The most authentic Goan prawn curry that I’ve tasted in Pune after a very very long time.
The rawa masala prawns and the bombil fry was absolutely delicious.
Their quantity was great too and not mention the quality.
If you love Goan food then this is the best place in town.
One of the best Goan style seafood restaurant in Pune.

Good food worth the money and waiting time. True authentic goan fish curry. Must also try seradura and the tender coconut pannacota in desserts
100% authentic bebinca cake!! True Goa feel in Pune! Waiting to try other dishes from this place, especially the fish which I've heard is also really good.
Visited this place with family. We ordered Surmai fry and surmai Thali. Taste was amazing, especially prawns curry and solkadhi tasted really amazing. Staff that served food was pleasant.
Super tasty excellent goan sea food at Vernekars, Karvenagar, Pune- Pomfret fry, Prawns tawa fry, prawns curry with goan rice & their special red chutney!!! Excellent personalised service was also provided by Chaitanya & Ajinkya Vernekar!!!
This is the place you should go to eat sea food. Everything on the menu is kick ass... Absolutely amazing food.
amazing food.
Try chanak fry or chanak thali.
Mynonly suggestion would be that make sure every element in thali is hot.
This is small place and clean. Once you enter the place, feels like you are in Goa food joint. All the staff are in Goa beach design shirts. Walls are painted with beaches design. Typical Goa music which we have on shacks.
Once you sit in table, they will welcome you with mini kokam juice. Menu have lots of options of sea food. Me and Wife ordered Fish Surmai thali and Prawns curry thali. We also ordered Fish fingers.
Trust me all the preparations were just perfect. Taste was just awesome. Tandalchi bhakri was highlight of thali. Surely recommended this place for sea food lovers.
Vernekar's has become my go-to place for authentic goan seafood.
A cosy place with various depictions of Goa and typical Goan background music, they serve seasonal varieties of fish occasionally.
While the fish thali is to die for, I personally would recommend eating your fill of the scrumptious fish fries.
My recommendations:
* Any of the fish fries
* Stuffed bombil if it's available
* Fish/prawns curry
If you're a little short on cash, I'd recommend skipping the thali and going for à la carte...
We went to Vernekar's starving. We ordered non alcoholic beers-ginger and cranberry, surmai rawa fry, prawns rawa fry, surmai thali and prawns curry rice thali. The food was great in taste. Not so spicy, even children can easily indulge on it.
But we did mistake by ordering fish fry separately, as they serve fry in thali as well. Nevermind, we were hungry 🤣.
Though the menu is limited, overall it's good choice to enjoy Goan cuisine in Pune.
At the first look, it doesn't seem like much. But the delicious food makes up for the difficulty you might experience in finding this hidden treasure island. If you want to eat sumptious, authentic Goan fish... You must visit this place. It was worth the drive and I would definitely visit again. My taste buds were shocked to taste such lovely food. The prices are reasonable, so everyone must pay a visit!
We have been there many times and every visit was pleasant. Also our stomachs got happiey. We tried their every dishes except platter. I must say every dish is nice, up to mark. The only thing they can improve is the ambience.
Went here on Sunday night for dinner. We arrived here at 8 and got a table immediately. They served welcome drink.
What we had-
1)Surmai rawa fry which had 2 pieces of surmai fish which were properly done. The taste was amazing. The fish was fresh and was tasty too.
2)Prawns curry had about 8 to 9 pieces & was amazing. Sufficient for 2-3 persons.
3)Mirgunda papad - It was crunchy and less oily. Loved it.
The service was a bit slow as there was rush. We had to wait for about 15 mins for the main course to be served. Wish that they improve their service and maintain the taste and quality.
Overall a very good place for seafood.
Small place remotely located map guides to perfectly to the location. Nice food good quantity and quality. Gives you goa feel of the shack at the place. Recommend to try

Mr. Vernekar and family have started this place a year back. Had the opportunity to visit their small shack in karve nagar yesterday. We ordered a bombil fry. Prawn tawa fry, solkadi and small portion of prawn curry and rice. It was sufficient for 2 people. The bombil was tawa fried and with bare minimum ingredients. No ginger garlic. Same was the case with the prawn curry. No garlic or onion. The portions were good. The pricing was right. The taste was homely and devoid of any over powering masalas. Though I felt that the prawns in the prawn curry were far overcooked I must encourage fish lovers to try this place for a great fish experience. Mr. Vernekar is a simple man who has created this awesome place ably supported by his sons and daughter in law. The service is good and the brief interaction with mr. vernekar was insightful. A fish or sea food meal is a pricey affair and hence when we have a place like Vernekar’s which balances taste pricing and portions well, it’s a must visit place. I would be going back again to try crab curry and other items which I could not. It’s a small place so pls reach in time to avoid the waiting. Mr vernekar - thank you !!
Must try for seafood lovers. Authentic Goan food. We tried surmai thali with pomfret fish try. The fish was tossed on tava with some tangy taste sauce. Super loved the food. Clean and quick service.
Amazing in taste as always
The best Sea food available in Pune..
Recommend to all who loves Fish.
Everything here is blended in Goan Love.
I just love to visit here again and again
They have the best fish recipe. Must try prawns fry, bombil fry and their desert. Ofcourse continue with thali.. best fish i have eaten in Pune.
This is by far the best fish thali I've had in Pune. I had told my husband before coming to this place, that I've given up hopes of eating fish outside in a restaurant. Till the thali came, I was hesitant. I had the Fish Curry and Rice - Prawns Thali & my husband ordered the Goan Fish Thali - Surmai.
Both the thalis were delicious. The prawn curry was mouth watering and the prawns fry were just fantastic. This kind of food and the spices and the taste I've had only at 3 other places - My grandmother's place, my parents place and Highway Gomantak in Mumbai. I will definitely be frequenting this place to fulfill my seafood cravings!
Please keep up the food quality and hygiene levels and you'll definitely have an assured returning customer in us!!! Can't wait to try the pomfret and crabs!
I did not visit the place I had ordered food from zomato and it was just Amazing.. M always looking for good sea food and unfortunately Pune has disappointed me a lot..but with this place m all happy again.. I had ordered kingfish rawa fry, fish quality was super nice ( masala could have been little more spicy & tasty).
M not a chicken lover but if chicket Xacuti here made me fall in love
Too good and next time I will visit the place than ordering 🥰
Authentic Goan Taste! Took my parents out for dinner and Dad recalled the Goan Curry he had in 1991 in Goa! Long time.. But never been so true to its taste. The fish and prawns are fresh to eat. Thanks Mr. Vernekar and Family for the kind service. Hope to be back soon. Best Wishes!
Nice seafood place. Liked the Surmai rava fry , prawns curry and Solkadhi.yummy. simple ambience, decent speedy service.attentive staff.Recommended.

