Bar Goa was busy Christmas night but short staffed. We felt a little ignored while others who entered after us got their orders taken before us. One waiter said, "sorry we're busy tonight" and kept going. Finally our waitress came. She was very nice and helpful in decided the spice level of my mushroom fried rice. The food service was a little slow too. But! The food was delicious. We ordered the sampler appetizer, fish curry and mushroom fried rice. Very satisfied with the food! We were happy the manager came to check on us and apologize for the slow service. It made our experience much better. The ambiance is cozy, good Christmas music and the decor is culturally eclectic.

We loved our experience at Bar Goa! The butter chicken and drinks were amazing, and we were really grateful for all the clearly marked gluten free options.

The food and drinks were delicious. The staff were very attentive and helpful. The atmosphere was casual and fun. The only negative was the price for a side of rice. That seemed high for a small bowl that typically comes with the meal. But overall it was a great dining experience.

Overall it was a good experience. I would recommend trying their aloo chat and paneer makhani but defiantly pass cauliflower 65 as starters (it was just fried with no flovor/)

Great food and variety. On the spicy side (make sure that works for all members of your party). Would definitely return.

Final check included 20% gratuity. Server did not mention this. The final receipt had a section where we could add 20%-25% gratuity…on top of the 20% gratuity already included. We confronted the owner about it and he shirked it off as a ‘technical error’. I wonder how many people are paying 40% tip who dine here and don’t look closely at the bill.
