pretty good ambience with moderate rates. this place carries the pure essence of mangaluru. i ordered chicken thali with ghee roast for a quick lunch. the food was good but what i liked the most is the feel you get here. unlike machali and girimanjas, you will get time to finish yourlunchwithout people staring at you, waiting for their turn to come.

crab ghee roast😍
kudlas favourite and most loved place "shettylunchhome", brings to us the most yummiest and flavour-filled crab ghee roast. the aroma itself is enough to get you drooling. the meat is really soft and juicy, soaked in oodles of ghee and masala. the essence of the ghee roast masala is spread out all over the crab, making each part of it finger lickin' gooood!! topped of with cashew, this dish can be best eaten with butter naan or thali (meals)
i would also recommend the chicken ghee roast and fish fry out here. this place is the best for some authentic mangalorean food.
for many food lovers, this place is an emotion💕

the best of karnataka on a platter! on the occasion of kannada rajyotsava, we visited the famous shettylunchhome in mangalore. had the chicken and seafood thalis, the flavours sing to your taste buds and the quantities will make you unable to walk out after. 🙈

this is definitely a hyped up space. last week we had ourlunchthere. first of all there were not many waiters to take order, so it took almost 15 mins to place the order. and then it took 30 more mins to serve the food. but the worst thing was taste of food. we ordered chicken ghee roast, fish fry, fish masala, fish thali, chicken thali and prawn sukka. chicken ghee roast never tasted so bad. it was hard and had no flavour except too much ghee was poured. fish items were smelly as well and for a moment we thought as if we ordered to a road side fish stall. prawn sukka had only ground coconut taste. only thing which was good was rice and fish/chicken curry that came along with thali. please try to avoid this place, and don't be cheated by the hype created around it.

shettylunchhome...worst experience from the staff and management using insulting language, they took my order and served the food after 25mts and switched off all lights inside the restaurant immediately after serving. and when i asked they told its closing time if you want you eat or else leave after giving payment. i just managed to wash hands with mobile tourch light. if it was closing time they should not have taken the order or must have managed to switch on any light atleast to complete the food. very much bad experience during an xmas night.

shettylunchhome is a place that has every mangalorean's heart. the food served here is authentic to the city's coastal vibe while the seating gives you a glimpse of an old world charm. the staff here is extremely polite and service is quick; which makes it an even better eating out experience.

coming to the food; we ordered a seafood thali to get a tiny bit of all of their dishes that they had to offer.
the seafood thali had the following items-
•squid ghee roast
•anjal tawa fry(kingfish)
•clamps curry
•dried fish chutney
•sandige( crackers)
•rasam
•sabji
•pickle
•buttermilk
•rice
•prawn curry
•neer dosa

all the items on the plattter screamed coastal flavours; with their generous coconut flavour andbthe freshness of the sea. my absolute favourite had to be the squid ghee roast; which just melted in your mouth!

all in all; the dining experience at shettylunchhome was an absolute treat! it's a definite must visit if authentic mangalorean flavours is what you're looking for

i m a big fan of anupam’s coast to coast located in bangalore. i was not aware that shettylunchhouse was also part of anupam’s, till i paid a visit this time.
we were here forlunchlast week. tried their fish thali, kingfish tawa fry, prawns rava fry, crab ghee roast, neer dosa, veg meals, kori roti, mango lassi. loved everything we had from here. prawns rawa fry was super crisp and tasted fresh and yumm. the crab ghee roast had the perfect rich ghee roast masala. both the meals were delicious. the fish thali had variety of fish preparations, unlike the usual one fish curry in a thali. kori roti was so good here, it’s a must have just like everything else we had!
service was good too.

growing up in mangalore, there were few, if any, restaurants that served local cuisines (the three major being the konkana, the bunt and the catholic) that one could recommend to non mangaloreans. located across the road from don bosco hall (the home of konkan natak sabha, a cultural bastion of the konkani catholic community), shettylunchhome single handedly revolutionized the food landscape of mangalore. serving delicacies in the tulu/bunt style of cooking, the restaurant specializes in sea food. among the best bets here are the fish thali, bangude (mackerel) tawa fry, bolenjere (silver fish) rawa fry, neer dosas, and the all popular chicken ghee roast, a firey red semi gravy chicken dish, dripping with the goodness of ghee. 

i can, with confidence, few restaurants have lived up to high quality standards consistently like shettylunchhome has. everytime i travel back to bangalore, the owners are kind enough to pack a tub of ghee roast well enough to survive a nuclear holocaust. the restaurant is an evergreen favourite for both locals and tourists alike. 

pics: mackerel/bangude tawa masala, silver fish/ bolenjere rawa fry, special sea food thali (anjali/kingfish masala fry, pickle, butter milk, dry prawns chutney, sol kodi/punapuli saaru, vegetable, marwai/clam sukka, squid ghee roast, prawns curry, with red rice and meet dosa in the center)

shettylunchhome is one of the recommended places to try some authentic mangalorean food. on my last visit to mangalore last weekend we paid a visit to the place and were fairly impressed. we tried kori rotti and bangude pulimunchi with neer dose.
kori (chicken curry) and rotti (dried pieces of rotti - a mangalore delicacy) is the best one i ever had and i strongly recommend it 👌👌👌👌👌
bangude (mackerel) pulimunchi (mangalore style curry) was yummy to and goes well with neer dose. 👌👌👌👌

shetty's have two sections, i really loved the ambiance of the non-ac section as it is more open, airy and properly lit. they also have an ac section at the back.

having chicken ghee roast from the place of its origin is all together an amazing experience! many restaurants have tried to replicate this dish and none of them could ever get close to the lip smacking taste that @shettylunchhome could produce.
chicken ghee roast is basically huge chunks of chicken cooked in a decent amount of ghee and luscious masala made with the perfect combination of spices. neer dosa and chicken ghee roast is the deadliest combination ever🔥never miss out trying this dish during your visit to the shettylunchhome

we are from agra and have come to mangalore for vacations. had heard so much about shettylunchhome finally had dinner here today.
mr. shetty knew my father in law as they were classmates since mr. shetty is no more his daughter ms. uma and his son-in-law were more than welcoming to us.
now lets talk about the food.
in drinks, i ordered virgin mojito which was very refreshing,
in starters, we ordered chicken malai tikka which was just delicious.
in main course, my husband ordered the fish thali as he is a lover of sea food as per him each n every item on the plate was just lip smacking. his favorite from the thali was squid ghee roast. the servings in the thali were quite generous. two people can easily share one thali.
myself ordered chicken ghee roast with neer dosa. it was out of the world.
all and all it was a great meal just the way it should be for anyone.
thank you ms. uma and mr. harish for taking care of us.
100% recommend to visit this place. should be on the "to do list" for anyone visiting mangalore.

sorry didn't take pictures of any of the food items :(

ghee roast king, the original inventor of the authentic cuisine with mellow environment and surroundings a perfect place forlunchor dinner

one of the best seafood thali i’ve ever tasted! best place forlunchwith family. nothing more to say than the food quality and quantity they serve 😍 the thali consisted of squid, seashells, fish, veg, dosa and rice and other things.
price: rs 380

this place should be called shittylunchhome. overly priced n the worst quality ever. the garlic naan tastwd like rubber n needed two people to tear it apart. the butter chicken tasted like dessert and the chicken biryani was insipid. not at all recommended!!!!
