Had lot of fun with friends, done tracking on mountain leads to multiple beaches, had good experience near beaches, played volleyball and other games and at the end relaxing view of beautiful Sunset. It was like mini Goa with less crowd. I went in February during Valentine.

A Peaceful Slice of Paradise – OM Beach, Gokarna 🌊✨ We recently visited Om Beach, and it was such an amazing experience! The beach truly lives up to the hype — peaceful, scenic, and shaped beautifully like the sacred “Om” symbol. The vibe here is calm yet vibrant, making it a perfect mix for both relaxation and fun. We started our day with a small trek along the cliffs that connect Om Beach to nearby beaches — the views from the top were absolutely stunning! You can spot movie-like scenery all around. Later, we just chilled by the shore, played some beach games like volleyball and frisbee, and ended the day watching a breathtaking sunset over the Arabian Sea — easily one of the best sunsets I’ve seen. 🌅 The beach is clean and less crowded, with a few small shops and shacks offering snacks, lemon soda, and local food. The whole area feels like a mini Goa but quieter, making it great for those who prefer a more peaceful atmosphere. A few quick tips: • No water sports here, so it’s more about peace than thrill. • Trekking shoes or slippers with grip help if you explore nearby spots. • Visit during early morning or evening for the best light and fewer people. Om Beach is not just another beach — it’s a place to soak in nature, unwind with friends, and reconnect with yourself. Whether you want to trek, chill, or just watch the sun melt into the sea, this place will leave you refreshed and smiling. 💙

A wonderful beach for families to enjoy some fun times here. The entrance has a bit of stairs to walk down which can be cumbersome when exiting when you have to climb those same stairs, especially with the sun shining. All in all a beautiful beach. Do visit to experience it yourself.

The most lively beach in Gokarna. The boating from there was top notch. Also the walk to the end of beach along with slight drizzle was amazing. Highly recommended.

It is probably the best beach in Gokarna. There are 5-6 total beaches there which can be accessed both through the roads or hiking the hills. Have been to this place twice and it feels really good to be there. Car parking is an issue there as the number of visitors are gradually increasing in Gokarna. Do visit Mahabaleshwar temple whenever you go there.

I went both at night and in the morning, it was a beautiful beach. Wasn't very crowded the time I went. I definitely liked it a lot.

Better then Gokarna main Beach... Visited in morning with less crowd enjoyed very well... Good for photography. Water and beer bottles were thrown everywhere... Beach is surrounded by trees...

Not crowded not very dirty so that solves most of the problem. Speciality here is that the shore side there is somewhat of backwater kind effect due to the shore formation. Due to this there is no typical waves as a normal beach, since it’s also shallow it’s the best place to bring your toddler to experience a beach without the problem of waves and water depth.

Half Moon Beach is a small and quiet spot—you won’t really notice the half-moon shape unless you’re seeing it from a top view. It’s accessible by trek or boat; we chose to trek. There are no shops around, so make sure to carry some snacks and water with you. Try to reach by 3 to 4 PM so you can also cover Paradise Beach and return the same way before it gets dark.

One star is not for the beach, but for the people who make this place a dumping zone. Literally everywhere there are plastic bottles and garbage thrown on the beach side, trek route, and where not. Our people lack minimum civic sense and until unless this mentality changes; nothing/ no one can keep such a beautiful place clean. Feel very sad about the people’s mentality.

Half Moon Beach is a beautiful and peaceful spot. The water is clear, the sand is clean, and the view is amazing. It’s a bit off the main road, but totally worth the effort to reach. The beach feels quiet and private, perfect for relaxing or swimming. A great place to enjoy nature and peace away from the crowds.

Peaceful place. Loved it. Clean and clear. We did a trek from Om beach it took 20 mins. Beautiful view and trek on the way. Must visit.

This is also a smallish beach that is serene too. There are a few shacks here. I had hiked down from the Paradise beach and further walked to the Om beach from here. The hike was enjoyable- going past a ledge with a 200-250 meter drop. I also missed the way and had to climb some rocks to reach here!

Half Moon Beach near Gokarna is a peaceful, secluded spot with golden sands and clear waters, perfect for those seeking tranquility away from the crowds. Accessible by a short trek or boat ride, it offers a serene atmosphere, ideal for swimming, sunbathing, or simply relaxing. The beach is less commercialized, adding to its charm, and small shacks provide refreshments. A great escape for nature lovers and those looking to unwind.

