Reviews Carvalho's Bar & Restaurant

Probably the cheapest food joint in entire North Goa and hands down one of the best. Food in Goa is NOT cheap. A lunch or dinner for two at any given place will start from INR 1000 and can go up to INR 2000, depending on the place.

It is here that I had the Balchao, Xacuti, Cafreal & the famous Recheado items. These curry items are all made from indigenous goan spices. Ranging from mildy hot, to too hot, these frangrant spices are heavenly and will leave your taste buds wanting more.

A perfect lunch is the Goan Thali. Or you can just opt for a Xacuti or Balchao. Be warned, it is enough for 2 people and is best enjoyed with steamed rice.

Lunch/Dinner at Carvalho's (in Calangute) cost me INR 500 or below for 2 people (including double servings of drinks). So compared to other places, this was quite cheap and there was no compromise with the taste.

⛱️ This place easily draws your attention as being located in the middle of the charming streets of calangute market and at a walkable distance from calangute beach. From my observations, it's one of the most likeable place enjoyed by many locals as well as the foreigners. The outlet gets busy at some times especially during evenings, but nevermind they have all covered.
__________________________________________________

⛱️ The restaurant is very well ventilated as its open from sides with a lot of space for sunlight and freah air to reach in. Classic wooden chairs, tables, high chairs and ledges to keep your drink and food dishes. The service is pretty cool. The drinks don't take anytime to serve while food takes a little while to prepare. Overall pretty decent.
__________________________________________________

⛱️ They offer some delicious and comfort food which are full of flavors from Indian and Chinese to Italian and Goan and tasty bar nibbles as well, but don't get carried away by that! They also have some great range of beverages to grab on. The main highlight is that, they offer super cheap pints of chilled beers at an never found deal of Rs. 50 per pint! Shocked right?? So what are you waiting for you all beer lovers?? Grab a chilled pint of yours and enjoy to the fullest. This is like dream come true for many people totally!
__________________________________________________

⛱️ As I mentioned about their food earlier, you can order as per your preferences. We certainly ordered our very own classics- Tandoori Chicken, Lollipops and Schezwan Lollipops. All were perfectly cooked, lip-smackingly delicious, well seasoned, well proportioned, hot, fresh and ideal 'to go for' bar nibble with our pints!
__________________________________________________

⛱️ If you are eagerly looking for a place to just sit and relax and to get complete vibes of being at Goa, then you have to visit Carvalhos to adore the same!

Carvalho's at Calangute gives you the Charm of the Goa vibes all in one package!

This bar is placed right on the street to the bliss of Calangute beach and will surely draw your attention with Chill ambience and Cheap beer they serve as a deal! It is favourite to both the foreigners and the locals to relax with their drinks and finger licking food both during the day as well through the night.

The best stars were our appetizers ordered her;

This place is small and cozy and gets you relaxed..
Its value for money!
We ordered the following along with our drinks:
Chicken satay in peanut sauce- this dish melts in your mouth..the chicken is soft and so easy to break..they serve this with peanut sauce which is bang on and both blend well!
Pomfret fry- the fish was fresh and soft..they give you fries and salad along with it which is a decent amount of food
Chicken pasta in white sauce-yummy dish..the sauce was bang on..along with a nice mix of pasta and chicken
Fries-normal french fries
Milshakes-chocolate and mango(this is the only thing I wouldn't recommend)

Its a nice small place to hangout with friends. Staff is very friendly and atmosphere is very cool. Little congested space but very much pocket friendly.
I had drinks, chilly chicken and butter chicken.
Chilly chicken was average but butter chicken was one of the best I had in some time. Its a must try.
Will surely visit again whenever I visit Goa again. :) :)

Well I love to eat here, everytime I am near calangute I make sure I atleast eat once here, this time we ate once and took parcel the next day. If you love spicy food, u surely need to try the calamari masala fry, cheese pakodas were awesome too.. It's not on the menu, bt asked for it, so they served it, very cheesy and the batter was light and had some mint on it. The tandoori was good too.

