Carnival De Goa

This is one of our favourite seafood restaurants in Bangalore. The variety and quality of seafood is excellent, and the dishes are well-prepared. Almost everything we have tried here are tasty. Of late, I've found that their prawn rachaedo is a lil too sweet for my liking. This used to be my favourite dish there. Love their ambience and choice of music!

It's the first Goan food restaurant we have visited in namma Bengaluru and I must say we have been delighted with that choice. The food delicacies along with ambiance and surroundings would enhance your dining experience. The decision to take the balcony table unintentionally proved bang for our bucks as we have witnessed the Ganapati visarjan on halasuru road in thundering rain. ( A Mumbaikar would pay over the odds to experience this atmosphere outside of Mumbai)!! Coming back to the food experience, we have indulged in only Goan cuisines such as poi with Ross omelette, prawns rava fry, fish curry with rice finished with some cocktails and coconut pudding.

Carnival de Goa in the center of Bangalore offers an inviting ambiance and vibrant colors. The Goan egg chilli was a flavorful blend of spices and chilies. The Goan prawns Rissois featured perfectly cooked prawns in a crispy pastry shell. The Goan egg ros omelette was a standout dish with its fluffy omelette and rich tomato-based curry. The Kingfisher premium beer and Cosmopolitan cocktail were refreshing choices. The staff provided excellent service, making the dining experience enjoyable except a slight delay in serving the second cocktail. I highly recommend Carnival de Goa for an authentic taste of Goa in Bangalore.

Great place, great vibe. Parking facility is decent and ambiance is perfect for a Bengaluru evening. Even being on the main road, it’s quite isolated and noise free. First we waited to order via the QR given, but later we got to know that the QR was to check the menu and the ordering was supposed to be done directly via the staff. Santhosh (the staff) who assisted us with the menu, was patient and pleasant. Overall we had a great experience, it’s a bit expensive, but worth the try. This place also has the live music. Guys, if you haven’t visited then this is a sure shot add on to your bucket list if your are sea food lover. 😀

We had seen this restaurant quite some time back but decided to visit when we wanted a restaurant to have dinner after visiting Ulsoor Lake. We had a very mixed experience here. We had difficulty with getting the waiter to help us understand the specifics of each dish and navigating the online menu to figure out the price of some of the dishes. We started with Mixed Seafood soup and had Prawn Butter Garlic as a starter. They were both excellent. For drinks, we ordered a Lime Soda and a Virgin Mojito which tasted great. For main course, we had Mangalore Fish Curry (Pomfret) and 2 items we had not tried before, Sannas and Goan Poie. The Sannas was very tasty with the fish curry but the Goan Poie was a bread based dish and didn't go too well with the fish curry. Maybe a chicken dish would have been better. There was no provision to make the payment with a credit card which was a bit frustrating because the food wasn't cheap. I would expect a restaurant to have a backup credit card machine. We finally made the payment via UPI. Overall, the food was excellent but the service and payment experience were very average.
