What guests say

Testimonials

The chicken ghee roast is the real deal — proper Byadgi heat and ghee, not a drop of colour. Easily the best in Manipal.

Rohan K. · Local guide · Dined in

Picked our own kingfish from the display and it came back as the crispiest tawa fry. Fresh, fast and the staff were lovely with our kids.

Priya S. · Family dinner

Came for a match night and stayed for the mandi. Big portions, fair prices and the open kitchen is fun to watch.

Aditya M. · Student, MIT Manipal

Neer dosa with the fish curry took me straight back home. Clean kitchen, honest coastal cooking.

Sandhya R. · Visiting from Mangaluru

The prawns sukka here is outstanding — perfectly spiced, generous portions, and the seafood is always fresh. A must-visit for coastal food lovers.

Arjun N. · Food blogger · Visited twice

Great place for a family dinner. The staff helped us pick dishes for the kids and the seafood platter was enough for all four of us. Warm service.

Meera & Family · Weekend dinner

Authentic flavours, reasonable prices, and the ambience is just right. We keep coming back for the crab and the ghee roast combo.

Karthik P. · Regular visitor

Best Arabic mandi in Udupi district. The rice is fragrant, the meat is tender, and the portions are huge. Worth every rupee.
