Dubki Vegetarian Menu
Twenty-two vegetarian dishes with prices — 44% of the menu at a beach-cliff venue better known for prawns and pork ribs.
Not an Afterthought
Most beach-cliff kitchens in North Goa treat vegetarians as an obligation: paneer tikka, a veg burger, fries. Dubki does something else. Fourteen of its starters are vegetarian, against eighteen non-vegetarian ones — and the veg section is where the kitchen does its most interesting work.
Look at what is actually there. Jackfruit scraped down until it reads like pulled meat. Goan xacutti masala — normally a slow-cooked pork or chicken curry base — folded into a mushroom samosa. Grated corn cooked into a Maharashtrian khees and served as chaat. Portuguese rissois of the kind Goan bakeries still make. A dim sum skin dyed with blue pea flower.
None of that is standard vegetarian beach food. A vegetarian table here is not ordering around the menu; it is ordering the best of it.

The Five Best Veg Dishes
None of them is paneer-by-default.
Mushroom Xacutti Samosa Cone
Goan xacutti masala, normally a meat-curry base, worked into a mushroom filling inside a cone samosa.
₹545Veg starterKathal Khurchan Kulcha
Jackfruit shredded until the texture reads like pulled meat. Best value substantial veg plate.
₹475Flat breadCream Cheese Dumplings
Blue pea flower dyed dim sum skin with chilli and cream cheese. The prettiest thing on the menu.
₹445Veg dim sumCorn Cheese Rissois
Portuguese-descended croquettes still found in Goan bakeries. Easiest dish to put in front of a group.
₹525Veg starterDal Bukhara, Lachha Parantha
Black urad dal simmered overnight with butter and cream. The one veg dish that works as a full meal alone.
₹595Veg mainBhutta Khees Chaat
Grated corn cooked to a soft Maharashtrian khees, reworked as chaat. The least familiar dish here.
₹545Veg starterA vegetarian meal for two
Two small plates to share (₹1,070), a vegetarian main (₹595) and a dessert (₹445) comes to ₹2,110 before the 10% service charge and taxes — roughly ₹2,430 on the bill, before drinks. A vegetarian table is not meaningfully cheaper here: veg small plates sit at the same ₹545 as the kebabs, and only the two ₹795 mains push a non-veg bill higher.
Dietary Notes & Caveats
Five things the printed menu will not tell you, and which matter enough to ask about at the table.
Vegan is not marked
No dish carries a vegan label. The Penang Curry with tofu croquettes and the Peri Peri Cauliflower look closest, but Thai curries frequently include fish sauce or shrimp paste. This needs confirming, not assuming.
Cheese is everywhere
Seven of the 14 vegetarian starters are built on paneer, brie, halloumi or cheese fillings. If you are avoiding dairy the usable section shrinks to roughly five dishes.
Caesar dressing
The Caesar Salad is offered vegetarian, but classic Caesar dressing contains anchovy. Worth checking which version the kitchen makes.
Jain and no-onion-no-garlic
Not indicated anywhere in published menu information. Call ahead if this applies to you rather than asking at a busy table.
Shared fryers and grills
Standard in kitchens of this size, and the menu runs heavy on deep-fried seafood and pork. Strict vegetarians who care about separation should ask directly.
Nachos and Caesar are dual
Both are listed as veg or chicken. Specify clearly when ordering, and check the plate before it reaches the table.
