Papa Joe`s Restaurant - Goan restaurant in Orlim, Navelim Village - South Goa, India

The place is homely with friendly and proactive owners who run the restaurant. It's a beautiful set up to chill with friends and family and let your hair down. We ordered the suramai fish thali which is enough for one person unless you're a small eater then you can share it . The rawa fry and butter garlic prawns didn't really appeal to us so much. However the sausage pulao and the crum fired beef is a definitely must try, it's delicious.

The food is amazing and delicious with a lot of plant surrounding us the atmosphere was brilliant and there were a lot of fish and they also sawed us tortoise and i would suggest you to eat the Goan Thali and pineapple and Dragon fruit shake.

Hmm not great, the garlic prawns are nice but the prawn curry is like soup with a few small prawns in the bottom. Not good and I have eaten in 50 restaurants in Goa. Expensive - much better quality is at Hungry Shark in Cavelossim where I had the same meal for less money and the food was much much better.

Limited options for veg folks but then I guess it's given when you are in Goa or anywhere near the sea, for that matter. The consumer experience was well crafted - slow mellow classic music with locals also frequenting the place - that's a sure sign that the place is good. Couldn't have local food but fugaad was nice! Apart from that, we had fried rice, gobi Manchurian that were lovely as well. Paneer stire fry was strictly average. Overall, will recommend this place esp. if you are looking for a calm evening with Goan food, on the cards.

Located amongst beautiful surroundings..we loved the serenity of the place. The owner Nella was very welcoming and courteous. We had a good general conversation and she guided us with our order. They serve authentic goan food, continental and chinese. Highly recommend the crumb chicken served with chips, the squid batter fry, chilly fries. While the chicken Hakka noodles was quite tasty, the Chicken fried rice was made with boiled/fat rice which didn't go down well with everyone (but I liked it). The choice of dessert is limited. They serve homemade icecream (vanilla and coffee) and though it was tasty, it was icy. The portions are quite sufficient and the service is quick.

OMG.... best home cooked Goan food prepared by the most amazing chefs. The ambience is so quaint and peaceful, yet vibrant. The music is great and service is very polite and attentive. Been there a few times and will go many many more times. Nella is an amazing host.

This is a mom and pop owned type of food joint with some good Goan dishes on the menu's the ambiance is a dull but might have been just mu opinion. Not too expensive.

Please do visit this amazing place. It's feels like home. The food here is finger licking good. This is one place I personally love going to eat everytime I go there is something different to taste. From the home made wines to the desserts. My favourite ice-cream is the coffee one
