Revisit Review- Monica’s Bar & Restaurant Candolim Goa.

Manning the kitchen at Monica’s Bar & Restaurant, almost singlehandedly every night, is the lovely owner Menetta. As you sit on her simple, yet quaint roof terrace restaurant, your taste buds can’t help salivate, smelling the aroma of delicious food. How can I explain it? Well… to me it is like walking into my mother’s or mother-in-law’s house for Sunday dinner. That first whiff of a roast. The alluring smell of roast potatoes and Yorkshire’s. But most of all, that heart-warming feeling, knowing it has been prepared and cooked with love.  

I will let you into a secret. When you eat at Monica’s that is precisely what you get. Delicious, home cooked food, made with love. Yes it may take a little while longer to be served, nevertheless it is well worth those five extra minutes, when everything is homemade.  From her fish batter, mushy peas, chips to steaks, curries and fish dishes. There has been nothing that I have eaten at Monica’s that has not been far short of exceptional.

What I also love about this place, is that the menu is not extensive. Menetta has been smart, offering enough choice for every pallet, but enough to be able to cook all the items to her renowned, high standard.

 

 

 

I will not lie, this is a not a whistle and bells restaurant. No witty waiters, or live entertainment. But what I will say is… Monica’s Bar and Restaurant is a must if you are looking for first-class European food and the real deal, Goan cuisine.
