Founded in 2017, Meenavan Unavagam was born from a simple yet powerful idea — to serve true coastal seafood, just the way it is cooked in fishermen’s homes along the shores of India.
The name Meenavan means fisherman, and our journey is deeply rooted in their tradition, hard work, and respect for the sea. From the very beginning, our focus has been on fresh catch, traditional recipes, and honest flavours that celebrate the ocean.
Every morning, our seafood is carefully selected to ensure quality and freshness. Our chefs follow age-old coastal cooking methods, blending authentic spices with passion and care. No shortcuts — only genuine taste passed down through generations.
What started as a humble seafood kitchen has grown into a trusted destination for seafood lovers. Over the years, families, friends, and travellers have made Meenavan Unavagam a place to gather, celebrate, and enjoy unforgettable meals by the sea.
Today, as we continue our journey, our promise remains unchanged:
fresh seafood, traditional taste, and heartfelt hospitality — served with the warmth of coastal culture.
Meenavan Unavagam is not just a restaurant.
It is a story of the sea, the fishermen, and the love for real seafood.
