One of the key pleasures of South Indian gastronomy is their fabulous coastal food, succulent morsels of seafood swimming in gravy or roasted to perfection. The biggest pull about coastal cuisine is the immense variety of seafood on offer. From clams to lobster to fish to crab, a foodie can lose himself in the pleasures of dining on what sea has to offer. Bengaluru gets an amazing sea produce every day and uses the fresh produce in its food in most delicious manner but sometime it gets a backseat when displayed with other meat items. At ‘The Fisherman’s Wharf’ it’s all about the seafood. One gets to feast on a most marvellous spread of sea fare cooked in every possible way. Its located at Sarjapur Road in Southern Bengaluru.

You can’t escape coastal cuisine without going for their traditional desserts of, gulab jamoon, bebinca, rasmalai, crème caramel, devil’s chocolate cake and Fisherman’s Wharf traditional apple pie. Their menu is not the only thing that makes The Fisherman’s Wharf so sought after. Their interiors or should we say, their exteriors are what makes this place so popular. Tucked in a traditional South Indian terracotta tiled roof structure, the entire restaurant is laid out under a lovely vast shed. This way a diner can enjoy the beautiful landscape around him while dining. You can even sit outdoors under a breezy sky. Décor of fishing boat, shells and fish net is ideal for a coastal restaurant. The place is on the pricier side so watch out for that.