इतके दिवस कुठे होतं हे !!!!
काही दोष काढायला जागाच नाही ....
फिश म्हणजे जीव की प्राण आपला...आणि फिश साठी नवनवीन ठिकाणे सतत शोधत असतो मी...vernekars गोवन फिश करी चे सातत्याने पोसिटिव रेव्ह्यूज वाचून तिकडे मोर्चा वळवायचा असं ठरवलं!!
कर्वेनगर भागात साधारण ८-१० टेबल असलेले हे छोटेखानी हॉटेल.
✅अतिशय स्वच्छ आणि नीटनेटके
✅उत्तम सर्व्हिस आणि स्टाफ.मालक स्वतः काय हवे नको ते बघतात.
✅ बॅकग्राउंड मध्ये गोवन म्युझिक जे ऐकून आपल्याला खरोखरच गोव्यात आल्यासारखे वाटते.
✅अस्सल गोवन टेस्ट, अप्रतिम क्वालिटी
आम्ही १ सुरमई थाळी आणि १ चिकन शाकुटी थाळी मागवल्या होत्या.
१. सुरमई थाळी मध्ये - २ सुरमई फ्राय चे मोठे पिस, सुरमई करी, कोबीची भाजी, सुकट चटणी, अजून १ खास गोवान चटणी, तीवळ, सोलकढी, तांदूळ भाकरी आणि भात !!

कष्याबश्या २ थाळ्या संपवल्या आणि ढेकर देत देत उठलो....
बऱ्याच दिवसांनी एवढी उत्तम फिश थाळी खायला मिळाली

A perfect place for those who love to eat authentic sea food . Fresh seafood + amazing taste.
So far the best sea food restaurant in town. Awesome taste, courteous staff and great ambiance. Owner is also very helpful in suggesting dishes. Other than regular fish dishes Must try - Fish Fingers, Prawns Curry, Serradura

The food was just amazing. Every single dish that we ordered was cooked very very well. The staff serving us gave us some really good suggestions on what to order. Would love to visit this place again and definitely recommending others as well.
Concise menu but everything is delicious. Costs circa Rs 400 per person.
Worth visiting.
A small and cozy place in a lane at Karve Nagar, Pune, gives you the feel of sitting in a goan restaurant as they have managed to give the place a goan look and feel.
A perfect place for fish lovers as the fish here is amazing. The Pomfret was lip-smacking and Prawns fry and Surmai fry were amazing as well. It was a delight to have the fish curry (we had prawns curry) and rice. It had the perfect taste and spice. They had a fish chutney which was really delicious.
We ordered two deserts at the end, one was bebinca - milk, egg and jaggery cake served with vanilla ice cream which was sort of ok.
And the other one was serradura - cream with a layer of biscuit crunch on top which was really good.
The service was good and the servers were cooperative and polite.

Definitely one of the top Sea Food places in Pune! Fresh and tasty, very home like preparation. Typical Goan Hindu fare mostly, taste of curries is intricate, very coconut based slightly tangy because of the kokum I guess. Fried fish was very good too - tried a Rechado Masala and their regular Tawa fried. Not a very expansive menu and definitely not expensive either. You'll just find enough variety to order which is great, it also helps the kitchen to focus on things they need to do right. I love the khanawals of Kokan and Goa. Vernekar's is up there with the best. The place is simple, neat and clean. They've tried to decorate the place to give it a Goa vibe, which works. The staff too is courteous and knowledgeable, of course efficient. The owner's family too seems to be involved which is great, I did see one of the younger generation interact with a few tables and the counter too was someone who looked like the family running the show. It is such a delight to have owners being hands on at restaurants. We had a Surmai Thali with amazing Rice Flour Bhakaris and the fried fish earlier mentioned. They welcome you with a cutting shot of Tiwal, a spicy, Sour and sweet kokum drink, which is also available per glass at 20₹ and the staple Solkadhi at 40₹ per glass. Overall an amazing experience, far better than some of the famous and ultra expensive sea food places in Pune. We were very tempted to also have Tisrya (clams) Masala but because it was lunch and there wasn't a place to sleep on offer ;) we'll have it the next time, which isn't too far away. Compliments to the Vernekar's, you guys are doing a great job of spreading joy through your food.

