We had a lunch of Dal fry and Plain Rice for Rs. 100, which we found to be expensive compared to local prices. However, the candlelight dinner saved the day with Chicken Sizzlers and Hawaiian blue costing us only Rs. 670, still considered pricey in this part of India.

We have also visited for dinner a few times and it appears to be thriving. Owned by Sam Gonsalves, who also owns Sam's Goan Shack at Gonsua/Majorda, the chefs have been trained to a high standard. The wait staff are charming, but they could benefit from a head waiter to oversee operations. The food is excellent, with a focus on fresh fish and Indian cuisine, including a skilled tandoori chef.
