I have visited Lazy Goose, a hidden gem a couple times. Recently, I visited Lazy Goose this past Sunday for brunch with a close friend. Praveena, the owner went over and above and made our lunch visit exceptional! Since my friend and I are vegetarian, we ordered different vegetarian appetizers which was truly amazing! The ambience, live music, scenic view of the river and the extra special care and touches by the wait staff made our visit even more special. I was truly touched by the warm welcome by the wait staff and their suggestion on a special cocktail for me that was not on the menu. Thank you Praveena! And thank you to your wait staff! Truly grateful for this experience! Will definitely visit again! Loved my Italian pasta. Live music + good food is the best combination ever! It very hard for any first-timer to find the entrance ( in that weird location - below the bridge) Finding a parking slot was another big challenge for us 😌 Lazy Goose is a hidden gem. Located off the road, and right on the river, it has great ambiance to match the tasty food selection. Live music is generally being played as well. If you enjoy fresh seafood, this is a great place to check out. Daytime visits give a great view of the river while you are enjoying fresh fish or crab or any other items you may try. They are pet friendly and the staff are great. Very nice place to have a brunch or evening meal.

I visited The Lazy Goose for the first time with my friends and we loved it. The food, the staff, the ambiance, everything was spot on. We visited on a Sunday evening and we here was live music as well. If you’re going to Goa make sure you don’t miss this place. Here’s what we tried: - Butter Garlic Calamari - Fried Chicken Burger - The catch of the day (fish) - Prawns Jalapeño Butter Garlic The food was 10/10 and you’ll love the view.

Had a fantastic evening at the Lazy Goose. The servers Vishnu and Shishir took excellent care of us and suggested the best items on the menu to our liking. We had the Cheese Fondue which is a must if you love a creamy cheesy starter that's warm and crunchy. I had the pork belly over risotto which was absolutely succulent and the risotto was a perfect combo to cut some of the strong flavours from the pork sauce. The cocktails were so delicious that you keep going for more. All this topped with great Goan and western music was an evening to remember. Highly recommend for a secluded riverside restaurant with your partner or family.