Amazing fresh fish varieties, worth the money
Excellent quality of service and specially the ambience like Goa with deserts at the end
We visited this place with family. We had ordered Chanak fry, nikhil masala fry, Surmai and Prawns Curry rice. The taste of masalas were excellent with no garlic and onion used and They had really very fresh fishes which has very soft flesh. Special mention for the Coconut chutney served and Sol Kadhi.. Prawns curry was too good. Everyone enjoyed the food. Kokam sarbat shot and mirgund (konkani papad) was complimentary.. Service was good too
I ordered pompfret thali. I was doubtful about the size of the fish. They showed me the fish. It was fresh and perfect. They served the dishes and I was quite impressed with the quantity. The prawn curry had authentic taste. Pompfret fry was outstanding and fresh. Solkadi was as good as homemade. Overall, truly enjoyed the dish.
Next, on recommendation, ordered the sweet dish. I dont remember the name. But it tasted like cheese cake(drool)
Amazing experience. Will surely visit again.
Ok with ambiance but good and tasty food
If you desire for a taste of Goa in Pune you can head to this quaint little place tucked away in a bye-lane in Karve Nagar. It's definitely one of those hidden gems. The menu is limited but the food is homely and authentic. They deliver on their promise of fish and Goa. I ordered a prawn thali and was blown away by the prawn curry. Is definitely worth a visit.
Very cozy and homely place that will blow your mind if you’re a seafood lover! Preparing good seafood is art and very few have inherited it today! In the hush and bush of F&B landscape of Western Pune, this places comes across as a humble yet brilliant surprise! A must try for their authentic kokani cuisine.. More power! cheers!
One word for this place......Simply Woow😋😋😋
Most authentic Goan fish thali I ever tasted. just loved the taste of each and every food items.
Prawns rava fry- Must have
Pomfret thali and surmai thali- 5/5
Quite authentic taste, fresh fish good choice of menu, minimalist decor and most importantly good attitude of staff and management. Keep it up guys.
Vernekar a small fish curry restaurant in the garage but food is awesome. As soon as u reach the doorstep u r blown away with the smell of fried fish n ur just pulled inside. The staff is very coordial and so is the owner..
we were given a welcome drink as soon as we sat on our tables..ambience is very goan..
Then we ordered for bombil fry...crisp n masala was just perfect..
There are two types of thalia...one with bhakri n one without bhakri...
We had taken surmai thalis..n the best part is u hv the option of taking surman curry or prawns curry..n we obviously opted for prawns curry...being a goan I like my curry to be perfectly balanced..n it was just the way I wanted. Fish was just perfectly fried and very fresh..
N the cherry on the cake was the dessert...serradura..I had eaten in a Goan restaurant...n it was exactly the same..creamy..crusty....jusssst perffect...
We wanted to taste modak icecream but our souls and stomachs both were full. So we left Leaving something for next time....
Best place for authentic Goan food in Pune.
Owner is welcoming and polite.Staff is very courteous and quick.
Goan food with Goan mood.
Now Goa is so close to Pune.
Amazing place hidden in one if the small lanes if Karve Nagar. Fish here is so damn delicious and fresh. Even though the restaurant is in the parking, you'll feel as if you're sitting in a regular Goan place. Service is good as well. The waiters are damn patient. I think the prices are bit too high, but worth the taste. 👍🏽👍🏽
A must try for fish lovers. Home made style yummy food. Small place but the best sea food restaurant in Pune, quality of the food is awesome and at reasonable price.
If you want to taste an authentic goan taste /recipes for see food then it is THE place. You can try anything from the menu and it will be good. Run by a family where everyone in the family slog to make sure taste and quality are consistent. You will not have any kind of issues as on may have when trying see food typically.
Its time to give appreciation, visited multiple times and food was delicious, authentic goan food. I love mix thali. Must try! I'm sure u will get "KAMALA BAI" taste here. Bye the way kamalabai is famous resto in Mapasa.
Great option for authentic Goan Saraswat seafood. Every fish was fresh and hence tasty. Staff is very courteous,and service is quick. Ek baar aao, baar baar aaoge!!😊😋

