known for its Indian food. Chicken 65, chicken tikka, paneer chatpata and chilly cheese naan are my favourites here. Bharwaan aloo is also super. The service is prompt and friendly. There's live music in the evenings. A must try place in South Goa for foodies who love to Indian food and tandoor.
Jose Filipe Alvares
On a friends suggestion, we reached this place. This place is located on your way to colva beach. The place has a decent ambience, with live music in the evenings. Since we were vegan, we decided to have the chicken 65, potato 65, paneer chatpata, peanuts masala, chilly cheese naan, Bharwan Aloo and veg manchow soup. All the dishes were delicious (a special mention for chilly cheese naan, which was too good, that we ordered one more time). The service is prompt and the place wasn't expensive at all (it was easy on my pocket, a sure value for money place). I would surely visit this place to try out their non veg dishes, sometime in the future.
Punyatma Singh
Got a chance to have lunch with my friends at this restaurant. I had my best vegetarian food in GOA. They provide nice chapatis during the lunch hours. Affordable, tasty and value for money. Even the non-veg food was good (input from friends). Ambiance is good and easily accessible, very near to Colva Beach. One of the best and pocket friendly restaurant in Colva Area.
Ketan Lolayekar
Little gem in colva for some Indian food.. Make sure you book a table in advance as its usually packed.<br/>Prompt and efficient service<br/>Loved the kebabs. <br/>The lamb rogan josh was yumm.. Super flavors and boneless chunks of tender lamb. Going to visit it often for sure.
#FoodFrenzy
This restaurant is located around 400mtrs from the colva beach. We went to this place after trying out a couple of beach shacks which left us disappointed. To our surprise this costly looking restaurant turned out to be one which serves best food in that area. We had ordered veg manchow soup which was just perfect, no excessive chillies added. I had ordered rice and shrimp curry which was very tasty and the quantity of rice was overwhelming. Overall, a very satisfactory experience. One thing about all these places in Goa, they do not serve drinking water unless asked. Not everyone drinks beer!!
Piyush Purwat
On 31st Dec, we were at Colva Beach & were in search of lavish restaurant with descent crowd for dinner. We got this one. This was having good ambience, nicely prepared tables & dim music. It consists of good variety of menu. Prices were little high.<br/><br/>We ordered mocktails- bloody mary & after glow, starters-hara bhara kabab, patato 65 & paneer chatpata, main course- Veg jaipuri, Paneer Tikka Masala, veg fried rice, jeera rice & dal fry. They are having ample types of nice rotis. Bloody mary was of tomato juice which I didn't like while after glow was unique in taste n was just awesome! I won't go into much deep for the other dishes but just wanna tell that all food which we ordered was great & toothsome. As per its reviews, service should be quick but it wasn't at my time.<br/><br/>In fact, its having great ambience, friendly staff, delicious food, good quality, ok service, Nice variety. Do visit this restaurant, I got best dinner in colva here!
Jessica G
Good food & huge variety to choose from.. pocket friendly prices, service bit slow when the kitchen is busy & crowd is high. Always buzzing with foreign customers. <br/><br/>I would have given a 5 rating if not for the lady at the billing counter. She is more friendly & courteous with the foreign customers than the Indian ones. <br/><br/>located conveniently near the beach.
Manoj Kaushik
Excellent food,live music and drinks at "The garden" ; loved the cocktails and excellent spicy vegetarian food. Also tried Goa speciality desert "Bebinca" with ice creams and will recommend it to everyone. The hosts are very nice and service is excellent, no doubt its the best rated place in tripadvisor using which i found the place. Thanks
Shailesh Yadav
Delighted food with great quality. Really enjoyed our dinner here. I don't know why much details are not mentioned by zomato, but we found this restaurant really good. Fest food with quick service and open kitchen. Initially we thought that it will be costly, but 200 Rs per person was really very cheap we found here. Doesn't matter whether you order veg or non-veg, everything was superb.<br/><br/>We ordered chicken biryani, veg xacutti, butter chicken and all the ordered item were awesome.
Aniket Dulal
In Colva as per me the best dinner we had it here.<br/>Excellent food and quick service, delivered in no time.<br/>Veg Manchow soup was very tasty.<br/>Staff and service is very good, I think they believe on "commit less and deliver more" funda. Food order closes at 11:30 sharp.<br/><br/>They have a bar in dining area as well as on first floor which was fantastic. First floor bar closes at 1 AM. Courteous staff.<br/><br/>Keep improving guyz.
Avadhesh Patel
It is a nice family restaurant near to beach (Not a beach shack). <br/><br/>Ambiance is good and you can find live music on weekend. <br/><br/>Food quality is good and they take feedback during dinner. Price are good compare other and drinks are reasonable too. . <br/><br/>This is a nice place to have dinner and had been twice there.
Saumya Omer
Hands down, the best dinner of my life. Taste that made us forget alcohol on the table!<br/>Everything we ordered was on the recommendations of the hotel staff, and we were NOT AT ALL disappointed. Now, this is going to be long, so make sure you have 10min on your hands if you are about to start reading.<br/>Starters :<br/>1. Fish Cutlet with Green Chutney : I don't eat fish, and this dish made me fall in love with the creature :D Made from Diana fish, the cutlets were perfectly soft and spicy. The green chutney to compliment the cuisine was heavenly! We ate more of the chutney than all people there combined would have ;)<br/><br/>2. Paneer Chatpata :<br/>Before you start cursing me for having Paneer in Goa, let me tell you that the dish was specially recommended by the restaurant owner. We took a leap of faith, and, we are not sorry.<br/>Melt-in-your-mouth paneer pieces, with the gravy so amazingly perfected with spices and salt! We actually took breaks between each bite to make it last longer :D <br/><br/>Main Course :<br/>1. Chicken Xacuti :<br/>The traditional Goan curry. Now, it's weird to have your chicken taste like coconuts, but this one will change your entire opinion on using coconut oil in food (targeting the northerners here). It wasn't that spicy, but that's the beauty of the dish. The chicken used was cooked to the perfection, the curry of the delicacy cherry on the cake. Go Goa!<br/><br/>2. Chicken Cafreal :<br/>This bad boy stole the show, without opposition! The look of it will make you akeptic about the taste. But once you dig in, it'll be hard to keep your hands off it! With a spicy chicken curry, the coconut-chicken preparation took the meaning of 'delicious' to a whole new level. One word to describe it? Exquisite.<br/><br/>P.S : With everything, their green chutney just made life better. We finished 6 bowls of it.<br/><br/>Overall : Your stomach will be filled, but your hunger will still linger.<br/>

An amazing dining experience on a lazy goan day.<br/>The live music was fun and full of zest...<br/>We ordered an array of dishes and with most of us being vegetarian. ..<br/>A hot & sour soup..was of perfect consistency and good flavours..a potato garlic soup. .could have been creamier. <br/>Starters ..we ordered paneer chiily dry- paneer was soft and was true desi chinese style. The aloo kebabs were well seasoned, tandoored and caramelised very well.<br/>For mains..we ordered the prawn sizzler. .well seasoned and portioned. Goan yellow curry and friedrice.. both well made with the perfect blend of spices <br/>The quantities were wholesome and the staff was courteous. <br/>A good experience and will definitely visit on our next trip to Goa.
