Rafeal's Bar and Restaurant - Colva

I'm not sure if it was just an off day for the chef, but the beef chilly fry was filled with poorly cut and tough chunks. The fish curry also was not good, as the fish was not fresh. The sausage pulao was the only dish that was okay. Overall, it was a disappointing experience.

During our recent trip to South Goa, we dined at this restaurant seven times in five days. I want to clarify that I am reviewing the restaurant located next to the Seacon Hotel, not the one on the next beach with the same name. My favorite part of this restaurant is the authentic Goan food they serve. Despite its small size, they offer a wide variety of fresh fish dishes at affordable prices. The owner personally takes your order and recommends the best fish to try. The drinks are also reasonably priced. In a place where air-conditioned restaurants are rare, this one has recently added an AC section which was a welcome relief from the heat. I will definitely be returning to dine here again soon.

This cozy family-owned bar and restaurant is located across from the coach park. You can always expect a warm welcome here, and they offer a large menu with freshly cooked food. Enjoy a pleasant dining experience at this little gem during your holidays.

Revisited Rafael's during Diwali this year n was not disappointed.Still consistent with serving authentic goan food. Chicken, pork, beef dishes excellent.Fish curry not so good though.Value for money.

We are regular in this restaurant and love this family run place. We came to Colva and saw the place closed for renovation but luckily they opened after 2days and we ate here for rest of the days we were there. The fish is very fresh and they prepare it very nicely. And the food and drinks are really CHEAP.
