Reviews
"This place was suggested to us by the person we were celebrating for their birthday. It’s a beautiful spot, nice atmosphere. We were a party of 6 seated at their “hightop” table. Our waiter was great & attentive. It was a lot of our first time there & he answered any of our questions we had about the menu items. I wanted the lamb special for February, however they were out of lamb so I chose the Goan Fish Curry & garlic naan instead of rice. The curry had great flavor but I loved even more the halibut, shrimp & crab meat that was inside. We also got the Crab Pani Puri for an appetizer & it was a different but fun experience. Other meals we got were the Piri Piri Chicken. The chicken was great & the gun powder fries were delish! We also tried the fried yucca & it was delicious as well. The seasoning on them were a nice complement to the yucca. I would definitely return & try some of the cocktails on the menu & hopefully finally try the lamb dish I wanted. Would definitely recommend if you’re interested in trying a different & unique combination of Indian-Portuguese fusion!"
"My friend and I sat on the patio facing the Heights Trail. I absolutely love the location for the Heights area because it’s so centrally located between shepherd and Yale that walking is possibly for those that live here. Houston needs more of this. The food was fantastic. When they ask if you want spicy, get it, trust me. It added a nice kick that didn’t melt my intestines and dissolve my tongue. Portuguese and Indian fusion goes together so well. Perfect flavor. I’m a cheese person so I had paneer and goat cheese (separate dishes) and they were tasty, the perfect temperature when served, and a good portion to share. And not like a 40lb plate where sharing is recommended. These were small plates but sharing allowed me to not waddle out of there. I recommend this place."
"This is a wonderful place to satisfy your periodic cravings for Indian food. The flavors in all of the dishes are outstanding, the meats are tender and succulent, and there is a modest zing of heat (although regular Indian food consumers would probably say it's too mild) The naan is utterly delectable, light and crisp with a great taste and texture. The atmosphere is warm, welcoming, and trendy with plenty of table seating and a magnificent bar as a backdrop. I only rate the restaurant with four stars because it is a bit pricey for what you receive. Most of the cocktails are $15 plus, the tapas plates are $14 plus, the entrees are $18 plus, and you get charged extra for rice and naan. If they would reduce the serving size by about 25% for lunch and correspondingly drop the prices per item by $3 to $4 , I would probably make this place a regular weekly lunch spot. I think many other Indian cuisine lovers would join me in doing this."
"Had a really delicious lunch today at Da Gama! Didn’t catch our waiter’s name but he was very pleasant and helpful with suggestions. 1st one was the crab pani puri - Amazing 2nd samosas - delicious. 3rd goat’s cheese with tomato sauce and grilled sourdough 4th octopus. 5th tiramisu . The only one dish that was slightly disappointing was the octopus. It was a bit chewy. The rest were all excellent!"
"Brought friends and family to try this interesting fusion of flavors and we all had a great time. Forgot to take pictures of the main entrees - we tried the snapper piri piri dish and saag paneer (which was a bit runnier than preferred) - both delicious! Desserts were a bit sweet for me, but everyone else enjoyed them."
