Well after seeing positive reviews I visited the place. Ambience 2/5 the place was stinking.Food 2/5, I ordered Tawa fish fry on the recommendation of staff by it lacked in basic spicy forget about the taste. The fish was just crispy no salt no chillie.Malabar Parotta(2/5) was very hard and stretchy.Chicken Chettinad (3/5) very small pieces of chicken and a bowl full of gravy.Overall below average ambience and foodWont recommend it!

Nice you will get south indian dishes. You will get real taste of south Indian cusine

Its a shabby setup but the food is good. We ordered chicken ghee roast, Nadaan crab masala, Malabar paratha and appam. Chicken ghee roast was the best and would suggest to try this out. Others were average. The service is very prompt.

Southy food was very good.. ambience is also good and needs a minor refurbish of small wears and tears..

Great food and service. All the items in the menu are great. The ambience is also quite and peaceful

Nice place. Ambience is good. Staff is supportive. Up for vegetarian food.We ordered chilli fried idli and paneer chilli fry for starters.Followed by main course: vegetable chettinadu and Nilgiri vegetable korma. Korma I had in Kerala few years ago so was a must South Indian dish for me. chettinadu was recommended by Restro staff.Do try appam... it’s a kind of break really soft and chewy... Malabar parota and kothu parota were nice too.

If youre looking for authentic south Indian flavours this is the place to come. I have been here a couple of times and tried different things in each visit and I have to say that the thing that stands out is the food. Every item on the menu be it the Chicken Chettinad or the Kozhi Malli Saaru (Chicken Soup) or the Stew or the Paruppu Vada or anything really has its unique flavour and literally smells of authenticity. I can totally imagine that this is (more or less) how the food would taste had I actually had it in a restaurant in south India.Even within this culinary goodness a few dishes stood out to me; I would highly recommend that patrons try the Kozhi Malli Saaru, appam and Malabar fish curry. Furthermore there is so much on the menu that you can easily visit 4-5 times and never have the same thing twice.I liked ambience too, it is relaxed and mellow and the the dining area is bathed in yellow light. And to me this is perfect for winding down after a busy working week, makes me slow down and appreciate the finer things :)Service is an area where I thought things can be improved, but not by much, the staff was prompt in responding to requests and the place is usually not crowded so you get your share of attention. Speed of service is decent as well. I would however expect that the waiters be dressed in shoes instead of sandals/chappals though.Two can have a decent meal here at around a 100 bucks and the fact that Zomato Gold works here and that makes the deal even more sweet. So in terms of cost too this is an okay place.All in all I like Coastal Reef for its authentic flavours and pleasing ambience. The food is great and it feels good to sit in for half an hour or so and slow down. I see myself coming in to this place for many times to come.

Baani square now can truly be termed as a foodies hub with various dining and home delivery options from shakes, pizzas, mughlai, oriental, lebanese, seafood, desserts, a restrobar and Waffle Joints.This time it was our tastebuds which guided us to this seafood joint Coastal Reef.We tried the below dishes :Meen Poluchathu : Fresh and good quality sole fish wrapped in a banana leaf. Tangy flavour.Mutton Sukka : Soft mutton pieces perfectly spiced with a good tasteAppam : Nicely fermented but a little oily for my preferenceMalabar Paratha : Just the way it should be , layered and softMalabar Fish Curry : Basa fish which again was fresh and tasted relay well with Appam prepared with a yellow pastePaneer Dosa : Was a disappointment as it was soggy and sambhar was coldChicken stew: This was the showstealer of all. With the taste of curry leaf , mustard seeds and coconut milk, this was the best chicken stew I have had for a long period. Yummy !Ambience : 4/5Food : 4/5Service : 4/5To conclude , Coastal reef has silent and relaxing interiors, authentic south Indian taste full of aroma and spices.

I often viisit this place. Great food especially the Sea food . Very fresh and hygienic all the time. The staff members especially Mr Rajan are very courteous and take special care of all the guests. Parkin is no issue at all. Love this place.

Great taste of chicken chettinad. Giving 4 as you can always find a better taste where this dish belongs to. But very much closer when served along with malabar paratha.Prafict all veg coastal reef

Ok food from perspective of North indians. Go experiment it. South Indians may like it better. Ok ambience. Pathetic service. Order paneer dosa, they served prawn dosa. Terrible terrible restaurant. Stay away.

Authentic tasty Goan food. Do try the Fish thali here

A perfect place for sea food. Enjoyed the ambience of the restaurant and also Baani square.Must try: Appam with Fish curry.