Awesome beach ...and it is just walkable from most of the stays.

Gokarna is one of the very few coastal areas in India where one can witness a hill station like ambience with its green valleys waving to the tune of a celestial orchestra with a resonance mimicking the waves of the nearby Arabian Sea, and gradually giving way to its eternal depths with innumerable cliffs, coves and a divine serenity. It is now a favourite with most of the foreign tourists travelling to India for some Sun, sand and sea. We will see today how much warmth and fun we can get from this very holy, beautiful and exotic place. most popular beach in Gokarna is the Kudle beach. It is also the place which has a lot of lodging facilities scattered all around. The Om beach can be reached from this place easily and so too the main beach of this town, which is usually thronged by pilgrims. Kudle beach is a much laid back place with multiple cliffs all around to get a superb view of the unending waves of the Arabian Sea.

Kudle Beach: A Must-Visit Destination Kudle Beach is a must-visit destination for anyone seeking a combination of relaxation, adventure, and cultural immersion. With its stunning sunsets, thrilling surf, diverse activities, and vibrant atmosphere, Kudle Beach promises an unforgettable experience that will stay with you long after you've left the sandy shores. Flea Markets for Treasure Hunting: Along the stretch leading to Kudle Beach, you'll find a vibrant flea market brimming with souvenirs and local handicrafts. From colorful scarves and handmade jewellery to exquisite wood carvings and traditional artefacts, the flea market offers a treasure trove of items to take home as a reminder of your Kudle Beach experience. Proximity to the Sacred Mahabaleshwar Temple For those seeking a cultural immersion, Kudle Beach provides easy access to the revered Mahabaleshwar Temple, one of the most sacred Hindu temples in India. The temple, dedicated to Lord Shiva, is just a short walk away from the beach, offering an opportunity to experience the rich traditions and spiritual essence of India. (Indian/Ethical attire is a must for entry to temple premises.)

Kudle Beach is a natural beauty, could be a little piece of paradise as the sea is amazing, the sand is nice and soft, there are many welcoming restaurants and guest houses, but unfortunately the beach itself is destroyed by humans. We visited in May, which is off-season, and we've been told by all the locals that this is the reason why the beach is so dirty...because it's off-season, and they only collect the rubbish and clean the sand when there are tourists. However, the weather was perfect for enjoying the sea and sunbathing even in May, but seeing dirt and litter all around and the fact how the locals they don't care about their environment made us feel very sad... I truly wish this will change one day soon, and people in India will start to respect the amazing places they have.

Nice n beautiful view from both top hills view n by sea shore..u need to walk about 400-500 mtr from parking lot to reach the beach

waking up to the sound of waves and a stunning sunrise is something unforgettable The peaceful vibe here feels different from crowded beaches, making it perfect for a relaxed getaway. walking along the shore, the soft golden sand and rocky cliffs create a breathtaking view. what's fascinating is the beach’s connection to mythology, it's believed that lord shiva once emerged from here, adding a spiritual touch to the natural beauty. the only downside is the limited food options near the shore, so carrying some snacks is a good idea. the blend of tranquility and adventure makes every moment feel special

✅ Pros • Cultural & sacred: It’s adjacent to the Mahabaleshwar Shiva temple and used by pilgrims—calm early in the morning  . • Easily accessible: Close to town with parking, toilets, cafes, and lifeguards—family‑friendly for swimming . ⚠️ Cons • Overcrowded & littered: Gets packed post‑temple visits, with pollution from puja offerings and locals—plastic, cow dung, etc. . • Commercialized, touristy: Detracts from the natural beach experience as it’s too busy Best for: Visiting the temple, short early-morning walks, quick dips. Less ideal for: Sunbathing, relaxing, or playing due to crowding and cleanliness.

Gokarna beach is okaish as it has lots of litter here and there, could have been maintained more better. When we visited there was a drainage which was flowing through the beach with lot of bad odour. We have boating here and much rush as it is near the temple. We also have shopping and hotels nearby. Its okay to visit once.

Gokarna Beach, nestled in the Uttara Kannada district of Karnataka, India, is a coastal paradise that seamlessly blends spirituality with the serenity of the Arabian Sea. This charming town, once a secluded haven, has gained popularity while still retaining its unique character. The main beach, also known as Gokarna Beach, is located near the town's center, offering a lively atmosphere with shacks, restaurants, and water activities. It's a great spot to soak in the sun, take a swim, or enjoy the local cuisine. For those seeking tranquility, the other beaches around Gokarna are a must-visit.

