Viva Panjim

Everything about this place is five star. Very old restaurant run by the family is situated in a heritage building and has furniture to match the status. Food at Viva is simply superb and you can try anything from their vast menu. For us it was more of seafood since it is Goa and we did just that. Service is prompt and old Goa vibe gives you enough reason to savour your food. Serradura, a local sweet dish is a must try. Try their crabs too.

Visited Viva Panjim with high expectations, but unfortunately, it was quite underwhelming. The food was just okay – nothing that really stood out or felt worth the price. What made the experience worse was the staff’s attitude, which came off as a bit rude and disinterested. The place is definitely overpriced considering the quality of food and service. The only saving grace was the ambience, which is charming and gives off a nice old-Portuguese vibe – hence the two stars. Sadly, the overall experience didn’t live up to the hype.

Viva Panjim is a lovely spot tucked inside the colorful streets of Fontainhas. The vibe is homely and peaceful, and the staff is super friendly. The food is full of authentic Goan flavours – don’t miss the seafood! If you're in Panjim and craving something local, this place is a must-try.

Good value for a fancy meal. Price is on the higher end. Personally I found the spices to be a bit much so if you’re a bland eater, maybe tell the restaurant to be light on the spice!! 😁😁

This resturant is a must Visit in Fontaines for mouthwatering seafood and other cuisines with ashethic ambience. Their service is very quick no matter how much is the crowd.food taste was 10/10. This is located in a 100 years old Portuguese House.

A hidden gem in the beautiful old quarters of Panjim! The location is peaceful and full of character. The food was absolutely authentic — rich Goan flavors just like home-cooked meals. Loved the experience and would definitely come back!

Viva Panjim was a discovery! A beautiful Portuguese style home converted into a restaurant. Great Goan food at surprisingly affordable prices.

Goan pride done well despite a proliferation of chinese items on the menu. This little hole in the wall resturant while in a heritage home down a narrow alleyway in the beautiful neighbourhood of Fontainhas serves local food the way it was intended. If you go at an off peak time (like I did ) you get to chat with the staff , sample their homemade feni and urak and have a wonderful (if low on salt) meal . Check it out on your next trip to Goa
