My kids and I love seafood, especially when it is cooked in Mangalorean style. And after a lot of false starts in many places which claim to serve Mangalorean fare, I've finally found one place which lives up to its claim.
Now we are such regulars here that we do not even look at the menu anymore to decide what to order.
Some of the dishes I highly recommend are the Surmai fry in Mangalorean style, prawn gassi with neer dosa, clams in sukka masala and bombil fry. The prawn gassi especially is the best I have had outside of Mangalore.
We have even tried some of the chicken fare and it's yummy. Which means that if you are in a group where some folks are not fond of seafood, they do have other options to choose from.
One thing that I really like about this place is that the fish that is served is always fresh. And in case we ask for some seafood dish and the fish is not procured in the morning, the steward mentions it and asks us to choose something else. Now that's called great service.
Another redeeming factor about this place is that it is very spacious so you can dine without having to overhear whatever is happening on your neighboring table; something which you have live with at Mahesh Lunch Home in Juhu.
I highly recommend this place.