I went to Gokarna with Trekkers tribe & Bucketlister and this place is full of beaches and amazing views and very chill place to relax. I definitely recommend everyone to visit Gokarna.

Gokarna Beach offers an amazing blend of beauty and tranquility. Unlike commercial beaches, this one feels more natural and untouched. The sand is soft, the water is clear, and the overall environment is very calm. The sunsets are stunning. The beach is usually less crowded, making it ideal for long walks or just relaxing. However, some stretches could use better maintenance, and food options near the shore are limited compared to more touristy beaches. Still, it’s one of the best places for anyone seeking a peaceful getaway.

Beautiful and peaceful beach. Gokarna Beach is a lovely place to unwind - clean sand, blue water, and a calm vibe that’s perfect if you want to escape the crowds of Goa. The sunsets here are just stunning, and the beach has a mix of chill cafes and local stalls nearby. It can get a bit crowded during weekends and holidays, but it’s still much more peaceful compared to other touristy spots. Overall, a great place to relax, take a walk, or just sit and watch the waves.

A smallish beach that is clean and also less crowded. I understand this beach can be reached by boat or by hiking from nearby beaches. I had hiked it down from the Belekan beach (30 min) which was an amazing experience. From here I walked down to the Half moon beach. The beach has some shops and shacks.

Paradise Beach is a hidden gem, accessible only by trekking from Om Beach to Half Moon Beach and then onwards. The best time to embark on this adventure is during the early morning hours (6:00 am - 9:00 am) or late evening (4:30 pm - 6:00 pm). Don't forget to carry water bottles to stay hydrated. The scenic trek rewards you with breathtaking views and a few quaint cafes along the way. The lush green surroundings and serene atmosphere make it a truly unforgettable experience. A must-visit destination for nature lovers and adventure seekers!

Truly a paradise if you can endure the rough trek to the beach from the parking area (which we did). An easier option perhaps is to take a ferry ride from Om beach which is more accessible. They offer a pickup and drop facility and offer half or full day packages with some beach activities like kayaking, deep water swimming etc. thrown in at a reasonable cost.

One of the most unforgettable adventures of my life! Reaching Paradise Beach is not easy, you have to trek 2–3 km through a dense, dark jungle. We went at night with just our torches, singing and motivating ourselves along the way. But the moment we reached, it truly felt like Paradise. We camped on the beach, cooked barbecue, and spent the night under the stars. If you love adventure, this place is a must visit. Not for the faint-hearted, but absolutely worth it!

Beautiful , serene and calm beach...We trekked from om beach to Halfmoon to Paradise..such a superb experience...While on the trek trail it feels we are inside a dense forest no sign of sea around and after that beautiful trek the trail leads us to the beach...Amazing view and Experience.. Some shops are available here for refreshments. Waste management is poor is ,we an see some plastic wastes dumped by the sea in the beach

paradise beach is the most beautiful beach here. you need to trek for almost 20 mins to reach here. photogenic view. mobile networks are present. you can go to half moon beach by trekking.

I would highly recommend doing the trek to reach this place. It’s absolutely worth it, and taking a swim here after the trek is simply refreshing!

A must visit when in Gokarna Located on the middle beach You may have to walk a little from the entry to the beach around 300 metres The ambience here is really good. The choice of furniture is good in the middle there’s seating on the floor which looks very relaxed and laid back This place usually gets crowded at night so better to go early especially weekends. Ideally be here by 8 pm and have a slow and relaxed dinner Service can be an issue at times so order all items at once. Crème de blue is supposed to be a delicacy here but we couldn’t have it as they’ll crowd was more and they couldn’t serve us. The taste is a little different from the usual India taste. We had Garlic bread and white sauce pasta, prices can be on the higher side

This cafe is right on the beach, and the sound of the sea makes it such a peaceful spot. The ambiance is amazing! I tried the lasagne, ratatouille, and cheese garlic bread – all of them were delicious, and the portions were good too. The prices are a bit on the higher side, but for the view and overall experience, it's worth it. Getting there can be a bit tricky. You’ll need to park your vehicle in paid parking or anywhere you find space and then walk about 500 meters on the beach to reach the cafe. But trust me, it’s all part of the charm! Definitely a great place to visit if you want good food with a beautiful view.

