Masala Restaurant, Visakhapatnam
Masala is an authentic Andhra restaurant in Visakhapatnam that we strongly recommend. If you want to binge on sea food blended in Andhra spices, then Masala is a good choice. On Sundays you’ll have to wait in a queue, but since we had arrived early we were lucky to be seated at a table.
Our lunch at Masala consisted of Tavva Vanjaram, Crab Fry, Prawn Biryani and buttermilk. Tavva Vanjaram, a deep fried fish was very well done, the Crab Fry even better, with the Andhra masalas adding a zing to your meal.
The Prawn Biryani was more than enough for a couple, though personally I wish the biryani was a little more fluffy and the prawns had less masalas on them. You’ll have to clear the debris of masalas from the prawns to bite into them. The buttermilk was strictly okay, but it went well to douse the spices.
The staff was courteous even in a busy and packed restaurant. I watched the diners throw their whims, but the staff seemed to have a genuine smile on their faces and that was more than enough to return to this restaurant to eat well and to be served well.
A meal for two would be around Rs. 500/- inclusive of VAT and service charges.
