I'm a proud Mangalorean, and we all know our fishes well Perfect ambience, great menu, and good service. The hotel is situated right at the heart of the city. I must admit that I did go here regularly for a week, I really liked what they had to offer with fish, if you go here must try the fish dishes with appam, tastes very authentic! Keralites will love it Finally, I do strongly recommend this place, but I still wish they could do more with fish, bring in more varieties.

Tharavadu comes like a breath of fresh air in a city erstwhile in a rut of authentic Indian restaurants. The food is absolutely brilliant and the service super prompt. We were a group of 5 people and we ordered paper masala dosa, chicken dosa, veg and non veg thali, vada sambar and gol gappa chat. All the things were stunner. Special mention to the soup served with the veg thali. I find myself at a loss of words while describing that soup. Such vivid and immaculate flavours, a truly not to be missed delicacy. If not better, then most certainly at par with Sarvana Bhawan. Most generously recommended.