Good Food and Pocket friendly; these two words sums up my dinner experience at this place. The place is very easy to locate right next to the main road, has an open and airy seating arrangement. Ambience is okay, mostly crowded, not too loud music. Tried Chicken Caffreal, mixed seafood noodles and pasta. Quite authentic Goan taste.. Food was amazing along with chilled beer. Had a pretty satisfied tummy and heart without burning a hole in our pocket. Do visit; good place to chill and enjoy some sea food and goan delicacies.

One of the best places on the Calungute stretch to dine. Best food, you got to try out the American Steak and Chicken Lollipop as well as the chicken crispy. Breakfast can also be an option here but they do not have an extensive menu for it but everything that they have on menu is cooked to perfection. Loved the place and would recommend and visit when ever we are in Goa.

I moved to Goa for a month for work purposes. So, I was trying to find a place that I could tag as my 'The Go-to Place'.

That's when I walked into Carvalho's one day. It is a decent place with brilliant music playing all the time.

The best part for me was their budget menu. It is so amazing to see that I could have my Budweiser each day for just 80/- and not a penny more. No service charge. No additional taxes. That... Was the USP of this place for me.

Then, I tried food. It is absolutely brilliant. I've never had to point anything about the food. It has always been bang on. Again, decently priced. My favorites for the three meals I have over there are : Masala Cheese Omelette, Aloo Paratha, Calamari Crisp, Chicken 65 and Chicken Xacuti (A goan dish).

Yet, the best part about this place is definitely the people here. They'll keep a check for everything being good at your table while maintaining your privacy, that is a skill in itself. Very polite, considerate and will be happy to recommend you delicacies and drinks.

This place also serves hookah (sheesha) and allows smoking.

Do try the Cashew Feni. It's a local spirit of Goa. Mix it with Limca and you'll have the perfect Goan drink for yourself.

The food is below average apart from some dishes like chicken 65, chicken aachari which are worth trying. The chicken and prawns fried rice is the worst I had there.

What can I say ! Yummilicious food ! Me and husband were in Goa for more than a week. We may have visited this place more than five times....

Food : Excellent, Mind blowing, delicious!
Ambiance: Very close to Calangute beach, Road facing open air restaurant with a roof over your head !
Service: Excellent! The servers were friendly, professional , inviting
Price: Very reasonable!
Crowd: Tourists , lovely decent crowd

Been there 3-4 for dinner and once for breakfast during my Goa stay. Located 5 minutes from Calangute beach.

TRIED:
Chicken Cafreal
Chicken Xacuti
Prawns Goan Masala Dry
Chicken Steak Sizzler
Chicken Angara Kebab
Chicken Satay
Chicken Crispy
Naans
Banana Pancakes

FOOD:
Prawns Goan Masala Dry: Prawns starter cooked in Goan style. Succulent mid-sized prawns covered in spicy Goan Masala. Absolute bliss! Still can't get over this dish. Highly recommended. Though the quantity (8-9 prawns) was less for the cost charged.

Chicken Cafreal: Must must try dish. Authentic Goan dish with flavours of mint, green chillies and lemon. Served with a side of rice. Had this dish atleast 4 times during my stay. Highly recommended.

Chicken Xacuti: Another Goan dish. Orangish gravy. The gravy served here was a bit similar to Cafreal. Don't know if it's supposed to taste that way. Nevertheless it tasted okay.

Chicken Steak Sizzler:
Chicken steak served with veggies and gravy on a bed of rice. Presentation was picture perfect. Tasted delicious. Enough for only one person.

Chicken Angara Kebab:
Chicken pieces marinated in spicy masala and grilled. Tasted good.

Chicken Crispy:
Just another desi chinese dish. Tasted slightly better than other restaurants. Sufficient quantity.

Chicken Satay:
Long pieces of chicken served on sticks, covered with peanut sauce and grilled. A bit different from other dishes. Go for it if you don't mind peanuts.

Naans:
Quantity per serving is more. One naan has 5-6 pieces sufficient for an low appetite person.