Generally I hesitate eating seafood in restaurants apart from eating at home, as I have been pretty unlucky trying seafood 😏...
Still while browsing on Zomato had came across Vernekar's Goan Fish Curry, reviews were great, so went for try here...
Talked with the owner, very passionate person, this outlet is ran by family and started first as delivery only outlet, now they have started serving as well...
We tried Prawns Rava Fry, Promfret Fry Thali and Surmai Fry Thali, thali comprises bread of your choice rice bhakri or chapati, coconut chutney, sukkat (dried baby prawn) chutney, typical konkani fryams, prawn curry coconut based, solkadi and rice...
Prawn Rava Fry was awesome prawns were fresh and nicely prepared...thali was awesome too both Surmai and Promfret frys were great in taste, loved curry especially...
For dessert we tried Goan speciality and my favourite Bebinka cake...another good dish...
Vernekar's is good food place and food served is with passion...
Good option for seafood...
With Namrata Sapkal
A really quiet and cozy place near a crowded Potnis parisar. The owner was welcoming and polite and visited each table to check on the guests's needs. Each dish had the authentic Goan touch of mild flavor and texture. Curries are not made spicy unnecessarily. Even Chicken Xacuti is on the menu
The Fish Fry coating was quite tasty and gave enough crunch to the fish while the fish was equally tender and was cooked well. The Tandalachi Bhakri was really good and tasted really well with the curry.
I loved the look of the Fish Thali and the accompaniments included in it. Kurdai was offered which is not offered by many popular fish outlets inspite of being in Maharashtra.
The only thing that bothered me was that they only include one Bhakri per Thali and you have to pay extra to have more. But rates are reasonable.
The place is a must visit!
Great food, authentic goan food, the owner is very polite, ambiance is okok but dosent matter for foodies ,must vist place for goan curry lovers, solkadi and tiwal was awesome. Keepitup guys👍
Recently visited this place and it's a must try!
The food is so authentic and flavourful. They also recommend appropriate dishes in case you're confused. The fish was fresh and clean.
Ambience - 4/5
Food - 5/5
Service - 5/5
I had the Pomfret Thali which came with amazing prawns curry, prawns rawa fry and Bombil rawa fry. Also tried the sweet dish - Bebinca, which was just the apt amount of sweet and tasty. They have a refreshing welcome drink and the solkadhi serves as an awesome palate cleanser.
Over all this, place is superb!
Most amazing Goan fish preparation in town. The ambience and the taste takes you to Goa instantly. Vernekar family personally monitors and manages the place and they are so warm and hospitable that you feel like going there again and again. Prawns Surmai Rava fry are mind blowing but do try out the white snapper rava fry which is not easily available and it’s an awesome preparation. The cera dura dessert made by their family member is a sheer feast to the tastebuds. It’s a must try and I assure you can’t resist without having a repeat round. Keep up the great work. You guys have got Pune and Goa closer.
A new joint has started same place (backyard of a bungalow in Karvenagar) where there was a cafe.
New decor suits the cuisine "Goan" and the servers also are dressed same
Fish variety was decent and taste is nice.
We tried Pomfret dry, Prawns fry and curry. Delicious.
Prices are decent too.
Enjoy!!

I visited this place with my wife for an evening meal recently, having spontaneously decided that we both wanted a fish thali, and having heard repeatedly from several independent friends that Vernekar's did amazing food.
Unfortunately having gone out without our phones, we didn't know exactly where it was, so we took a rik to nearby Alankar Police Chowk and spent a while walking around, asking people and trying to find the place. On the verge of giving up, we bumped into an old friend of my wife's who led us straight to the restaurant, which as it turns out would have been a 2-3 minute walk from where we were dropped off.
And we're both glad to say it was a good job we didn't give up. The place is very basic, but really very nice at the same time, and that is part of what makes it so charming. The staff are immensely friendly, and they spent some time chatting to us. But the best thing of all was the food. We've been to Goa several times, but honestly most things we had there were nowhere near as good as what we had at Vernekar's. (Only one time did anything come remotely close, but Vernekar's is much nicer.) I can't begin to describe how amazing the food was.
We ordered two Rice Fish Curries, one with just surmai (kingfish), and one with surmai fry and prawn curry. It also comes with a sol khadi, some other small drink which is great for washing the food down, rice, dried fish, and a chutney. We also ordered an extra bhakri to share. My wife is slightly allergic to prawns but she still kept having the my curry, it was so tasty, and also nice and spicy without being too spicy. The same with the surmai fry, the masala it was cooked in was unbelievably tasty, and the quality of the fish was excellent.
The price is very reasonable indeed. Sure there are cheaper places but the food there is nowhere near as good as it is here. We spent Rs. 800 for the two of us and were left extremely satisfied at the end, not to mention a little full too. A few days later, I still remember the flavours vividly, and both of us can't wait to go back and eat there again.
This place is a real treat for all the seafood lovers!!
They have nycely decorated all walls with nostalgic Goan moods... You are welcomed with an amazing welcome drink made out of kokam, which is very good for appetite as well. Coming to the starters & main course, you won't get such a wonderful & top quality seafood with pocket friendly rates anywhere in Pune!
Try out their special Prawns curry, Surmai & Pomfret fry....
Ask out for "Special Goan Chanak Fry" as well....
Solkadhi is also all time best.... Supperb hospitality by the staff & owners themselves!
Do give a visit once...
Went to this place for the first time today.
Its a small place with limited seating area.
Was served a complimentary kokam drink which was tasty.
Ordered Pomfret Fish Thali. Took around 20 min for them to prepare the food.
The pomfret was huge in size and really tasty.
The curry was also tasty and texture was good. The sukat chatni with the thali was also tasty.
Overall a good experiance.

Who doesn't like going to goa?? 😍
But it's too hot right now for goa, but never so for Goan food. I am a huge fan of Goan curries and have visited many places in pune looking for the same. So when I read about this place, I had already bookmarked it then 😋
We reached there around 1 and we were the only ones, it being a weekday. It's a small place right now, with 10 tables maximum. I am saying right now because I am sure they might need to move to a bigger place soon😊
The walls of the place are printed with goan things like the beach, water sports, churches, etc. Small articial flowers here and there give the place a cosy vibe.
Though I love fish, we did not order many dishes, as then no dish gets complete justice. One can visit many times to taste other items. They have a small menu card, literally a card, which I find practical, serving only the things which they can perfectly.
Before we could order we were served an appetizer in a small glass which looked like kokam sarbat but tasted a bit strong. I forgot the name.
Then we ordered surmai curry rice. I was happy that I didn't need to order chapati with the curry. Curry is best eaten with rice. According to the servers suggestion we got a surmai fry and prawns curry in the thali.
The thali contained a surmai fry, two small prawns fry, a prawns curry, chutney, rice, prawns sukat, mirgund.
*The surmai was awesomely fried, properly marinated, brilliant.
*The rice was soft, perfect for the curry.
*Solkadhi: perfectly balanced. Loved it.
*The star of the meal: prawns curry. It took me to goa. Lip-smacking. I was just sad when I was full, because I couldn't order one more curry.
Only there is a little lack of ventilation when one sits inside, then when the kitchen makes rawa fry, it becomes a tiny bit uncomfortable.
Otherwise everything was nice and will be going there again obviously.
A simple and authentic place. Excellent goan food and a very courteous staff. Very good taste and extremely soft on digestion. A true value for money and a must visit place.
Best place for authentic Goan Fish curry rice 👍👌. Fishes are fresh and served in authentic Goan receipies. Restaurant is cozy and clean. Service is good and owners personally take care of service.

