Bhojan - Serula

We went to the restaurant on March 11th for lunch. We ordered Thiali for QR 35 each. The servers were happy to refill our drinks, but we had to wait 20 minutes for our poori to be served. When we asked the manager, he arrogantly told us they serve fresh food and seemed unconcerned about our wait. The restaurant was overcrowded with uncomfortable seating. As we left, the manager followed us to apologize, but I expressed my disappointment with the service. He was defensive and indifferent to our concerns, stating that he didn't care about public ratings. I felt it necessary to warn others about the subpar service and lack of customer support at this establishment.

We tried a new restaurant for the first time and opted for the fish thali for lunch. My husband, who is a big fish lover, declared it to be the best fish thali he has had in Goa so far! The prawn curry, mussels, vegetables, and fried fish were all fresh and delicious, prepared in the traditional Konkani Goan style. I found the dishes to be a bit too spicy for my liking, but my husband thoroughly enjoyed the meal. The highlight for me was the Mini Gulab Jamun that came with the thali. Unlike other local thalis, this one included a sweet dish, which was a pleasant surprise.

I went to this restaurant with my family and had a generally good experience. The chicken biryani was recommended and was delicious, but the chicken lollipops were disappointing as they were mostly dough with very little meat.

I always enjoyed the spicy food here. It's busy and loud. Try to avoid sitting before or directly in line with the air cone units. Some of the waiters can be torn by their feet. They all help as well as possible.

We went for lunch at 1430 hrs on a holiday. the place was full. Parking is limited and that too outside. We were told to wait to be seated and were told that the delay will be around 20 minutes. However by the time we...could be seated it was already 35 minutes and 1500 hrs. Since I was with relatives who were visiting Goa for the first time, I wanted to order the famous Goan Fish Thali. Initially the waiter explained that they have run out of thali meals, but when we told him that we were waiting for 35 minutes for the meal and it was already 1510, he said he will talk to the manager and see what can be done. Finally after 15 minutes we were served the Thali. We were six persons and some of the accompaniments were different in different thalis, I believed they had run out of the items and replaced them with some other items. We did not mind. The food was delicious and made up more than for our wait. The fried fish was king fish and it was very fresh and nicely done, it was amazing. The clam with coconut was also exemplary and the prawn curry was also very good. In fact the entire accompaniment was very tasty. It is one of the best, or rather the best thali I have had in Goa. The seating is good and comfortable and the waiters were very helpful and efficient. The service and the food is is definitely the USP of this wonderful stand alone restaurant. It is located slightly off the CHOGM road but there are ample road sign for directions. Though they had most of the regular dishes, we just tried th thali. But going by the tasty thali we can expect that the other dishes would also be very good. I would highly recommend this place to anybody visiting Goa and looking for the perfect Goan Thali.
