Hotel Pingara — Restaurant in Karnataka

Hotel Pingara offers a unique culinary experience with its blend of local and North Karnataka flavors. We opted for the Fish Rice served on a banana leaf, accompanied by some fish fry. The taste, influenced by both local and North Karnataka elements, provided a distinct and enjoyable dining experience.

Wow..Best seafood hotel in Manipal which is really worth the money!!! Majority of fish are available here. One must try Prawns rava fry which is mouthwatering and delicious.

The price of menu are not costly comparing to other hotels. We ordered 2 fish meals, one Mackerel Tawa fry and one plate Prawns rava fry. It costed us just Rs. 280/- in total, which is really worthy. Best in terms of taste, fresh, cleanliness and the cost. Must try if you are in Manipal. It is nearer to Arbi falls, manipal lake or Hasta shilpa heritage village. If you are visiting those places you can have an awesome lunch here which is just 1 or 2 kms away from...

Also other items like paneer chilli, chicken kebab, squid fry are there. An intolerable place for pure...
