Incredibly rude staff. They treat Indians as if they are some low creatures who don't deserve any respect. When we asked about starters, very rudely this head waiter asked us to order starters and main course at the same time. Then brought out the main course first. When we requested that starters be served first, this guy literally snatched the main course, dumped the starters on our table and then later dumped the main course on the table. Foreigners get royalty treatment. Well hello, we aren't some beggars who begged for free food, we are paying customers as well ..

Sat on top tier which was relaxing and good sunset view. Tibetan menu with other food options but momos were the best! Salads and fish in banana leaf were very tasty too and massive portions! Reasonably priced and very friendly staff. Went twice as was so good, a bit of a wait but worth it as can use Wifi or admire the view. Highly recommended.

Good breakfast, good pizza, good chop suey. The staff is really cool and friendly. Good juices and smoothies too. I needed a break from curry, and although they also have an indian menu, they can prepare a lot of other things too - the menu is varies and they have a stone oven for pizzas. I really thank these guys for giving me good food! Sometimes in India its hard to find good food unless is indian, (fare enough) so I was very happy to keep going back at Mama Champos. And yes, they have a nice garden/seating area. Very pleasant. Good prices too.

Sunrise Restaurant has the dirtiest kitchen, toilets, tablecloths, seats, floor of all restaurants in Varkala cliff. It may give you an idea of the management hygiene concern and food quality served here. It might not be a problem for short term tourists but it is a major one for long term and locals who know something's wrong here.But, there is another major issue... Water.Sometimes, customers are being sold refilled bottled water... Refilled with what ? Guess... Tap water coming from a filthy tank located above the restaurant !I checked it out asking a glass of water after my meal and follow the waiter to witness him filling a glass with tap water... Shocking. I let you imagine how fruit juices are made...How come ? Why ? Just basic greed.I have been travelling India for more than 30 years and seen things evolving for the good, especially water concern. Except for the most remote areas, customers are now being given either boiled water, purified water using a pink antiseptic. Some restaurants owners even use water fountain. It is the case on Varkala Cliff were all restaurants provide regular drinking water to customers, some of them free of charge. So be careful and stay away from Sunrise Restaurant except if your health is not important.

I had dinner at this place on Feb 13th, overpriced and not a lot of items on menu that we could order. We ordered paneer and chapati. Just wanted to say that we didn't need spoon or knife, Chapati done all the job.

Totally recommended healthy breakfast and smoothie bowls. A meal is going to fill your heart with happiness and satisfaction. Darjeeling Cafe is my favourite places on main cliff, there could be waiting for this place, it is always crowded. One of the finest in the area. Great vibe.

I tried this restaurant because they had quite many options for the seafood . Each evening there fresh seafood and fish placed in front of the restaurant. I went twice here, one lunch and one dinner. Lunch I ordered buttered fish snapper, portion is big however tasted not so fresh, seems the fish was from last night, and dinner order the vegetable platter and it was ok , not so impressive.However the staffs here are really welcoming and warm hospitality , and i enjoying the view as well.
