Martin's Corner

Had a great dinner at Martin’s Corner. The ambience was lovely, and the live music made the evening even more enjoyable. Service was attentive and friendly. The creamy chicken soup was good (a little sweet for my taste), but the batter-fried calamari was amazing. The chicken tikka was delicious, and dessert was good too. We also tried the urak, which was very refreshing and a great addition to the meal. Overall, a wonderful spot for dinner in South Goa!

Such a serene place with great vibes and soothing music. Ordered Chicken Xacuti with Poi, Prawns Curry with Steam Rice, and Coconut Soufflé. Loved the prawns curry with rice – full of authentic Goan flavors! Chicken Xacuti was okay for me and coconut souffle was delicious. Overall, a good experience and worth visiting. 🌴✨

Had a wonderful experience at Martin’s corner . It’s one of the most famous restaurants in South Goa, especially known for its seafood and authentic Goan cuisine. They offer a wide variety of dishes, with both vegetarian and non-vegetarian options available. The live fish counter is a great touch and adds to the overall experience. The service was excellent—staff were attentive and welcoming. The desserts were delicious and the perfect way to end the meal. I honestly wasn’t expecting the vegetarian dishes to be so good since the place is so well known for its non-veg, but they were absolutely impressive. Also plenty of parking place available.

This is a very famous restaurant in South Goa. It has excellent free parking facilities. The interior is very nice. The live orchestra performers are very good. The atmosphere inside is very pleasant. A wide range of alcoholic beverages is available. The cocktails and mocktails were all very good. Regarding the food, we liked all the seafood dishes, but the chicken dishes were just average; they could be made more delicious, and efforts should be made in that direction.

Every time i am in Goa i remind myself to come here, its just fits as a place u would expect to go in goa. The seafood is amazing, do try the squid also the chicken is pretty good. the vibe is awesome with live music and the whole atmosphere is so celebratory. date, family dinner, solo date, do go here. its just so good .

This place had been on my bucket list ever since I read about it in the book ‘Secret Sauce’ which covers iconic restaurants from across India. So now when we were in Goa, I didn’t want to miss it. We visited the place around lunch time and went in a bit early to avoid the rush. We got a nice table in the middle of the restaurant and the staff were very friendly and helpful in helping us place the right order. We ordered the Goan Sausage Chilli Fry, Chonok Masala Rava Fry, Tandoori Prawns and Surmai Masala Fry. The Sausage Chilli Fry was quite nice with its inherent Smokey flavour going well with the chilli and onions. The Masala Rava Fry and Masala Fry preparations were a bit on the sweeter side owing to the use of Recheado masala. The taste was even more stronger in the Surmai Masala Fry whereas in the Rava Fry it was toned down a bit. This turned out to be a little disappointing. What stood out was the Tandoori Kong Prawns, well cooked and spicy!! A good recommendation from our server. All of this paired well with some Beer and we ended our meal with a Bebinca with Ice Cream. A good way to wrap it all up! Overall, it was a nice dining experience and it’s a place to visit at least once when you’re in Goa.

Bebinca Ice Cream – ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Classic Goan dessert with a nice twist. Sensation Passion drink – ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Super refreshing and awesome, especially in the Goa heat. Service was efficient despite the crowd, ambience is relaxed and old-school Goan, and portions are generous. Overall Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (4.8/5) Some dishes truly shine, others are good and dependable. Still a must-visit when you’re in South Goa—especially for Chonak Fry, Serradura, and the drinks.

Not a very fancy place but bustling with tourist, atmosphere is pepped up with live music. If you reach after 8pm, most likely you would be waiting in queue. Food was delicious, with packed clients order may get delayed but generally it is delivered in reasonable time. Prices are at par or less with any similar restaurant in Goa. Stewards are well dressed, groomed. They are busy running around but service is satisfactory. Washrooms are spacious and hygienic. Good thing is they have their own free parking with dedicated staff managing it .