Truly utterly delicious and beautiful. Being a south indian and fanatic about international cuisines, I was very eager to try the French cuisine as it was my first time. I had taken Chicken Normande which is my current French Favourite. The vibe here is fabulous, staff is very polite, polished and perfect. A must try

Amazing food, cool vibe and chill people. Visit this place if you’re looking to try authentic french cuisine.

The food, ambience and the laid back feel was just amazing. Don't miss this place if you plan a trip to Gokarana. You can reach the place by a short walk on the beach, from the main beach. Their king fish with special sauce was a killer. Absolutely tantalising. Loved their French onion soup too. And oh, the waiter was lovely. A cute dancing guy who was very very cheerful!

We came here for lunch, after walking through the beach in the midday sun, it was a welcome sight. The seating arrangements are so cute and comfortable. None of those cheap plastic chairs and tables. The views to the beach and breeze are amazing. Relaxing on the sofa beds while waiting for your food or dessert is the best feeling. The staff is quite knowledgeable and helpful, although the one who served us did not know much about dishes of the day or recommendations. Nonetheless, the service was great. We got complimentary snacks on arrival, then we ordered our drinks, then main course and dessert. All in the span of 3 hours. Why be in a rush when you have such a beautiful and relaxing atmosphere? Now for the food... It was absolutely delicious and mouthwatering. The salad leaves were fresh and crunchy with delicious dressing, the gravy was amazing and the food overall was top notch. They bake their own breads and pastries daily, so if you come in the morning - you will get fresh croissants and more. The vegetables, especially the greens for the salads are grown locally and are fresh as well as organic. It is true, the chef is French, you can taste it and see it in the menu 😆 I would definitely recommend you visit this place at least once if you are in Gokarna town, you will not regret it. Hope this helps 🙏

Overall....meh. Don't get me wrong the food was good, save for it being a bit low on salt plus there being some sand in the food. I'll be a bit generous and accept the sand cause it's on the beach, and the salt can be chalked up to personal preference, but the service could not be slower. In one instance we placed an order for pasta and an hr later they said it'll be another 15 mins. This speed of service is simply unacceptable at such a high end restaurant which wasn't even that crowded. It was up to around 60-70% occupancy with only one server, another unacceptable fact. We ordered a 7up and they took 30 mins to send it over. Small things like this are enough to lower my rating by 1-2 points at least. I even took a nap between orders. Do with this info what you will, I just spat out things I would've liked to know before deciding on coming here.

Great spot! The family running this are all so adorable and welcoming. I’ve stayed here a couple of times (two weeks in total) and had a lovely time. The rooms differ in quality, but it’s a great spot to land for a bit. And you can’t beat the price! Highly recommend✨ The rock salad is amazing!

Amazing ice coconut drink... creamy sweet, delicious. Very much enjoyed the food: thali, paneer kurma, mushroom curry, shakshuka, penne pasta, amazing fresh 'rock special salad' , raita. Big portions, very yammi. Great friendly fast service, even made a special dish for us with gluten free noodles we brought ourselves. Beautiful view for sunset. Highly recommened to try

We first went just for a coffee but ended up having 4-5 meals over 3 days. Ganesh who served us can be a role model for waiters in big hotels. Food was tasty, fresh and very reasonable. The view and serene atmosphere will make you sit there for hours... Highly recommended

Breakfast options in the nearby cafes were decent. So we took a leap of faith and ordered omelette and set breakfast here. The set breakfast was supposed to have hash browns and baked beans - we got potatoes and capsicum as veggies, and beans soaked in tomato ketchup. The omelette had bits of hair in it… couldn’t eat that..

Full Stuffed Masala Dosa : 100rp Very Good Veg Thali: 150rp Directly at the beach. Wonderful place to watch the sunset 5/5

A good cafe serving good food. Thank god I found this. I had 3 meals here in my 3 days travel to Gokarna. You name the dish and they have it and cherry on the cake is service time. Service is really cook as if they know what are you going to order.

