want a fantastic restaurant then go to rustlers steak house in calangute opp the Poirat football ground. its away from the main roads but at the same time only meteres away. great food and entertainment every nite. my friend johnny at jungle village does do a great roast. and the reason jazz house was closed down etc was because of the drug usage and selling in the place.

Well if the owner can't recommend Rustlers then I suppose it would really be in trouble :lol: ( will allow this ad!)

rustlers is behind the nizmar resort. you take the road opposite the nike and reebok shops then your 1st right again and follow it round. its the only restaurant there. we used to be on the main road opposite Lloyds bar on the border of calangute/candolim.

Feel a bit reluctant giving this info, but the Bhatti Village Bar down the lane from our house in Nerul is outstanding for food.
It is popular with tourists and locals. Run by Patrick and Michelle (both Goans from the village) they do fabulous authentic Goan food. There is no menu, Patrick tells you what they have available on the day. His fish dishes are lovely and they do the best chips I have ever tasted anywhere. Chicken Cafreal is also very good as is the beef chilli fry. Many Goans are very fussy where they eat but Patrick has a very good reputation for his authencitity and I have yet to hear a bad word about it.
They have two rooms, one where the locals tend to gather and the 'Special Room' where the tourists sit.
They only have five tables and fill up fast. Food is very cheap and 60ml romanov costs R13. It is very clean and the welcome is warm and cheery.
There can be a wait if he is busy but its well worth it.
I only feel safe posting this cos I now ring and book a table :D
Directions: at Nerul junction turn left instead of right towards Coco Beach. Follow the lane and you will see his coloured lights outside.
We have bought tiffin carrier so if we stay in we pop along and get a takeaway 8)

Towpal - youv'e gone and told everyone about Bhatti's - it's the best value, freshest, tastiest eatery i've been to. The people who told us about it said they would be happy to eat the food off the kitchen floor it is that clean. I probably would'nt go that far although it is fantastic.

Just got back from Goa on Saturday and i had many a fine meal. Here are some of the places i ate at and cant complain about any of them..... Exotic Palms (Calangute) Over the Flames (calangute) 1-95 (Calangute) Maggies (Calangute) Floyds x2 (candolim) Bistro (candolim) Casa Seashell x2 (candolim) Mai Tai (candolim) and Molly Malones in Calangute.
All very cheap apart from 1-95 where our meal cost around £22 for 2. Expensive for Goa but worth every penny as the setting is beautifull and a bit upmarket from anywhere else ive eaten before in Goa. Worth spoiling yourselves at least once :lol:

Hope it's OK to add this one here, as it's not a Restaurant. But for anyone craving a good coffee the best place is Cafe Coffee Day, the Indian version of the Cafe Nero etc. Iv'e found shops in Panjim, Margao and Colva and the espresso macchiato is as good as Iv'e had anywhere .

Cafe Coffee Day now have outlets in Candolim, Calangute and Baga too. The first 2 have air-conditioning - very welcome at this time of year. Excellent cold coffees, sandwiches/cakes etc. Shame about the rubbish music they play though!

The one in Baga Road also has appauling service as well!! :shock:
