3 Best Restaurants in Goa, India

The Goa Marriott's café and lounge, pronounced "As You Are," may be worth a visit for the bay views alone—fortunately, the quality of its limited yet choice menu won't disappoint, either. After dark, the coffee shop morphs into a relaxed evening lounge bar.

Low-hung black lamps light a woven bamboo ceiling, and quintessentially Goan Mario Miranda cartoons enliven the walls at this restaurant inside the Caravela Beach Resort. Here you'll find excellent fusion food and great desserts; unfortunately, it's only open for dinner.

Located up a flight of stairs at the historic Panjim Inn, with indoor and outdoor seating, Verandah has an atmospheric location for those seeking a casual spot to sample tasty, fairly priced Goan cuisine or continental food. Check the daily specials, particularly for seasonal seafood items.
