Malabar Hotel

Long-running local hotel serving Konkani-style fish curry and rice

One of the older eating establishments in Karwar's market area, Malabar Hotel has the kind of worn-in reliability that comes from cooking the same dishes well for decades. The fish curry rice — coconut-based gravy, a piece of whatever fish came in that morning — is the house staple. Crab masala and prawn ghee roast are also on the menu when available. The dining room is basic, the service unhurried, and the bill unlikely to cause any discomfort.
