Right from the time you make a reservation when you are greeted by courteous staff to being offered refreshing beverages while you wait to be seated.
The place is done up in a mix of Goan architecture which keeps you busy as you find interesting nooks and crannies to observe.
The Food and service were both excellent. The ambiance was homely . Live Music, specially the portuguese / Konkani favorites makes one nostalgic & enhances the "Goa Experience". A delectable haven for seafood lovers. They donβt charge any tax on drinks.
We particularly tried the Goan menu and found the preparations especially the fish exquisite. Must Try Dishes: Caldo Verde Soup, Prawns Rissios, Stuffed Crab, Tender Coconut Bhaji and Prawns curry, in dessert Caramel custard and bibinca.
Dr. Suhas Awchat is a gracious host and pays personal attention to each guest.
I'm definitely visiting this place again and this time with a bigger group.
Go to this restaurant not just for the food ( which is already legendary and rightly so ) but for the the whole experience.

Being sweetly serenaded at your table adds to the ambiance.
The place is done up in a mix of Goan and Malabar architecture which keeps you busy as you find interesting nooks and crannies to observe. This helps as the waiting to be served may be a tad long because of the unending crowds.
Food is delicious, fresh and with generous portions.

I get mad when am asked if I wish to hv bottled water in any restaurant. My view is that hotels shld earn through their food n not water.
At GPR, I was asked if I wish to hv regular water ... It was a different question and I could say a straight YES.
The staff r very receptive. The food is super awesome.
U can come here with ur fly, with friends .. n enjoy Goan / South Indian / Maharashtrian food Veg / Non Veg... and there's thali too ..
Awesome food, great ambience and superb service. My guests were very happy and they will ever remember the taste and the service. I will always recommend Goa Portugeasa to all
Absolutely loved the place, Awesome ambience and the delectable food. Unequivocally, one of the best in Mumbai.Homely Privileged to meet the founder of the restaurant Dr. Suhas Awchat Sir inspiring personality.. So lively human being.
Thank-you so much Sir
The food is exceptionally good; but what takes the cake is the owner himself walking down to every patron and having a little chat with them! This personal touch made me an instant fan of the place!
My favourite joint with family and friends. Feels very homely, so is the food. Utterly delicious and feels like home cooked. Lots of affection shown by the owner. Great place, a MUST visit.

Absolutely loved the place, the ambience and the delectable food. Unequivocally, one of the best in Mumbai.
Excellent sea food, loved it. Courteous staff. Wonderful place to be for a lunch or dinner
The food was better than any other hotels and the location was better than any other hotels and the delivery was too fast and the location was better and the family crowd was also good
Good place to have a goan cuisine. Food is very tasty over here. Charges are towards high side. Ambience is impressive and staff as well.
My family is in love with this place
Great choice of Food on the menu right from South Indian to Malwani and Goan dishes!! The Bombil Fry and the Goan fish curry with white rice is a great combination to go for! The Kerala food is not up to the mark, simply because they donβt use coconut oil to cook the food.

And the cultural south indian food is also been served here . The owner is also very good person was nice meeting . Do visit here and give your best reviews . ππ
The place has a Goan vibe. The food is delicious, you will enjoy it a lot if you're a sea food lover. Live Music!
This iconic restaurant celebrates 28 successful years and loyal patrons still relish the authentic Goan-Portuguese food that this place is synonymous with. Consistency has been one of the key reasons for this restaurant retaining its popularity. The sea food served is fresh and of the best quality. Each Goan dish is a confluence of flavours and founder and Chef Deepa Awchat has obviously got her spice mixes right.Β The bebinca and dodol notwithstanding, I still prefer my creamy caramel custard to round off my meal. The service is efficient and a meal here, almost always memorable.
I visited goa portuguesa after about 25 years and this iconic restaurant still serves wonderful goan food. They have a seating capacity of close to 30-35 guests and it gives me the fell of goa as we step inside the restaurant.
We orderes chicken vindaloo along with some pav , and 2 freshlime sodas.
Damages to the pocket- Rs 849 (approx US $ 11.25 ) inclusive of 10% service charge and 5% gst.
Overall experience - amazing food , great service and outstanding ambience. I would rate this place 4.5 on 5. Would love to come back again and try their different variety of dishes and also would reccomend it to people who love goan food.
I went with my family and it was worth going there. Food quality is good and yummy food. Live music is like cherry on cake.
Amazing food and service. Their mutton biriyani was delicious and stuffed prawn bombil was to die for. A must visit!