Very bad, portion sizes are so small, over priced.

This place is in Bank Square in Gurgaon. The food is authentic South Indian and really really good. Its just the food that makes me visit Coastal Reef repeatedly. However, the service is a little slow but the food makes up for it.The ambience is sort of old school but not that bad. Place is good to visit with family.

Great taste of chicken chettinad. Giving 4 as you can always find a better taste where this dish belongs to. But very much closer when served along with malabar paratha.

Smelly food. Waiters are not friendly.

Amazing taste and hygiene.. Cordial staff.. In love with the taste..highly recommended! Dont go by the negative reviews..

Amazing food! amazing menu! amazing service!

Liked the food.but pricey

Amazing food

One of the good non veg restaurant...

Its an awesome restaurant for coastal food lovers great taste and variety of every kind of fish and chicken. Lovely ambience. Kindly book your table and go if you are a bigger group of people

Nice ambience but kindly work on quality of food so that it become tasty. Its not bad just above average can be worked upon.

Food is just too good at this place...love it every time I visit dere... chicken and mutton are just too good along with Kerala parantha and appam...cant get enough

Nice food good service

Worst taste and hefty price. Trust me, you get the same food for a lower price in many sub standard restaurants. Dont waste your money by trusting the fake reviews.

We have been there twice and tried their fish curry. Malabar Fish curry, etc. I personally didnt like the fish curry. Probably i was expecting authentic fish curry that Im used to eating in southern part of the country. The chicken ghee roast in starters is good.

Good coastal cuisine, a lot of good choices. Highly recommend the chicken ghee roast and the mutton liver dish. Also, the mutton dosa (ask for the masala separated) is quite special. The service is always cordial and kind.

Have been here couple of times. Okishh kinda place nothing fancy. Service is good.Food quality is ok.South India style food.

Great food, service staff pleasant, offered very good suggestions, well priced, good portiins

Good food

Delicious food and good ambience. However, surprisingly enough, not very crowded at lunch (good time for a little party 😀)

Loved the recipes, nicely managed. No complaints.. one of the few places where you get good seafood preparations

I will recommend to everyone who is looking for South Indian food.Its the best place to visit .The food is really really great.

Its a small eatery however the food is really good. Baani Square turns out to be quite a hangout too

Coastal reef south indian restaurant

Would have the madurai Biriyani anyday. A bit on the expensive side, but ambience and service makes up for it

This is heaven on earth for good loversNever had a tastier chicken Chettinad and mutton anywhere else. Order anything in chicken and mutton plus appam and Malabar Parantha.Beauiful ambience, perfect family dinner spot.Very good service.I visit it every single month

Average food and service. Had to remind the waiter to provide basic things like cutlery, chutney and sambar with dosa

We really like the taste of food. We had tawa fried fish (basa), appam and chicken chettinadu. All of them were quite good and we enjoyed the taste. We will be definitely revisiting this place.

I had to change my.rating as the standards have really dropped. Ordered our staple nellore.mushrooms from the baani square outlet, which was awful. When I complained he mumbled and asked what he wanted him to do about it like he could be bothered. Bad quality smd follow up bad service at those prices is just not done. Thumbs down

Food is good but a bit pricey compared to the place and ambience. Tried a ghee roast and appams

I like their subdued rustic decor...and more than that their food...awesome and authentic taste ...looking forward to try out new dish next time

Food was nice ..but AC was not working. So it was become wrost experience

Service and food could have been better. Madurai Britain, Appams, Non Veg Platter were awesome. But the Fish Fry was bad. It did not have the right masala for koliwada fish dish. He chicken stew soup was awesome as I ate in the house. Dosa could have been perfected. Service guys are nice but not attentive. A little attention to detail will be awesome.

Their seafood preparations are very good. We loved their prawn curry with appam. However the dish had only 6 prawns for ₹525 plus taxes. That was on the pricier side. Their crab soup is quite tasty. Rasam is complementary and tasted well.

Great authentic South Indian cuisine. Very balanced flavours. The only negative they dont give aplam with the lemon rice when ordered, but will surely go again there

Perfect for coastal eating

Excellent food and nearly authentic taste.Everything was right except they should offer rice that suits South Indian cuisine instead of basmati for all.

Food was awesome . The chef Mr Muthupandi has done a amazing job

Food was good..However the cleanliness, ambience, AC at the restaurant were not good..

