Reviews The Curry House

As the name suggest its a curry house so feel free to order curries from here, one of the well-known places here falls on the way to Aguada fort. the ambiance is nice and open serves alcohol and good food, we ordered for veg sizzler, chicken lasooni tikka and few drinks overall the service food and beverage were good and sufficient for 4 of us and the bill was also pocket friendly, the place looks vibrant during evening with all the jazzy lighting and funky music. the afternoon was a bit dull however evening looked promising (as we were on our way to our apartment and saw the place)

I am surprised at the current rating, The Curry House on Fort Aguada Road has been averaging at.

While parking can be a quite a risk and challenge here, there are ample lanes and by-lanes at perpendiculars to this road near the restaurant that accommodate parking under a shady banyan or two.

This is my second visit to the restaurant, my last being approximately 5 years ago but not much has changed.

The ambience, the music, the food, the prices, the service... They all continue to remain the same... inviting and warm.

The street is quite deserted and void of traffic at this hour, punctuated only by a car or a bike or two. The interior is very cool and the soft pop in the backdrop only adds on to the lovely afternoon ambience.

My daughter has her standards and choices quite set and initiates her meals with a Cream Of Chicken Soup (₹100) which turns to Sweet Corn Chicken (!!??) when it is placed in front of her. Well she likes it anyway so we do not take anyone to task.
She has also opted to share a Balti of Butter Chicken (₹280) and Jeera Fried Rice (₹150) with her mother. The Butter Chicken is well prepared and extremely tender. The taste is a far cry from the preparation I have tasted back in my home city and less sweeter and thus complimenting very well with the Jeera Rice which again is a far cry from the Maharashtrian version. This also had a mild flavour of turmeric.

My son and I give the good old beer a miss and settle for a Coke (₹30) to quench the thirst and wet the bite.

For the bite, we select Chicken Cafreal (₹320) and Jeera Fried Rice. It is after quite a while that we have finally tasted authentic Cafreal so this one is a treat. Again, the chicken meat is tender and juicy. Both the chicken dishes have plenty of chicken pieces so the price is justified.

On the side, we have ordered for a King Prawns Rawa Fry, reasonably priced at ₹320. The prawns are fresh and the masala they are fried in is also delectable.

For desserts (free), we see the familiar dark blue tow van creep in and interrupt the afternoon meal of a few diners by picking up the two wheelers that have been parked illegally along the curb. The scraping of chairs, the clatter of steel cutlery, the short sharp cries from a bevy of pretty girls, all add to the amusement as youngsters (who have been warned earlier by a couple of the restaurant's staff), rush to whisk their bikes out of the reach of the law before they are loaded into the van or to strike a deal to spare a trip to the nearest police chowki!

The Curry House would always be our go-to-place for a quiet and lovely meal on a lazy weekday afternoon.

A good place with nice ambiance and good food. As I had visited near Christmas time, the place was nicely decorated and well lit. A Christmas Tree was placed near the centre giving it a festive feel.
(Almost all the tables were occupied by foreigners).

The food also was good and the rates were reasonable.
We tried, Chicken tandoori which was well cooked and tasty. We also ordered chicken lollipops which were crispy and good to taste.
In main course we ordered Balti Butter chicken (which tasted like chicken kadhai but good to taste nonetheless) and butter naan. We also ordered rice.

A place worth try!!

This restaurant is on road near to candolim beach and kingfisher villa. walk able distance to Santana beach resort (where we were staying)  and food was appreciable and good. we tried their veg and non veg items . All were made good. Fish and other sea food was very costly , may be of rainy season but other prices are ok as per tourist place. Beer price was ok too. U can have supper anytime over there.

Great place to grab a tasty meal in candolim, easy to locate, decent crowd and pleasent atmosphere . The staff is very helpful and well worse with the menu and the trending dishes offered. Had a great lunch with friends would recommend the bacon wrapped prawns ♥️ what a lovely combination

Great food, good ambience, great beer!

try the squid masala fry, its delicious. The service was prompt and well received.

Very close to aguada fort .

-:LOCATION & AMBIENCE:-
Situated in Candolim on the way to Kingfisher Villa, which is a 5 minute walk..The place is an Open Spaced Area with abundant seating..Tables for 4 each & a few tables for larger groups of approx 8-10 pax..
The wooden chairs & tables are proportionately heightened for a comfortable dining experience..But being in an open environment, there are way too many mosquitoes that tend you irritate you..For such circumstances, they're always ready with their mosquito coils..I loved their choice of music played..It's mild most of the time but as the crowd grows, the collection of songs played becomes increasingly better..They also have a screening for the Live matches..
The Overall Ambience is just right for spending lovely evenings with some friends over the more noisier restobars of Candolim..

-:DRINKS:-
WATERMELON JUICE (5/5): Was a pretty good option in the Juices Section..Refreshing, filling & tasty too! Sweetness was near perfect too! A MUST-TRY!

PINA COLADA (4.5/5): Good taste overall! Won't say it was the best, but it was surely worth ordering..Could have been a little more creamier & texture could have been smoother..Nonetheless, it's A MUST-TRY!

-:FOOD:-
STARTERS:
CRISPY CHICKEN (4.5/5): Chicken deep fried until crispy & tossed in a medium spicy schezwan sauce along with grated cabbage..A MUST-TRY!

CRUMB CHICKEN (4/5): Tasted nothing different than the Crispy Chicken..The coating was supposed to be Bread crumbs deep fried, but it tasted all same..Found this to be a little bit more spicier though!

