Having lived in Bangalore for 3 years and being from the Goa the konkan cuisine simply agrees with me. Having passed Coastal Reef several times during my time in Gurgaon, I found myself here for dinner and all I had on my mind was fish.
If you go to a Konkan restaurant and not try the sea food then it is an act bordering on crime.
So let's get to it.
Coastal Reef is a nice suave restaurant located in Baani Square and the place has a nice decor and feel to it.
We started off with a Seafood Sampler which is combination of seafood and I was just mesmerized.
Prawns, Crab, Fried Fish and Squids. Yum, yum and yummm. Okay beware south Indian coastal food is suppose to be super spicy even by our standards so if your not one who likes things spicy let the staff know they will cater to your needs. That means that the food will still be spicy or else it wouldn't be authentic konkan cuisine but yes, they will take it down a notch like they did, for patrons like myself.
For mains we had the following.
Malabar Fish Curry
Chicken Stew
Malabar Mutton Curry
Malabar Fish Curry is Basa fish cooked in delightful yellow paste and it is just the best accompaniment with the appams that we had it with. You can also try the Malabar paranthas.
The Malabar Mutton Curry was amazing with the delicious mutton just falling off the bone and aroma just mesmerizing.
The star of the night was the Chicken Stew. This was by far the best Chicken Stew I've had in a very very long time. Not spicy and with a balanced flavour just blew my mind away. Amazing with the appams.
Dessert was
Semiya Payasam
Kesari
Semiya Payasam was Vermicelli roasted with ghee cooked in cows milk. Recommended.
Kesari was good if you really have a sweet tooth.
Looking for South Indian food and I mean food and not just Dosas and Idlis then try Coastal Reef. Just amazing flavours and great ambiance.
Go for it.
Thoroughly enjoyed the food. After shifting to the north, I have often been let down by so called 'South Indian Restaurants'. This place is as authentic as it can get. I will definitely go back and highly recommend. Its a no frill place. Decent ambience. Food just takes all the attention, as it should :)
We had ordered chicken 65, guntur chillimushroom, prawn chettinad curry, veg stew and appam. Chicken and mushroom starter as well as prawn curry were very tasty and we'll cooked. Veg stew and appam are average, can be better. Overall we had a great experience and will definitely order sometime again.
Parotha was yummy so tasy chicken chettinad was also yummy only spicy level is high overall gud packaging and fast delivery
The food is awesome. The place to sit and eat is limited to max 10 people. But the quality and taste of the food are awesome. As the name stands out, the selection in seafood is the good and excellent chef. Best place to visit with small group / better to order online and get delivered at home.
I loved my food from Coastal Reef. One of the best food outlets for seafood in the area.
Yesterday i ordered panner chilly the taste of the food was delicious i was amazed to see the packaging as well as panner chilly and i loved the south Indian foods i will be order nest time also...
Experienced this restaurant through delivery. The chicken ghee roast was spicy. Egg roast was good. The Malabar parotta was great. Overall, price wise it was a good experience. The delivery took 1:15 hours though.
I wasn't much familiar with sea food except the fact I knew was it should be less of a bone so I called the outlet as they were very helping in choosing over my type dish, aka less bone fish. It was really Delicious. Taste and quantity n all was good. Quarantine is full of surprises undoubtedly. Fishaddict now!
Sea food at its best. Their content over the prices they've tagged is sort of impressive over the quality which they serve. Quality I mean Taste. Rich gravy full of flavors is very rare indeed.Chicken 65 & mutton sukkha were also really good. An appreciation for fast delivery undoubtedly. Seafood never felt so good.
The place is small and dimly lit, but if you're a lover of South Indian food, this is definitely worth a try and you'll definitely have a different experience unlike that of a regular butter chicken and naan
Yesterday I have ordered chicken ghee roast
Its taste was so delicious
Well packed and designed
Good smell
Fastest delivery
They have so many Verity of food
Amazing
5/5
Very good sea food !! Definitely a must visit if you are craving for some good south indian sea food .. We went as a group for some munching but had a good meal !! They even listened to us for getting some fish for kids which was totally non spicy and as per our requirements. Loved everything..
I fall in love with this place everytime I visit or order from here.
They have the best chicken ghee roast and parotta. We recently tried the crab soup and the non veg platter. To my surprise the mutton was melt in your mouth awesome - 100% recommend. The crab soup was a bit spicy and not for the faint hearted but still awesssomee.
This place will serve you traditional South Indian non veg food
Service is quite good and taste is just fine!
Beverages menu can be expanded though, South Indian is not just about coconut water!!!!
Sitting area is bit congested but with a small group, it would be just fine.