Didnt enjoy the food... Being a keralite i know the real thing. So wasnt impressed much , the malabar paratha was just oil. Chicken was good. Fish was avg.Felt the prices were Definitely higher for the crampy space and ambience.Gave 2 stars just for the Worse service award. The waiter was arrogant, uninterested and had an attitude problem. Had to bloody remind him again and again. Never going here again.

One of my favourite restaurants for chicken Chetinad and prawns biryani :)

Giving them 5 stars for the absolutely yummy Sambar and Chutney which are very authentic like original South Indian fare. The masala dosa is nice, but the highlights are the Idli and the Vada, which again are very authentic. They dont however serve fast food throughout the day. If you want Dosa, Idli, Vada, then you have to order at breakfast time. For rest of the day they offer authentic full course meals. Definitely recommended if you are looking for genuine South Indian taste!

Very Poor service,Cooling is pathetic inside the restaurant,food is Ok

Very nice and yummy food with affordable rates very nive nd helping staff

Nice ambience, great food. We ordered more than what we can eat.

I can see quite a few positive reviews, but my experience was not that great. I ordered (for home delivery) appam and Puduvai prawn curry.The appam was good (but packaging was hastily done with the appam trapped between the container and the heat sealed cover). But thats ok given the taste was alright and it was was home deliveryBut the curry was among the bad tasing ones that i had. The salt was inadequate and the water was seterating from the curry. The prawn tasted very bland. All in all I may never take a chance again.

Awesome Kerala style food. Loved it.

Amazing food. Especially the chicken dosa. Will definitely visit again.

Best coastal cusine in Gurgaon. Amazing service too

3 to 4 month ago i have tried Machar Jhol from Coastal Reef because i was late from office and the only possible solution I found in swiggy is this restaurant...that was my best experience when I tasted the first bite of it. Since then i ordered only Machar Jhol only from coastal reef. But today i ordered Karaikudi Mutton Curry, just to give a try and this dish more tastier then last one. Kudos to the chef of coastal reef for such a tasty and craving dish.

Bad food and bad service... this is not authentic South Indian food. They have no clue of the real south india flavours.

Good south indian food... South Indian lovers can try...

Another at ‘foodies paradise’ Baani Square, Mayfield Garden, Sector 50, Gurugram,Perfect place for coastal cuisine; authentic south Indian taste full of aroma and spicesBeautiful ambience, excellent food and authentic taste with seafood its specialityNote:North Indian food lovers may find it bit different/spicy/food taste same in all curries

Best product of milk avelable here

Pathetic!....We ordered the Tawa fish from Swiggy...Fish was stale and they didnt provide any side salad. Wont order anything from here again.

Baga rocks

Had lunch here with team and all the stuff was great, specially Chicken Chettinad

Quality and delivery period of food has been going down day by day. Today ordered South India breakfast from them and they delayed the delivery as usual and sambar was sent which was cold as if somebody has pulled it out from refrigerator packed and sent across. When issue raised they sent the sambar again which was also after 1 hr when their place is just 10-15 mins away from my place. Delivery boy had lot of attitude and was rude both the time.

Great food, if you love And gratitude food this is the place to be.

This is for the ones who eat Halal meet... pls avoid Coastal Reef Reataurant in Baani Square & Galleria. They are serving PORK and the utensils, oil and the vessels used for PORK and other non veg items are the same. This not been updated in their menu, but updated in food panda and zomato.Halal meat eaters.. Pls Avoid Coastal Reef..

Small place in galleria with great food

Authentic south indian food! Amazing taste!

Too spicy. Not too many veg options.

Best place to have South Indian Food in Baani Square.

Today the diwali shopping day, a day to have fun and chill. So we headed straight to bani square near south city in gurgaon. We had been here before so today we really wanted have some good south Indian but seafood and non veg. Coastal reef is just super duper. Everything is different, very kerala. Spicy. We had the sole fish curry, chicken chetinad with appams and south Indian paratha. the chicken was spicy and in a slightly orange gravy with soft chunks. The fish was sole and boneless and mild. It has a slight sweetness and very interesting with raw mango. Both are great with appams that are crispy. The paratha or parotha are just a little too chewy for me as they are made of only plain white l flour. The ambience reminds you of all those kerala restaurants from the old days with distinct absence of the Jim reeves and Christmas songs. I kind of miss that. BTW the songs were always played though the year. Haha. I highly recommend the place.

Food bit pricey but portions are less

Tawa fried fish, amazing consistency. Love it every time

Bad experience, food was nt good at all

Great south Indian Non veg dishes. Crab soup is bloody awesoms

Authentic flavours . Appam Malabar parota is a treat to have.

The food was good except for the interiors, could spot a few flies around my table