This is my 5th visit to Goa Portuguesa and all of them have been memorable ones. The food, service everything is good. Pork roast and Stuffed Lulu's are must try...π€π€π€
Amazing taste and ambience... superb staff
Goa Portuguese !! The name itself suggests it's a paradise for Goan food.
Perfectly strated with crab kalimiri soup followed by stuff bombil, Andhra chicken and mutton ghee roast. A finger licking recipe with a friendly service makes u lose your count of food. A must try place if you are in and around dadar and mahim.
Will love to come back again and again
Excellent and delicious food with friendly service. Had a great time.
A must try for seafood lovers. Almost all the seafood menu is great to try. Fish curry to prawns fry with aapam and stew are all just really mouth watering. The ambience is decent. Live music is an add-on and you can those lovely vibes. Only thing is that the food is a little heavy on your pockets. On the higher expensive side. But surely a must visit for seafood lovers!
We celebrated our wedding anniversary here..It was memorable experience for us..Owner of this hotel shared brief history about this hotel..Ambience and service was up to the mark..Food taste is awesome..Over all good experience will visit once more...
The crab soup tastes wonders. The ambiance is quiet nice. Waiters are humble and the owner comes to your table and have a small chat. Pro tip: They give a special discount between monday to friday if you speak in Marathi with the owner and staff.
So we went here finally and the food is no doubt nice and fresh we loved the seafood the curries and of course the ambience the owner personally came to us which was nice. But the taste cudv been better

