Hotel Opal

Hotel Opal was suggested to me by one of my cousins.. who is a frequent traveler. We were on our way to konkan via kolhapur.. where we decided halt for lunch. Hotel Opal is famous for it's local cuisine specially non vegetarian dishes. But at the same time, you will get quality vegetarian food also. So we had ordered Mutton masala and Chicken fry along with famous Tamda and pandhra rassa. One of the highlight of the restaurant was.. they serve you nonstop dahi kanda which is unique. Being one of famous restaurants of kolhapur.. Service had to be prompt along with quality. And as expected everything was just on point. We also had dal khichdi which was also delicious which made us thinking of coming back here again. So we came back again while we were returning back from konkan. So all n all with all due respect to other restaurants .. Hotel Opal .. is your only go to restaurant if you are traveling via kolhapur and also for the residents.

Opal in Kolhapur is one of the best for Kolhapuri mutton and its various preparations. The traditional food has been its main forte for past four decades now. This time we tested same old dishes Mutton fry , mutton Suka , mutton lonche pickle, mutton Kolhapuri and many more. The Lal Russa and Pandora Russa has been same all these thirty years or so. Bhakari with these dishes tastes best. Glad the taste has remained unchanged all these years.

I tried special thali. It was avg experience. Not sure what they added in food. After meal, lot of gas & trouble to all 4 members who had meal there. Not sure why. But not good experience. The best part it remain open till 4.00 PM for the lunch.

This property is under renovation the management has displayed a board outside. The mobile connectivity is not perfect the wi fi by hotel has limited connectivity in certain areas only. Food quality is still good Stay okay with the price paid

I have been there in the last weekend with my family to enjoy Non veg food especially Mutton. High expectations converted into totally mood off due to served Mutton was not fresh.. I have been asked to captain and he said we are preparing mutton at 11 am then we are keeping in refrigerator and as per need we are using it. My question was if you are using that mutton what else if it is not prepared today and he didn't have satisfactory answer. Just want to tell you opal management's the foodie like us get to know about food and try to accept mistake instead of lying and try to avoid customer satisfaction.. The waiter approx. Age 50+ unneccesarily trying to force to take new dishesh even notified about food. Then he took another trial dish for us and that mutton was good when I said this mutton seems to be fresh but not earlier dishesh then management said again second jhoot like all mutton is same... Please make sure if you know the mutton quality after taste immediately notify to management and not to order any new one as they are not ready to satisfied customer and just trying to make fool. :( Even it was my third visit I am rating opal low.
