Evergreen Restaurant 1975 is a hidden gem for those who love authentic Goan cuisine. Located in a peaceful setting, this place offers a perfect mix of traditional flavors and a relaxed ambiance. The seafood thali is a standout , fresh, flavorful, and generous in portion. Their prawns and fish dishes are cooked to perfection, bringing out the true essence of Goan spices. The chicken cafreal and Goan sausage pulao are also highly recommended. What sets this place apart is the old-school charm and warm hospitality. The staff is friendly, and service is quick, making it a great spot for a laid-back meal with friends or family. If you're looking for authentic Goan food with a nostalgic touch, Evergreen Restaurant 1975 should be on your list. Definitely worth visiting! ~ Vishal K

Evergreen Restaurant has a cozy atmosphere and a diverse menu that caters to various tastes. The service was attentive, and the staff were friendly, making us feel welcome right from the start. The food was delicious, with fresh ingredients and well-balanced flavors. I particularly enjoyed the [insert specific dish you liked], which was cooked to perfection. The portion sizes were generous, providing good value for the price. One area for improvement could be the wait time during peak hours, as it took a little longer than expected to receive our food. However, the quality of the meal made it worth the wait. Overall, I had a great dining experience at Evergreen Restaurant and would recommend it to anyone looking for a nice place to eat! ~ Om i

I recently went to Goa, and my friend and I were looking for the best seafood restaurant when Google led us here. Even though there are many other popular suggestions, we wanted to try this one. Even though this is a modest restaurant, the walls and the amazing food it serves speak volumes. We got the Rava King fish, Tiger prawns, and Russian masala pomfret, all of which are must-tries, because they were advertised on the kitchen door as being "Made with Mom's Loves" (I'm not sure I can remember the exact phrase). The wall art and posters in this restaurant, which won't allow you sit still, are its best feature. Every piece of art and quotation makes you smile. When I met the owner, he mentioned the well-known Goan artist "Mario," whose few artistic creations encapsulate the state Goa. Will definitely recommend this spot for creativity and fun! You won't be let down when you come. ~ A S

It was not difficult finding this restaurant so close to the Mahalakshmi temple. The ambience was good with soft music and walls decorated with witty and nostalgic posters. I ordered the Modso fish Thaali, and boy was I surprised to find a fish thaali with such variety, there was kismoor, kheer, sol kadi, black eyed beans gravy, and a lot of other items in the Thaali. I havent yet come across such a varied fish thaali in Goa, and all items were bang on on taste. The fish was fresh and well fried. The staff too were well spoken. The owner Mr Sayyam kindly agreed to click a photo of me with the Thaali. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for good authentic goan food. ~ parag s

It's a local bar and restaurant located in the heart of Panjim city known for serving variety of fish thalis and fresh seafood since 48 years!! Their fish thali is pocket friendly and comes with so many Goan delicacies like fish fry, fish curry, tisreo, kismoor, crabs, fish pickle, solkadhi, dessert and much more!! I also loved this crab xec Xec which was traditionally prepared and the crabs were full of meat!! • Prawns fish thali Rs 220/- The ambience is rustic bar themed with attractive frames and wall hangings all around!! A delightful and pocket friendly spot in Panjim for fish thali lovers!! ~ Rakshanda S

We were planning on going for lunch to Kokni Canteen Goa. Looking at the long wait we thought its best to explore another restaurant in the vicinity & to our beautiful surprise we landed up at Evergreen Restaurant instead which is literary 1 min walk from Kokni. My wife & I are local residence in Goa now & have explored almost all famous restaurants for Fish thali. I really don't have the correct words to express how beautiful the food is at Evergreen, its a cosy restaurant with few tables but the food here is among the best we have ever had in this city. Goa needs to be talking about this tiny little restaurant lot more. One piece of advice drop your plans and come here just to eat I assure you the food memory will be with you for a long time. Looking forward to eating here soon again with some friends & family. They deserve some serious recognition. Wishing this team lots of luck for the future they have along way to go in the culinary food. ~ Harry D

One of the best places you can have fish thalis at ! Frankly, this place was accidentally discovered by us as the nearby location had closed. The vibes of this place are truly cozy with a lot of posters and art. I didn't expect the food to be so good and tasty. I went for the kingfish thali and the kingfish was freshhh ! And cooked to perfection with all the spices and marination. We also tried their dragon chicken which was just delicious and the vegies on the side was just perfect. The owner was great and friendly and offered us complementary chocolates after the lunch. ~ Shashwat A

Tiny place with only 5 tables. We ordered the fish thali and the chicken thali. Fish thali comes with a big slice of fried fish, a vegetable dish, kokam drink, prawn curry, crab curry, shell fish curry, dried fish preparation all in small bowls and a serving of rice. Chicken thali had chapati , rice, fried chicken and chicken curry . For the variety we had as well as the quality of the food, i think it was priced competitively. Today it is bye bye Goa or i would have come again to try out their alacarte menu. Keep up the good work.. Wish i had taken a pic of the thali! ~ bang103 t

Had a wonderful experience at Evergreen Bar & Restaurant. The food was fresh, flavorful, and served in generous portions. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome throughout our visit. The ambience was relaxed and perfect for catching up with friends or enjoying a family meal. A special mention for the quick service and reasonable pricing, which made the overall experience even better. Overall it's a place I'd happily visit again and recommend to anyone looking for good food, drinks, and a pleasant atmosphere. ~ Edsel L

