Chilika Dhaba, located near Chilika Lake in Barkul, Odisha, is a well-known roadside eatery famous for its delicious Odia-style seafood, especially crab masala, prawn curry and fish fry. Its simple, rustic setting and convenient location along NH-5 have made it a favorite among travelers. Over the years, it has built a strong reputation for serving hearty portions of flavorful, locally inspired dishes. However, recent feedback points to a decline in quality and service, possibly due to changes in management. Despite this, the original outlet continues to hold sentimental value and remains a popular stop. They have got a dhaba kind of setup and a separate air-conditioned family section. Ambience is kind of okeish. We ordered lime soda, american corn, mushroom pakoda and prawn dry fry. To be honest, food was way too oily and overuse of spices ruined the actual taste of mushroom. Prawn preparation was somewhat better, cannot complain much about that. But there was no ‘wow’ feeling in that. The overall experience was kind of mixed. Got to know that the brand has expanded to cities like Bhubaneswar, Puri and Bangalore, though these branches have received mixed reviews. Overall verdict- not worth the hype and will somehow recommend only for ‘over spicy’ seafood lovers. Meal type: Dinner Price per person: ₹200–400 Food: 3 Service: 2 Atmosphere: 2