वेरणेकर्स गोवन फिश करी, कर्वे नगर Vernekar's Goan Fish Curry, Karve Nagar
खूप महिन्यांपूर्वी वेरणेकरांची टेक अवे सी फूडची पोस्ट पाहीली होती. त्यानंतर एकदम काही दिवसांपूर्वी त्यांची हॉटेलची पोस्ट पाहीली. तेव्हा पासूनच तिकडं जायचा बेत मनात शिजत होता.
मला खूप जवळ असून पण जायचा योग येत नव्हता, फायनली काल तो आला.
साधारण ९:२० च्या सुमारास तिथे गेलो. तब्बल १०-१५ मिनिटं वेटिंग आणि नंतर तितकाच वेळ जेवण प्रत्यक्ष टेबलवर यायला असं पकडून अर्धा तास गेला.
आंबियन्स बद्दल बोलायचं झालं, तर टिपिकल गोवन हॉटेल सारखा आहे. भिंतीवर समुद्र, बीचेस, मासे यांची चित्रं रेखाटली आहेत.
आत पाऊल टाकल्याबरोबरच मस्त फिश करीचा दरवळणारा वास मन उल्हासित करून टाकतो.
त्याच्या सोबतीला गोवन कोंकणी भाषेतील गाणी अगदी गोव्यात असल्याचा फील देतात. थोडी फार गाणी आपल्याला समजतात, पण त्या भाषेतला गोडवा मनाला आनंद देऊन जातो.
एका छोट्या किचन मध्ये वेरणेकर्स स्वतः जेवण बनवतात आणि आपल्याला सर्व्ह करतात. एखादा गोवन माणूस रोज स्वतःच्या घरात ज्या चवीचं आणि ज्या क्वालिटीचं जेवण जेवेल अगदी तेच आपल्याला वाढलं जातं.
मी आणि आमच्या हिने सुरमई थाळीच सांगितली.
थाळी मधल्या करी मध्ये प्रॉन्स किंवा सुरमईचीच करी असा ऑप्शन आहे.
गोवन फिश करी बरोबर तांदळाचीच भाकरी ऑर्डर करावी.
जेवण येईपर्यंत आम्हाला छोट्या ग्लास मधून "तिवळ" देण्यात आलं.
लालसर गुलाबी रंगाची जणू सोलकढीच ती.
कोकमचा आंबटपणा आणि मिरचीचा ठसका दोन्ही होता त्यात.
एक उत्तम अपेटायझर म्हणून बेस्ट.
एव्हाना भूक चांगलीच खवळली होती. फायनली टेबलावर ताटं लागल्यावर जीवात जीव आला.
थाळी मध्ये सुकट, गोवन चटणी, प्रॉन्स/सुरमई करी, सुरमई फ्राय, मिरगुंडाचे पापड, फिशकरी, सोलकढी, चपाती/भाकरी आणि भात असतो.
कांदा देत नाहीत, नंतर मागून घ्यावा लागतो.
सर्वात पहिला मी फिशकरीची टेस्ट घेतली.
जिभेवर ठेवल्यावर २ सेकंदात जाणवलं की याची टेस्ट परफेक्ट आहे. अगदी गोव्यात असते तशी.
जसजशी अजून खात गेलो तसतसे त्यातले एकेक फ्लेवर्स उलगडत गेले. कधी क्रिमी, तर कधी कोकमासारखी आंबट गोड.
एकदम बॅलन्सड होती. प्रचंड आवडली.
करी मध्ये ५ लहान आकाराचे प्रॉन्स होते. नीट शिजलेले होते, पण किंचित ड्राय वाटले.
फिशफ्राय अतिशय सुंदर होता. कोटिंग प्रॉपर भाजेलेलं होतं आणि खपली पडत नव्हती.
माश्याचा फ्रेशनेस मी नेहमी त्याच्या स्किनला वास येतो की नाही यावरून ठरवतो. इकडे पण ते चेक केलं. अजिबात वास नव्हता.
तांदळाची भाकरी मोठी आणि मऊसूत. दोन भाकऱ्या सहज रिचवल्या जातात.
ताटाला एकच भाकरी येते, एक मागवावी लागली.
भात थोडा अजून मऊ पाहिजे होता म्हणजे खाताना जास्त मजा आली असती.
एकंदरीत आम्हाला आलेला अनुभव जबरदस्त होता.
घरी आल्यानंतर सुद्धा राहून राहून फिशकरीची आठवण येत होती.
कोणताही रिव्ह्यू मी नेहमी दुसरे दिवशी टाकतो (दुसरे दिवशी सकाळी त्रास झाला नाही तर).
इथे खाल्ल्यानंतर आज कोणताही त्रास झाला नाही.
तर मंडळी, वेरणेकर्स किचनला अवश्य भेट द्या.
जेवण खरंच खूप छान आहे. तुम्हाला नक्की आवडेल.

