We had been to Gokarna on a 4 day trip. This was the most memorable trip and all the credit goes to zostel for making our stay comfortable and to mantra cafe to make our tummies comfortable!
First things first, THE VIEW! From the restaurant in zostel(mantra cafe) Is realy breathtaking. Sitting in the restaurant just listening to the waves and having a good meal is already a good start to your day!
This was during diwali and there was a dj night being conducted. The first night was a quiz night followed by musical chairs, the second night was a karaoke night which was super funnn!! They had brought in a dj Mr. Aravind Sankar who kept the entire crowd glued to the event! We met a lot of new people and made some good friends!
The ambience is super super welcoming and makes you feel like home no matter what the weather is! Every little detail is well thought and put together into the favour of the guests and customers!
Their menu is just the right size and covers all of your palette. Our most ordered dishes were chicken sizzlers, paneer sizzler, peanut masala, masala papad, the veg thali, chilly chicken and fried rice. These dishes really stand out in terms of taste, decor and aroma! Also their beverage selection is pretty damn good, all sorts of mocktails that kinda make you forget about the cocktails 😁!!
The entire staff of the team are so very friendly and accommodate you right from the time you enter the property, very down to earth people and humble with their service.
I would personally like to thank the manager Mr Surjeet Singh for taking good care of us and helping us with whatever we needed! He always put his best foot forward and never made us feel like we missed a thing! He guided us with places around to see and also places where you get good seafood! Also would like to thank Mr Bharath for letting us stay an extra night as a member of our group wasn’t feeling well. They took real good care of us.
The service and kitchen staff are super sweet and humbling. They put in all their love when serving you! ❤️
Our diwali and the trip would not have been complete without zostel and their entire team! I would totally recommend this place to anybody visiting Gokarna, to experience best in class food, stay and their people!
