This place doesn't need an intro.. simply the best sea food restaurant in Mlore.. parking is the only concern.. must try - Anjal Tawa, Squid/Prawns dry fry.
Craving for this place everytime I'm out of Mangalore. Always on my task list when I'm back home. #BestSeaFoodResturant in #Mangalore
OMG! This place is a haven for sea food lovers! I would give 6 stars if I could. The ambience isn't all that great. We went for Sunday lunch and it was a task to get in and grab a seat. But, with food like that, I would give everything else a pass. We had some pomfrets, seer fish and fried prawns. Oh my, i don't think i have had such good prawns or fish! So fresh and yet to so well cooked. I would drive all the way from Bangalore to have this food :D
Giri Manja is located near Kalikamba temple, Gopalakrishna temple road. This legendary place is known for their sea food and fish thali. If I have to suggest someone the best seafood restaurant in Mangalore, then I'd suggest Giri Manja. We ordered fish thali, prawns golden fry, anjal tawa fry and coconut lime soda. They serve boiled rice as well as white rice, it depends on individual choice. I really loved those perfect golden fried prawns. Though masala was dominating in anjal tawa fry, still you can feel the flavour of fresh anjal fish . You can feel the rich flavour of coconut oil in those dishes which was completely new to us. Fish thali was just fantastic with that fish gravy and dal, total worth the money. It's better if you visit this place before 1pm, otherwise it'll be packed. This restaurant is very simple, located inside a small house. So don't expect any classy ambience. There's no parking area for cars, so it's better to take two wheeler or auto-rickshaw.
Finally, Got to visit @giri.manjas for lunch, and I'm glad that I finally did it.
Fish Thali:
There's an option of White rice or boiled rice, and I chose white rice. The fish gravy, was a traditional Fish Coconut Gravy, and it reminded me of my childhood days, when my grandma used to prepare this traditional Fish curry. The thali is perfect in its own way, and the rice is unlimited.
Price:50
Rating: 5/5.
Prawns Tawa Fry:
Who doesn't love prawns, especially the big ones❤. Perfectly Cooked, fresh prawns were served, in a spicy gravy.
Price:190
Rating: 5/5.
The staffs are so friendly, and the place is well maintained.
Overall a place that everyone must try, if you're in Mangalore🤙❤ Location: Kalikamba Cross Road, Lower Car Street.
💓💞one of best sea food restaurant with perfection .. superb masala fry...memories..💞💓
You get the best sea food in mangalore here. We had fish thali, Anjal fry, chicken ghee roast , fish ghee roast . The service and the hospitality provided here is equivalent to what you would find in a fine dining restaurant.
Lovely authentic fish meals and a extremely good prawn ghee roast. This place is highly recommended to visitors and locals alike for their superb konkani fish delicacies!!
Ps can be crowded most of the time !
The food is epic. The fish is incredibly fresh and the masala is really good. Must try the prawns golden fry and fish tawa fries.
Awesome place you can never forget!!
Tastiest Bangude I have ever eaten.
Ghee roast prawns and Golden fry Prawns were also very tasty.
Good environment within restaurant and good service.
Prices are reasonable as well...
"Crowd" is the first word to explain this place. But it's worth to wait if you are mad for seafood. To be Honest If you are Goan then you won't find the place much fascinating as comparing rates and quantity it's expensive. But there is no denial to the tasty food they served.

Situated in the hustle-bustle of the city and on a very narrow street is this restaurant. This restaurant has to be in my top 5 restaurants of the all time. The reason: Anjal Tawa Fry.
One of the best fish I have ever tasted. Freshly cooked, what a marination, and served so well with fish thali. It's just an icing on the cake. The food is server instantly like under 10 mins. And their staff is so so friendly. I visited this place in the afternoon and the waiters specially attends to each and every guest. The waiter serving my table asked me several times if I was comfortable, what I liked what I did not. He made sure I am having a good time while I am dining in at the restaurant.
You can tell from the interiors. This place used to be the home of the owners which they converted into a restaurant. The locals love this restaurant. You will see so many locals coming for lunch and dinner here.
The place is always buzzing with people as this is one of the most famous restaurants in Mengaluru. Easy recommendation and do visit this when in Mengaluru. You won't regret it.
P.S. This is one of the reasons why I love Mengaluru.
Accomplished one wish in my bucket list. Giri Manja is not your usual mangalorean sea food joint. The sea food here has a unique blend of ingredients that are tangy to the palate and divine. You could feel the freshness of the fish by its texture. Ananth, who waited on me, is a connoisseur in describing the menu of the day. Tucked in the by lanes of Car Street, you'll need an accurate GPS to take you to the spot. There's no dedicated parking space, but one can find parking in the narrow lanes. Better take an auto rickshaw. It's worth all the trouble. When in Mangalore, put G&M in your wish list, too.
A homely style restaurant with awesome food and unlimited refill for rice or fish curry and vegetable. The fish curry rice plate was at Rs.120 a bit higher compared to the average. The Muru fish tawa Masala was very tasty and masaledaar. It was priced at Rs. 180. Buttermilk was for Rs.10 only
Good place to have lunch and dinner, located in car street Mangalore near kalikambha temple. This place serves meals with variety of seafood coastal cuisines. Must visit place when you're in Mangalore.
Just loved the food 🥹🤌🏻 it was super delicious 🙌🏻💯
Sea food lovers don’t miss this place when in Mangalore
The staffs and service was really good.
The waiter was kind and suggested us few dishes 💯
And the place has its own aesthetic vibe 🫶🏻
Overall it’s a much visit to this restaurant 💯
Amazing food, Amazing place, Anjal Tawa fry is to die for. Other must tries is are Prawns, Chicken Ghee roast and Squid Fry(Bondas fry).
Bonda Lime is a really refreshing drink.
Amazing food. What I love here is how quick the service is. I think this is the fastest ever service I have ever seen .. You name it and you get it in a minute. The squid fry, butterfish are to die for. The benches are not that comfortable to sit, but they give that old mangalore home vibe.
Awesome place to have awesome food. It's a paradise for Non vegetarians. Prawn ghee roast and Pomfret masala are next level.
