Thalassa

Top choice in North Goa


North Goa's most famous Greek restaurant was forced out of its long-running Vagator location in 2018 but has found a new waterfront home at Teso in Siolim. Still authentic and awesomely good Greek food is served al fresco overlooking the Chapora River.

Kebabs, souvlaki and thoughtful seafood dishes are the speciality, but this is also a great bar and it usually fills up late in the evening when you might see some Greek dancing and plate smashing. Come early, order a jug of sangria and enjoy the sunset over Chapora harbour.
