I stumbled upon a quaint, family run Asian restaurant in Bogmalo, at the end of a narrow village road. The area isn't well known for its food, so imagine my surprise to come across an Asian restaurant run by a Goan-Indonesian family who have lived in the Far East. The entire family is hands-on when it comes to running the restaurant. I was told by the daughter that 'Masak' in Indonesia means 'cook.' While their mother is behind the scenes in terms of the food, the kids actively manage the floor. The menu was concise and curated so well as to introduce Asian flavours to the area by way of familiar textures and flavours. And it seems to be working, for the restaurant sees a flow of locals and repeat guests, even though it is so new. Try the papaya salad (Som Tam) - it is made with home grown papayas plucked by the family. The Chicken Katsu is a crowd favourite, and the steak as well as the fish make for delicious mains. The menu has items like tempura, sushi, ramen, grills, curries, Khao Suey, wok-tossed stir fries and noodles and more. Definitely worth checking out!

Great food overall. The Beef short rib pho deserves a repeat visit. It was that good. Crispy prawn sushi was great too.

We went here on a weekday. The papaya salad was good. The ambience is very cosy. The service is ok. However the chicken satay and shushii snt worth it. Have eaten much better asian in 10km radius. The high rates do not justify the food at all. The liqour rates are higher than those even in Bangalore. Overall 2 stars for ambience and service. Ohh yea they add service charge to the bill.

We had arrived with our baby for our stay in dad's yard..however due to early check-in we were asked to wait for sometime. My baby (5 month old) was not very comfortable because we had travelled for 1 hr. It was our last day of two weeks goa visit. We thought of sitting in the restaurant for sometime under the fan however the restaurant lady asked us to sit on of the tables where there was no fan and lot of mosquitos...when asked if we could sit near the fan she said only if we wish to dine there. We had no issues of having food there just that the wait was for 5 minutes and we ended sitting in the corner and got bit my mosquitos. When we got to know the wait would be more ,we ended up ordering some food and moved ourselves under the fan. The food we ordered Jasmine rice,steam rice and Thai red curry was okkiesh. Rice was undercooked

The place is well maintained but the service and food quality is not upto the mark. Our starters were served after 45-50 mins and the quality was also not good. The chicken satay suggested by the attendant seemed to be made of frozen chicken and was not fresh at all. Also, the taste was not worth the price. The pork ribs seemed to be floating in oil and there was more of "charbi" and significantly zero flesh in the serving. The price is also on the higher side. Also, the restaurant was quite empty and didn't seem to have visitors often.