After seeing all the amazing reviews on #PEO we decided to visit this place and ended up at Vernekar's Goan Fish Curry for a sunday lunch..
It's one cosy & small place, about 5 to 6 tables which would accommodate 20 odd people at one time.. As they serve authentic #GoanFood, the surrounding wall were painted with all the remarkable places in goa, which was nice.. I liked how they have kept this place simple yet serve some really good stuff! Menu is short but covers most of the special goan food!! #JavanMast
As we arrived, we were served with थंड थंड #Tival. This is sweet & spicy version of normal kokum drink.. This can be served both as a appetizer or a digestive drink after food.. I like it as a welcome drink..#BestForSummers #MasteEkdum
Prawns Rawa Fry
Then, coming to my most_est fav dish in whole world😍 Thank God they serve this heavenly yummy, tasty, delectable prawns, well marinated & shallow fried to perfection.. Prawns were fresh, no smell at all! On 1st bite itself I was like, किती भारी अाहे! खूप खूप खूपच चविष्ट..
Bombil Fry
As, quoted by Deven (as don't eat bombil)
चव छान होती पण हलकासा तेलाचा वास होता.. घाण्या वरच्या तेलात फ्राय करतो अशी समजूत काढण्यात अली. मास्याला उग्र वास नव्हता म्हणजेच मासा फ्रेश होता हे नक्की. उत्कृष्ट मॅरिनेशन होते व कुरकुरीत बोंबील खाण्यात मजाच वेगळी!
& Surmai Thali
-----------------
Surmai Fry
Again, perfectly marinated & cooked! This was crispy on outside & soft, moist from inside ☺ #Surmai piece was medium in size and not very thin also..
Goan Fish Curry
Their #speciality & a staple food of goan's.. It was packed with authentic flavors, was served warm, had a tangy taste too.. No oil floating on top, healthy & delicious..
Mirgunda Papad
Also known as #PohaPapad.. We call it ठसका पापड cha.. खाल्ल्याचं क्षणी ठसका नाही लागला तर तोह ठसका पापड कसला.. मस्त होता. किती पण ठसका येउदेत पापड खायचा मोह काही आवरत नाही!
Rice Bhakri could have be lil more soft, it was OK!
Lal Chutney - उत्कर्ष
Sukat Chutney - विशेष
Total Bill - Rs. 920. Total VFM!!
We missed on #serradura, as It was not mentioned in the menu.. Now a visit is pending just for serradura..😊
#Recommended #MustVisit #FeastOn
Want to try authentic Goan food in Pune?
This is the place you should be visiting without having a second thought in your mind.
You will find actual Goan touch and authenticity in the food served. Tival served as welcome drink is really awesome. Best part is owners themselves prepare and serve food.
I visited the restaurant on 26th Apr to celebrate my fiancees birthday.
For lunch we tried:
Surmai Rawa fry
Prawns Rawa fry
Surmai Curry
Prawns Curry
Surmai Thali

Vernekar's Goan Fish Curry - Karve Nagar, Pune
Dear Goa,
except for the bikinis, beers and beaches, we have someone like you right here in Pune when it comes to authentic Goan food.
Ladies and gentleman, there is this cute cosy place tucked away in the by-lanes of Karvenagar which serves authentic and very tasty Goan delicacies, is the brainchild of the Vernekar family. And their passion and love for Goan food comes to the table in the form of delectable seafood, chicken Xacutis and even traditional Goan desserts.
Me along with Nimish Joshi, Nikhil Sugwekar, Chinmay Milind Morgaonkar went to this food den headed by the polite and warm host Ajinkya Vernekar. Despite an outside temperature of 42.6 degrees, this place situated in the backyard of a building is properly covered and surprisingly comfortably cool so if any of you wish to have lunch here, do not be afraid of the terrible heat outside.
The menu is short and simple with a listing of thalis and a la carte items that are moderately priced. After a nice conversation and with some inputs from Ajinkya, we opted for the following:
#Tival - the #WelcomeDrink made with Kokam extract and chillies. Perfect balance of sweet and spice.
1. #PrawnsRavaFry: #MustHave
2. #PrawnsTavaFry: #MustHave
3. #BombilFry: #PleaseOrder
4. #PrawnsCurry: This amazing dish with rice is simply amazing with good quantity of prawns.
5. #SurmaiFishCurry: Well-cooked and delicious.
6. #Solkadhi - #Mandatory cooler for the summers
7. #SukatChutney - Tiny dried prawns mixed with garlic chutney makes for some delicious cruncy accompaniment with your food.
#Dessert:
We wanted to taste the famous #Bebinca but it was not available. However, Ajinkya suggested that we try the #Serradura. And this turned out to be #simplysuperb. Serradura is traditional Portuguese dessert that came to Goa along with them and has made its way into the menu of Goan people. 'Serradura' literally means sawdust and the dessert is such a simple thing - Just cream, sugar, set in the fridge and served with finely crushed Marie biscuit 'sawdust'. Trust me, this is #amazing and you will thank me for it!! #PleaseOrder
I got extra parcel for my home too!!
#MyVerdict - What you waiting for?!! just plan and go to Vernekar's Goan Fish Curry!!
p.s. it gets crowded on weekends so call them up or plan accordingly.
Secondly, park vehicles properly in that lane. The neighbors are complaining already.
#Location: 56, Darekar House, SwastiShri Soc. Cosmos Bank Lane, Near Alankar Police Chowky. Relax.....its on #GoogleMaps :D