Banana pancakes:
Light fluffy pancake stuffed with banana slices and drizzled with chocolate sauce. Neither too sweet not too bland. Just the right balance.

AMBIENCE:
The place is always buzzing with people, a majority of them foreigners. Peppy music plays in the background as people sit along a bench overlooking the road with a beer in hand.
The tables are a bit small but the atmosphere more than makes up for it.

SERVICE:
The quality of service varied on different visits. Some waiters are attentive. Some waiters had to be called again and again over the loud music.

VERDICT:
One of the best restaurants in Calangute in terms of quality of food and their prices. Never had a bad dish here!
The atmosphere is loud, chilled and touristy.
Ignore the service. Go there for the food and vibe.

How this place as only got a 3.5 rating is beyond me as it’s defo 5star for quality quantity and value.
Been reading the reviews which seemed good so I thought I’ve got to try this place and I wasn’t disappointed. I’ve never had a paneer dish before but thought I’d give it a go and I loved it. I asked for all my food to be spicy and all dishes came spicy including my riata so a big thumbs up for listening and providing what I wanted.

Chilly paneer
Chicken biryani
Garlic roti
Raita
2 large kingfisher
Water and Milky coffee

750 ruppees is a big bargain
I go home on the 19th but I’m gonna go out of my way to try this place again as the food was first class and service was also brilliant

Thank you for an amazing experience

The place was decided for dinner on a short notice. My friends were interested in eating authentic Goan food as always so we chose this restaurant. The seating is good. The waiters are most of the time glued to the TV. The menu covers multiple cuisines. The service was good and a good option for dinner in calangute.

We wished to order Pork Vindaloo but he informed us that the masala is spicy. I requested him if it could be made with less spice for which he disagreed. I somewhere feel he shouldn't have said no. Tourists have heard Vindaloo as one of the preparations that tastes good and I have eaten a less spicy vindaloo.

Pork sausage chilly fry: They stir fried the pork sausage perfectly and it was not chewy like the usual ones.

Squids Goan masala fry: I am pretty sure they use racheardo masala to fry these squids. It was good but very spicy. We know Indians love spicy. But I somehow I feel the spice should be controlled basis the customers requirement.

Tandoori roti : perfect

Chicken Mughlai: A must try. Chicken peices cooked in green masala and egg beaten and poured in d gravy. The egg complimented the chicken gravy well and enhanced it's flavour.

Chicken Cafreal: A must try. Authentic flavour of the cafreal served with portion of rice. Actually I didn't want rice so I asked if it could be adjusted with rotis for which they said No. Why serve rice if a person wouldn't want it. No issues.

Overall good food, nice service and would visit again some other time.

Cons:
Compulsory portion of rice not required.
Cannot reduce the spiciness.
Waiters glued to the TV more than customers, they were watching the movie 'Tere Naam' lol.

Cheers.....

Carvalho's (4-Oct-16): Good place to have couple of beers, some of items mentioned in menu may not be available, only chicken and fish were available when we visited, we tried Chicken Steak and Chicken Cafreal both were good (just good not great). Don't go by online menu on Zomato, it's not updated.
Pros : Beers are comparatively cheaper compared to other bars. Food is good. Located on main Calangute street, so easy to find.
Cons : Some of the items in menu were not available. If you have a four wheeler, parking might be a problem in peek hours. It's good place, however nothing exceptional, It is recommended by Zomato as well, wondering why ?

It's worth a try if you are around the area and nothing much to do or waiting for someone while there are shopping.

Simple sitting arrangement, with limited people working.

We went for lunch, and we ordered Prawns Rava fry as a starter, and King Fish curry along with steam rice for main course.

The prawns turned out to be nice and crispy layering just made it more tasty.

The king fish curry was good too.

Food was simply awesome. The portions served were a bit small but the taste was totally worth the price. And hey! Forgot to tell you the the price of everything was very very reasonable. I am non vegetarian but I ordered vegetarian food. Palak Paneer in particular was too nice. One sweet dish called 'BEBINCA' which is a local sweet dish is totally worth trying. I would suggest that if you are coming here, dooooooooo try BEBINCA. I suppose that's it. :D

This place is near CCD on calangute beach road. Carvalho's serves goan, Continental, Indian and Chinese cuisines.

