    Pathetic experience ever and poor service. Specially decided to go here as it was a suggestion from someone. Visited this place on Sunday night. They had live music which was really good initially but waited 15min and no waiter attended us even though we called him. Had to personally go to counter and ask for waiter to give menu at first place 20mins for this. After all this waiter doesn't know what the basic dishes on menu. Left after just trying one starter which was nice but good food is of no use if you if people dont get the food at all. Had to go to different place to get food. Evening wasted It was so bad that people were walking upto counter and getting their own drinks as that was the fastest something you could get. I guess they could only manage tables equivalent to waiters. Will never visit this place again nor will recommend. Worst experience ever

    The food at this place was exceptional. One of the best lasagnas I've had. The butter herbed veggies were also extremely tasty. The mashed potato was creamy and moist, like how they make on Masterchef Australia. :P It's more of a seafood and Goan cuisine place, so veggie options were not too many. But what was served was delicious. The place opens only by lunch, so you can go by 1 pm or so. I've not given it a five star rating because the food took very long to be served, around half an hour. It's a restaurant on the more expensive side (around 350-400 per dish), but the food is worth it. (Update: I went back there a second time, and this time, we ordered North Indian food. We ordered 3 kulchas and a paneer lababdar. The paneer was extraordinary. Doesn't compare to the masaledar gravies we get in Bangalore. It was subtle and sophisticated, and full of flavour. The kulchas, on the other hand, were extremely generous. Unlike Bangalore where they serve two pieces usually, these kulchas came with some 6-7 pieces each. They were light and fluffy, but still two of us couldn't finish even one and a half. So order only two, if you're just two ppl.)

    Babs was really a hidden gem, a true hideout. I am so glad a friend recommended this place or else I would never have known about it. I like trying different places but all 6 of us were so impressed and happy with the food and drink so decided to go back on 2nd Jan but unfortunately it was closed. It's not on the beach and is in a narrow road but has it's own parking which is great. The thatched roof gave it a shack vibe. The food and alcohol were excellent. The drinks had alcohol taste and wasn't just watered down. All the food dishes were really tasty but the highlight was the malai fish tikka that was outstanding. It was way better than any malai chicken I've had and the fish was so fresh you couldn't tell it was fish! It was also so perfectly cooked it melted in the mouth. I'll definitely be going back just for that! Overall a really good lunch and atmosphere. 1 star less as the toilet was very dirty even though we were the first customers, else this would have been 5 stars.

    My experience at Babs Hideout was truly exceptional. From the moment I walked in, the cozy ambiance set the stage for a memorable dining experience. The diverse menu offered a wide array of tantalizing options, from creative cocktails and starters to flavorful main courses. Each dish was thoughtfully prepared and bursting with unique flavors. The staff was attentive and friendly, adding to the overall welcoming atmosphere. The attention to detail and commitment to quality were evident in every aspect of the meal. Babs Hideout is a gem for anyone seeking a culinary adventure, and I can't wait to return for another delightful dining experience. The cocktails & mocktails i have tried are THD, meet me Backside, watermelon basil mojito, Bab’s pretty visitor. For the starters I have tried Hawaiian Herb Chicken, Cheesy Baked Barbeque Beef Meatballs, Bab's On Fire ( chicken wings ), Kingfish masala rava fry, calamari batter fry, Bacon Cheese & Ham Crunch. For the main course i have tried Kadai Chicken with Cheese Garlic Naan, Oats Coated Fish Fingers, Fettuccine Alfredo pasta. For the dessert i have tried Lemon Baked Cheese Cake.

    Had a lovely dinner here. It's located near Benaulim Beach. The live music was really awesome. The food was great, they have a variety of options too. Perfect for dates and hanging out. The ambience is also pretty.

    Best one in Goa Food taste was sooo good Our family is from Karnataka and we are very choosy in food, but the food served in this restaurant was so tasty. Please do visit.

  • 2/5 Henzil L. 5 years ago on Google
    Utterly disappointed with the restaurant. 1) At first, upon placing the order for starters, drinks and main course items, the drinks ought to be served within the first 5 minutes which was not the case here! 2) The Chicken Malai Kabab had an awkward essence of elaichi which doesn't suit the dish in general. The salad dressing suffered the same. 3) The Chicken crispy did not at all live up to the name. (Not crispy at all!). On the whole, it's only the ambience that captivates one to this venue. Choose wisely!

    Ambience is lovely! Food is great too. Much better than the restaurants present along the beach. I had cheese beef meatballs which I really liked. Must visit when in Benaulim.

  • 3/5 Abhishek D. 4 years ago on Google
    Average food. They put rose water kind of thing in the rice dishes to enhance the taste. But if u r a spicy food lover u wouldn't like it at all. Ambience is good. You may have to face mosquitoes at the outside tables.

    Good Ambience, Average Food Taste, Slow Service & Not Pocket Friendly. Ok to visit for an experience.

    Great Good, great vibes and a chilled ambience. The service is very good, the food is delicious and on days when there is Karaoke and music it's really fun and entertaining. Stays open quite late in Benaulim. Should visit for some good vibes on casual days.

    The ambiance is good and it's a great place to hangout with friends. The staff is great. The price of the food items are reasonable. I loved the food specially the beef steak. Would definitely visit it again and recommended others to visit it too.

    Delicious food, great atmosphere and most important is welcome with smile, food with good quality. Drinks with plenty of options. 'Guru' the man who took our order is jolly, funny, informative. From Goan to North indian variety of options available. No doubt one of the best in South Goa (benalium).

    I had an amazing experience at Baab's Hideout! The food was absolutely delicious. The barbeque, kebabs, and steak were all prepared to perfection, leaving my taste buds in awe. The live music added a fantastic vibe to the atmosphere and enhanced the already delightful ambiance. The service was impeccable, and I was particularly impressed with how attentive and friendly the staff were. I must commend the owner Savio Rodrigues for his remarkable work. He with his positive and friendly attitude is doing a fantastic job in maintaining such high standards. I'm already looking forward to my next visit for another round of exquisite food, live music, and impeccable service!

    Good food, good ambience and reasonable prices. Attached with a bar that serves liquor at moderate prices. The waiters are helpful and quick with service. Ample seating available at this restaurant. Parking outside for 2 wheelers is no issue. But for cars one has to find a place as the restaurant is situated in a normal lane. Toilets are relatively clean and well maintained. Cards accepted here. Would definitely revisit.