CHICKEN SEEKH KEBAB (4.5/5): Wonderful taste! The Seekh Kebabs seemed a little dry, but were very flavourful! The Chutney served with the Kebabs was tasty too! It took a little too long to make these yummies, but they were worth the wait! A MUST-TRY!

GOBI MANCHURIAN DRY (1/5): Wasn't really the dish I intended to order..This was more semi-dry than I expected..The taste wasn't good at all..They need to re-invent the recipe probably!

PEANUT MASALA (5/5): When you have a drink on the table & you're not wanting an extra starter, easiest option for a 'chakna' is some lovely Peanut Masala..Includes Chopped Onions, Tomatoes, Green Chillies & Chat Masala..A MUST-TRY!

MAIN COURSE:
GOAN FISH CURRY (4.5/5): One of the Best Goan Curries I've had till date..Perfect amount of Coconut Milk base, Fish pieces were big & tasty..A perfect combo with steamed rice! A MUST-TRY!

STEAMED RICE (4/5): A portion of Rice is sufficient for 2..The rice is thick but well cooked..Goes well with the Goan Fish Curry..

PANEER FRIED RICE (2/5): Just another vegetarian option..The Paneer Fried Rice wasn't such a good option after all..Too dry to eat & no schezwan sauce given alongside too..Taste could have been better..

SPICY FRIED RICE (4.5/5): Tastewise, it was comparatively better than the Paneer Fried Rice..To get the spicyness quotient right, they made use of Black Pepper which gave the Rice a nice taste..The Rice had a combo of Chicken, Prawns & Egg for the meat & Spring Onions for garnish..A MUST-TRY!

VEG MANCHURIAN GRAVY (4/5): The portion seemed small to me..Tastewise, it was good, but I should rather have gone for the Chicken version instead of Veg one..The gravy should have more Garlic in it, just to make it Perfect!

MASALA TEA (5/5): One of the Best Teas in Candolim..Haven't found any other place serving such nice Tea..This is just Perfecto!

-:DESSERTS:-
VANILLA ICE-CREAM WITH HOT CHOCOLATE SAUCE (1.5/5): Had they used some real Chocolate Sauce, I would have said this is a Must try dessert..Unfortunately, all they used was Hershey's Syrup as a substitute..So this is a not at all a recommended dish..

VANILLA ICE-CREAM WITH BEBINCA (4.5/5): Bebinca was on my mind before even entering Goa..Tasted the Jaggery made Bebinca for the first time, that too with Vanilla Ice-Cream..Tasted lovely! The extra sweetness of the Cakes is neutralized by the Vanilla Ice-Cream..A MUST-TRY!

-:SERVICE:-
The Service boys needs to be attentive all the time..They have to leave alone their cellphones atleast when the customers are seated..We had to call them each time for orders & even for water..The service when food is ordered is fast, but again lags by a greater margin..Improvement needed!

Awesome live music @ sundays. The person sang all the songs beautifully - a perfext mix of classic Hollywood and hindi songs.
The food and services were good.
We just came here listening to the person performing .

Nice restaurant. 😊😊 Food is yummy.....
The best part of this retaurant is music🎤🎸🎼..... which adds good essence of flavour in ur food..

At first, i was not sure about going to this place. But i am glad that we did.

The place was a normal shack shaped restraunt. This one has got a variety of dishes at nominal prices.

I was dying to eat authentic fish curry in Goa and this place offered one.

We ordered Fish curry and rice, which was delectable. They serve rice with curried fish, some delicious tangy salad and a fried portion of fish. The quantity of rice was more than enough. The only thing i did not like was the gravy or curry taste, was a bit bitter. Yet i liked it.

We also ordered Masala prawn and chapati. It was a star dish. The prawns were yummy. The quantity was again more than enough, i could even have it with my fish curry and rice.

Great food. Good prices.

Always busy which is a good sign as the food is always good. They have had a refit and the place feels big and airy, live music everynight we have been there and the guys that wirk there do their best to keep you well stocked up with drinks and food. We have been many times and even the Boss Sam makes a point of saying hi.

Live music 🎶 Ambiance was amazing 🤩 Food was also great 😊 Parking available only in front of the restaurant.

Afternoon well spent at The Curry House... Location is on the main road, easy to locate, parking available on the site, well maintained clean washrooms, service is good, waiters are attentive, food taste is good as well, we had golden fried prawns and crab masala with roti, in drinks we tried kaju and coconut feni with limca on the suggestion from our waiter seemed to be a good combination. Ending our lunch with tuborg. Bonus was we were able to watch India VS South Africa match. Overall a good experience.

Superb feeling here and the food quality and taste is amazing .. i tried peri peri prawns must try that and pine pasta superb Must order Mr. Krishna and yes music collection is all so damn good

Awesome place. Really really enjoyed here.Highly recommended. Service, food quality, ambience everything was 10/10 Specially the live singing... my hubby had requested a song and that part was awesome for us. Thank you curry room for adding a memory to our vacation.

Food is very good .. we liked the crab and pancakes, better than other places’ killer fish we had better taste at other place.

We found very good service here. Service delivered by Mr. Krishna and Mr.Souman is very cool and satisfactory .

Uodated, this place is amazing.. go here.. first, anshul is the best. Nice restaurant on the main drag, has a very large menu with both veg, non-veg, and even beef items. Lots of fans to keep you cool on the heat. They have live music and on the day we went it was phenomenal. Food definitely good, the chicken lollipops are a must as well as the fish tika. We also had some good prawn curry and butter paneer. Service is good, maybe a little slow when they are busy but all in all a nice little spot to hang out and grab some food or drinks.