What a fantastic place! The food was excellent, not too heavy on the masala’s and they made special non-spicy fish for our kids. Every dish we ordered was delicious, great taste and great quantity. We ordered a king fish thali which had more options than other Thalis we had tried in Goa over a week, fried king prawns which were large and plenty in number, a king fish rava fry which was specially made for our kids with no spice , a lovely mackerel rava fry with huge mackerels, finished off with ginger ale and a lovely Goan pudding/ dessert! I also have to mention the hilarious poster and tile art that covered the walls, a restaurant with a great sense of humor and lovely salsa music! This review would not be complete if we didn’t mention the owner Sayyam, who regaled us with tales of the history of his restaurant and his antique 13 kilo vintage telephone he has on his wall as well as being a source of information on everything Goan. Great evening, great fun, great food! Definitely recommend this restaurant 👍👍👍 ~ Manjunath G

This place the food was worth the wait. Yes, there was quiet a wait and lunch time (I think) is a busy time.. The food was amazing. Every bite was too good. Since we were many of us we didn't get places together but we ate our hearts out. Garlic fried prawns, Kingfish fry, Chonak thaali and some other delicacies were tried. Yum yum yum.🤤🤤🤤 The place is fun with the posters and music. All in all a great experience. Thank you for keeping it going for many many years, your true hard work shows in the food. ❤️ ~ Sonna D

Visited this restaurant randomly while around the streets of Panjim. The restaurant has limited seats. I tried special fish thali which consists of rice, prawns curry, surmai fry, one subji, shivli kalvan, egg kalvan, crab kalvan, one gulab jam, loncha, little salad and kokam curry. I loved the taste of the food as the whole thali had unique varieties. The only thing was that the quantity was little less, but I am happy for the tasty food they served. Also, shared veg thali photos for veg people. Hope to visit this restaurant again. ~ Digvijay K

Will definitely visit again! ~ MAHESH M

Absolutely loved this place! The Goan flavors were authentic and perfectly balanced — every dish was bursting with taste. The seafood was fresh, the curries rich and aromatic, and the presentation beautiful. The staff was warm and attentive, making the experience even better. The ambiance had a cozy coastal vibe that made me feel like I was right in Goa. Highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who loves Goan cuisine — I’ll definitely be coming back! 🌴🍛🐟 ~ payal k

We ordered following dishes: Modso Rawa Fry (Lemon Fish Rawa Fry) Prawns Rawa Fry Prawns Raw Mango Curry Rice Kokam Soda & Last but not the least Tiwal It was my first visit to Evergreen restaurant & surpringly Sayyam (Owner n Chef) played like Messi. Very Mesmerizing, Tasty dishes I would say !! It's my appeal to everyone to visit restaurants like which are being cured by Sayyam. It's the need of time as contemporary artists like Sayyam should be well appreciated. ~ Yogita D

We had a lovely meal at Evergreen with Sayyam- whose Dad started the restaurant in 1975 - personally attending to us. The food has the home cooked instead of the mass produced flavour. Lovely variety of dishes in the thalis. The prawn curry was delicious as were the fried prawns and fish. Sayyam took special care along with his staff to ensure we had everything we needed. The ambience takes you back to a long lost era. We will certainly be going back. ~ Leo F

Authentic Goan Delight! Had lunch at Evergreen Restaurant 1975, and their Fish Thali was simply outstanding! The flavors were spot on—perfectly fried fish, rich curry, and refreshing sol kadi, all coming together for an authentic Goan experience. A big shoutout to Mr. Sanyam, the owner, for his warm hospitality and passion for great food. The service was impeccable, and the ambiance added to the charm. If you're in Panjim, this place is a must-visit! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ~ Chakri P

Being a true Goan and fish lover We were craving for the authentic Fish curry after long hours of travelling from trip, first thought came to my mind was Evergreen which would serve fish thali at night as well (this is rare in panjim) , Fish thali with prawns curry and Tora(raw mango) , nice big fry chonak fillet with crab sukha, kismoor, bhaji, This was truly home made food experience, also not to forget nice ambience to add to this, Must try !!! ~ Shraddha L

Outstanding is an understatement... Lovely Food and a great host in Sayyam Mansekar... Does not carry a fancy ambience or popularity akin to Konani Canteen or Bombil, but their food is unparalleled and few notches higher. 51 years in the business is no mean feat and deserves every applause due... More Power to Sayyam and the Mansekar Family... Cheers Only Improvement Feedback: They need AC, as it can get a bit hot, especially during summers ~ Raj B

I had a very pleasant experience at this hotel The owner Sayyam is extremely humble and attentive, making sure every guest feels comfortable and well taken care of The service provided by the staff is excellent prompt and very professional The overall atmosphere of the hotel is welcoming and well-managed I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a comfortable and enjoyable stay ~ Sahil M

We actually were on our way to Kokni Kanteen to have fish thali, which was closed on arrival. While we sadly walked our way back to Fontainhas, we found this signboard outside that said since 1975. We decided to eat and I promise you we did not regret it. Hands down the best fish thali I've had. The best. The vibe so pure and Goan. Now that's an experience I never planned for. Absolutely worth it. ~ Adreanna E
