I had dinner many times at this restaurant while staying at the hotel and, now that I know it, I must say I would still go and eat there even if I didn't stay in the hotel! really excellent food, simple but comprehensive menu really perfectly executed - buonissimo!

Four of us went there for lunch at the restaurant. We received a warm welcome at the reception and were directed to park our car in the premises by a smart, welcoming receptionist. We ordered Pork Vindaloo, Roast Beef and Kerala fish curry. All the three dishes were wonderful and the service was extremely good too. Would strongly recommend this... More

So, we ended up here after a bad experience at another restaurant. But that incident turned out to be a remarkable blessing. Because we took a rickshaw here and found ourselves in a hidden paradise. Try the tuna ... it's like nothing anywhere and it's delicious. So is the calamari. The wait staff are polite. The food is great. The... More

We ate here during our stay in Kochi - the food was great, the view is even better. The only downside is the lack of booze but that is part of being in India. The place next door serves beer in any case. Service is a little slow but with such a nice view that is not a problem

We dined on the open air jetty. The constant sea breeze was delightful, no mosquito to worry about. The food quite good but service was very slow. Menu was quite limited and they do not have a license to serve alcohol.

Fort House Restaurant, located on a picaresque dock jutting out slightly into the water, is my favorite restaurant in Cochi, just for the ambiance. The food was also good, local cuisine, but not more-so than many other places, and has better than expected (which is not a high expectation) service. It's major downfall is no liquor license (although BYOB may... More

Have been enjoying the food and ambience of this restaurant for the past few years. The food is fantastic - very fresh and wonderfully tasty, and I have also enjoyed a variety of excellent vegetarian dishes as well - once you advise the very friendly staff of your particular needs, they are very helpful to advise what can be catered...
