We recently had dinner at Heliconia at JW Marriott Goa and tried their set menus both non veg and vegetarian. The restaurant does Japanese Peruvian cuisine and they also offer an à la carte menu which makes it a great option whether you want a curated experience or to pick your own dishes. The non veg set began with rock shrimp which was beautifully cooked and full of flavour. This was followed by chicken gyoza and a maki roll featuring prawns uramaki sushi which was fresh and well balanced. The kingfish miso for mains was a highlight. Soft flaky fish with subtle flavours that really stood out. Dessert was a Peruvian tres leches served with strawberry yogurt and it was light refreshing and not overly sweet. The vegetarian set menu was equally impressive. The rock corn with spicy mayo yuzu drops almonds quinoa and more had great texture and a lovely punch. The mushroom gyoza was comforting and flavourful. The crispy asparagus and cheese maki roll was fun and well done. For mains the yaki meshi with tofu edamame and vegetables was wholesome and satisfying. Dessert was the chocolate pebble which was a dark chocolate mousse and felt indulgent without being heavy. We also tried a few cocktails and mocktails which were really well crafted and paired nicely with the food. Overall Heliconia offers a refined dining experience with thoughtful flavours great presentation and attentive service. Perfect for a special dinner or when you want to try something different in Goa. Would definitely return.

Amazing food is honestly putting it lightly. Every dish we tried was full of flavour yet felt incredibly light and clean. You can tell that only the freshest, high-quality ingredients were used, with absolutely no shortcuts. What made the experience even more memorable was the service - Mhale went above and beyond, genuinely invested in ensuring everything was just right. From start to finish, it was a meal that left a lasting impression, both in taste and experience.

The most amazing fine dine place we have been to. The most exquisite food and ingredients used, definitely recommend. Great service by Rahul. The head chef is from Peru and there are very few Peruvian Japanese cuisine places in India

This place was okay overall, but the experience was a bit disappointing. The food menu has a decent variety, but the food itself was very oily and the taste was just average. Because the food was quite spicy and oily, my baby could not eat it. We repeatedly asked the staff for ketchup, which is a very simple thing, but they still did not bring it. That was quite disappointing. The place itself is fine but there is not much vibe or ambience. Overall the experience felt average mainly because of the oily food and the service issue.

The food was extremely disappointing.. undercooked, cold with no flavor whatsoever, however the brunch this was extremely disappointing experience. Would not go there again. The ratings are only for the good service and drinks.
