I had an incredible dining experience at The Turtle Calangute GOA ! From the moment I walked in, the ambiance was inviting, with a subtle coastal vibe that perfectly set the mood for a seafood feast. The menu offered a fantastic variety of fresh seafood options, and every dish I tried was expertly prepared and beautifully presented. The grilled lobster was succulent and flavorful, while the seafood chowder was rich, creamy, and packed with fresh ingredients. Service was top-notch — the staff was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu, making excellent recommendations. Whether you're a seafood lover or just looking for a memorable dining experience, THE TURTLE BAR & RESTAURANT is a must-visit. I’ll definitely be back for more! ~ Ranju P
🌴 The Turtle Restaurant, Calangute — A Hidden Gem You Shouldn’t Miss! 🐢 During my recent trip to Goa, I stumbled upon The Turtle Restaurant in Calangute, and it turned out to be one of the best dining experiences of my journey. The vibe here is super chill — cozy interiors, beachy feel, and just the right mix of music and mood. The food was absolutely delicious, bursting with authentic Goan flavors and perfectly cooked. But what truly made the evening special was the incredible service. A huge shout-out to Basu bhai, whose warm smile and attentive nature made us feel right at home. He went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. If you’re ever in Calangute and looking for a place that serves great food with genuine hospitality, make sure to stop by The Turtle Restaurant. Trust me, it’s worth it! ✨ ~ Prathamesh M
Visited this newly opened restaurant a few days back for lunch. Run by local Goan family, Serving Home style Goan Food, fresh seafood and other cuisines. They also serve Chinese, Indian & continental food. The thali is wholesome and the curry is flavourful made by the owner herself. Serving quality food at budget friendly rates. Must try: Goan fish thali, dragon chicken, butter garlic crab, BBQ chicken sizzler, Goan fish fry. In veg: paneer butter masala with kulcha/ naan. Serradura is made in house by the owner’s daughter. Note: spacious restaurant, friendly staff & owners, parking limited space. Do drop by if you’re in and around Calangute. ~ Shweta I
Our friends, Shailesh, Amrita and Aarav during our stay with them in CALANGUTE introduced us to this restaurant and we were not disappointed. We were met by the owner and were shown to our table. The service was good and the selection of the menu was adequate. Our meal from starter to dessert were well presented and all very appetising. Unfortunately we could only visit twice during our stay, but we will be back in 2026. Againg thank you for being so kind, and we offer our good wishes for continuing success in all you do. Regards Freda and Brian. ~ Brian D
A fantastic new spot in Goa! The Turtle Bar and Restaurant serves an authentic Goan Fish Thali that’s bursting with flavor, along with a great selection of Goan, Indian non-veg, and vegetarian dishes. The bar offers a solid variety of beers, liquor, and cocktails to complement your meal. Despite being open for just a month, the place is well-run, and a standout detail was the spotless toilets and wash basin area—a rarity in many places! The staff is friendly, the atmosphere is inviting, and the food is truly worth trying. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a great meal in Goa! ~ Austin R