I visited twice to this place for lunch, for first visit I tried chicken steak and chicken cafreal. In second visit I opted for Indian cuisines... Ordered butter chicken, biryani, crispy chicken, garlic nan and apple juice.

Each and every dish was good. Cafreal was boneless chicken pieces cooked in a cafreal goan curry served with rice was very delicious. Chicken Steak in pepper sauce was not the best one but it was good. Indian cuisines were also prepared pretty well which I was not expecting from them. Butter chicken was sweet and rich tomato gravy goes pretty well with garlic nan. Biryani was OK.

Service was slow but they already conveyed us while placing an order so its OK.

Will visit here again to try Chinese and update my status.

The place is located on the way to Calangute beach. The ambiance is very shady. The food served here is excellent. The Service is quick.

I have tried many dishes here of these i would like to recommend Markeral Goan Masala Fry , Kingfish and Fish Curry Rice. The Pastas are also good and grilled stuffed.

If you are in Goa and near calangute, do visit this place for a quick meal.

Try the Carvahlos Punch Cocktail.

Overall good experience in terms of food quality and Service

I will not be wrong to say that this is one of my most favourite eateries in Goa. To begin with...it's really easy on the pocket. Secondly, the ambiance during the evening and night is just amazing. This place serves equally great breakfast,brunch,lunch and dinner too. It's always crowded showing how much it is loved by all. 

Most people who visit this place once become it's regular customers (that includes me an my friends during our short trip to Goa). 

Their specialties include seafood, Chicken starters, breakfasts ,juices,etc. The other thing that needs mentioning is the service. The cordiality of the waiters just wins you over. Try their cocktails like Pinacolada and their tiger prawns. 
Visit this place once and you will be telling everyone ...No one can eat here  just once.

Nice place with good Goan food. Tried the Prawns Goan curry and the king fish thali. Very yummy. Situated in a nice place. The waiter was very attentive. This is my third time in Goa and I have yet to see a waiter not being nice. It may be my luck or this Goa atmosphere keeps them cool.

Cheap and best food. Decent ambience. Good service as we have ordered beef chille but with very less beer pieces. In no time we got just beef pieces or more known as beef chilly. Appreciate the waiters who are nice and explain well about the food you order. Must recommend beef and pork items.

They don't have much option in booze. But overall ambience is good. Chill vibe with good taste. And you can get most of the foreigners in this restaurant. As it is said that this is very old restaurant.

If you are a seafood lover this place is the best. Must try Squids, Crabs, Pomfret, King Prawns in Goan style. Morning breakfast with French Toast will give you a great start ahead. For Veggies do try out Penne Mushroom Pasta and never the less for non vegetarian it’s all time the best. Staff is very nice here.

Food is good and economical (almost Rs. 250 per person). The view and location is pretty good too. Almost half a km from Calangute beach. Looks of this place is a tempting one. Its almost a hybrid between mumbai and European bars. Situated right on the main road this is a good option if you are in Calangute.

Carvalho's at Calangute gives you the Charm of the Goa vibes all in one package! This bar is placed right on the street to the bliss of Calangute beach and will surely draw your attention with Chill ambience and Cheap beer they serve as a deal! It is favourite to both the foreigners and the locals to relax with their drinks and finger licking food both during the day as well through the night. The best stars were our appetizers ordered her; Chicken Tandoori, Schezwan and regular Chicken Lollipops Along with super cheap pints of chilled beer at an never found deal of Rs. 50 per pint! This would be a dream come true for many! Do check out Carvalho's, an awesome outlet awaiting to serve both friends and family a best Goan vacay experience!

Small place.. Can be missed or overlooked unless you have checked online. Food is very tasty. And service lil slow but good over all. Good place if you just want to sit and catch up on match or any such or just see the market buzz. No AC. Just fan so if you're expecting something fancy then no.. Else to go place .
