A beautiful wada turned into a dine in restaurant with a garden area. Inside it has several rooms, on ground floor and first floor, interiors- white walls have pictures of movies, wooded doors, windows and staircase, simple furniture and a very cool ambiance. An open kitchen for all to see whats cooking inside 😉

FISH CURRY RICE is a to go place …Food that screams Coastal - both non veg and veg treasured by Punekars for a long time since its inception. Consistency, promise of good quality meat, authentic preparation in Goan, Karwari, Konkani and more, plus good service. It has bagged several awards over the years. So it definitely needs no introduction and it is apt opening a new branch to come closer to customers at Tilak Road.

We stared with #Stuffed_Bombil_Fry it is such an amazing way to start your meal…absolutely delicious #Surmai_fry : crispy and fresh .. I loved it! #Pomfret_fry : A sizeable sized pomfret ..again very delicious. #Tival : A spicy cool drink . This one had a vee bit sweetness.

With ordered for a Tisrya (शिपल्या)Thali and Crab (खेकडा)Thali. Each #Thali has sukat, cauliflower pickle, coconut tamarind chutney, onion lemon, two fish curry( goan and karwari), sol kadhi, chappati/bhakri and rice. It came along with crab/ tisrya thick curry/fry. The crab curry was spicy and the tisrya curry is flavourful.

Every item on the plate was bliss. One can ask for unlimited siders and ask for hot chapati /bhakri /rice servers are courteous however on a busy day you need to wait your turn to be served.

Dessert #Kharwas … it was a perfect way to end to this meal. Kharwas is sugar based, out sourced, portion is huge. It tastes is more like a kharwas custard.

Fish Curry Rice has a well thought out menu. It plays a vital role.Starters were top notch. Every element in the thali has defined taste and one can surely enjoy this lavishness if you are a born...

Recently visited this place which serves authentic fish with a decent ambience. Since the restaurant owners have a background from Theatre and Drama field they have kept the ambience with boards of various dramas in which they have contributed in some way . These drama boards have been hanged in the outdoor area which is the garden kind of area outside the restaurant . For the indoor ambience warm lights with various frames of actors , actresses , etc all over the wall. The restaurant has three places where the sitting is available the outer garden area , the indoor ground floor area and the first floor area. In the fish fry we had Surmai rava , Surmai masala , bangda fry , bombil thecha fry and also lasuni paplet which I personally tried out for the first time. In lasuni paplet a masala with base of lasun was stuffed in it never thought ( this was the first time I tried lasuni paplet ) it would taste so good. All the fish variants Surmai rava fry , Surmai masala fry , bombil thecha fry were top notch the quality and taste is heavenly. Coming to the thalis a perfect plate , a plate of happiness I would say , the curries served with the thali were authentic and so delicious that one could even enjoy sip by sip. Meanwhile the owner also told us about how actually should we eat rice with curry. So the actual way of having curries with rice is to add curry and also add same amount of solkadi in it . This actually tasted so good . We also tried their tila ( kokam) and solkadi which were totally...

Crab Masala , Stuffed Bombil (green Thecha) , Stuffed Pomfret (red Thecha), Dashmi (Rice Bhakri) , Solkadhi and Kharwas was on our plate. Since it was the 1st day of Shravan ; Crabs in semi gravy masala style is what they could offer. Size of the crab was somewhere small to medium range compared to the price with a bowl full of gravy. Stuffed Bombil (4 whole) was a killer it was absolutely delicious. Spicy Crisp and just right. Pomfret was Crisp and nice. Bhakri was soft and good size. Solkadi vati (without coconut milk) was delicious and was served as a welcome drink. The other Solkadhi with coconut milk was also equally well prepared. Kharwas i felt was not 100% authentic. A pure Kharwas gives you a slight sticky feeling when u take a bite. We are regulars in making Kharwas at home so we know how it tastes. The place is simple , with good hygiene, trained and courteous staff. And don't miss on the beautiful Marathi movie actor photos on the wall. Apparently it's built by some of the Marathi film fraternity peeps. Amazing isn't it. Now Considering Pune city and the kind of similar food the city has to offer with a much lesser cost and which is at par on taste i felt this one was lil overpriced is my view but yes for the service and the vibe it's an absolute 10/10. Our total bill was about 2k plus...