Tried couple of food items, the best ones are mentioned in the pics
A hidden gem in Gurgaon for non vegetarian Indian costal cuisine!
It's a small and cosy restaurant with Excellent Service and similar level of good food.
Menu is large and has almost every types of southern non veg food, including Fish, Crab, Prawns, Mutton, Chicken and what not.
The restaurant offers Goan, Andhra, Tamil, Malyali cuisine. Right from Chettinad to Vindaloo, Sukka to Ghee Roast, each one has its unique taste.
Service is also fast and attentive. Although being small, it's a full service restaurant including finger bowls.
Menu prices are moderated and justified. Definitely a must visit place.
The restaurant has very tasty and authentic food, freshly prepared.
Ambience - 10/10
Food - 10/10
Staff - 10/10
Cold drinks are also served.
Must try items:
1. Malabar chicken
2. Chicken chettinad
3. Chicken 65
4. Parotta
5. Appam
Thank you for such a wonderful dining experience.
A decent place for costal non-veg food. We went for dinner and we were not very hungry so ordered rasam with papadum for starters and then Malabari Parotha with Guntur chicken.
The service was fast and the food was tasty. I would like to go there and try their other dishes.
The interiors are old and the seating is cramped.

If you're looking for authentic south Indian flavours this is the place to come. I have been here a couple of times and tried different things in each visit and I have to say that the thing that stands out is the food. Every item on the menu be it the Chicken Chettinad or the Kozhi Malli Saaru (Chicken Soup) or the Stew or the Paruppu Vada or anything really has its unique flavour and literally smells of authenticity. I can totally imagine that this is (more or less) how the food would taste had I actually had it in a restaurant in south India.
Even within this culinary goodness a few dishes stood out to me; I would highly recommend that patrons try the Kozhi Malli Saaru, appam and Malabar fish curry. Furthermore there is so much on the menu that you can easily visit 4-5 times and never have the same thing twice.
I liked ambience too, it is relaxed and mellow and the the dining area is bathed in yellow light. And to me this is perfect for winding down after a busy working week, makes me slow down and appreciate the finer things :)
Service is an area where I thought things can be improved, but not by much, the staff was prompt in responding to requests and the place is usually not crowded so you get your share of attention. Speed of service is decent as well. I would however expect that the waiters be dressed in shoes instead of sandals/chappals though.
Two can have a decent meal here at around a 100 bucks and the fact that Zomato Gold works here and that makes the deal even more sweet. So in terms of cost too this is an okay place.
All in all I like Coastal Reef for its authentic flavours and pleasing ambience. The food is great and it feels good to sit in for half an hour or so and slow down. I see myself coming in to this place for many times to come.
I am going to make coastal reef rich. Lol! Not kidding! Fantabulous south Indian restaurant. Being a south indian living in gurgaon, i miss home food a lot and many north indians dont even know how exactly south food tastes and they ruin it by selling yucky sambars and dosas. But coastal reef proved me wrong!! It is a hidden gem!!!! If u really wanna know how south food tastes, this is the right place!!!! and the food here felt like home cooked!! And taste was wow!!! Must try: non veg dosa, kothu parotta, chicken stew, malabar parotta, and fish fry.
Nice place. Ambience is good. Staff is supportive. Up for vegetarian food.
We ordered chilli fried idli and paneer chilli fry for starters.
Followed by main course: vegetable chettinadu and Nilgiri vegetable korma. Korma I had in Kerala few years ago so was a must South Indian dish for me. chettinadu was recommended by Restro staff.
Do try appam... it’s a kind of break really soft and chewy... Malabar parota and kothu parota were nice too.

Baani square now can truly be termed as a foodies hub with various dining and home delivery options from shakes, pizzas, mughlai, oriental, lebanese, seafood, desserts, a restrobar and Waffle Joints.
This time it was our tastebuds which guided us to this seafood joint Coastal Reef.
We tried the below dishes :
Meen Poluchathu : Fresh and good quality sole fish wrapped in a banana leaf. Tangy flavour.
Mutton Sukka : Soft mutton pieces perfectly spiced with a good taste
Appam : Nicely fermented but a little oily for my preference
Malabar Paratha : Just the way it should be , layered and soft
Malabar Fish Curry : Basa fish which again was fresh and tasted relay well with Appam prepared with a yellow paste
Paneer Dosa : Was a disappointment as it was soggy and sambhar was cold
Chicken stew: This was the showstealer of all. With the taste of curry leaf , mustard seeds and coconut milk, this was the best chicken stew I have had for a long period. Yummy !
Ambience : 4/5
Food : 4/5
Service : 4/5
To conclude , Coastal reef has silent and relaxing interiors, authentic south Indian taste full of aroma and spices.
