Bar Goa Toronto - Best Indian Restaurant guided by MICHELIN 2024

Memorable lunch as we wound down the year on Dec 31. Every dish was unique in its own special way. Can’t wait to return. Lunch set menu at $35 was an outstanding deal.

For our anniversary, we decided to indulge in a special dining experience at Bar Goa, and it exceeded every expectation. This Michelin-starred gem offered more than just a meal; it was a sensory journey. The food was nothing short of exceptional. Each dish was a perfect balance of flavors, meticulously crafted and presented like art on a plate. Every bite told a story—of rich culinary heritage intertwined with innovative twists. It was delicious, memorable, and a true experience for the palate. The service was impeccable. The staff was attentive yet unobtrusive, guiding us through the menu with genuine enthusiasm and offering thoughtful recommendations. Their warmth and helpfulness added to the charm of the evening. The ambience was equally remarkable. With soft lighting, elegant décor, and a soothing vibe, it created an intimate and romantic atmosphere, perfect for a celebratory occasion like ours. Bar Goa is not just a restaurant; it’s a celebration of fine dining at its best. It left us with lasting memories and a promise to return. If you're looking for a place to mark a special day or simply want to treat yourself to an extraordinary meal, this is the place to be!

We went to Bar Goa for a team holiday celebration and it did not disappoint. It's a great place for groups as their menu is very shareable. The food was inventive, attractive, and absolutely delicious. The server's recommendation were excellent. They do not shy away from spice which was welcomed. For me, the standout dishes were CHICKEN PEPPER FRY ‘KULCHA TACO‘, CHARCOAL DAL MAKHNI, CHARCOAL BUTTER CHICKEN, PRAWN BALCHAO TOAST, LEGENDARY LAMB CHOP, but everything we had was great. The music (which included Bollywood trap, and yes, I asked for the playlist name from the server - it's Bar Goa Toronto) had me bopping in my seat all night. The only downside to our experience was that the washrooms are awkward as they are shared with the office building and require a passkey to access. But this is a minor detail. Highly recommend and would go back.

The best Indian cuisine any taste buds can experience! We shared multiple dishes and every single one was a festival of flavours in perfect harmony. Some of us are still having flashbacks thinking about the Goan Prawn Curry. From being greeted and hosted like family to the fantastic flavours and aromas, Bar Goa is truly a memorable dining experience that leaves you curious to try more and all the menu. Strongly recommended.

Came for a quick lunch and was impressed by the uniqueness of the menu and the powerful flavours. Their appetizers menu looks fantastic and I’ll have to come back for their ‘tacos’. The mushroom dish with the accompanying broth was so full of flavour and umami. The prawn toast dish was spicer than expected and leaves a nice lingering spice in your mouth after the first bite. It reminded me a little of a chili and it was delicious. Lamb chops are one of their signatures and it was cooked very well with a nice accompaniment of chutneys. Very tender. Will have to come back to try their chicken tikka.

Impressive experience! Overall flavourful food, friendly service and warm atmosphere. I was on a strict no/low carb diet so could not sample most plates. But the cottage cheese (paneer) cubes and chicken tikka/kebabs were juicy and flavourful (both plates are highly recommended for people on keto/low carb diet). Lamb chops too were tender and quite tasty with appropriate amount of seasonings. The flavoured rice (biriyani) looked fairly / could be slightly over seasoned. My friend was cautious coz of the color but still recommended it. The lamb shank was extremely tender.

Awesome evening my family spent at BAR GOA... It is one of the best places to dine in in Toronto. If you are in the downtown area .. go..dine in and give your senses an experience that's at a different level. The food.. Awesome taste. Awesome presentation. Tried Goan Prawn Curry and just loved it. Must try when you are there. Ambiance is great , be it just a date night or a gathering of friends and family.. Book in advance , it gets busy really quickly. Service is also up to the standards .. no wonder it's got Michelin star 2024.
