" I had dinner at Viva Goa last night, and I left satisfied! Their prawn ghee roast was incredible, and the beef samosas were a delightful crunch. I love that the restaurant showcases such authentic dishes from Goa. My server was very accommodating, and I felt well taken care of throughout the meal. While the place could use some aesthetic upgrades, the food certainly made up for it. I highly recommend giving it a visit if you're craving something real! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was excited to try Viva Goa after hearing so much about it. The decor is simple but captures a homey vibe. I went with my family and we ordered a variety of dishes. While the food was tasty and captured the essence of Goan dishes, I felt like some items were slightly overpriced, particularly the rice which was an extra charge. Overall, I enjoyed the meal and appreciated the authenticity, but I hope they can adjust the pricing a little. I’d recommend it to anyone looking to savor Goan flavors! " (*Curated Review*)

" Viva Goa is truly a unique find! The food was exceptional, with a menu that had so many delicious Goan options. The fish thali was bright and flavorful.

I’d definitely return, especially to try their desserts! " (*Curated Review*)