Very friendly staff and owner is also kind and help us backpackers to settle and we had lunch here ,it was fine...I wish the chicken was halal... unfortunately no hotels provide halal chicken in gokarna. We ordered paneer butter masala and chicken Kadai..paneer was tad bit salty my friends said the chicken was bland..but it was overall good

Beautiful place with some amazing views. They have a second floor for even better views of the ocean and sunset. Really magical and beautiful. The food menu is not as extensive as one would expect, nothing stood out from other cafes except Tandoori items, they have extra tikkas and tandoori items. The staff is very courteous and helpful. The food is served relatively fast, fresh and tasty. The music and ambiance is great for an evening out. Definitely worth a visit if you are in the area and area looking for a decent place to eat. Hope this helps 🙏

Very nice small shack. We spent our 4 days in this place. Drinks are a bit more to the expensive side but the food here is really awesome. The view from the top floor is great and a good place to relax.

A very beautifully located shack in the Kudle beach in Gokarna. They have amazing, lively & energetic staff, very welcoming and cooperative. The food ordered was good , tasty and the service was very quick. Overall had a very good experience, would definitely recommend to visit if you are in Kudle beach.

Came here for brunch. Not my goto planned place. Since it was off season lot of good places are shut. It took good amount to walk with weird narrow route to reach here. Probably I might have entered through wrong lane. Restaurant is quite well setup. Love the ambience around. Proper authentic beach shack. Food, can definitely be improved . We tried English breakfast and Hazza Breakfast. English breakfast doesn’t have sausage but fried chicken. For my liking it was very dry and no salt. Rest from it was decent. Hazza breakfast has roasted potato. Wasn’t cooked well. Felt the rawness of the potato. Rest would say was fine. Coffee and Tea was more like some bachelors preparation. But would recommend this place during season time. Can’t blame the folks much since the customers are less. Service was good. No complaints here.

Madness! Among the best places I have been to in my life! Sat in the place upstairs with their small mattresses and the view of the ocean. Food is excellent! King fish curry with rice, sea food Tikka, squid butter garlic are great. Beer is served cold and perfect! Please do visit :)

The most beautiful and peaceful cafe to sit in . We perpetually lived in this cafe the 2 days we stayed at gokarna. Every meal was from here.. every dish they prepare is so so so yummy.. worth trying the bonafyd pie. We had around 5 times in 3 days. It was delicious. I've had the best Chinese, Italian , Indian every cuisine from this place. The vegetable pakoda is something unforgettable. Yummmm. Do try

A great restaurant with lots of options for sea food. Very spacious and can accommodate a lot of people. Food is very tasty. A variety of fish is there in the menu. They serve alcohol as well. Close to the beach. There is outside seating as well from where one can have a direct view of the beach. Service was very good as well. During lunch it can get a little crowded. But dinner is very peaceful. One can hear the sound of the waves from the nearby beach while enjoying the dinner.

We were a group of 6 friends visiting Mantra Café for a late lunch around 3:30 PM. The vibe was chill and relaxed, but I personally feel the best time to visit is between 5 and 8 PM when the beach breeze sets in, live music starts, and the lights add to the overall atmosphere. We ordered a mix of dishes: Chicken Ghee Roast, Chicken Tikka Pizza, creamy mushroom pasta, fried rice, garlic noodles, and a few drinks like Belgian dark chocolate shake and mocktails. The bill came to around ₹3000 for the group. The ambience is definitely the highlight. Beachfront view, pool table, and good music make it a fun hangout spot. If you’re aiming for the beach-facing seats, be ready to wait a bit as those spots are quite popular. When the place gets crowded, food may take about 30 minutes to arrive. The food was okay overall. While nothing stood out as bad, a few items didn’t fully live up to the expectations or pricing. Still, it’s a decent place for a chill outing, especially in the evening.

This place is a solid 4 stars! It's in the Zostel compound and the views of Gokarna beach are great. The food was pretty decent. The red sauce pasta was surprisingly good. The veggie burger was decent, the paneer ghee roast was excellent. Only peeve with this place was too many flies! Management needs to look into this

Mantra Cafe is Zostel's very own cafe. It is quite aesthetic and spacious. It can be considered romantic. They also have a pool table nearby. The food however is just okay and there are quite limited options on the menu in my opinion. The drinks are very limited in options as well. They just have beer and a handful of cocktails based only on vodka. They probably have no license to sell alcohol. They also have live music and singing at night. However, it's still relaxing to sit at night at the cafe and have a drink or two while chatting with our friends or close ones. Their breakfast however was pretty good despite having limited options. I enjoyed their Mangalore Buns and Egg Cheese Mayo Toast Sandwich. The service is pretty good, very friendly staff members. They try to fulfill all our requests. Overall, very good service.

