Reviews Villa 259

For a mellow vibe sans pretense, generous portions of food with rich taste and cocktails to die for, I'd highly recommend making a trip to Villa 259. Tucked away in a quiet street, this quaint, old Portuguese bungalow feels like an ancestral home in its warmth and ease of being. And if you're lucky enough to run into the wonderful folks who run this place you're guaranteed an amazing conversation and top notch recommendations from the already awesome menu!

Villa 259 offers a fantastic experience with its great ambience that sets the perfect mood. The food is exceptional, and the staff is not only friendly but also adds to the overall positive atmosphere. A perfect spot for those seeking a delightful dining experience.

Incredible food and cocktails with lovely ambiance….and…If I wanted to host a party, this is where I’d do it. It’s an old Goan house, beautifully renovated, comfortable and tastefully done. The flow of the outside to inside, with extra rooms where guests can have some privacy is perfect. The staff is gracious and the bar tenders are adept at creating good cocktails, though they have their own craft beer as well. Sophisticated, not fussy. We really loved our lunch here and this might be our new favorite place in Goa! Good parking for cars as well. I only took a few pics of the inside and one private space in the back. The restaurant’s main dining room is larger and there is an outside area in the front where you can dine as well.

Went all the way from Panjim to Assagao just for this place. (how can I miss when it has 4.9 rating). For me it was a mixed bag. The food taste was very good for some items and just OK for certain items. The potato wedges was a disappointment. The pizza was good. The Squid rings were very good. But the quantity is something which is extremely less for the price they charge. The Arbour IPA was good. The cocktail was just OK. Very expensive.

Found this lovely place while searching for a brewery in Goa. And I must say I found beer here which is called as hazy IPA in US, but here in India it goes with names similar to flavored pale ale beers. I loved their beers. They didn't have a huge variety of beers though, but whatever they had was the best. I was nice to meet Anuj, the owner of this brewery and we had a good chat about beers. I really liked the friendliness of him and I invited him to sit with us and he too had beer with us. Their menu on the portal is good. Well-categorized menu-items and drinks and easy to browse. We were not sure about the varities of food and I must say Priyanka was very helpful in choosing the food. She is knowledgeable about the food and how it is cooked and I really appreciate that. We had ordered Chicken Chimichurri and Chicken Pharma with veggies. I liked Chicken Chimichurri in particular. Parking is behind the restaurant reached through narrow road and ample parking space is there. The walk from parking to the restaurant is pleasant and at the time of our visit, they had an exhibition of paintings and a boutique (sort of) inside. Highly recommended place. And I would definitely visit once again for their beers next time I visit Goa!
