We stopped in for a quick dinner and ended up savoring every bite of the brochetas we ordered! Great value and quality.
9. BhaktiLunch Vegano
I decided to open this restaurant because there are no vegan or vegetarian options, the only ones are other restaurants that share their cuisine with foods of animal origin. I assumed that many would have the same problem as me. So Bhakti Lunch opens its

I stayed in Salinas for 4 months (January-Mach). I got this restaurant recommended to go in for a day or two until I get settled. However the food was unbelievable delicious that I went everyday during my stay.Rebeca and Mario, the owners are very good hosts. They make you feel at home, in a new family. Conting my days to go back..
8. La Isla del Marisco
Reviewed By bobperata
Service and food was excellent. But, they let, unfortunately, a VERY Unscrupulous organization and group of people use their restaurant to sell condo-shares or apartments. Very sad to see 2-3 different people high-pressure couples to buy something that they are familiar with. Very bad!!

This easily became my favorite eatery in Playa Las Salinas because of its vicinity to my apartment (on the same block). I could have anything I wanted: ceviche, fried whole fish, fried filet of fish, big shrimps, seafood rice, etc.. Cold beer was inexpensive, lemonade was freshly squeezed, and the environment was quite people first (the customer). I always had my favorite seat at the bar and got the best service. When it came time to pay the bill, I felt like there must be a mistake because I was so full and my bill was usually $10-12 for a plate of food and 2-3 beers. I must to also mention that Playa Las Salinas has a number of eateries that you can't go wrong with serving quality fresh seafood, however, this was my favorite service and environment and I will eat again and again when visiting Salinas. Happy Travels!!!!.

Located near midway of Panchgani and Mahabaleshwar, this is one of the local attractions that draws huge crowds of visitors.There is a nice well maintained garden, a small glass window factory showcasing how Mapro products are made, a restaurant offering variety of foods plus ice creams etc, and a big sales shop selling various Mapro products at a discount. Visitors spend time enjoying open restaurant and or purchasing Mapro products like jams and syrups made from local fruits like Strawberries etc.Enough place for parking across the road where one can find small stalls selling local fresh fruits too.

This is a smaller restaurant that overlooks the malacón and the beach in Salinas. Seafood, beautifully presented and absolutely delicious!! My husband said it was thr best fried fish he'd ever had, my shrimp pasta was superb, the lobster was amazing and the fried shrimp were awesome! The place is nothing fancy, service was good, BUT the food said it all! Highly recommended!!

While on a vacation we were taken here on advice and with family. Service was good and the food was decent. With the exception of all of the people peddling items and the minstrel singers, it would have been even better. You just can't eat in peace and enjoy a conversation with each other. Food was served hit and on time. Great value for the money. There were 11 of us and it the bill came to $80.00 or so. Would recommend this place if you can handle the interruptions. Good value and pretty decent food.

I've been to Sogale twice, and have enjoyed both experiences. The latest trip was a Valentine's lunch with my wife. Due to our first meal at Sogale being excellent, the bar was set high for the second, and have to say there was a hair of a letdown. I ordered the lunch of the day and my wife the ceviche mixto. Lunch of the day, consisted of a stuffed zucchini starter(very unique), a egg drop/chicken asian fusion soup(crazy good), a main course of pork with sweet and sour sauce, and came with a mango juice. The food, not including the soup, came out room temp., but good flavors all around. My wife had a ceviche, which is seafood mixed with peppers, onion, tomatoes, and usually a lime based sauce. My wife likes it served cold like a shrimp coctail, and it too was a bit room temp. Other than that, pricing was around 20$ which is good considering that the place seems very popular. Only other down side was the wait for the food was a bit longer than I remembered from the first, but the crowd was huge, maybe a reason for it. Try the corvina in salsa mariscos, it's a sea bass topped with a creamy seafood salsa, or the camarones ajillo,grilled shrimp in a garlic sauce...both crazy good.

This place is very close to the beach, so great location. Nice spacious interior. I ordered chicken and rice, and it was pretty disappointing. My friend ordered ceviche with shrimp, which apparently was good. So I'd rate the chicken "poor." Service was prompt and friendly however and prices are good.
