We only popped in for a drink on our first day, and saw the food served. Been nearly every night. The red snapper cooked in the tandoori oven was incredible, as was everything. Tonight I had pan fried seafood noodles… heaven on a plate. Do...try this place, you won’t be disappointed.More

Waited for over half an hour at a table but no signs of anyone taking any notice. We called a waited twice but they were not interested in even giving us a menu, leave alone taking orders for food! Seems a busy place and frankly...badly run, with fewer waiters than they should have for the number of tables. To be honest we got the feeling that if we were white tourists we would have got more attention, not for the first time in a restaurant in India :( Even complaining at the main desk didn’t have any effect, they just shrugged their shoulders as if they couldn’t care less. I’d never go again!More

We are sorry for your experience, but you are wrong. We never mix beer with water and the price we charge is the normal price for beer. Regards Abba Restaurant

Varkala has been my destination for relax , had been here from 2017 and this place never disappoints with the quality of the food and the beautiful views from the restaurant. my rating would have been excellent but the only concern for me is the...way they treat the Indians.. but foreigners this is definitely a goto place in Varkala. Only suggestion to the management is :- From 2017(the year i started to visit varkala) still feel the same with them.. i think rather than concentrating on the race just concentrate on human being and be happy, of course i do give tips and respect everyone there.More

Worst food. I didn't like any of the food that was served to me. Really pathetic. Because it's a German Bakery I ordered western style food varieties. None of them tasted good. Maybe Indian would have been better but I didn't try it. Moreover it's...mentioned as German Bakery then western style food should be atleast have an average taste. Service 5/5More

No absolutely not! The restaurant is known for its friendly, service minded staff and good food. Almost all the other reviews are telling about that.
