Edited later as I did not see the reply button for the below response

Well feedback is taken on face value and def the below response to customer is a monumental blunder or an inexperienced response by someone who took the feedback personal from customer 😅 I leave the rest to people to assess. Also I was talking about your property and not disrespecting any farmers or anyone and not even you though you did otherwise in your kind response 😅

This is my feeeback to improve your business but not to intentionally put u down 😅 TELL IT LIKE IT IS 😅 life is not always 5 star my friend.

Thanks for the response and thanks for another invite to visit your property but I would rather not 😊 Good day!

Edited later again seeing the hospitable second response from Very Kind owners which deserves response as a customer

I am not here to teach anyone. Take it or leave it If I were ungrateful then Pros were not even come up. I rest my case. I was not rude and will not be rude as it was just a opinion shared as feedback. People can easily assess who is or was rude 😅 I would Sit back today not one day as a property owner to read my customer response and will try to ponder on it rather being rude, defensive and attacking customers personally with...

We had two meals at this charming cafe and loved both experiences. The first time, we arrived just 15 minutes before closing, but the staff kindly gave us time to decide our order.

That afternoon, after riding our motorcycles through the heat all the way from Vagator, Goa, their Fresh Lime Soda was exactly what we needed—so refreshing that I ordered a second one. For the meal, we had Mushroom Do Pyaza with chapatis. The gravy was delicious, the mushrooms perfectly cooked—we thoroughly enjoyed it.

The next evening, we returned for dinner. It was one of the few places open till 11:30 PM, which let us enjoy a relaxed meal without feeling rushed. I couldn’t resist getting another Fresh Lime Soda 😄. For starters, I had Drums of Heaven and devoured all eight drumsticks myself—they were juicy, well-cooked, and coated in a flavorful sauce.

For the main course, I tried the prawns curry with butter laccha paratha. The curry had just the right amount of spice, and the coconut added great balance. Novel, yet homely.

To add to the food, the cafe has a great ambience and an even better taste in music. It had been ages since I’d heard November Rain by Guns N' Roses—such a pleasant surprise.

After both meals, we had lovely conversations with the owner, who was warm, welcoming, and open to feedback. We learned they only use fresh seafood—never frozen—to ensure top-notch taste and texture. Their momos are also made fresh daily, unlike many places that serve reheated frozen ones.

The cafe is run by a passionate team that truly cares about quality and service. The staff is polite, and you can sense their dedication to the food and their craft.