Missing Goa food! Goa Portuguese is the answer, right from food to the interior decor, you cannot afford to miss this joint.
So,here we go......
Catching up for a quick lunch in this particular joint was on our bucket list since a long time.
Wooooahhh! What a day to go..14th Febπ.
We were welcomed with beautiful gesture, flowers for every girl on this special day.
The entry was touching.
So we escorted by Sonu, who made us comfy while we rested in one of the tables.
As thrilled we were , we tried to keep our excitement to ourself.
After rushing through the menu and tempted to try all.sadly,our tiny tummy could not fit them all.
Sonu was our guide and helped us choosing the right dish with smile, grace and courtesy.
We finally settled for:
Bombil Stuffed prawns
Chicken roulde
Portuguese Chicken
Appam
The hot delicious stuffed prawns were jus amazing.
The chicken roulde melted in our mouth and were quite filling.
The Portuguese chicken was prepared in a different style and was going wel along with the most delicious appam ever had.
Scrumptious food.
If I can throw some light on the interior, it reminded Me of mini Goa residing in a small unit. Suseghad feeling.
Drinks are not taxed.
Music takes ur mind to a relax Goa beach/joint.
The staff is humble and polite.
We went in the afternoon and was informed in the evening a guitarist plays beautiful numbers.
Request is taken into consideration.
The want for having food kept on increasing but our tummy could not fit in More.
We had a chat with the owner of the joint and later captured the moment with a quick click.the man and his talks were interesting.
Over all,a lovely experience.
Highly recommended.
Cheers!
Had their coconut cashew sukke curry with appam. It was simply amazing. Even for a vegetarian, I had a blast. The dishes are full of flavour and the staff is amazing too. Also drank the orange mint cooler ehich was fantastic as well. It was a great experience. Definitely worth going to over and over again.
Fantastic place...food was superb, the ower was talkin to each and every customer... perfect hospitality, perfect ambiance...a must visit restaurant
Malwani fish fry great for feeding toddlers
Captain will suggest good dish. He suggested kothibeer Wadi its awesome. Ambiance was good and worth for money.
Spice rubbed Rawas was super fresh and tasty
I've been here many times. The restaurant owner is so down to earth...hes such a sweetheart. Also, I love the way they have people who play music here from table to table.
Good authentic goan food, courteous staff, ambience is great, loved it..
Must try Chef's special fish cream soup...
This is without a doubt one of the highlight places in Mumbai! The star of the show is undoubtedly the food. They have mastered the art of cooking, and every meal is an explosion of crazy delicious flavors. I recently tried the Pork and Crab starter, and it was genuinely one of the most delightful things I've ever eaten.
The staff deserves a special mention β super friendly and attentive. Their warmth adds to the overall charm of the place. Don't forget to tip them for their outstanding friendliness; it truly enhances the experience.
And let's talk about the guitarist! That old man plays so well that he instantly fills the entire room with joy. His music adds a unique touch to the ambiance, making the dining experience even more memorable.
I've visited this place twice, and both times were sublime in every aspect. No wonder why Bollywood Celebs just love being here. A huge 5-star rating for delivering consistently outstanding food, service, and ambiance. A must-visit restobar!" π½οΈπΈπ
Had a wonderful time. Visited this place the second time here and loved the Christmassy Ambience . As usual enjoyed the food. Ee ordered Pork roast and Tisiriyo sukhe , Mutton Saoji with bhakri .
Good quality food.
The owner was talking to each customer personally which gave it a personal touch.
Variety of food. Crab was the best. There was live performance , a guitarist πΈ. That made the evening more special.
Had an amazing time in Goa Portuguesa!
One of the old restaurants here at Mahim.
Amazing food, great ambience, live music, and great service just makes this place more happening. We tried Chicken Chettinaad with Appam, Prawns, and Rawas here which was totally worth it!
Good place for seafood lovers.π¦π¦π¦ The food here is authentic goan cuisine. As you enter, the ambiance transports you to Goa with all the colourful tiles & glasses. The dishes are mouth watering. Host are sweet and welcoming. Youβll get all homely feel.
Itβs an amazing place to go with friends and family. I recommend all to try the Crab soup, itβs the Best, and best tisaraya curry. Even got a cute Ganpati idol for my birthday. And itβs very pocket friendly.
Nice experience for seafood lovers. It has a variety of dishes with different regions. Bit pricey, but it all went well if you celebrate any event. I really like the crab and prons soup, must try. You will also get a chance to meet the owner, he is very cherish person.
I've been a frequent visitor since 2007.
The cuisine has always been Excellent.
If one enjoys seafood then it's the right restaurant to visit for the pleasure of your taste buds.
King size Andra Prawns is a must eat dish in the menu for seafood lovers.
A variety of cocktails and mocktails are available to choose as per customer choice.
The waiters have a courteous behaviour & will guide the customer if it's his first visit.
The owner walks down every table to inquire about the food quality and customer satisfaction.
Ohh this place is unforgettable. The food and the taste is mind blowing.
If you're looking for Maharashtrian cuisine or Andra food or flavours of south, then you will definitely be in for a treat.
Absolutely love the food here. If you love Goan or Maharashtrian food, this place is a must try. They serve you with variety of non-vegetarian food. The dishes are mouth watering. Host are sweet and welcoming. Youβll get all homely feel.
One of the best food ive had in mumbai and absolutely the best service in mumbai! Loved it β€οΈβ€οΈ
Food was good, bit over priced hence 1 star less to compensate the value for money.
The seafood was very fresh.
The owner gives a very personal feel by visiting every table.
Very good atmosphere created by the live music.
Would love to visit again.
Goan ambience. Flowery shirt waiters. Super awesome and tasty food. A must visit. They have started maharashtrian and south indian food as well at this outlet and is really authentic food. 5 stars all the way..
Lovely ambiance with great food taste.. service is little slow, but thatβs fine when you are enjoying with your loved onesβ¦
we have visit there on their 35th hotel anniversary.. owner is so polite and friendly person.. I like the way he gone their every table introduced himself in very different way..
Will definitely visit soon..
The closest it has come to authentic Goan food... The rawa fry can still be better but the fish curry is something that almost tastes like the one you get in Goa. The service and ambience is also really good. You really feel like you are in the bylanes of south Goa.
This has been one of my favorite restobars in Mumbai. Good place for seafood lovers. Its a cozy place serves Konkan cuisines. I would go with 4 stars, but one more star for meeting the owner, who has passion for food & food lovers :-)
All the best for newly added ventures, Diva Maharastracha & South Indian
Nice warm place. Interesting owner.
Rotis / breads are average. Pav that we ordered with Usal was actually not upto standard.
All the vegetables and Usal were served piping hot and all were just awesome.
Sweet Sevai was not upto mark.
Live singer was going from table to table and was singing good Bollywood songs. That was nice.
The food here is authentic goan cusine. As you enter, the ambiance transports you to Goa, which is a great getaway from the bustling Mumbai life. The waiters are extremely polite, informative, and have good recommendations. The bar setup looks amazing. They have drinks and a variety of food.
This place offers Great Authentic Goan , Malvan and South Indian food. Service staff is quite friendly, The owner is quite friendly as well and loves to interact with his. Guests as well.