Ordered Prawns thali and a Surmai Thali. Fish was fresh and food served was delicious. Definitely recommended for someone who's craving for authentic Goan cuisine. Service was excellent too. Certainly worth a try.
This was a last minute decision as I took a u turn and parkwd my car outside of this small little place in a basement floor of an apartment.
Goa always brings a smile on the face and if it has to do with food the smile just gets bigger. Now add to that the Surmai Rava Fry and Rava Prawns Fry served here...it is pure bliss...those wonderful people are literally ‘dishing’ out these fantastic delicacies, good on flavour, perfect aroma, freshest possible fish... the tangy kokum flavoured drink is pure refresher... a must visit place not only for people within the Karve Nagar area, but this can surely be worth a trip for people stating not so close...
If home style Goan food is what you're looking for, this is the place to be! With a limited menu and adequate servings, the restaurant ensures that you have quality food.
I tried the surmai thali and prawns thali, both of which came with a curry, tival, papad, bhakri/ chapati and rice. The prawns thali had a decent number of prawn rawa fry and the surmai one was served with two medium sized rawa fry pieces. With a small seating capacity, waiting can be expected on a busy day.
It is priced well and definitely value for money. Karve nagar has gotten a gem of a restaurant!
Excellent for Sea food lovers.. I had customised Surmai Thali.. With Surmai Fry (thanks to the owner for giving me big fry piece) and prawns Goan curry..
Solkadhi was not that great..

A Goan family owning the restaurant, which can be seen cooking as well as serving,pleasant music to chill,really good food quality and taste sums up Vernekar's Goan Fish Curry restaurant as a whole.
The restaurant has recently started and is gathering much appreciation and praise from sea food lovers.
I have recently visited the restaurant twice and here's what I have tried out:
Surmai Rawa fry
Prawns Rawa fry
Pomfret Rawa fry
Surmai Curry
Prawns Curry
Surmai Thali
Surmai Rawa fry, Prawns(Kolumbi) Curry and Prwans(Kolumbi) Rawa fry were my favourites.
The curry (Prawns or Surmai) is an absolute delicacy and shouldn't be missed at any cost.
The people who run the show are really warmand welcoming and the service is excellent.
Further on all this is provided at an affordable cost as compared to other restaurants providing sea food.
Also living up to it's name the Goan touch and authenticity is preserved in all the food items.
Food rating:4/5
Service:4/5
Ambience:3.5/5

Amazing and authentic Goan food served here! I highly recommend Fish Thali. Cooked with love and best place for fish lovers!!! A perfect combination of tasty and budget friendly restaurant :)
If you want to go for a fine dine experience, then this is not the place.
But if you want to have delicious, honest food, cooked with heart then this is the place to be.
Highlight surmai fry. Chicken Xacuti and rice. FISH FINGERS
And end your dinner with BIBINCA and ice cream
ONE OF THE BEST RESTRAUNT FOR GOAN FOOD.
For all those who want to have authethic goan fish curry rice... Must Visit this place..
It's a small cozy little place with friendly staff.
They serve fresh fish and quantity and quality of the food is quite good.
Amazing food!!! The quantity and quality are both worth the price. I tried the Surmai curry and the Prawns curry and rice. It was phenomenal!!!
The actual authentic taste of kingfish Goan curry which we always have in goa all the time through the stay the one and only one place after goa in pune you will enjoy the Goan curry taste . Should not commercialise , this place will be our favourite all time for seafood hence . Thanks Ajinkya for giving us the same freshness and taste.
Sagar kante
food is worth it! I tried Goan fish curry rice and the curry was delicious and the quantity is also a lot! People are very nice and polite! Highly recommended if your want to try authentic Goan fish!
Eyeing this place since quite some time, I finally had a chance to order (but tried only the starters this time).
I tried prawns rava fry and Goan fish fingers from this place. Prawns rava fry was very delicious, and in adequate quanity (8-10 pieces). Same with the Goan fish fingers: delicious preparations and adequate quantity. They provided amazing coconut chutney with it.
The fish is fresh and the food has a lovely homely touch to it, which makes it more tempting. The rates are reasonable, I can't wait to try the fish thali.
Food is delicious. Highly recommended.
I tried prawns curry rice, surmai fry and prawns fry.
Especially the curry is with perfect consistency.
Small place with friendly people to serve.
Made my day...just perfect.
Definitely a 5/5 experience as I still drool over the amazingly fresh fish that I had last night!
I have been ordering from this place from literally when they had a kitchen operating out of their house.
The owners are Goan themselves, so no doubt in the authenticity of their passion. Time and again they have proven to be extraordinary in the cuisine that they serve.
What I tried -
- Surmai Fry
- Prawns Fry
- Prawns Curry and Rice
A perfect blend of Goan spices added to the fresh fish they pick up everyday.
Trust me, a lot of thought and hard work has been put up in making this a successful brand today!
Situated in the heart of Karve Nagar , a one of it’s kind delivery kitchen serving mind boggling sea food.
Try it now , or regret later!

