There’s no place quite like Goa. But beyond its beaches and sunsets, something else is happening here, as Goa’s food scene is evolving like never before. Several new restaurants have opened up across Goa, each bringing its own mood, flavour, and story this November. So whether you’re a regular visitor who thinks you’ve tried it all, or someone planning your first Goan getaway, here’s a guide to the newest restaurants that are making waves.
New Restaurants In Goa To Check Out This November
1. Lizard King Brewing Co.
If you like your evenings loud, unapologetic, and full of character, then Lizard King Brewing Co. is where you need to be. This new brewpub is built on beer, music, and rebellion. The brewery’s stainless-steel tanks gleam behind the bar, surrounded by rock posters, vintage lights, and an artist’s mural showing how each beer comes to life. The beer list is the star of the show, with classics like Pilsner, Belgian Wit, and Irish Stout, alongside creative ciders like Apple and Mango. The food menu matches the spirit: think stout-battered fish and chips, hearty pies, and fried steaks that are as comforting as they are indulgent.

Virat Kohli’s one8 Commune has finally come home to Goa, and it couldn’t have picked a more beautiful setting. Perched along the Chapora riverside, this new outpost offers the perfect mix of comfort, good food, and the relaxed rhythm of Goan life. Inside, the rustic Italian-inspired décor adds warmth, with wood-fronted bars, glass doors, and cosy indoor lounges. The menu features mezze platters, truffle mushroom phyllo, burrata with chilli oil, and kimchi-tuna bowls, along with comforting pizzas, sliders, and rice bowls. The Goan touch shines through in dishes like butter garlic seafood, recheado squid fry, achari pomfret, and crab pepper roast.

3. Amocasa At Oliveto, The St. Regis Goa Resort
Dining at Amocasa inside The St. Regis Goa Resort is an experience that unfolds course by course, with elegance and storytelling at every step. Amocasa takes inspiration from the Japanese concept of Omakase, where guests trust the chef to surprise them, but adds an Italian soul to it. Led by Chef Silvio, Amocasa reimagines this idea as a warm, Italian house-style dinner where small plates, pizzas, pastas, and risottos flow naturally through the evening. The intimate setup seats just 30 guests, making it a rare and personal experience. The evening ends with stunning desserts that blend Italian charm and Goan sweetness.

The food is hearty and fearless, like their rich Liver and Gurda, crafted for those who love bold Indian flavours, or the Torched Mackerel, a perfectly seared fish that bursts with smoky charm. To match, there are playful cocktails like the Tequila Mockingbird, which has just the right mix of cheek and kick.
