Mango Mirchi Restaurant

Dropped into Mango Mirchi, Mississauga, one of our recent favorite spots for Goan + Mangalorean specialties. While we usually take out (or uber eats) from the place, we were craving some Konkan coastal fish fry, which is best had dine-in. The Surmai/Anjal rava fry (King Fish) and Pomfret fry stuffed with rechado masala were absolutely divine. We ended the meal with a spicy yet yummy vindaloo that hit all the right notes. Cozy place with incredible food, and the owner’s warm hospitality makes the experience even better. They also do party catering orders, some of the regular favorites are prawns mango curry, chicken bunts curry and sorpotel. Highly recommend this hidden gem for authentic coastal flavors!

Went here a while back, the restaurant was empty and wasn't sure if the food would be good, but wasn't disappointed, the food was excellent. We were searching for a Goan restaurant and this came in the suggestions..when we reached it was a bit confusing since the outside and inside pics of the restaurant are different from what you see in Google reviews..the management should update it since it was the older location. Their fish curry honestly reminded me of Goa even though I have been there just once, but the best dish was the Goat curry hands down! It was probably one of the best goat curry I have ever had. Their prawns and chicken biryani were also good. Totally recommended for people who love fish.

A hidden spot for Goan cuisine. Was hoping to have their Goan Crab curry, but they did not have it when I visited. Tried the prawn and raw mango curry, it was really delicious. Raw mangoes had a nice tang that went well with the coconut based curry and the prawns tasted fresh. The curry doesn’t come with rice though and I was asked by the waiter to pay an additional $6 for basmati as you “can’t eat curry without it” the curry was already pretty expensive so I didn’t order rice, but the chef was kind enough to provide a complimentary bowl of rice. Also had their bebinca for dessert. These delicious almost pancake like bits layered with syrup and ghee were delicious, but were also expensive for the small portion. The interior is a bit dated, but feels humble and homelike. The restaurant was a bit empty, but it could have just been my timing. Staff was very helpful and attentive.