This restaurant is located on the hill with scenic view of beach. The food was delicious and the service is also great. The ambiance is mind blowing. They have spacious parking space and washrooms are available. Also they have cottages. Overall very good experience.

Very lovely and lively property. The view is scenic if the Gokarna Main beach....A difficult place to find through Google Maps, better to contact the property for that. However, it's close to the Ganapati Temple in Gokarna Main Market.

Great food and ambience. If you go during the day, you'll get a nice view of the beach At night, they have nice music and live singing on weekends. Great place for dinner. Good pizzas and chicken starters. Zostel is right besides it. Parking available outside but the road leading upto it is narrow, prefer bike over car.

This Cafe serves english breakfast, pastas and pizzas additionally roti curries and all such are in their menu, it's worth spending time with friends and family by watching sea and waves from long site. This place is located inside the Zostel property which is very near to cottages and famous for their food and the view

This is the place where you want to go for a peaceful dinning experience with delicious local cuisine. I was hesitant that it was only a veg restaurant but after the first time kept coming back for more. The place gives you vibes of dinning in solace, Kartik who runs the place has a very small joint surrounded by trees and his home. The best thing on the menu is the pizza and garlic bread which comes fresh from the oven. But also their Paneer Butter Masala is amazing. Run it down with some kambucha. For breakfast get freshly prepared dosas, idlis and vadas and you will also get some freshly prepared cold pressed juices.

We had a birthday dinner celebration at the Halfway Home Gokarna. This place gives you typical western/goan costal cafe style vibes. Entrance - 1/5 The entrance pathway is quite narrow and has water stream just on one side of it. It seems bit risky specially in evening or night time as some of the pathway lights were not working properly. Ambiance - 4/5 Overall setup and ambience of this cafe is nice and pleasant. Most of the tables and seating arrangements are of wooden which is done tastefully. Food (Quality, Quantity & Prices) - 4/5 We were group of 4 (2 couples) and had ordered French Fries, Get “a” Feta Pizza, Garlic Penne Pasta, Paneer Manchurian. All the dishes were delicious and we loved the taste. We ordered Halfway Home's well-known 'Kombucha' in Pomegranate and Ginger flavors as the Pineapple and Blue Tea flavours were not available. We had high expectations for their Kombucha special after reading the reviews, but we found it to be average and not particularly special. Staff & Service - 4/5 The staff was good with the services and was attentive.

Had dinner here today, and it was an amazing experience! The ambience is absolutely top-notch and the food was delicious. It’s quite rare to find a place that maintains such high quality in a busy area like Gokarna, but this restaurant does it perfectly. We tried the Crunchy Veg Pizza, Kombucha, Cold-pressed Orange Juice, and Chapati with Paneer Butter Masala — everything was super tasty and freshly made. The owner is genuinely kind and very attentive, making the dining experience even better. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a pure vegetarian restaurant in Gokarna! 🌿✨

The food was very good and it was worth the price. It is a pure vegetarian restaurant which offers items like pizza, pasta, etc. The ambience is also very good. The entrance may be easy to fool anyone into thinking something dull about the restaurant, especially since there is a bigger hotel next to it.

Today we visited Half Way Home restaurant at Gokarn, and it turned out to be a truly delightful experience. The food served here was simply awesome! We started with refreshing Kombucha in ginger and pomegranate flavors — both were unique and full of natural taste. The authentic South Indian vegetarian thali was absolutely delicious, rich in traditional flavors and spices. Even the pizza had a perfect balance of taste and freshness. For anyone who loves authentic South Indian cuisine and wants to enjoy it in a serene coastal setting, Half Way Home is a must-visit restaurant in Gokarn.

This is a very nice cafe,the french fries and pizza are must try. I would also recommend the garlic bread sticks and lemon soda as well. It is cost friendly as well.

Amazing dining experience at Halfway Home Gokarna. We had the South Indian thali for lunch and kombucha. The thali was perfect for 1 person - tasty, healthy and filling. Kombucha was fresh. We came back for dinner and had butter garlic mushroom, pizza, tomato rice and hazelnut cold coffee. Butter garlic mushroom was the highlight! Others were good too. Ambience was simply amazing. During the day, the place was cool even though outside was sunny and hot. At night, the lights and soft music provide a cozy feel. Will definitely visit again and recommend to everyone visiting Gokarna! Do note - the pizza is only available after 5pm. When we came for lunch, only the thali was available.
