Our Story
Bringing the Flavors of Konkan and Maharashtra to Matawan
The Konkan Restaurant
At the Konkan Restaurant Matawan NJ, we bring the distinctive flavors of India’s western coast and Maharashtra to the local dining scene. Our menu is inspired by the food traditions of the Konkan region, where seafood, coconut, and aromatic spices have shaped a cuisine known for its depth, variety, and unmistakable coastal character.
Konkan is celebrated for its seafood diversity and distinctive use of coconut. From rich curries to flavorful seafood preparations, coconut and carefully balanced spices form the foundation of many traditional dishes.
We believe food has no boundaries. It travels across regions, connects cultures, and introduces people to flavors they may have never experienced before. That belief inspired us to bring the flavors of Konkan to Matawan, NJ, while staying connected to the traditions behind the cuisine.
Our menu also celebrates Maharashtra through Maharashtrian specialties, Malvani and Kolhapuri preparations, traditional snacks, and regional favorites. Alongside these, guests can enjoy biryanis, tandoori dishes, vegetarian favorites, street food, desserts, and refreshing drinks.
Explore our menuOur goal is simple: to let guests discover Authentic Konkan Cuisine, explore the flavors of Maharashtra, and enjoy a menu rooted in regional Indian traditions while offering something for every table.
From the Coast
Konkan cuisine has a character all its own. The region’s coastal setting has shaped a culinary tradition built around seafood, coconut, spices, and bold, balanced flavors.
That inspiration can be seen throughout our menu. Guests can discover dishes such as Tisrya Masala, Stuffed Pomfret, Pomfret Fry, Surmai, Bombil, Shrimp Fry, Crab Masala, and Malvani seafood curries, prepared with flavors and ingredients associated with the Konkan coast.
For those who enjoy meat, our menu also features Malvani, Kolhapuri, and Saoji-style chicken and mutton curries, bringing different regional traditions of Maharashtra to the table.
