We recently ate at Viva Goa Cuisine and hands down, it was absolutely amazing! We tried the prawns fry, promfret fry, Bombay duck fry, along with biryani and chicken coconut gravy. Every single dish was packed with authentic Goan flavors and so well prepared. The prawns fry and Bombay duck were definitely my favorites, perfectly seasoned, crispy, and full of that coastal spice that instantly reminded me of Goa. The chicken coconut gravy was rich and comforting, and the biryani complemented everything beautifully. It genuinely felt like a little trip back to Goa. The quality, taste, and portion size made it completely worth the cost. If you’re craving authentic Goan food, this place is definitely worth a try!

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

This is a long overdue review about an incredible restaurant worth visiting if you’re in Houston. My family and I were visiting Houston for a two day work trip. I happened to stumble upon Viva Goa while stuck in traffic and told my husband about it when I got to the hotel. Being Goan, he thought we should check it out. And we did. The food was absolutely delectable and so reasonable. It felt like a Goan grandmothers cooking made with so much love. We absolutely loved every dish that we tried and would give this place a 10/10 rating. We loved it so much that we came the following night for dinner and the afternoon before our departure. And finally we took tons of food in our cooler back home that we absolutely devoured in the days to come. We cant wait to visit Houston again and you best believe we will be eating here everyday. Viva Viva Goa team. You guys rock. Mog asu 💕

Wonderful Goan food. The fish fry is excellent. I don’t know any other place that serves Bombay Duck (a fish not duck). Every dish we had was excellent.