On 29th dec'23, I had lunch with my family at this place.
Decided this place after a lot of options just to have the taste of Goan food. I must say I am not disappointed and rather it was a surprise to me that in pune, many people don't know about this place.
###Food - 4.5/5, Welcomed by kokum sharvat. Ordered surmai and pomfret thali along with bombill and prawns rava fry.
With curry, you can choose the fish you want. Each item was delicious along with the side dishes.
I noticed that the tanginess and red color was less in the curry nevertheless it was tasteful. Try surmai thali a must.
Overall highly recommend and a must visit place.
###Ambiance - 4/5, Nothing fancy, you go there to enjoy your food. The owner has kept it simple and manageable.
Family outing place where you can enjoy your food.
###Service - 3.5/5, Although service was prompt and quick.
But the let down was when you ordered Bhakri and served chapati, when questioned service captain said bhakri was finished.
It should be informed in advance before taking the order or an apology before the food is serverd.
These points score when you want to convert a first time customer to a regular ones and mouth publicity.
###Value of money - 4.5/5, certainly recommended for pocket friendly and delicious food.
##Improvements: Service guys should let the customer know in advance if any item is not available.
##Parking: Available : yes.
Amazing place to grab dinner , it’s not fancy ! Has plastic chair and tables but the food is fantastic . We had fish thali , batter fried prawns & fish curry was simply amazing ! Also their prawn biryani is smthing to definitely have . One of my favourite thing was the Portuguese dessert , serradura which was mind blowing ! It was so good that we even took 4 parcels to enjoy at home .
Vernekar's located in the heart of Karve Nagar, is one of the best authentic Goan Food style you can find in Pune!!
Spacious seating, on toes service, briefing the menu is apt & ambience is awesome!
Entering this Hotel, you will feel typical Goan Vibes throughout from Artefacts & Menu Cards etc!
Welcome Drink was refreshing, Fish & prawns were served steamy hot, wholesome quantity & worth the price for sure! Prawns curry had a nice blend & freshly cooked up!
You should certainly visit '"Vernekar's" & have a fab experience with friends & fam!
Thanks! 🌟
Pomfret fry was delicious. जवळा and chutney they served complimentary were delicious too. Prawns could have been better.
The food portion in thali is just right. Not too extra, not less. Fried fish, ghavan, coconut chutney are too yummy. Solkadhi has quite different taste than usual tangy & sweet, but it was good. Bebinca dessert is a must try.
Staff is really helpful and quick. Must visit place with family, friends.
Vernekars' Goan Fish Curry has some of the most delicious and authentic Goan seafood I have ever tasted. The fresh seafood was mixed with the perfect blend of spices. The extensive menu offered a wide variety of options, having everything from prawns to pomfret, making it a haven for seafood lovers.
While the food was outstanding, I was somewhat disappointed by the service. The staff seemed a bit rude and inattentive, rushing guests through their meals. This hurried approach took away from the overall dining experience and made it feel less welcoming.
The restaurant's beachy ambiance was charming and added a pleasant touch to the dining experience. However, I noticed a fair number of bugs buzzing around, which distracted from the otherwise relaxed atmosphere.
Despite these minor setbacks, the fantastic flavors and diverse menu options make it worth a visit for those seeking an authentic taste of Goa.
What a delicious surprise 😋 Just saw this restaurant randomly and went inside. And the result was awesome. This is one of the best sea food I've tasted outside Goa. I'll describe briefly about food that we ordered
1) Prawns thali : I had prawn fry and prawn curry. Ample quantity. Prawn curry was out of the world. Absolutely amazing
2) Surmai thali : Surmai size was bit small but was very tasty. Curry was super
3)chicken thali : Not upto the mark. Didn't like it much.
Whenever I'll visit Pune will definitely come back.
Definitely definitely will recommend. Although a non vegetarians paradise but if you are eggetarian you can try their egg thali. Vegetarian thali is also available,we didn't order it though.
Egg Thali nd Fish Thali were too good. Thali Portion is also good enough for 1 people.
Do try both the desserts in the menu. They r out of the world.
Great tasty Goan food available here. Nice ambiance. Rava fry fish is of authentic Goan taste.
Edit:
They have moved to a new location. It's good too. Recommended.
Nice ambience
The thali is really good
He ordered the fish fry separately as well as it was too good to have just once
Value for money place
Ample Parking is available across the road

Sea food is very delicious. Variety of seafood dishes are available. Here you get the unique goan dessert. Ambience and service is great. Considering the overall nice food, variety of items and great service, the cost of food is reasonable. Highly recommended place for seafood lovers.
We visited this place for lunch and had to wait around 5 minutes to get a table.
The ambiance was good and a had nice feel with the pleasant music. While ordering, what we liked the most is their option to customise the thali. You can create a combination of fry and curry as you like. This is something that we liked a lot.
The waiters were helpful and gave suggestions for the order. The food was fantastic. The quantity was decent and the taste was superb. The flavours were authentic Goan unlike the spicy masalas used elsewhere. I would definitely recommend a visit to this place.
Food is delicious ..! Nice restaurant good ambiance. The owner nd staff is very nice nd friendly. Fish is special here. Nd spices is very authentic from Goan . Fish varieties is nice . Nd main the desert is delicious 😋 the seradura 😋🙏
If you want to enjoy sea food with authentic Goan taste, then this is "THE" place. Lovely food. Try surmai as well as pomfret thali with prawns gravy to get a wholesome meal. The restaurant typically has a long waiting time. So reach early.
Amazing fish thali. Fresh fish and very tasty. The service is top class too! The owners take great pride in making sure guests have a lovely experience. Cannot wait to visit again!
Awesome Food. Tantalizing Fish Fry options.
