Ramesh Restaurant — Restaurant in Goa

We visited Ramesh Restaurant after watching a couple of youtube videos. We ordered Mackerel masala fry and two goan thalis with kingfish rawa fry. Mackerel was amazing. The preparation was very different from what we had tried before and was very tasty. Kingfish rawa fry from the thali was great too. The spices, the texture of the fish and crispiness of the semolina were all on point. The other dish which had dry prawns was tasty too. The only thing that was a bit of mixed bag was the fish curry. It had less salt and overall the taste felt average. I have had better fish curries before. The rice was different than the kind we usually get in Goa but it was nice. The quantity of rice could have been better though.

Overall we were very much satisfied with the food. The vibe of this restaurant cum home is very nice and peaceful. We know that Mr Ramesh uncle has passed away and their wife and daughters are carrying his legacy and we have great respect for that. Many people in the reviews have complained about the wait time but they should know that a mom and her two daughters are running the entire show. Also home food always takes and should take sufficient amount of time to cook. However, I feel that the rates could have been lesser a bit. I understand that Ramesh Restaurant has been popular amongst europeans and food bloggers and the homely yet delicious food is worth it, but you know that all home eateries generally have less prices. The kingfish thali cost us 400/- rupees and had less quantity and dishes than we are used to. Apart from that everything else is great and I would recommend everyone to visit...

Best seafood and fish restaurant in Goa! If you are looking for authentic , perfectly seasoned and perfectly cooked fish and seafood in Goa look no further! We had the pleasure of visiting this lovely family run restaurant today and we are so happy we’ve found it! The restaurant specializes in traditional Goan style fish and seafood dishes with a small menu that shows which items they have fresh that day. We can highly recommend the grilled Chonak, Prawn masala fry, mussel rava fry and calamari - everything is cooked fresh to order and super flavourful. They also have fish thali’s with different fish which were recommended to us by 2 different customers in the shop - we can’t wait to try them now! Also I noticed the kitchen to restaurant is spotlessly clean and they have a handwashing facility which I always appreciate. Divya and her family are really lovely people that obviously have a lot of pride and love for the food they cook - we will be going back as soon as possible :) Don’t...

A humble family run household eatery serving some really freshly prepared and delicious home food. The hosts were really warm and hospitable, our bad luck that we couldn't try out their fish thalis as their freshly catched supply was done for the day.

But still we could try out their prawn curry, prawns masala and pomfret fry. The prawns curry and rice was to die for and the pomfret fry was the star of the table. The fish was pretty decent sized and it was truly value for money. I will recommend this place to people who don't like fancy food and want to try the humble yet delicious home cooked fresh seafood. Will surely visit this place again for their thalis and...
